A reincarnated girl, who begins by possessing a cultivator.

Ziyu asked a question.

Yun Chu patted Su Chun on the shoulder and said softly, "Why don't you go in and take a look? Maybe you can find the answer you're looking for. Anyway, the people who knew you are probably long gone."

These words were too hurtful. Su Chun shuddered for no reason and thought to herself: Yes, they must all be gone.

So she nodded, took a deep breath, and led Ziyu and Yun Chu toward the gate of the Su residence.

Seeing that the three women possessed an extraordinary air about them, the gatekeeper quickly stepped forward and asked, "May I ask what brings you three young ladies here?"

Su Chun's eyes darted around, and she quickly came up with an excuse.

"Ah, I also have the surname Su. My ancestors once lived in Qili Town. I wanted to come and find them."

Su Chun tried her best to keep her tone calm.

The servant understood.

"I see. However, my master and eldest son are not in the manor. The second son is receiving guests in the front hall. Please wait a moment while I go and inform them."

The servants looked them up and down, and seeing that Su Chun had a unique temperament, they felt that she was not an ordinary person, so they did not dare to make a decision on their own.

Su Chun nodded, letting the other party go ahead and make the notification.

She felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. To the Su family now, she was no different from an outsider; they were probably already beyond the fifth degree of kinship.

A moment later, the servants returned and respectfully invited them inside.

"Please come in, gentlemen. The second young master invites you to the side hall for tea."

Su Chun nodded, then followed the servants through several courtyards. Although the Su family was not a top-tier wealthy family, they were not comparable to ordinary families.

Su Chun's feelings became increasingly complicated; everything here was completely different from the home she remembered.

Soon, in the side hall, a young man in his twenties dressed in brocade robes sat in the main seat. He had a handsome face and a shrewd look between his brows. When he saw Su Chun and the other two enter, his eyes lit up slightly. He looked at Su Chun carefully and felt that Su Chun was not only beautiful, but also had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

He then stood up, cupped his hands in greeting, and asked, "My name is Su Mingzhe. May I ask how the three of you are addressed?"

"My name is Su Chun, and these two are my friends."

Su Chun responded, looking calmly at Su Mingzhe.

"Su Chun?"

Su Mingzhe paused for a moment, searching his memory for the name, but found nothing.

After all, Su Chun was thought to be dead by her family at the time, and a hundred years had passed. She was still a woman, so it's normal that they had no memory of her.

Chapter 187 Recognizing Relatives

"I heard that you've come to find your relatives. May I ask which branch of your family you belong to?"

Su Chun smiled.

"My lineage has been away from Qili Town for over a hundred years. Our ancestor was named Su Dashan. I wonder if the Second Young Master has ever heard of this name?"

"Su Dashan?"

Su Mingzhe's face immediately showed a blank expression, clearly he had never heard of this name before.

The Su family has produced many prominent figures for generations, so they wouldn't choose a name so casually.

He lowered his head and thought for a long time before saying, "I'm afraid that the young lady's ancestors are already five degrees removed from the current Su family. The names of my Su family ancestors are recorded in the family genealogy. Please wait a moment, young lady, I will go and get the genealogy to take a look, but I cannot guarantee that I can find it."

Su Chun nodded, though she didn't hold out much hope.

Over a century, an ordinary farmer like Su Dashan might not have been able to leave a trace in such a family genealogy.

Sure enough, Su Mingzhe returned with a thick family genealogy book. She carefully flipped through it for a long time, but still shook her head.

“Miss Su, I’m sorry, there is no name Su Dashan in the family genealogy. Miss, your ancestors may be earlier than ours. Our family genealogy only records seven generations.”

Su Chun sighed slightly. In a hundred years, a secular family can last for four or five generations, let alone her, who should have been away from home for over a hundred years, probably for seven or eight generations, or even more.

"Does the Second Young Master know how the Su family rose to prominence?"

Upon hearing this, a smile flashed in Su Mingzhe's eyes.

"Speaking of this, we have to go back a hundred years. According to the elders of the clan, about 110 years ago, my Su family ancestor accidentally obtained a sum of money. He used the money to buy fertile land and build a house, and that's how the family gradually developed and became the Su family we know today."

Su Chun smiled. Over a hundred years ago, unexpected wealth was definitely a thing of the past.

It was the money she secretly kept back then.

Su Dashan is Su Chun's grandfather's name; she did not directly mention her father's name.

He felt that if the family business was indeed founded by his younger brother, then his father's name must be on it.

"Then, was your ancestor named Su Lie?"

Su Chun's voice trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly.

