Shu Yu’s actions not only stunned Old Lady Ruan and the others in the courtyard but also the villagers outside.
This young lady seemed to be the one who came to the Lu family yesterday. What was she doing? Was she going to interfere in the Lu family’s recognition of their daughter?
At this moment, the eldest son of the Lu family, Lu Dasong, had also been called back from the fields. When he saw the scene in the courtyard, he was quite stunned. He was listening to Third Lu’s explanation of the situation.
Shu Yu stood in the courtyard, frowning hard as she looked at the girl who was holding Madam Ruan’s arm, “Let go.”
The girl’s body trembled, but she still stiffed her neck and replied, “You, who are you? This is my mother, what right do you have to ask me to let go?”
“Because you’re a fake.”
A fake? As soon as these words came out, not only did Old Lady Ruan and the young lady’s expressions change drastically, but the villagers outside also began to whisper.
Shu Yu walked around Old Lady Ruan and walked step by step toward Madam Ruan and the young lady.
Arriving right in front of the two, Shu Yu’s gaze fell on the back of the girl’s thin hand that was holding onto Madam Ruan, and she reached out to pull the latter’s hand away.
“You…” The girl’s eyes widened. She was furious and wanted to fight with Shu Yu.
However, she quickly remembered her situation and suppressed her anger. She turned to look at Madam Ruan and plead pitifully, “Mother, who is she? How can she do this to me?”
Madam Ruan’s fingers trembled as she held the girl’s arm. Then. she looked at Shu Yu and opened her mouth, calling out in a hoarse voice, “…Miss Shu.”
Her expression was pleading and helpless. Shu Yu understood that it was not that Madam Ruan did not have any doubts in her heart. Rather, it was just as Lu Erbai had said, Madam Ruan was obsessed with finding Erya and thus couldn’t think straight.
She had an obsession in her heart. Even though she knew that the other party might be a fake, she still subconsciously wanted to believe that she was her daughter.
Without Lu Erbai and the old lady to wake her up, Madam Ruan had walked into her own fantasy and refused to come out.
Shu Yu looked at the girl. Because the latter was pulled back by Madam Ruan again, she lifted her chin at Shu Yu proudly.
Shu Yu’s eyes narrowed. This time, she wasn’t as gentle as before. She raised her hand and slashed.
“Ah…” The girl yelped in pain and quickly let go.
She was furious this time. Without a word, she reached her hand out and clawed at Shu Yu’s face with a ferocious face.
Madam Ruan was standing close to her and saw everything clearly. She subconsciously called out, “Miss Shu, be careful.”
Shu Yu tilted her head and dodged the girl’s attack. Then, she lifted her knee and hit the latter’s stomach. Just as the girl was bending over in pain, she kicked her legs, causing the other party to fall to the ground and be unable to get up.
“Wow,” The villagers outside the courtyard exclaimed, “Why are they suddenly fighting?”
Third Lu couldn’t help but touch his own leg. He had long since occupied the best position to watch the show, so naturally, he had seen Shu Yu’s series of actions.
Weren’t women’s fights full of tactics like poking the eyes, biting and clawing, pulling the hair, and curses? Yet, this girl’s movements were clean and practiced. She was clearly a martial arts practitioner.
Thank God he had been successfully threatened by his mother yesterday when he wanted to settle scores with Shu Yu last night. Otherwise, wouldn’t he be the one who would be beaten to the ground with two hits?
Lu Dasong, who was standing next to him, had already listened to what the latter had to say about the events and prepared to head in.
Although he did not usually interact with his second younger brother’s family, now that his mother and brother were not around, he could not just stand by on such a big matter as finding Erya.
