Under such circumstances, none of the villagers would stand up for Ye Chien. Even though the villagers were down-to-earth and narrow-minded and did not stir up trouble, in the face of Sun Dongqing's scolding and beating of Ye Chien, they believed that as long as Ye Chien had food to eat, a place to stay, and a place to go to school, that would be enough. It was normal for them to be scolded and beaten for being naughty.
Faced with Ye Chien's tragic past, Xia Jinyuan clenched his fists several times before he asked in a low and hoarse voice, "Did Ye Zhifan ever scold or beat Ye Chien?"
"No, it was always Sun Dongqing who stepped in, so it was not convenient for Uncle Gen to stand up for Ye Chien sometimes. When he saw that she was unwilling to come back, he just assumed that Ye Chien was doing well, so he gave up on bringing her back. "
Principal Chen sighed as he talked about Ye Chien's childhood. "It wasn't until the second day of Chinese New Year that Ye Chien came to her senses and resolutely left the Ye family to look for Uncle Gen. You know what happened after that. That was when Ye Chien's bitter days finally came to an end.
"As for her past, if Uncle Gen hadn't asked about it, I wouldn't have known that she was living such a bitter life. Uncle Gen blamed himself and kept telling me that he blamed himself for not persevering and leaving the child in a wolf's den. "
After hearing about Ye Chien's childhood, Xia Jinyuan, whose eyes were slightly red, was silent for a long time before he said in a hoarse voice, "Ye Chien almost froze to death outside in the fourth or fifth year of Chinese New Year. What was the cause?"
"On the eve of Chinese New Year, Ye Chien did something wrong and angered Old Madam Ye's one-eyed son-in-law, Sun Yaozu, who kicked him. Old Madam Ye also thought that Ye Chien was a jinx to her and was an unlucky person, so she ordered Sun Yaozu to throw Ye Chien, who was pretending to be unconscious, to the edge of the field. "
Just like that, Sun Yaozu's name was engraved in Xia Jinyuan's heart. He would settle the score with him and Old Madam Ye!
Life had given his little fox so many trials and tribulations, but she had never bowed her head and admitted defeat. Once she woke up, it was as if she had been reborn from the ashes. No matter how difficult the road ahead was, she had persevered and walked on with gratitude.
Principal Chen told Xia Jinyuan everything he knew. Xia Jinyuan not only felt distressed, but also found all kinds of suspicious points while digesting all the past events.
Ye Zhifan never hit or scolded Ye Chien. He never asked Ye Chien what trouble he got into or what lies he told. He also never cared about Ye Chien's studies. Even when Sun Dongqing hit or scolded Ye Chien, he didn't ask.
It wasn't until the incident on the second day of Chinese New Year when Ye Chien was forced to drop out of school that Ye Zhifan stood up for the first time. He said that Ye Chien got into trouble because of him as her uncle. In order to prevent her from continuing to affect the school, he asked Ye Chien to drop out of school and go home.
This was the only time Ye Zhifan came to school for Ye Chien. It was for no other reason than to ask Ye Chien to drop out of school.
After connecting the previous analysis with Ye Chien's childhood, Xia Jinyuan's eyes turned cold. He said in a low voice, "Ye Zhifan didn't get involved in Ye Chien's matters because he wanted to protect himself. If anything happened, he could push all the blame to Sun Dongqing."
"The incident on the second day of Chinese New Year made Ye Zhifan think that the time was right. He could directly ruin Ye Chien's studies and make her drop out of school because of her reputation. As the mayor, he didn't use his power for personal gain, which showed that he was a fair person!"
"Uncle Chen, you still have to hide our conversation from Ye Chien. I need to investigate a few more things. I'll let you know if I have any leads. "
