Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path-Chapter 887: Strange
At the same time, Mr. Su’s life indeed reached the pinnacle of misfortune.
He followed the clues given by Grandma Yao and continued to investigate, only to end up at the same place as before, facing the same people.
It seemed like he was trapped in a vicious cycle, unable to escape.
Seeing the situation going awry, Su Ziqiao decisively brought the old man back.
Originally, Mr. Su was supposed to return to Qin City, but seeing the old man so devastated, Ziqiao worried that something might happen, so he decisively drove towards Capital City.
The old man was so angry that he cursed all the way.
On the way back, he didn’t want to talk to this grandson at all.
"Grandpa, I feel there’s something strange about this," Su Ziqiao said, looking at the upset old man, "Do you think it might be the case?"
"How come it’s such a coincidence? We almost found out that Lingling is my cousin, and then suddenly there’s news of Grandma."
He wouldn’t believe it if someone said there wasn’t something odd about this.
"You brat, what exactly are you trying to say? Just tell me directly," Su Changsheng glared at him and said.
"Why did you adopt Su Rumei back then?" Su Ziqiao didn’t answer the question, but instead asked another one.
"Back then, huh." Mr. Su fell into deep thought.
"She was the granddaughter of your grandma’s maid," said Mr. Su.
As for that maid, it was Little Butterfly, whom he had expelled back then. He didn’t know that after he drove her out, Little Butterfly ended up working as a maid for an official’s daughter.
At that time, the country had just been liberated, but the domestic situation was still very severe, with a large number of spies lurking.
Once, when he was on a mission, he accidentally walked into an ambush, and it was his adjutant who took a bullet for him. This adjutant was Su Rumei’s father, and before he died, he entrusted his only daughter to him.
When Su Changsheng found Su Rumei, he discovered that she was Little Butterfly’s daughter.
His adjutant had never told him that the woman he married was the very one he had driven out back then, Little Butterfly.
Working as a servant in the official’s house was no good for Little Butterfly. She was bullied constantly, and later, after something happened to that family, she ended up on the streets and was rescued by his adjutant.
The adjutant had seen Little Butterfly before at the Su house and had always had some interest in her. Eventually, they got together.
By the time Su Changsheng got there, Little Butterfly had died, leaving only this little girl.
The little girl looked at him with pitiful wide eyes, instantly reminding Mr. Su of Tian Wanfeng. If she had had a daughter and encountered such a situation...
He thought he would want someone to lend a helping hand and save his daughter.
With this thought in mind, as if doing a good deed to accumulate blessings for his daughter whom he had never met, Su Changsheng brought Su Rumei back to the Su Family.
The adjutant’s surname was already Su, and Su Rumei’s name wasn’t one he gave her; she had been called that all her life.
Speaking of names, Su Changsheng remembered Grandma Yao’s words, that Ruqian, Rumei, and Rulan were names Tian Wanfeng had chosen before she got married. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
Her child was named Ruqian, Little Butterfly and Little Qiao’s children were named Rumei and Rulan, respectively.
It was a pity that his good deed had him raising someone else’s child for a lifetime, while his own child had already passed away early.
Thinking of this, Su Changsheng wept bitterly.
