Chapter 292 Where is our daughter?
When Su Xiangbei returned home to catch up on sleep, Shao's parents received news they didn't want to believe.
"Dad, what are you saying? Ziyu, how could she not be my biological child?"
Mr. Shao looked at his father in disbelief. If he hadn't been certain that his father was perfectly lucid, he might have wondered if his father was getting senile.
“No mistake, Dad, how can you say that? Even if you are dissatisfied with Ziyu, you can’t…” Mrs. Shao’s lips trembled as she spoke with grief and indignation.
Grandpa Shao didn't argue with them. He simply placed the test results in front of them and said, "These are your blood type test results. You are both blood type A, but that bastard is blood type B. Therefore, she can't possibly be your child."
"This..." Mr. and Mrs. Shao looked at the test results handed over by Mr. Shao. Even if they were unwilling to admit it, the results of the scientific test were already in front of them.
"Where is our daughter? Dad, we really did have a daughter! Where is our daughter?" Mrs. Shao felt as if her heart was breaking.
She simply couldn't believe that Shao Ziyu, whom she had cherished and raised for over twenty years, was not her biological daughter.
"And then there's Shao Ziyu, how did she get into our house?"
Her daughter couldn't have simply vanished into thin air.
Shao Ziyu could not have replaced their daughter without a reason.
Therefore, there is only one possibility: their daughter was replaced by Shao Ziyu.
When did this happen?
Why didn't they notice anything?
After a long silence with a sorrowful expression, Mr. Shao suddenly spoke up: "If our daughter was really switched, it must have happened when she was only a few days old?"
Mrs. Shao was stunned for a moment, and said, "It was...you were on a mission, and I was in the hospital because of postpartum hemorrhage, and the nanny was taking care of our daughter?"
Mr. Shao said, "That's right. Only at that time can the other party have a chance to make a move. Otherwise, once the child is older and has been switched, we will find out. Only a newborn baby looks different every day. Even if they have switched the child, we won't find out when we get back."
At this point, Shao's father was filled with grief and indignation, and felt deeply guilty.
Because I am a soldier, it is often difficult to strike a balance between the country and my family.
Especially his wife, when she gave birth to their daughter, he was unable to be by her side because he was on a mission.
Heaven knows, when he returned from his mission, he learned that his wife had suffered severe bleeding during childbirth and nearly lost her life along with her unborn child, and had been hospitalized ever since.
How terrified he must have been.
He almost didn't see his wife and daughter again.
Fortunately, everything turned out alright.
My daughter is being well taken care of by the nanny.
My wife has finally recovered.
It was because of this incident that Mr. Shao always felt guilty towards Mrs. Shao and Shao Ziyu, and for more than 20 years he had always been obedient to them.
Even though Shao Ziyu had an eccentric personality and was rebellious and caused trouble in various ways, her father did his best to tolerate her.
But who could have imagined that Shao's father's mission and Shao's mother's hospitalization would be exploited by someone who swapped the daughter that Shao's mother had almost given birth to at the cost of her life?
How cruel Heaven was to them!
"Who switched our daughter? Dad, have you found out? Where is my daughter now?"
Mrs. Shao slumped into a chair, clutching her chest tightly with her hands, feeling as if her heart had been crushed into dust.
Where is her daughter, her real daughter?
Is he still alive?
If she were alive, what kind of life would she lead?
What was her name? What did she look like?
A jumble of questions swirled in Shao's mother's mind.
Each question felt like a giant hammer, relentlessly striking her.
When Mr. Shao heard Mrs. Shao's question, he fell silent for a moment.
I recalled Xu Yirou's attitude towards the Shao family.
Despite being very close to her, she always deliberately avoided visiting her during times when her son and daughter-in-law were visiting.
Once or twice, it might just be a coincidence.
However, on one occasion, he deliberately mentioned that his daughter-in-law and son were coming soon.
However, Xu Yirou immediately took her leave.
Although Xu Yirou's reasons were quite valid and natural.
However, Old Master Shao was a man of great character, and he naturally sensed that Xu Yirou did not want to meet with her son or daughter-in-law.
Now, even though many things have come to light, he cannot force Xu Yirou to do anything against her will.
Although they didn't know why Xu Yirou was deliberately avoiding them, they already owed the child too much, so they naturally couldn't force her to do anything more.
Even the slightest discomfort she might feel is unacceptable.
Thinking of this, Old Master Shao sighed and said, "I'm still investigating this matter. I'll tell you when I have the results."
Hearing what Grandpa Shao said, Mr. and Mrs. Shao, who were immersed in grief, had no doubts.
The room fell silent once more.
Only the sound of Shao's mother's suppressed sobs could be heard.
Looking at his mother, who was overcome with grief, Old Master Shao sighed.
He said to Shao's father, "You two go back first! Zhao Feng can take care of me here."
"Okay." Mr. Shao knew in his heart that his wife's current condition was indeed not suitable for her to stay here any longer.
He immediately took Shao's mother and left.
After the two left, Zhao Feng, who had been waiting outside the door, came in and said, "Commander, why didn't you explain things clearly to the division commander and your wife? Miss Yi Rou is..."
In the past few days, Zhao Feng rushed to Hecheng and went to the labor camp where Li Guixiang and the others were being reformed. After various investigations, he finally confirmed that Xu Yirou was the child that Li Guixiang had transferred from the Shao family.
This matter was far too serious. After investigating it thoroughly, Zhao Feng dared not linger for a moment and rushed back day and night to report the matter to Old Master Shao.
I thought that since Grandpa Shao liked Xu Yirou so much, he would definitely announce it as soon as possible. But I didn't expect that he would choose to keep it a secret for the time being, and didn't even tell his son and daughter-in-law.
Grandpa Shao waved his hand and said, "Yi Rou has been avoiding those two these past few days, so something must have happened between them. As for what happened, given their personalities, neither of them are the type to bully others or take advantage of the weak. The reason definitely isn't theirs, so it must have happened to Shao Ziyu..."
As he spoke, Old Master Shao sighed and said, "The two of them have always spoiled Shao Ziyu too much. It's very likely that something happened that unintentionally hurt Yirou's feelings."
