Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 194: Chapter 126-127: Revelations / Wedding (Part 2)

”Yeah, this is quite a coincidence.” Now that it was just family around, Wen Xin spoke honestly: ”The Yu Family has been doing well these past few years and has been thinking of forming an alliance through marriage with the Ye Family. Their first choice, of course, was Ye Xuan.

Considering that previous marriage proposals had been rejected, the Yu Family weighed their options and decided that the only one suitable for Ye Xuan was the second daughter of the second eldest of the Yu Family, Yu Na. Wen Tong said the girl was smart and beautiful, a year older than Ye’er, and it was precisely because of her age that they temporarily refrained from proposing.

Then suddenly, news broke out that Ye Xuan was going to be engaged to Ye’er, so the Yu Family approached your Little Aunt to inquire if it was arranged by your Grandpa.

Your little uncle said, for all these years, the old man did not allow anyone to leak the news that I was estranged from the family. Anyone who leaked it would be immediately kicked out of the Wen Family.

Your Little Aunt dared not reveal this, but she did truthfully say that the engagement wasn’t arranged by your Grandpa, causing your little uncle to start arguing with her over this.”

”Now I understand, Little Aunt surely hopes for an alliance between the Ye Family and the Yu Family. She has no children and never really felt a sense of belonging with the Wen Family, right?” Luo Ye quickly grasped the situation.

Wen Xin nodded in agreement: ”Yeah, Wen Tong and she often argue precisely because she always places her maiden family above her in-laws. Whatever happens in the Wen Family, she informs her natal family first. What Wen Tong hates most about her is exactly this. This time he’s so furious because he guessed there must be a hidden agenda and worries that Yu Miao will sabotage the plans!”

Luo Ye suddenly broke out in cold sweat, feeling lucky that the matter was settled and relieved that Mom was going to apologize and return. Otherwise, getting exposed would have been quite easy. Why did she overlook these intricate relationships among the big families? But under those circumstances, there really was no other choice, and on further thought, even if exposed, it wouldn’t matter as long as the Ye Family acknowledged it. The matter would seem quite baffling to anyone else. With this in mind, Mou Ye regained her composure.

”Is it that little uncle can’t have children?” After asking, she felt her dad glare at her, and Mou Ye grinned, ”Mom can choose not to answer.”

Luo Feng’s mouth twitched; his little sister really dared to ask!

Wen Xin gave her daughter a stern look: ”You girl, if your little uncle heard this, he wouldn’t let you off. Yu Miao suffered a miscarriage during her first pregnancy and was unable to conceive after that.

Wen Tong has it tough. Yu Miao is extremely suspicious and jealous. She follows him everywhere and has frequent bouts of paranoia. If it weren’t for Wen Tong’s loyalty, they would have divorced long ago.”

”Poor little uncle!” Luo Ye hugged Wen Xin: ”But little uncle did indirectly reveal something – that Grandpa has always been thinking about Mom, he just doesn’t want to admit it!”

Luo Zhenggang nodded in agreement: ”That’s right, what Ye’er said makes sense. If Dad were really angry with you, he wouldn’t say that whoever leaks the news must leave the Wen Family!”

”There’s no need to worry about my return home. I have made full mental preparations and won’t be a cowardly turtle.”

Grandpa Luo frowned slightly: ”Wen Xin, Wen Tong’s visit today was probably to covertly inform us about the Yu Family’s affairs without Yu Miao knowing, but is there a chance that the child he brought might spill the beans? If this issue causes more conflict between them, that would be too unfair to Wen Tong.”

”Wen Tong bringing Jingjing out must be a cover; I guess his argument with Yu Miao was also deliberate. My brother wouldn’t do anything he wasn’t confident about, Dad, don’t worry!”

Luo Feng, who had been quietly listening, suddenly said: ”Mom, I think little uncle would be better off divorcing Little Aunt. Such a marriage has no meaning at all.”

Luo Ye leaned in close to Luo Feng with a smile: ”Bro, see? How important it is to choose a virtuous wife. You mustn’t choose the wrong person in the future.”

”Ye’er, a big part of little uncle and Little Aunt’s unhappiness must be because their marriage was a union of interests. With little real affection between them, they came together to carry on family responsibilities. How much happiness can there be? Don’t worry about your brother; instead, think more about yourself. Marriages in great families are too troublesome!”

”Bro...” Luo Ye stared dumbfounded at her beloved brother, speechless.

”Song Meng and Pan Jie are getting married on the 3rd; Ye’er and Feng’er, prepare in advance.” Luo Zhenggang left the room with a smile on his face, clearly pleased with his son’s attitude!

Luo Ye pursed her lips speechlessly, she and her brother were to be the bridesmaid and groomsman, and Wen Xin had prepared everything well in advance. This was the third time her dad reminded them; was he having a premature midlife crisis?
