Hearing this, Shen Anan was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered this matter, so she quickly said: "Shen Xiuxiu! Do you know about Shen Xiuxiu's matter?"
When Uncle Shen heard the name Shen Xiuxiu, a light seemed to light up in his eyes. He moved forward eagerly: "Hey, little girl, are you asking about Xiuxiu? Is there any news about her?"
Shen Anan quickly waved his hand and said, "No, sir, I'm just asking around. Someone asked me about her before..."
Hearing this, the expectation on Grandpa Shen's face dimmed. He sighed and shook his head: "That girl is my granddaughter. She was supposed to get married, but she ran away on the wedding day. Not only did she take all the money in the family, she also took away the betrothal money. There has been no news since then."
Shen Anan didn't expect that he was the person she was looking for, and she didn't expect Shen Xiuxiu to do this. Looking at Uncle Shen, her eyes were full of sympathy.
"Uncle, this must be very difficult for you two elders to accept."
"Alas, this is fate. Little girl, if you see that girl, can you help me persuade her and let her live a good life?"
Uncle Shen waved his hands, with a hint of helplessness in his voice.
"Um!"
Shen Anan nodded heavily. She looked at Uncle Shen and felt bad.
The person in front of her was her own grandfather, but she didn't know how to start the conversation.
Looking at the lives of the two elderly people, I am afraid that Shen Xiuxiu really took away all the money in this family. Otherwise, according to the habits of the villagers, they would not even raise a chicken...
After a long silence, she sighed, "Uncle Shen, don't worry. If I see Shen Xiuxiu, I will definitely help you persuade her."
It was getting late, so she planned to go to the village entrance to take a three-wheeled motorcycle, as there would be no more cars if she was late.
Standing at the entrance of Wangjiazhuang Village, Shen Anan looked at the faces of Uncle Shen and his wife, both of which were full of traces of time, and felt conflicted, not knowing whether he should break this layer of window paper.
After thinking about it for a while, she still felt that this matter needed to be handled with caution and she needed to think about it carefully.
The old couple had already suffered the trauma of Shen Xiuxiu running away with the money. She was afraid that if she told them that Shen Xiuxiu was not their biological granddaughter, the old couple would be scared. In short, she had to take it slow.
Moreover, this time she came mainly to inquire about her biological parents, and she was not in a hurry to recognize them.
However, she still had to think of a reason, otherwise if she said casually that she was here to find her biological parents, the old couple would have to know all this.
"Uncle Shen, I came to Wangjiazhuang this time not only to find Xiaofang, but also for another matter. I want to do some business here. I'll come again tomorrow and we can have a good chat."
Uncle Shen's eyes lit up when he heard this. He nodded and smiled: "It's good that you want to do business. Uncle supports you. Come tomorrow and we will discuss it carefully."
He had no interest in business, he just liked the kid.
Shen Anan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the old man and his wife didn't doubt it.
Just then a three-wheeled motorcycle passed by and she quickly got on it.
Back at the guesthouse, Shen Anan lay directly on the bed.
Time passed little by little, and she stared at the ceiling, thinking all night about how she should solve this problem.
When I thought about the dawn, my head was a mess!
Covering her head with the quilt, she decided to go to Wangjiazhuang again in the afternoon, using the name of doing business to inquire about the news of her biological parents.
This matter needs to be done step by step, and there is no rush.
On the other side, just after daybreak, Grandpa Shen and his wife got up from the kang, put on their old clothes that had been washed so much that they looked white, and prepared to go to the fields to work. As they walked, they talked about what happened yesterday.
Grandpa Shen was holding a hoe in his hand and said as he walked: "Don't you think that Chen An'an from yesterday was more pleasing to our eyes than our granddaughter Xiuxiu?"
"Yes, that girl is so pitiful. When I look at her, I feel close to her. I can't tell why."
His wife nodded and agreed.
Grandpa Shen sighed, he stopped and looked into the distance: "You know, it would be great if this was our granddaughter, then we wouldn't end up like this when we grow old..."
After hearing this, his wife's eyes were a little red. She patted Uncle Shen's hand and said, "Alas, this is fate. Let's just work hard and stop thinking too much."
Uncle Shen nodded, and the two of them continued walking towards the field, both feeling a little uncomfortable.
When he arrived at the field, Uncle Shen waved his hoe and dug the ground again and again, as if he wanted to drive away all the depression in his heart with the hoe. My wife was pulling weeds nearby, and she was a skilled worker with quick movements.
While they were working, they chatted from time to time, and the topic always revolved around Shen Anan. They all thought the child was good, but it was a pity... he was not their own!
The sun slowly climbed overhead. Uncle Shen and his wife were tired after a whole morning and sat on the edge of the field to rest. Uncle Shen took out his broken pipe, lit a bowl of tobacco, took a deep breath, and the smoke lingered in the air.
"Old man, we don't know where our son and daughter-in-law have gone. There's not even a message from them."
My wife was holding a handful of weeds in her hand, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
Uncle Shen's face darkened when he heard this. He put down his pipe and said sternly, "Alright, don't mention them. We still have to live our lives. If you mention them, it will only cause trouble for us!"
The old partner wanted to say something, but seeing her husband's serious look, she knew that this was a problem for him, so she swallowed her words and nodded, "Well, I understand."
