古代闺秀被强高H

Chapter 719: Shen Li’s mother found them ——2

As if she was remembering the horrifying memory again, Sister Li closed her eyes and then opened them again only to have a look of dread in them. " My younger sister\'s temper and character were rotten to the core because of our parents doting, she simply thought that if she was not allowed to be happy then no one else deserved it as well, which was why when she found an axe in the courtyard of our house, she rushed at my daughter and swung the sharp axe at her neck, my daughter did not even get a chance to scream before her head was chopped off her neck."          

" Please tell me you sent her to the yamen because she deserved it!" Chen Mi said angrily to which Sister Li nodded and agreed, " Of course I did, there was no way I was going to let her move around freely after she killed my daughter. But of course, when I sent my sister to the Yamen, my parents told me that they were disappointed in me and my sister screamed at me for punishing her for my mistake. It has been years but my parents never once talked with me, in fact, I heard they even wiped my name from the family clan."      

Sister Li raised her head and then smiled at Chen Mi and Ye Liu as she said, " For a good deal of time I thought that maybe I was the one who was selfish enough, if I had given this job to my sister then something like this would have not happened to my daughter who was still so young and full of life when she was killed."      

" That was not your fault," Ye Liu told her as his brows scrunched up. " You earned this job and she did not, she had no right to snatch it from you much less kill your daughter when she did not get what she wanted."      

" You are right, it was not my fault but this was something that I understood much later and only because my husbands were by my side," Sister Li sighed as she rubbed the red strings that were tied on her wrist and then smiled placatingly, " They were the ones who stood strong when I could not along with my official husband. The three of them stood by our side and showed us that there was more to stay alive for even if we lost our daughter."      

She raised her head and then patted her chest, " And thanks to them I was able to overcome my sadness and so did my husband, now we have five daughters who are studying in the academy. I am not trying to boast, all I am saying is that during this time there will be times when you will get tired of your wife and the brother who lost his child but no matter how tired you become, do not let go of them …one day they will come over their sadness. You understand what I am saying right?"     

It looks like Sister Li saw their heavy minds even when they did not say anything.      

" Thank you for your kind words and advice, Sister Li," Ye Liu bowed his head in gratitude. " I will make sure to keep your words in my heart."      

" Me too, I will keep holding on to them even when they want me to let them go," Chen Mi chimed in as well as determined flames lit up in his eyes, he will no longer look at his wife with a scared expression and try to be as cheery as possible.     

" Well, arent you two the sweetest," Sister Li chuckled just as the server returned to their meal. " Now eat something you all look dead on your feet."      

Maybe it was because the elders were no longer as gloomy as before the children also got their spirits lifted. Little Bun finished his meal and so did Yu Mai who refused to eat at home where the air was too stuffy. Ye Liu and Chen Mi looked at the active kids and realised that it was most probably them and Yu Dong\'s gloominess that was irking the kids which only made them even more determined to get everyone back on their feet.      

  " Thank you for looking out for us." Ye Liu thanked Sister Li again who cleared up the haze in his mind once again only to have his gratitude waved aside as Sister Li laughed and said, " Yu Dong is like a sissy from another daddy to me, which makes you two my brothers in law, there is no need to thank me. Just come back with your family to have a meal here when everything becomes better and don\'t worry about that mer either, I am sure that my boss will make sure that he suffers just as much as you all are suffering, maybe more since my boss does not like it when people harm their children."      

" Thank your boss——"      

" There you are!" Chen Mi was still speaking when there was a loud shout from behind that attracted the attention of the onlookers as well as Lang who immediately stood in front of Chen Mi and Ye Liu defensively.      

They all turned to look at the elderly woman who was drunk and pointing at them with a frown as Ye Liu asked, " Who are you? And what are you doing?"      

" Who am I? Hic? How dare a mere Concubine act all haughty in front of the mother of the official husband?" The woman snapped making Ye Liu and Chen Mi frown even further.      

Mother of the official husband? So this was, Brother Li\'s mother?
