Luo Yan couldn't sleep all night because of Hua Li's antics...
Hua Li would cry and scream after less than half an hour of sleep, calling out Luo Yan's name as if she were about to die. Only when Luo Yan coaxed her, talking and singing, could she continue to sleep.
After one night, Luo Yan felt like she had lost half her life.
In the morning, Hua Li finally fell into a deep sleep, and Luo Yan thought she could finally get some sleep, but then Xia Suya got up again...
So, the kids are so hard on the adults, they're exhausted from trying to coax the kids every day.
However, she couldn't let all the hard work go to waste, so she took Xia Suya's hand and pointed to the door with her little finger, wanting to go out.
Just then, Sun Bailing sent Aunt Shi over to help with the housework. Xia Suya opened the door, Aunt Shi came in, and Luo Yan led the way to the notice board in the courtyard.
Apology letters from Liu Jingqiu and An Xiaotong were posted on the bulletin board. Luo Yan pointed to the letters, "Mom, Mom..."
It's not that I, a little toddler of just over three years old, am particularly shrewd; it's just that my mom comes here to check on me every day, and I've remembered it.
Xia Suya pushed up her glasses and read through the two apology letters word by word.
Xia Suya was furious that her daughter-in-law and granddaughter had suffered so much injustice behind her back.
Luo Yan raised her little face and saw the cold light shooting out from Xia Suya's narrow phoenix eyes, which were just like her father's. She knew that this tattling had been successful.
Grandma seems quite wary of Dad, so whether she can avenge Mom is still unknown.
Xia Suya picked up Luo Yan and pointed to Liu Jingqiu's name on the apology letter, asking...
"Yanyan, where does this person live?"
She had never had a good impression of the Liu family's adopted daughter since she was a child. As a result, instead of causing trouble back home, the adopted daughter came to Jiangcheng to bully her daughter-in-law and granddaughter. Did she really think the Luo family was easy to bully?
After Liu Jingqiu moved out of the compound, she didn't know where to live. But she couldn't hide forever. Luo Yan stared blankly at the apology letter, looking like she didn't understand.
Forget it, a three-year-old child can't understand, so Xia Suya decided to take Luo Yan back to ask Hua Li.
Luo Yan twisted her little body to get down, Xia Suya put Luo Yan down, and Luo Yan took Xia Suya's hand and walked towards the east courtyard.
Xia Suya followed Luo Yan to the side gate. Luo Yan pointed to the gate, and Xia Suya pushed it open and continued walking inside.
Xiao Xiu came out of the house with her schoolbag on her back and looked up to see Luo Yan walking towards her with Xia Suya in the morning sun.
He rubbed his eyes, and sure enough, it was Luo Yan! Xiao Xiu rushed to Luo Yan, hugged her tightly, and his heart pounded wildly.
Luo Yan hugged Xiao Xiu back, listening to Xiao Xiu's rapid heartbeat and feeling the dampness on her shoulder. For some reason, she felt a little guilty.
Xia Suya looked at Xiao Xiu, who was crying her eyes out while holding Luo Yan, and squatted down to ask Xiao Xiu a question.
"You must be Xiao Xiu?"
Xiao Xiu looked up at Xia Suya's face, which bore a five-point resemblance to Luo Shicheng's, and nodded while sniffing.
Luo Yan waited for Xiao Xiu to let go of her hand before taking it and calling out, "Brother, brother..."
Xia Suya looked at Xiao Xiu clearly and her eyes were full of surprise. "Are you surnamed Cheng?"
Xiao Xiu's eyes were filled with terror as he shook his head frantically.
"Aren't you Dehuai from Cheng Yi's family?"
Despair flashed in Xiao Xiu's eyes, and he looked at Xia Suya as if she were a demon about to snatch away a lamb.
Luo Yan noticed that Xiao Xiu was scared and couldn't help but regret bringing Xia Suya to the East Courtyard.
Xia Suya noticed Xiaoxiu's resistance. "Don't you want to go home?"
Xiao Xiu was completely dazed, but she still heard Xia Suya's question clearly. Her big, tearful eyes reflected Xia Suya's kind face, and she nodded mechanically.
