The whole family is reborn, and their five-year-old child becomes the darling of the entire capital.

Mu Yuxi felt like she had been asleep for a very long time. She vaguely heard people talking in hushed tones, and there were many different people.

"How come Mu Yunnan brought her back, and now we can't even get rid of her? What bad luck!"

"It would be best to burn it alive; if this thing survives, it'll be a menace."

"The old lady didn't even come to see this cousin once, so she must be out of favor. I don't know what's wrong with the second young lady, she's been so high-profile in inviting all the famous doctors in the capital, and now she's even using a get-out-of-jail-free card to go to the palace to summon the imperial physician."

"You lot, throw her, blanket and all, straight into Lan Garden!"

“This is not good, Third Young Master. Miss Biao still has a high fever. No one has lived in Lan Garden for more than ten years, and even the windows are broken.”

"Miss Cousin? What kind of Miss Cousin is she? The real Miss Cousin never came back; she's just an imposter!"

"Third Young Master, you can't just say things like that!"

"Hurry up, or Grandma will sell you all off!"

"Oh...yes."

Mu Yuxi felt herself being suddenly lifted up, blanket and all, and after a long while, she was placed in a cold place.

My head felt even more dizzy.

So the Third Young Master was talking about her?

Is she really an unlikable presence wherever she goes?

……

"Have you all lost your minds? How could you possibly send someone to Lan Garden?"

Mu Yunnan was furious, almost dying of anger, but he still hurriedly sent the imperial physician into the room to diagnose the little girl.

"Second Miss, please forgive us. It was...it was the Third Young Master. He said that if we didn't do as he said, he would sell us off."

"Third brother?" Mu Yunnan looked at the crying maids, suppressing his anger. "Aren't you afraid of being sold off by me? I've been at the border for so long, you've forgotten my temperament!"

"Please forgive me, Miss Second, please forgive me..."

Mu Yunnan clenched her fists. When the Duke of Mu's mansion welcomed back that fake young lady, she wasn't in the capital, but she heard that her grandmother and father had given it a grand welcome, and everything was done in the best possible way.

After Yu Xi returned home, her grandmother didn't even glance at her, and her father didn't even return to the mansion. Everyone seemed to treat her as if she didn't exist.

Upon seeing the imperial physician emerge with a prescription, Mu Yunnan hurriedly stepped forward.

"Imperial Physician An, how is it?"

"This child is too weak and needs more nourishment, but not too much. Get this prescription first, and after two doses, the fever will subside. As for the cold poison that the general mentioned earlier, we do need to try to warm and nourish him first. Everything is still uncertain before we make any effort."

"Thank you very much, Physician An."

As Physician An watched her accept the prescription with both hands, he couldn't help but smile as well. "General, you haven't been back to the capital for many years, and you seem to have become more lively than before."

Lively personality?

Mu Yunnan recalled the events of his past life, his smile fading slightly. He shook his head and handed the prescription to a servant beside him. "Perhaps it's because I met Yu Xi that I'm inevitably a little gentler."

"Yu Xi?" Imperial Physician An's eyes flickered slightly as he asked hesitantly, "Is the little baby in the room named Yu Xi?"

"Exactly."

"The way you choose your son is very good."

"If it's Yu Xi's illness..."

"Just come to me anytime. But don't do what you did today, barging into the palace with your get-out-of-jail-free card, which startled the Emperor." Physician An shook his head. "You're just as reckless as your father. I'll write down some dietary supplement recipes for you to give to the child first."

"Thank you very much, Physician An."

After seeing off Imperial Physician An, Mu Yunnan's smile cooled. He went inside, picked up the thin, frail little girl who was even lighter than his helmet, and walked directly into her courtyard.

If her general's mansion hadn't been under repair, she wouldn't have let Yu Xi suffer like this. Her Yu Xi deserved the best of everything.

When Mu Yuxi woke up, she was on a huge, carved wooden bed. She felt warm all over. Through the screen, she could vaguely see an older sister holding a pot and pouring water.

The older girl, carrying a small bowl, walked around the screen. "Oh, Miss, you're awake?"

Mu Yuxi looked up at her with a blank expression, blinking her big eyes. She had never seen this older sister before.

The stranger placed the small bowl she was holding on a table next to her. The table was also extremely exquisite, carved with flowers, and very beautiful.

"This servant is Yingrui, specially sent by the General to serve you, Miss. Is there anything wrong with you, Miss?"

"Is that your name, Yingrui?" Her name is so long and hard to remember!

Mu Yuxi raised her head, blinked, then lowered her head again, and after a while, raised her head again.

Seeing how adorable she was, Yingrui placed a cushion behind her so she could lean against it. "Miss, is there anything you want to say?"

"Why is your name so long? The longest I've ever seen is only three characters." Mu Yuxi counted on her fingers, accurately showing three characters.

Yingrui blinked, her mind racing. "But my name only has two characters! My name is Yingrui. If you don't like the pronunciation, Miss, you can change my name."

Mu Yuxi had never been to school; the only thing she knew how to do was count, which she learned by playing games with other children. Little Yuxi felt a little wronged; this older sister spoke too fast, and she still didn't understand the use of terms like "servant" and "Yingrui"—it was all so confusing.

Yingrui was always good at guessing her master's thoughts, but this little master was just too small, and like a little hamster, she would secretly raise her head to look at her, which was incredibly cute. She really couldn't figure out what this little cutie was thinking.

After a while, she suddenly remembered that the young mistress had been brought back from the countryside. Yingrui paused, squatted down, and looked up at the young mistress's pretty face. "I am called 'servant,' but Yingrui is my name. Using 'servant' is a sign of respect for you, Miss. If you want to call me, please call me Yingrui."

Yingrui deliberately softened her tone and spoke slowly, bit by bit. Sure enough, she saw her young master's eyes brighten a little.

She called her in a childish voice, "Yingrui?"

"The servant is here."

Seeing that her young master finally smiled and showed her two cute little baby teeth, Yingrui picked up the medicine from the side, stirred it, and found that it was just about cooled down.

"This medicine isn't too bitter. Shall we drink it and then give Miss some candy later?"

Xiao Yuxi took the bowl of medicine with both hands, hesitated for a moment looking at the dark, obviously bitter medicine. She only got medicine when her younger brother was sick, and she had never tasted medicine before.

Seeing her hesitation, Yingrui assumed it was because she was afraid of the bitterness and became somewhat anxious. The herbs in this medicine were all very precious, and if the young lady didn't drink it...
