"Wait for me a moment! I'll be there soon!"
Lou Xiuyu ran back to her room, and Xia Lan could hear her rummaging through the house, seemingly looking for something.
"ah!"
"We've finally found it!"
Lou Xiuyu walked over happily, carrying an old photo album.
"Look at you, don't you look like the person in the photo?"
Lou Xiuyu said happily to Xia Lan, opened the photo album, pointed to one person in the family photo, and looked at Xia Lan.
The more I look at you, the more you resemble me.
Lou Xiuyu looked at Xia Lan, and Xia Lan followed her finger and saw a woman wearing a cheongsam.
For a moment, it was as if I saw myself.
However, the photo is old, so it certainly couldn't be Xia Lan.
“This is my aunt, her name is Lou Wanyu. I told you you look a lot like her.”
Lou Xiuyu looked at Xia Lan and the more she looked at her, the more she resembled her cousin.
"But back then, it was a time of war and chaos. My grandfather said that for my aunt's safety, he sent her to the countryside."
"But then we lost contact with them and could never find them again."
"They were forced to move to other cities to hide, and then they lost contact with each other."
Lou Xiuyu recounted past events, how the older generation always remembered their aunt, even after her father was born.
"I don't know if I'm the person you're looking for, but my mother is indeed a young lady from the city."
“My mother went to the countryside with Grandma Wu, took Grandma Wu’s surname, and changed her name to Wu Wanyu.”
"Her original name was Lou Wanyu."
Xia Lan said to Lou Xiuyu.
"Yes, yes, that's the name."
“My dad said that my name comes from my aunt. My grandma missed my aunt so much that she fell ill. Before she passed away, she told my dad that if he had a daughter, she should also include the character “jade” in her name.”
“Originally, according to my generation, I should have been named Qin, but my father changed it to Lou Xiuyu.”
Lou Xiuyu excitedly grabbed Xia Lan's hand.
Do you have a bead like this? Or a handkerchief?
Lou Xiuyu ran back to her room and took out a handkerchief with the three characters "Lou Wanyu" embroidered on it.
Xia Lan was taken aback, then nodded slightly.
“My mom left me a letter with her past experiences written in it.”
"Oh my god, Grandpa will be so happy he'll go crazy."
Lou Xiuyu was extremely excited.
"But are you sure? Am I the person you're looking for?"
Xia Lan looked at Lou Xiuyu, who smiled and waved her hand.
"I'll never find anyone more like you."
"Your face is irrefutable proof. Do you know that the moment I saw you, I was reminded of my aunt?"
“I think this is fate, God took care of us and let us find you.”
Lou Xiuyu said excitedly.
He ran to the telephone and dialed home right in front of Xia Lan.
"What are you doing?"
A dignified voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Dad, I think I've found Aunt's daughter."
Lou Xiuyu then proceeded to tell the person on the other end of the phone about Xia Lan.
"How can you be so sure? We've been looking for more than twenty Wanyus over the years."
How can you be so sure this person is him?
The man on the other end of the phone didn't seem very interested.
"Dad, she looks exactly like Auntie!"
Lou Xiuyu said earnestly.
"……real?"
Upon hearing this, the man finally became interested.
"Really, but come and take a look."
Lou Xiuyu smiled smugly.
I'll come to your place tomorrow.
The man was about to come over.
“Bring Grandpa along with you. She said there’s a letter, and Grandpa will definitely recognize Aunt’s handwriting.”
Lou Xiuyu said to the man.
"……OK."
Upon hearing Lou Xiuyu's words, the man responded and hung up the phone.
Xia Lan heard it all clearly.
"Alright, wait until tomorrow when my dad comes, then we'll know if you're the person we're looking for!"
Although Lou Xiuyu said this, she was already certain in her heart that Xia Lan was definitely right.
"good."
Xia Lan nodded and exchanged a glance with Qin Yu.
Walking along the path in the amusement park, Xia Lan looked at Qin Yu.
Do you think it's possible?
Xia Lan wasn't sure either, but everything Lou Xiuyu had just said matched everything her mother had said.
It turns out they had never forgotten to look for their mother.
Qin Yu hugged Xia Lan.
"Whether it is or not, it won't change your life now."
Qin Yu gently patted Xia Lan's head. With him there, he was sure that nothing unexpected would happen to her, no matter what.
Even if I find my family, it won't change my current life.
"Too."
Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, Xia Lan's lips curled into a smile.
Just like Qin Yu and Qin Jun found their father, they can get along if they can, and remain friends if they can't.
Once a point of harmony is found in the relationship, the couple can continue to get along amicably.
Even without a father-son relationship, if both parties are willing, they can still get along.
The reason they could accept Qin Ming living with them so readily was for the same reason.
They're all elderly people, what's the point of arguing? Finding each other is a blessing. They've thought things through on both sides, there's no scheming involved, and they're comfortable together.
That's fine then.
Why bother worrying about gains and losses?
Relationships between people are not complicated; if both parties are sincere, they can naturally get along harmoniously.
It's just that human nature is complicated.
After Qin Yu comforted Xia Lan, she relaxed considerably.
"I never thought I'd be able to find my family too?"
Xia Lan chuckled, finding their family quite amusing.
