Chapter 825 Mrs. Xue's Predicament

Chapter 825: Chapter 825 Mrs. Xue’s Predicament

Mrs. Xue had had enough of toiling away every day in Righteous Dao Village, and now that hope was within sight, she wanted to cling to it tightly.

But she was well aware that Shu Yu didn’t like her at all. Even if she went to beg her, Shu Yu wouldn’t care about her; instead, it might even bring more trouble.

However, it didn’t matter. If Shu Yu wouldn’t do, she could find someone else.

Mrs. Xue stayed quiet and had not shared her plan with the Shu family.

When night fell, she took advantage of everyone being unobservant and quietly slipped out of the house.

At the moment, Shu Yu was escorting her parents to rest up at the manor; the Lu family’s rooms were insufficient, so Lu Erbai and the others stayed at the manor as before.

Zhao Xi and Meng Yunzheng, who were living with them, now found it inconvenient to stay at the Lu family’s house.

Shu Yu and Daya saw them off to the manor, then Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi turned around to escort them back home.

Shu Yu, “…” Well, that seemed to be okay.

She and Lu Erbai waved their hands, “Father, Mother, you should rest early. If anything comes up, just find Brother Wang.”

“We know, you head back now.”

Watching the four of them leave, Madam Ruan was quite emotional, “Yunzheng is indeed a good person. Now that Yu can return to her homeland, shouldn’t their marriage be put on the agenda?”

Lu Erbai thought it over, “No rush, Yu hasn’t had her coming-of-age ceremony yet.”

“That’s true, you should wait until the coming-of-age ceremony before discussing that.” Besides, they hadn’t even met Young Master Meng’s family members yet.

As they talked, they shut the front door and turned around to head back to the courtyard to rest.

But who would have thought that just after taking a few steps, there came a knock at the door.

The couple looked at each other, “Could it be that Yu forgot something?”

While speaking, Lu Erbai opened the front door.

To his surprise, there was an unfamiliar woman standing outside; he was taken aback for a moment, “Whom are you looking for?”

“Are you Yu’s parents? You are Lu Erbai and his wife, right?”

“Who are you?” Lu Erbai became immediately alert. Even though the other person looked quite bedraggled and harmless, when he heard her mention Yu, he instinctively took a small step backward.

“I am Yu’s foster mother.”

Yu’s foster mother?

The faces of Lu Erbai and Madam Ruan changed dramatically, and anger sparked in their eyes, “You are that Madam Xue who mistreated my daughter? You still have the audacity to come here?”

Seeing them get angry, Mrs. Xue quickly said, “Big brother, sister-in-law, don’t be hasty. I know I was wrong before, but I had my difficulties. Please listen to my explanation.”

“Difficulties? No matter how difficult, it’s no excuse for you to mistreat my daughter.” Madam Ruan’s eyes reddened, she looked around, even thinking about grabbing something nearby to strike her with.

Mrs. Xue hurriedly spoke, “But if I hadn’t treated her like that, she would have been dead.”

Lu Erbai and Madam Ruan were stunned, then heard Mrs. Xue continue to speak, “I don’t know what Yu has told you, but there are some things I never had the chance to tell her. Now that I know she has been appointed as the Village Chief, we may never meet again. If I don’t speak up now, our mother-daughter relationship will carry this misunderstanding and regret for a lifetime.”

She didn’t give Lu Erbai a chance to interject, while wiping away tears, she went on, “Since she was young, Yu was the prettiest one in the Shu family. I really especially liked her and have truly treated her as my own daughter, not just me, but our Head Master did too. A beautiful and well-mannered child, who wouldn’t like her? Isn’t that right?”
