Chapter 588: Chapter 588: Grandmother, You’ve Taken It Too Far Chapter 588: Chapter 588: Grandmother, You’ve Taken It Too Far Shu Yu lagged a step as she entered, and just as she reached the living room, she saw Aunt Zhang staring at her with a look of curiosity.
Although her daughter had already told her, Aunt Zhang wanted to confirm it herself. She pulled Shu Yu over and whispered, “Just now, Pingning accidentally overheard your conversation with that concubine, Mrs. Xue. She said you’re not the daughter of the Shu family?”
Shu Yu glanced at Pingning and nodded slowly, “Yes, I was bought by Mrs. Xue from someone else.”
“Then, have you ever thought about finding your biological parents?”
Shu Yu felt it was strange that Aunt Zhang cared so much about her origins.
Suddenly she remembered Meng Yunzheng telling her that the old lady and the others would come over today. Could it be related to this?
Shu Yu was a bit curious about where the old lady and the others were at the moment, but she said, “I don’t know where my biological parents are. Mrs. Xue said when she bought me, her intention was not to have any further involvement with my previous family. So she doesn’t even know who the seller was. Originally she wanted to have a son to strengthen her status, but to her surprise, the seller didn’t have any boys, so they sent me instead, deceiving her.”
The Zhang family members suddenly understood.
Shu Yu sighed, “So I also don’t know where my biological parents are.”
“Here, here.” The old lady couldn’t hold back anymore and without another word pushed open the door and ran out.
The Zhang family members were taken aback for a moment, then saw the old lady rushing over, grabbing Shu Yu’s hand, and hugging her with a look of excitement, starting to wail loudly as if she could faint at any moment.
Astonished, Shu Yu almost blurted out a call to her.
Aunt Zhang hurried over, steadying the old lady’s hand and spoke, “Take it easy, Auntie. Calm down, don’t get too excited. Are you sure Miss Shu Yu is your Erya?”
The old lady wiped away her tears and scrutinized Shu Yu’s face closely, saying, “Yes, it must be her. She looks exactly like my late mother-in-law when she was young, too much alike. I was watching from inside the room and almost thought my mother-in-law had come back to life.”
Shu Yu, “…” Grandmother, the act is overdone.
What about your mother-in-law when she was young? You’re probably never seen your own grandmother.
Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhang no longer had any doubts. It was just too coincidental.
As a witness, however, she felt it was necessary to check carefully, so she asked, “Auntie, does your Erya have any marks on her body that could serve as proof?”
“Yes, yes, yes,” said the old lady, mentioning two specific marks. Aunt Zhang and Pingning took Shu Yu inside the room to check, and indeed, it was exactly as the old lady had described.
This confirmed matters once and for all. The old lady, along with Sanya and Dahu, all came over to hug her, crying and laughing in a scene that was somewhat out of control for a moment.
Even Zhao Xi, with his remarkable acting skills, stood to one side choking up and saying, “It’s good you’ve been found, good you’ve been found.”
Shu Yu felt that if she remained too detached, it would seem somewhat out of place.
After all, even the Zhang family members had their eyes reddened by this rare reunion.
So after being dumbfounded for a moment, Shu Yu put on an act, tears falling in a second, sobbing with overwhelming emotion.
Both parties held each other, not wanting to let go, until Aunt Zhang was the first to come to her senses, wiped away her tears and said, “Alright, alright. The family is reunited, and this is a joyous occasion indeed. Let’s all stop crying and sit down for a good chat, ah.”
