Chapter 69 Return My Son to Me

When Li Xiulan woke up, her eyes were lifeless. She just stared at the ceiling, looking a little dazed and silly.

Yu Zhian and his two sons were frightened by Xiulan's appearance. Yu Zhian held his wife's hand and called out worriedly, "Xiulan."

Li Xiulan pretended not to hear.

Seeing this, Yu Jiali rushed forward and shouted, "Mom, Mom, look at us."

"Yes, Mom, can you please take care of us?" Yu Jiaren was so anxious that his eyes turned red. At this moment he was very glad that he came back with his parents, otherwise how could the third brother handle this matter alone.

When Li Xiulan heard her eldest son choking with sobs, she came to her senses and looked at them: "Help me get discharged from the hospital. I want to go back and ask them why they treated me like this."

"Mom, the doctor said you need to rest well." Yu Jiaren knew that his mother didn't want to talk to his father now, so he quickly said, "You rest well, and we will go and find out about this matter, okay?"

Li Xiulan struggled to sit up. Her head was dizzy and her hair was messy. She looked completely different from the neat and capable Comrade Li. She didn't care at all. She just wanted the truth, justice, and her son.

Seeing his wife like this, Yu Zhian felt very sad: "Go and help your mother get discharged from the hospital."

No matter how his wife struggled, he always held her hand tightly.

Yu Zhian looked at Li Xiulan and said, "We didn't give up on the enemy when the bombardment continued. We didn't give up on the enemy when we couldn't find the team in the snow. We didn't give up on the enemy when we were hit by several bullets and covered in blood and were about to die."

"Xiu Lan, I beg you not to give up on me now, okay?"

After holding back for many days, she finally couldn't hold back her tears and said, "I am so sorry for you and our son. I promised you that I would do whatever it takes to get our family back."

"Don't leave me."

The Yu Jiaren brothers couldn't help but wipe away their tears when they heard this. Their parents have always had a good relationship since they got married. If this matter is not handled well, they dare not think about what kind of storm will be waiting for their family.

Li Xiulan's heart ached when she heard this. She felt sad for the man she had loved for decades, but she felt even more sad for her son.

She took a deep breath to cheer herself up: "Don't cry, I want to find out the truth and then find a way to find my son."

Having said that, Li Xiulan knew in her heart that China was so big and she didn't know where to find her son.

The queues in the suburbs of Chengxian County:

Mrs. Yu, who is over 80 years old, was sitting in front of the door basking in the sun. Several great-grandchildren were running around in the yard. She couldn't help but smile lovingly at the children.

Suddenly a carriage came by. She looked, but due to her old age and blurred vision, she couldn't see clearly who it was.

Several children rushed towards the carriage, and Mrs. Yu shouted, "Don't go, it's dangerous."

Li Xiulan jumped off the carriage. Yu Zhian followed her closely. Yu Jiaren and his brother also jumped off the carriage quickly and shouted behind her, "Mom, Mom, please slow down."

Li Xiulan ignored the shouts of her husband and children behind her. She rushed to Old Lady Yu and asked in a stern voice, "Where is my son? When you took my Jiayi back to our hometown, did you lose him?"

Li Xiulan grabbed Old Lady Yu's shoulders and cried, "Tell me, where is my son? Give my son back to me."

At first, Mrs. Yu didn't recognize who Li Xiulan was. But when she saw the middle-aged man rushing over and heard what Li Xiulan said clearly, her face changed instantly and she was about to fall down.

Yu Zhilin, who was in the house, heard the cries outside and ran out. He saw his mother was frightened by a woman and took a few steps back, staggering and about to fall. He rushed over to support his mother, and then shouted to Li Xiulan: "Who are you? What are you doing in my house? Are you going to fight?"

He spoke in the local dialect, which Li Xiulan could not understand. She just urged the old lady to return her son to her.

Yu Zhian stepped forward to support his wife: "Brother, she is my wife Xiulan."

Yu Zhilin looked over when he heard this and realized that it was his youngest brother who had returned: "Just because you are my wife, you can talk to my mother so loudly?"

"My wife was forced to do this by my mother." Yu Zhian looked at his old mother and said, "Mom, tell me, when you and my father took my second son back to our hometown, did we lose the child?"

After hearing this, Yu Zhilin also looked at his mother: "What, what's going on?"

"Youngest, didn't you bring Jiayi back to Shangyang City that year?"

Yu Zhilin noticed that there were many people around him. He frowned slightly and said, "Let's go inside first." After saying that, he looked at his eldest grandson and said, "Go and call your great grandfather and grandmother, second grandfather, and third grandfather to come over."

Upon hearing this, the eldest grandson ran away.

Yu Zhilin helped his mother sit down, then looked at Xiulan: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, let's calm down and ask clearly."

Yu Zhian translated for his wife.

Li Xiulan took a deep breath and said, "I just want to know where my son is."

She looked at the silent old lady and said, "I think I have been good to you. Although I have not been with you and your father for many years, I still send money back every month. I bought your clothes, shoes and socks." As she spoke, her tears flowed more fiercely. "I don't ask you to remember my kindness. I just ask you to tell me what happened back then."

After she finished speaking, she knelt down in front of the old lady and said, "Please tell me, please." She had no other choice now. As long as she could know the whereabouts of her second son, she would not refuse even if it cost her life.

Seeing this, Yu Jiaren and Yu Jiali also knelt down. No matter what their mother did today, they would stand by her.

Yu Zhian helped his wife up: "Stand up, even if you have to kneel, it should be you, your son, who should kneel."

Li Xiulan was unwilling to get up, but just stared at the old lady stubbornly.

When Old Man Yu and his second and third sons arrived, they saw this scene and he shouted angrily, "What are you doing?"

Li Xiulan didn't even look at the person behind her, she just looked at Old Mrs. Yu while crying.

Yu Zhian turned around and looked at his elderly father: "Dad, we just want to know if my second child is missing. Where did the child I brought back that year come from?"

Upon hearing this, Old Man Yu swayed a few times and his hands shook a little. Finally, with the help of his two sons, he walked over to his wife and sat down.

He was silent for a long time before he said, "I finally found it."

Yu Zhilin and his other two brothers looked at their parents in disbelief. Yu Zhian's second brother, Yu Zhiqing, looked at his brother's family kneeling in the hall, then looked at his parents: "So, you really lost your youngest son."

"Whose child was the one you brought back that year?" The third brother, Yu Zhitian, looked at his parents and said, "Mom and Dad, it's useless for you to remain silent now. You have to give an explanation to the youngest one."

Seeing his parents were still silent, Yu Zhian smiled bitterly and said, "You know that the child I brought home almost killed my little daughter, and wanted to kill several of my sons for the family's money."

"He wants me to have no children for money."
