From the time Shu Ying regained her memories, a tailor would come to the Shu family every day. The old lady would personally select the best silk fabrics, sometimes to make cheongsams, sometimes to make dresses, but every piece she made matched her temperament.
“Yingying, you must remember, there are no ugly women in this world, only lazy women. You must wear the right clothes and say the right things for the right occasion. Even when you are at your lowest point, you must stand up straight and not let others laugh at you. Do you understand?”
At that time, Shu Ying always felt that the profound truths behind these words were too shallow, so she just nodded perfunctorily: "I know, Grandma. I want to be the most beautiful old lady like you in the future."
She only now realizes the truths her grandmother taught her; at the time, she thought they were just commonplace.
Although the Shu family is large and wealthy, they have never done anything immoral or immoral. The old man is kind-hearted and established a foundation in his own name in his early years to help the poor.
She inherited her parents' wishes and went abroad to study medicine, simply because she wanted to reduce the suffering in the world.
Unfortunately, fate is cruel and things don't go as planned. Now she can barely take care of herself, so how can she protect those who are still suffering from illness?
Shu Ying shook her head, then quickly pulled herself back from those thoughts. The past is gone with the wind, and the person is gone. Endless remembrance is nothing but sorrow.
She put everything away from the living room and re-hung up portraits and photos of her parents and grandparents.
Shu Ying sighed, "Since we can't save this house no matter what, let's just replicate it in another space. In fact, we're still not separated, right, Mom and Dad?"
She didn't want to experience all the joys and sorrows of life; she just wanted a life where she could see the end from the beginning, whether it was peaceful or uneventful, as long as her family was together, it didn't matter.
When she returned to the courtyard, Shu Yan and Shu Xuecheng's family were still sprawled on the ground like a pile of mud.
Shu Ying wasn't particularly strong, but she used a clever technique, so it wouldn't be easy for her to wake up in a short time.
She kicked Shu Xuecheng with some disdain; he was bruised and swollen, his face pressed tightly against the stone slab.
"You're as heavy as a dead pig. All the things Grandma told you to use to develop your brain have grown into this body of fat."
The luggage was scattered on the ground in a mess. Apart from the clothes used as cover, it was full of cash. So many boxes of money!
Shu Ying had already guessed that her uncle was the most cautious person. He specifically told Shu Jie to only take the large items, while he and Gao Jie carried all the cash and currency.
As long as the two of them didn't reach the port, there was absolutely no way that Shu Jie, who was penniless, would abandon them and leave.
The situation in Hong Kong was chaotic to begin with, and all the connections people had were with Shu Xuecheng. The good-for-nothing Shu Jie couldn't live without his parents.
Shu Ying wasn't interested in the scheming between the father and son; all she knew was that she couldn't leave them with even the slightest bit of valuables!
Shu Xuecheng's wristwatch, ring, and ration coupons were all confiscated.
The jewelry worn by Gao Jie and Shu Yan was also damaged.
Besides these items that could be converted into money, Shu Ying didn't even spare their clothes and shoes.
The three people lay sprawled on the ground, as if they had grown out of the floor tiles. In the end, they were stripped down to their bare feet, leaving only their thermal underwear underneath.
Shu Ying clapped her hands, looking at her masterpiece with satisfaction.
