On Mount Immovable.
Li Yuanqing sat there, his face filled with shock, just like his father, Li Zhonggeng.
Grandma Li calmly finished recounting the process of recognizing her relatives, and looked at them, saying, "That's how it is. I know it might be hard for you to accept right now, but I've already obtained the kinship test results."
“Wen Shu’s maternal grandmother is another child that the Li family lost more than seventy years ago, namely my twin sister. She and I are fraternal twins, and we don’t look alike. Even if we are face to face, it is hard to imagine that we are the same person.”
"It was all by chance that we were able to find her this time. Li Duo had been helping me search around, and we finally found her."
Li Zhonggeng looked somewhat agitated, as he was searching for his lost twin sisters, a wish left by the older generation.
The Li family did not give up, but as the older generation passed away, the younger generation's desire to find their relatives was not as strong as before.
Of all the people in the Li family, the one who most wanted to find her lost sister was Third Madam Li.
Li Zhonggeng never expected that, many years later, thanks to the persistent efforts of his third grandmother, they would actually find the person.
"Third Aunt, I wonder how Fourth Aunt is doing these days?"
Grandma Li said, "I don't think she's had it that good. At the very least, she's suffered a lot. She was married before, but unfortunately, they didn't stay together until the end. Now, only Wen Shu is by her side."
"If it weren't for Wen Shu all these years, she would probably be gone by now."
Grandma Li San gave Li Yuanqing and Li Zhonggeng a cold look. "I heard that you even mobilized a lot of legal teams to sue Wen Shu and take back the child that Wen Shu and Li Duo had. How could you do something like that?"
"That child was born after Wen Shu risked her life. She put in so much effort to raise the child to be healthy, chubby, and beautiful. Now you want to reap the benefits without lifting a finger? What makes you think you can do that?"
“Zhong Geng, there’s something I still want to advise you on. I advise you to do more good deeds. If you do more good deeds, God’s blessings will naturally come to you.”
"A person who does bad things all their life, even if they are very wealthy while they are alive, will not even have anyone to collect their body when they die. Believe it or not, I have seen this kind of thing many times."
Li Zhonggeng's expression was somewhat unpleasant. "Third Aunt, I understand what you mean, but..."
"Just what? You just want to take all the children of the Li family back? Do you think you can do that now?"
Back then, Li Zhonggeng drove away Li Duo's birth mother and kept Li Duo. So many years have passed, has Li Duo ever had a heart-to-heart talk with Li Zhonggeng?
Did Li Zhonggeng ever receive the kind of respect, admiration, and love that a son would have for his father from Li Duo?
"Heaven is watching what people do"—this is an eternal and timeless truth!
What decisions were made? How much effort was put in? And the rewards were commensurate with that effort.
Grandma Li glanced at Li Zhonggeng and asked, "Do you hope that the descendants of the Li family will all be cold-hearted, profit-driven, and only care about money?"
Grandma Li glanced at Li Yuanqing and said, "Your daughter is just like you. She doesn't care about feelings for her family, only about interests. She's certainly a shrewd businesswoman, but that also means she's destined to be abandoned by everyone in the future!"
Li Yuanqing was called out by Third Madam Li, and he suddenly looked up at her, "Third Madam, how come I only talk about interests and not feelings? I'm working now, isn't it all for the Li family?"
"If Li Duo had taken any responsibility, I wouldn't be carrying such a heavy burden!"
Grandma Li asked, "So you've been working so hard? Since you've been working so hard, do you not want to continue? If you don't want to continue, then I'll let Li Duo come back."
Li Yuanqing immediately fell silent. She had worked so hard to get to where she was today, how could she possibly give up her position voluntarily?
Dream on!
Grandma Li snorted coldly, knowing that she was reluctant to part with it.
Since she can't bear to part with it, she shouldn't say such high-sounding words. Nobody is a fool. She's an old woman who has no interest in fame and fortune. She only hopes that her descendants will live well and be happy, so that they won't be as broken as the previous generation.
Li Zhonggeng frowned. "Third Aunt, I shouldn't be saying this, but Li Duo is being disobedient, so I'll explain it to you myself."
"I've actually thought this over carefully. As you just mentioned, Wen Shu has put in a lot of effort and worked very hard to raise the child."
"What does this mean? It means that Wen Shu is having a very difficult time raising the child. Her financial situation and living environment are not suitable for raising such a young child."
"As children grow older, their expenses will increase, and they will need to go to school and learn more and more things. Where will this money come from?"
"Does fulfilling her desire to be a mother mean sacrificing the child?"
“It was difficult for her to raise the children, but for the Li family, raising several children was a small matter. Third Aunt, I always tell the children that they should do as much as they are capable of.”
"Personally, I think it's a good thing for Wen Shu that the Li family has taken custody of the child. It helps to reduce her burden and gives her a chance to breathe."
"What ability does a woman like her have? The child is still so young, and there are many years to endure. The Li family has such an environment and such conditions, why doesn't she hand the child over to the Li family to raise? The Li family won't forbid her from visiting the child."
After hearing Li Zhonggeng's words, Grandma Li sneered, "You said the same thing to Li Duo's mother back then, and what happened? Did Li Duo's mother ever get to see her child?"
Of course, Third Grandma Li disliked Li Duo's birth mother. That woman was of bad character. If she had any better morals, she wouldn't have secretly given birth to Li Duo outside with that old man, Li Zhonggeng.
Did she really think that giving birth to Li Duo would make her good to him?
The Li family gave her money, and she said she took the money and left, but she never had the chance to see her child again.
What is this? Is she selling her own son for a good price?
Grandma Li looked down on Li Duo's birth mother, but she was also a woman, and her feminine instincts made her feel that it was cruel for the Li family not to let a mother take care of her child.
How many times did that woman come? In the end, she couldn't even get into the Li family's house.
Grandma Li gets angry when she thinks about this. Now Li Zhonggeng is planning to have Li Yuanqing use the same method to deal with Wen Shu, isn't he?
"How can you do this to your fourth aunt? She hasn't stopped searching for her family for all these years!"
Li Zhonggeng sighed, "Third Aunt, I've already explained my reasons to you. What we're doing is a relief for Wen Shu as well."
"She's only reluctant to let go right now. Once she realizes she's free from the responsibility of raising children, she'll understand the happiness of freedom. She's still young, she hasn't even graduated from university yet. Once the children are gone, she'll realize how painful her previous life was!"
