Mo Yan walked to the stone table, sat down, and then looked at Xu Youran.
"I heard that you've seen through the vanities of the world all these years and no longer concern yourself with the affairs of the household?"
Xu Youran dared not answer and remained silent.
"Do you know what happened in this mansion, who is in charge of the household, how your daughter has been all these years, and what you think about her?"
Xu Youran knew that if her mother-in-law came, she would definitely ask these questions.
Years ago, my mother-in-law was injured and stayed in her hometown to recuperate. In the last two years, her two daughters have reached marriageable age, so she has come to visit them.
Lin Ling was naturally in charge of the affairs of the mansion. She had seen through it all and didn't care anymore. Her gaze turned to Xiao Yudie beside her.
Xu Youran felt a pang of heartache for this daughter. She often visited, but she rarely saw her, which she felt was pointless. Seeing her daughter reminded her of Xiao Minghui and the time when they were still quite loving.
Happy times are always fleeting, and many things can easily change. There is no such thing as true feelings that never change.
When she saw Xiao Yudie, her eyes filled with tears. She didn't know why, even though so much time had passed, even though she had told herself not to care, even though she had told herself to let go, her eyes still welled up with tears at this moment.
"Rain Butterfly..."
Xiao Yudie had indescribable feelings about her mother; those feelings were strange and complicated.
There was heartache, sadness, and a little resentment. Xiao Yufei had always been protected by Lin Ling, while she only had herself. Her mother was in this mansion, but she didn't protect her.
Whenever she was wronged, she wanted to cry to her mother, but she said she had already seen through the illusions of the world.
The reason she didn't want to explain was, as her grandmother said, that explaining was useless. Her father was convinced that she was that kind of person, that she was the culprit, and that no matter how she explained, no matter what the truth was, it wouldn't matter.
She had also wanted to come here and let her mother make the decision, but her mother said there was nothing she could do. She said that the man no longer loved her and would not trust her words at all. She said her heart was dead.
From then on, Xiao Yudie told herself that men were untrustworthy and that she couldn't place all her hopes on them; it was completely useless, utterly useless.
Of course, she also hoped that marriage would allow her to leave this home and start a new life.
"Daughter greets mother,"
Later, Xiao Yudie had no expectations of her mother and would no longer come over to foolishly take her out.
It's enough to come once during holidays; people don't really look forward to it or have that much enthusiasm for it.
She had thought her mother was having a hard time, but after coming in, she realized that although the place was small, everything inside was exquisite, and the only one who was having a hard time was her.
At that moment, Xiao Yudie suddenly felt a little ridiculous. She thought her mother was suffering a lot.
Actually, only she is suffering.
She just said that her mother had her reasons...
But she didn't want to know the reason for her suffering anymore; everything was meaningless now, truly meaningless.
Xu Youran was stunned for a moment. In the past, when her daughter saw her, her eyes were always filled with joy, expectation and surprise.
But now, why is all that's left is sadness and grief?
"Now is not the time for you and your daughter to reunite. Xu Youran, you don't need to act so sad. As far as I know, Xiao Minghui has not restricted your freedom. It is you who do not want to see your daughter. It is you who have confined yourself to this small courtyard."
Xu Youran, I'm very disappointed in you!
Xu Youran was stunned. She looked at her mother-in-law in disbelief. "Mother, why?"
Minghui doesn't like me, he has no feelings for me, so I let him have his way and respected his feelings. Where did I go wrong?
She's already retreated to this small courtyard, refusing to inquire about or listen to their affairs, so why is she still disappointed in him?
"Is there only one man in your life? Do you only know about romantic love? You say you've seen through the world, but do you really see through it now? I feel like you're a selfish person."
You only care about yourself; you don't care about your daughter, this family, or your relatives.
As the legal wife, everything she did made people think that this person was an idiot and deserved it!
