The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate

570 Another Granddaughter (Part 3)

Madam Zhao looked at Ye Tiancheng and called out in a choked voice. “Tiancheng.”

Ye Tiancheng’s eyes were cold. “Mother, if you don’t make up your mind, you’ll suffer. If you forgive him today, there will be a knot in your heart that will continue to bother you in the future. After you divorce him, I’ll support you and never let you suffer like this.”

Madam Zhao gritted her teeth. Although she knew what her son said made sense, she still felt terrible.

Fen Lan kowtowed repeatedly. “No, no, no, don’t divorce. I’m a person who’s about to die. I just want to find a home for Yingying. Don’t divorce for us. I’m willing to work like a cow to assure you that I have no ill-intentions.”

Fen Lan was extremely humble. She tried her best to explain that she was here to seek shelter for her daughter and not to break up the family.

Yingying cried. “Please forgive us. I’ll be very obedient. I don’t eat much. I don’t want anything. I’m willing to be a servant girl to my sister and serve everyone. My mother is already very sick. She won’t live for long.”

Third Master Ye looked at Madam Zhao and begged. “Lin Hua, I will never divorce you. No matter how long it takes for you to forgive me, I will wait.”

Madam Zhao’s heart was in a mess. From this moment on, she hated Third Master Ye to the core. He begged her for forgiveness, but in fact, he was forcing her to the corner. He spoke as if he had already made a huge concession, but she still showed no sympathy.

Old Madam Ye frowned. “Get out. Settle the matter yourself. Don’t argue in front of Niuniu.”

Madam Geng and Madam Qiu left with their husbands and children.

Third Master Ye looked at Madam Zhao and made the decision. “During this period of time, I’ll let Yingying and Fen Lan stay in the woodshed.”

Madam Zhao retreated in exhaustion. She felt like her heart was being roasted over a fire. She needed time to calm down before she knew what to do.

Ye Tiancheng could tell that his mother was hesitant, but he did not say anything.

After everyone left, Old Madam Ye held Ye Niuniu’s face and looked at her tear-stained face. Her big almond-shaped eyes were filled with hurt and tears. Old Madam Ye felt as if her heart had been gouged out. Even though her precious granddaughter did not say a word, her heart still ached. “Niuniu, don’t be afraid. I’m here. If you don’t like them, I’ll chase them away.”

Ye Niuniu looked at Old Madam Ye and said timidly, “Grandma, she’s also a girl. You like granddaughters the most. Isn’t it good to have another granddaughter?”

Ye Niuniu had known since she was young why she was doted on. It was because she was a girl.

But henceforth, this advantage was gone. That girl was even more capable and obedient than her. She should be very likable.

However, at the thought that her grandmother was about to be snatched away, Ye Niuniu couldn’t help but grab Old Madam Ye’s clothes tightly. Thinking that she was no longer the only special person in her grandmother’s heart, tears streamed down her face again.

Ye Niuniu was unsophisticated and all her emotions could be seen on her face. Seeing her like this, Old Madam Ye’s heart ached even more. “Silly Niuniu, you’re my only treasure. How can an urchin compare to you?”

Ye Niuniu choked. “Grandma…”

Old Madam Ye sighed. Her family, which was harmonious a short while ago, was destroyed just like that.

Old Madam Ye stroked Ye Niuniu’s back again and again. Ye Niuniu quickly fell asleep while sobbing.

Old Madam Ye began to think carefully about how to resolve this matter.

In the beginning, when Liu Sanniang said that her face showed that her family was in chaos, she did not believe it completely. But now it turned out that Liu Sanniang was right.

Old Madam Ye was upset. Previously, she didn’t want her future in-laws to know so much about her family scandal, so she asked the Liu family to go back. Now that she had calmed down, Old Madam Ye felt that she might need to find Liu Sanniang and see what she had to say about this matter.

No one in the Ye family could sleep well that night.

Madam Geng and First Master Ye lay under the blanket. Madam Geng couldn’t wait to ask him. “What’s going on with Third Brother? Did Yingying and Third Brother test their blood? Why did he have to bring them back? Tell me, do you also have any illegitimate children behind my back?”

Madam Geng bombarded her husband with questions. First Master Ye couldn’t handle it.

He said repeatedly, “No, no. I’m already so old. I’ve only been to the brothel once or twice when I was young. Most of the women there are not clean. I was afraid that I would get sick, so I didn’t go. What happened to Third Brother was really an accident. We didn’t know either.”

When Madam Geng heard First Master Ye’s explanation, she was no longer so angry. She even felt that compared to Third Master Ye, First Master Ye was already very good. At least he did not get other women pregnant.

If it were Madam Geng today, she would probably be the same as Madam Zhao. She would hate her husband to death and not know what to do.

Madam Qiu and Second Master Ye were the same. After confirming that Second Master Ye didn’t get other women pregnant, she started to worry about Madam Zhao.

They all knew that as long as this matter was not resolved, the Ye family would not be at peace.

…

When Liu Sanniang returned home, Liu Dalang and Liu Erlang were still awake.

Liu Erlang asked anxiously. “Father, Mother, what happened to the Ye family?”

Madam Liu said with a serious expression, “Dalang, Erlang, come in. I have something to tell you.”

Liu Dalang and Liu Erlang rarely saw their parents so serious, so they followed them in.

Tang An looked at Liu Sanniang worriedly. Liu Sanniang pulled Tang An back into her room and told her what had happened.

Tang An frowned. “Then, Niuniu must be very sad.”

Liu Sanniang nodded.

Tang An stood up and returned to her room.

Not long after, the sound of the door opening came from Mr. Liu’s room. Liu Dalang and Liu Erlang came out and returned to their rooms.

Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu eavesdropped on the conversation. Knowing that Liu Sanniang was concerned about Ye Niuniu, Liu Yuanyuan said, “Venerable Liu, I’ll go to the Ye family to take a look. I’ll tell you when there’s some news.”

Liu Sanniang nodded and Liu Yuanyuan left.

Hu Yu did not go out. She said to Liu Sanniang, “Venerable, don’t worry. Auntie Wei has already reminded the First and Second Brother seriously just now. They swore to the heavens that they would not do such a thing.”
