Chapter 9 The whereabouts of my daughter are revealed!
Yao Guixiang was at a loss as to what to do. She turned around and looked at her husband. Both of them were a little puzzled.
The only person who can call them grandpa and grandma is Yunlan’s child, the youngest in the family!
Su Luo shook her head. She did not admit her mistake. The next second, she threw herself into her grandmother's arms and hugged her tightly.
Tears gushed out like bursting dam.
"grandmother……"
“Ouch, ouch…”
Yao Guixiang was heartbroken by this girl's crying. Whose child was this? How could she mistakenly take her as her grandmother?
Jiang Xiaoliu poked his little head out of the house and saw the older sister who had saved him before hugging his grandmother and calling her "Grandma". He felt so strange!
Jiang Houde walked over and looked at the scene in front of him. He was puzzled and finally couldn't help asking, "Girl, are you here looking for your relatives? What are your parents' names? Where are you from?"
Su Luo got up from Yao Guixiang's arms and said with tears in her eyes, "I'm here to look for my relatives. My mother's name is Jiang Yunlan. This is the jade pendant my mother left for me..."
"Ah! Yunlan..."
The old couple were shocked to the extreme when they suddenly heard their youngest daughter's name.
"You... your mother's name is Jiang Yunlan? Jiang Yunlan is the youngest in our family! You are Yunlan's child..."
Yao Guixiang couldn't help pinching herself, wondering if she was dreaming.
Her daughter's daughter actually came to her house?
Looking at the jade pendant in Su Luo's hand, it was indeed Jiang Yunlan's.
The girl in front of them is really their granddaughter!
"No way! Yunlan's child is already this big? This..."
Jiang Houde was also shocked. He could still remember what his daughter looked like when she left home. She was a young and beautiful girl then, but now, her child has grown up so much?
Mentioning their daughter Jiang Yunlan undoubtedly uncovered the scars in the hearts of the old couple, making their hearts ache again.
Jiang Yunlan eloped with a man from another place despite the opposition of her parents and family, making the Jiang family a laughing stock in the surrounding village.
The old couple were almost mad with anger at the time and swore to pretend that they had never given birth to that daughter.
But as time went by, the anger and hatred also dissipated with time. What the old couple was most worried about was their little daughter who was missing.
Unfortunately, communications and transportation were not so developed in that era, and they didn’t know where their daughter had gone. Over the years, there hadn’t been a single letter or telegram from their daughter, and several of their sons had taken turns looking for her, but there was no trace of her.
Now, my granddaughter has come to me on her own initiative, and I finally know where my daughter is!
The old couple recovered from the huge shock and felt even more surprised.
They looked Su Luo over carefully many times, asked her age and name, pulled her into the house, sat down and asked, "Girl, why did you come back alone? Where's your mother? Isn't she back?"
Su Luo felt her grandparents' concern for her mother, and she had been thinking about whether or not to hide the news of her mother's death from them.
But think about it, you have to know it eventually.
The more you conceal it, the greater harm it will cause to the Jiang family.
"Grandpa, grandma, my mom is gone."
Su Luo stated this fact calmly.
"Gone? You mean...our Yunlan has already...already..."
Yao Guixiang covered her chest with her hands, she was in so much pain that she could hardly speak. She couldn't believe that her little daughter had passed away.
Jiang Houde couldn't believe it either, and asked in shock, "Luoluo, are you telling the truth? Your mother is gone?"
Su Luo nodded, "My mother died when I was a few years old."
"Oh! My Yunlan! We didn't even get to see each other for the last time..."
The old couple were both greatly shocked and burst into tears. Su Luo also felt uncomfortable and started crying with them.
Jiang Xiaoliu lay on the side and stared at everyone curiously. He didn't understand why they were crying, but he felt that the sister was so pitiful that she cried so much that he wanted to cry too.
How can one not feel heartbroken when thinking about the daughter that one has raised with great difficulty, who was deceived by a villain and ended up dying in a foreign land?
The old couple was sad for a while, but Su Luo persuaded them to calm down.
Yao Guixiang held Su Luo's hand tightly and asked sadly, "Which province is your family from? Where?"
She wanted to know where her daughter had gone after eloping with someone.
"Jinzhou."
"Jinzhou? It's several provinces away, thousands of kilometers away."
No wonder their family has never been able to find their daughter’s whereabouts. It’s because of the geographical location, it’s too far away, and transportation is inconvenient. How can they find her easily?
"Girl, how did you get here from such a far place by yourself?" Yao Guixiang asked, wiping away her tears.
"I came here by train, got off in Linyuan City, took a bus to Weinan County, then transferred to Huanghe Town, and walked to Jiangjiaba. I really found it." Su Luo recounted what happened.
Yao Guixiang was heartbroken and hugged Su Luo in her arms, "Oh, you've suffered so much. How have you been living since your mother passed away?"
"Later, my father remarried and I lived with them. I didn't have enough to eat, was often beaten and scolded, and had to do a lot of hard work. This time I couldn't stand it anymore, so I ran away from home."
Listening to Su Luo's story, the elderly couple Yao Guixiang and Jiang Houde were heartbroken.
If the journey wasn't long and Jiang Houde wasn't old, he really wanted to grab a knife and chop up that scumbag Su Qingshou.
Not only did they ruin their daughter, but they also abused their granddaughter. Look at how the child was tortured.
Yao Guixiang lifted the sleeves of Su Luo's arms and looked at the scars that had not healed. She felt an unbearable pain in her heart. She touched her pale, thin, dark gray face and said with tears in her eyes, "Don't be afraid, child. Stay at grandma's house from now on. This is your home."
The old man who lost his daughter poured all his thoughts and love for his daughter into his granddaughter at that moment.
Yao Guixiang suppressed her heartache and told Jiang Houde, "Go and kill the old hen at home and give it to my granddaughter as a good nourishment."
Knowing that his granddaughter is already eighteen years old, but looks so thin that she is only fifteen or sixteen years old, how can the old man not feel distressed?
Now I wish I could give her all the good things in the house!
Rural families keep hens to lay eggs and hatch chicks. How could Su Luo ask her grandmother to kill the laying hens as soon as she arrived?
She stopped Jiang Houde who was about to catch the chicken in time and said, "Grandpa, don't kill the chicken. I don't really want to eat it. My appetite is not very good."
Su Luo made an excuse, but it made Yao Guixiang feel even more distressed. "Luoluo, your body must have been tortured. Your appetite needs to be adjusted slowly. I won't kill the chicken today. I'll kill it another day when you're ready to eat. Now, grandma will make some steamed egg custard for you. Let's heal your body first."
In this way, Su Luo settled down in her grandmother's house.
Yao Guixiang asked Jiang Houde to fetch some water for washing face and asked Su Luo to wash her face. They wanted to take a good look at their granddaughter's face.
