"Sister...sister?"
Yuan Tao called softly, and Yuan Yu nodded at him with tears in her eyes.
"sister!"
Yuan Tao saw with his own eyes Yuan Yu nodding to him, and also saw the child in Yuan Yu's arms waving at him.
He stood up from the sofa and ran towards Yuan Yu regardless of everything.
Hearing Yuan Tao's shout and seeing him anxiously stand up and run behind them, Yuan's father and mother looked back with a glimmer of expectation.
"Xiaoyu!"
"Yu'er! Tangyuan?!"
The two were immediately attracted by the two figures, one big and one small, in front of them and exclaimed in surprise.
Like Yuan Tao, they couldn't wait to get up and run towards Yuan Yu after just one look.
Yuan Tao had already run to Yuan Yu's side. His hands were so nervous that he didn't know what to do with them. He raised them up and put them down again. His eyes were already filled with tears as he looked at Yuan Yu.
"Sister, you... you're finally back. Where on earth have you been? My parents and I have been searching for you so hard!"
The mournful call made Yuan Yu's heart feel like it was being cut by a knife.
Yuan's father and mother also stumbled to Yuan Yu's side. They stared at Yuan Yu's face intently, and could not believe that the person they had been looking for for five years was now standing in front of them.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back."
The old couple didn't ask anything, they just kept saying that it was good that they just came back.
Yuan's mother reached out to hold Yuan Yu's hand, but as soon as she held Yuan Yu's hand, her heart skipped a beat.
She looked up at Yuan Yu in disbelief.
"Yu...Yu'er, you?"
Yuan's father and Yuan Tao also noticed something was wrong. With trembling hands, they reached out to Yuan Yu's arm.
cold.
This was their first feeling when they touched Yuan Yu's skin.
The two of them pinched it desperately, but it was cold without a trace of warmth. This was not the body of a living person.
Like Yuan's mother, they were both struck by lightning. Their minds went blank as they watched Yuan Yu lose his voice.
Seeing his parents and brother like this, Yuan Yu felt more bitter than eating bitter herbs.
"Mom and Dad, Xiao Tao, and me."
Mother Yuan suddenly wiped her eyes and smiled, "It's okay, it's okay. I'm glad you're back. It's great that you brought the dumplings back. Come and sit down. I'll ask your brother to prepare food for you and your daughter."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and patted Yuan Tao. Yuan Tao held back his tears, gave an ugly smile and said.
"Sister, Tangyuan, welcome home. You can watch TV first. I'll go make you something to eat."
While they were talking, Yuan's father, Yuan Zhenxing, quietly turned his head and wiped away his tears. When Yuan Yu looked over, he was met with an elderly and kind smiling face.
"Come, let dad hold the dumplings, and you sit down and take a rest."
Hearing his name being called, Tang Yuan obediently stretched out his hands: "Grandpa, give me a hug."
"Oh, my dear baby, grandpa will hold you." Yuan Zhenxing happily took the glutinous rice balls. Holding the light glutinous rice balls, his face was full of heartache.
Yuan Yu was pulled by her mother Wang Mei to sit on the sofa. Wang Mei held Yuan Yu's hand tightly and looked at Yuan Yu quietly, trying to remember her appearance clearly in her heart.
Yuan Zhenxing had already tuned a cartoon for Tangyuan, and Tangyuan sat beside him and watched it obediently.
"Grandpa, Tangyuan can watch TV alone. Can you go and chat with my mom?"
Yuan Zhenxing was stunned, then smiled and touched her head.
"Grandpa is here to watch cartoons with you and chat with your mom. Tangyuan, sit a little closer to mom."
"OK."
Tangyuan moved his little butt to Yuan Yu's side and pulled Yuan Zhenxing over as well.
When the adults saw how sensible Tangyuan was, their hearts ached.
Tangyuan was watching TV, Yuan Yu was chatting with her parents. Yuan Zhenxing and Wang Mei never asked about Yuan Yu, but shared family matters with her and chatted about gossip.
Yuan Yu also cooperated with them and did not take the initiative to mention his own affairs.
Wait a little longer, until they calm down, then she will say it.
Yuan Tao was asked by his mother Wang Mei to cook. This was the happiest meal he had made in the past few years.
Since his sister disappeared, his parents' health has deteriorated. Although he is not good at cooking and can only cook noodles, he has gradually learned to cook many dishes.
Since there was no food prepared at home, he rode his electric scooter to buy some food and also bought a lot of snacks and toys.
He gave the snacks and toys to Tangyuan and his sister first, and then he walked into the kitchen happily.
Soon, the aroma of food wafted in. Yuan Yu sniffed, not expecting she could still smell the aroma of food. She thought it would be okay to eat a little at that moment.
This is my first time as a ghost, and I don’t know if I can eat. It should be okay to eat a little.
“It’s time to eat!”
Yuan Tao put the food on the table and called on everyone to eat.
Yuan Yu came to the dining table and saw a table full of delicious food. He looked at his brother in surprise.
"Xiao Tao, I didn't expect you to be so good now. You can actually cook so many dishes."
"Hey, sister, this is the first time I cook for you. You can try my cooking later."
"I know it's delicious even before I eat it. It smells so good."
Seeing that the brother and sister couldn't stop chatting, Wang Mei smiled and said, "Sit down and chat."
"good."
Yuan Yu picked up the chopsticks and suddenly paused: "Mom, Dad, Xiao Tao, haven't you eaten yet tonight?"
The three people who were named looked at each other and nodded.
Wang Mei picked up a piece of food for Yuan Yu with her chopsticks and said, "We eat simply. We eat when we're hungry, and we don't eat when we're not hungry."
"Before you came, none of us were hungry, so we didn't cook anything if we didn't want to. If anyone is hungry later, just make some noodles."
In recent years, except for special days, they have never had the energy to cook a table full of dishes and sit down to eat. Although Yuan Tao tried every means to make delicious food for them, he really had no appetite and could not eat it.
Yuan Yu knew that this was because of her missing parents.
Without discussing these topics any further, the family had a happy dinner.
Yuan Yu thought she could eat it, but there was no taste in her mouth. When she wanted to pretend to eat more, Yuan Tao brought out the food specially prepared for her and lit incense for her.
Now, she finally had the chance to eat the delicious meal.
After dinner, Wang Mei suddenly asked Yuan Yu.
"Yu'er, we haven't brought Tangyuan back these years. We are sorry for you."
Seeing Tangyuan, who was so thin and had yellow hair, her heart ached.
But they have no choice.
Yuan Yu quickly shook her head: "How could I blame you? You have been fighting for the custody of Tangyuan, but Xu Feng refused to give it to you. I know everything."
"Yu'er, do you know everything?"
"Yeah, I know."
"I went to Xu Feng's house last night. If I hadn't gone, I really wouldn't have known the truth about the saying that if you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather."
"And I would never have known that my abduction was actually the work of Xu Feng."
