“I did something wrong, so I suffered retribution… It’s all my fault. So many years have passed, and I’ve still felt terrible about it. I wanted to come back and apologize to the young lady…”
Tang Yufen spoke haltingly, tears streaming down her face, her expression full of regret.
Not only were Ye Qingqing and the others surprised, but even Ye Yuanxiu couldn't understand what his grandmother was doing.
It's clearly Sheng Xinlan and the others who are in the wrong, so why does Grandma have to kowtow to their enemy?
Before coming, Tang Yufen had warned him not to say a word, and Ye Yuanxiu dared not disobey. He had no choice but to kneel down and try to help Tang Yufen up, feeling extremely aggrieved.
"That old hag is definitely acting, deliberately playing the victim, absolutely."
Ye Qingqing whispered in Lu Mo's ear that she didn't believe it anyway.
Lu Mo frowned slightly. He didn't believe it either, but he no longer dared to underestimate Tang Yufen. This woman was ruthless, willing to go all out, and shameless. She was an extremely difficult opponent.
He even felt that Tang Yufen was more difficult to deal with than the old lady, no wonder Tang Yufen was able to successfully deceive the old lady back then.
The old lady was indeed very shrewd and had a broad mind and insight, but she was not as shameless as Tang Yufen. Tang Yufen came from a poor background, and in order to survive, she was willing to abandon all shame and use any means necessary.
Just like the Chu-Han Contention back then, Xiang Yu lost because he wasn't as shameless as Liu Bang.
**** is actually more suitable for survival, Lu Mo thought to himself, raising Tang Yufen's opponent level by several levels.
"Get up. This is a new society now. The old ways don't apply anymore. Although your indenture is still with me, there's no need to address you like that anymore," the old lady said calmly and composedly.
Ye Qingqing's lips twitched, and she almost burst out laughing.
Her great-grandmother is truly amazing; she can curse without using any vulgar language.
Tang Yufen gritted her teeth in hatred. Back then, she coaxed Gu Nianci to go to Sheng Xinlan to get her indenture. Sheng Xinlan obeyed Gu Nianci in everything else, but she refused to let go of her indenture no matter what.
I never expected that old hag would still be holding onto that contract!
Tang Yufen was so angry that she almost lost her composure. The indenture was the greatest humiliation etched in her heart, constantly reminding her and motivating her to work hard to earn money, carve out a path for herself in Hong Kong, and gain a foothold.
"No matter what, Miss will always be Miss in my heart. Yu Fen would never dare to be disrespectful in the slightest."
Having lived a life of luxury for decades, Tang Yufen couldn't take it anymore. She got up with Ye Yuanxiu, but after searching for a long time, she couldn't find a stool. The old lady hadn't even told Xiao Li to offer her a seat.
Ye Yuanxiu said angrily, "Is this how your Sang family treats its guests? You don't even have tea or chairs?"
Ye Qingqing sneered, "You said it yourself that this is how you treat guests. You came uninvited, so you're not our guests."
"Qingqing, don't be rude."
The old lady scolded them in a low voice, but still did not let Xiao Li serve tea and take a seat, leaving Tang Yufen and the others standing.
"How dare I sit down in front of Miss? I'll just stand." Tang Yufen suppressed her anger, speaking in a humble and pitiful tone.
I'm increasingly unable to understand this woman's thoughts, but I know that Tang Yufen definitely has ill intentions.
Even the most docile snake is still a snake, and it might bite you at any time!
"It's good that you've come to apologize; it shows you still have a conscience. But where is your lover, Ye Xunmei? Why isn't he here?" the old lady asked deliberately.
