Chapter 118: Letter From the Chen Family

The postman stopped outside the door of the Yun Family’s house when Yun Xi had just finished her discussion with Yun Shan regarding the details of what to do next. Yunyang ran into the house with a letter in his arms.

“Mom, there’s a letter for you.”

It turned out to be a letter for Chen Li. Chen Li had always lived in seclusion and did not have many friends to write to. Presumably, this letter must have been sent from Chen Li’s family.

Although she was illiterate, Chen Li still knew a few words. It was not difficult for her to read a simple letter from home. She also did not have anything to hide from her family. When she received the letter, she shared the matter with the entire family.

The letter turned out to be from Chen Li’s younger brother. He got engaged this year and was going to hold an engagement party this month. He had specially written this letter to request Chen Li’s return. He wanted her to go home and help him out. Moreover, Chen Li’s own younger brother was getting married. As an elder sister, it would not make sense for her not to go back.

“I might have to go back to my parents’ house for a few days. I’ll leave all the matters of this house to you for the time being.”

“Don’t worry, I’m here. You don’t have to worry about these small matters. Just go as soon as possible.”

Yun Shan had an expression that said, “Don’t worry, I’m here at home.”

This was a wedding after all. Chen Li still had her own selfish motives. She wanted to bring her two children to her parents’ house so that they could have a feast to satisfy their cravings.

“Yun Xi, Yun Yang, are you willing to go to your grandfather’s house with me?” Despite her motives, Chen Li was still a qualified mother. Before doing anything, she would always ask her children for their opinions first.

Yun Xi did not know much about Chen Li’s family. In her previous life, she did not seem to have much interaction with her grandparents or her mother’s family.

In fact, Chen Li’s family was also quite complicated.

In the era of Chen Li’s parents, there were very few cases of divorce. However, Chen Li’s father divorced her mother because he was in love with a beautiful widow from the neighboring village. At that time, Chen Li was only seven years old.

Chen Li’s mother could not accept the fact that her daughter was in the hands of such an irresponsible man, so she remarried and brought her daughter along into the family. The man whom she remarried was Chen Li’s father now.

Chen Li’s stepfather had a very good temper, and his surname was also Chen, so he had always treated Chen Li as his own daughter. Over time, everyone thought that Chen Li’s stepfather was her biological father.

So many years have passed since. During New Year, Chen Li would always go to her biological father’s house to stay for a few days. Otherwise, the two families rarely get in touch with each other.

When Chen Li stayed with her biological father for a few days, her stepmother always made things difficult for Chen Li. Hence, her stay there would be less than three days every time, and she would then quickly return to her stepfather’s house.

Therefore, everyone tacitly agreed that Chen Li’s stepfather was Chen Li’s biological father, including Chen Li herself.

Chen Li would occasionally hear some news about her biological father. His new wife was still very young when she was widowed, and her ex-husband did not leave her a child.

Therefore, after the two of them got married, they had always wanted to have a child of their own. However, perhaps because they had done all kinds of bad deeds, they were blessed with a child. They had also tried all kinds of methods. When the widow was in her thirties, she finally gave birth to their child. It was a boy. This boy was Chen Li’s half-brother, named Chen Xin.

The boy who was getting engaged now was Chen Xin. Their biological father and Chen Li had not been in contact with each other for a long time. This time, they used this joyous occasion to call her back home.

After all, seeing that the Yun Family was getting more prosperous, Chen Li’s biological father also wanted to suck up to them. Especially so when Yun Gang’s position as an official got reinstated.

Naturally, outsiders could not see the true situation within the family. They only felt that when one person had attained enlightenment, then the rest of the family would benefit as well.

Chen Li was a good person. She had always felt that although her stepmother had broken her parents’ marriage, this half-brother of hers was ultimately innocent.

She also decided to return due to this.
