2722 Chapter 2722-daughter-in-law
“Not long ago, my family just held a funeral for me. I’m fifteen this year.” Shu Yan said.
....
Dongxue looked at Shu Yan in surprise. It seemed that this girl had forgotten everything that had happened in the past ten years.
“Miss Shu, what I’m going to say next might not be something you can accept right away, but you must know.” Gu Xin looked at Shu Yan’s face and paid attention to her emotions. She planned to speak slowly and stop once she felt that something was wrong.
Gu Xin remembered that her sister and grandma Xiao had told her that the human brain was the most complicated part of the human body. If the brain was injured, all sorts of situations could occur.
Ten years ago, Shu Yan had an injury on the back of her head. After she was accidentally picked up by Zhang Lius.h.i.+, she had lost her memory when she woke up and couldn’t remember anything about herself.
And now, she was accidentally pushed down by fatty w.a.n.g and hurt her forehead. After she woke up, she remembered what happened ten years ago, but she couldn’t remember the ten years that she had spent.
Gu Xin had always believed in Gu Nian’s words. Of course, she also believed in grandma Xiao’s words. After all, grandma Xiao had taught her many things.
Judging from Shu Yan’s current state, wasn’t the human brain a very complicated structure?
“Third miss Gu, please speak.” Shu Yan was a little nervous. She felt that she had overlooked something important, but she couldn’t remember.
“Miss Shu, your coming-of-age ceremony was held by your family ten years ago.” Gu Xin said.
She felt that she had to first let people know that it was ten years later and not ten years ago as she remembered.
Shu Yan was stunned. Gu Xin was waiting for her to digest this matter.
“Third miss Gu, You must be joking! How could this be? “Why would I be in a daze?” Shu Yan muttered after a long time.
“I’m not joking, I’m telling the truth. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the people in the inn what year it is. You can say that Dongxue and I colluded to tease you, but I can’t collude with everyone. Also, today is our first time meeting. Does miss Shu think I would joke with someone I just met?” Gu Xin said seriously. After a pause, she continued, ” and your cousin w.a.n.g Shoucheng. If it was ten years ago, do you think I would be friends with him at my age? ”
Shu Yan shook her head. She felt that her head was hurting again.
“Miss Shu, don’t think too much. Will you listen to me? Your father will arrive in Tongzhou tonight or tomorrow morning. It’s okay if you don’t know me or believe me. But you’ll definitely know your father, right? You’ll know if I’m telling the truth then. But now, there are some things that I must tell you. I’m worried that when you see your father and he tells you about the situation, you’ll be too emotional and it won’t be good for your head. I’ll tell you first so that you’ll be able to have some confidence. When you see your father again, you’ll be able to control your emotions.” Gu Xin explained.
“Alright, third miss Gu, I’ll believe you for now.” Shu Yan took a few deep breaths to calm herself down and finally decided to let Gu Xin finish.
“I don’t know how you came to Tongzhou. When I saw you, you didn’t remember anything. The woman who was with you said that you were her daughter-in-law. Ten years ago, you were was.h.i.+ng clothes by the river in the village and you floated down from upstream. She reported it to the authorities, but no one came to acknowledge you. So, she could only raise you in her house.” Gu Xin said.
“S-daughter-in-law?” Shu Yan was frightened by this ident.i.ty, and his face turned even paler.
