I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

Chapter 594: The Truth Of What Happened In The Past

Translator: Lord bluefire

Chu Ciyuan heard this and became angry. “Why should I apologize to her? She always wants to control me. It was my fault for not choosing a good girlfriend before, but what about this time? I just wonder how my elder brother could have a falling out with me. It turns out that it’s about controlling me…”

His eyes were red as he looked at Matriarch Chu. “Since you hate me so much and are afraid I’ll compete with your sons for the inheritance, why did you hypocritically find someone to save me? Did you think I’ll be grateful to you like this?”

Chu Ciyuan had always felt aggrieved

He was brought to Matriarch Chu’s side when he was young and grew up with Chu Cimo.

When he was a child, he didn’t feel that Matriarch Chu favored one over the other. Chu Cimo had something and so did he. Occasionally, he could enter Matriarch Chu’s arms and act coquettishly, waiting for her to hold him. But as he grew older, the servants whispered that he was an illegitimate child and not Matriarch Chu’s child…

Also, the second aunt of the second house would always mock him. Although Matriarch Chu stopped them and fired the gossiping servants, it already left a shadow in his heart.

After all, he wasn’t her biological child…

So, when he and Chu Cimo were both sick, Matriarch Chu would prioritize Chu

Cimo…

From that time on, he gradually distanced himself from her.

As he grew older, he slowly understood that he was not Matriarch Chu’s biological child, and his true mother was just his father’s mistress. It was good enough that Matriarch Chu didn’t hate him, and it was impossible for her to treat him well.

Later on, someone told him the term “to praise someone to the extent they become complacent.”

After hearing that, his heart became even more uncomfortable.

After all, how could a woman love the son of a love rival?

Because of that, the more he wanted love, the more he doubted the purity of that love.

When Matriarch Chu sent him and Chu Cimo the same food, he would think that Matriarch Chu was just saving face. He didn’t know what else she gave to Chu Cimo behind the scenes… He really wanted to know what true maternal love looked like.

Matriarch Chu looked at him and couldn’t help frowning. “I have never been hypocritical toward you.”

Chu Ciyuan sneered. “Not hypocritical? You’ve never been a saint, and we both know that. Why are you so good to me then? Is it not to show off to others? To prevent me from inheriting the family property?”

He simply spoke out about his grievances over the years, “Do you think I’m stupid? I heard when I was a child that you told the housekeeper to give only five percent of the Chu family’s property to me… Among the three sons in the family, even if my elder brother is to inherit the family and needs most of the property, do l, as an illegitimate child, only deserve five percent?”

Matriarch Chu didn’t expect to hear this and was stunned.

She suddenly understood something…

(So that’s how it was…)

She smiled bitterly. “No, I didn’t reduce your share of the property…”

Chu Ciyuan shouted, “Not reduced? Did you actually increase it? Since my father acknowledged me and even sent me to you to raise, it’s impossible for him not to leave me any property!”

Actually, the brothers didn’t have much recollection of their father, as they were both raised by Matriarch Chu.

Chu Ciyuan didn’t want to believe that he not only lacked maternal love but also paternal love.

Chu Ciyuan then thought about it and stared at Matriarch Chu. “Tell me, what’s going on?”

Matriarch Chu looked at him, suddenly at a loss for words.

Her hesitation was interpreted as guilt by Chu Ciyuan, who then scoffed, “Feeling guilty? But Mother, do you know? I never cared about how much of the family fortune I could inherit. The only person I cared about was you! All these years, I’ve been working hard to make money and strive just to prove to you that I have no intentions to fight for our family’s fortune.”

As he spoke, he lowered his head, tears streaming down his face.

Matriarch Chu couldn’t help but step forward and hug him.

The child in her arms had grown up, now taller than her by a head. Matriarch Chu then stroked Chu Ciyuan’s hair and suddenly looked at Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan sighed quietly. “Big Brother didn’t leave any fortune for you.”

Hearing these words, Chu Ciyuan was dumbfounded.

His whole body stiffened as he slowly turned to Chu Yuan.

He clenched his fists and laughed. “Are you here to deceive me too? If my father didn’t love me, why would he bring me home? And if he loved me, how could he not leave any fortune for me? Are you trying to speak up for her? You…”

Before he could finish, Chu Yuan suddenly stepped forward, sighed deeply, and said, “Because you’re not Big Brother’s son. Your father… is actually me!” At these words, everyone present was stunned.

Chu Yuan’s eyes reddened. “Years ago, I was set up in a business deal and had an affair with your mother. She became pregnant with you, but I was afraid my wife would be angry and leave me. I was even more afraid of causing family conflicts, so I refused to acknowledge you. After that, that woman took you and found my sister-in-law…”

At that time, Matriarch Chu was in charge of the family, so the decision was hers.

Chu Yuan was actually very angry at himself and didn’t want to acknowledge the child since the affair was a setup. He had no feelings for the child.

But the woman already ran away, leaving the child in the Chu family.

Chu Yuan’s plan was to send him to an orphanage. Keeping him would be disrespectful to his wife…

However, Matriarch Chu couldn’t bear to see a child of the Chu family end up on the streets. So, she insisted that Chu Ciyuan was her husband’s illegitimate son and raised him.

It was Matriarch Chu who gave him a chance at life!

Chu Ciyuan was dumbfounded.

He looked at Matriarch Chu in disbelief, and she nodded in confirmation.

Chu Yuan said, “I’m not a qualified father. But between my family and you, I can only be responsible for my family. Over the years, I never expected anything from you. But my sister-in-law truly raised you like her son.

Whatever Cimo had, she gave you as well. What more could you want?”

Chu Ciyuan’s eyes reddened in an instant.

Chu Yuan continued, “If you have hatred in your heart, direct it at me. I never fulfilled my obligation to support you, so you have every right to hate me. But you have no right to hate my sister-in-law!’

Chu Ciyuan stopped listening to Chu Yuan’s following words.

He just stared blankly at Matriarch Chu, feeling surprised. “You really, truly care about me?’

Matriarch Chu nodded.

Chu Ciyuan stood there, stiff and motionless, feeling shocked and surprised. At that moment, thinking about everything that he had done, he was filled with immense guilt.

His voice trembled, filled with a hint of grievance. ‘Then why, why did no one inform me when all of you came to the capital….”
