"What's strange about that?"
Li Yunshu also walked to Li Zhenzhen's side and looked at the photo of this grandmother who was not related to her by blood.
Li Zhenzhen hesitated for a moment and said, "Grandma looks alike to Aunt Li. Their eyebrows and face shape are exactly the same. Even their noses are somewhat similar."
Hearing this, Li Yunshu's face froze.
Old Mrs. Yu was startled at first, then she took back the photo and looked at it carefully.
Mother Gu: "If Zhenzhen hadn't said it, I wouldn't have noticed it. Now that I look at her carefully, Shuping really does look like her aunt. If Zhenzhen looks 10%, then Shuping looks 70% like her!"
Old Mrs. Yu touched the photo with trembling hands, "It looks like her, very much like her."
"Who is Shuping?" Mr. Zou asked.
Master Li said, "It's a female comrade who runs a dumpling shop. She's in her teens. Some time ago, Qiuya was sick and couldn't eat. She came to our house and made dumplings."
When Master Zou heard this, he said, "Could she be your lost youngest daughter?"
Hearing this, Zheng Guoping subconsciously looked up at his wife Li Yunshu.
Li Yunshu's expression changed slightly, and she shook her head and said, "That's impossible. Aunt Mu asked about it the last time she came home. She doesn't have a red butterfly birthmark on her body. She probably just looks like her."
Li Zhenzhen: "But can people who are not related by blood also look so similar?"
Zheng Guofang glanced at his sister-in-law and said, "Things have the same shape, people have similarities, and it is normal for people in this world to look alike even if they are not related by blood."
"For example, there are two students in my class who are not related to each other. One is from the south and the other is from the north. They look quite similar. I mistakenly thought they were brothers at first."
Old Mrs. Yu looked at the photo without saying a word. She had felt a sense of familiarity when she saw Shuping before, and now she discovered that Shuping looked so similar to her long-deceased mother-in-law. Even though she knew that Shuping had no birthmark, her heart could not calm down.
Zheng Xinqiang also said: "There are two teachers in our school who look alike, but one is a man and the other is a woman, and they are not related by blood."
Mr. Zou said: "But this Shuping should just look like Aunt Chen."
"Can I take a look?" Gu Zhenyuan asked.
Old Mrs. Yu handed over the photo.
Gu Zhenyuan took a closer look and found that the beautiful woman in the photo did look a lot like Comrade Li Shuping.
He has been a public security officer for so many years and has seen countless people, but this is the first time he has seen two people who are not related by blood but look so similar.
"How is it? Doesn't she look a lot like Shuping?" asked Gu's mother.
Gu Zhenyuan nodded and returned the photo, "They do look alike."
Li Yunshu: "But she doesn't have a butterfly birthmark on her body, so she's definitely not Xiaoshu."
That’s right, sister, Li Yunshu is half a year older than Li Yunshu.
Old Madam Yu and Mr. Li looked at each other. Whether it was true or not, they wanted to confirm it in person.
Li Yunshu saw that the old couple didn't say anything, but just put the photo away. As soon as they put it down, another guest arrived at this time, and the topic was terminated.
Li Boyan arrived home just when everyone was seated. Seeing him back, everyone greeted him.
"Bo Yan is back."
"Second Brother Li."
"Commander Li."
"Brother Boyan."
"Uncle Li."
"Second uncle."
"Dad." Li Zhenzhen trotted over to meet him.
Li Boyan looked at his daughter whom he hadn't seen for more than half a year, touched her head and said, "You've grown taller again."
"Really?" Li Zhenzhen turned around happily.
Zheng Guofang looked at Li Boyan's affectionate behavior towards her daughter Li Zhenzhen, and her eyes darkened. If it weren't for this daughter, she and Brother Boyan would have been together long ago.
Li Boyan looked at his tall and graceful daughter, his face full of sighs and relief that his daughter had grown up.
"Brother Boyan, you're back. We've been waiting for you. Come and sit down." Zheng Guofang's cheeks were flushed as she pulled open the chair next to her.
Zheng Guofang sat at the main table with Li Yunshu and the others.
Li Boyan just glanced at her, then looked away and walked to his father to wish him a happy birthday.
Old Madam Yu looked at Zheng Guofang and said, "Guofang, there are not enough seats at the main table. Can you sit at Xinqiang's table?"
The people sitting at the main table were all Mr. Li’s old friends and close relatives of the Li family, mostly elders. Zheng Xinqiang didn’t like sitting with the elders, so he sat at another table.
Zheng Guofang's expression froze and she looked embarrassed. Although she wanted to sit with Li Boyan, since Old Lady Yu had spoken, she had no choice but to follow the host's wishes and go to the table where her nephew Zheng Xinqiang was sitting.
Zheng Guoping's face looked a little unhappy. He felt that Old Lady Yu looked down on his sister by sending her to another table.
His daughter Guofang had waited for her second uncle for so many years and had wasted her youth, but no one in the Li family had any sympathy or love for her. When they suggested that her second uncle marry Guofang, it was clear that they looked down on Zheng Guoping's sister.
Everyone gathered together to eat, clinked glasses and exchanged toasts, it was very warm and lively.
When the banquet was coming to an end, there were some matters in the military district that needed Li Boyan's attention over the phone, so he went up to the study on the second floor.
Grandpa and Dad both drank a lot of wine. Li Zhenzhen got off the table and went to the kitchen to cook sobering soup.
Just as I was stirring the soup in the pot, Li Yunshu came in and asked Sister Wang and Sister Chen to go out and clean up the table.
"Zhenzhen, what do you think of your Aunt Guofang?" Li Yunshu walked up to Li Zhenzhen and asked.
Hearing her aunt ask this, Li Zhenzhen roughly guessed what she was going to say, because her aunt had asked her this question many times when she was a child.
But when I was little, I asked one more question, "How about letting Aunt Guofang be your mother?"
Her answer at that time was always, "I have a mother, I don't need someone else to be my mother."
"Yeah, it's good." Li Zhenzhen nodded perfunctorily.
Li Yunshu said, "Look, your father hasn't been looking for you for so many years, and your Aunt Guofang has been delayed for so many years. Your Aunt Guofang is already over 10 years old. If he wastes another two years, she will be 10 years old."
Li Zhenzhen: "..."
Why does it sound like she has delayed Aunt Guofang?
Li Yunshu continued, "When you were a child, your aunt Guofang was the best to you and bought you a lot of clothes and shoes."
"You are grown up now. When your father comes back, go tell him that you have grown up and hope he can find a companion to take care of him and accompany him."
Li Zhenzhen frowned, "Aunt, I told you that if my father wants to find another one, I have no objection."
"I know, but your father doesn't know." Li Yunshu said, "He has been alone for so many years because of you, and there is no one around him who cares about him and loves him. If you don't tell him, how does he know that you don't object?"
Li Zhenzhen: "..."
"Your Aunt Guofang has loved your father for so many years and has waited for him for more than ten years. She is deeply in love with your father. She is also good to you, and our family knows her inside out. Instead of letting your father find someone else, it is better for you to marry your Aunt Guofang."
"You are a good child. You should pity your aunt Guofang's infatuation and tell your father that you like your aunt Guofang. If possible, you hope that they can be together."
Compared to his adopted sister, the words of Li Zhenzhen, his biological daughter, carry more weight to Li Boyan.
