Chapter 105

Lu Yu stopped in his tracks and did not turn around. Jiang Nian turned around and looked outside the door. Shen Ai was standing there, wearing a dark blue coat. She had been well taken care of by Uncle Du over the years. She was much younger than other women of her age. Her skin was very white and she had never been exposed to the sun. Her eyes were tender and she looked good even in her middle age.

Their eyes met and Jiang Nian clearly saw Shen Ai's pleading look, as if she wanted her to persuade Lu Yu.

Jiang Nian pursed her lips, retracted her gaze to look at Lu Yu, and pinched the man's slightly stiff fingers: "Go, just consider it as a way to put an end to the past ten years."

Seeing Lu Yu looking at her, Jiang Nian pursed her lips and smiled.

The veins on Lu Yu's temples throbbed twice. He turned around and looked at Shen Ai who was standing outside the door. He moved his thin lips several times before uttering a word: "Okay."

Shen Ai finally smiled. She coughed twice and walked towards Lu Yu. Jiang Nian said to Lu Yu: "It's cold outside. Let's go in and warm up."

Lu Yu nodded: "I'll find you later."

When Jiang Nian and Shen Ai passed by, Shen Ai smiled gratefully at her. Jiang Nian pursed her lips and said nothing. Only she knew that she was not helping Shen Ai. But Lu Yu, since he has come here, let Lu Yu leave without regrets. Even though Lu Yu said that he didn't want to ask that question again, she felt that he still wanted to ask it in his heart.

In fact, she also wanted to ask Shen Ai in person why she was so cruel to abandon Lu Yu.

When she left him, she didn't think about what would happen to Lu Yu?

Fortunately, he met the Xu family. His father-in-law treated Lu Yu as well as Xu Cheng. He supported them to study and join the army, and treated them equally without bias.

If it weren't for Uncle Xu, Lu Yu didn't know what he would become. What if Lu Yu had met the group of vampires in the Jiang family?

Jiang Nian didn't dare to think about what kind of torture Lu Yu would have encountered since childhood.

Don't mention whether Lu Yu can forgive Shen Ai. As a bystander, she feels that Shen Ai is so cruel. Even if she has her own reasons, she shouldn't leave the child alone.

Jiang Nian looked back when she entered the house. Lu Yu and Shen Ai walked forward along this narrow road. Shen Ai raised her head and looked at Lu Yu several times, trying to find a topic to talk about, but Lu Yu always looked ahead and never gave her a chance.

Jiang Nian retracted his gaze and walked into the house, and saw Du Jiang standing outside the house. Du Jiang's hands were stained with sheep fat, and his face looked a little cold and heavy. When he saw Jiang Nian come in, he quickly put away the expression on his face and said with a smile: "Come in and sit down, it's cold outside."

Jiang Nian nodded: "Yeah."

It

was windy today, especially with the Gobi desert all around. The wind brought sand, and it felt like a layer of dirt blowing on his face.

Shen Ai coughed a few more times. She stood with her back to the wind and suddenly felt that the wind behind her had died down. Curiously, she turned around and saw Lu Yu blocking the wind for her. The little boy in the past had grown into a man who stood tall and upright. He shielded her from the biting cold wind. Shen Ai's eyes turned red and she couldn't help crying in the end. Her tearful eyes kept looking at Lu Yu: "Little Lu Yu, have you been well these years?"

Lu Yu turned his gaze away from her and looked at the vast Gobi Beach: "Very well."

Shen Ai pinched her sleeves and wiped away her tears: "Your Uncle Xu and the others are very helpful. "Is the whole family okay?"

Lu Yu paused and said, "Uncle Xu and Big Brother Xu are both dead."

Shen Ai raised her head in shock, looking at Lu Yu in disbelief, her lips trembling for several times before she asked, "How long have they been dead?"

Lu Yu said, "Several years."

