Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl Chapter 17

Chapter 17

All these years, Lu Erbai had been looking for his second daughter, whose whereabouts were unknown, and had broken his leg in the process. They had borrowed money from everyone they could, and at this point, even Lu Erbai’s brothers wouldn’t lend him money.

With a load off her mind, the old lady’s footsteps became lighter as she left in a short while.

Sanya also went out. Her elder brother, Dahu had not returned yet, so she had to go and look for him.

Shu Yu smiled and retracted her gaze. Then, she saw Madam Ruan looking at her with the same burning eyes as before.

Lu Erbai also noticed it. He couldn’t help but reach out and pull Madam Ruan. In a low voice, he said, “Honey, you should go and cook.”

Madam Ruan took a deep breath and ignored Lu Erbai. Instead, she asked Shu Yu, “Miss Shu, w-who else is in your family? Who are your parents? You’re so young, why did you come to Shangs.h.i.+ Village alone without anyone to accompany you?”

Lu Erbai’s eyes widened and his voice deepened, “Why are you asking this, honey? This is Miss Shu’s privacy, how can you ask about it?”

Madam Ruan ignored him and continued to ask Shu Yu, “Miss Shu, may I ask if you have two moles on your left arm? I…”

Lu Erbai gasped and scolded, “Honey, don’t say anymore.”

Madam Ruan suddenly covered her face and started crying. Lu Erbai didn’t know what to do.

He looked at Shu Yu awkwardly and said, “I’m sorry, Miss Shu. You… You know that I have a missing daughter and I’ve been looking for her all these years. You and Erya are about the same age, so she might have thought of Erya when she saw you, which is why she’s being so impolite. I’m very sorry.”

Then, he stood up with the help of his walking stick and pulled Madam Ruan with his other hand while saying, “Miss Shu, please sit here for a while. We’ll go to the kitchen to see what to make.”

Shu Yu nodded silently and watched the couple stagger out of the room, supporting each other.

She only heaved a sigh of relief when their figures disappeared.

If not for Lu Erbai’s interruption, she really wouldn’t have known how to answer.

Shu Yu rolled up her left sleeve. There were indeed two small black moles on her wrist.

She had yet to decide if she wanted to return to the Lu family. Although she already knew that the Lu family hadn’t abandoned her on purpose and had been looking for her all these years, to the point they were as poor as church mice, she still had to consider the plot of the book. Although she had nothing to do with the Shu family now, who knew if the designated ending of the book would affect her after she was exiled?

It was fine if she was alone, but what if she implicated the Lu family?

The Lu family had never appeared in the books, so G.o.d knows what their ending was like.

Just as Shu Yu was thinking about this, she suddenly heard Madam Ruan’s sorrowful cries.

She was stunned. The kitchen was on her left, and she could vaguely hear them talking.

Lu Erbai seemed to be consoling Madam Ruan, but the latter, who had always been timid and quiet, couldn’t help but say agitatedly, “I’m not possessed. You don’t know, brother Bai, you have no clue. Just now at the entrance of the courtyard, I saw Miss Shu holding Sanya’s hand. When I saw them turning around while smiling and talking, I thought I was looking at Daya talking to Sanya.”

Madam Ruan continued, “Brother Bai, didn’t you notice that Miss Shu and Daya look a little similar? Although… Although Daya is thinner, darker, and looks a little older… But think about it carefully, don’t Miss Shu’s nose and eyes look very similar to Daya’s?”
