392 Kill It and Eat It!
She had thought it through. She would set up a chance meeting for her Yan’er once Prince Zhan Yun left the residence.
She also believed that once Prince Zhan Yun saw her Yan’er, he would no longer care about other women. Who in the world could compare to her daughter?
“I’ll definitely dress you up beautifully tomorrow. I’m sure Prince Zhan Yun won’t be able to walk when he sees you.”
Yu Yan’er pursed her lips and spat through gritted teeth, “Good, very good.”
There was a taste of blood stuck in her throat, and she could not help sneering in her heart.
This is my mother?! She’s dressing her daughter up beautifully to send her to a man!
“Mother, I’m a little tired and want to rest. I’ll be ready tomorrow.”
A smile bloomed on Madam Yu’s face. “Alright, alright. I’m relieved,” she replied and turned to leave.
Yu Yan’er stood on the stone bridge and watched as the red koi swam leisurely under.
She held the white rabbit in one arm and caressed its soft white fur with the other.
Sneering, she asked the maidservant walking over, “Cui’er, why am I not even comparable to these little fishes?”
“Miss, you don’t have to care about what Madam said. Tomorrow…”
Cui’er felt wronged on her young mistress’s behalf. She was a good mistress who spoke gently to the servants. How did she end up with such materialistic parents?
“Let’s go out and get some fresh air tomorrow.”
Her mother asked her to go because her father wanted her to. The consequences would be unbearable if she did not appear in front of Prince Zhan Yun.
She reached out and handed the white rabbit to Cui’er.
“Heh, Cui’er, braise it in soy sauce tonight.”
“What?” Cui’er widened her eyes and looked at her mistress.
Am I hearing things? Miss has been raising these rabbits for many years. There are more and more rabbits in the courtyard. I’ve only seen her send them to others; she never eats rabbit meat.
What’s the matter with Miss today? She actually wants to eat braised rabbit meat?
“Don’t you think I’m just rabbit?” Yu Yan’er looked at the rabbit Cui’er took from her seriously and asked softly.
“When you like it, you’ll feed it the freshest grass. Play with it occasionally when you’re in a good mood. But when you need it, you can kill it mercilessly and eat it!”
She narrowed her eyes when she said the last few words.
Her mother would never know how her daughter’s heart bled when she said she wanted to send her to Prince Zhan Yun!
“Miss… Miss…” Cui’er gulped in fear and looked at her mistress uneasily.
I’ve never seen Miss . She even spoke in such a terrifying tone. She must be really disappointed in the Grand Preceptor and Madam. I’m just a servant, but I’d rather die if my parents treated me like that too!
“You may leave.” Yu Yan’er did not want to speak and waved at Cui’er.
Her heart had already turned cold, and she no longer cared about her mother’s words. After all, she had grown up hearing her mother say that no matter how powerful a woman was, it was pointless—she still had to rely on men!
Sometimes, she wondered why women had to rely on men.
