Chapter 762: Who Is More Ruthless

After hearing this, Sun Dongqing finally knew that it was her mother-in-law who decided to let her undergo the sterilization surgery!

What she hated the most was that the old woman still pretended as though she was thinking for her!

Didn’t she know why she felt so frightened about giving birth? It was because that old woman kept telling her how dangerous it was for a woman to give birth! Those that were unlucky might even lose both the mother and the child’s lives!

Then, the old woman told her that cesarean birth wasn’t painful at all. Once she took the anesthesia, the child would appear beside her the moment she opened her eyes again, safe and sound.

That was why she was tempted to do the cesarean! If she knew that there was another plot behind this, why would she decide to do cesarean? To think that she felt so grateful towards that old woman at that time. To please the old woman, she even created trouble for Sun Xueqing whenever she could.

Sun Dongqing had tears all over her face when she thought about the past.

Ye Zhifan naturally remembered all these things too. His cheeks hurt as he tried to control his anger. But what’s the point of talking about it now?

That year, the old woman was vicious and didn’t leave behind any traces. When Sun Dongqing did cesarean, the entire village knew that the mother-in-law couldn’t bear to watch her daughter-in-law suffer so she’d rather fork out more money to do the cesarean. Whenever people talked about this, all the daughters-in-law in the village would admire Sun Dongqing.

Who knew that the mother-in-law paid money to do a sterilization surgery on the daughter-in-law? How cruel must her heart be?

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was extremely tense. Ye Ying glanced at the time and said in a soft voice, “Dad, why not we listen to Mom? I don’t think I should go. Grandma doesn’t like me anyway.”

“Yingying, you need to go. Grandma hasn’t seen you for a few years. She misses you.” Ye Zhifan disagreed. Then, he spoke in a low voice to Sun Dongqing, “You know my mother’s temper. If we don’t go today, she might come to look for me at my workplace.”

Sun Dongqing eyes had turned red from anger. In the end, she still relented. She snarled, “We can’t let Yingying go alone. We must get that wicked girl Ye Jian too!”

“Do you think that’s possible?” Ye Zhifan scoffed. He glanced at his nervous daughter and said, “We should think about how to explain what happened to Ye Jian. The old lady will definitely ask about her.”

Ye Ying wanted to ask her parents what happened that year, but now, she didn’t dare to anymore.

In the hotel, Ye Zhixiang kept looking at the time. After ten minutes pa.s.sed, she got impatient. “Why aren’t they here yet? Are they not coming? Mom, maybe you should call them again. Brother always obeys your words.”

Obey my words?

Grandma Ye smiled and replied, “Zhixiang, your brother’s government career has been very smooth-sailing. Your mother is afraid that I have to beg him for help in the future.”

“This brother of yours is smarter than your oldest brother. He is sly too. He is a director of a department now, so he might not listen to me as much as he did last time. However…” Grandma Ye paused for a moment. The smile on her face turned shallower. “However, no matter how hard his wings are, he still needs to respect his mother.”

Ye Zhixiang felt relieved. Her mother had always been the family head. Sometimes, Sun Yaozu had to ask for Grandma Ye’s opinion when he wanted to do something.

Her mother might have grown up in a village, but she was born to a wealthy family in the old society. If her father weren’t a capitalist who got all his a.s.sets taken away during the great revolution, she wouldn’t have married into the Ye family, who had been poor farmers for many generations.

They waited for another half an hour. Grandma Ye’s smile had almost disappeared before Ye Zhifan arrived with his wife and daughter. They knocked on the door of room 808.
