After hanging up the phone, Mr. Lu was still cheerful and couldn't close his mouth. When the servants around him saw it, they all laughed together and praised the eldest lady in unison.
The atmosphere in the room was harmonious, and suddenly a bright and cheerful female voice came: "Dad, my daughter is back, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Hearing this voice, everyone in the room was startled. Then the housekeeper responded and quickly went to greet him with his servants:
——The eldest lady is back!
The real eldest lady of the Lu family, the aunt of Lu Chengji and others, Lu Qiulan.
Seeing his daughter, the smile on Mr. Lu's face became even stronger, and he subconsciously said: "You still have the nerve to blame me. You went to hide on an island you don't know where and you don't answer the phone. How can I find you?"
Speaking of this, Mr. Lu seemed to have remembered something, and the joy of meeting his daughter for the first time was replaced by dissatisfaction. He groaned angrily: "Unfilial daughter, you can tell yourself, you haven't come back for many years!"
He is getting old and has not interfered with the company's affairs for many years. Mr. Lu no longer restrains his emotions and lets others see his emotions as he once did, but has become a bit like an old boy.
As he spoke, the ends of his eyes became wet.
This damn girl hasn't come back to see him for so many years, so she's not afraid of losing his old bones!
At this moment, Mr. Lu's mood was very complicated. He was happy to see his daughter, but also complained that he had not seen his daughter for many years, and there was also a hint of sadness and distress.
This girl hasn’t come out in so many years!
The disappearance of Lu Xixin that year was a heavy blow to both the Lu and Zhao families. The mother-in-law of the Zhao family gave Lu's father a beating with a cane.
If Lu's mother Zhao Minyi hadn't suffered from mental problems later, I'm afraid the two would have divorced.
At that time, Lu Chengji was still young, only 10 years old. After learning that his sister was missing, he locked himself in the room without water for three days.
How could such a young child withstand such torture? He almost didn't survive.
At that time, the Lu family was in chaos. Mr. Lu was hit hard and was bedridden. Father Lu only knew how to kneel on the ground and apologize to everyone. The Zhao family hated him so much. There was also Zhao Minyi, who was insane and could not even
Got it.
The house was a mess, and it was all thanks to Lu Qiulan to support her.
This girl, who is less than 30 years old, uses her thin shoulders to support everything.
While comforting his family, he was looking for his daughter, and he also had to find time to deal with the company's affairs.
She was silent and handled everything just right. Everyone praised her for being a woman, and said that Mr. Lu was lucky to have given birth to a capable daughter.
Praise her for being steady, calm and like a general.
However, only Mr. Lu knew that she did not dare to let herself stop, for fear that if she stopped, her whole body would collapse.
If Zhao Minyi's maternal love for her daughter is natural, then for Lu Qiulan, her daughter is her spiritual support.
When my daughter went missing, the person who was most affected was not Zhao Minyi, the biological mother, but Lu Qiulan, the aunt.
Lu Qiulan's life was quite rough. Not long after her wedding, her beloved husband died in a car accident, and she also had a miscarriage due to shock and pain.
Under the double blow, Lu Qiulan had no will to live and asked for death several times.
It was Zhao Minyi who brought her newborn daughter to her hospital bed and told her that she would be her daughter from now on.
Lu Qiulan watched the little baby stretch out its white and tender hands and catch her fingers one by one, and then she developed the will to live.
She slowly recovered and regarded Nannan as her biological daughter.
It can be said that when Nannan was a child, Lu Qiulan spent more time with her than Zhao Minyi, her own mother.
After the Lu family became stable, it was impossible to find her daughter. Lu Qiulan went abroad alone and never returned for more than ten years.
——
Also returning with Aunt Lu was a girl in her twenties, who was bright, good-looking, gentle and elegant.
When Mother Lu saw her, a kind smile appeared on her face: "This must be Yanran."
When Aunt Lu, who was talking to Mr. Lu, heard this, she slapped her forehead and said with a smile: "Look, I forgot to introduce you. This is Sheng Yanran, my goddaughter."
The Lu family have all heard of Sheng Yanran's name, but have never seen her in person.
Sheng Yanran is the daughter of Aunt Lu's assistant. The assistant has been with Aunt Lu for many years. The two have a good relationship. Aunt Lu has always liked the assistant's daughter. She has never had children in her life, so she especially likes other people's children.
No matter whose child the child is, as long as he is good-looking and has a good personality, he is willing to take a second look and support him.
Logically speaking, Sheng Yanran was just the child of an assistant, and it was impossible for her to consider Aunt Lu as her godmother. But when she was 12 years old, her assistant died of liver cancer, and she became a child without a mother.
Her biological father and her assistant mother had been divorced for many years, and her stepmother was not willing to accept her at all.
The little girl suddenly lost her mother, and her biological father was so cold and cold. Aunt Lu adopted her because she couldn't stand it anymore.
It was an ordinary kindness. Aunt Lu didn't expect the little girl to treat her as a relative. She just wanted to give her a place to stay. However, the little girl was extraordinarily up to date and was very filial and caring to Aunt Lu.
My daughter is nothing more than that.
Slowly, Aunt Lu completely accepted her.
Aunt Lu was alone abroad, and the Lu family had always been worried. Now that there was a little girl by her side, the Lu family were very happy and did not stop her.
"This child is so well born." Mother Lu lovingly grabbed Sheng Yanran's hand and praised her repeatedly, "He has a good temper and is steady."
Lu Yaqing sat next to Mother Lu, hugged Mother Lu's arm, and said coquettishly: "Mommy, you have a new person and forget the old one. You don't even remember me as your daughter."
"You're such a narrow-minded brat." Mother Lu turned around and tapped the tip of Lu Yaqing's nose, her eyes full of endearment.
Because Aunt Lu is back, the Lu family's servants are all busy, preparing lunch and tidying up the room.
Mr. Lu happily asked her: "What do you want to eat?" It wasn't that he didn't know his daughter's taste, but that her daughter had been abroad for many years and was used to eating Western food, so her taste had probably changed.
Aunt Lu: "Don't be busy. Where's Xixin? It's not that I've found my daughter back. I came back this time for her."
Her tone of voice could not conceal her excitement, and Aunt Lu almost suppressed the tears in her eyes.
After hearing this, Sheng Yanran, who was sitting next to her, lowered her eyes, her long and fluttering eyelashes hiding the emotions in her eyes.
Sheng Yanran has always been concerned about this matter while abroad, not because she was really curious about Lu Xixin or caring about her, but because she had no choice, because even if she didn't want to know any news about Lu Xixin, someone would always remind her in her ear.
Sheng Yanran is Aunt Lu's goddaughter and was adopted by Aunt Lu, but in fact her household registration is not with the Lu family, but with her biological father.
Children whose father is alive are not orphans and are not eligible for adoption.
Although Aunt Lu liked her, she didn't go to great lengths to transfer her household registration here.
After all, once your household registration is transferred, you are eligible to inherit the Lu family.
Aunt Lu has no children. Even though Sheng Yanran's household registration has not been transferred here, she has been with Aunt Lu for many years and Aunt Lu only raised her one child. She will definitely give her a large inheritance in the future.
But things are different now. The child that Aunt Lu loves dearly, Lu Xixin, is back!
