But that doesn't make sense. If he had married a new wife, given Lao Mu's stingy personality, he wouldn't have spent so much money to build another big house next to his original home.
Mu Huan was a little confused. It felt like the whole world had changed in just a few months since he came back.
Mu Huan walked over with a confused look on his face, and then he saw his old mother holding a small baby in her arms, and her face was full of kindness. Mu Huan suddenly felt like a bolt from the blue. Don't tell her that her parents gave her a brother or sister while she was away!
I have to say, the truth about Mu Huan is out!
"Mom!" Mu Huan suddenly felt like an outsider. She wasn't even informed of such a happy event as the birth of a younger brother or sister? Mu Huan had a strong feeling that she might have been picked up!
Mu Huan's mother, Si Xue, has a gentle appearance, appearing to be a lady from a noble family. However, only those who know her well know that this seemingly graceful woman is actually a fierce woman who can easily strike with lightning in battle. At home, she is the one who calls the shots and is the head of the Mu family!
Si Xue: "..." How should she explain? Could she throw away this little guy in her arms now?
Mu Yuntian: ...Is it too late to throw that brat away now?
Mu Huan saw through his parents' thoughts immediately: "...Does she look so scary? Is it really that she can't accept having a blood brother or sister?"
"Lao Mu, you guys are so mean! I already have a younger brother and sister, but I'm the last one to know." And the most important point is, when she was born, Lao Mu was not so generous as to buy her a house or something, so why did Lao Mu make such a fuss when this little guy was born?
"Uh! Ah Huan! Listen to your father's excuses." Mu Yuntian's old face turned red, allowing him to think about his excuses.
"Yes, yes, Ah Huan! Just listen to your father's excuses." Si Xue hurriedly passed the blame on to others. She didn't want to have this child in the first place. It was Lao Mu who said that she needed a brat to protect his sister when he grew up, so she agreed.
Mu Yuntian: ...
Mu Huan: ...
Mu Huan was very impressed by her mother's ability to shift the blame. When the two of them secretly ate food from the small kitchen without Mu's knowledge, her mother completely disowned her, saying that she only came to eat with her reluctantly because she wanted to. Mu Huan remembered that she was almost mad at her at that time! This is really her mother!
"...Okay! Dad, I'll listen to your excuses."
"No, that's not so good, right?" Mu Yuntian came closer to Mu Huanqie and spoke to him in a low voice!
"Ah Huan! Give your father some face. We can talk about accusing him later." After all, there are so many people here. It would be so embarrassing for him to admit his mistake later!
Oh, hoo! Old Mu finally knows how to save face! Okay, as Daddy's sweetheart, I should satisfy his small request.
Mu Huan signaled with his eyes: If you don’t explain clearly later, you will have to sleep on the street.
Mu Yuntian: ...Received, received!
Mu Yuntian really wiped away a handful of sad tears. He really had no family status at all. His fatherly authority was all thrown away. He was completely controlled by his wife and daughter. However! He glanced at the brat in his wife's arms and said, "Hmph!" By then, he wouldn't be the only one with a low family status.
Mu Yuntian was busy greeting the guests attending his brother's full moon banquet, while Mu Huan followed Si Xue to the inner courtyard. After not seeing each other for a long time, mother and daughter needed to talk, and it also allowed Mu Huan to cultivate her relationship with her brother.
"Mom, have I named my brother yet?" It was still quite embarrassing. It was thanks to her parents' courage that she was so old and they were able to give her a brother! I admire you so much! Mu Huan was really impressed!
Si Xue glanced at the brat in her arms, "Your father had already named him Mu Hu before he was born!" Hu means to protect. The original intention of choosing this child was also for Mu Huan, so that this brat could protect his sister when he grows up, and would not be hurt or bullied by others outside.
"You've decided on it before it's even born?" How can you be sure it's a boy? Lao Mu must be crazy about it.
Si Xue also blushed a little. After all, they were already old, and it was all Lao Mu's fault for being so reckless!
"So, if I didn't come back today, you were going to keep it a secret from me, right?" It was clearly a good thing, so why were you hiding it from her? It wasn't like she didn't understand the little bit of fun between them!
"...I didn't mean to hide it from you!" Si Xue paused, "We were just wondering how we could tell you so you could accept it." After all, the child was already that old, and it would definitely be hard for her to have a brother or sister for no reason. But Lao Mu was particularly strong-willed about this matter, so Si Xue didn't refuse.
Mu Huan sighed. What was there to be ashamed of? At most, she would just laugh at Old Mu, but she wouldn't do anything else. Could she possibly stop them from having children, or kill this little brother while he was still in her belly?
"It's obvious that this awful idea of having a child was Old Mu's idea!" He's sitting at home all day with nothing to do! Could it be that he's still counting on a child to help him regain his status as the head of the family? Mu laughed. It's just another lowly member!
"You!" Si Xue held Mu Hu in one hand and tapped Mu Huan's forehead with the other. How come her precious daughter has become thinner and darker in just a few months away? No, she must make sure she gets plump and white when she comes back!
"Mom!" Mu Huan acted coquettishly and hugged Si Xue's arm, rubbing his face against her arm.
"Mom, are you tired? Let me hold you." Mu Huan stretched out her hand. Although she had no experience in holding a child, she was actually very happy about the arrival of this little brother! From now on, she was also a sister, and she had to protect her brother well in the future.
But what Mu Huan didn't know was that the original intention of this child coming into this world was to protect her!
"But, mother, there is one thing I don't quite understand."
"What's the matter?" Si Xue asked her precious daughter while coaxing the naughty boy in her arms!
"Logically speaking, how could someone as stingy as Old Mu suddenly buy such a large house right next to his family's?" Mu Yuntian was truly stingy. Getting money from him required skill and cunning. Simply asking for money or asking him to pay for it himself was absolutely impossible.
Si Xue paused, then burst into laughter.
"Your father isn't that stingy. The reason he bought the house next door is so that if you feel you can't accept your brother's existence, you can let your brother live there!"