Su Mingzhe was surprised.

"Hey, how did you find out, young lady? Our Su family's founding ancestor was Su Lie. He was the founder and the first ancestor of our Su family."

Su Chun felt a lump in her throat; Su Lie was her father.

According to the standards of that world, the Su family's current size must have been established by her younger brother, Su Ming.

"Second Young Master, I am from the lineage of your first ancestor. May I ask if you could take me to see the Su Family Ancestral Hall?"

Su Chun composed herself and suppressed her excitement.

Although Su Mingzhe had doubts, seeing that Su Chun seemed to be really related to the Su family, he nodded.

"Oh, so it's a branch of the first ancestor's lineage. That's true, we can't find it. Our family tree starts from the second ancestor."

So Su Mingzhe took Su Chun to the Su family ancestral hall, which was located in the backyard of the Su mansion. It was an ancient and solemn pavilion.

The ancestral hall houses the memorial tablets of the Su family's ancestors, and people come daily to clean and offer incense.

Su Chun followed Su Mingzhe into the ancestral hall, her gaze sweeping over the rows of black lacquered memorial tablets.

Her heart was beating faster and faster, as if it were about to burst out of her chest.

Finally, he saw two familiar names near the top.

"Su Lie, Yang Shi."

Su Chun stared blankly at the two memorial tablets for a moment, her eyes instantly welling up with tears.

A century has passed, and things have changed. Her parents have long since turned to dust, leaving only this cold memorial tablet standing quietly here.

She stepped forward, reaching out her trembling hand to touch the cold wooden memorial tablet, but stopped in mid-air.

"Father, Mother, Chun'er is back."

She silently said to herself, "I don't know if it's because I've lived so long and experienced so much, but when I returned home, I found that I no longer had the same determination I had back then."

Standing behind her, Ziyu couldn't help but tear up when she saw Su Chun's sad expression, and gently took her hand.

Because she was thinking of her parents.

Seeing Su Chun's emotional tears, Su Mingzhe's doubts deepened, but he did not say anything to disturb her.

Because he realized that Su Chun was genuinely emotional and not joking.

Su Chun stood in front of her parents' memorial tablets for a long time before she gradually calmed down.

She wiped away her tears and continued to search the memorial tablets.

Soon, she found another memorial tablet.

"Second-generation scion, Su Ming."

It is the memorial tablet for her younger brother, Su Ming.

Looking at the memorial tablet, Su Chun was filled with mixed emotions.

She seemed to see the little boy following behind her, his nose running, and she saw him using the money she left behind to improve the family's situation, working hard and eventually making the Su family prosperous.

He must have suffered a lot.

Next to Su Ming's memorial tablet, there were many other memorial tablets, clearly belonging to Su Ming's descendants.

"So, our Su family already has so many descendants."

Su Chun murmured to herself, a strange feeling welling up inside her.

There was relief, there was emotion, and there was also a slight sense of estrangement.

These people are her bloodline, yet they are like strangers to her.

Su Mingzhe finally couldn't help but ask, "Miss Su Chun, who exactly are you?"

Su Chun turned around and looked at Su Mingzhe, a complicated smile in her eyes.

"Who am I? Kid, come to think of it, I should be your great-aunt."

"Second-generation rich girl?"

Upon hearing this, Su Mingzhe was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out. He looked Su Chun up and down and saw that she was extremely beautiful and looked to be no more than twenty years old. How could she be his great-aunt?

Su Chun knew he would find it hard to believe, so she flicked her finger, and a faint spiritual energy condensed at her fingertip, emitting a faint glow.

He saw the magical light emanating from Su Chun's fingertips, and his face changed drastically in shock. Then, he knelt down on the ground with a thud.

"You, you're an immortal?"

In the eyes of mortals, those who can wield such power are undoubtedly the legendary immortals.

"Don't be afraid, get up."

Su Chun withdrew his magic power and gestured.

"I am not an immortal, but just a cultivator. A hundred years ago, when I left Qiligou Village, I left some money behind. I suppose it was these things that allowed Su Ming to improve his family's situation."

Su Mingzhe quickly stood up and said respectfully, "That's right. It has been passed down from generation to generation in our clan that our ancestor received unexpected wealth, which is why the Su family prospered. So, it turns out that the one who left behind the money was you, Aunt?"

His gaze toward Su Chun was filled with awe and excitement.

The Su family has members who hold official positions in this generation, so they are not unfamiliar with cultivators.

Su Chun nodded slightly, a huge weight lifted from her heart.

She found a home, and found the continuation of her bloodline.
