Shu Yu looked at the tentative Sanya and laughed. Then, she carried her to the bed.

The little girl immediately burrowed into the thin blanket, revealing only her eyes, and smiled joyfully.

Shu Yu lay down beside her and asked her in a low voice, “Did you tell mum that you were coming over?”

“I did,” Sanya nodded obediently.

Shu Yu then relaxed. She reached out and patted the little girl gently.

The little girl probably felt hot, so she slowly lifted the quilt and stared at Shu

Shu Yu laughed, “Are you not sleeping?”

“Second sister, I really like you.”

Shu Yu raised an eyebrow. The little girl was embarrassed, but she still said in a low voice, “I’m so happy that you’re my second sister. Brother is happy too.” “Yes, I know. I’m also very happy that you’re my younger brother and sister.”

Sanya’s eyes immediately turned into slits as she smiled. With this smile, the scar on her face became more obvious.

Shu Yu couldn’t help but reach out to touch it. The little girl’s body suddenly stiffened, and she shrank her neck. She turned her face to the side, trying to cover the scar, “Second sister, it’s ugly.”

“It’s not ugly,” Shu Yu comforted her, “Didn’t I tell you before? This scar can be removed. Tomorrow I will go to the county’s medicine shop to get some herbs.

Not long after, our little Sanya will become a little beauty.”

The little girl’s eyes lit up, “Second sister, I, I don’t need to become a little beauty. Second sister is a beauty already.”

She quietly held Shu Yu’s hand and was very satisfied.

After a while, she slowly raised her head and asked in a low voice, “Second sister, can I go to the county with you?”

Sanya was five years old and had never been to the county. The furthest place she had ever been to was the village where Daya had married.

She wanted to go to the county with her second sister, and she also wanted to see her father and grandma. If her father knew that her second sister had been found, he would definitely be very happy.

Shu Yu naturally had no objections, “Sure, not only you, but we’ll all go.”

Since she had acknowledged them as family, she naturally had to go and meet the old lady and Lu Erbai officially. She reckoned Madam Ruan would be going to the county tomorrow to change shifts with the old lady as well.

After all, the old lady was not young anymore. She couldn’t possibly take care of the patient all the time.

If she and Madam Ruan were not around, there would only be two five-year-old children left at home. It would be better to bring them along.

Sanya was excited when she heard this, and her smile became brighter. She felt like she had smiled more than she had today in the past year, but she really was just too happy.

The little girl closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.

Shu Yu listened to her calm breathing, pulled the thin blanket up, and laid her hands flat.

Only then did she realize that the little girl was still holding two candies in her hand.

She was the one who had bought the candy.

Shu Yu suddenly remembered what Erya and Dahu had said when they had been outside the main room. The two had said that when they found their second sister, they would give her candy so that their second sister’s life would no longer be bitter after she ate the candy.

Shu Yu took a deep breath and looked at Sanya’s slightly upturned lips. She couldn’t help but smile too.

The next day, Madam Ruan came over and said that she was going to the

county.

She had wanted to tell Shu Yu yesterday, but there were too many things to do, so she had forgotten.

Her original intention was to bring Shu Yu along. After all, finding Erya was an important matter and she, of course, had to tell her husband and mother-in-law.

Thus, the two decided to set off together.

After breakfast, Madam Ruan carried the basket on her back, brought Lu Erbai’s clothes and her daily necessities, then left with Shu Yu, Dahu, and Sanya..
