Chapter 163 There is a grandson
This uncle fits Duanrao's imagination of a chef very well. He is in his early forties, has a square face, is slightly plump, and has a gentle and warm smile on his face.
"Dad, Mom, Uncle Du. This is An An, she's so pretty. I'm your Uncle Ruixiang. Was the food delicious? Did you like it?"
"It's delicious. I've never eaten such delicious food. Uncle, you are amazing."
"Hahahaha, if it's delicious, eat more. If it's not enough, uncle will make more for you."
"Ruixiang, do you want to eat something too?" Mrs. Fu asked in a low voice when she saw her son sitting next to her.
Fu Ruixiang smiled and shook his head: "I ate before I came here, so I'm not hungry now."
After hearing what he said, the old lady gave up, nodded, and said nothing more.
Duanrao glanced at the two of them, seeming to be thinking about something.
After dinner, it's time to get down to business.
Mr. Fu looked at Du Desheng and spoke first, "An'an, your grandfather must have told you about our family's situation before he came. I have lived my life upright, worthy of heaven and earth, and worthy of my conscience. The only thing I feel sorry for is my family."
Hearing him say this, the old lady squeezed her husband's hand comfortingly.
"Because of me, my only grandson Siqi was abducted by his enemies. My son died young in a car accident while trying to find his child. My daughter-in-law became ill due to depression and died soon after. We are left with two old people to see our children off."
Thanks to his sister, Du Yihan, who had been sitting next to Du Desheng and eating silently for a long time, raised his eyebrows unexpectedly. He thought that Uncle Ruixiang was the young master of the Fu family who had lost his child, but he didn't expect that he was not.
"My wife and I are old and we don't have many years left to live. The only wish before I die is to take one last look at my grandson who has been kidnapped to who knows where. When we go downstairs and meet his parents, I can at least talk to them about the child and tell them what the child looks like..."
Mr. Fu's eyes turned red at the end of his speech, and Mrs. Fu's eyes were filled with tears, and she lowered her head and remained silent.
The greatest pain in life is separation from loved ones and death, which is hard to obtain.
It is worth mentioning that Fu Ruixiang was sitting next to the old lady. When he heard the old man’s words, although he did not show his emotions like the other two, he also lowered his head with a gloomy look.
Du Anrao pursed his lips, and cast his gaze towards the Fu family, hesitant: "Well, I have basically understood your affairs. Now I have a bad news and a good news, which one do you want to hear first?"
"this……"
Over the years, the Fu family had been desperate and had tried all sorts of methods to find help, including those so-called famous masters, but most of them ended up wasting time and effort, and in the end they might not get any definite information. Duan Rao was the first one who came straight to the point like this.
The three of them were a little confused after hearing this and didn't give an answer for a long time.
Du Desheng glanced at his old brother and coughed lightly as a reminder.
Mr. Fu finally woke up from his dream and asked awkwardly, "What's the bad news?"
"The bad news is..." Duan Rao paused, and said with a little reluctance, "Unfortunately, the child you are looking for is most likely no longer alive."
"What?!"
Even though they had been searching for years without any news and had been mentally prepared for this, they were still quite shocked when they suddenly got the definite answer.
Mr. Fu's straight back suddenly bent down, making Duanrao realize for the first time that some people can really age ten years in an instant due to a sudden and severe blow.
Madam Fu broke down in tears on the spot, covering her face and sobbing.
However, surprisingly, the person who reacted the most was Fu Ruixiang, who was sitting next to the old lady.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Siqi wouldn't have gotten into trouble, and neither would my brother and sister-in-law. How come I'm not the one who died? I'm the one who deserves to die!"
When Madam Fu heard him say that, she quickly calmed down and comforted her youngest son: "Ruixiang, don't say that. You are not to blame for these things. Don't dwell on them. Your father and I have already lost your brother, sister-in-law, and Siqi. We cannot lose you again."
Old Master Fu also echoed, "Your mother is right. This matter has nothing to do with you. If you really want to investigate, it should be my fault. They came for me. If it weren't for me, Siqi wouldn't be lost, and your brother and sister-in-law wouldn't die of depression because of this. It's my fault, it's me!"
"No, no, no, Dad, don't say that. It's my fault. If you hadn't adopted me, maybe... maybe these things wouldn't have happened."
The old lady was so angry that she didn't even have time to cry. "What's wrong with you two? Can you just take the blame for something like this? The ones who are wrong are the bad guys, the damn human traffickers. They don't think they are wrong. What are you two fighting about?"
After these words were spoken, the father and son froze. After a brief silence, the family of three continued to cry and hugged each other.
The three members of the Du family: "..."
[The old lady is wise, but what is this adoption about? ]
Du Anrao became interested in the information revealed in the conversation between the few people, and looked up and stared at Fu Ruixiang for a long time.
【So that's how it is.】
Du Yihan, the only one who didn't know the inside story, felt anxious. Just tell me what it was like!
It turns out that Fu Ruixiang is the adopted son of the Fu family and also the child of Mr. Fu’s comrade-in-arms.
His mother died of complications during childbirth when he was just born. In the next two or three years, his grandparents who raised him passed away one after another due to illness, and his father also died in the war.
He was the only one left in his family, and people in the village began to gossip about him, believing that he was doomed to be unlucky and would bring misfortune to his father, mother and everyone close to him.
Because of this, no relative was willing to take him in, for fear of being implicated by him.
When Mr. Fu learned about this, he took him in and sent him with his wife and children to seek refuge.
Compared to the old man whom he hadn't seen for a long time, the one who truly filled the role of Fu Ruixiang's father in his childhood was the older brother who was ten years older than him.
So when his brother and sister-in-law's family got into trouble, Fu Ruixiang was more devastated than anyone else. He believed that it was his curse that had cursed his relatives that had taken effect and killed his eldest brother's family.
Du Yihan was a little surprised. He originally thought that this man was an adopted son, and what happened to his biological son's family might be related to him. He didn't expect that this man really treated his adoptive parents as relatives. It was he who judged others by his own standards.
Du Anrao knew the whole story, and then glanced at the three people who were still crying. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he had to remind them: "Actually, there is good news."
The Fu family members stopped crying, and Du Desheng and others looked over.
"The good news is..."
Duan Rao pulled the corner of his mouth, his expression somewhat innocent: "The good news is that you still have a grandson."
"What?!"
