“My daughter, Sisi, has a birthmark that looks like a flame under her left armpit.”
Even though Qiao Lian'er had already anticipated it, at this moment she felt that the thunderous roar was clear and concrete, causing her to freeze in her thoughts.
The appearance, age, and birthmark all match, so what more is there to say?
"Yes, there's a birthmark under his left armpit." Old Madam Chu smiled. "When Wei Chi returns, we'll tell him about it."
“Miss Gao, please don’t worry about it. You already have a lot of tasks to do, and you’re also trying to find people for us. It’s too tiring.”
"Wei Chi is also tired."
“He’s different, he’s my nephew—” Then, feeling that she shouldn’t say that, Old Madam Chu changed her words and said, “He’s a man, so he’s more resilient to hardship.”
"In the end, I feel sorry for you."
Gao Shuying said firmly, "Auntie, when looking for a girl, we need to ask about her physical characteristics. A man is not suitable. Now that we have found her, please let me finish my search and do my best to fulfill my last wish."
The two elders thought about it and agreed, so they didn't say anything more.
Miss Gao's affection for them was simply a matter of loving the house because of the owner; she was willing to go to such lengths.
Wei Chi is such a lucky child.
"Of course, so many years have passed, and things have changed a lot, so you should be mentally prepared," Gao Shuying added.
How could the two elders not understand what she meant? Perhaps their daughter had died in the freezing cold from the very beginning. You know, it was the dead of winter when Sisi was taken away.
“We have the portrait, and we remember the birthmark. We know that if we can’t find it, then it’s really gone. We will completely let go of this matter and live a good life.”
Although Master Chu said this, his face was full of anticipation.
I wonder how heartbroken he will be if the final result is not what he hoped for.
When it was time to say goodbye, Old Madam Chu called out.
"Lian'er, come here."
Qiao Lian'er approached Old Madam Chu: "Grandma Chu, is there anything else you want to say?"
Now, facing the two elderly people, her feelings are different.
These are her beloved maternal grandparents. She should be enjoying their company, but because of Qiao Yunni's arduous life, they have been forcibly separated.
But blood is thicker than water. Although she had never met them before, seeing their kind faces before her, she felt a surge of emotion welling up inside her.
"The lucky bag you sent is very nice. It would be impolite not to reciprocate. Since it's our first time meeting, I'd also like to give you a gift."
As she spoke, Old Madam Chu took off the jade bracelet from her wrist, then reached out and took Qiao Lian'er's hand, putting the bracelet on her wrist.
“This bracelet has been with me for many years. It was part of my dowry from my family. Although I can’t see very well, I feel that you are someone I have a connection with and feel an inexplicable sense of closeness to.”
Qiao Lian'er looked at the bracelet; it was made of high-grade ice with floating flowers, and its surface was shimmering with watery luster. After being touched day after day, it became even smoother and more translucent.
It's worth at least two thousand taels.
"Grandma Chu, this is too valuable, I can't accept it." After seeing it clearly, Qiao Lian'er was about to take it off.
Old Master Chu's career has been unsuccessful in recent years, and his official position has been demoted. It would be great if he had something valuable to rely on, but he wants to give it to her.
But Old Madam Chu held her hand and said, "Girl, don't be so polite with your grandma. I've thought this through carefully before giving it to you. I only have one wish, and I hope you can grant it."
Qiao Lian'er's eyes were a little moist: "Grandma Chu, please tell me."
"Grandma hopes that you can come and visit us when you have time. I have never liked a child so much before."
“Your home is in Qingshui Town, Ning County, which is hundreds of miles away from here. My request is a bit difficult for you. I don’t expect you to come often. Visiting once a year would be fine, or even once every two or three years.”
As she spoke, Old Madam Chu lowered her voice.
