The longing for her family was overwhelming, and Yu Songyu couldn't wait any longer. So, the very next morning, she set off for Shi Gou Village.
"Oh my goodness, is that a person or a ghost?"
Is it really possible for someone to look so much like another? It was uncanny; could they be twins?
As the women spotted Yu Songyu entering the village, they gathered around from a distance. However, they dared not approach too closely, merely pointing and whispering among themselves.
"Sister Wang, how are you? Sister Zhao, keeping busy?"
Yu Songyu greeted each of them with a calm expression.
"Sister Song!"
Upon seeing Song Yuxin, Yu Songyu broke into a smile, feeling more at ease with someone familiar.
"Oh my goodness, is that really you, Yu Zhiqing? Are you still alive?"
Song Yuxin exclaimed in disbelief.
"Yes, sister-in-law, I'm very much alive!"
"Wow, you're alive! That's incredible!"
As the other villagers realized that it truly was Yu Songyu, they flocked closer to ask questions.
"Yu Zhiqing, we searched for days and nights without finding any trace of you. What happened?"
"Right! You fell from such a high cliff—how did you survive?"
"I told you! I said Yu Zhiqing is a blessed person; look at her now!"
"Yu Zhiqing, please tell us everything!"
More and more villagers gathered around, eager to hear her story.
"Alright then, let me share!"
Yu Songyu cleared her throat and stood beneath the Big Huai Tree at the village entrance.
That day, I went to find Zhang Cuiying, and accidentally fell off a cliff. I was terrified, thinking to myself that this was it; I would probably die here. Perhaps it was the instinct to survive, but as I fell, I desperately grabbed at anything I could, and by chance, I managed to catch hold of a branch. Just then, a hunter happened to pass by and saved me!
I wondered why there was only blood on the ground and no one around!
Yu Zhiqing, this is a blessing! This means that surviving such a disaster will surely bring good fortune!
Yes, yes, Yu Zhiqing, go check on your grandmother and your maternal grandmother!
Right, right, hurry up!
Before long, news of Yu Songyu's return spread throughout Shi Gou Village.
When the two grandmothers saw Yu Songyu arrive, they couldn't stop their tears, pulling her close and looking her over from every angle.
Yu Songyu couldn't hold back either; they all embraced tightly and cried for a long time.
"Alright now, enough crying! You can't keep this up; you might make yourself sick!"
"Grandma, I'm fine! Look at me; I'm already recovered and feeling great!"
"Silly girl, women shouldn't be too strong; you've been through so much hardship. Oh dear, you've really suffered!"
The maternal grandmother held onto Yu Songyu's hand tightly, reluctant to let go.
"Don't worry, Grandma; it's all behind me now!"
Beside them, Zhao Lianzhi's eyes were also red as she hurried out to fetch water for Yu Songyu.
"My child, Yang Qinghe has gone off to join the army!"
Eventually, the conversation turned to this topic, and the two grandmothers sighed deeply.
"Yes, I already know!"
"What are your plans? Whatever you decide, we will support you!"
"I heard Yang Qinghe has enlisted!"
The grandmother spoke carefully; she feared that Yu Songyu might not take it well.
"Well, that's quite something!"
Yu Songyu smiled faintly, though there was a hint of bitterness in her expression.
