That young girl looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, about the same age as Ye Linlang.
Her hair was as black as ink. Although her facial features had not fully matured and there were some traces of youth, just by standing there in a red dress, she looked exceptionally youthful and lively. She would definitely be a great beauty in the future.
Even though her posture was so arrogant, no matter who looked at her, they could not help but want to hold her in their hands and feel the pain. They felt that she had the right to be arrogant.
On the other hand, Ye Linlang, who had disheveled hair and wore a tattered dress, was completely different from the young girl. They were like heaven and earth.
Seeing Ye Linlang standing there in a daze, the beautiful young girl in a red dress raised her eyebrows. The disdain in her eyes deepened.
âHey, Ye Linlang, Iâm talking to you? Are you a mute?â
Anyone could hear that the girlâs tone towards Ye Linlang was very unfriendly.
Ye Linlang silently stared at the other party, feeling a slight pain in her heart.
This was clearly the first time they had met. She did not know what she had done to provoke the other partyâs attitude.
Ye Linlang pursed her lips bitterly. Her voice was a little clumsy.
âHello, Iâm Ye Linlang. May I ask who you are?â
Ye Linlangâs attitude was very polite.
Granny had said that no matter what others did, she had to maintain her own demeanor.
...
Hearing Ye Linlang obediently admit her identity, the young girl raised her chin proudly and looked at Ye Linlang from the corner of her eyes as if she was looking at a clown.
âYouâre just a country bumpkin from the countryside. Why should I tell you my identity personally?â
This girl was simply toying with her like she was a monkey!
Ye Linlang was slightly angry in her heart.
Although she had a gentle personality, she couldnât stand others looking down on her so much!
Which familyâs ancestors three or four generations and werenât country bumpkins?
On what basis did she have to look down on others so much?!
Just as Ye Linlangâs face alternated between red and white, she suddenly heard the beautiful middle-aged woman next to her berate the young girl in a low voice.
âSiyao, how could you say that? She... Linlang is still your biological sister no matter what. Show some respect.â
Although she was lecturing the girl called Siyao as if she was helping Ye Linlang, the middle-aged woman didnât even look Ye Linlang in the eye when she spoke.
Instead, she reached out and pulled Ye Siyao, her eyes filled with pity and indulgence for Ye Siyao.
Anyone could tell that this middle-aged woman doted on Ye Siyao a lot.
...
Siyao...
Biological sister?
Ye Linlang jolted, feeling as if something had smashed into her head, jolting her out of her wits.
This girl called Siyao in front of her was her biological sister?
Although Ye Linlang had long guessed this girlâs identity and thought that she was a relative of the Ye family, she didnât expect that she was actually her biological sister!
She had a biological sister!
Just as Ye Linlangâs mind was shaken, the girl called Ye Siyao stuck out her tongue and went straight into the middle-aged womanâs arms.
She coquettishly held onto the middle-aged womanâs arm with a natural pride on her face.
âMommy, what did I say wrong? I just donât want to call a country bumpkin from the countryside sister.â
Before she could finish her sentence, Ye Siyao looked at the middle-aged woman and snuggled into her arms as if she was asking for her approval.
The middle-aged woman seemed to completely ignore Ye Siyaoâs contempt for Ye Linlang. Instead, she indulgently poked Ye Siyao on the cheek.
âYouâve always been this mischievous since you were young. Fine, if you donât want to call her, then donât. But you shouldnât say the word âcountry bumpkin.â After all, sheâs a member of our Ye family, so it wouldnât sound good if word got out.â
âOkay, okay. Iâll just call her Ye Linlang from now on.â
...
Ye Linlang heard their conversation as if there was no one else around. Her fingertips trembled slightly, and her face turned pale!
So this was how her biological sister looked at her?!
And the people around her, including the Ye familyâs parents, seemed to have tacitly agreed with this sentence. No one refuted Ye Siyaoâs words!
Since everyone looked down on her like this, then why did her parents want her to come back?
Ye Linlang looked at the happy scene of Ye Siyao and her family of three and felt a thorn in her heart.
The sixteen-year-old girl just stood there silently, her eyes slightly red.
It was probably because of the last trace of pride in her heart that she didnât cry.
Clearly, that middle-aged woman was not only Ye Siyaoâs mother, but also her mother!
Mother...
Why did she have to follow Ye Siyao and despise her so much?
If her younger sister was young and immature, then what about her mother?
Ye Linlang saw the mother and daughterâs intimate scene and even mocked herself from time to time. She suddenly felt humiliated.
She finally lowered her head in shame and forced herself to look at the ground. Only then did she manage to not escape from this place.
A small difficulty makes a big thing impossible.
She was only 16 years old and had no financial resources at all. Moreover, in A City, food and clothing were very expensive. Ye Linlang knew better than anyone that if she ran out of the Ye family now, she might starve to death on the streets tomorrow.
...
After the mother and daughter were intimate for a long time, they seemed to remember that there was like some person there called Ye Linlang.
The middle-aged beautiful woman could not help but frown when she saw Ye Linlangâs embarrassed look.
As expected, she was a wild girl from the countryside. She looked so petty and unpresentable!
If not for Old Madam Ye feeling that she had committed too many sins before her death and saying that she could not let go of this granddaughter, how could she be willing to let Haifeng bring this jinx back to the Ye family!
Although Ye Linlang was her own blood and bone, Madam Ye had never treated her as her own daughter.
At that time, she had wholeheartedly wanted to give birth to a son, but who knew that it would end up being fraternal twins? It was fine if they were twins, but it just so happened that this jinx had killed her son!
The Ye family valued sons over daughters, so at that time, Madam Ye was completely looked down upon in the Ye family. She blamed this on Ye Linlang.
The moment Ye Linlang was born, she was sent to a remote mountain village in the blink of an eye, and it was the poorest kind of place!
After that, Madam Ye was determined to have another child, but unfortunately, it was still a daughter.
And because Madam Yeâs uterus was bleeding heavily, she couldnât have another child. From then on, the Ye family accepted their fate and raised Ye Siyao as a precious gem.
...
Madam Ye walked to the stone table by the pond and pushed Ye Haifeng, who had been reading the newspaper.
âHaifeng, go introduce yourself.â
Only then did Ye Haifeng stand up unwillingly.
He sized up Ye Linlang, who had a blank look on her face, and his expression was a little unhappy.
âHere, youâre Linlang, right? Iâm your father, Ye Haifeng. Siyao, you heard it just now. Sheâs your sister, and this is your mother.â
Ye Linlang held her hands awkwardly and summoned up her courage to call out.
âDaddy, Mommy...â
Ye Haifeng nodded nonchalantly as a form of acknowledgment.
But Madam Ye suddenly screamed.
âDonât call me mom!â
