The whole family is reborn, and their five-year-old child becomes the darling of the entire capital.
Chapter 117 is a heartless and ungrateful person.
"Baby?" Mu Yunchen was curious about the baby she was talking about, so he quickly moved closer to her and asked, "Tell me more about it."
Mu Yunchen reached out and straightened the crooked beaded flower. Suddenly, he noticed a tear on her clothes. "Did you fall when you went out?"
He had just seen Yan Shanshan pull her out.
In her past life, the Yan family was actually quite unremarkable, aside from some messy gossip circulating among these aristocratic families. Furthermore, in her past life, Yan Shanshan had served in the military, under her second sister's command.
Therefore, there is no major problem with his good relationship with Xixi.
But when he saw that Xiao Yuxi's clothes were torn, he belatedly realized that before Princess Lanyue's divorce, the second young lady of the Yan family seemed to have a very bad reputation.
"Mmm!" Xiao Yuxi nodded vigorously, gesturing with her hand to show the motion of herself rolling down. "Just like that, I rolled down, 'glug glug glug.' There are holes in the grass here, and they're covered up, so you can't see them at all before you fall in!"
"Where's Yan Shanshan? When she dragged you out, she didn't have a maid with you?" Mu Yunchen had no recollection of how he always made Xixi dirty and bruised when he took her out to play.
"Sister Shanshan went to find her mother, so I just left." Xiao Yuxi blinked, not thinking there was anything wrong with it.
"Don't hang out with her too much next time, she's not very bright." Mu Yunchen subtly sowed discord.
Little Yu Xi puffed out her cheeks and looked at him, "Brother Potato doesn't have a brain."
Mu Yunchen tapped her head with his finger. "Where's that stupid parrot?"
“Bu Bu isn’t stupid! He went out.” After saying that, Xiao Yuxi quietly tugged at Mu Yunchen’s sleeve and whispered, “After I fell, Bu Bu stole a box and took it with him.”
Xiao Yuxi looked at Mu Yunchen obediently and blinked her eyes; she wasn't stupid.
She felt that the people she heard were bad people. This was the Yanhou Mansion, and the voices were those of two older sisters, not Shanshan's mother.
But this is the Yanhou Mansion, which must have been built by its owner, so the male voice must belong to the Yanhou she had never seen before.
And then there's Yao Chuan, whom she met after she came out. She'd heard from her aunt that he was in charge of all sorts of cases, so his presence in that underground secret room meant there was definitely something wrong with the Yan family.
That's why she told Yaochuan that the room was full of gold and silver jewelry.
Moreover, that person said that all the blood had been drained, which means that Brother Xiao Xian had been captured by these bad guys.
She just didn't know what Brother Xiao Xian was doing, or whether others could know about it. If others couldn't know, what would she do? So she couldn't directly tell Brother Yao Chuan what she had heard.
During this period, Yingrui read too many storybooks to her, and Xiaoyuxi's mind was full of conspiracy theories.
"The box?" Mu Yunchen was suddenly taken aback.
"Mmm, so much gold, so shiny, so much, it fills the whole room!" Xiao Yuxi spread her arms wide and drew a huge circle exaggeratedly.
A whole room full of gold?
In his previous life, the national treasury was empty, and Lord Yan even complained about being poor during the morning court session, saying that all the shops he made money from had been burned down by Princess Lanyue, and he had to pay a lot of compensation. Now, his family lives entirely on his salary.
They even went so far as to set up a secret room to hide the money?
It really is surprising.
"You brought out a box step by step?" A cold glint flashed in Mu Yunchen's eyes. Their Mu family was charging ahead, but these people were really stingy misers, hiding in the back and not contributing anything.
When the Mu family got into trouble, everyone rushed out to kick them while they were down.
I should find an opportunity to talk to my second brother and find out where Yan Hou actually made his money. The taxes in Yue Kingdom are very high, so I wonder how much this man has embezzled.
"They grabbed me and ran away." Xiao Yuxi pouted, feeling wronged.
"It's alright," Mu Yunchen patted the little girl's head, "Bubu will fly home. He knows the way."
Mu Yunchen sounded extremely guilty about his ability to find his way around.
In my past life, it seemed that every time I released this parrot, it would take a long time to find it again.
But they can definitely come back.
I don't know how many days it will take to get back.
Sure enough, when Xiao Yuxi got home, she didn't see her Bubu.
Xiao Yuxi sobbed as she whispered this to her grandmother.
"Brother Potato said that Bubu knows the way. Why isn't Bubu at home? Did Bubu get lost? Will we never see Bubu again?" Little Yu Xi huddled in her grandmother's arms, tears streaming down her face.
The old lady hugged her tenderly, wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and turned to the maid beside her, "Who is this Bubu that Xixi is talking about?"
"It's a parrot kept in the shop downstairs of the Mu family. It can talk like a human. A while ago, the Third Young Master brought it back and gave it to his cousin."
"Don't cry, Xixi. Grandma will buy you another parrot, okay?" The old lady hugged her and coaxed her gently.
"No, I only want Bubu! I don't want any other parrots! They're not as smart as Bubu!" Xiao Yuxi hugged her grandmother's neck and buried her head in her grandmother's neck.
She acted coquettishly, sounding wronged.
"Then let's buy a parrot as smart as Bubu, okay?" the old lady coaxed gently.
"No~" Xiao Yuxi refused, her voice trembling with tears.
"Madam." Liu Xiang stood to the side, brewed the tea, and placed it beside the old lady.
"Is Aunt Xu still burning?" the old lady asked, looking at her.
She actually preferred to be served by Aunt Xu. Aunt Xu was perceptive and would arrange everything well, and she rarely gossiped in front of her.
This Liu Xiang usually loves to slack off and always hides in her own yard claiming to have a fever.
He seems like someone who doesn't like to cause trouble.
In her previous life, she was the first to leave after the Mu family's misfortune, abandoning even her own child and leaving him with the Mu family.
He is a heartless and ungrateful person.
"Reporting to Madam, Consort Xu's fever has been quite high these past few days, and she probably won't be able to come and serve me for the time being. If Madam feels that I am not serving her well, then I will go and ask Consort Min to come." Liu Xiang lowered her head and said in a low voice, sounding aggrieved.
"Never mind, she's even more of a headache." The old lady pinched her brow, looking at the little girl in her arms who had stopped crying and was now lost in thought, seemingly pondering something.
I couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Kids this age are so cute, I wonder what they're thinking about all day that makes them so engrossed.
Xiao Yuxi blinked nervously and buried her head in her grandmother's arms.
Aunt Liu's voice sounded just like the voice of the first woman she encountered inside.
The only difference was that one person was cold and aloof, while Aunt Liu was trembling and frail.
