Old Granny Ye had two sons and a daughter by her side, her eldest son Ye Xinfan, second son Ye Zifan and youngest daughter Ye Zhixiang.
Everyone in the village thought the two sons and one daughter were Old Granny Ye’s biological children. No one ever suspected her eldest and second son were not her biological child.
Old Granny Ye thought nobody knew about this secret. She brought ‘Ye Xinfan’ from the city to the village, other than the old man at home, and a few elderly knowing he was not her biological child, people of the same generation were completely unaware.
With the older generation who knew passing away one by one, news about Ye Xinfan not being her biological child was buried, nobody ever mentioned it again.
Then, even if the older generation knew a little and suspected Ye Xinfan was not her son, they would not have expected ‘Ye Xinfan’ she brought back was not the uncle’s son at all!
The night when she headed to the city to pick up Ye Xinfan, because she was afraid of being implicated by her uncle, and also because she was young and saw he sister-in-law being better than her in every way, seeing the couple in trouble, she unexpectedly threw Ye Xinfan who was only four-years-old that year in an unknown bus station, after that, she felt afraid and eagerly searched for him. Still, Ye Xinfan’s shadow could no longer be seen.
At that point, she was afraid and panicked as she walked around the dilapidated streets, seeing a young beggar about the same size, fearing there was no way to deal with it, she directly brought the little beggar back to the village.
Those days were too turbulent; there were still many things that were unclear right until this day.
With the passage of time, the truth of that matter was concealed in the long river of time, and nobody brought it up; Old Granny Ye also didn’t want to bring it up; she even forgot she had done such a tragic thing when she was young.
Now that Ye Jian brought it up, how could Old Granny Ye not be frightened? What startled her was she never expected Ye Jian to remember clearly what she had said to herself in the past!
Ye Jian’s gaze was extremely sharp; when she looked over, nothing seemed to hide from her, even when Old Granny Ye pretended to be pitiful earlier, it did not even attract half her pity.
”You are displeased with my parents in all kinds of ways, in the past, I did not understand why you dote on Ye Zhixiang so much. I understand now, it turns out my father is not even your son!”
”Since here’s not your son, you will not feel heartache when you bring harm. My father was injured and needed to rest, but you scolded him then and stabbed him with words the next day. An honest man sat alone in the room until the sky was slightly lit, he carried a few clothes as he left the house while coughing to earn money.”
”The money earned did not reach my mother’s hands, it was all taken by you. Old Granny Ye, you sold my father’s life for money. Tell me, why should I acknowledge you!”
”Why should I acknowledge you!”
The last two sentences ‘why should I acknowledge you’ was filled with hostility, it was filled with rock-shattering determination; it shocked Ye Zhixiang that she screamed again, it also shocked Old Granny Ye as she ignored her own image and took two steps back.
Ye Jian, who had been on the battlefield and killed people, now only had hostility in between her brows. It was also filled with bloodthirsty coldness. Sometimes, she didn’t know how to keep her emotions restrained; even Teacher Tong was shocked when she saw it.
This time, seeing Old Granny Ye’s disgusting face, which was clearly vicious and yet pretending to be amiable, the recalling the things she was unable to forget in both lifetimes, the hostility in her heart, the bloodthirstiness in her eyes, her murderous tone was like a tide as seawater rushed over. Old Granny Ye, who was elderly, was so shocked her back was drenched in layers and layers of cold sweat.