Shen Ai covered her face and cried out, the sound of grief overflowing from between her fingers, she cried and said, "I'm sorry to your Uncle Xu, sorry to the Xu family, and even more sorry to you, little Yu, mother is sorry to you."

She cried pitifully, her voice choked with sobs, telling of her guilt towards him all these years.

Lu Yu stood stiffly, his eyes staring into the distance. After a long time, his eyes slowly moved and he lowered his eyes to look at Shen Ai who was a few steps away. He did not ask her why she abandoned him, nor did he ask her if she had regretted it all these years. He just asked calmly, "Does Uncle Du know about my existence all these years?"

Shen Ai stopped crying, put down her hands and looked at Lu Yu. Her face was covered with tears and her eyes were red: "I... " She lowered her head, her eyes were full of guilt: "Xiao Yu, I'm sorry."

Shen Ai's shoulders shook a few times, and she began to cry again.

Lu Yu already knew the answer, so he didn't ask again. The two stood at the intersection for a long time. Occasionally, people passed by and saw Shen Ai crying and couldn't help asking her what was wrong. Shen Ai quickly wiped her tears and said that she was fine.

She looked up at Lu Yu, and couldn't say the words stuck in her throat.

After not seeing each other for eighteen years, she had forgotten how to get along with little Lu Yu. He didn't like to stick to her and talk to her like Xiao Liang did. She couldn't figure out what was in little Lu Yu's mind. It seemed that the person standing in front of her was not her son, but a stranger she hadn't seen for a long time.

When Shen Ai didn't see Lu Yu, she thought that her eldest son might still look the same as he did eighteen years ago. This time, she realized that everything had changed.

When she left Honggou Village, she never thought about going back. She took the money left by Lu Tianxiao and returned to Xinjiang. She found her home in Xinjiang. Her second grandmother and her family had all passed away, and the house was requisitioned by the brigade. She moved into Du Jiang's home and hid the fact that she had been married and had children. She was afraid that Du Jiang would dislike her. Later, she married Du Jiang. Du Jiang never asked her about her experience in the past years and was still as good to her as he was eleven years ago.

Du Jiang knew that she was not in good health and never let her go to work in the fields. She also knew that it was not easy for Du Jiang to support a family alone. She originally wanted to tell him about Xiao Yu, but she was afraid of adding burden to him, so she never told him until she fell seriously ill last summer. Du Jiang bought a train ticket to Yun City to find Lu Yu the next day.

Later, Du Jiang came back and told her that he went to Yun City, and his neighbor told him that Lu Yu was now in Yuan City. He bought a train ticket to Yuan City, but unexpectedly met Lu Yu on the train.

"Little Yu."

Shen Ai trembled: "Do you blame your mother?"

Lu Yu turned away from her gaze and looked at the Gobi Beach in the distance. His low voice was blown away by the wind: "I have almost forgotten the past."

With a sentence, he lightly lifted the past and put aside the grudges from more than ten years ago.

Lu Yu's cold response and indifferent appearance made Shen Ai feel extremely uncomfortable. She turned her back to Lu Yu, pursed her lips and cried. If she could go back to eighteen years ago, she would never abandon Xiao Yu again, no matter how hard or tiring it was, even if Du Jiang didn't like Xiao Yu, she would keep him by her side.

But it's too late to say anything now.

She felt guilty towards Xiao Yu, she owed Xiao Yu, and she had given her companionship to Du Jiang and Xiao Liang over the years.

Lu Yu looked at the slightly hunched back in front of him, which gradually overlapped with the slender back eighteen years ago. Outside the gate of the Xu family, the woman shook off his hand, turned around and said to him, "Mom will be back in a few days, you stay at Uncle Xu's house first.

" After she left, Lu Yu would sit outside the gate of the Xu family every day, waiting for the person who would never come back.

From the initial expectation to disappointment, and then to despair and giving up.

Lu Yu closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "The wind is strong, let's go home." He turned around and left first. Shen Ai stopped crying and turned to look at the tall and straight figure in the strong wind .
