Where did he conjure up these children for the third son?

Jiang Yonghai instinctively tried to slip away, but when he turned around and saw two burly men, he smiled sheepishly. "Third brother is back. I'll go tell eldest brother the good news."

The third and sixth brothers exchanged a glance after hearing this.

How could such an upright and honorable man as my elder brother have such a cowardly and timid elder brother who is so shameful?

This truly shows that the dragon has nine sons, and each of them is different.

However, the two still made way for each other.

Jiang Yonghai left in a flash, running quite a distance before finally relaxing and leaning against a tree, panting heavily.

Wasn't the third brother dead? How come he's back?

Before he left, he repeatedly told me to take good care of those children.

A considerable amount of silver was left behind.

If they knew their family treated these children badly...

Jiang Yonghai simply couldn't bear to think about it. No, no, he had to come up with a way. Even if he had to pin the blame on his mother and eldest son, he absolutely couldn't let it get involved with him.

This is the old Jiang family residence.

Jiang Yong'an quickly realized that something was wrong.

Could it be that I've been away from home for too long and the children are angry?

Indeed, he's been gone for almost four years; I'm afraid the two little ones wouldn't even recognize him now.

Although Mingyi and Zhuer were older, they still harbored resentment after being abandoned for four years.

He really needs to apologize to those two kids.

However, now that he's retired from military service, he can spend more time with his children.

Jiang Yong'an said gently, "Mingyi, Zhu'er, your father is back."

This time there was an answer: "My son, my son Yong'an is back?"

Grandma Jiang thought she had misheard. When she rushed out and saw her youngest son standing outside the door, tears streamed down her face. "It really is my third son. You're not dead. You're back."

Jiang Yong'an was overwhelmed with emotion at his mother's appearance. His mother didn't like him, but after so many years apart, their bond had deepened.

"Your son is unfilial and has caused his mother worry."

Jiang Yong'an stepped forward, just about to help his elderly mother up.

Old Mrs. Jiang suddenly remembered something, "You are not my son Yong'an. Third brother is dead. Who are you impersonating him? Second brother, second brother, someone is impersonating your brother. Quickly find someone to drive him away."

This son has always hated evil since he was a child. If he knew that she had driven away several children, how could he tolerate her?

Absolutely cannot admit it, cannot admit that this is her third son.

Jiang Yong'an was dumbfounded, and for a moment he couldn't understand what was wrong with his elderly mother.

The two people guarding the door were also a little confused.

"Brother, did you go to the wrong place?"

The third brother glanced at it and said, "Do you think our eldest brother is as stupid as you?"

How could I have gone to the wrong place?

However, first his elder brother left in a hurry, and then his mother refused to acknowledge him.

There's clearly something fishy going on here, and there's a lot of trouble involved.

The third brother was known for his intelligence and was called a strategist. When he saw someone passing by, he quickly went to inquire.

The person returned shortly afterward.

The sixth man looked at the man with a dark expression, a hint of surprise in his eyes. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." He had been waiting outside with Lao Liu, but he couldn't care less about anything else at the moment.

Jiang Yong'an frowned when he saw his brother come in. "Why are you here?"

"I just want to ask the old lady one question: My eldest brother entrusted his children to you, how could you be so heartless as to kick them out of the house?"

Jiang Yong'an's expression changed instantly, and his gaze towards his elderly mother sharpened. "Mother, what happened? Were Mingyi and the others really driven away? Where are they now!"

He hadn't heard the children talking and assumed they had gone out to play.

Who would have thought that they would be kicked out of their home?

When were they driven away, and how are these children surviving?

Are they still alive?

A host of questions rushed into Jiang Yong'an's mind at once, and his expression turned grim.

"Is this how you talk to your mother?"

The sudden accusation made Jiang Yong'an frown. When he saw his eldest brother's angry face, this unease spread through him. He knew the personalities of his two older brothers.

My second brother is slick and not the type to accomplish great things. My eldest brother, on the other hand, is always fair and just. Although he is a bit aloof, he is fair and just.

Even when criticized by her mother, she wouldn't say anything to upset her. Now, her sudden outburst of anger only makes things worse.

"Brother, before I left, I entrusted you with three hundred taels of silver to take care of Ming Yizhu and his siblings."

Three hundred taels of silver!

Grandma Jiang's expression changed upon hearing this. She had no idea that the third son had secretly given the eldest son so much money!

Seeing the change in his mother's expression, Jiang's eldest son felt a pang of guilt. "Do you think we haven't taken good care of these children? You just left four children at home like that. Where is your sense of responsibility as a parent? Your mother is so old, and she fell seriously ill while taking care of these children. Where were you then?"

Old Jiang shouted fiercely, "Yes, I took the money you gave me, and I spent it all. You have no money, but you can take my life!"

This is clearly bullying and acting like a scoundrel!

Bai Mu pulled Lao Liu over and whispered a few instructions to him.

The sixth man hesitated for a moment, "Will this work?"

"Go now!" What are you dawdling for?

After being glared at, Lao Liu hurriedly ran out to find someone, and ran into Jiang Lao Er as soon as he stepped out.

Even the fierce Zhang Fei could tame an embroidery needle. The sixth brother grabbed the man and dragged him outside, demanding, "Why did you kick those children out of the house?"

Jiang Lao Er was being grabbed by the collar, and he was having trouble breathing.

This person has a fierce and menacing look on their face; they're terrifying.

“We didn’t kick them out, but the old lady in the family has always had health problems. After we asked a shaman to come and take a look, she said that her birth charts were incompatible with the children’s and that they couldn’t live together.”

"real?"

"Why would I lie to you, sir? You can just ask anyone else about this." Jiang Lao Er's face turned pale; his elder brother had said so.

The brothers were of one mind: to appease the youngest brother first.

They are brothers after all. Even if the third brother has doubts, how could he possibly harm his two older brothers?

However, the man in front of me had a face full of menacing features, which was really quite terrifying.

"Sir, I wonder what your relationship is with my third brother?"

The sixth man shoved the man aside, saying, "You think you're qualified to know?" He then went to ask a few more people.

So that the third brother won't say he's unreliable later.

He's clearly a man who can hold off ten thousand men, and he's incredibly reliable, isn't he?

The Jiang family's old residence.

Jiang the eldest looked utterly dejected and heartbroken. “I know you’re capable, third brother, and you look down on these poor folks in the family. But heaven is watching what people do, and what we’ve done is something we can be proud of!”

Jiang Yong'an frowned slightly upon seeing this, perhaps he really had misunderstood.

They are brothers; how could their mother and elder brother possibly abandon those children?

Just as Jiang Yong'an was about to speak, he suddenly heard Bai Mu behind him say, "May I ask whether those children are dead or alive now?"
