The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 33: My Name is Lu Shuyu

As Lu Dasong spoke, he looked at Madam Ruan with a serious expression, “Second sister-in-law, Are you sure that she’s really Erya?”

“I’m sure, very sure,” Madam Ruan nodded hurriedly and held on tightly to Shu Yu. She looked at Lu Dasong with a strong sense of vigilance, afraid that he would say something along the lines of asking Shu Yu to leave.

Lu Dasong had wanted to say something, but he choked back his words when he saw this. He could only say awkwardly, “That’s good then. It’s good that you’ve found her. After so many years, our family is finally reunited. Then… We’ll take our leave for now. Since you’ve just reunited, you must have a lot to say. Later when mother and Second Lu come back, we can gather again.”

Of course, he hoped that the girl before him was Erya. All these years, he had seen with his own eyes how his second brother’s life had changed from being relatively well-off to what it was now.

His second brother had always been willing to work. When he was young, he had been accepted as an apprentice because of his reliability. After he graduated as an apprentice and got married, he earned the most among the three brothers. His wife was also hardworking. It could be said that before Erya was stolen, Second Lu had the best life among the three brothers.

At that time, they had a good relationship as brothers. But after that, Second Lu insisted on finding Erya. One or two years was nothing, but this search took more than ten years. Who could withstand such torment? It didn’t take long for Second Lu’s house to become increasingly dilapidated, and he had to borrow money everywhere.

Lu Dasong had a family of his own, and his wife was already unhappy after lending some money once. At that time, their mother had been living with him, the eldest son. Yet, the old lady always used her rations to help her second son. As a result, his wife and his mother quarreled a few times, and the latter ended up living with her second son.

The two brothers naturally distanced themselves from each other and had very little interaction with each other.

At the thought of this, Lu Dasong couldn’t help but sigh. He looked at Shu Yu, “Er…” Looking at her face, he just couldn’t say the name “Erya” no matter what.

“Just call me Shu Yu. I’m Lu Shuyu,” Shu Yu was her name before she transmigrated. Back in the Shu family, she was called “Shu Yu” too, but although the pronunciation was the same, it was a different word.

Madam Ruan’s face lit up when she heard what she said. Erya had just said that her surname was Lu.

Lu Dasong could not help but raise his eyebrows and smile, “Alright, Shu Yu, then you have a good chat with your mother. They haven’t given up on looking for you all these years. We’ll be leaving now.”

With that, Lu Dasong called Lu Sanzhu and his wife to leave.

Lu Sanzhu was unwilling to do so, “Big brother, I’ll stay here and work on my relationship with my niece.”

Lu Dasong frowned, “What relationship? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Come out with me.”

“No, big brother, I’m very sincere.”

Lu Dasong simply disregarded Lu Sanzhu. He grabbed the latter by the collar and walked out.

Lu Sanzhu was usually a sly and sneaky person who didn’t like to do work. He couldn’t compare to Lu Dasong, who spent most of his time doing heavy work in the fields. After struggling several times, he couldn’t break free. He could only be dragged out of the courtyard.

Madam Liang looked at Shu Yu and the others, then at her husband who was taken away. She stomped her foot and said, “Second sister-in-law, we’ll go back first. We’ll come to see our niece another day.”

Just like that, the three of them left Second Lu’s house one after another.

Several villagers were loitering outside the courtyard. They kept craning their necks to peer, extremely curious about the long-lost daughter of the Lu family.

In particular, Shu Yu didn’t seem to be in dire straits. All of them felt that Second Lu’s happiness was about to come after all the suffering and he was about to strike it rich.

When they saw Lu Dasong come out, all of them pretended that they weren’t busybodies and looked at different spots, like up at the sky, down at the ground, or the corner of the wall.
