Chapter 366 You Let Go Long Ago
Ye Caiping looked at her and said, "Mrs. Lin invited me here today. Was it to praise me?"
Lin Yaxian suppressed her unhappiness and said, "Ye Yiren is also a capable person. Why does she want to marry again and bring trouble upon herself?"
Ye Caiping said: "I don't think this is suffering. I have always been after Shen Zhiyan, and I have a lot in common with him."
The last four words made Lin Yaxian's heart ache.
Mutual affection? Oh, does she deserve it?
How could Zhiyan like her!
I have been with him for ten years, but I still can't get along with him.
Just because of her?
He must have married her because of his parents' orders or for some other reason.
Lin Yaxian's face was covered with a faint frost: "You have climbed up from the bottom, you should know that the mansions of the nobles are different from the peasants."
"Once you enter a noble family, it's like entering a deep sea. This is not just talk."
"In this world, what matters is a match made in heaven, a bamboo door for a bamboo door, a wooden door for a wooden door. You are enjoying it now, but when you really get married, you won't be able to adapt to that kind of life."
"I'm not just talking about rules and habits, but your humble background cannot support you to live openly in a family like this!"
"By then, you will live in inferiority every day, thinking about how to please others every day. Isn't this kind of life tiring?"
After saying this, Lin Yaxian stared at Ye Caiping steadily, her eyes cold, arrogant, yet sincere.
Every word and sentence she spoke came from the heart and was stating a fact.
I thought that under her gaze, the other party would frown or be in deep thought, but unexpectedly, Ye Caiping smiled lightly:
"Inferiority complex? I don't have that feeling. I always feel good about myself!"
"You also said that I climbed up step by step from the bottom, and I know exactly what I will face. I don't have to take this path, but now that I have decided to take it, I have nothing to fear. Naturally, I won't feel inferior to others!"
When Lin Yaxian heard this, she felt annoyed and thought Ye Caiping's attitude was frivolous and disrespectful! And this was not the effect she wanted.
In her opinion, no matter how capable Ye Caiping is, she is just a village woman...
She should feel inferior!
She didn't believe a word Ye Caiping said!
What is fearless? It's just as frank and capable as saying it.
Shangxue, who was standing next to Lin Yaxian, finally couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward with a sullen face: "Ye Yiren, stop pretending."
"You are trying to get close to the Second Master for what? No one can tell. You are just after wealth and glory. We have seen many people like this."
Ye Caiping, however, calmly tucked her hair behind her ears: "Ah, is this important?"
Lin Yaxian and her servant were stunned. What do you mean by important?
How is it not important?
A hypocritical and vain woman who pursues wealth and fame! How shameful!
Ye Caiping chuckled: "Why do you care whether I am attracted to Shen Zhiyan or the wealth of the Shen family? The important thing is that the Shen family is attracted to me, isn't it?"
The last sentence was like a sharp dagger, stabbing Lin Yaxian's heart.
Ye Caiping continued to stab him: "I believe that Madam has made a lot of efforts over the years. But as the daughter of the Prime Minister, the Shen family just ignores you."
"I hadn't shown up at that time! So is my existence important? Why did I marry into the Shen family? Is it important?"
"Women, don't just stare at women." Ye Caiping looked at Lin Yaxian steadily: "The problem should be with Shen Zhiyan and the Shen family. Otherwise, why don't you look for the reason in yourself?"
Lin Yaxian's pupils shrank slightly and she covered her chest tightly.
Ye Caiping said lightly, "The Shen family gave me a betrothal gift of 88,888 taels, plus other gifts, which add up to 100,000 taels. Plus a five-story mansion in the second ring of the capital."
"The Shen family has paid so much for a person like me whom you call lowly, but they are unwilling to accept you again to prove that I am better than you."
Lin Yaxian's icy face finally couldn't hold back any longer, and she angrily shouted, "How dare you!"
Ye Caiping stood up, tilted her chin slightly, and looked down at her condescendingly: "Mrs. Lin, let go! From the moment you abandoned them four years ago, your fate has ended. If you really love Manman, don't pester her anymore."
"In order to avoid you, Manman hid in the corners of the mountains. Even after returning to Beijing, she didn't dare to go out. She was afraid of running into you."
"She has been living in pain."
Ye Caiping recalled the first time she met Manman. He just sat there by the window of the restaurant, lonely and pitiful.
"Let go? How can you let me let go!" Lin Yaxian was so emotional that she slammed the table and stood up: "That's my husband! My daughter! Ye Yiren, you are also a mother, can you let go of your daughter?"
Ye Caiping looked at her steadily: "I can't. But you... can! Didn't you let go a long time ago?"
Lin Yaxian's head exploded with a loud bang.
That winter four years ago...
He knelt before her so proudly.
A little girl of only ten years old, as cute as a pink ball, hid behind a pillar and stared at her intently.
The little person looked at her with eyes as cold as ice, which didn't belong to that age.
But in the end, she turned away resolutely...
I don't know when Ye Caiping left.
Lin Yaxian hugged herself tightly and trembled continuously.
His face turned pale, and he finally fell to the ground with a thud.
"Madam!" Shangxue rushed over and supported her.
"I was... I was..." Lin Yaxian was already in tears.
Why didn't she want to take her away at that time?
Why?
She doesn't understand...
Every time she thought about it, she was amazed.
How could she abandon her daughter and husband and leave...
How could she, Lin Yaxian, do such a thing?
"Madam..." Seeing her crying, Shangxue also cried out of heartache and hugged her tightly: "It's not Madam's fault! It's not Madam's fault! Madam was just too scared at the time and made a mistake for a moment."
"How about... forget it! Madam, I will go back to my hometown in Mingzhou with you! I will never stay in the capital again..."
Lin Yaxian struggled to push her away: "No...it doesn't count. It can't...Zhiyan...if I can't go back to him, what's the point of me living?"
She had liked him since she was very little.
At that time, her father was not the Prime Minister, but just a Shangshu, and his family background was far inferior to that of the Shen family.
She worked so hard for him.
Make yourself a talented woman! Excellent etiquette, a good reputation...
It took a lot of effort for the Shen family to choose her, and it was not easy for Shen Zhiyan to nod.
Unexpectedly, her dream was shattered in just ten years.
Everything was in ruins.
Shangxue felt both distressed and helpless when he saw Lin Yaxian's collapsed appearance.
Why don't you understand why you didn't take the lady with you at that time?
What's not clear?
It’s just that I’m unable to bear the consequences of my original choice and I dare not admit it.
