Chapter 88 Bones Hurt the Hand
The old lady felt increasingly distressed. She hadn't lost weight at all; she was even thinner than the last time she'd seen her, and looked much older.
She couldn't help but glare at Zhang Shu, who was standing next to her daughter, clearly resenting him.
Zhang Shu looked guilty. "I'm sorry, Grandma. Yes, it's my fault for not taking good care of her."
Daya quickly changed the subject, "Grandma, where's Erya? I want to see Erya."
The old lady quickly turned to the side and called out to Shu Yu behind her, "Er Ya, come quickly and meet your sister and brother-in-law."
Shu Yu walked over to Daya in a few steps. Daya excitedly grabbed her hand and looked her over. "Good, good, our Er Ya is safe and sound. It's good that she's home. The family is reunited. We won't leave again, ah."
Shu Yu nodded. "Yes, I'm back, sis."
She reached out and hugged Daya, only to find that the body beneath her was almost nothing but bones, and it was very uncomfortable to hold.
Shu Yu couldn't help but frown, but Da Ya quickly let go of her and said with a smile, "Let's go inside, we can talk about it inside."
Shu Yu looked at her face; there were dark circles and bags under her eyes, her lips were bloodless, and her complexion was pale.
In this way, she not only looked older than Cuihua of the same generation, but she even looked older than Li Shi.
What kind of life must one lead to ruin a person like this?
Shu Yu guessed that Da Ya was having a hard time, but she didn't expect it to have gotten this bad.
She opened her mouth, staring intently at Zhang Shu, until Da Ya squeezed her hand. Only then did Shu Yu suppress her anger, grab Da Ya's hand in return, and the group went into the house together.
Zhang Shu followed behind awkwardly. After visiting Lu Erbai with Da Ya, he consciously went to a corner and whispered to Da Niu and Lai Jinhai.
Da Ya was very concerned about Shu Yu, asking her where she had been all these years, how she was doing, and whether she had suffered.
Shu Yu repeated his previous explanation, which reassured Da Ya.
Not long after, the old lady came to call us for dinner.
Lu Sixing still hadn't arrived, and the old lady figured something might have delayed her.
“Let’s eat first. I’ll leave some food for them. We can’t all be hungry while waiting for them.”
There were quite a few people, so two tables were set up, one in the main room and one in the kitchen.
As soon as the food was served, everyone felt their stomachs rumbling.
The meal was much more lavish than they had imagined. Although there were more vegetables, there was also fish, meat, and eggs, and it was very oily, making everyone's mouths water.
The old lady glanced at everyone and said, "Alright, let's eat."
Almost everyone instinctively reached for the meat dishes, but Da Ya smiled and picked up a piece of loofah that was closest to her.
Shu Yu was two seats away from her, but she kept an eye on her.
After finishing the meal, Da Ya didn't eat much.
Shu Yu couldn't help but frown.
After finishing their meal, Lu Sixing still hadn't come, so they figured she wouldn't be able to.
The old lady was just thinking about whether to send Da Niu to take a look when she heard Zhang Shu and Da Ya come over and say they were going back.
The old lady was stunned. "Didn't I tell you to stay at home today? Your second sister just came back. Don't you want to spend some quality time with her and have a good talk?"
Of course Da Ya wanted to, but...
She took the old lady's hand and said with a smile, "I had already told my mother-in-law that we would go back early. It's not really good for us to stay here."
Shu Yu looked at Zhang Shu, who was just staring blankly to the side without saying a word.
