Chapter 339 You're Too Selfish

"Do you think I, as her mother, wouldn't know what kind of life Nuannuan has been living all these years?"

“I remember all the unfortunate things that happened to her very clearly! But I really don’t have the courage to stand in front of Nuannuan.”

"You've read so many books since you were little! Don't you know the saying 'A mother's love makes her strong'?"

"If I were you, I would have resolutely chosen to stay by Nuannuan's side instead of leaving her to be raised by others."

"Eldest sister, we were all too weak back then! We had no way to resist Emperor Xia! You know just how strong his desire for control is!"

"I think you've been using this as a shield all these years, haven't you? I don't believe he would keep such a close watch on you, even when he's sleeping."

When Yu Ying heard her elder sister say these words, she couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Is it really because I'm too fragile that all these bad things happened? If only I had taken my daughter Xia Rong (Nuan Nuan) with me back then.

Then she probably wouldn't have become so delirious, right? And Mu Long's leg wouldn't have been injured by Emperor Xia, right?

My eldest sister must harbor some resentment towards me for this, right? If none of these bad things had happened, she would probably be happily laughing with her grandchildren right now.

I heard that my eldest sister's granddaughter (Yingying) is still missing! Whenever I think of this, I feel very guilty.

I really hope that the cute little girl is alright! I hope she'll be back with us soon.

"Mother, please stop criticizing Aunt Yuying! Don't worry! Your precious grandchildren are all safe and sound in Xiawei."

"Ah! I remember that when I ordered someone to bring your whole family to live in the Yang residence, I took it upon myself to sell your house in Xiawei."

"But I had someone buy it back from you. To avoid arousing your suspicion, I had one of my close friends stay there."

"Mu'er, I sold the house you and Longzhen lived in Xiawei without even discussing it with you. Are you angry with your mother about this?"

"No! I think the reason you did that, Mother, was to discourage us from moving back to Xiawei!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Mother is the best. Mu'er knows what I'm thinking! You have no idea how much I missed you and Longzhen when you were away from the Yang residence."

“Mother, I didn’t see that coming! In my memory, you were either busy taking care of the White Wolf or going to the Black Hall every few days.”

"Oh dear! What's wrong with you, Mu Long? Ever since your feet were injured by Emperor Xia, your mouth has become so venomous."

"Hmm! Mother, don't you think Mu Long is getting more and more dejected? He's no longer the spirited young man we remember!"

"Brother, if one day you were crippled like me and had to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair, I think you would be even more despondent than I am!"

After Mu Long finished speaking, his gaze involuntarily fell on the cat that Yu Qin was holding in her arms.

I wonder if that little guy is doing well with Zhuzhu? Is he still as naughty as before?

The kitten that Yuqin was holding in her arms was being stared at by Mulong, and it meowed happily.

"Alright! What's wrong with you, little one? You were fine just a moment ago, why are you throwing a tantrum now?"

Seeing the kitten she was holding looking so uneasy, Yuqin instinctively took off the pearl necklace hanging around her neck.

"Elder sister, what are you doing? Don't you know that this necklace is a token of your love with your brother-in-law?"

To prevent her kitten from scratching Yuqin, Yuying immediately took the kitten into her arms.

“I remember our little darling loved playing with this pearl necklace that I wore around my neck! Whenever it was being grumpy, I would always take it off to amuse it.”

"It immediately quieted down! Little sister, don't you think the kitten your older sister raises is very intelligent and understanding?"

"Oh? Eldest sister, when did you get a kitten? I remember you used to dislike cats the most, always complaining that they were so dirty?"

"Yes, I did have that thought before, but after experiencing some things, I realized that cats are very intelligent animals."

"I probably don't need to say much about this, because over the years, the cat has been the one who has been by your side the most!"

"Hmm! Elder sister, I noticed you've aged quite a bit since we last met! Can you tell me what happened?"

"And Mu Long, isn't your Longsheng Street business doing very well? How come you have time to chat with us here now?"

"Don't you want to go to Longsheng Street and take care of everything?"

"Auntie, don't you think you sometimes meddle too much? You just need to do your own thing properly! Why do you have to interfere in my affairs?"

When Yuqin heard what Mulong said, she couldn't help but lower her face.

"How could you become so disrespectful? She's your own aunt, how could you talk to her like that?"

"Heh! If she hadn't insisted on her own way back then, none of this would have happened today. The Longsheng Street I founded would still be in my hands as well as before."

When Mu Long finished speaking, he couldn't help but shed tears silently. It is said that men don't easily shed tears, unless they are deeply saddened.

Yuqin heard Mulong crying and then looked up at Mulong sitting in the wheelchair.

Only then did I realize that Mu Long had aged considerably! Yes! No one is a saint. After such a series of setbacks, who can maintain a good mindset to view everything?

But losing Shenglong Street and Heirentang is actually a very fortunate thing for us.

Aren't all the very wealthy people being dragged into public denunciation meetings these days? And her husband was dragged into such a meeting precisely because he was the head of Hei Rentang.

If we had listened to Long'er earlier and disbanded Hei Rentang, would none of this have happened?

Perhaps the Yang family's old residence is still intact in this world? And surely my Mu'er wouldn't do something as rebellious as burning down the Yang family's old residence?

But in this world, there really is no such thing as regretting buying something!
