Chapter 215 Fourth Aunt is here

Madam Liang glanced towards the courtyard, then mysteriously pulled Shu Yu aside and whispered, "Just now, your aunt came."

"My aunt?" Lu Sixing?

To be honest, she has been back for so many days, but she still hasn't seen this fourth aunt.

Madam Liang nodded. "Not long after you left, your aunt came over and started crying at the old lady as soon as she entered. She cried for a long time, and I don't know what happened, but it sounded quite serious. After your aunt left, your grandmother stayed in the room and didn't come out. There was no sound from inside, and I don't know how she is."

Shu Yu almost couldn't resist hitting her. "Then why are you sneaking around outside without going in to check?"

She pushed her aside and hurriedly walked into the yard.

Liang followed her into the room, explaining, "I was just afraid your grandmother would scold me. She loves to scold me."

Isn't that because you're unreliable? Just look at this situation and you'll see.

Shu Yu ignored her and strode towards the main room.

As soon as I entered, I saw the old lady sitting there, supporting her head with her hand, looking worried and distressed.

"Milk?" Shu Yu walked over, looked her over, and saw that apart from her pale complexion, she was fine, so she was slightly relieved.

The old lady was startled, looked up and saw Shu Yu and Liang Shi who came in after her, and suddenly came to her senses.

"It's so late?" She stood up. "I didn't even notice. Come on, I'll cook you a bowl of noodles."

She was about to leave after she finished speaking when Shu Yu pulled her back. "Grandma, what happened?"

The old lady smiled and said, "It's nothing, what could possibly be wrong with me? Nothing."

Shu Yu stared at her intently, her expression serious.

The old lady could speak sternly to everyone else, but she couldn't do that to Shuyu.

She looked at her clever and capable granddaughter in front of her, finally sighed, sat back in her chair, and said with a wry smile, "It's your fourth aunt. She just came by."

Shu Yu nodded. "Something happened to Fourth Aunt's family?"

The old lady hummed in agreement. "Your fourth aunt's husband has gone missing."

Missing?

Not only was Shu Yu surprised, but even Liang Shi, who was standing behind, widened her eyes and covered her mouth.

"What happened? What do you mean by 'missing'? When did you go missing?"

The old lady said, "Do you remember the day you met your relatives? Your fourth aunt and uncle originally said they would come, but they didn't. Later, they only sent someone to bring eggs over, did they?"

Shu Yu nodded, "I remember."

"Actually, your fourth aunt's husband had already left before the family reunion. Your fourth aunt said that a friend of his found him a good job, apparently delivering goods to some place, and the pay was quite high. Your fourth aunt's husband just separated from the family last year and wanted to start his own small business, but he didn't have enough capital, so he was thinking of saving up more money first. It's rare to have such a good opportunity, so of course he was tempted."

The old lady shook her head, her face full of sorrow. "The original plan was for you to come back the day before you met your relatives, so you could come to our house for a reunion dinner."

Shu Yu understood. "So he didn't come back that day?"

"Yes, he didn't come back the day before, and he didn't come back on the day after that. Your fourth aunt was uneasy and had no intention of going out." The old lady patted the table. "Your fourth aunt is the same. She didn't tell us about such a big thing. We didn't even know he hadn't come back these past few days."

"Why did Fourth Aunt come to see you today?"
