That was to say, not only was he not a child with an unknown father but his uncle was his dad. However, was this possible?

Wasn’t his mom his uncle’s sister? If his mom was together with his uncle, what would that become?

Before Wei Wei could exclaim, someone had covered his mouth and pulled him away. When he was forced to return to his room, Wei Wei realized that the person who had pulled him back was none other than his mom, Wei Xiaomei. “Mom?” Was everything he heard just now true?

Wei Xiaomei touched her son’s head. One had to know that Wei Xiaomei didn’t dare to do this in the past as she knew that her son hated her and didn’t like her touch. However, today was different. Her son knew about the grievances she had suffered all along. She believed that her son could understand her now. “How many years has it been, Xiao Wei? You’re finally willing to be close to Mom again.”

When she said this, Wei Xiaomei cried. She often pondered whether the decision she had made that year was correct or wrong. In the face of her precious son’s look of hatred, how would a mother not feel heartache?

It was just that she didn’t have a choice. In this lifetime, she didn’t have much of a choice. She couldn’t choose her birth or the family she was living in when she was young. Similarly, when she got married to Wei De, she didn’t have a choice as she was raised by the Wei family since she was young and didn’t have any chance to reject anything.

Thinking back of when she was young, she really didn’t understand after knowing Zhai Hua’s existence. She and Wei De had obviously held a banquet, and she had officially married him to be his wife. Why did she become that shameless woman who couldn’t be seen in public and had to be Wei De’s sister in name in the end?

Before Zhai Hua’s appearance, her son was the most favored grandson in the Wei family. After Zhai Hua’s appearance, although her son was still the Wei family’s grandson, he became a ‘fatherless’ child. After coming over to Ping Cheng, he was often bullied by other children.

Upon thinking of her son’s sufferings, Wei Xiaomei felt heartache for her son. As such, even if her son, who didn’t know the truth and thought that she was indecent to give birth to a fatherless him, hated her, Wei Xiaomei was never calculative with him.

Finally, her son no longer rejected her touch. Wei Xiaomei felt happy in her heart. “Xiao Wei, you must remember not to think of anything now. Those matters, your uncle—no, your father and grandma will do them on your behalf. You would still be how you were like before. You’re still young and don’t have to know so much. Most importantly, you have to make yourself forget everything that happened today. You should also understand how serious the consequences would be if outsiders know about what you have found out today. We have worked hard for over ten years. We can’t let everything go to waste now.”

“Mom, is uncle really my dad?” He had a father. He was no longer a fatherless child. “You and my uncle?”

“Mom is a child adopted by the Wei family. I’m not related by blood with your father. You know what a child bride is, right? Mom is something like that. As I’ve grown up in the Wei family, the Zhai family didn’t find anything unusual when they performed checks on me and thought that I was really your father’s sister. Xiao Wei, we’ve hidden this from you for so many years. You should understand our painstaking efforts. We did this for your own good. Can you accept it?” Wei Xiaomei was filled with emotions as she held her son’s hand.

She kept thinking when her son would finally know the truth and understand everything she had done for him. She had never done anything sorry to the Wei family, let alone embarrass the Wei family or smear the Wei family’s reputation.

The Wei family had smeared their reputation themselves. She was the most pitiful. She didn’t do anything wrong but was labeled a bad woman by everyone. Even until now, Wei Xiaomei didn’t understand what wrong she had done to suffer so much since she was young. She didn’t even know who her biological parents were. Now, her son was like her. He had a father but could only become a ‘fatherless’ child.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Mom, why?” His mom wasn’t his uncle’s sister, and his uncle was actually his father. Their family’s relationship was legal. On what basis did he become a fatherless child since young? Upon thinking that Wei Jiajia and Zhai Hua had snatched away his father and the happiness that belonged to their family, Wei Wei was filled with hatred.

“Why?” Wei Xiaomei curled her lips and mocked herself. “I’m just an abandoned baby raised by the Wei family. If not for the poor conditions of the Wei family back then and that I’m a female whom they could get as a daughter-in-law for free in the future, would the Wei family have raised me up? Your mom is an abandoned baby and Zhai Hua is the old chief’s daughter. Given the Wei family’s background, if your dad didn’t become a soldier, he wouldn’t have the blessing to meet the old chief’s daughter. How would your dad not grab hold of this rare opportunity? As such, you became a fatherless child and I became an indecent woman.”

How good was it to have a chief as a father? All men would come knocking on their door. They wouldn’t even want their sons.

“Mom, I hate them. I hate the Zhai family!” Wei Wei clenched his fists. It was the Zhai family who had robbed him of his happiness and a childhood without any worries.

Wei Xiaomei sighed. She was unwilling to leave and always stayed here as she was afraid her son would have this mindset. Wei Xiaomei pulled Wei Wei over and sat down. Both of them had a chat. “Xiao Wei, do you know why I shared so much with you? I was afraid you would have such irrational thoughts. You always thought that mom had done something bad in the past and caused you to be embarrassed. That was why you weren’t willing to be close to me. I don’t blame you for that as the Wei family had caused this to happen. However, I’m afraid every time I see you hanging out with your grandma so often. When you said such words, I knew that my worries were not unfounded. Your grandma has led you astray.”

Her son was in high school and was about to reach adulthood. How would he have such irrational thoughts otherwise?

Wei Wei suppressed the anger in his heart. “Mom, what do you mean by those words? Don’t you hate the Zhai family? If not for the Zhai family, you would be my dad’s wife and I would be a child with a father.” He didn’t believe that his mother didn’t feel any resentment at all that Zhai Hua’s appearance caused her to become a woman who couldn’t be seen in public.

Wei Xiaomei smiled coldly. “How could that be? However, what can I do? If the Zhai family knew that I’m Wei De’s wife and gave birth to you... Do you think your dad is an immortal and the Zhai family’s daughter could only get married to him if she had no one else to marry? Didn’t your grandma tell the Zhai family that I’m your father’s sister to hide this matter?”
