Chapter 13: The Nightmare Begins
Looking at everything this familiarity, Concubine Ye couldn't help but recall everything at the beginning.
She lost her mother when she was three years old, and her father soon married a young lady from a scholarly family, that is, her later stepmother, Jiang Huiru.
Although the Jiang family is not a wealthy family, this woman is young and beautiful, and she has already become famous in the capital at a young age.
After Jiang Huiru married into the Ye family, she can be called meticulous and extremely pampered to herself, not only taking care of her daily life, but also patiently enlightening her, educating her, telling her stories, and playing games with her.
And when she was only three years old, she soon found solace in the loss of her mother, and since then she has naively regarded her as her mother.
In less than a year, her stepmother Jiang Huiru gave birth to a baby girl, named Ye Ya, and the following year, she gave birth to another baby girl, named Ye Ning.
Because of the lack of a boy to inherit the family business, Ye Ning was sent abroad when he was more than a year old and stayed with his grandfather to cultivate carefully, and the huge Ye family villa became a paradise for her and Ye Ya.
At that time, in her opinion, the little Ye Ya was like a delicate and well-behaved doll, very cute.
Coupled with her stepmother's deliberate teachings, she always couldn't help but spoil her, let her, take care of her, she gave her her favorite toys and gifts again and again, and even when Ye Ya grew up, as long as she spoke, no matter how much she liked something, she was willing to give it up.
It's a pity that such kindness did not get the reward it deserved, but instead fueled their greed.
At that time, she didn't understand that tens of millions of jade bracelets were not something anyone could easily bear, and millions of crystal crowns were enough to make people blush, and her innocence led to her later tragedy.
Eighteen years old is the age when she should inherit her mother's inheritance, and it is also the best age for her, but in fact, her eighteen years old is the beginning of her nightmare.
"Concubine, where is Xiao Wei? Tell him to come down and let him help his father entertain the guests. Her father spoke lovingly to her.
"Mingwei just accidentally got his clothes wet and went to my room to change his clothes, I'm going to see how he is."
She was wearing a white princess dress, wearing a crystal crown ordered by her father from Austria, and happily walked into the villa to urge her childhood sweetheart boyfriend, wanting to call him to accompany her father to entertain guests.
The bright crystal slipper stepped on the bright red carpet, and it seemed destined that she would be a princess who lost the crystal slipper.
She was halfway up the stairs holding on to the handrail, when she heard a heated argument coming from her stepmother's room.
"Mrs. Lu! Your decision is really too hasty, the concubine is still young, you announce her inheritance at this time, aren't you afraid that someone will have bad intentions and endanger the safety of the concubine! The stepmother explained anxiously.
"Hmph, Jiang Huiru, the concubine is young and ignorant, it doesn't mean that the old woman and I am blind! Over the years, you have been usurping the property of the concubine and making countless profits, don't think that I don't know the old woman! I don't think you're worried about the safety of your concubine at all, but you're reluctant to hand over your property, for fear that she will block your financial path! ”
"Mrs. Song, I have always treated the concubine as my own daughter, how can I worry about her property, I am so sad when you say this?"
"Enough! Don't be coy in front of me, over the years, you have used my daughter's inheritance to reap enough benefits, and now that the concubine is an adult, you should no longer be delusional about getting involved in her things, otherwise, my Song family will never be easy to bully! ”
The old woman was full of anger and anger, and the crutches in her hand kept beating on the ground.
