C696 It Reminds Me of a Person

The next morning the sun was bright and the weather was very good.

Yan Shu packed up and looked for the address given by Chiang Zhengyu.

Ou Xuesong's parents lived in an ordinary residential area in the south of the city.

Yan Shu followed the building and quickly found their home.

The person who opened the door was a white-haired old man in his 70s.

The old man was in good spirits and his eyes were full of vigor. He looked at Yan Shu who was outside the door and was stunned.

Seeing him like this, Yan Shu's eyes flashed and she was not in a hurry to speak.

Could it be that he recognized her?

About ten seconds later, the old man seemed to have seen wrongly. He shook his head and asked Yan Shu doubtfully, "Who are you? Is something the matter?"

"My father and Uncle Ou are friends." Yan Shu smiled at the old man and explained, "Our family moved overseas more than 20 years ago and only came back last month."

"When my dad was having a gathering with his friends, he found out that Uncle Ou had passed away a long time ago. Today I came to City L to do some business. He asked me to come and see you on his behalf."

Seeing Yan Shu mention her deceased son, Master Ou's eyes couldn't help but turn red, "Your dad is really thoughtful. He still remembers his old friend's father."

He invited Yan Shu into the house, poured a cup of water, and passed it to her.

"Thank you." Yan Shu took the cup and smiled as she asked the old man, "Where's your wife? Did she go out to buy groceries?"

Master Ou was silent for a moment and sighed, "She is dead."

Yan Shu was stunned.

From the information given by Chiang Zhengyu, she only knew that Ou Xuesong's parents moved to City L more than 20 years ago.

She didn't know that Ou Xuesong's mother died.

Master Ou sat down on the sofa beside Yan Shu and said with a dull look, "Back then, my son and daughter-in-law both got into a car accident and it was a big blow to my wife. She was sick."

"I brought her to City L and hoped that she would not think so much about it, but it did not work..."

"Less than a year after coming to City L, she lost her mind..."

Master Ou had lost his son and daughter-in-law in a year. His wife had died, and he had aged a lot. He didn't have the mood to marry anymore. He lived alone.

Yan Shu glanced at this warm but empty house and felt a little sad.

She drank two mouthfuls of water and pretended to ask the old man casually, "I heard that your daughter-in-law gave birth to a child. After she and Uncle Ou died, did the child not be raised for you?"

She knew that she was not her biological daughter and that it might be the child of Ou Xuesong and his wife. She kept thinking about it.

If she was their child, how did she get to the side of the Mother of Feast?

Master Ou sighed, "That child died before the full moon. Ah Song said it was acute pharyngitis. The doctor did not save him."

"If the child was still around, my wife would not be depressed even if she had a wish."

Yan Shu was stunned when she heard that.

She suppressed the countless questions in her heart and chatted with Master Ou for a while. Master Ou even took out a photo of Ou Xuesong and his wife for her to see.

While Master Ou was not paying attention, Yan Shu found a strand of hair on the pillow and wrapped it up with a tissue.2

When it was noon, Yan Shu said that her cooking was not bad and wanted to make a lunch for him. Master Ou agreed with a smile and brought Yan Shu to the market to buy vegetables.

After buying the vegetables, Yan Shu put on an apron and cooked a table of home-cooked dishes.

Master Ou ate the dishes that Yan Shu made and praised her cooking, "Little girl, the dishes you make are too delicious. It reminds me of a person."

Yan Shu placed the orange juice in front of him and asked with a smile, "Is it your wife?"

"No, it's..." Master Ou frowned and thought for a while. However, he was old and his brain was not working, so he could not remember.
