Chapter 33 My name is Lu Shuyu
As Lu Dasong spoke, he looked at Madam Ruan with a serious expression, "Second sister-in-law, are you sure? She really is Er Ya."
"I'm sure, absolutely sure, it's her." Madam Ruan nodded hurriedly, gripping Shu Yu tightly. Her eyes were filled with deep wariness as she looked at Lu Dasong, afraid he would say something about letting Shu Yu leave.
Lu Dasong wanted to say something, but seeing this, he choked and could only say a few dry words, "That's good, it's good that you've found them. After so many years, the family is finally reunited. Well... we'll be going now. You've just recognized each other, you must have a lot to say. When Mother and the second son come back, we'll get to know each other again."
Of course, he hoped that the girl in front of him was Er Ya. Over the years, he had personally witnessed how his second son's life had gone from being relatively comfortable to what it was like now.
The second brother was always hardworking. When he was young, he was taken in as an apprentice because of his steady personality. After he finished his apprenticeship, got married, and became the richest man, he earned the most money. His wife was also diligent. It could be said that before Er Ya was stolen, the second brother was the best off among the three brothers.
At that time, the brothers had a good relationship, but the second brother insisted on finding Er Ya. A year or two would have been fine, but the search lasted for more than ten years. Who could withstand such torment? Before long, the second brother's family became more and more impoverished and had to borrow money everywhere.
He had his own family, and his wife was unhappy after borrowing money from him once. At that time, his mother was also living with him, the eldest son, but the old lady always used her share of food to help the second son. His wife and mother argued several times, so the old lady simply went to live with the second son.
The brothers naturally grew distant from each other, and even rarely saw each other anymore.
Thinking of this, Lu Dasong couldn't help but sigh. He looked at Shu Yu, "Er..." Looking at her face, Lu Dasong couldn't bring himself to call out the name Er Ya.
"Just call me Shuyu, my name is Lu Shuyu." Shuyu was her name before she transmigrated. In the Shu family, she was called 'Shuyu'. Although they sound the same, they are different characters.
Upon hearing what she said, Ruan's face lit up with obvious joy; Er Ya had just said that her surname was Lu.
Lu Dasong raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Alright, Shuyu, then you should have a good talk with your second sister-in-law. They've never given up looking for you all these years. We'll be going now."
After saying that, Lu Dasong called Lu Sanzhu and his wife to leave.
Lu Sanzhu was unwilling, "Brother, I'll stay here and get to know my niece better."
Lu Dasong frowned. "What feelings? Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Come out with me."
"No, brother, I'm being very sincere."
Lu Dasong ignored him completely, grabbed him by the collar and started to walk out.
Lu Sanzhu was usually lazy and didn't like to work. He was no match for Lu Dasong, who spent his days doing heavy work in the fields. He struggled several times but couldn't break free and could only be dragged out of the hospital.
Madam Liang glanced at Shu Yu and the others, then at her husband who had been taken away. She stomped her foot angrily and said, "Second sister-in-law, we'll head back now. We'll come see our niece another day."
The three of them left Lu Er's courtyard one after the other.
There were still quite a few villagers lingering outside the courtyard, constantly peeking and wondering about the Lu family's discovery of their daughter who had been missing for over a decade.
Shu Yu, in particular, didn't seem like someone who was down on his luck. They all thought that Lu Lao Er's hard times were finally over and he was about to become rich.
Upon seeing Lu Dasong emerge, they all pretended to know nothing, looking at the sky, the ground, and the corners of the walls.
