Chapter 94 The Ye Family Falls Apart
Madam Ye, unwilling to let go of her only lifeline, quickly chased after them.
"Give me back my Ye family's grandsons, they'll support me in my old age."
Before Madam Ye could get close, Li Xiumei kicked her, sending her sprawling to the ground.
"Scram!"
As Madam Ye hit the ground, she heard a crack from her waist, and immediately lost the ability to move it. Watching the departing trio, she wailed again.
"She's trying to kill me! My daughter-in-law is trying to kill me! Someone call the police and arrest that bitch!"
The onlookers, seeing this as a Li family matter, didn't want to get involved and turned to go home.
The Li family members, on the other hand, were even less likely to associate themselves with anyone or anything from the Ye family. They had disowned their own daughter; who would care about a decrepit old woman?
Seeing everyone disappear in an instant, Madam Ye forgot about her wailing. Her waist truly ached so much that she couldn't move.
With no one to help her, she gritted her teeth and slowly got up, hobbling home step by step. She intended to go home, get money for treatment, and then report that "bitch" to the police.
However, when Madam Ye returned home and opened her trunk, she discovered the money was gone. The trunk was clearly locked, and she had just opened it with her key.
A shock went through her, and she quickly rummaged through everything in the trunk. Things were tossed everywhere, but not a single cent was found.
Ignoring the pain in her waist, she crawled to where she had hidden money in a mouse hole. But even this last sliver of hope vanished.
Madam Ye choked on her breath and fainted.
Liu Xiumei was equally ruthless. She returned home with her sons and found not a single grain of rice in the house. Clenching her fists, she found the property deed and went straight to her next-door neighbor.
Soon, she obtained four hundred yuan and some ration coupons. Upon returning, she took her sons to a state-run restaurant for a lavish meal. She had never eaten at a state-run restaurant since marrying Ye Xingguo, and this meal marked the end of her previous life.
After the three of them had their fill, Li Xiumei went to a courtyard. She knocked on the door, leaving her two sons outside, and went in. A short, dark man with a beaming smile soon emerged.
"Go find a cart and haul away all my belongings."
"Xiumei, don't worry, I'll make sure to clear everything out cleanly."
Li Xiumei's eyes were calm, as if nothing could disturb her anymore.
Ye Tianlong and Ye Tianhu, standing beside her, followed quietly, knowing that their mother would never harm them.
And so, without divorcing Ye Xingguo, Li Xiumei found herself a new partner, waiting for the day Ye Xingguo would meet his end.
From now on, she would be a person living entirely for herself. Her maternal family was unreliable, her husband was unreliable, let alone her children. She only wanted to live well for herself.
Ye Shengge was unaware of all these events, but someone would inform her. Luo Hansheng's brother had been keeping an eye on these people, and she hoped that the original owner would find some solace knowing the fate of these individuals.
The young man with glasses continued to write, his pen moving tirelessly. He listened to Secretary Ouyang's report.
"The Ye Xingguo household has essentially fallen apart. I wonder if that Madam Ye will go looking for trouble with Ye Shengge."
The pen in the young man's hand paused for a moment, then resumed writing. His tone was calm.
"Then ensure she doesn't get the chance to cause trouble."
