Chapter 323: Chapter 323 She Lost Her Daughter
As she was about to leave the room, she happened to run into Aunt i coming back!
Seeing the scene before her, Aunt i imdiately dropped the books she was holding and rushed over to Ye Shu, her voice trembling, “What’s happened to you, where are you hurt?”
Da Li said, “Aunt i, Ye Shu got cut by a piece of broken flowerpot, you should take a look at her, please.”
“Cut by a flowerpot, oh dear, how could you be so careless?” Aunt i quickly grabbed a first aid kit from the shelf and opened it.
Ye Shu noticed that the small box contained everything: gauze, hemostatic ointnt, narrow mouth scissors, bandages, all neatly arranged. It was clear at a glance that Aunt i was a person with an orderly life.
But why didn’t such a person plan her remaining life better? Why choose to stay behind these high walls to continue “serving”?
Noticing that Ye Shu seed to be daydreaming, Aunt i instantly beca compassionate, “Xiao Shu, co over here and sit down. If you’re a girl and don’t handle this promptly, you’ll be left with scars.”
“Okay, thank you, Aunt i.” Ye Shu sat down and quietly accepted everything Aunt i was doing for her, like an obedient child, staring intently at Aunt i’s face.
Ten minutes later, Aunt i cut off the bandage tied with a butterfly knot and instructed, “Alright, rember not to touch running water, okay? Eat less fried and spicy food for the next few days. If you can take ti off, do so.”
“Okay, thank you, Aunt i, you’re really kind,” Ye Shu sweetly expressed her thanks.
“What are you thanking for, Xiao Shu. This prison is like a big furnace. Serving ti here is like being reforged. So people are bound to be lacking in temperant and character. You all need to be more cautious in the future, understand?”
As Aunt i spoke, she noticed Ye Shu was looking closely at her and subconsciously averted her gaze, “Alright, you go back first. If there’s anything else you need my help with in the future, don’t hesitate to ask, okay?”
“Aunt i, may I ask you a question?” Ye Shu couldn’t help but point at the photo, “That baby is so cute; I really like her. Is she your relative?”
“She’s my daughter…” Aunt i revealed a contented smile as she spoke, “She should be about your age now.”
“Daughter?” Da Li was a bit surprised and asked, “Aunt i, you have a daughter? When they asked you before, you didn’t say. Where is your daughter now? Why doesn’t she co to visit you?”
“My daughter, she…” Aunt i took the photo in her hand, looked down at it, her emotions overwheld her, and she choked, “It’s my fault, I lost her…”
Seeing Aunt i suddenly beco sad, Ye Shu put aside the pain in her hand and gently gave Aunt i a warm hug, “Don’t cry, Aunt i. If your daughter is still in this world, you’ll et again when the ti cos.”
“Okay, I won’t cry anymore…” Aunt i gently pulled away from Ye Shu’s embrace, wiped her tears, and offered an awkward smile, “I’m sorry, Xiao Shu, to make such a scene.”
“Don’t say that, Aunt i. You’re so nice. If you’re willing, take as your goddaughter. From now on, I’ll call you ‘Mom,’ is that alright?”
Aunt i was stunned for a long ti before managing to say with teary eyes, “Okay, okay. Then from now on, we shall regard each other as mother and daughter.”
“Mm, Mom!” Ye Shu opened her arms once more for a hug.
“My dear daughter,” Aunt i also held Ye Shu tightly in her arms, her tears of happiness streaming unrestrained down her aged face…
