Chapter 160 Your mother has her reasons.
Tong Yu's face immediately froze; this child's words were too harsh.
"Did your uncle tell you that she has passed away?"
Yan Sui shrugged. "She didn't die, so she went abroad?"
Tong Yu choked, and after a moment of silence, shook her head.
"No, she's always been in Yancheng."
Yan Sui chuckled. "So, if you haven't visited me even once in over twenty years, you're either dead or crippled. I have reasonable suspicions."
Tong Yu bit her lip and explained, "Your mother has her reasons."
Yan Sui glanced at her, not caring whether she had a reason or not.
After all, she never intended to acknowledge her relatives from the very beginning.
"What, she hasn't been doing well these past few years, and now she wants to ask me for alimony?"
Tong Yu took a deep breath. "Sui Sui, don't make malicious assumptions about your mother. She's not as bad as you think. She remarried a long time ago, and the man she married is very well-off."
She went to great lengths to marry into a wealthy family because she envied Tong Ling.
"Since you married a very good person and are living a good life, why are you bothering me?"
Yan Sui waved her hand, "If you come to Changqing Village for tourism, you are welcome anytime, but there's no need for a family reunion."
She's not a three-year-old child, yet she keeps yelling for her mother.
Tong Yu looked disappointed, but she had expected that the family reunion wouldn't be so simple.
Tong Ling has ignored Yan Sui all these years, and Yan Sui probably harbors resentment towards her.
“I know you hate your mother…”
Yan Sui waved her hand, she wouldn't take the blame for this.
"No, how could I hate someone I've never met?"
Hating someone is too tiring; she doesn't have the time for that.
Tong Yu's expression changed slightly; Yan Sui's attitude was the most troublesome aspect.
"Yan Sui, I..."
"Besides, if she wanted to acknowledge me herself, you wouldn't be the only one who came here now."
Yan Sui quickly understood this, but she was not disappointed because she had been looking forward to meeting her mother, whom she had never met, from the very beginning.
As soon as Tong Yu appeared, she made things clear, and she now roughly guessed who her birth mother was.
She looked at Zhang Junxiang again and asked, "Grandpa Zhang, what is Mrs. Mu's name?"
Zhang Junxiang sighed; he really hadn't expected it to be such a coincidence.
"If I remember correctly, her name should be Tong Ling."
Twenty-three years ago, Mu Yanlun lost his wife, leaving behind a daughter who was born prematurely and has congenital heart disease.
Tong Ling was the nanny he hired to take care of his child. Within two years, he and Tong Ling fell in love and got married.
At that time, Old Master Mu had passed away, and Jin Sheng was in power under Mu Yanlun. No one dared to interfere with this marriage, and Tong Ling easily became Mrs. Mu.
Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and very few people mention Tong Ling's background anymore.
She did not have any more children after that, but treated Mu Qing as her own daughter, and the mother and daughter had a deep bond.
Yan Sui thought to herself, "As expected, then Tong Ling's previous behavior makes sense."
She believed that he had recognized her from the beginning and that his approach to Zhang Junxiang to obtain shares was an attempt to make things difficult for her.
Yan Sui found it funny, not to mention that she didn't recognize the person.
Even if someone recognizes the shares, does that mean everyone can get Zhang Junxiang to give them away for free?
Zhang Junxiang didn't give her a gift, and she didn't have the money to buy one either.
However, the matter is in the past, and there's no need to bring it up again.
At this moment, Tong Yan said to Tong Yu, "Sister Yan Sui's attitude is very clear. She doesn't want to have anything to do with you. You should leave quickly."
Tong Yu's face was tense. This little brat has no manners at all.
"Tong Yan, don't reject me like this. I think your mother, if she were alive, would definitely want someone to take care of you."
"I don't need it!" Tong Yan growled, like a wolf cub that had gone berserk.
Tong Yu looked around and felt a lump in her throat as she saw the hostile looks in the eyes of the Yan family.
"In that case, I'll come again next time."
Tong Yan really wanted her to stop coming over, but he was mindful of Yan Sui's feelings.
After all, that was her biological mother.
As soon as Tong Yu left, Yan Sui turned and went into the house without the slightest hesitation.
Tian Xiangjuan followed closely behind, and seeing that she looked calm and composed, she felt relieved.
Whether or not she acknowledges her relatives is not important; what she's afraid of is that Yan Sui will feel uncomfortable.
"If you want to meet her..."
Yan Sui laughed, "Auntie, I've met her before."
Tian Xiangjuan was startled. "When?"
"The company I visited today is the Mu family's company, and Mrs. Mu is her."
Tong Ling not only did not reveal her identity, but was also very wary of her, which was enough to show her attitude.
Tian Xiangjuan was taken aback, inwardly cursing Tong Ling for being heartless. Seeing that Yan Sui didn't care, she didn't say anything more.
However, the news quickly spread throughout Changqing Village.
Before Yan Shunguo's seven-day mourning period had even passed, Tong Ling abandoned her child and left. At that time, the villagers scolded her for being heartless.
Unexpectedly, several years later, she returned and became the wife of a wealthy man.
"Then why is she back now? To take Yan Sui back to the city to live a good life?" Granny Zhang muttered to herself, thinking how blind Heaven truly was.
Grandma Zhao glanced at her and said, "Her biological mother didn't come; it was her aunt who came."
Yan Sui can earn a lot of money on her own, she doesn't need her biological mother to take care of her and make her live a good life.
Granny Zhang asked curiously, "I heard that her aunt also married a rich man. These two sisters are really capable."
Aunt Ruan wasn't interested in any of this and got up first.
The time has come; it's time to get started.
Grandma Zhao followed in her footsteps.
Not far from where they walked, they heard Old Lady Zhao call out, "Ruan Xiuhua, is that Gao Wen's car?"
Aunt Ruan looked up and realized that she couldn't possibly not recognize her own son's car.
But she kept walking, as if she hadn't seen anything.
Until Lao Gao jumped out of the car and ran towards her.
"Your son and daughter-in-law are making a scene about getting a divorce, you should go and try to persuade them!"
Aunt Ruan stopped in her tracks. "Why are you making a fuss about getting a divorce all of a sudden?"
Speaking of this, Lao Gao was full of indignation. "It's all because of Guo Lan! She tricked me out of my money, and instead of using it to buy a house, she gave the money to her younger brother!"
When things got out of hand, he realized that Gao Wen knew nothing about the money.
He went to confront Guo Lan, only to find out that she had already transferred the money to her family.
Guo Lan argued confidently, "My younger brother is getting married, so as his older sister, shouldn't I do something to show my support? Besides, we have a place to live, so why do we have to buy a house now? My brother will pay me back when he earns money in the future."
She didn't even consider that with Guo Qiang's good-for-nothing appearance, he would never be able to save up 300,000 in his lifetime!
The arguments between Gao Wen and Guo Lan escalated to the point of divorce.
He had no choice but to go to Aunt Ruan.
“This money was originally intended to buy a house, but now that the money is gone and the house can’t be bought, Gao Wen wants a divorce.”
Aunt Ruan said "Oh," and added, "Let them get divorced. My parents got divorced, so why can't they?"
Old Gao was so angry he almost fell over. "What are you saying? Is divorce something to be proud of? If you hadn't set such a bad example, those two wouldn't be getting a divorce."
Aunt Ruan didn't want to argue with him anymore, and said impatiently, "What exactly did you come to see me for? Stop talking nonsense."
Lao Gao cleared his throat, probably because he himself felt that what he was about to say was unreasonable, and he looked a little guilty.
"Don't you still have money? Make up for the money they need to buy a house."
