Chapter 399
Ye Zhiyu turned around and looked at Sheng Tianyi beside him. As expected, she saw that Sheng Tianyi had an unfriendly look on his face, with a hint of anger on his face.
"I'm fine. He can't achieve his goal today, so he definitely won't want to let me go." Ye Zhiyu knew too well what Mr. Sheng wanted.
When people are young, they pursue fame, wealth and all kinds of pleasures in the world.
When people get old, they will return to "nature" and want to see their children and grandchildren sitting around them and enjoy their old age.
Ye Zhiyu refused to recognize his ancestral roots, which made Mr. Sheng very uncomfortable.
He didn't want to see any of his grandsons fail to acknowledge him, nor did he want to see such a capable granddaughter have no sense of belonging to the Sheng family.
He wanted Ye Zhiyu to acknowledge the Sheng family and admit that she was a member of the Sheng family.
He also didn't understand. Everything he did was for Ye Zhiyu's own good, so why didn't she appreciate it!
This is what puzzled him the most.
"My dear, the old man did have his reasons. Before you were born, your mother had already suffered countless hardships. She was kidnapped many times, fell many times, and had various accidents..."
"You don't know how many hardships and accidents Madam went through, and how much manpower and material resources the Sheng family spent to protect Madam and give birth to you and the young master on that October day."
From the butler's point of view, the old man is right.
If it weren't for the old man, Ye Zhiyu and Sheng Tianyi would never have had the chance to be born.
Therefore, he felt that Ye Zhiyu should at least not be so rebellious and cold towards the old man.
Ye Zhiyu had no memories of the past and didn’t know what Madam Sheng had gone through during the ten months of her pregnancy, but she was certain that Madam Sheng had been kidnapped more than a dozen times, which only showed that the Sheng family’s bodyguards were useless.
"If the Sheng family can't protect his wife and children, it's because of their incompetence. What does it have to do with me?"
Ye Zhiyu refused to be kidnapped. She did not fall into the other party's trap and refuted calmly.
It was hard for her to doubt that Mr. Sheng was a good man since he could allow Mrs. Sheng to get pregnant in such a dangerous environment.
She even thought he was useless.
Otherwise, Mr. Sheng would not have passed the reins of the family to her, or Sheng Tianyi, without his knowledge.
Ye Zhiyu's words were very blunt, and the butler was so choked that he didn't say anything for a long time.
"That's not the case. All those things happened when the madam was pregnant with you. So, it's not the Sheng family's incompetence..." The housekeeper went over what happened at that time in his mind before he found a point to refute Ye Zhiyu.
However, this point was quickly overturned by Sheng Tianyi.
"I remember that was when the Sheng family was about to expand rapidly, right?" One could only say that he and his sister were lucky, instead of thanking the Sheng family for being so capable.
Sheng Tianyi knew the entire history of the Sheng family's rise, so he naturally would not miss the ten months when his mother was pregnant with him.
So, when the butler said this, Sheng Tianyi refuted the other party without thinking.
The housekeeper was speechless after being blocked by Sheng Tianyi.
"It seems that my sister has never suffered any hardship. All her sufferings were brought by grandpa..." Sheng Tianyi suddenly discovered something.
Whether it was the suffering his mother experienced during her pregnancy, or the suffering his sister suffered after she was switched after she was born, the culprit was his grandfather.
There is no one else at all.
He even suspected that the disaster his grandfather mentioned was left by his grandmother to his grandfather, asking him to carefully protect it instead of "letting nature take its course"...
The more he thought about it, the more Sheng Tianyi felt that his idea was correct.
Then, Sheng Tianyi looked at Ye Zhiyu with even more sorrow.
When the two looked at each other, magically, their moods suddenly became the same, and their thoughts were surprisingly consistent. They both felt that Ye Zhiyu's suffering was caused by the other party.
So, Sheng Tianyi looked at the housekeeper without thinking.
"Go ask Grandpa if he still remembers what my grandma said to him."
Sheng Tianyi really wanted to know what his grandma had said to his grandpa, asking him to be firm in his belief, not change his mind, and to send his sister to experience difficulties.
housekeeper:"?"
Aren’t they talking about how to get the eldest daughter to stay in the Sheng family?
How come the eldest young master and the eldest young lady are targeting the old man together?
Although the housekeeper was puzzled, he still obediently went upstairs and asked about the origin of the incident and how it was said.
He felt that this matter would be the key to whether the eldest lady would stay in the Sheng family.
When Sheng Tianyi saw the housekeeper turn around, he asked Ye Zhiyu beside him, "Do you... want to go up with me and listen to what Grandpa said?"
"Okay." Ye Zhiyu did not refuse and followed Sheng Tianyi. After they went upstairs, they heard the voices of the housekeeper and the old man coming from the old man's room.
The two of them subconsciously paused and listened to the words inside.
-
"Master, the young master asked me to ask you, how did the old lady ask you to take care of the eldest lady? What were the original words?" The butler repeated Sheng Tianyi's request respectfully.
Upon hearing this, the old man of the Sheng family frowned immediately.
"What does he mean? Is he doubting me?"
He has been a big shot in Hong Kong for many years, and no one dared to say anything bad about him or question his decisions, but what happened?
When he got old, his grandson began to question him?
The housekeeper resisted the old man's oppressive gaze and argued with difficulty, "The eldest young master probably wants to keep the eldest young lady, so he asked this question, right?"
If he didn't want to keep the eldest daughter, why would he bother his master with such things?
After hearing what the butler said, Mr. Sheng's expression looked much better.
"You're right. Let me think about what she said back then..." As he spoke, the old man of the Sheng family's thoughts gradually drifted away, drifting back to twenty years ago when his old wife passed away.
The gray-haired old lady Sheng was lying on the hospital bed, bleeding from all her seven orifices, but there was no fear on her face. On the contrary, her face was full of relief.
She looked at her husband sitting next to her with a warm smile, "Look at you, why are you crying like a baby?"
Her joke did not improve Mr. Sheng's expression, he was still sobbing.
"Not long after I die, my eldest wife will be pregnant with twins." The smile on the old lady's face faded, and she explained the funeral arrangements in a calm voice.
This was the thing she cared about most before she died.
After hearing what the old lady said, the old man of the Sheng family stopped sobbing. He looked up at his wife and asked, "Is this your reincarnation?"
"Get lost! You idiot!" The old lady, bleeding from all seven orifices, yelled, "I'm telling you off because you made my granddaughter suffer so much after she was born! It's all your fault that she was displaced!"
"She was born with a destiny. If you don't take good care of her, her soul will die! Do you hear me?"
……
The voice of his wife's scolding gradually drifted into his mind, causing the old man's face to freeze. He seemed a little unbelievable. His memory could not be wrong. It was clearly -
