Mu Zhongqing was very disappointed.
This child was much weaker than Wen'er and Wu'er when they were born. During that time, he and Lady Du were trying to make a living in the Mu Family Village, and those days were much harder than for Dong Wan'er. Although Lady Du didn't get adequate nutrition, Wen'er and Wu'er both cried loudly and clenched their little fists tightly when born, unlike this little thing who whimpered with no trace of a man's spirit.
Mu Chongwu was also very disappointed.
He thought that blood was thicker than water. Even though he didn't like Lady Wan'er of Dong Clan, he should have been excessively fond of his innocent child, especially his firstborn. But in reality, from the moment he first laid eyes on the child, he didn't like him at all, and even felt a bit disgusted. That natural father-son bond, the innate familial connection, didn't manifest in him at all.
Only Lady Du was quite pleased.
