Chapter 587 Shu Yu is indeed not a member of the Shu family.
Aunt Xue has really gone crazy these past few days. The First Madam and the others are slacking off whenever they can, and everyone is bullying her.
Like now, she's been forced out to fetch water and gather firewood. She's the one who does all the tiring and difficult work.
She wanted to build a good relationship with Shu Yu. In the past few days, she had watched as Shu Yu easily carried water back, saw that they still had leftover food every day, and saw that their spirits were getting better and better.
Aunt Xue didn't want to wait for the arrival of any male members of the Shu family to live a good life; she wanted to live a good life right now.
That's why she wanted to stop Shu Yu and try again to soften her relationship with her.
“Ayu, you’re so good to the Hou family, why can’t you be a little more tolerant of me for the sake of our past relationship? No matter what, I’m still your mother. Compared to others, my relationship with you is the closest.”
Shu Yu raised her hand and sneered, "Stop. What mother? Are you my mother? I was bought from someone else to deceive the Shu family. In my eyes, you are not a mother, but just a human trafficker."
"Also, you were indeed kind to me for a period of time when we were kids. But was that just genuine kindness? No, it was just you trying to win my favor and using me as a tool."
"So, stop pretending to be a righteous and filial mother. You're just a vicious woman who will stop at nothing to benefit herself. You've been living a life worse than death as a slave to the Shu family. This is your retribution. Enjoy it while you suffer. I'm quite happy to see you suffer. Now, step aside and don't block my way, or I won't hesitate to let you taste my fists when I deal with human traffickers."
Aunt Xue's expression changed slightly, she choked for a moment, and took two steps back to let Shu Yu pass.
Zhang Pingning, standing at the corner, widened her eyes. Now, there was no need for verification; she had heard with her own ears that Shu Yu was not the daughter of the Shu family.
Seeing Shu Yu walking further and further away, Zhang Pingning hurriedly chased after her.
"Miss Shu, Miss Shu." Zhang Pingning quickly blocked her way.
Shu Yu paused, looking at her in surprise, "Miss Zhang, is there something you need?"
Hmm... Actually, she did see Zhang Pingning just now.
If she hadn't seen her, she wouldn't have wasted so much time talking to Aunt Xue and would have just started throwing punches.
Shu Yu also intended to use the Zhang family's words to let people know about her relationship with the Shu family, so as to avoid her getting into a conflict with the Shu family later and being gossiped about.
Zhang Pingning looked Shu Yu up and down, and indeed, the more he looked, the more he felt that she resembled Sanya.
She quickly said, "Miss Shuyu, my mother would like to invite you to my house. There's something she wants to tell you."
Shu Yu was taken aback. "Is there something you want to tell me?"
“Hmm.” Zhang Pingning paused for a moment, then added, “Now.”
Shu Yu thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, then wait for me a moment, I'll go back and tell them."
"OK."
Shu Yu re-entered the courtyard, gave some instructions to Madam Hou and the Sixth Miss, and then went out.
She still felt strange; why would the Zhang family suddenly want to see her?
Zhang Pingning led Shu Yu home. As soon as they entered the house, she ran quickly to Aunt Zhang and whispered, "Mother, Miss Shu Yu is not a child of the Shu family. I accidentally overheard her conversation with Aunt Xue from the Shu family."
Aunt Zhang was surprised. She had just told the old lady to stay in the house and test Shu Yu first.
Unexpectedly, her daughter told her directly that she had confirmed that she was only an adopted daughter.
