Chapter 53 Chapter 53 The Invisible Daughter
The Su family was suddenly in chaos. The girl who married my uncle was the daughter of a family friend. Her surname was Ma. I heard that she used to do some special business in the north. Later, due to the war, life was difficult, so the family was divided into three groups, one going west, one going north, and one going south.
The branch that his uncle was arranging a marriage for was the one heading south. Su Yun had heard his uncle say that he fell in love with the daughter of the Ma family at first sight, as if they had been together in their previous life, so they quickly fell in love and discussed the marriage between the two parties.
Moreover, discussing the marriage with the Ma family went very smoothly. My uncle and Miss Ma got along very well. They complemented each other in every way and their values were particularly similar. They were simply a match made in heaven.
But now, the person is gone, and even everyone’s impression of him is a little vague. Everyone is trying to find him. After arranging the first wave of people to look for him, they suddenly discovered that the photos were missing.
But Su's father said that he couldn't use the photos for the time being. The time was so short, what if he just missed it?
It's very strange to show off the photo and announce the disappearance everywhere.
So the uncle notified the Ma family first and asked if they had met each other, but the Ma family said no. Everyone knew that the uncle and Miss Ma were going to look at wedding dresses today, and it was also a date for the young couple, so no one would disturb them at this time.
It's just been a while since they last met. The Ma family's reaction is the same as the Su family's. There are so many wedding dresses in the bridal shop, maybe they just didn't see it for a while?
The uncle couldn't sit still and wanted to go out to look for her, but was stopped by Su's father, who said that he was distracted and would definitely have an accident on the way. If the bride was fine when he came back, but he was in trouble, what would happen to the bride?
With Su's father in charge, the house soon became quiet again. Everyone else went to work, leaving only the anxious uncle and Su Yun, who had nothing to do, in the living room.
Su Yun sat next to his uncle and comforted him, "Uncle, Auntie will be back soon."
My uncle forced himself to smile, but didn't say anything.
The two were silent for a while, and Su Yun asked again: "Uncle, is Auntie very beautiful?"
"Of course—" the uncle answered subconsciously, then felt something was wrong, "Why do you ask this suddenly?"
Su Yun smiled embarrassedly: "I don't seem to remember what my aunt looks like. Uncle, do you have a photo?"
At that time, there were already mobile phones that could take pictures. Families like the Su family would not let their children use inferior mobile phones with complete functions. The uncle took out his mobile phone and wanted to show Su Yun the photos, but he found that the phone was out of battery because he had been making calls all the time.
The uncle asked Su Yun to wait a moment while he charged his mobile phone and prepared to change the camera. Su Yun was waiting downstairs when he suddenly heard his uncle's scream.
When the housekeeper heard the sound, he hurried over, and Su Yun also followed over in confusion.
When I arrived at my uncle's room, I found him kneeling in the living room, collapsed and screaming.
Su Yun did not dare to go in. He stood at the door and carefully poked his head out. The housekeeper anxiously tried to help his uncle, but his uncle raised his trembling hand and pointed to the wall.
The housekeeper and Su Yun looked up at the same time, but didn't find anything wrong for a moment.
"There's nothing on the wall, young man. What's wrong with you?" the butler asked in confusion and concern.
The uncle shook his head: "No, no...that's not Wei Ming's face!"
The housekeeper was confused. He looked at the photos hanging on the wall, then at his devastated uncle, and said awkwardly, "There's nothing wrong with this. Isn't that what Miss Ma looks like?"
However, my uncle just kept saying, "No, no, no—"
Su Yun walked closer and looked carefully at the photos on the wall.
It was this close proximity that made the uncle notice it. He pushed the housekeeper aside, rushed over and picked up Su Yun, and tried to suppress his tone and said, "Yunyun, children don't lie. You have seen your aunt. Tell your uncle that the woman in the photo on the wall is not your aunt, right?"
The butler stood aside, frowning slightly.
At that time, Su Yun did not notice that the butler did not protect her. Later, when the roles were reversed, Su Yun remembered that many times the butler should have come to persuade her, but the butler did not move.
