HCB Chapter 384 Brother, Who Are You?
Chapter 384 Brother, Who Are You?
Mu Ruilin watched the princess interact with her younger brothers and sisters, feeling both envious and regretful.
Over the past hundred years, it has been very difficult for their Mu family to continue their lineage, and his generation was even more precarious. Even his parents died early, leaving him alone... Otherwise, Grandpa Ji would not have taken the risk of letting him show up and seek new opportunities.
My father once said that their bloodline was acquired at the cost of countless lives. The lack of offspring might be retribution or punishment from heaven, but they had no right to die, and even less to not continue the family line, because their existence was only the carrier of the continuation of the family bloodline...
Thinking of the empty look in his father's eyes before he passed away, Mu Ruilin laughed at himself. What about his life? What was he?
Just like the smallest star in the night sky, even if it tries its best to twinkle, it cannot escape the fate of being covered by the sunlight in the end, and the cycle repeats endlessly...
"What are you thinking about?"
A call from a girl interrupted his sad days.
Seeing him standing at the entrance in a daze, Shen Yu couldn't help but come over to ask.
After Lu Yingxing sent them there, he left the house again. She brought the people here, but didn't know how to start the conversation.
She admitted that at first, she was angry at the young man. If it weren't for his ungrateful ancestors, her master, brothers, and uncle wouldn't have been trapped in Lingzhu Temple.
But it’s not just the Lu family that are trapped.
The Su family, the Ji family, the Lu family, the Mu family, the young man in front of him, his grandfather, and even the uncle from the Ji family whom he had never met but decided to remain single and childless for the rest of his life... Coincidentally, the master also chose not to marry or have children. How ironic!
Don’t they just want to cut off this absurdity that has lasted for a hundred years?
Especially when she learned that the last emperor of the previous dynasty, who had brought disaster to the country and the people, had the nerve to ask them to swear an oath on the future of their own families, and ordered them to promise to protect the descendants of the Mu family forever, otherwise their descendants would be extinct... Ha, where is their face?
I can’t think about it, I get angry every time I think about it!!!
"Brother, who are you?"
Mu Ruilin lowered his head and saw a big head popping out from behind the princess. The figure of the chubby boy could not be hidden no matter how hard he tried.
Seeing his older brother's bewildered look, he asked with a smile, "Brother, don't you even know who you are?"
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Shen Yu held his forehead with a headache, "Yu Hai, your brother Mu'er's rules class is waiting for you..."
As a result, the little fat boy covered his mouth with his short hands, looked at the classroom over there in a mean way, and said arrogantly, "Sister, Brother Muer went in to add another seat, and it is said that it is prepared for you!"
Shen Yu was successfully distracted by him, and he didn't care about Mu Ruilin anymore. He stepped back and said, "Haha, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. I'll leave first..."
As a result, Yang Er, who had sharp ears, heard it and yelled at the top of his voice, "Brother Mu Er, sister is trying to escape!"
When Yu Meng heard this, she immediately came over and hugged her thighs, and said coldly, "Brother Mu'er, come quickly, I've caught my sister!"
Shen Yu was so frightened that she even said in a girlish voice, "You traitors!!!"
Yu Ying, who was in charge of watching her sister, and Yu Su, who was always steady, both quietly retreated to the door to block her retreat.
Yu Mu said that their elder sister would go to class with them in the future, and they didn’t care about the rules. They could go to class with their elder sister again. Except when they were in the village, it had been a long time since they went to class with their elder sister!
Every child tacitly wanted to keep her. Shen Yu closed his eyes resignedly: God wants to kill me! !
The breeze blew gently, with the tenderness and comfort unique to early autumn, passing through every corner of the yard, gently shaking the leaves on the branches and making rustling whispers. It should have been a peaceful and harmonious scene, but because of the noise of these children, it added a lot of brightness and vitality.
They started playing the game of "Eagle Catches Chicken" and surrounded Shen Yu with their hands raised.
Yu Hai saw the older brother still standing there looking at him, and he got anxious, "Big brother, please help me!"
When Shen Yu finally found a breakthrough and was about to break out, suddenly, a figure slightly taller than her stood in front of her, with rare excitement and joy flashing in the boy's eyes.
The thin boy stood there with his back straight. Mu Ruilin imitated them and opened his hands slightly. His tone was cold but with obvious joy, "Princess, I'm sorry."
Yu Mu's mature voice came from behind, "Sister, didn't you say that we should lead by example?"
Shen Yu was speechless for a moment. He glared at Mu Ruilin, turned around and tried to reason with the old man, waving his hands and saying, "Mu'er, I'm already a grown-up. It's not appropriate for me to study with you guys. It's not appropriate!"
Yu Mu came over, took her hand and led her inside. "It couldn't be more appropriate. Sister, didn't you ask me to take care of your nephew? Then let's start with prenatal education."
Shen Yu, "..." That's too hasty. Did she dig this sinkhole herself?
Seeing that their sister was not leaving, the children shouted excitedly and surrounded them, chattering non-stop.
"Brother, aren't you going?" Yu Hai blinked and looked up and asked.
Mu Ruilin choked, her voice tense, "Can I?"
"Sure!" Yu Hai heard the cautiousness in his voice and knew that his brother must be embarrassed, so he took the initiative to pull his hand and walked forward.
This older brother had just helped, so he was naturally classified as a "companion".
Although Shen Yu acted very reluctant, her real intention today was actually to come and accompany the children.
She had been listening to what Mu Ruilin was doing outside, and when she saw him and Yu Hai walking in hand in hand, she smiled slightly, hiding her achievements and fame.
When Shen Yu was brought to her exclusive seat, she was overjoyed. It turned out to be an oversized armchair with her pregnancy pillow on it?
It was about the size of four chairs put together, equivalent to a large square chair, but it had backrests on three sides, with thick cushions on top, and her various pillows, and a small coffee table? Is this called a class?
He suppressed his inner joy and pretended to refuse seriously, "Ah? This is too exaggerated, isn't it? I'm affecting your mood in class, isn't it?"
Yu Mu rolled his eyes at his sister. She was obviously so happy inside, but she was still pretending!
"This was prepared by my brother-in-law. He said you complained before that the armchairs in the yard were too small, so he specially asked a craftsman to customize it."
Shen Yu walked over happily, oh, her man is pretty good!
Mu Ruilin was obviously shocked by this oversized chair. Prince Zhuo was really spoiling his wife. This was the first time he saw such a familiar set of accessories in the school...
In his opinion, scholars valued enduring hardships in order to become superior people, but this chair...
"What? Do you have any objections?" Shen Yu asked with narrowed eyes.
He actually said what was in his mind?! Mu Ruilin was startled. He met several warning glances and suddenly had a desire to survive. He said seriously, "This chair is very good. It allows other students to practice how to resist temptation all the time. It is perfect for them at this age..."
Shen Yu was indeed very satisfied with his knowledge and understanding. He walked up to him, patted his shoulder and said, "Do a good job, and they will be handed over to you in the future!"
