Chapter 795: Chapter 795: Substitute Bride Sister 10

Standing next to Yuan Chun, they don’t look like sisters, but more like mother and daughter.

So, where exactly does Li Hongchun get the confidence to think she can seduce Meng Fei and make him love her enough to abandon Yuan Chun for her?

Is this what they call the deranged mindset of a malicious female character?

Li Hongchun’s eyes were moist as she pitifully called out, "Eldest sister-in-law, I... I’ve divorced."

Eldest Madam Li incredulously said, "When you married Wu Hongwei, didn’t you swear to be lifelong companions? How did you end up divorced?"

Li Hongchun felt a bit awkward, "I... I couldn’t have children, so we divorced. I couldn’t let Wu Hongwei be left without descendants."

In front of her mother and sister, she could cry about being bullied by Wu Hongwei and the Wu family, but in front of her sister-in-law, she wanted to save face and couldn’t say it.

Eldest Madam Li responded indifferently, "Well, a woman who can’t have children is bound to be abandoned sooner or later. Alas, it’s fate. Your fate is bad, nothing can be done about it."

Eldest Madam Li speaks bluntly, stabbing directly at Li Hongchun’s heart without realizing it.

Mrs. Li and Yuan Chun were used to her straightforward personality, so they didn’t speak up for Li Hongchun.

After a few of them entered the house, Eldest Madam Li made each of them a cup of sugar water, then sat next to Li Hongchun and began to reproach her, "Hongchun, you are really heartless. When you and Wu Hongwei returned to the city, you stayed there for eight years without coming back to see your parents. Do you even know how much your parents think about you?"

"If we were not worried about them going so far to see you, your parents would have come looking for you long ago. It’s your lack of filial piety. Even if you don’t have time to come home and see your parents, at least write a few more letters home."

"Ever since you left, your parents have been waiting day and night, hoping to get a letter from you. But you are so lazy, in eight years, you only wrote five letters back. Hongchun, you went back to the city to live a good life and forgot about the parents who raised you."

Li Hongchun’s face became as colorful as a palette being scolded, changing through several shades.

Furious, she shouted angrily, "Eldest sister-in-law, if you don’t respect me, I’ll leave right now. Why do you have to shame me with your words?"

Eldest Madam Li was baffled, "I’m just telling the truth. How am I shaming you? What, you’re unfilial and yet don’t want people to talk about it?"

"You..."

"Hongchun, your sister-in-law is just like that, she speaks without thinking. Don’t take it to heart."

Mrs. Li quickly stopped her eldest daughter, who was about to lose her temper, and then said to Eldest Madam Li, "Lady of the house, we brought Hongchun here because we want her to stay with you. You know that if the news of her divorce gets out in the village, Hongchun won’t be able to stay there."

Eldest Madam Li is straightforward but kind-hearted.

She also felt sorry for her sister-in-law being abandoned and said, "Luckily, I still have an empty room at home. Hongchun can stay."

Then she sighed with relief and said, "Fortunately, there have been many divorces in recent years, mostly people being abandoned by intellectual youths. If this had happened ten years earlier, having a divorced woman in the Li Family would make it difficult for the younger children to find good marriage prospects."

Mrs. Li’s face darkened a bit, "Lady of the house, don’t mention Hongchun’s divorce again in the future. Pay attention to what you say, don’t always stab people in the chest with your words."

Eldest Madam Li replied sheepishly, "Mom, I’ll change."

"Hmph, you’ve said you would change many times, but I haven’t seen you change."
