The sunset faded and darkness fell.
The Shen family's house was brightly lit, and Zhou Yunwan was standing at the gate. Today was obviously no different from any other time before, but she felt inexplicably nervous.
Perhaps because he saw that she was slow to catch up, Shen Yanli, who was half a step faster than her, stopped and turned his head to look at her: "Wanwan, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Zhou Yunwan took a deep breath, shook her head, and followed.
Walking into the living room and looking around, Zhou Yunwan realized that Wu Yi had returned with her two children at some point, and next to her was a strange middle-aged woman who looked about 40% similar to Wu Yi. She must be Wu Yi's mother.
Seeing them coming back, a small figure immediately rushed up, Chen Chuan hugged Zhou Yunwan's thigh, and said with a smile: "Aunt, Chuan Chuan missed you so much."
Zhou Yunwan was stunned for a moment, then immediately squatted down and touched his soft little face, responding enthusiastically: "Aunt misses Chuanchuan too."
As she spoke, she also hugged Shen Yue, who followed her, into her arms, and nodded his nose with a smile: “Yueyue, don’t you miss your aunt?”
Shen Yue blushed, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded: "I want to."
...
...
Shen Yue's personality was like his father, Shen Yanxiang, not good at speaking and not talking much, but his eyes sparkled when he looked at Zhou Yunwan, and it was obvious that he missed her very much.
Before Zhou Yunwan joined the art troupe, she would play with the two brothers after school. The two brothers were young and easy to coax, and they didn't have many thoughts, so it didn't take long for her to establish a deep friendship with them.
An adult and two children laughed and played for a while, and the atmosphere was peaceful.
The serious atmosphere at the other end of the living room was also somewhat broken up by the laughter from this end.
Wu Yi secretly pulled her mother's sleeve and whispered, "Mom, you go back first."
"I go back? If I go back, when will the issue between you and Shen Yanxiang be resolved?" Ma Yuanmei sneered in disappointment. Her daughter was good in every way except that she was soft-hearted and soft-hearted. She was so soft that she would just swallow her grievances when bullied by others.
The woman outside her husband's house was just about to take over his nest, but she turned a blind eye and didn't dare to do anything. She was so cowardly that she ran to her parents' house and lived there for so long, but she didn't even dare to ask for an explanation.
Hearing this, Wu Yi's face changed. When they were at home, Ma Yuanmei just said that she was worried about her bringing the child back alone, so she sent her back to Shen's house and left, so Wu Yi agreed to let her come together. Now it seems that she is going to make a scene.
Wu Yi glanced at Guo Yulin and Shen Dewen who were sitting opposite her, pursed her lips and pleaded, "I'll take care of it myself, Mom, just go back."
"No, you told me a few months ago that you would figure it out on your own, but you haven't done it yet. If I don't care anymore, are you really planning to divorce Shen Yanxiang?"
Ma Yuanmei did not deliberately lower her voice. Almost everyone heard their conversation. Shock was written on everyone's face. Wu Yi wanted to divorce Shen Yanxiang?
Wu Yi felt the gazes coming from all directions, especially the confused and sad eyes of the two children. Her face suddenly darkened to the extreme: "Mom! What are you saying in front of the children?"
Seeing her daughter getting angry, Ma Yuanmei realized that she had said the wrong thing and shut up.
"Aunt, what does grandma mean by that? Are mom and dad going to get a divorce?"
Zhou Yunwan felt the slight force on the corner of her clothes, and realized at this moment that the atmosphere in the Shen family was tense, and that it was not appropriate for the two children to stay in such an occasion.
As for her and Shen Yanli's matter, it will probably have to be postponed for a while.
“Chuanchuan, you must have heard it wrong… Auntie hasn’t seen you and Yueyue for a long time. Can you go upstairs and play with your auntie?” Zhou Yunwan picked up Chen Chuan and gave a look to Chen Yanli beside her.
Shen Yanli immediately understood what she meant, and each of them held a child, greeted the people over there, and carried the children upstairs.
When Wu Yi saw the child being taken away, she felt relieved but also a little embarrassed.
To be honest, she didn't want to bring up what happened between her and Shen Yanxiang in front of Shen's father and mother so quickly. After all, it was not a glorious thing.
When Zhou Yunwan and Shen Yanli disappeared from his sight, Guo Yulin clenched his fists and asked in a gentle tone, "Mother-in-law, what did you mean by what you just said?"
Wu Yi pulled her mother aside and spoke before her: "It's nothing. My mother is just talking nonsense. Don't take it to heart."
She pulled the corners of her mouth, but no matter how you looked at it, the smile seemed a little forced.
Guo Yulin naturally saw it, but it was obvious that she didn't want to say it, so she could only look at Ma Yuanmei next to her: "Mother-in-law, what happened between the two children? Tell us, then we can find a way to solve it, right?"
Hearing this, Ma Yuanmei ignored her daughter's attempts to stop her and said loudly, "Although the marriage between Wu Yi and Shen Yanxiang is a marriage between our Wu family and your Shen family, Wu Yi has given birth to two big fat boys for your Shen family over the years and raised them to adulthood. She has done a lot of hard work, if not merit."
"I believe that our Wu Yi has never done anything to let down your Shen family, nor has she done anything to let down Shen Yanxiang."
"But how has Chen Yanxiang treated our Wu Yi over the years? He has been working away from home for many years and has only been home a few times. He has been staying in Hai City for several years and has left his wife and children at his parents' home without caring about them at all."
When Guo Yulin heard this, he frowned and couldn't help but want to say a few words for his son, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips, because what Ma Yuanmei said was true. Shen Yanxiang was indeed very career-oriented, and it was also true that he didn't go home often.
But what she said about Shen Yanxiang abandoning everything was not true. Shen Yanxiang handed over all his monthly salary to Wu Yi, leaving himself only enough money to live on.
Chen Yanxiang is taking the difficult road of a career in politics. He is at the rising stage of his career, and he cannot take care of both work and family.
"If a couple doesn't live together, can that be called living together? Some time ago, Chen Yanxiang said that he would be transferred back to Beijing for work, and I was happy for Wu Yi for a while. Who would have thought that there would be no follow-up after so long."
Hearing this, Guo Yulin couldn't help but interrupt: "It's not that Yan Xiang won't be transferred back, it's that there's a problem with his work over there, so it will be delayed for a while..."
"Bullshit!" Ma Yuanmei snorted heavily and cursed: "It's obvious that Chen Yanxiang has a home in Jing City and another home in Hai City with another woman, so he doesn't want to come back!"
