Chapter 825 Aunt Xue's Dilemma
Aunt Xue had had enough of working every day in Zhengdao Village. Now that hope was in sight, she just wanted to hold on tight.
However, she also knew very well that Shu Yu was not friendly to her. Even if she begged her, Shu Yu would not only ignore her, but would also cause her trouble.
But it's okay, if Shu Yu doesn't work out, she can find someone else.
Aunt Xue remained silent and did not tell the Shu family about her plans.
After dark, she quietly went out when no one was looking.
Shu Yu was currently escorting her parents to the estate to rest. Since the Lu family didn't have enough rooms, Lu Erbai and the others were staying at the estate as before.
Zhao Xi and Meng Yunzheng also lived there, but it was inconvenient for them to stay at the Lu family's house now.
Shu Yu and Da Ya escorted them to the manor, and then Meng Yunzheng and his companion escorted them home.
Shu Yu, “…” Well, it seems there’s nothing wrong with it.
She and Lu Erbai waved goodbye. "Father and Mother, get some rest. If you need anything, just ask Brother Wang."
"Okay, you can go back now."
Watching the four leave, Madam Ruan sighed with emotion, "Yunzheng is truly a good person. Now that Ayu can return to her hometown, their marriage can finally be put on the agenda, right?"
Lu Erbai thought for a moment, "No rush, Ayu hasn't come of age yet."
"That's right, we should wait until he comes of age to talk about it." Besides, they haven't even met Young Master Meng's family yet.
As they talked, the two closed the gate and turned to go back to the backyard to rest.
But after taking only two steps, there was a knock on the door.
The couple exchanged a glance. "Did Ayu forget something?"
As they were talking, Lu Erbai opened the door.
He was taken aback when a strange woman stood outside. "Who are you looking for?"
"You must be Ayu's parents, right? You must be Brother Lu and his wife, right?"
"Who are you?" Lu Erbai immediately became alert. Even though the other party looked rather disheveled and harmless, he couldn't help but take a small step back when he heard the other party mention A Yu.
“I am Ayu’s adoptive mother.”
Ayu's adoptive mother?
Lu Erbai and Madam Ruan's expressions changed abruptly, their eyes immediately blazing with anger. "You're the Xue who mistreated my daughter? How dare you come here?"
Seeing that they were angry, Aunt Xue hurriedly said, "Brother and sister-in-law, please don't be anxious. I know I was wrong in the past, but I had my reasons. Please let me explain."
"Difficulties? No matter how great the difficulties, they are not a reason for you to abuse my daughter." Ruan's eyes were red. She looked around and even wanted to grab something handy to hit her.
Aunt Xue hurriedly said, "But if I don't treat her that way, she will die!"
Lu Erbai and Ruan Shi were taken aback, and then heard Aunt Xue continue, "I don't know what A Yu has told you, but there are some things I have never had the chance to tell her. Now that I know she has been granted the title of Lady of the Township, I'm afraid we will never have the chance to see each other again. If I don't tell her now, my daughter and I will regret this misunderstanding for the rest of our lives."
She didn't give Lu Erbai and the other man a chance to speak, wiping away her tears as she said, "Ayu has been beautiful since she was little. In the entire Shu family, she's the prettiest one. I really like her very much, and I genuinely treat her like my own daughter. Not only me, but my husband does too. Who wouldn't like a beautiful and well-behaved child? Don't you think so?"
