Chapter 1488 Lu Sanzhu Insists on Paying
old lady,"……"
This third sister, she can't stand not causing trouble every day, right? What do you mean she's having a mental breakdown?
She glared at Lu Sanzhu fiercely. "Alright, get out of here."
The group gradually left, but as they walked away, the old lady couldn't help but smile.
Although the third brother's words were unpleasant, he was right. With such a house full of filial sons and grandsons, who else is as fortunate as her?
Even the most unreliable third brother and his wife had eyes full of worry just now.
Shu Yu remained sitting on the edge of the bed until everyone had left before asking, "Is Grandma feeling any better?"
"I was fine to begin with." Apart from feeling a little weak, she didn't feel much anymore. Zhao Xi's medical skills were truly excellent.
Shu Yu smiled and said, "Yes, you're alright."
She poured the old lady a glass of water, and after watching her drink it, she said, "Grandma, I have something to tell you."
"What's up?"
"I asked someone to help me find out where my great-aunt is."
The old woman suddenly turned to look at her, her eyes wide with disbelief. "What, what did you say?"
Shu Yu smiled and said, "I heard from my mother that you've been thinking about it. Didn't you say before that not reconciling with Grandma Liu was your regret? We still have a lot of time and energy now, let's not leave any regrets."
The old woman gripped her hand tightly, her voice trembling slightly. "You, you, you're all so busy, why bother with this? It's been so many years... Where can we still find it? Maybe, maybe it's long gone..."
"How would we know if we didn't look for it? Besides, we asked a security escort agency to look for it. We have the means now, so let's look for it."
The old lady gripped Shu Yu's hand even tighter. She took a slow, deep breath, raised her head, and said with bright eyes, "Okay, let's find her!"
Whether he is dead or alive, there must be an explanation.
Shu Yu felt relieved. "Then Grandma, you must rest well and take good care of yourself."
"good."
Shu Yu chatted with her for a while before leaving. Unexpectedly, when she returned to the front hall, she saw Lu Sanzhu holding a piece of silver and painfully stuffing it into Lu Erbai's arms, saying, "Second Brother, this is all I have. I still owe A-Yu money, and I can't afford to pay more."
Lu Erbai almost rolled his eyes in exasperation. "I don't need you to pay for this. I'll pay for it myself."
“That won’t do.” Lu Sanzhu snorted. “This is my mother’s business. How can I, as her son, not contribute a single penny? I have to give her something, at least as a token of my appreciation. These two taels of silver are half a month’s wages for me.”
Lu Erbai really wanted to say, "If you can't bear to part with it, then forget it."
Shu Yu was puzzled and asked Shu You, who was standing next to her, "Sister, what's going on?"
Shu You chuckled and said, "When my eldest uncle heard that my father had hired a bodyguard from a security escort agency to help inquire about my aunt's whereabouts, he took out all the silver he had on him and said that he couldn't help much, but could only give some silver. My third uncle also gave two taels, but he was a little reluctant to part with it."
Of course he couldn't bear to part with it! He looked so heartbroken, as if he wanted to bang his head against the ground, as if his heart was being ripped out.
However, Shu You beside her slowly said, "But Uncle still gave it to her. If it were before, when Grandma was eating coarse food and wild vegetables at our house, Uncle wouldn't have given her any extra food. Now that he's willing to give two taels of silver, it seems that Grandma's illness has frightened Uncle."
When Liang went back and called out, Lu Sanzhu immediately asked for leave and rushed over.
Shu Yu witnessed firsthand how relieved her third uncle looked when he heard that the old lady was alright.
