Chapter 531 Yu Li's Decision
Chapter 531 Yu Li's Decision
"Dad, look." Yu Mengmeng handed her own painting to He Yuzhu as if to seek credit.
The picture above shows a happy family having a picnic together under a tree.
He Yuzhu was very surprised after seeing the painting, "Mengmeng, you said you are better at painting landscapes, but I didn't expect you can also paint figures so vividly."
"I just figured this out on my own." Yu Mengmeng was very happy to receive He Yuzhu's praise.
"Mengmeng, come with your dad to Hong Kong. I'll find the best teacher to teach you how to paint."
He Yuzhu then looked at Yu Li and said, "Lili, Mengmeng has such a great talent, she can't just be buried like this."
After hearing what He Yuzhu said, Yu Li glanced at Yu Mengmeng and started to feel conflicted again.
To be honest, she has been thinking about this problem for some time, but she doesn't know how to tell her parents.
But what He Yuzhu said did make sense. Yu Mengmeng has shown great talent at such a young age, and she should not delay her daughter's future.
"If Mengmeng is willing to follow you to Hong Kong, I will naturally not stop her." Yu Li said, "It all depends on Mengmeng's own wishes."
"Lily, haven't you made up your mind yet?"
Yu Li shook her head. "Yi Zhao and Yi Lun are both still attending college in Beijing. I can't just ignore them."
"These two children are already adults, they can take care of themselves." He Yuzhu persuaded, "Besides, aren't your parents still in Sijiu City? They have relatives here too.
What's more, you can go back to Sijiu City to visit them every month."
"Let me think about it." Yu Li looked at He Yuzhu and said, "Brother Zhuzi, I will give you an answer as soon as possible."
"Lily, I don't mean to force you."
"Of course I know." Yu Li nodded, "I was the one who was hesitant."
Yu Mengmeng looked at her parents, her heart also filled with complicated emotions.
She knew that this decision was very important to her and might change her life.
She likes painting and really hopes to go to Hong Kong to study with He Yuzhu.
But she also didn't want to leave her mother and brother.
So Yu Mengmeng also fell silent, and the excited expression on her face disappeared.
Yu Li quickly noticed the change in her daughter's mood. She walked to Yu Mengmeng with some guilt, gently stroked her hair, and said.
"Mengmeng, I'm sorry for you and all of you kids. You don't have to rush into making a decision. You can think about it slowly. I will respect your choice."
"Yes, Mengmeng." He Yuzhu also said to Mengmeng: "Even if you don't go to Hong Kong, Dad will try his best to find a good teacher for you in Beijing."
"Yeah." Yu Mengmeng nodded.
Yan Yichao and Yan Yiluan, who were standing by, naturally also saw this scene.
Yan Yiluan came to Yan Yichao and whispered, "Brother, shouldn't we be so selfish?"
Yan Yizhao glanced at Yan Yiluan and said nothing.
Yan Yiluan continued, "I feel like Mom wants to go, but she has too many concerns.
I'm sure you know how hard it has been for mom to raise us all these years.
Now this man is back and wants to take his mother with him, which proves that their relationship is still very good.
Moreover, my sister will get a better education if she goes to Hong Kong with me, so as her brother, we should also think about her future."
Yan Yichao naturally knew this truth in his heart, but he just couldn't get over it.
But he knew that what his brother said was right. Even if he didn't recognize this father, there was no reason for him to stop his mother from wanting to be happy.
He must not let his selfishness affect his sister's future development.
So Yan Yizhao said calmly: "When we get back, let's go talk to mom together."
"Okay." Yan Yiluan nodded.
After returning home, the two brothers went to look for Yu Mengmeng first.
"Mengmeng." Yan Yizhao waved at Yu Mengmeng.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
Yan Yizhao looked at Yu Mengmeng and asked, "Mengmeng, I want to ask you, without considering other people, do you want to go to Hong Kong?"
Yu Mengmeng stared at her elder brother, and after a while, nodded and continued.
"But I don't want to leave you."
"What if I let Mom go to Hong Kong with you?"
"Brother..." Yu Mengmeng looked at Yan Yizhao and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Mengmeng, I know what you want to say, but I am already an adult and can live independently." Yan Yizhao said, "Your brother and I both think so. Since you and mom both want to go to Hong Kong, don't worry about us.
As for mom, I will go and convince her."
"Brother, let's go together." Yu Mengmeng looked at Yan Yizhao and said, "I don't know why you are so hostile to Dad. In my opinion, he has tried very hard to compensate us.
I also asked my mother about what happened back then. She chose to stay, and my father really wanted to take her with him.
I think we can’t interfere in adult affairs, but I have felt how good my father has been to me during this period of time.”
Yan Yizhao touched Yu Mengmeng's head and smiled. He could never learn his sister's free and easy style.
"Let's go." Yan Yizhao brought his younger brother and sister to find Yu Li.
"Yi Zhao, what happened to you three siblings?" Yu Li smiled gently at her children.
"Mom, we want to talk to you about returning to Hong Kong..."
"So, do you really support Mom going to Hong Kong?" Yu Li's eyes were a little moist.
"Mom, Yiluan and I are already adults. You don't have to worry about us all day long. You should pursue your own life." Yan Yizhao said calmly.
"Besides, he seems to be quite capable. If you go to Hong Kong, you will surely live a better life than in this city."
"Yichao, Yilun, thank you." Yu Li reached out and hugged her three children, tears streaming down her face.
With the support of her own children, Yu Li felt much more relieved.
As for her parents, Yu Li didn't even think about trying to persuade them.
When the time comes, she and Haitang can go back often to visit.
After Yu Li figured it out, she told He Yuzhu and Yu Haitang about her decision.
"Sister, are you really willing to go to Hong Kong with us?" Yu Haitang jumped and danced excitedly while hugging Yu Li.
"Yeah." Yu Li nodded with a smile, "The kids are right. It's time for me to pursue my own life."
"Lily, I'm so happy." He Yuzhu walked forward and hugged the two sisters, "I have been looking forward to this day for a long time."
