Pingba Village, 2 PM.
When Ye Beiping returned home, he was unaware that Su Xinyi in Hangzhou had been complaining about him.
"Beiping, you're back so soon?" Tao Qiuyan was sitting in the courtyard, chatting and eating sunflower seeds with Wu Di and a few other young people, feeling utterly bored.
She knew that Jiang Hai, Wu Di, and Hou Baolin were chatting with her because of Ye Beiping.
The problem is, she can't be driven away.
These three people arrived early in the morning, ate two meals for lunch and dinner, then went back, and came back immediately the next day.
Actually, the three of them were because of something that happened right after Ye Beiping left, but Tao Qiuyan didn't care about it, since it wasn't like it hadn't happened before.
Ye Beiping saw four people, especially the three dazzling young men, chatting with a man in his forties.
Those who don't know the situation might think it's a deep bond between mother and sons, while those who do would surely assume that Tao Qiuyan has some shady relationship with the three boys.
Hmm... Ye Beiping was the one who knew about their relationship, so he immediately got the wrong idea.
"Mom, what are you doing?" The tone of her voice was somewhat stern.
Tao Qiuyan, Wu Di, and the other two frowned.
"What else can we do but eat sunflower seeds and chat?" Tao Qiuyan rolled her eyes. She didn't know what was wrong with her son; his tone of voice was a bit off as soon as he came back.
Ye Beiping also realized that his tone was a bit off, so he could only purse his lips and pull Wu Di to the side.
Among the four, Wu Di is considered intelligent, and Jiang Hai is considered reasonable.
If nothing had happened, they wouldn't have sat with Tao Qiuyan, a woman in her forties, in the yard eating sunflower seeds.
It wasn't that Ye Beiping was overthinking things; he simply understood their personalities all too well.
After walking to a secluded spot, Ye Beiping spoke seriously: "Tell me what happened. I don't believe you were just bored and keeping my mom company while she ate sunflower seeds."
He's been reborn, but he won't be as foolish as he was in his previous life.
At least when it comes to family matters, he cares a lot, so naturally he feels there's a problem.
Wu Di chuckled, picked up a sunflower seed and cracked it open. He slowly spat out the shell before saying, "Hehe, you figured it out."
"Nonsense." Ye Beiping rolled his eyes and said impatiently, "I don't believe the three of you came to my house out of boredom. I'm afraid you haven't left for the past few days, have you? Hurry up and tell me."
Jiang Hai didn't understand, but Hou Baolin and Wu Di would definitely run out to have fun, they wouldn't stay here quietly eating sunflower seeds.
It was impossible when I didn't have money. Does having money really change your nature?
Seeing Ye Beiping's expression become even more serious, Wu Di lost his mood for joking: "The evening you left, Ye Sheng came out and then grabbed Jiang Enhua and beat her up. Hearing that Ye Dongnan wasn't his biological son, he seemed to go crazy and chased Jiang Enhua and Ye Dongnan and her son with an axe throughout the whole village."
"In the end, Ye Xiaohui came to find your mother, and your mother went because she felt sorry for her. At that time, Ye Sheng even threatened your mother, saying that he would take care of your whole family sooner or later. If it weren't for your problem, no one would have known about these things."
hiss!
Even if Ye Beiping were reborn, he would still be afraid of such a threat.
Not for any other reason, but because if Ye Sheng were to go mad, it might actually happen, and a mentally unstable person, even if they were to kill someone...
Ye Beiping dared not imagine the consequences.
But he keenly noticed that Wu Di hadn't finished speaking, and frowned as he asked, "Tell me everything else."
“Your mom doesn’t seem to care. She said Ye Sheng has said similar things more than once.” Wu Di seemed to recall something terrible, swallowed hard, and then said slowly, “My dad asked us to come and keep your mom company, afraid that Ye Sheng might do something foolish. We’re fine during the day, but the main problem is that we can’t stay at your house at night.”
"So Monkey and I discussed it and decided that we would take turns keeping an eye on Ye Sheng's family. On the first day, I heard screams coming from Ye Sheng's family. I was scared, so I went to inform Monkey and Jiang Hai. The three of us mustered our courage and went to walk around Ye Sheng's family's neighborhood but didn't find anything."
"Until the next day, white banners were suddenly hung up at Ye Sheng's house. Your grandfather... Ye Jianguo is dead."
Hearing this, Ye Beiping's face remained expressionless.
But inside, all sorts of speculations were already forming in my mind.
Logically speaking, Ye Jianguo was able to live in that environment for several months, which shows his remarkable resilience. How could he suddenly... die overnight?
If you said there was no inside story, Ye Beiping wouldn't believe it, and no one would believe it if he told them.
"Didn't you call the police?"
The meaning of this is quite clear: Ye Jianguo is dead. Has no one ever had any doubts?
Wu Di shook his head: "We dare not talk about this. Nobody knows. So we've been staying here a bit longer these past few days, but we don't dare go near Ye Sheng's house at night."
"Considering that the funeral will be held these few days, Ye Sheng probably won't have time to cause trouble for your family."
Ye Beiping nodded slightly.
If that's really the case, Ye Sheng has probably gone mad.
Upon closer inspection, something seems off. Jiang Enhua and Ye Dongnan were mentioned earlier, but Wu Di hasn't mentioned them since.
"Where are Jiang Enhua and Ye Dongnan?"
Wu Di pursed his lips: "They said they were going back to their parents' home, but it was He Yongshou who came to pick them up."
"hehe."
This elicited a few cold laughs from Ye Beiping, not at all surprised, only filled with endless mockery.
He Yongshou came to pick them up, which was expected.
I'm afraid neither Ye Sheng's family nor He Yongshou's family will have an easy time about this. After all, Ye Sheng is driven to the brink of madness by the shock, and He Yongshou's family has He Tao, who has only himself to blame for his own misdeeds.