Firstly, Su Yun is not the biological child of the Su family and will have to be returned in the future; secondly, the housekeeper probably feels that children of Su Yun's status are not right.
People fear unlucky stars and like lucky stars, but they also feel that it will be unlucky if the lucky star has its fortune sucked away.
Su Yun was young at that time and didn't know how to speak tactfully. She answered honestly: "The photo is not well printed. I can't see Aunt's face clearly except for you, Uncle."
Hearing this, the uncle took two steps back in shock: "I can't see clearly... Just now you said that you forgot her face and asked me for a photo... So, you never see her face clearly, right?"
This sentence was a bit long. Su Yun tilted his head and thought for a while before he understood it. He replied, "It seems so."
The uncle collapsed and screamed, and started smashing things in the room. Su Yun didn't understand and was afraid of getting splashed, so he retreated out of the door.
The housekeeper was afraid that her uncle would hurt her, so she hurried to stop him and said to Su Yun, "Miss, go call your husband and wife and tell them that something happened at home again!"
Su's father and mother, who had just left for a while, were called back. Faced with their crazy younger brother, they were both confused.
Until the housekeeper found an opportunity to tell the whole story, and implied that it was Su Yun's nonsense that caused it.
In fact, no one in the Su family likes Su Yun, but Su's father and mother know Su Yun's role. Compared with the dislike of other people, they are more indifferent to objects and naturally will not be affected by emotions.
Without any emotions at work, Su's father quickly figured out that Su Yun's physique allowed her to see the essence of things earlier, but she was too young and had not deliberately studied in this area, so she never understood.
As a well-educated daughter, Su Yun would not deliberately tell the story to embarrass the person involved.
Su's father gave Su's mother a look, and Su's mother immediately took Su Yun to the small study.
The small study was very quiet. That was where Su's mother usually worked, and the children were not allowed to go in.
Su Yun, who had been wanting to come in and take a look, was curiously observing the things around him. Su's mother pulled him to sit on the sofa and asked, "Yunyun, you can't see Miss Ma's face, right? What exactly is it that you can't see clearly? No face, no facial features, or something else?"
Su Yun thought about it and replied, "It's like looking through water. It's blurry. If you wipe off the water, maybe you can see it clearly."
Adults usually find children's words strange. For example, Wu Yu didn't understand: "So what is it like?"
"Have you ever seen a horror movie? The effect of putting a water wave-like blur filter on a person's face is what I saw." Su Yun used a scene from a horror movie he had seen before as an example, but he didn't know whether that scene was the result of blurring or special effects.
Wu Yu thought about it for a moment, and suddenly his hair stood on end: "No way? Aren't you afraid of seeing a face like that? If I had seen it when I was a kid, I would have screamed and couldn't sleep all night."
Su Yun pondered for a while, and suddenly chuckled: "When you say that, it suddenly occurred to me that when I was a child, I saw many people who were not their original appearance, but because they were like that since childhood, I got used to it."
"Is it true? What about me? What did I look like in your eyes when I was a child?" Wu Yu asked excitedly, pointing at himself.
"You and your brother have lived a smooth life for half of your life, so of course there is no problem. I don't remember very clearly about your childhood, but do you still remember those childhood friends who had a miserable life? Their faces are a bit strange." Su Yun had never noticed it before, but now that it was mentioned, he remembered that the fate of some people has already been written on their faces.
Wu Yu and Su Yun grew up together, and they knew each other very well who the other knew, but the first person they thought of was Mo Qingtao, whom they had talked about before.
In Wu Yu's heart, the most miserable person in the world was his aunt, and the second was Mo Qingtao. Their lives were too horrible, so he asked, "So, what did Mo Qingtao look like when you saw her? You clearly remember her face."
Su Yun smiled helplessly: "It's not that I can't see the faces of every strange person, it's just that their features are different. Do you know why I don't play with Mo Qingtao? Because when I saw her, her face was pink, peach blossom pink."
Wu Yu was shocked: "Ah? Just because of this? It's just pink. Many girls have pink faces. How cute?"
"It's not the kind of natural pink," Su Yun couldn't explain it to a straight man, so he turned his head to look for the ghost bride, "Xinxin, put on some makeup and show Mr. Wu what scary pink is."
