Although the old lady didn't elaborate, Ye Qingqing could tell that Ye Xunmei must have gotten a lot of benefits from Gu Nianci back then.
She couldn't help but shake her head. Even now, Gu Nianci was still protecting Ye Xunmei, that scumbag. Her grandmother was really foolish!
The old lady sneered again, "Man proposes, God disposes. Tang Yufen and Ye Xunmei schemed and plotted, but they didn't foresee the war..."
A few years after Gu Nianci and Ye Xunmei got married, the war spread to Pingjiang City. At that time, all the capitalists in Pingjiang City with any connections tried their best to go to Hong Kong.
The old lady originally planned to sell her property and go to Hong Kong, but at that time, Sang Huaiyuan's father was in poor health and could not bear the long journey. Of course, she could not leave her husband alone to suffer in Pingjiang, so the whole family stayed.
It was around that time that Yip Shun-mei and Tong Yuk-fan went to Hong Kong.
Ye Xunmei left without saying goodbye, leaving only a letter telling Gu Nianci to take care of her son, and then disappeared without a trace.
Unexpectedly, he and Tang Yufen ended up living happily ever after!
Ye Qingqing sneered, "As the saying goes, man proposes, God disposes. Fortunately, war broke out, otherwise all of Grandma's property would have been taken away by that bastard Ye Xunmei sooner or later!"
The old lady nodded in agreement, "That's right!"
Gu Nianci sighed softly, "It would have been better if Ye Xunmei had tricked her into leaving back then; perhaps there wouldn't have been so much trouble later!"
Her decades of hardship, and the unknown fate of her son Ye Mingcheng, weren't all the troubles brought on by her family's wealth?
Ye Qingqing...
The old lady...
They were speechless.
Gu Nianci was right.
Ye Qingqing felt a tightness in her chest. She suddenly realized that although her grandmother was a pushover, she could sometimes deliver a sharp retort that could kill!
"Grandma, from what you're saying, you're saying we should be grateful to Ye Xunmei?" Ye Qingqing asked irritably.
Gu Nianci hurriedly shook her head, "Of course not, I just felt that those assets were not good things. Fortunately, they are gone, and no one will ever covet them again!"
Ye Qingqing twitched the corners of her mouth. It was better not to tell her grandmother about Ye Zhiguo and Shen Yanhong's affair, so as not to make the old lady worry again!
As dusk fell, Ye Qingqing prepared to go home. The old lady escorted her to the courtyard, and Gu Nianci also wanted to see her off.
"Go make me a bowl of braised pork, I suddenly have a craving!"
The old lady sent Gu Nianci away, then held Ye Qingqing's hand, looking at her kindly with a hint of worry.
The jackals at home haven't been dealt with yet, and now tigers and leopards are charging in from outside. Qingya's life is tough!
"Qing girl, what do you plan to do?"
Ye Qingqing was stunned for a moment, not understanding what the old lady meant.
The old lady said, "You are now walking in a crocodile-infested pond. Every crocodile wants to eat you. What should you do?"
"Eat them!"
Ye Qingqing answered without hesitation.
The old lady smiled contentedly. "How would you like to eat it?"
Ye Qingqing thought for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Use a knife to cut, use your teeth to bite, whatever we do, we can't let them succeed!"
The old lady gently patted Ye Qingqing's head, thinking, "She's still just a little girl!"
“Brute force won’t work; you have to take them down one by one. Tang Yufen and the others haven’t discovered your background yet, so you still have time.”
Ye Qingqing's eyes lit up, and she understood somewhat.
"Take care of Ye Zhiguo and Shen Yanhong first, then we can deal with Tang Yufen and the others."
The old lady nodded with satisfaction. Qing'er is smart and understands things quickly. She's much better than her silly grandma!