"Why?" Ever since Cheng Dehuai went missing, the Cheng family has been searching frantically for their child, and now Cheng Dehuai is telling her he doesn't want to go home?
"Grandma, brother."
Luo Yan hugged Xiao Xiu again, tears streaming down her face.
Regardless of Xiaoxiu's reasons for not wanting to go home, she had to side with Xiaoxiu, and Xia Suya, as her family member, couldn't undermine her.
Xia Suya pondered, "Baby, your mother has been sick ever since you went missing, and your father has been punished several times for not caring about you and searching everywhere for you. If this continues, his future will be ruined."
Grandma promises to tell your parents you're doing well, but if you don't agree, Grandma won't tell them you're here, okay?
Even if Xiao Xiu doesn't want to go back, he should at least let his parents know he's safe.
Xiao Xiu still shook his head, his resistance was very obvious.
Luo Yan recalled the situation when she encountered Xiao Xiu and worried that if she pushed her too far, Xiao Xiu would run away, so she patted Xia Suya.
"Bad boy, bad boy..."
Xia Suya frowned. "No swearing."
Luo Yan was speechless. She wasn't cursing her grandmother; she was saying that there were bad people in Xiao Xiu's family.
Luo Yan patted Xiao Xiu, "Naughty, naughty!"
After saying that, Luo Yan hugged Xiao Xiu protectively.
Luo Yan said something mean, "If she wasn't insulting me, then she must be saying there are bad people in Xiao Xiu's family." Xia Suya's expression turned serious as she asked Xiao Xiu.
"Was it your family that caused you to get lost?"
Xiao Xiu nodded.
Xia Suya finally noticed the problem, "Can't you speak?"
Xia Suya had met Xiaoxiu before. Although the child didn't talk much, he spoke clearly. She wondered what kind of suffering he had endured to the point that he couldn't even speak anymore. Xia Suya's eyes were filled with pity.
"Don't worry, Grandma will let your parents know you're safe as soon as she gets back. If they don't find out who hurt you, Grandma will never tell them where you are."
Xiao Xiu's eyes lit up immediately. He released Luo Yan and bowed deeply to Xia Suya.
"You're still as polite as ever..."
Xia Suya pulled Xiaoxiu into her arms and hugged her. "Don't worry, Grandma will definitely stand up for you."
After Xiao Xiu was reassured, she wiped away her tears and stayed close to Luo Yan with a smile on her face.
When Chen Yuanshan drove over and saw her, he quickly got out of the car to greet Xia Suya.
Yesterday, when Xia Suya came to Jiangcheng, Sun Bailing personally picked her up, and Chen Yuanshan, who was in charge of driving, naturally knew Xia Suya as well.
Hearing Xia Suya say that she knew Xiao Xiu, Chen Yuanshan was very happy for Xiao Xiu. But when Xia Suya said that Xiao Xiu was particularly reluctant to go home, he said seriously.
“Xiao Xiu is an exceptionally sensible child. Since Xiao Xiu doesn’t want to go back, there must be a big problem at home. Aunt Xia, my suggestion is to ask the organization to investigate the specific reasons why Xiao Xiu got lost before deciding whether or not to let Xiao Xiu go back.”
If Xiaoxiu's family truly has problems, I will adopt him until he reaches adulthood.
Xia Suya nodded, then remembered something and asked Chen Yuanshan.
"Xiao Chen, do you know where Liu Jingqiu and An Xiaotong live?"
Seeing Xia Suya's expression, Chen Yuanshan knew that she was like a mother hen protecting her chicks, and scratched his head in distress.
Luo Yan saw Liu Jingqiu walking over with An Xiaotong by the hand and quickly pointed him out to Xiao Xiu.
When Xiao Xiu saw this, he immediately tugged at Xia Suya's sleeve.
Xia Suya looked down and Xiao Xiu pointed to the other side of the road. Xia Suya looked over and saw a mother and daughter dressed in brand-new dresses walking by, glaring at her eldest granddaughter.
Xia Suya immediately recognized Liu Jingqiu, whom she hadn't seen for many years, and walked straight over to her, using her height advantage to look down on him.
"Liu Jingqiu, is this your daughter, An Xiaotong?"
