Spring River Chasing the Moon

When Chen Lili hurried home from school, Zhu Yuying had already left.

Chen Ze and Luo Youyou were in the studio, and only Li Muzhi was sitting in the living room.

"Mom, have you told Professor Zhu? What was her... reaction?"

Chen Lili was a little worried. Although they had a relationship with the Nan family through their mother, the gap between them and the Nan family was still too big.

She was afraid that Professor Zhu would think that her family had ulterior motives. She could do anything for Luo Zhong, but if her parents were questioned because of her, she would owe them even more.

"Don't worry, everything went smoothly, thanks to Youyou's cleverness."

Li Muzhi pointed in the direction of the studio, but Chen Lili didn't understand what she meant.

"Have you ever seen Luo Zhong's mother holding a jade pendant in the Luo family?"

Chen Lili shook her head. In fact, except for the period when she just got married to Luo Zhong, because she didn't know Luo Zhong's situation at home and wanted to be filial to his parents, she had always been respectful to Yang Qian, hoping that her small family would also be respected.

But later she found out that in this family, only her father-in-law was truly good to Luo Zhong, so she didn't force him, and at the same time she only showed the proper courtesy to Yang Qian.

When I go back to the Luo family, I just say hello, do my own housework, and try not to have too much contact with Yang Qian.

"What jade pendant? I don't know."

Chen Lili was curious.

"Youyou was wearing a jade pendant today, and Sister Yuying happened to see it."

"Yes, she heard from Yang Qian that the jade pendant originally belonged to Ah Zhong, and that Yang Qian wanted to give it to Luo Tian, so she secretly took it out, brought it to Nancheng, and kept it for herself."

"Youyou said that Dad's things can't be given to Uncle. You see, children actually understand everything. Youyou is a brave and careful child. Without this jade pendant, I don't think Sister Yuying would have accepted this matter so quickly."

"This kid is hiding something so big and not telling us."

Listening to Li Muzhi's words, Chen Lili's heart was beating fast. She never thought that her daughter was such a bold and delicate child.

She couldn't imagine what kind of mood Luo Youyou was in when he got the jade pendant and secretly hid it by himself, carrying this secret with him and not telling anyone.

Chen Lili was wondering if Luo Youyou would think that secretly taking Yang Qian's things was wrong, so she didn't dare tell the adults and could only digest these things by herself.

Thinking of this, Chen Lili couldn't help it anymore. She quietly walked to the door of the studio and opened it quietly. She saw Luo Youyou sitting next to Chen Ze, her small figure concentrating on studying.

She suddenly felt very moved. It seemed that she had done too little as a mother, a wife, and a daughter.

In the Luo family, she clearly knew about the injustice done to Luo Zhong, but she always thought about Luo Zhong's difficulties. Although she felt a million grievances in her heart, she never directly confronted Yang Qian's bias, questioned her, and demanded justice for her family.

Chen Lili was in a low mood, so she didn't open the door to disturb Luo Youyou.

He closed the door silently, returned to the living room, sat next to Li Muzhi, and leaned against her.

"Mom, don't you think I'm useless? It seems like I can't do anything."

Li Muzhi knew that for Chen Lili, who had been doing smoothly for more than 20 years, the recent series of events would be a blow to her.

"Everyone has their place. You are soft-hearted and don't like intrigue. Plus, your brothers and sisters are all harmonious in our family. It's inevitable that there will be family conflicts, and you don't know how to handle them."

"But you respect your parents and love your children. Luo Zhong's job requires him to not go home often, so you take care of the family for him. He gives all his money to Yang Qian, so you work hard for your own little family."

"We all think people like Yang Qian are not good, but for Luo Zhong, you still treat her with kindness and give her the greatest respect. This is rare for you."

"What's happening now isn't your fault, it's Yang Qian's fault. Don't punish your own kindness with the evil of others."
