Defrosting The Cold Young Master

Chapter 2357: Chapter 2361: Blessings or Curses

Ye Xingbei’s second uncle’s back hurt as if it were broken.

Ye Xingbei’s second aunt’s leg seemed snapped, hobbling as she walked.

Ye Xingbei’s eldest cousin had a black eye, the second cousin’s head was injured, and both of the cousins’ wives had their faces scratched and marked with blood.

The six of them, supporting each other, went to the barefoot doctor in the village.

The barefoot doctor said that Ye Xingbei’s uncle and aunt were too badly injured for him to treat and needed to go to the hospital.

Ye Xingbei’s eldest cousin’s wife suddenly turned sullen: "What hospital? We have no money!"

"Yeah," snarled Ye Xingbei’s second cousin’s wife, "I just don’t get it. That damn girl you keep talking about, she’s your family. How come she gave so much money to others and not a cent to you?"

The thought of it made her so angry it hurt.

That was six hundred thousand!

If their family had six hundred thousand, they could leave this wretched village, go to town, maybe even to the county seat.

Not to mention, Ye Xingbei casually gave an outsider six hundred thousand, and they were her relatives!

If they were on good terms with Ye Xingbei, she might have given them six million, even ten million!

If they had that kind of money, they’d be able to go to Beijing, let alone the county seat!

But reality?

The reality is that Ye Xingbei would rather give six hundred thousand to someone unrelated than a single cent to them!

That six hundred thousand was given out from Ye Xingbei’s own hands, but to them, it was as if Ye Xingbei had given away what should have been theirs.

Thinking about the six hundred thousand made them feel excruciatingly bad.

"That heartless damn girl!" Ye Xingbei’s second aunt felt even worse than the others.

If Ye Xingbei had given her that six hundred thousand, she wouldn’t have to live under the whims of her two daughters-in-law!

Ever since she and her man got older, weaker, unable to work the fields and earn money, her two daughters-in-law hadn’t shown them a single kind expression.

If Ye Xingbei had given her that money, wouldn’t both daughters-in-law be trying to please her?

Would she have to endure this kind of treatment?

She and her man got injured, and the daughters-in-law wouldn’t even take them to the hospital.

Even now, they could take care of themselves, and this is how the daughters-in-law treated them.

If in the future they were bedridden, who knows how the daughters-in-law would torment her.

The more she thought about it, the angrier and more upset she became, slapping her thighs and wailing, "That heartless damn girl, we raised her up with so much effort, and now that she’s successful, she doesn’t know how to be filial, but gives all her money to outsiders. How unlucky am I, to have such an ungrateful niece..."

"Oh, give it a rest!" mocked Ye Xingbei’s eldest cousin’s wife knowingly, "I heard you tried to sell her to a crippled old man back then, and that’s why she stealthily ran away! Just like Uncle Yang said, she hates your guts. Now that she’s successful and isn’t even taking revenge, that’s her being kind. And you want her to give you money? Keep dreaming!"

When Ye Xingbei left the village, she and the second brother’s wife weren’t married into the family yet.

They’d heard gossip about Ye Xingbei, but never took it to heart before.

One less freeloader meant a good thing to them.

But now they knew, good thing, my foot!

It turned out to be the worst thing possible!

The little girl who ran away from home to avoid an arranged marriage had now become wealthy.

If she just spared a tiny fraction, they could live a life of luxury.

But just because those two geezers treated her poorly, she would rather give the money to outsiders than to those two geezers!
