CHAPTER 783: CHAPTER 783 KANG LI FEELS AWKWARD

"There there, it’s okay. When Wen Yu wakes up, you chat with her nicely, and she’ll gradually recover,"

Kang Li stroked the little girl’s head and sighed inwardly. She wondered how Wen Siyuan would handle the family conflict this time.

Ironically, Xu Mei was thinking exactly the same thing as Kang Li. As soon as she saw Wen Siyuan return to the ward, she asked directly, "You’re going to have to talk to Xiao Su. Whatever happens, she can’t lay hands on the children."

Wen Siyuan nodded. "I know."

Wen Yue: "Dad, can you divorce that bad woman?" Wen Yue’s eyes were nearly slits due to her swollen face, but the plea in her eyes was easy to see.

"If Dad divorces your Auntie Su, who will take care of you and your brother at home? You know, Dad is very busy with work, and both last year and this, he has had to come home to resolve conflicts for you.

Dad realizes that Auntie Su’s temper sometimes isn’t very good, but Dad has told you all to behave at home..."

Wen Siyuan hadn’t finished speaking when he heard Wen Yue interject, "But we haven’t been misbehaving. I just wanted to get Little Fish’s Crescent Moon Jade Pendant back from her. She refused to give it to me and even claimed it was hers. When I heard that, I got angry, and that’s when we started arguing.

Then, when I smashed the broken jade pendant, it had nothing to do with her. What right did she have to hit me, to push Little Yi?"

"...Your Auntie Su was indeed wrong this time, and Dad will speak to her about it,"

After a long silence, Wen Siyuan responded.

"Why can Uncle Luo find such a good mother like Aunt Kang for Ruirui and the others, but you can’t find us a good stepmother?"

Tears welled up in Wen Yue’s eyes as the young girl felt extremely aggrieved.

Kang Li felt quite embarrassed at this moment. She helped Wen Yue wipe her tears but did not look at Wen Siyuan or say anything.

"Yueyue, actually, the Auntie Su your dad found for you is quite a good person. Today’s incident must have been a moment of confusion for her, so she didn’t return the jade pendant to Wen Yu.

Also, when she laid hands on you and Wen Yi, it must have been an impulsive act driven by her emotions. You can’t ask your dad to divorce your Auntie Su just because of today’s incident. If that happens, who will wash your clothes, cook for you, and take care of your brother?"

Wen Yue: "Aunt Zheng can take care of us."

Xu Mei: "Without an adult at home, can you guarantee that this Aunt Zheng you mention will treat you well? Think about what life was like at home for Ruirui and his siblings before Aunt Kang came to our courtyard."

Kang Li really wanted to protest, wondering why she was being dragged into this.

"But I don’t like her!"

Wen Yue said with a sobbing voice, "She deceives children of their things and she hit me, twisted my arm... What if she beats me up again in the future?"

At these words, Xu Mei’s face showed difficulty. How was she supposed to respond?

After all, she was just an outsider and couldn’t make promises on behalf of Xiao Su.

Just then, Wen Siyuan’s voice, low and tinged with fatigue, sounded, "Don’t worry. If your Auntie Su dares to lay hands on you girls again, Dad will go straight to file for divorce!"

Wen Yue, wide-eyed with tears, asked, "You’re not lying to me?"

"Mm."

Wen Siyuan nodded.

Wen Yue: "Will Aunt Zheng still stay at our place?"

After pondering for a moment, Wen Siyuan replied, "What do you think?"

"I... I’ll listen to Dad..."

She knew that Aunt Zheng was paid a salary for working in their house, but her dad was working hard on his own. If she insisted on keeping Aunt Zheng, then her dad would have to allocate part of his monthly salary as payment. Would this... Would this put too much burden on Dad?
