Chen Zu An and Cheng Qiuqiao looked at each other when they heard Xiang Xiuxi's words. If the baby was Brother Tree, then Lü Shu's life was a bit rough. Why did he have to hunt down an orphan?
This was a little confusing. They had thought that Lü Shu was just casually looking for his background, but now it seemed that this matter was not simple at all.
Lü Shu thought for a moment and asked, "Were the gourd next to the baby and the swaddling clothes originally in the box?"
"Yes." Xiang Xiuxi said, "There was also a note, which said that Lü Shu was the child's name. There was nothing else. However, the gourd looked very exquisite, but it was cracked, as if someone had smashed it. There was also a black pendant on the baby's neck, but it was strange that the pendant couldn't be removed. I don't know what material the pendant was made of, but it was just wrapped around the baby's neck and couldn't be cut … I don't know which bastard stole the gourd and the swaddling clothes in the middle of the night. "
The more Xiang Xiuxi said, the angrier she became. "That thing that gave birth to a child didn't … steal things from a child. Is he still human?!"
Li Dian, who was next to her, became more and more embarrassed. His face seemed to be burning!
Lü Shu thought silently. The information that Xiang Xiuxi had told him matched what Li Dian had said. The gourd did have cracks in the past, and it only recovered after the Spirit Qi Revival.
He thought that this crack might have been caused by a battle, and the black pendant on his neck was obviously more important, so no one could steal it even if they wanted to.
Lü Shu believed that Li Dian must have tried to steal the pendant back then, but he just didn't manage to steal it …
Lü Shu suddenly thought of something and asked, "What about the box?!"
If even diapers could be a treasure, would the box containing the baby also be a treasure?
"It was sold." Xiang Xiuxi said, "A street collector took a fancy to it and sold it for a lot of money, a few hundred yuan."
Lü Shu looked at Xiang Xiuxi calmly for a long time. She sold it for just a few hundred yuan?
No, a few hundred yuan in the 90s was not a small amount. Who took the box?
It would be difficult to investigate this matter now, but Lü Shu had no regrets. All he wanted to know now was the truth.
"Big sister, how long have you been raising the baby?" Lü Shu asked, "Are you continuing to raise it or …?"
"At first, I wanted to raise him myself, but with his sickly appearance, I don't think I can raise him." Xiang Xiuxi said, "I was still a virgin at that time. It was not a good idea to adopt a child all of a sudden. What if I can't get married? Moreover, with my salary, it would be hard for me to feed myself … "
Lü Shu looked at Xiang Xiuxi's figure and thought, 'Isn't she taking good care of me …'
Lü Shu asked curiously, "How long have you been raising him? Where did you send him?"
"I don't remember how long it was. The baby's health was too poor. One night, I was watching TV with him in my arms, but he suddenly stopped breathing and had a heartbeat." Xiang Xiuxi said, "I panicked at that time. But before I could figure out what to do, he came back to life again. I thought to myself that I couldn't go on like this. I really didn't have the money to treat him, so I might as well send him out. I didn't give him to anyone else. I just left him at the door of an orphanage. "
Lü Shu nodded. It turned out that Xiang Xiuxi had adopted him for a few months, and then sent him to the orphanage because of these reasons.
At this point, it seemed that everything was right. The "puzzle" in Lü Shu's heart was once again complete.
"Big sister, thank you," Lü Shu said sincerely.
Xiang Xiuxi smiled and waved her hand, "I just asked some questions. There is no need to thank me."
"I still have to thank you." Lü Shu smiled and then turned to leave.
Lü Xiaoyu thought for a while, took out stacks of cash and even four gold bars from his Space Ring, and put them in front of Xiang Xiuxi, "Thank you."
There were originally people watching from the prefab house, but they exploded when they saw this scene. When this group of people came, everyone thought that they might have a powerful background, but they didn't think too much about it. They just wanted to watch the fun.
Now, when the hundreds of thousands of cash and gold bars were taken out, everyone was shocked.
The rich people had already found their own way out. Most of the people who were still in the prefab house were from ordinary families, so it was inevitable that they were a little shocked when they saw this scene.
Chen Zu An and Cheng Qiuqiao glanced at the onlookers, then took out their IDs, "Tengra Earth Net is working. Don't think about this money, or you will know the consequences."
Xiang Xiuxi was stunned for a while, and suddenly realized something. "That young man just now was the child I adopted?!"
That was the only way to explain it. Otherwise, why would the other party give her so much money just to ask a few questions?
Chen Zu An chuckled and said, "Big sister, that is our Tengra Earth Net's ninth Tengra. How good it would have been if you hadn't given him away."
Lü Xiaoyu glanced at Chen Zu An, "What nonsense are you talking about? Even if I only raised him for a few months, it is still a great favor."
Moreover, if Xiang Xiuxi hadn't sent Lü Shu to the orphanage, how would Lü Xiaoyu have met Lü Shu …
Lü Xiaoyu gave her 500,000 in cash, of which 250,000 was to thank Xiang Xiuxi for raising Lü Shu, and the other 250,000 and gold bars were to thank Xiang Xiuxi for sending Lü Shu to the orphanage …
When the onlookers heard Chen Zu An's words, they were dumbfounded. Nowadays, the masters in the cultivation world were like stars, and their ninth Tengra Lü Shu had already become famous all over the world. The destruction of Deities Market, the wedding of the century in Europe, and the battle of Tiger Back Fortress had already spread like a storytelling.
Everyone looked at Xiang Xiuxi. It turned out that the ninth Tengra was an orphan, and he had been adopted by this big sister …
Wait, if the young man just now was the ninth Tengra Lü Shu, then the little girl who was willing to take out so much cash and gold bars to thank Xiang Xiuxi must be the legendary eleventh Tengra Lü Xiaoyu …
In fact, even the members of Tengra Earth Net had not realized that the common people were actually as interested in them as they were in chasing after their idols.
Xiang Xiuxi stood there in a daze and suddenly began to wipe away her tears. "Don't blame me. If it wasn't for the fact that I couldn't live on, why would I send him away again? This world is so hard. It's good enough that I can support myself. You can take the money away, but I don't want it."
Lü Xiaoyu sighed and said, "Big sister, no one will blame you. This is really a thank you. If it weren't for you, he might have died on the first day he was placed there. You are a kind-hearted person."
After that, Lü Xiaoyu and Chen Zu An left. Yes, this world was too hard. It was because of this hardship that Lü Xiaoyu admired Xiang Xiuxi's courage in bringing Lü Shu back to raise him.
