Imperial Commander: His Pretty Wife Is Spoiled Rotten

Yun Xi knew that even though Aunt Lin had waited at the village entrance for a year, her mother didn't turn up.

If there had not been an accident, a mother with a child would not have broken her promise.

Her mother had probably disappeared since then.

"How did you survive that year?"

"At that time, spring plowing was taking place. I was helping out in the fields with a few women in the village. I didn't ask for anything else but a meal. I waited for Mistress at the village entrance for a year, and finally, I gradually accepted the fact that she wouldn't come back. Later, my hometown sent news that my old father had passed away and asked me to go home for his funeral. I had no choice but to go back to my hometown. When I left, I secretly went to the Liang family to visit Little Miss. At that time, your uncle was holding your hand while walking in the courtyard. I could tell that he really loved this child."

"Yes, uncle dotes on me a lot..." When she thought about those years, Yun Xi laughed bitterly, a sour feeling filling her heart.

The memories of her previous life and the twenty years of her past life were fuzzy. However, after her rebirth, the memories that she had lost played clearly in her mind like an old film.

It was precisely because of her uncle's love that Chen Lixue hated her so much. The mother and daughter tried their best to make her do their bidding and even hit and scolded her.

Xiao Jinglin looked up slightly. His face was dark and his whole body seemed to be shrouded in a cloak of gray. He looked at Yun Xi with heartache and self-blame.

It should have been his responsibility as a father, but he did nothing.

In the past eighteen years, he had not participated in nearly one-fifth of her life and her childhood moments.

No matter how capable he was now, he could never make up for this regret.

After Aunt Lin told him about the past, the person he loved gave birth to his child and ran for her life—but he did not know any of that. He could not do anything for her, and he could not even find her!

Even though he had already sought revenge on the people who had attacked him and Rong Rong and tore them into pieces, it was not enough to offset the hatred in his heart that he could not swallow.

"Aunt Lin, don't cry anymore. What happened back then might have been fate. Look, didn't I grow up safely?"

Whether it was accidentally replacing the identity of the eldest daughter of the Yun family or her rebirth to find out about her identity, she thought that this was probably the best plan by God.

"God has eyes. Little Miss has grown up safely, and... and even found her father. If Mistress knows about this, she will be very happy."

"You never returned to Muyang Town. Have you heard anything about my mother?"

Since Rong Rong had disappeared near Muyang Town, this was both the starting point and the endpoint. After so many years, it would not be easy to find her.

"No... I married someone in my hometown and gave birth to a son. It was that man that you saw earlier. His father had a bad temper and kept beating me. When I couldn't live with it anymore, I divorced him, and he had custody of the child. Later, I followed my hometown friend here to be someone's nanny. The boy followed his father and grew up with bad habits and followed in his footsteps, becoming an idle man. I didn't expect him to come here to steal from me..."

Yun Xi looked at her and then at the shabby house. She released a light sigh, "Aunt Lin, are you living alone now?"

"Yes, I'm currently working part-time at a nearby factory. That good-for-nothing b*stard comes to ask me for money from time to time. He sold all the valuables at home, and he owes others a lot of money. I can't leave before he clears his debt..."