The ghost bride said "oh", put down the cakes, clapped her hands and walked to the table. Wu Yu knew that they were not human. The ghost bride turned around generously and used magic to replace her former phoenix crown and bridal robe. The bright red makeup on her face made her originally cute face look like peach blossoms in March.
Wu Yu was not afraid of the funeral home staff. After seeing it, she applauded: "So beautiful!"
Su Yun said, "Two more shades of red."
The ghost bride was stunned and dropped her sleeves: "Ah? Director, that's ugly. I'll be as red as the monkey Pigu! Xinxin doesn't want that."
After listening, Wu Yu's applause slowly stopped: "So, is Mo Qingtao's face that red when you saw her?"
Su Yun said unhappily, "Yeah, I didn't know it was my physical condition that was the problem. She was so famous, and I thought there might be something wrong with her body. If she suddenly fell to the ground while fighting with me, I wouldn't be able to explain it even if I had eighteen mouths."
Wu Yu thought of Su Yun's usual arrogant attitude, which really stimulated a timid child like Mo Qingtao: "That makes sense, go on."
"Later, my uncle continued to go crazy and made trouble at the Ma family..." Su Yun showed a look of reminiscence.
He was indeed too young at that time. Su Yun only remembered that after he described everything to his mother, he was taken to his room and told not to go out and to go to bed early if there was nothing else.
But Su Yun was not such an obedient child. She ran out from the side door and hid in the corner of the railing of the main building to peek.
The younger uncle didn't believe it and wanted to confront the Ma family. He insisted that the person he had been in love with these days was not the one in the photo, and even their faces were different.
Su's father could not hold back any longer, and after hearing what Su's mother said secretly, he was already very dependent on Master Ziyuan at this time. He immediately wanted to ask Master Ziyuan to deal with it. As a result, the master that Su's father mentioned could not be contacted at that time, so Su's father went to find his father, who was Su Yun's nominal grandfather.
The old man said at the time that his family would admit their mistakes, but the Ma family would never do so. If there were any questions, wouldn’t it be better to ask the Ma family?
If someone replaces Miss Ma to deceive the young master of the Su family, the two families can just join forces to deal with that person.
An hour later, someone from the Ma family came with photos and some documents that they did not carry with them. The women in the photos were exactly the same as those in my uncle's room.
In other words, the person has never changed, it's my uncle's own problem.
In this case, we can only consult a doctor.
Su Yun always remembered his uncle's screams and struggles, saying that there was nothing wrong with him, that the wife he knew was not the one in the photo, and that there was something wrong with the Ma family, and that they had hidden the person.
However, Su's father took out his uncle's charging mobile phone and opened it, and the photos inside were the same as those provided by the Ma family.
My uncle completely collapsed. He couldn't understand why such a thing happened in just one day. He was only one month away from happiness. What went wrong?
The Ma family was satisfied with this marriage, and it was the result of the free love between the children of both sides. This meant that the two families could cooperate for a long time in the future without having to worry about backstabbing.
As a result, before the wedding even started, the bride suddenly disappeared, the groom started to go crazy, and problems arose everywhere. The Ma family found it very strange.
After leaving the Su family, the Ma family followed the recommendations of relatives and friends and went to see several masters. They said some specious things but did not solve the problem.
At this time, Miss Ma had been missing for three days and calling the police had yielded no results. The police suspected that she was abducted by human traffickers, but it was impossible for the bridal shop that the Su and Ma families could go to to cooperate with human traffickers. Even if there were, wouldn’t it be courting death to kidnap the children of the Su and Ma families?
The Ma family, who were almost going crazy looking for people, were recommended Ji Weitang and Su Yiling at this time, saying that these two new masters had very high cost-effectiveness.
The Ma family almost blasted the recommender away. How could anyone recommend a master by saying that he was cost-effective? Shouldn't he say that he was reliable?
The friend who recommended the treatment had to persuade the Ma family to agree to meet the couple. After all, the cost-effectiveness was really good, and if it didn’t work, the couple would not charge any money.
