The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Chu Family

Seeing her daughter go to rest, Yue Jun also directly returned to her room.

These days, she had been rushing to finish the five outfits for Wu Yongcai, then stumbled upon Chu Hongyi’s family recognition, and afterward, a few of them made a trip to Luwei Village. As a result, her nerves had been stretched tight recently, and she only relaxed now, feeling exhausted as soon as she let go.

The mother and daughter slept soundly, and by the time they woke up, it was almost evening.

”Mom, let’s just cook a bowl of noodles to eat, you don’t have to cook dishes.”

Seeing her daughter being so considerate, Yue Jun nodded and smiled.

After eating, the mother and daughter started talking about going to Shangjing.

”Yiyi, do you think... should we really go to Shangjing? Although my mother is indeed a Chu Family member, I’ve never seen those people, how will they view us?”

Yiyi had already considered this point.

”Mom, since we’ve already promised Uncle Chu, let’s make a trip.” She always felt that Chu Hongyi’s attitude was too enthusiastic, coming all the way from Shangjing just because he saw her mother’s embroidery. Wasn’t he afraid of making a mistake? So she planned to make a trip to the Chu family to see what’s really going on.

However, the premise for Yiyi’s decision was that Chu Hongyi didn’t have any malice towards their mother and daughter and even became more intimate upon hearing that their grandmother was Chu Lan. Therefore, she dared to take her mother to Shangjing.

Hearing what her daughter said, Yue Jun didn’t say much more.

When the weekend came, Chu Hongyi arrived early. Seeing that Yue Jun and her daughter were both ready, he said with a big smile, ”Yue Jun, Yiyi, let’s set off now. I’ve already booked the plane tickets, and we’ll arrive in Shangjing this afternoon.”

”Brother Hongyi, it’s really too much trouble for you.”

Hearing this, Chu Hongyi quickly replied, ”It’s me troubling you instead, but don’t worry, the family is very kind, you and Yiyi don’t need to feel nervous.”

”Uncle Chu, don’t worry, we’re not nervous.”

Seeing Yiyi’s calm demeanor, Chu Hongyi couldn’t help but nod. His niece, who reconnected with the family halfway through life, is indeed remarkable. Not only is she good-looking, but she also has a stable temperament and good manners, not inferior to the girls at home.

The three of them rushed and finally arrived in Shangjing in the afternoon, where Chu family members were already at the airport to pick them up. The person who came was Chu Gangyi along with the Chu family’s driver. Upon seeing Chu Hongyi, he quickly waved at them, ”Hongyi, over here.”

Seeing him, Chu Hongyi hurriedly began the introductions, ”Big Brother, this is Aunt Chu Lan’s daughter, Yue Jun, and her daughter, Yiyi.”

Chu Gangyi is Chu Hongyi’s cousin, close in age, and they have been on good terms since childhood. Now, Chu Gangyi’s father, Mr. Chu, is the head of the Chu family.

”Hello.”

Chu Gangyi greeted them warmly, then led them to the car. After they sat down, the car headed directly towards the Chu family home.

”Dad (Uncle), we’re back.”

As soon as he entered, Chu Hongyi smiled and greeted the elder sitting at the head of the table, then quickly introduced, ”Uncle, this is Aunt Chu Lan’s daughter, Ding Yuejun, and that’s her granddaughter, Yiyi.”

Mr. Chu had already received the news but was still very excited when he saw Ding Yuejun, ”You... are you Lan’er’s daughter?”

Seeing the excited face of Mr. Chu, Ding Yuejun hurriedly waved her hands to explain, ”I’m just an adopted daughter of my mother, not her biological daughter. Mother never married and had no children of her own.”

Hearing this, Mr. Chu looked sorrowful.

”Why was Lan’er so stubborn? But it’s all our fault.” In the end, the old man’s eyes were moist with regret.

The middle-aged man next to him quickly said, ”Dad, don’t blame yourself.”

”How can I not blame myself? If it weren’t for your uncle and me forcing her, your aunt wouldn’t have left home so resolutely. We never saw her again, and when we finally received news, we learned she had passed.” Mr. Chu felt he had let his sister down.

Back then, Chu Lan was getting older but was still unwilling to marry. He and his younger brother, Chu Feng, forced her to marry someone, but the girl was adamantly against it. The three siblings had a fierce row, saying many harsh words. Unexpectedly, Chu Lan left quietly, and it was many years before they saw each other again. During that time, they had tried to find her, but with the changing political situation, the Chu family also went through many upheavals, and the search slowed down. By the time they calmed down and resumed looking, it was much harder to find her.

Seeing his father so upset, Chu Gangyi couldn’t help but sigh.

He could still remember his little aunt as a very gentle girl, yet unexpectedly strong-willed, leaving for so many years. Now they’ve been separated by life and death, and it’s no wonder his father blames himself. Even he feels a sense of melancholy.

But now is not the time for sorrow.

”Dad, even though aunt isn’t here anymore, she left behind a daughter and granddaughter. We should treat them well, so perhaps aunt will find some solace in the afterlife.”

”Yes, yes.”

Mr. Chu collected himself and then looked at Ding Yuejun and Yiyi with a smile, ”From now on, make yourselves at home, this is your family.”

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun quickly said, ”Elder, my daughter and I are just here to visit Shangjing; we didn’t plan to stay.”

”Oh... what elder, you should call me Uncle.”

Mr. Chu quickly corrected her, then warmly said, ”Now that we’ve found you, how can we let you live without support away from the family? Stay with us, and we’ll live together as one happy family.”

By this time, Chu Hongyi had already thoroughly investigated Ding Yuejun’s situation. They knew she was living alone with her daughter, so naturally, they wanted her and her daughter to stay in Shangjing for a better life.

Faced with an uncle who suddenly appeared, Yue Jun hesitated to call him by that title.

Seeing everything from the doorway, she could tell the Chu family was wealthy, a deep-rooted and influential family. If they stayed, it felt like they would not fit in.

”Yue Jun, do you acknowledge Lan’er as your mother?”

Hearing Mr. Chu’s direct question, Ding Yuejun quickly replied, ”Of course, although we’re not related by blood, our bond is stronger than that of mother and daughter. In my heart, she is my mother.”

”In that case, I’m your uncle, so what’s stopping you from calling me that?”

Finally, somewhat hesitantly, Yue Jun called him ’Uncle.’

Hearing her call him uncle, Mr. Chu was very excited, ”Ah, ah... good niece.”
