After stepping on the empty staircase and losing consciousness, even Ye had a dream.
She dreamed that she lived in the back kitchen and had a hard life. There were several patches on her clothes. She huddled in the corner of the kitchen to wash dishes and plates.
She washed dishes and dishes without stopping for more than ten hours a day, but she only ate dry and hard wild noodles and pancakes.
One day, she finally finished washing the plates and bowls. When she stood up, her brain was directly bloodshot, and she blacked out and fell to the ground.
...
Even Ye heard a rough bellow in a daze. It was sharp and harsh. "You're tired of living! How dare you steal our family's money?! See if I won't beat you to death!"
Then, the woman's voice was filled with sobs. "Boohoo... Mom, I just want to treat Yezi... Ah..."
Screams, insults, children's crying, and all kinds of voices mixed together, making her have a splitting headache.
Lian Ye opened her eyes and looked at the roof full of spider webs with her mouth wide open. There was firewood mixed in the mud wall. She sat up from the bed, and the straw on the lower part of the quilt rang.
"Could it really be at the end of the year?"
She was born in the countryside and had bad luck since she was a child. Her parents died when she was born and she grew up in an orphanage.
The dean, who loved her the most, fell to his death because of stepping on banana skin.
The little bird that was raised was choked to death by drinking water.
Her best friend had a meal with her and almost died from food poisoning.
It wasn't easy for him to get into college. He had been changing his career for ten years, but he finally became famous. In the end, he lost all his efforts!
"I'm going to beat you to death!"
"Ah... Mom, don't hit me..."
The miserable voice came from outside, getting weaker and weaker.
Even Ye's heart couldn't help but tremble. An unfamiliar memory told her that it was her mother, Li Lanying, who had been beaten.
She dragged her bare foot shoes and walked to the door. "Stop!"
Hearing the voice, everyone turned to look at Lian Ye in unison.
"Oh, you good-for-nothing! You've finally woken up! You can die even by brushing a plate. You're just a little girl! You're so delicate! Why didn't I drown you in the urine basin?" Old Madam Lian pointed her cane at Lian Ye. Her tone was vicious, and the two lines on her face were deeper, with a fierce look on her face.
Even Ye Zi looked over coldly.
A woman with messy hair lay on the ground in the yard, protecting a child in her arms. The child was so scared that he burst into tears.
The old lady was dressed in a common rural style. She was wearing a washed coarse white cloth gown and holding a wrist-thick cane in her hand.
The old man squatted under the eaves of the hall with a pipe, showing no intention of stopping them. There were two women standing next to him. Judging from the cloth patterns, they were more valuable than the women on the ground.
Lian Ye knew that she had truly been reborn.
It was also reborn to the human society.
There was the memory of the original owner in her mind. The original father was ranked third in his family. He had two elder brothers, a younger brother and a younger sister.
After six years of hard work, the original father wanted to make a career, but he could never come back.
It was said that he was dead.
Lian Guohao, the son of his second uncle, was going to be admitted to junior high school in September.
According to the teachers in the village, Lian Guohao was a smart boy. If he wanted to study hard, he could get into college. The old man and the old lady decided to send him to junior high school in the county.
Who would pay? Of course, the whole family would pay.
Even her father died outside, and her mother was in poor health. She had to take care of her younger brother, and her family was oppressing them.
They were all pointing at Lian Ye, who was grinding plates alone to earn money. The old lady didn't care about whether Lian Ye lived or died. She only wanted money.
Ground? They hadn't reached the farm yet. Even if they handed in the new grain and paid the grain fee and the village's remaining money, the rest would only be enough for the family to fill their stomachs.
Lian Ye ignored the old lady's scolding and went over to help Li Lanying up. "Mom" didn't come out for the time being. "... You get up first."
"Yezi, don't make your grandma angry. It's my fault. I shouldn't have stolen money..."
Li Lanying's voice was as loud as a mosquito's, and most of her body's weight was pressed on Lian Ye's body.
Without a man, she would be bullied at home. She would tolerate everything and was used to it.
Today, she stole money, but she saw that her daughter had a high fever and her breath was weak. She wanted to take some money to the town's health care center to see a doctor.
The old lady squinted her eyes and looked fierce. "You b*tch, how dare you talk about stealing money! Next time, if you dare to steal money again, I will beat you to death! Isn't this b*stard awake? If you don't work for me, you will all be lazy and slippery!"
Even the veins on Ye Qingyu's forehead bulged. In her previous life, she had created a restaurant brand and ran it well. She had also made a few more investments and her days had been flourishing. It had been a long time since she had interacted with a shrew woman.
"Grandma!" She grabbed the cane and approached with a straight face. Her eyes were cold. In her previous life, she was already a boss, and no one had ever dared to treat her like this. "Grandma is so partial to Second Uncle's family. Does she have to force our third branch to death?"
Matriarch Lian was stunned. The coldness in Lian Ye's eyes made her shiver.
Even Ye had always been timid. In the past, he had never dared to speak to her like this!
"You little b*tch! Damn you! Guohao is your brother! He will be admitted to college in the future, and he will treat you badly!" The old lady glared at him, as if she wanted to eat Lian Ye.
Matriarch Lian's heart was full of happiness. After the teachers in the village said a few words about Lian Guohao, she really felt that Lian Guohao's future would be bright.
After all, it was not easy to have a college student in a village in the Middle East.
This was something that didn't even have a shadow, yet the entire Lian family already took it to heart.
Lian Ye said sarcastically, "What does it have to do with me that Lian Guohao got admitted to college? Now it's a new era, and there's no reason for a family to support a student like in ancient times. You hurt my mother, and I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. I have to take her to see a doctor!"
After that, she helped Li Lanying to go out. "Mom, let's go."
There were memories of the original owner in her mind.
The old lady felt that her brother had risked his life to kill her son. He didn't take her family seriously at all.
In this era, an ordinary person's monthly salary was only about a dozen or twenty yuan. A piece of pork cost seven hair and five Jin, an egg cost two, two hair and three Jin. Even the salary of twenty yuan earned from washing dishes and plates every month was given to Matriarch Lian.
However, even the old madam couldn't bear to spend even a single cent of money on the Ye family. Even the family members of the Lian family, including Ye Lanying, had to take the risk of eating coarse noodles and wild cakes every day. The rest of them were eating plain rice.
The old lady loved him so much that she gave him an egg every day. Her beautiful name was Lian Guohao, who could take the college exam in the future.
Once, she even took a small bite of Guohao's egg and was beaten half to death by the old lady.
Thinking of this, Lian Ye felt a burst of pain in her heart. She took a deep breath.
"Now I have to rely on them to make money and humiliate them. How can I expect the Lians to be good to me when they are rich?"
If she allowed this family to be bullied by the Old Madam Lian like this, she would be gnawed into pieces by the Old Madam sooner or later!
Old Madam Lian's eyes widened as she muttered to herself, "Could it be that this b*tch has encountered an evil spirit?"
"You b*tch, how dare you! If you dare to take half a step out of this house today, you won't be able to come back!"
Lian Ye sneered and said, "Well, according to grandma's meaning, we are going to split up. Then let's split up!"
