Some old people are just wicked.

She doesn't have much ability, and regardless of whether the other party is to her liking or not, she simply wants to bully them.

Ye Xia is different from normal people, but when she first appeared in front of Grandma Mu, wasn't she also a young woman in the prime of her youth?

She came from a poor background, but how good was Mu Jingsheng's background?

In the 1960s, a sent-down youth who was forcibly sent to the countryside was considered to have a very serious class background. Not only would they be pointed at and gossiped about on the street, but people would also keep their distance from them, for fear of being tainted by bad luck.

Educated youths like Mu Jingsheng, who were forcibly sent to the countryside, had no chance of returning to the city.

In other words, he not only had to live with people criticizing him every day, but he also had to live with people criticizing him for his entire life, living in a poor and barren mountain.

Even though he came from a privileged family, was tall and handsome, and was well-educated, in a mountain village where gossip could drown a person, what good girl would dare to devote her whole life to him?

If you marry him, you'll be gossiped about and pointed at for the rest of your life, and even your children will be scolded.

Yet, even in that dire and challenging environment, Ye Xia fell in love with Mu Jingsheng despite the pressure.

She was clearly the most beautiful woman in the surrounding villages, and countless promising young men had proposed to her, but she insisted on staying by Mu Jingsheng's side, enduring gossip and malicious scorn alongside him.

Grandma Mu always said that Ye Xia was only after the Mu family's social standing.

But back then, Mu Jingsheng was a complete scoundrel. Ye Xia clearly had a better future, but she chose to follow him at that time. Was it for an impossible family background?

They knew all of this.

Mu Jingsheng knew.

Ye Yun knew.

Everyone in Yejiagou knows this.

Unfortunately, only Grandma Mu was unaware of this.

Perhaps she wasn't unaware; she simply looked down on Ye Xia and insisted on labeling her as having ulterior motives.

If she had used her brain even a little to think about the situation at the time, she would have known how Ye Xia and Mu Jingsheng's relationship developed—it was without any self-interest or calculation.

Unfortunately, she had been in the world of fame and fortune for too long and had never seen the purest emotions in the world.

Tsk, how pathetic.

...

Ye Yun moved into the second floor of the Mu family home. Mu Jingsheng personally prepared a room for her, while Mu Jingsheng had the old lady sent back to her ancestral home that very night.

The Mu family's ancestral home is also in Lin'an, about ten miles away from here.

Although the distance was not far, the Mu family was no longer shrouded in the oppressive aura of the old lady, which made Ye Xia, who had seen the light of day again, extremely happy.

Mu Jingsheng was also happy.

He used to be afraid that Ye Xia would be bullied by the old lady if she stayed at home, so he took Ye Xia with him every day. When he went out for social events, he practically had her tied to his belt. But Ye Xia was clearly unhappy.

Now that Ye Yun has arrived, Ye Xia seems much more cheerful.

Without the old lady's oppression, she spent her days either sunbathing in the yard or staying in the room with Ye Yun, taking care of her grandson.

Ye Yun was also very happy and comfortable.

To help her during her postpartum period, Mu Jingsheng specially hired two nannies, one to take care of the baby and the other to take care of her.

The food and accommodation are great, and I don't have to take care of the kids much. It's so much better than staying in the mountains.

Although Qin Xiang'e could take care of her in the mountains, Qin Xiang'e was ultimately alone, and there was an old lady to take care of as well, so there would always be times when she couldn't look after her.

However, Ye Yun also knew one thing.

Good times won't last long.

Sure enough, a few days later, news of Old Madam Mu came from the old house again.
