“Make them leave this instant!” the head guard ordered. Two guards promptly came up and grabbed the kicking and screaming Qiao Wenjuan without any niceties, dragging her out of Pear Blossom Alley.

Qiao Wenjuan screamed her voice hoarse, fire spitting from her eyes. She kept cursing, “Qiao Mu, you cursed wench, how dare you treat your real aunt like this! You’re utterly heartless and immoral! You’ll get your just desserts!”

The guards of the City Lord’s Estate were evidently experienced in dealing with unreasonable women like her, so they directly stuffed a ball of dirty cloth in her mouth, cutting off her shrieks.

The guards jointly lifted her without regard for her gender and tossed her onto the donkey cart.

The guards then ushered the members of the Wei Family onto the cart one after another before driving the cart toward the western district.

As for Wen Ruwan, they were much more courteous and purposefully found a mild-mannered pony for her to ride by herself.

The whole Wei Family left while cursing, screaming, and bawling.

After Qiao Mu returned home with her hand around the pheasant’s neck, she tossed the commotion at the City Lord’s Estate to the back of her mind.

“Caw caw caw caw!”

“If you call again, I will pluck all of your feathers and turn you into a naked chicken!” Qiao Mu coldly threatened, uncaring for whether the pheasant understood or not.

The pheasant really stopped screeching and pitifully cawed with a flap of its wings.

“Heh, what could you possibly be unsatisfied with?” Qiao Mu icily glanced at the pheasant. “I’m the one who should feel ashamed! Have you seen anyone who summoned a feather-shedding chicken with a summoning talisman? I must be the first in history!”

Qiao Mu got angrier the more she spoke…

“Caw caw caw!!!” A certain defiant pheasant flapped its wings and spat water out.

The child cuffed its head without holding back. “If you spit everywhere again, I’m going to chop your head off and kick it around like a ball!”

A certain pheasant felt that it was incredibly tragic. Do your parents know how vicious you are, child?

“Do you think you’re awesome just because you can spit water? I can easily find a performer on the street for that! They can even spit fire!” Qiao Mu irritably snapped. Then, even she herself found herself comical.

This chicken… perhaps it also felt incredibly feeble and unwilling when she summoned it!

“Listen to me, immediately go back when its time. Be more careful the next time I use a summoning talisman. Don’t randomly come to join in the fun, got it? Forget it this time, I’ll forgive you! Let’s get along and gather and part on good terms! Hurry and leave tomorrow and don’t come back.” She aimed to be a great talisman practitioner that summoned fierce beasts like lions, tigers, bears, or leopards! What should she do with herself by summoning a chicken?!

When the steward, Chang Zai, opened the door, he was immediately met with his stoic little miss clutching a pheasant in her hand and muttering nonstop.

The beauty of this scene could not be described! Chang Zai’s mouth twitched as he opened the door wide and received her inside. “Miss, Sir and Madam said that you haven’t had breakfast yet. Do you want some now?”

Qiao Mu shook her head. “No need, Steward Chang. I’m going to head to Elderly Lady’s room. Is Mother Xu there?”

Speaking of Mother Xu, Chang Zai wanted to give her some tears of sympathy.

Not only was Mother Xu in charge of going out to buy things and miscellaneous tasks like sweeping the courtyard, but she also had to serve Elderly Lady when she had time. She was engulfed in work like a spinning top.

“Elderly Lady doesn’t need much attending. Serving her three meals a day and brewing a pot of tea for her will suffice,” Qiao Mu coolly said as she walked. “Having three meals a day is decent in a time like this already. Who needs so many formalities?”