The Ma family agreed to try their luck. Considering that a girl was missing, Ji Weitang was the one who made the main calculations. She went to the girl's room and looked around and said, "Do you have two daughters?"
Miss Ma's mother's eyes were red: "Yes, but the eldest sister is an adopted daughter, and my missing daughter is the youngest daughter."
Ji Weitang turned around: "That's not what I'm asking. When you gave birth to your little daughter, were they twins?"
Mr. Ma was already impatient at this point. He cursed, "Can you even calculate? You can't even calculate how many daughters I have. Are you trying to cheat me out of money?"
"Haven't you noticed that everything in your daughter's room is in duplicate?" Ji Weitang asked doubtfully.
Miss Ma's parents were stunned. They walked into the room and looked around. Mr. Ma said directly: "What's so strange about this? It's normal for little girls to have some quirks."
Ji Weitang raised an eyebrow and opened the box on the dressing table, which was filled with red amulets: "The amulet you gave her was also a double?"
As soon as the box was opened, the amulets inside spilled out, and red silk threads and cloth strips hung down like blood.
Seeing this, Miss Ma's mother paused, then she slowly walked to the table, slowly searched for the amulets inside, and finally picked one out. She said to Ji Weitang tremblingly: "This is the only one... I gave it to you..."
Father Ma rushed over, took a closer look at the amulet, and said with an unpleasant expression: "This is what our family prayed for when we went to burn the first incense stick. Each family member... only has one."
The bright red on the table should have been festive, but at this moment it looked sinister. The amulet that was recognized had the names of the family members written on the back, with a little bit of black ink seeping through, so it could be seen that the other amulets were all red.
Ji Weitang checked the amulet and returned it to the Ma family's parents: "The problem is not with the amulet. I just felt that you would lose face if I lied. Because according to the horoscope, you have two daughters. Since you only gave birth to one, I can boldly guess that the other daughter only has a soul but no body."
"Isn't that a ghost?" Miss Ma's mother exclaimed subconsciously.
"...You can understand it that way." Ji Weitang said after a moment of silence.
Miss Ma's mother almost fainted. No one could accept that they had a ghost child, and that the child shared a body with their own biological child. To put it bluntly, it was like a ghost possessed them.
After seeing the situation of the Ma family, Ji Weitang still couldn't understand why Miss Ma disappeared and why the ghost came to the Ma family. Looking at Miss Ma's face, she didn't seem like the kind of person who would encounter such a thing.
There was nothing more to deduce in the room, so Ji Weitang chose to go downstairs and prepare to meet Su Yiling, who was looking at the feng shui of the whole house. When going downstairs, she stood a little higher and noticed the layout of the whole house.
When I first came in, I felt embarrassed to look around. Ji Weitang thought that this family lived a very fresh and simple life. Many places were decorated very beautifully, with flowers.
When she stood up higher, she realized that this room looked like a newly decorated banquet hall, or a wedding venue.
There is no "happiness" in a Western wedding, and Ji Weitang doesn't know much about Western things, so she carefully asked Miss Ma's mother, "Can I ask, is your family going to have a wedding?"
After the amulet incident, the Ma couple believed it a little, but they were very confused. Why did Ji Weitang seem to know nothing? She had clearly seen Miss Ma's photo, so could she not read the face?
Miss Ma’s mother said, “Yes, didn’t the middleman tell you? My daughter went missing with her boyfriend a few days ago when she was looking at wedding dresses. There was less than a month left before the wedding, but something like this happened…”
Ji Weitang suddenly realized: "Oh, so that's how it is. I'm sorry, Mrs. Ma, the middleman only told me and my husband to come and look for my daughter. I thought she was missing. Besides, your daughter's wedding is not in a month. Now it seems that the reason for your daughter's disappearance should be found from the man."
After hearing this, the Ma family couple was stunned. Ma's father clapped his hands suddenly and said, "I said it was that boy's fault! That boy is unlucky for his wife! He has mental problems! Not only did he make our daughter disappear, he also said he didn't recognize our daughter. What a bastard!"
"Uh... Is there a possibility that he really doesn't recognize the daughter you gave birth to? The one he knows is your other daughter." Ji Weitang reminded in a low voice.
