The whole family is reborn, and their five-year-old child becomes the darling of the entire capital.
Chapter 36 My name is Yu Xi, Mu Yu Xi
Mu Sikuang stopped in his tracks as he headed to the backyard, looking down at the little girl in front of him.
uncle?
The little girl's face gradually merged with the somewhat aloof face from his previous life, their features remarkably similar.
He did remember the first time he saw her. She was standing behind Mu Yunchao in a red dress, with a cold and aloof expression. He thought she was Yunchao's sweetheart, but little did he know that she was the child of his sister who had run away from her arranged marriage.
Even the prestigious Mu family can produce such a ridiculous situation as a fake heiress.
It's true that they didn't care enough about this child.
Xiao Yuxi's smile gradually faded, replaced by a hint of helplessness. Her uncle looked at her with a frightening expression, as if he were looking through her and observing someone else; his face was cold.
She is afraid.
Seemingly realizing he had frightened the little girl, Mu Sikuang softened his tone, half-squatted down, and asked as gently as possible, "Have you given her a name yet?"
Xiao Yuxi nodded, "My name is Yuxi, Mu Yuxi."
Mu Yuxi?
Mu Sikuang rubbed her forehead. In his previous life, he had never heard her add the Mu family surname before her name until his death.
These kids know they need to start fooling people from a young age.
Yes, Mu Sikuang had guessed from the day he was reborn that he wasn't the only one who had been reborn. Especially since Mu Yunchao was pressing the officials in the court step by step, Yunnan directly presented the latest military map, and although Yun Chen was putting on a good act, she was no longer as clingy to him as she was when they were children. Most importantly, his wife no longer cared about him.
"Good name."
Little Yu Xi was very happy to be praised. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at her uncle and said in a clear voice, "It was my second sister who named it! I think it sounds nice too!"
"Your second sister is wonderful."
"Xixi thinks it's great too!"
Mu Sikuang found it amusing. Even knowing what she looked like when she grew up, he still found it hard to connect the little girl in front of him with that girl.
That's true, what child isn't adorable?
"Are you going to the banquet?" Mu Sikuang asked gently.
Yingrui, the maid standing to the side, dared not breathe and pretended to be invisible.
"Mmm!" Xiao Yuxi's voice was clear and bright, with a natural sense of intimacy.
This pleased Mu Sikuang greatly. He knew that this little girl was very afraid of strangers, but she was not afraid of him at all, which made him quite happy.
Actually, Xiao Yuxi is a little shy around strangers, but she also knows that her uncle, aunt, and grandmother are a family. Her aunt and grandmother are so good to her, so her uncle must not be a bad person. As long as she behaves well, her uncle will definitely not dislike her.
Xiao Yuxi encouraged herself and tried her best to act like an outgoing baby to please her uncle.
It's more than just not annoying!
The attendants following Mu Sikuang were stunned; it was the first time they had ever seen their master so kind and approachable.
Yes, she is kind and approachable.
Poor thing, the children of the Mu family rarely saw their master since birth. Only on certain holidays would he experience brief moments of paternal affection. On other days, he would stay as far away from the children as possible. In his eyes, children = trouble.
The young masters and ladies of the Mu family were all raised by the Duchess.
This is truly the first time the master has taken the initiative to approach a child. And he doesn't seem to be resistant at all.
The attendant was dumbfounded...
Then I understood...
This cousin's status in his eyes rose rapidly, second only to the master.
No one knew that this attendant was thinking so much beneath his composed expression.
Mu Sikuang reached out and adjusted her cloak. "Have fun," he said, then looked at the maid who was almost invisible in the shadows. He frowned slightly, noticing that she didn't seem very clever, and whispered, "Take good care of the young master."
Yingrui kept her head down and whispered, "Yes."
Only after Mu Sikuang left did Yingrui breathe a sigh of relief, and she hurriedly took her cousin's hand and left the place.
Still somewhat displeased with the girl's actions, Mu Sikuang whispered to his attendant, "Have the steward send two clever girls to serve Miss Biao."
Completely forgetting that in his previous life, at this time, he was seen by outsiders as a scoundrel who frequently took a fancy to the maids in the mansion without giving them any status, and that good girls should indeed stay away from him.
Mu Sikuang felt agitated at the thought that someone in the manor had poisoned Xiao Yuxi. He had always felt guilty towards his sister, and now that this child was his sister's only daughter, he really had to take good care of her and not let her be harmed again.
Thinking this, Mu Sikuang turned his head and whispered again, "I remember there are female bodyguards in the manor? Send one to Miss Biao's place."
Unbeknownst to Xiao Yuxi, two more bodyguards had appeared beside her. As soon as she entered the room, Potato Brother pulled her away so quickly that even Yingrui couldn't stop her, and the little girl ended up in the boys' area.
Looking at Sister Xi's bewildered and somewhat lost expression, Mu Yunchen felt a secret thrill. This was exactly the kind of feeling he was experiencing: knowing what she would become in the future, yet witnessing all the silly things she did as a child.
Mu Yunchen stood tall and proud, full of vigor, and said to his group of cronies, "This is my sister. But you can't call her sister. Only I can call her sister."
Little Yu Xi blinked and watched Potato Brother's radiant appearance, quietly playing the role of a show-off.
The other children were puzzled, "Why can't I be a little sister?"
"I said no, and that's final!" Mu Yunchen, always domineering, pouted and glared at them angrily.
"Then what can we call her? She's obviously younger than us!"
Mu Yunchen choked on his words.
Even Sister Xi can't do it. Only he can call her that. If other people call her that, he won't be the special little brother in Sister Xi's eyes anymore.
But if they call him "sister," then wouldn't he, who calls her "sister Xi," no longer be seen as the eldest brother by these people?
Is his position as the eldest brother in jeopardy?
Mu Yunchen's expression instantly turned serious; this was indeed a tricky problem.
Xiao Yuxi gently placed her hand into Potato Brother's hand, looked up at the group of brothers who were about the same age as Earth Brother, and said softly, "My name is Mu Yuxi, you can just call me Xixi."
Mu Yunchen instantly transformed into a victorious rooster, proudly raising his chin. Sister Xi was indeed always on his side! That's how it should be; she was his only sister, his only Sister Xi, and they were the closest of friends! These underlings didn't deserve to call Sister Xi "sister" at all!
Mu Yunchen completely forgot that he was the youngest in his family, with two older sisters and an older brother who could all call Xixi "little sister".
The group of boys couldn't understand why Mu Yunchen had suddenly grabbed a little girl while playing polo and forced her to acknowledge him. Now, the polo field had been taken over by the group of older boys, which was a huge loss for them!
Mu Yunchen grabbed Xi Xi's little hand, showing it off like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.
