Capítulo 1817: Chapter 1817: Divorce at Last (Part 3)
“Every year, your eldest aunt brings us to buy several sets of clothes, buys essential supplies for Xiaoqun and to take to school. Even now, the house you and Xiaoqun are living in was issued by her work unit. To facilitate Xiaoqun’s studies, Mom, ask yourself honestly, if Jiaojiao were with us, would you treat her the sa way?”
“And rember last year, when I got into college, it was my first ti in Beidu, unfamiliar with everything. Big Brother took to report to the school and arranged accommodation for . During holidays, he was afraid I’d be alone here and feel bad, so he’d always take to Grandpa Shu’s house to celebrate with them. Aunt Shu Wen used to send us brothers practice books when we were little, later she also sent clothes for Jiaojiao, including us brothers. It’s been like this for years.”
“Mom…” Ruan Feng’s voice was almost choked with emotion: “A person can’t live without a conscience…”
“You always used to say how this and that about Second Aunt, but think about yourself, how are you any different from her?”
Wu Le turned pale and staggered back several steps until she collapsed onto the edge of the bed.
She looked at Ruan Feng through tear-filled eyes, struck speechless by his barrage of questioning: “But… but, your eldest uncle’s family doesn’t lack this money. I’m just doing it for you two brothers. What does Mom need so much money for, why a house, if not for you and Xiaoqun… And besides, before, wasn’t it true that your eldest uncle did give your third uncle money to buy a house, so why can’t it be the sa for us?”
“How can it be the sa?!” Seeing that Wu Le was still unrepentant at this critical mont, Ruan Feng shouted angrily: “You are better off than Uncle and Aunt, you have money, why don’t you think about giving them so, since you don’t lack this little money anyway!”
“Back then, the money Big Uncle gave for Third Uncle’s house was with a promissory note, which needs to be repaid bit by bit in the future!” Kneeling next to her, Ruan Feng buried his head in her hands. They say n shed tears only with great difficulty, and never easily kneel, yet at this mont, he had done both.
“Mom, even if it’s for my sake, can you stop this ss? Do you really want not to be able to hold my head high in front of my brothers in the future?”
“If you really want to buy a house, your son will buy it for you later. If you want it now, I’ll borrow from Big Uncle, just like the Third Uncle’s family with a promissory note, and slowly pay it back later. Please, can you stop this?”
Feeling the wetness from Ruan Feng’s tears on her hand, Wu Le felt as if a sudden realization had hit her, and tears ran from her eyes. Had she… really done wrong?
“Xiaofeng…” Wu Le gently stroked the head resting on her knee, tears flowing like rain: “I’m sorry, Mom didn’t know… Mom just wanted you brothers to live a little better.”
Wu Le was afraid.
She was truly afraid.
Since the mont issues appeared in her marriage with Ruan Jianmin, her heart had been filled with constant fear.
The Ruan Family has four branches. The eldest is wealthy and influential, with Ruan Hao and Ruan Jie both outstanding, Ruan Jiaojiao loved and pampered by many, and she married into the Duan Family, promising an enviable future.
The second branch, Ruan Jiandang, had divorced, but having shed the burden of Liao Zhaoji, now he and his new wife are enjoying thriving days, not only buying a house but also budgeting for a car. Ruan Jun and Ruan Chi are very successful, with Ruan Chi reportedly earning thousands from just one case.
