Chapter 16 The Hidden Story of Falling into the Water
Ye Ran wanted nothing more than to rush up and confront them; she was already overflowing with questions.
Although it was just a dream, every brick, every tile, every word and action felt so real, as if such a conversation had really happened!
Just as Xu Qingyan and his son were deep in thought, Wei Jinlian suddenly rushed in in a panic.
Xu Qiang frowned in disgust and scolded, "You're always causing trouble!"
"It's utterly shameful! You can't even do a simple task right, you useless thing!" His eyes were filled with undisguised disdain.
Even Xu Qingyan frowned and looked at her with displeasure.
Hearing Xu Qiang's scolding, Wei Jinlian couldn't help but shiver, and her head unconsciously drooped down...
It's hard to imagine that Wei Jinlian, who is so fearless and outspoken in public, is so subservient in front of these two people. It truly proves the saying that evil people will always be punished by evil people.
Watching this scene, Ye Ran felt a surge of satisfaction. Wei Jinlian was still hoping that her precious son would bring her a life of luxury? What a pipe dream!
What kind of person could Xu Qingyan be, raised by such a bunch of wicked people? This family will be tormenting each other for the rest of their lives!
Seeing Wei Jinlian's timid and cowering appearance, Xu Qiang became even angrier, picked up his pipe, and hit her on the head.
"Just looking at your pathetic appearance makes me angry! How unlucky I was to marry such an idiot like you! You've completely disgraced me!"
Wei Jinlian screamed and began to wail, blood flowing from the spot on her forehead where she had been hit.
Because she was hit by a tobacco pipe, the hot part of the pipe mouthpiece, heated by the tobacco, scalded a patch of her flesh, leaving it blackish-red with bloodstains, which looked quite horrifying.
Xu Qingyan remained unmoved throughout, even taking a step back when his mother was being beaten, showing no intention of speaking up for her.
Seeing all that was happening before her eyes, even though Ye Ran hated her, she couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken. No matter how harsh Wei Jinlian was to outsiders, she was also harsh to her own daughter.
She had always been completely open and honest with Xu Qiang and Xu Qingyan, yet she still received such treatment; it's truly disheartening...
Ye Ran had once heard Bai Yue say that although Wei Jinlian was not good-looking when she was young, she came from a well-off family and was capable, otherwise Xu Qiang would not have taken a liking to her.
Although she was spoiled back then, she was more like a pampered child and not particularly excessive. But I never expected that she would become like this after marrying Xu Qiang. It's not just an exacerbation; she's practically a completely different person.
Ye Ran sneered to herself, thinking, "Isn't this all because of Xu Qiang? It's become a habit, and Wei Jinlian has become like that." But Ye Ran had no sympathy for her.
Even if she wasn't originally this kind of person, she is now, and Ye Ran will never forgive her for what she did!
Hearing Wei Jinlian's piercing screams, Ye Ran felt a headache coming on, wondering to herself why this dream hadn't ended yet...
Xu Qiang and Xu Qingyan were also getting fed up. Xu Qingyan glared at her, and Xu Qiang kicked her again.
"What are you yelling about in the middle of the night? Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough? You're going to attract the whole village here! Shut up!"
Regardless of whether people called her cheap or not, Wei Jinlian immediately shut her mouth and habitually helped Xu Qiang, who was a little unsteady from kicking her.
