Chapter 1235: Chapter 1051: Return to Hometown_2

Madam Li, seeing that he was silent, let out all the resentment that was pent up in her heart, pacing angrily around the room: "Over these years, we have been more than fair to the second branch of the Yan Family, extending help whenever possible."

"But look at them, off to Xiliang creating trouble for my daughter, there could be no one with a more wolfish heart and a dog’s lungs than them!"

The mere thought of her two-year-old granddaughter almost being harmed by Yan Yile made Madam Li wish she could fly to Xiliang and personally slap her twice.

"Yan Yile’s divorce from Feng Shuo has brought disgrace upon the Yan Family. Out of consideration for her feelings, no one has spoken ill of her in the family. And there I was, swallowing my pride to make amends with Zhou Xuan of the Feng Family, and this is how she repays me?"

"Coveting her own brother-in-law, how can she be so shameless?!"

Yan Zhigao was also furious inside but tried to calm the irate Madam Li: "Don’t be angry, take care of your health."

As he spoke, he let out a sigh.

"Tomorrow I’ll call your second brother to the mansion, and when his wife brings Yan Yile back, let them go back to their ancestral home."

Hearing this, Madam Li’s anger subsided somewhat. Even though the second branch did not live with them, being in the same Beijing and because the old Madam was still alive, they often visited the mansion.

It would have been fine if the people from the second branch were sensible, but over the years, your second sister-in-law’s actions became increasingly indiscreet. Every time they met, if she wasn’t envying something of the main branch, she was complaining about her dissatisfaction.

It was bad enough that she irritated her, but to upset the Old Madam too...

"You think they’ll just leave if you tell them to?"

Yan Zhigao: "Having a divorced girl in the family does affect Wenjie somewhat. What the second brother values the most is still Wenjie."

Madam Li did not speak further; speaking too much may make it seem as though she was the one driving the second branch away.

Meanwhile, at the Yan Family’s second branch, Zhu Qiyun also received a letter from her home through Yan Yihuan.

Seeing the letter, Zhu Qiyun was somewhat pleased, thinking Yan Yile had found a suitable match and that Yihuan was writing to bring good news to the family. However, after reading the letter, her whole body shook with anger.

Yan Zhiyuan, as he returned with his grandson from outside, saw his daughter-in-law grinding her teeth in fury and promptly handed the child over to the wet nurse, approaching her to ask, "Wenjie’s wife, what’s happened?"

Upon hearing his voice, Zhu Qiyun snapped out of her anger and handed him the letter, with effort keeping her rage in check: "A letter from Yihuan."

Yan Zhiyuan quickly took the letter and read it, and after doing so, he too leaned on a pillar for support, somewhat overwhelmed.

Over the years, the second branch did not fare as well as the main or the third branch, and he held a lot of resentment in his heart. Even when he knew that the Sun Family had made the main branch unhappy, he did not correct it.

After all, with his mother still alive, even if they were to split the household, the main and third branches couldn’t just abandon them.

But he was not foolish; he knew there had to be limits in behavior and dealings. Minor irritations aside, he would intervene if they crossed the line.

Thus, over the years, the main branch might have been dissatisfied with them, but they still managed regular interactions.

What he did not expect was that a trip to Xiliang would lead the Sun Family and his youngest daughter to do such things, practically pushing the main branch and the second branch to a fallout.

Yiyi, that girl, has never been easy to deal with. If provoked, she could hold her own even as a child, let alone now that she is a Princess Consort.

"I shouldn’t have let the mother and daughter go to Xiliang alone."

Because he couldn’t bear to part with his grandson, he chose not to accompany them to Xiliang. Without him, the two of them made such a mess, even affecting his son-in-law’s career.

Watching her father-in-law overcome with regret, Zhu Qiyun didn’t know what to say: "Father, with such an incident, we should go and apologize to the eldest uncle and his family."

Yan Zhiyuan didn’t respond, sitting in dejection under the eaves until Yan Wenjie returned home from his official duties, without moving an inch.

"Father!"

Upon his son’s return, Yan Zhiyuan waved him over to sit beside him: "Have you read Yihuan’s letter?"

Yan Wenjie nodded weakly, at a loss for words over having such a sister.

Yan Zhiyuan sighed: "Yile’s divorce from the Feng Family could have ruined your career. It took great effort to earn your elder brother’s support; you must not let Yile bring you down again."

Recalling how his brother-in-law You Kai was transferred away from Xiliang, Yan Wenjie hung his head in silence.

Yan Zhiyuan patted Yan Wenjie’s shoulder: "This situation with Yile is ours and your mother’s failure to educate her well. Your own well-being, as well as Yihuan’s, should not suffer because of how Yile lives."

"Your wife is a good woman; she has raised the children well and has repeatedly tolerated your mother’s many criticisms. With her supporting you, I’m at ease."

Yan Wenjie felt something was off: "Father....."

Yan Zhiyuan interrupted him: "After your mother returns with Yile, I’ll take them back to our ancestral home. That way, the main branch of the family will cool down a bit."

As he spoke, he patted Yan Wenjie’s shoulder again.

"I cannot help you much in the future; you’ll have to rely on yourself. Your eldest uncle is still sentimental; without our burden, he will still help you somewhat."

Inside the house, Han Xinran, listening to her father-in-law’s words, felt somewhat relieved.

Thankfully, the father-in-law had some sense. Her husband was not young anymore and could not withstand more turbulence.

Regarding Yan Yile, to speak frankly, she really did not want anything to do with her anymore. She always seemed to have a strange power where not only did she not live well, but she could also cause those around her to suffer.

Their father-in-law taking her back to the ancestral home was indeed the best outcome.

...

In mid-March, the Sun Family brought back a dispirited Yan Yile to Beijing.

Yan Zhiyuan did not allow the two to visit the main branch but instead went on his own to see Madam Yan, Yan Zhigao, and Madam Li, telling them that he would take the mother and daughter back to the ancestral home within the month.

Madam Yan did not insist on their staying; although reluctant to see her second son leave, she did not say anything.

With the Sun Family and Yan Yile being such troublemakers, it was better they went back to the ancestral home, so as not to affect Wenjie.
