Chapter 223 Luo Meiting's Request

Luo Meiting nodded embarrassedly.

Su Yue smiled and said, "No need to save it. I can make it for them if they want to eat it."

Luo Meiting grinned: "Oh, that's good."

"What are you two talking about? It's time for dinner."

Luo Dinghai roared, and seeing the table full of delicious food, he couldn't wait.

There were only five of them having dinner today, so there was no distinction between tables for men and women, and everyone ate together.

Five people sat down at the table and started eating.

Luo Dinghai picked up a piece of seafood and nodded as he ate it: "It's delicious. I haven't eaten seafood in many years. I didn't expect that today, thanks to you, I will be able to enjoy a feast."

Su Yue: "Uncle Luo, if you want to eat, just let us know and we'll make sure you're full."

Luo Dinghai nodded while eating: "You're welcome then."

Su Yue: "Don't be polite, we are all family."

Luo Dinghai seemed to have thought of something and said, "Oh, by the way, when my in-laws came before, I forgot to ask them. After your eldest brother and Mei Ting get married, they will probably have to stay in the village for a while. Is that okay?"

"That's no problem. Dad and Mom won't have any objections to where Big Brother and the others live."

Su Yue just thought that after her elder brother and his wife got married, Luo Dinghai and his wife were reluctant to part with their daughter.

When Luo Dinghai and his wife heard what Su Yue said, they were obviously relieved.

They have only one daughter and they really hope that she will stay with them and enjoy family happiness for some time.

They knew that if they returned to Beijing, their daughter would definitely go back to the Su family, and then they would be left alone, lonely and desolate.

In fact, they had another son, but he was kidnapped by a beggar on the way to exile. Given the circumstances at the time, they were not allowed to look for him.

Not to mention missing persons on the road of exile, even if people died on the spot, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Seeing her parents like that, Luo Meiting knew that they were thinking about their missing brother again. She looked up at Su Yue and mustered up the courage to ask her, "Sister Su Yue, after dinner, I have something to tell you, is that okay?"

Su Yue thought Luo Meiting wanted to ask about some matters between her daughter's family, so she smiled and said, "Of course no problem, we are not in a hurry to leave."

Mrs. Luo sighed occasionally during the meal, but everyone still enjoyed it very much.

After dinner, the three women went to the kitchen to wash the dishes and clean up.

Luo Dinghai directly pulled Murong Li to his study to discuss something.

After Su Yue and the other two finished cleaning the kitchen, Luo Meiting pulled her into her boudoir.

It was Su Yue's first time entering Luo Meiting's boudoir. It gave her the feeling that it was clean, tidy, simple and clear, and also filled with the warmth of a girl's home.

I didn’t expect that this woman who usually seems carefree can also have the feelings of a little girl.

"Sit down, girl."

Luo Meiting asked Su Yue to sit down and personally made a cup of tea for her.

She also sat opposite Su Yue and said embarrassedly: "Actually, I called you here because I have something to ask of you."

Su Yue took a sip of tea. The tea was quite good, with a refreshing fragrance.

After hearing what Luo Meiting said, she looked up, nodded at her and said, "Sister Meiting, there's no need to be so formal. We're almost a family now. Just tell me if there's anything you need, and we'll do our best to help as long as it's within our capabilities."

Luo Meiting exhaled, suppressed her smile, and said with a somewhat sad expression, "It's like this. I originally had a brother, but he was kidnapped by a beggar on the way to exile. I mean, you are freer than us. If you can help us find out about him, we will be very grateful."

My parents often shed tears because of my brother's affairs, especially my mother, who feels sad just watching them.

Moreover, her brother was very good to her, and she also wanted to find her brother. If he was still alive, he would be old enough to get married and have children.

"Is that so? Sister Meiting, don't be sad. Tell me if your brother had any evidence or any particularly obvious marks on him at the time?"

Su Yue was quite surprised. She thought Luo Dinghai only had a daughter, but it turned out he also had a son.

I thought Luo Dinghai said that his elder brother and his family stayed in Yunwu Village after getting married because he couldn't bear to leave his daughter. Another reason was that prisoners in Yunwu Village were not allowed to leave Yunwu Town. If they wanted to leave the town, they had to apply to the county government and get approval before they could leave the town. However, they could not leave Yunwu County and had to return on the same day.

In fact, with their relationship, it is possible for the Luo family to go to Northwest City, and County Magistrate Cao will turn a blind eye.

Luo Meiting thought for a moment and said, "We lost everything at the time, but I remember my brother had a little finger-sized scar under his chin. It was from when he accidentally fell from a tree when he was little, and it's been there ever since. He also looks a lot like my father. If he were still alive, we would probably recognize him the first time we saw him. Also, my brother was about ten years old when he disappeared, so he has memories of it."

Su Yue nodded, remembering what Luo Meiting said, and asked, "Did your brother know that you were exiled to Yunwu Village at that time?"

According to what Luo Meiting said, a ten-year-old child must have memories. If he knew that he was exiled to Yunwu Village and he was still alive, he would probably come to look for him. However, he has not come to look for him for so many years, which means that it is unlikely that he is still alive.

After all, Northwest County had been suffering from a drought for so long, and it was possible that he had died in that disaster.

If he is still alive, he is either not in Northwest County at all, or in a surrounding county town, or in a place so far away that he is unable to find him.

Generally speaking, beggars will not sell people to nearby places, but there are exceptions to everything.

So if you really want to look for it, the chances of finding it are very small.

This place is not like the end of the world. Everyone has an ID card and everyone uses a mobile phone. No matter what they do, they use face or fingerprint recognition. Unless the missing person is dead, there will be traces left behind, so they can be found.

In this age where transportation relies on walking and information relies on shouting, Su Yue has no hope of finding a child who has been missing for more than ten years, but she will not verbally discourage them.

Luo Meiting nodded: "I know this. It is because he knows that we don't hold out much hope. If he is still alive, given my brother's personality, he will definitely come looking for us. Many years have passed, and I haven't seen my brother come looking for us."

They were prisoners exiled here and could not leave Yunwu Town freely. They had no way to go out to look for their brother, so they just waited for the day when their brother would come to find him on his own. However, more than ten years passed in a flash and no one came to look for him.
