Lin San was stunned for a moment: "You still have a grandma."
Ye Ling'er rolled her eyes at Lin San: "Why do you sound so awkward? Of course I have a grandma."
"Uh..." Lin San smiled awkwardly: "I don't mean anything else. I'm just surprised... Well, is your grandma also in Huaiyang Town?"
Ye Ling'er nodded: "Yes. My grandma lives in Huaiyang Town. She loved me very much when I was a child."
"Grandma is celebrating her birthday. It's natural for my granddaughter to go there to celebrate her birthday," Lin San said with a smile.
"I really want to go and celebrate grandma's birthday. But I..." Ye Ling'er suddenly stopped mid-sentence. There seemed to be something unspeakable.
Lin San blinked: "Are you worried about the gift?" Lin San knew that Ye Ling'er was short of money and probably couldn't bring out any decent gifts. Lin San secretly thought about it, why don't he go out and find a way to get some money.
"It's not because of the gift." Ye Ling'er shook her head.
"What's that for?" Lin San was confused.
"It's because..." Ye Ling'er bit her lip: "I'm afraid I won't be able to see grandma at all."
"The more I listen, the more confused I am. Why can't I see my own grandma?" Lin San thinks that his IQ is quite high. But after thinking about it over and over again, he still can't figure out the meaning of Ye Ling'er's words. .In the end, Lin San had to admit: Ye Ling'er's IQ was higher than hers.
Ye Ling'er glanced at Lin San: "You may not be aware of some things. In fact, I... I am an illegitimate daughter..." Next, Ye Ling'er told a miserable experience of her own.
Eighteen years ago.
The mayor of Huaiyang Town, Ye Haoran, got drunk and raped a maid. Afterwards, the maid turned out to be pregnant with a child. At the suggestion of Ye Haoran's mother, Ye Haoran married the maid as his seventh wife. Concubine.
Ten months later, the maid gave birth to a girl named Ye Linger.
Ye Ling'er has hated being smart since she was a child. She can recite poetry at the age of three and paint at the age of five. She is deeply loved by the old lady in the backyard (the old lady is Ye Haoran's mother).
But Ye Haoran has always favored boys over girls. He has no regard for Ye Ling'er at all. In addition, Ye Ling'er's mother has a humble background, which makes Ye Haoran even more unwelcome. Ye Haoran's eldest wife is a vicious-hearted woman. People usually bully Ye Ling'er and her daughter every now and then. If it weren't for the face of the old lady in the backyard, the eldest lady would have kicked Ye Ling'er and her daughter out of the mansion long ago.
Not long after the peaceful days passed, disaster struck for Ye Ling'er and her daughter.
The old lady suddenly suffered a stroke. After rescue, she finally saved her life. However, she became paralyzed. She could not speak well and her brain became dull.
Without the protection of the old lady, Ye Ling'er and her daughter were finally driven out of the house by the vicious eldest lady. At that time, Ye Haoran was standing at the gate, watching Ye Ling'er and her daughter being driven away. He did not say a word.
After being kicked out of the Ye Mansion, Ye Ling'er's mother died of illness not long after, leaving a lonely Ye Ling'er. In order to survive, Ye Ling'er began begging on the streets. Ye Ling'er was only twelve years old at the time.
Later, Ye Ling'er was taken in by a kind-hearted aunt. The aunt was a widow and had no children. After taking Ye Ling'er in, the aunt treated Ye Ling'er as her own daughter. But God seemed to be having trouble with Ye Ling'er. Two years later, the aunt slipped and fell into the river and drowned. From then on, Ye Linger became a helpless little girl again.
…
After listening to Ye Ling'er's story, Lin Sanqi's face turned livid: "That Ye Haoran is a bastard. He even kicked his own daughter out of the house. He is simply inhumane and a beast..."
Ye Ling'er smiled bitterly and said, "It's my life that's miserable. I shouldn't have been born in this world."
Lin San exhaled a breath and looked at Ye Ling'er: "Miss Ye, please don't say that. Everyone's life has its meaning. Especially since you have endured so many hardships, you should cherish your life even more."
"I know. I have always been very strong." Ye Ling'er frowned and said, "I really want to celebrate my grandma's eightieth birthday. In this world, grandma is the only one who still loves me. But I'm worried. ...Ye Haoran won't let me enter the house." Ever since she was kicked out of the Ye Mansion, Ye Ling'er swore that she would never recognize Ye Haoran as her father again.
"Hmph. He dares. Miss Ye, don't worry. I will accompany you to your grandma's birthday. If anyone dares to stop you from entering, I will smash his teeth and break his legs." Lin San said with cold eyes. .
"This..." Ye Ling'er hesitated: "I don't want to implicate you..."
Lin San said dissatisfied: "Are we friends?"
"Of course we are friends." Ye Linger said without thinking.
"Friends should help each other." Lin San pouted: "Don't you want to meet your grandma?"
"Okay. I'll listen to you." Ye Linger thought for a while and finally nodded in agreement.
"Pa." Lin San snapped her fingers: "Tomorrow I will accompany you to buy a gift to celebrate grandma's birthday. You can't go empty-handed."
Of course Ye Linger has no objection.
Early the next morning, Lin San and Ye Ling'er came out from home.
The morning air is fresh in your mouth. It feels so refreshing when you breathe it into your nose.
While walking on the crowded street, Lin San asked Ye Ling'er beside him: "What does your grandma like?"
"I can't tell." Ye Ling'er was also a little worried: "What do you think I should buy."
"Eh." Lin San suddenly laughed: "It's really a narrow road for enemies. It's not easy for us to go out and meet these little bastards. It's really unlucky."
Ye Ling'er looked up. Her expression became ugly. Several people walked up not far ahead. The leaders were actually Yang Dashu and Wang Xiaomao.
At this time, Yang Dashu and Wang Xiaomao also discovered Lin San and Ye Ling'er. Their expressions suddenly became colorful. Without saying a word, they turned around and wanted to run away.
"Stop." Lin San shouted softly.
Yang Dashu and Wang Xiaomao trembled. They turned around slowly and looked at Lin San with a grimace: "Big...big brother, are you okay?" Several young people who came with Yang Dashu and Wang Xiaomao were stunned. They didn't understand why Yang Dashu and Wang Xiaomao became so frightened.
Lin San snorted coldly: "You don't even say hello when you see me. Don't you take me seriously?" Lin San is really looking for trouble.
Yang Dashu's face twitched a few times: "No. We really didn't see you, brother, just now... If we saw you, brother, how could we not say hello, right? Xiaomao." The last part of the sentence was addressed to Wang Xiaomao.
"Ah, yes, yes." Wang Xiaomao nodded repeatedly.
"You still know each other. Go away." Lin San waved his hand.
Yang Dashu and Wang Xiaomao immediately led their men and fled.
