Chapter 116: Go Home
Chapter 116
Under Shen Yu's watchful eyes, Gu Huaian only exchanged a few words with Shen Tang.
He told himself in his heart that this was his little uncle, he could not hit him.
After tidying up his things, Shen Tang waved to Gu Huaian, "I'll stay for a few days and come back."
"Well, I'll wait for you."
Gu Huaian vaguely felt in his heart that she probably wouldn't come back so easily. He saw that little rascal Shen Yu.
There were not many people in the Shen family, just Shen Yu's family and his grandmother alone.
When Shen Tang arrived, her grandmother had already been waiting at the door for who knows how long, with her caregiver beside her trying to persuade her, but grandmother shook her head.
Seeing Shen Tang, her eyes lit up, "Tangtang, Tangtang..."
Shen Tang felt sour in her heart. She put down her suitcase and walked over, squatting gently in front of her, "Grandma."
Grandmother's hand gently fell on Shen Tang's face, not daring to use any strength, as if afraid of hurting her.
As she stroked, her eyes turned red, and her voice became choked up: "Good child, good child..."
"Grandma, it's too cold, let me push you inside."
"Okay."
Shen Tang pushed the wheelchair, Shen Yu pushed the suitcase behind.
On the way in, Shen Tang kept chatting with her grandmother. This little old lady was really cute.
An old child is an old child. Don't say, when people get old, they're as easy to coax as a child.
Shen Tang directly brought her skills in taking care of children into full play and coaxed her grandmother into smiling from ear to ear.
Shen Yu's eyes turned red behind her. How long had it been since he had seen his grandmother so happy?
The Shen's house was not big, but it was still a small villa. Inside the house, Shen Boyuan and his wife were busy cooking up a storm in the kitchen.
Hearing the sound, Shen Boyuan poked his head out to look over, his hands still stirring the wok without stopping, "Tangtang is back, sit down quickly, the food will be ready soon."
Shen Tang was somewhat surprised and asked Shen Yu sideways: "Uncle can actually cook!"
It wasn't that men couldn't cook, it was just that Shen Tang had done some research beforehand. The impression Shen Boyuan gave to others was that he was a aloof master who seemed not to be worldly, she didn't expect him to be so down to earth.
"Yes, he is very good at cooking, just doesn't do it often. Sister Tangtang, you're lucky today."
Shen Yu said, glancing at the kitchen, and muttered softly, "Don't be fooled by his appearance. He actually lies on the sofa like a old man usually, and is too lazy."
A shout of anger suddenly came from the kitchen: "Shen Yu, are you talking bad about me again!"
Shen Yu's eyes widened: "No way, I was so quiet he could still hear me?"
At this time, Shen Lady walked out, untying her apron and smiling as she explained, "Whenever he has the slightest headache or sneeze, he feels it's you scolding him."
Shen Tang couldn't help but chuckle.
Shen Yu was a little speechless. Although he often grumbled and complained in private, he didn't know everything was blamed on him.
Shen Lady took Shen Tang upstairs, "Your room has always been kept here, come and see if you like it, don't be shy to say if you don't like it, after all you'll be staying often."
Shen Tang's room was on the second floor, the room was very large, and the décor was very nice.
Most of the room was light pink and white, not tacky at all, but very cozy.
There were clearly many things in the room that a child could use, and there was also a large display cabinet with more than twenty gift boxes inside.
Shen Lady explained, "These were all bought over the years, one for you every year. Because we never got to see you... so we always believed you were still alive, just didn't know where you were. Open them and see if you like them."
Shen Tang looked them over one by one. The birth gift was a longevity lock, the first birthday gift was a gold bracelet, the second birthday gift was a rocking horse, the third birthday gift was... all the way to this year's gift, which was a bracelet.
This bracelet was particularly beautiful, and it touched Shen Tang's heart at first sight.
Seeing this, Shen Lady took out the bracelet, "Come, try it on."
"This doesn't seem right..."
"What's not right? This was for you to begin with."
Shen Lady forcefully put the bracelet on Shen Tang's wrist. The pink diamonds glittered under the light.
Shen Tang's skin was fair to begin with, and the bracelet made her look even whiter.
Even Shen Lady couldn't help but envy her, "You're so fair."
Shen Tang smiled shyly, "You are very fair too."
"Me?" Shen Lady touched her face, "This is the result of technology, not comparable to your natural complexion. Your mother was also very fair."
That's why they felt even more heartbroken when they saw the particularly obvious scars on her body.
It was a pity that there was still no news of that scumbag until now, no knowing where he was hiding.
Not being able to find the person before was one thing, but now they had found Shen Tang.
Shen Tang also looked so much like Xiuxiu, Shen Lady was a little worried in her heart, afraid that the scumbag would come looking for her.
After all, Shen Tang was a public figure. If that person said things that were untrue, people online wouldn't care if it was true or not.
Shen Tang didn't think so much. Seeing so many gifts, her heart felt sour.
She felt a little guilty. Was she not a shameless thief like this? Stealing someone else's happiness?
She even became curious about where the original owner had gone, and why she had transmigrated over.
Because her thoughts weighed heavily on her, her smile faded somewhat.
Shen Lady also took Shen Tang to see her mother's room. The room was spotless, even the corners were clean.
Everything was kept in its original state, the bed sheets and blankets were still on the bed, as if someone had been living there all along.
It was evident that the Shen family had put in a lot of care.
"Mother would definitely be very happy if she knew."
"Hopefully..."
Thinking of Shen Xiuxiu, Shen Lady's face also showed a trace of sadness.
She quickly adjusted her expression, "Well, today is a day of great joy, let's not talk about these things for now. Are you hungry? Your uncle should have finished cooking."
Shen Tang touched her stomach, "I am a little hungry. I heard from Shen Yu that Uncle is a great cook, I'm lucky today."
"Yes, your uncle, he cooks very deliciously, he's just too lazy..."
The two chatted and laughed as they went downstairs. Downstairs, grandmother kept staring at the top of the stairs, craning to see them.
Seeing Shen Tang come down, she instantly smiled, "Xiuxiu... "
Shen Tang knew as soon as she heard that grandmother was ill again, unable to recognize people.
"Xiuxiu... you're back..."
"Grandma..."
The Shen family was already experienced in dealing with this situation, coaxing her was the way.
Soon, the old lady became sleepy again and the caregiver took her back to the room to sleep.
Sitting on the sofa, Shen Tang asked, "How long has Grandma been like this?"
"For a while, most of the time she's still quite clear-headed, I think it's because she misses Auntie too much. Don't take it to heart, sister Tangtang."
"I have nothing to mind." Shen Tang shook her head, feeling a little bitter in her heart.
"Dinner is ready!" Shen Boyuan brought out the dishes, "Let's eat!"
Shen Yu and Shen Lady pulled Shen Tang over to eat, pushing in her chair and putting food in her bowl, very enthusiastic.
Shen Tang couldn't help thinking to herself, if the Shen family knew she wasn't the real Shen Tang, would they still treat her this way?
She seemed to have fallen into a strange loop of self-doubt, knowing yet unable to get out of it.
She hadn't been this kind of person before, yet now she was actually feeling such anxiety and apprehension.
"Tangtang, is the taste not to your liking?"
"No, it's very delicious." Shen Tang said, taking a big mouthful of rice.
She was not lying, the food was indeed very tasty, with a taste of home that she had never experienced before.
