Suddenly, the house no longer felt like home.
Mu Xi's disappearance only made things worse for the family.
For so many years, the Mu family has appeared glorious on the outside, but this glory, which came at the cost of the family's destruction, is causing Old Madam Mu's heart to bleed.
However, having weathered many storms in her life, she is not so easily defeated.
I always thought that one day I would at least see Mu Ye get married and have children, but I never expected that Mu Jin would do it first!
Moreover, Mu Xi has returned, which gives Old Madam Mu the feeling that, after all, it is possible for a broken mirror to be mended!
Mu Xi couldn't help but hug Grandma Mu's shoulders, "Grandma, it's our fault. You've worked so hard these past few years..."
Grandma Mu: "What nonsense are you talking about? Grandma knows you are all good children."
"Now everything is great, our family is reunited, and soon there will be one more person!"
Mu Xi smiled, feeling a little happy at the thought that the cat would be able to live in the Jiu family's house in the future.
After calming down, Madam Mu looked at Mu Xi carefully and said with satisfaction, "Little Xi, did you have a good time on this trip?"
Mu Xi nodded. "I'm very happy. I've been to many places."
Madam Mu asked again, "You've lost some weight, but you're healthier and much fairer. It's always good for a girl to be pretty, not to show off to anyone else, but to please herself."
Mu Xi nodded. "I understand, Grandma. When I was a general, I had to endure the wind and sun to look like a general. Actually, I really miss wearing skirts, haha."
Her grandmother was elegant her whole life. Even when she was in a wheelchair, she would wear the most exquisite cheongsam, glasses, and high heels every day.
Mu Xi grew up with her since childhood, and naturally learned from her.
She believes that women should be more elegant.
When I was a child, I was naughty and couldn't sit still. Now that I'm older, I think that should be the norm.
After considering for a moment, Madam Mu asked again, "Xiao Xi, do you... still plan to go on a trip?"
Last time she was gone for half a year. When she finally came back, it was to attend the last concert of the cat. Her plan to travel the world is not over yet.
However, Mu Xi shook her head, "Hehe, Grandma, I won't go for now, don't worry."
“When I returned to this world, I was bored and lost. My second sister-in-law suggested that I travel, so I did... I have been to many places, and as I traveled, I came to terms with things.”
"I've only lived for twenty-seven years, and it feels like a lifetime ago, but there are so many things I can do in this world."
"Back then, I was able to make the decision to search for the sea eye, and now I can start over."
Grandma Mu looked at Mu Xi with satisfaction: "Little Xi, I'm relieved that you think this way."
"What are your plans? Tell Grandma."
Mu Xi hesitated for some reason, "I..."
Grandma Mu looked at her and said, "What's wrong? Although Grandma doesn't manage things anymore, I can still give you some advice. Otherwise, Grandma will call your eldest brother, second brother, and Maomao over?"
Mu Xi looked at Old Madam Mu with feigned resentment: "Grandma, what are you saying? I didn't look down on you. Besides, I already have a plan, but... I don't know if Second Brother will agree."
"Oh? What exactly happened?"
Mu Xi: "I want to go to the Fifth Zhen's unit. After thinking it over, the Fifth Zhen is the only place that I feel most comfortable with."
"However, the relationship between the Fifth Family and the Eight Gates is always a bit ambiguous. It's neither good nor bad, and Second Brother is always a little wary of Fifth Zhen."
Grandma Mu understood. "So that's what you're thinking about. Grandma can tell you that you can go if you want, it's no big deal."
The fifth family wanted to suppress the Eight Gates and prevent them from emerging, but... the fifth family couldn't suppress them. No one can suppress the Eight Gates now.
"Go ahead, Cat's brother. Jiu Yebai is in the Fifth True Army. Cat doesn't even restrain him, so the Mu family won't restrain you either."
Mu Xi smiled and said, "Actually, I just went to Professor Gu's place and asked him about this. He also suggested that I go to the Fifth True Army because it will be the first ultra-modern army in the future."
Grandma Mu smiled and shook her head. "Little girl, you've really grown up. You didn't come to Grandma for such an important matter, but went to Professor Gu first... Oh well, I think only I treat you like a child."
"Let's not talk about that anymore. I was just saying that I'm going to order some dresses for you, some for everyday wear, and some for your second brother and Maomao's wedding."
