Chapter 186 Past Events
"Father and mother didn't blame you, they just couldn't stop worrying about you. They were worried that you were suffering out there, so even on their deathbed, they told me not to stop looking for you."
Liu Wendong's voice dropped.
When Liu heard this, she could clearly hear sobs in her throat.
Shen Qingqing and Liu sat aside and wiped their tears silently.
"Mom, now that you've reunited with your uncle, I'm sure your grandparents would be happy to know about this.
It’s a good thing that my uncle and mother have recognized each other as siblings today. Mom, don’t cry, or you’ll hurt your eyes.
Let's spend the next few days together as a family, and then we'll go to the capital."
Go and pay homage to your grandparents.
Shen Tang didn't say this, for fear of making Liu sad again.
After what happened in the afternoon, Liu naturally had no energy to prepare a family dinner, so she had to ask the cook to do the hard work.
After Liu and the others washed up, they gathered in the house to talk.
Liu Wendong’s long-cherished wish was finally fulfilled, and when he came to his senses, he naturally felt relaxed all over.
Looking at Liu again, she was even more overjoyed, with the corners of her mouth never falling.
It is difficult for a woman to make her way in the world, let alone she has been alone for so many years.
When she first drifted to Shenjia Village, she, a young girl, helped the villagers with work, such as cutting trees, building bridges and roads. She could do the work that men could do, and she also did the work that women could do.
Just to survive and be reunited with my family one day.
After marrying Shen Dashan, Liu did not dare to talk back in the face of Old Lady Shen's difficulties and could only endure it silently.
Because she was alone, unlike Wang, who had her parents to rely on when she was wronged.
No one knew that she actually envied Wang.
So after Shen Tang was born, even though she later became mentally ill and Old Lady Shen threatened her to abandon her daughter to the mountains or she would be kicked out of the Shen family, she never gave up.
Liu knew how it felt to be alone.
She had already suffered such hardships, and she didn't want her daughter to be stupid.
"When we got separated, I thought you would go all the way north, so my parents took me and headed north."
Liu Wendong talked about what happened back then.
More than ten years ago, my hometown suffered a disaster and I had no choice but to flee from famine.
The Liu family decided to migrate north, but after Liu got separated from them, they thought she would go north.
Therefore, the Liu family continued to search for people as they headed north.
Little did they know that Liu was young at the time and had never been far away, so she actually went all the way south.
So far, all over the world.
Therefore, no matter how much money and manpower Liu Wendong spent over the years, he could not find any news about the Liu family.
"Later, my parents took me to settle down in the north. A few years later, the army recruited people, so I joined.
Then, step by step, we got to where we are now.”
Liu Wendong held a teacup, and everyone sat around him, listening to him talk about things in the north.
Liu felt sad, after all, she had once blamed her family for not coming to look for her.
It turns out that her family has never given up on her over the years.
"I guess this is also God's will."
Madam Liu sighed.
"Speaking of which, it was thanks to my aunt that my uncle was able to reunite with my mother."
Shen Tang saw Madam Liu sighing and jokingly spoke.
Mrs. Liu blushed, thinking back to when she first suspected that her husband had someone else outside.
Shen Tang had a very good impression of this aunt.
After all, considering that Liu Wendong has been using his not-so-generous salary to support his family for more than ten years and even spent half of it on finding someone, Mrs. Liu is a very kind-hearted woman.
"I've wronged my sister-in-law over the years."
Liu looked at Madam Liu with eyes full of sincerity.
Mrs. Liu clenched her handkerchief embarrassedly.
At first, she was indeed dissatisfied with Liu Wendong's writing style, but later she came to terms with it.
What she liked at the beginning was Liu Wendong's sincerity. Moreover, Liu Wendong knew that his family was losing money in recent years, so he often went hunting and saved a lot of skins sent by him.
When I get to the capital, I will pick out two pieces of leather to make two cloaks for my niece.
Mrs. Liu thought so.
"But, sister, if the Madam hadn't recognized Tangtang, we wouldn't even dare to think that you were her mother."
Liu Wendong looked at Shen Tang who was leaning against Liu, his eyes showing pride.
Who would have thought that the person who donated quilts and cotton clothes to the soldiers at the border was his own niece.
Who would have thought that Liu Wendong was actually the uncle of Ning'an Hou.
Although Liu Wendong is an upright person, he would not rely on nepotism to gain power and profit.
But this news and relationship inexplicably made him feel happy.
I can already imagine his old buddies in the army being shocked when they told him the news.
The cook acted quickly, and the entire Shen family knew that General Liu from the capital was actually their wife's brother.
This meal is not only a welcoming ceremony, but also a ceremony for the two families to recognize each other as relatives.
The two families sat on opposite sides, and Liu Wendong insisted on dragging Shen Dashan to drink.
Born in the military, he naturally had a good alcohol tolerance, which was far superior to Shen Dashan's. After just a few drinks, Shen Dashan's eyes became blurry and he was helped away from the table.
After Shen Dashan left, Liu Wendong moved closer to Liu and spoke in a low voice.
"Sister, Shen Dashan has treated you badly over the years, just tell your brother and he will support you.
At worst, we can take Tangtang with us and divorce, and I will introduce you to some mighty soldiers in the army."
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she realized that her husband was also a little drunk, and hurriedly pulled Liu Wendong.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I think my brother-in-law is an honest and decent man. Although he doesn't talk much, he is considerate. You guys in the army should just stop bothering with those rough guys."
Then he turned to Liu and said:
"Don't mind, sister. Your brother is just happy. He's just worried that you're not doing well."
Mrs. Liu nodded.
She knew it all, and she wasn't angry at all, but happy instead.
Finally, someone supported her and gave her confidence, and her brother was actually a general.
"Oh, sister, I've been thinking about it. I heard you say that you were stranded in Shenjia Village and were rescued by Shenjia Village. If we have found you, we should thank the person who saved you.
Also, I should visit your elders at home."
It is their duty to repay the kindness received.
It would be a good opportunity to go to the Shen family and see how my sister has been living these years.
Mrs. Liu nodded.
Shen Tang was pestered by Liu Xun and Shen Wanwan.
"Atang, you and I are real sisters now! I was thinking of becoming sworn sisters with you before."
"Sister, tell me quickly, who do you like the most now and who are you closest to?"
Shen Wanwan originally liked Liu Xun very much, but suddenly the other party turned from her sister's friend to her sister's sister, and she was a little panicked.
She is not Ajie's only sister anymore!
"Little girl, Atang and I are naturally best friends."
Liu Xun wanted to tease Shen Wanwan.
As expected, Shen Wanwan's eyes became misty after hearing what Liu Xun said.
"Why are you teasing her?"
Shen Tang glared at Liu Xun.
"Wanwan is my only sister, and Xun is my only sister. I am just as good as you."
