592 Evil Is Evil
Tears streamed down Yingying’s face. “Mother, don’t leave me…”
Fen Lan used her life to prove it. This caught everyone off guard.
In the main hall, there was only the sound of Yingying sobbing.
Madam Zhao’s eyes were red as she clenched her fists tightly.
Old Madam Ye’s eyes widened. She had yet to recover from the scene of Fen Lan dying resolutely. She felt very uncomfortable. Fen Lan had used her death to prove her innocence and that Yingying was Third Master Ye’s child, but her death was also a threat.
Yingying looked up with a sinister expression. “Are you satisfied? You forced my mother to death. Did you achieve what you wanted now?”
Old Madam Ye indeed felt guilty. She hugged Ye Niuniu and did not look at Yingying. No one expected Fen Lan to die. She did not want Fen Lan to die either.
Third Master Ye looked guilty. “Yingying, I’m sorry. We didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t be sad. I… I believe you.”
Looking at Yingying, who was alone and helpless, and then at Ye Niuniu, who was protected by Old Madam Ye, Third Master Ye felt very complicated. They were both his daughters, but one was in the gutter, and the other was in a high place. This was all his fault.
Third Master Ye knelt down. “Mother, this all started because of me. Yingying and Fen Lan have suffered too much. I believe in Fen Lan. It’s said that when one is about to die, one’s words are honest. If not for the fact that she was pushed to the corner, why would she use her life to prove her innocence? Forget it, Mother. Whether you accept it or not, I still have to support Yingying. Niuniu is about to get married. Just treat Yingying as a servant girl and keep her by your side.”
Madam Zhao choked. “Ye Laosan, I want to divorce you!”
Third Master Ye frowned. “Lin Hua, can’t you be more magnanimous? Fen Lan is already dead. What else do you want? I know it’s my fault and I admit my mistake. Why can’t you be benevolent?”
If Madam Zhao was more magnanimous, this wouldn’t have happened at all.
If Madam Zhao could accept Fen Lan, his family would not be in chaos. It was all because Madam Zhao was not kind enough that this situation ended up like this. A life was lost for nothing.
Madam Zhao’s heart turned cold at Third Master Ye’s accusation. She smiled coldly and said, “I can’t be magnanimous. Ask yourself. If I cheated on you today and had a bastard child, would you be kind enough to accept the child that doesn’t belong to you?”
Third Master Ye’s expression darkened. “This is not the same thing at all. How can women and men be the same?”
Madam Zhao sneered. “I have hands and feet. I can live very well without you.”
Third Master Ye gritted his teeth. “Do you really insist on divorcing?”
Madam Zhao looked at Old Madam Ye. “Mother, you’ve always said that you’re fair and just. Say something. There’s no other way today. I’m narrow-minded and not magnanimous. I won’t tolerate any child who isn’t mine.”
Old Madam Ye also looked anxious. “Why do we have to be like this?”
If Third Master Ye divorced Madam Zhao, the Ye family would no longer be the same.
Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu could not help but feel nervous. They had been watching from the side and did not know what to say.
Who would have thought that Fen Lan would seek death?
Just as everyone was in a dilemma, Liu Sanniang had already walked to Fen Lan and her daughter’s side and squatted down. She said calmly, “Death can’t get rid of the stench coming from her bones. Evil is evil.”
Liu Sanniang’s cold voice shocked the Ye family. Only then did they notice that Liu Sanniang did not feel guilty about Fen Lan’s death. Her eyes were clear, like a ray of light cutting through the darkness.
Yingying looked at Liu Sanniang with hatred in her eyes. “You forced my mother to death. What else do you want?”
She wished she could skin Liu Sanniang and eat her. It was all Liu Sanniang’s fault that her mother had to kill herself to help her.
Only she understood how much pain she and her mother had suffered and how much hope they held for the future. Unless they were in a desperate situation, why would her mother give up her life?
Yingying hated Liu Sanniang, but she also hoped that Liu Sanniang would let her go.
She hoped that her question would make Liu Sanniang feel guilty. After all, it was a life lost. However, she was disappointed. Liu Sanniang’s eyes were calm.
“It doesn’t belong to you, and I won’t let you have it.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Yingying. Under her resentful gaze, she reached out and grabbed her hand.
Yingying’s expression turned sinister. She gritted her teeth and wanted to pull her hand out of Liu Sanniang’s hand, but for some reason, she could not.
She felt a force invade her body and envelop her. She wanted to escape. She knew that if she couldn’t escape, something terrible would happen.
However, she had already used all her strength, but she still could not pull her hand back. For a moment, her eyes were extremely sinister. “Let go, let go of me. You can’t take it away. You’re a demon! Ah… let go.”
Liu Sanniang released her power and let the Ye family see what she was seeing.
Yingying was born in April. For as long as she could remember, she understood that her father was very scary and wanted to avoid him. His eyes were ferocious, and he was always cursing.
Although she did not understand what the curses meant, she could tell from his angry tone and expression that it was not a good thing.
In Yingying’s memory, Fen Lan was always bruised and swollen. When her father came, Fen Lan protected her in her arms. The mother and daughter trembled and did not dare to speak. They wished they could run away. Even if they were beaten, they did not dare to cry.
What Yingying heard the most was her mother telling her that when she grew up and got married, everything would be fine.
Fen Lan told Yingying, “You’re different from me. I was sold off. My life is hard and I won’t be able to escape the misery, but you’re free. When you grow up, you’ll definitely find a good husband who will love you.”
