She and Ye Lingyu competed for Ye Zongzhi's fatherly love, while her mother and Ye Lingyu's mother competed for Ye Zongzhi's love.
After all the fighting, Ye Lingyu's mother died, and Ye Lingyu was driven away. And what was the result?
The result was that Ye Zongzhi had no heart at all.
After forcing Ye Lingyu away, he quickly arranged a marriage for himself with the young master of the county magistrate's family.
In recent years, he has never asked whether Ye Lingyu is still alive, and seems to have forgotten that he has such a daughter.
As for Ye Lingxi, everything remained the same.
No, it can't be said that everything is the same as before; rather, it can be said that Ye Zongzhi still shows her a little more care.
Although it's very likely that he came to the county office to look for her because he had a good relationship with the county magistrate.
Even if it was just a superficial response, Ye Zongzhi chatted with her more casually and showed her more care.
At least that's what Ye Lingxi thought, and she was even quite pleased with herself at one point.
Sure enough, even without Ye Lingyu, she and Ye Zongzhi could get along well like any other father and daughter.
Today, Ye Zongzhi has shattered everything. Liar! Liar!
She was so angry! Why? Why, even after Ye Lingyu had been gone for so long, and disappeared for so long, did she still lose to Ye Lingyu!
She also hated Ye Zongzhi! Why couldn't he show her even a little bit of care?
Even if it's a lie, she'll accept it!
Why? Because she's Ye Zongzhi's own daughter too!
Where exactly did she and her mother lose to those two vile women, Ye Lingyu and Bai Ruosu?
Yes, her mother, she still has her mother!
She wanted to leave the county government office to find her mother, but found two more yamen runners outside the courtyard.
She had always lived with the magistrate and his family in the backyard of the county government office. Unexpectedly, what ultimately trapped her was the magistrate's order.
Her husband, the young master of the county magistrate's family, was not by her side at this time. Instead, he was hiding in the arms of some other woman.
This is so unfair! She couldn't understand why fate was treating her this way!
Her resentment and bitterness were unknown to the people in Mengjia Village.
Cheng Qingyan and Ye Lingyu were discussing the aquatic product farming in their space, and genuinely had no time to think about Ye Lingxi.
I briefly mentioned that she should be careful to send people over to cause trouble, but I didn't mention her again.
The next day, Jiang Jiang was driven over early in the morning by Shen Ziyu and Ruan Banxia, along with Meng Chuying.
Mu Zhiyue and Hongyu were also in the carriage. Rather than leaving them in Shuanghe Village, it would be more reassuring to have them with him.
Jiang Jiang hasn't been home for several days, so it's probably a lie to say she doesn't miss home.
As soon as the carriage came to a stop, she picked up Wangcai and ran over with her short legs.
"Father, Mother~ Jiangjiang has missed you so much~"
These familiar words, "I miss you guys so much," are so familiar!
"Mother misses Jiangjiang too~"
Wangcai was eventually thrown to the ground, while Jiangjiang was picked up by Ye Lingyu.
With a loud yelp of dissatisfaction, Wangcai looked at Jiangjiang being picked up and whimpered twice.
When it comes to being a dog, it's really not as good as Jiang Jiang.
But soon, the wealthy and wary Kujo started playing around with Wangcai.
The three little ones are growing up and are no longer as thin as before.
The carriage came to a smooth stop at the door, and Hongyu helped Mu Zhiyue out of the carriage.
Mu Zhiyue and Hongyu had only spent one night here last time, and the next day Cheng Qingyan and the others sent them to Shuanghe Village. They hadn't had a chance to properly see the place where Ye Lingyu had lived for several years.
On the open ground just a wall away, dozens of workers are now gathered.
They were invited by Cheng Qingyan to build the new house. Because the construction of this house was much more complicated than building an ordinary house, he specially selected some people from nearby towns and villages.
Back then, everyone was saying that Ye Lingyu had married a scoundrel, and Mu Zhiyue was sad for a long time after he was imprisoned.
I feel ashamed of the trust placed in me by Ye Lingyu's mother, and also ashamed of the trust placed in me by the old lady of the Bai family.
After spending time together several times, Mu Zhiyue also noticed that Cheng Qingyan and Ye Lingyu got along very well and were very loving.
Cheng Qingyan was not as bad as the rumors suggested at all; he was very caring and attentive to Ye Lingyu.
The friends he made were also very reliable, which put his mind at ease.
Amidst the warm atmosphere, Mu Zhiyue couldn't help but shed tears.
Ye Lingyu carried Jiangjiang to Mu Zhiyue's side and quietly asked, "Uncle Mu, what's wrong?"
Mu Zhiyue wiped his tears with his sleeve: "Xiaoyu, Uncle Mu is alright, Uncle Mu is happy~"
"You should be smiling when you're happy, Grandpa Mu, why are you crying?" Jiang Jiang asked, bewildered.
Children cannot fully understand these complex emotions of adults.
All I know is that this adult is acting strangely; he cries even when he's happy.
Shouldn't we cry when we're sad?
Shouldn't you smile when you're happy?
As a new human being, she did not yet understand that humans could express joy and sorrow in ways other than just crying and laughing.
Mu Zhiyue was amused by Jiang Jiang's innocent yet earnest expression: "Little Jiang Jiang, Grandpa Mu is just too happy, and he couldn't hold back his tears for a moment."
Jiang Jiang, nestled in Ye Lingyu's arms, raised her little round hand, seemingly understanding, and placed it on Mu Zhiyue's head, patting it gently: "Patting your head will stop you from crying~ When I cried before, Daddy would pat my head like this, and then I would stop crying."
"Jiangjiang, come here, Daddy will take you to play with Wangcai!" Cheng Qingyan quickly took Jiangjiang from Ye Lingyu's arms.
What's wrong with this child! She's far too bold, actually touching Mu Zhiyue's head! Even she wouldn't dare to touch him!
No, that's not the key point. The key point is that Jiangjiang still needs to study and learn how to be a good person.
Be a polite person, otherwise you won't even know how you got beaten up someday.
However, Jiang Jiang isn't human, so probably no one can hit her.
Jiang Jiang was carried away by Cheng Qingyan to play with Fu Gui and Jiu Tiao, and Meng Chuying followed.
Ruan Banxia and the others had something to say to Ye Lingyu, but she wasn't sure if she could listen, so she simply came over to play with Jiang Jiang.
After all, Jiang Jiang is quite cute too!
Just as Jiang Jiang touched Jiu Tiao's back, Jiu Tiao was startled by the noise outside and quickly ran away from Jiang Jiang's grasp.
"Chu Ying, keep an eye on Jiang Jiang, I'm going to see what's going on."
Cheng Qingyan was with Jiang Jiang at the small bamboo house, which was closest to the main gate. After instructing Meng Chuying, she got up and walked towards the door.
Another carriage and a group of servants arrived, but this time the yamen runners were different, and a group of soldiers also accompanied them.
The officers and soldiers, about a hundred in number, looked rather imposing.
The setup this time is similar to the one Ye Lingxi had when she last came, and it's even less impressive than when Ye Lingxi came.
At least, the carriage and horses are not as good as the last time we came, because they are no longer adorned with gold ornaments.
The carriage stopped in front of Cheng Qingyan's house, and a middle-aged man who was about the same age as Mu Zhiyue got off the carriage.
