Xiao Yuxi slid off her grandmother and said, "Grandma, Xixi wants to go back to the house."

The old lady's heart softened when she saw the little girl's pitiful expression. She looked around and realized that few of these people were reliable.

Mu Yunchen stepped forward and took Xiao Yuxi's hand, "I'll go with my sister."

The old lady looked at the two children and chuckled softly, "Go ahead."

Seeing that Xixi was being pulled away by Yunchen, he instructed the maids to follow behind and protect her.

Xiao Xian stood at the door, staring intently at Mu Yunchen holding Xiao Yuxi's hand, his lips pursed in displeasure.

Yun Chen walked with Xiao Yu Xi for a while, always feeling that someone was watching him from behind, but when he turned around, there was nothing there.

"What's wrong with Brother Potato?" Xiao Yuxi asked, puzzled as she watched Brother Yunchen stop and look behind him.

"I feel like someone is watching me."

Xiao Yuxi looked back and saw a long line of maids behind her. She asked somewhat blankly, "Weren't they supposed to be watching us the whole time?"

"It wasn't them." Mu Yunchen frowned and simply pulled Xiao Yuxi along to quicken their pace.

He remembered that nothing like this had ever happened in the Mu family in his previous life. He had clearly said he wasn't afraid, so why did he feel inexplicably uneasy?

Xiao Yuxi instantly understood, tiptoed and patted Potato Brother's back, "Potato Brother, don't be afraid, Yuxi will protect you."

For a moment, Mu Yunchen was in a daze, as if he saw Yu Xi from his past life gently patting his back and smiling as she said to him, "Little Potato, don't be afraid, I'll protect you."

Once in the courtyard, Xiao Yuxi broke free from his hand and ran inside like a little swallow.

Mu Yunchen looked at his empty palm and instantly came to his senses.

It's already a different life.

Xiao Yuxi searched around the room and finally found the fireworks she had specially saved last night, which had rolled under the bed.

When Mu Yunchen came in, he happened to see Xiao Yuxi sticking her head out from under the bed.

The little flower buds wrapped around her head came undone, and her hair was plastered on her face, making her look just like a female ghost crawling out from under the bed.

Xiao Yuxi reached out and brushed the hair that was covering her eyes aside, then looked up at Potato Brother. "Brother, my foot is trapped!"

Mu Yunchen appeared outwardly unresponsive, but inwardly he was screaming like a chicken, his soul practically flying away in fright. It wasn't until Xiao Yuxi tearfully said again that her foot was stuck that he snapped out of it, quickly crawled in, and pulled her little foot out of the gap.

Xiao Yuxi sat on the ground, her hair a mess, holding a paper tube as thick as a painting scroll in her arms.

Mu Yunchen looked at the thing that Xiao Yuxi was holding and curiously took it in his hands to examine it.

Second Brother's signal flare!!!

How did this thing end up in Sister Xi's hands?!

Once this is placed, people within a five-mile radius will instantly gather.

If we put it here, the entire Mu family's secret guards would probably have to be mobilized...

Mu Yunchen wore an indescribable expression. Although he knew his second brother had been good to Xi-jie in their past life, he really hadn't expected that Xi-jie was still just a child, and didn't even know how to use this, yet he had given it to her. Wasn't that spoiling her a bit too much?

"Did your second brother give this to you?"

Xiao Yuxi shook her head and explained earnestly, "It was given to me by that pretty lady in black yesterday. I set off a lot of fireworks yesterday, they were so beautiful! I saved one so I could watch it with my second sister."

Using the second brother's signal flare as fireworks?

Ok……

Very much in Xi Jie's style...

"Let's go find Second Sister and then set off fireworks for her, shall we?" Little Yu Xi looked at Brother Potato with anticipation.

Mu Yunchen was speechless for a moment.

She took this to set off fireworks, and her second brother wouldn't say anything to her. He might even praise her, saying something like, "Xixi is so great."

He has experienced this firsthand during this period.

But he stayed with her, taking her second brother's signal flares to set off fireworks. Her second brother probably still wouldn't say anything in front of her, and might even make a batch of similar fireworks for her to play with.

But behind his back, they might whip him.

Mu Yunchen felt that this deal seemed to be a bit of a loss.

Mu Yunchen silently pressed her hand down and said in a serious tone, "I think Second Sister might not like fireworks."

"Why don't you like it? Fireworks are so bright and beautiful!" Xiao Yuxi looked pitifully at the firework she had specially saved yesterday, feeling a little dejected.

Why doesn't my second sister like such beautiful fireworks?

She didn't want to play with it all yesterday!

"After all, Second Sister is a general and doesn't like this kind of thing. Look, the Mu family didn't put this up on New Year's Eve." Mu Yunchen coaxed gently.

In reality, the Emperor issued a decree this year to promote clean governance, and everything on New Year's Eve should be simplified. Fireworks are considered a luxury in the Moon Kingdom, so they were the first thing to be abandoned, and in the end, only half a string of firecrackers were set off.

Xiao Yuxi hadn't spent New Year's Eve at the Mu residence and was unaware of the situation, but seeing how confidently Brother Potato spoke, she was completely convinced.

Looking at the firework tube in my hand, I felt a little sad. If I had known that my second sister didn't like it, I would have set it off yesterday.

Thinking this, Xiao Yuxi aimed at the air and, imitating what the woman in black had done yesterday, gently pulled the ring and twisted it slightly.

"Boom-"

The roof tiles above shattered and fell down.

Mu Yunchen's eyes widened suddenly, and he immediately pulled Xiao Yuxi into his arms.

The tiles all hit his back.

Mu Yunchen looked at Xiao Yuxi in his arms, who was completely unaware that she had caused trouble, and helplessly looked through the crack in the roof at the pattern in the sky that had not yet dissipated.

wink wink.

Well, I might as well just snatch it from her (ΘдΘ;)……

Xi Xi pointed to the hole that had been blown open above her head, "Xi Xi's house is ruined."

Mu Yunchen sighed, looking very weary, and said, "It's nothing, your potato brother will spoil soon too."

XiXi: (☉_☉) ? ? ?

A sudden thud echoed through the courtyard, followed by a maid's startled cry, "Who are you! Without permission..."

The sounds of things hitting the ground increased, and the maidservant fell completely silent.

With so many people, do they intend to bury every single member of the Mu family with a shovel?

Xiao Yuxi scrambled to her feet and walked to the door. To her surprise, she saw a courtyard full of people dressed in black, just like the woman in black from yesterday, kneeling in the same clothes.

Extremely spectacular.

Mu Yunchen, his legs trembling, walked over, leaning on the door for support. He saw the courtyard full of guards and looked at them blankly.

Bodyguard: ? ? ?

Where are their masters?

So, what are they going to do now?

Mu Yunchen: Very good, he's gone...

One of the guards was the first to notice the empty signal flare casings in the hands of the disheveled young girl at the head of the group. Believing that his master must have a reason for giving him the signal flares, he asked earnestly, "Miss, did you summon us for something?"

matter?

Xiao Yuxi blinked, raised her hand and pointed to the roof of the house behind her, "Do you know how to fix a roof?"

Bodyguard: ?

"Can you fix Xixi's house?"

Bodyguard: ?
