So Zhang Shengli went home and told his family what had happened.

His wife Liu Qiaozhi was very sad when she heard that her child could not be saved and died, but she had been mentally prepared and had to accept it.

In those days, medical standards were low and many babies died at birth.

Then I heard that a child was picked up on the way, and he was a chubby little boy.

She was in confinement after giving birth and was overwhelmed with maternal love. She also felt that she had a strong connection with the child, so she agreed to keep the child and raise him as her own son.

I also told the head of the household that this kid looked very nutritious and didn't look like he was something that the family couldn't feed, so how could they bear to throw him away?

The two chatted and thought for a while, maybe something happened at home, who knows.

Since he has come to our family, he will be the third child from now on, a biological child. I will tell outsiders that my third son’s illness has been cured.

Later, the boy grew up healthy day by day, hardly ever got sick, and was very strong. Zhang Shengli named him Zhang Wenyong.

When Zhang Wenyong was brought back, Zhang Wenrui was already six years old and understood things. This baby was not the sick younger brother, but the one who was brought back.

His parents did not hide the truth from him, but they loved Zhang Wenyong very much from childhood to adulthood.

Despite the advice of family elders, I have kept the secret until now. In my heart, this is my real brother.

Therefore, Zhang Changshuan and his wife, Zhang Shengli and his wife, and Zhang Wenrui of the Zhang family knew the truth, but no one else knew.

Now, Zhang Shengli finally learned from Yongzi's story that he was the young master of a wealthy family in Beijing, and that family's surname was Zhang.

Alas, even our surnames are homophonic, what a... fate!

Zhang Yunfu's family went to France at first, and no one knew where Mrs. Lu's hometown was. Originally, they had no plan to take her with them when they went abroad.

Later, when something happened, we had no idea where to look for him. We only knew that the man's accent was from Northeast China.

Over the years, I have asked people in the Northeast to inquire about it, but to no avail.

In fact, she changed her name to Lu Cui after arriving in the capital. Later, she returned to her hometown and still used her original household registration name, Lu Dalan.

Later, eighteen years later, Mrs. Xie, a maid who had served concubine Li Yuehe for many years and also went to France, accidentally told the truth to her husband.

He said that he actually knew the details of Mrs. Lu who stole the child, but no one else knew.

But she couldn't say it, because if the concubine knew she was an insider, she would kill her.

Mrs. Xie’s husband suddenly had an idea and scolded her for not telling him earlier!

After thinking for a while, he decided to seek favor with the lady and use this matter as a bargaining chip to get a lot of extra benefits, so he leaked the secret.

In this way, the whereabouts of Mrs. Lu were finally found.

But Li Yuehe is not giving it away for free, and there are many spies in her family.

After receiving the news, he knew that the matter was exposed. For the sake of his young son, he did not care about his own fate. He instructed a confidant to find a way to inform his eldest brother Li Huaidong to get rid of the eldest son at all costs.

…

That night, the father and son talked for a long time, and Zhang Shengli knew that Sanyong should go to France and return to his biological parents.

Put yourself in their shoes. How could anyone not be in pain after losing their most cherished son, especially in a family like that?

He couldn't ignore his seriously ill biological mother, his biological father, and his biological sister.

As for what will happen in the future, let's just take it one step at a time.

Zhang Wenyong told them his idea, pretending to go hunting in the mountains, but he slipped and fell off the cliff. The others searched for a whole day and night but couldn't find him. He must have been taken away by a wild beast...

Zhang Shengli nodded and said yes.

He also said that if he had a hard time living there in the future, Sandaogou would still be his home.

If I could come back one day, I would say that I was rescued by a hunter, but I hit my head and lost my memory...

Anyway, there are always more solutions than problems.

The father and son chatted until four o'clock in the morning. Zhang Shengli had to go back in the dark before daybreak, as someone would have seen them by daybreak.

There was indeed no one on duty at the brigade headquarters tonight. In fact, there was no one there during the New Year holidays and there was nothing to do. He was just trying to scare Liu Qiaozhi, so it was a good opportunity for him to go there and take a nap until dawn before going home.

This day is already the ninth day of the first lunar month, which is February 15th in the Gregorian calendar.

He had a lot of things to do when he returned. First, he had to write a letter of introduction and let Wenrui secretly go to the county town to buy a train ticket to the capital on the tenth day of the first lunar month.

Fortunately, they have a car here, so they don’t have to go to the provincial capital to reverse.

In addition, before Sanyong leaves, he must see his family and say goodbye.

There was no way to hide it from the second son, Zhang Wenxing. There were many things to come. He was an adult now, so he could tell him.

The other younger ones, as well as the two daughters-in-law, all have to find a way to spend today's expenses.

It is normal to give your daughter-in-law some fine grains and food and let her take her children back to her parents' home to visit and stay overnight. The New Year has not yet ended.

Take some extra money and let Chunxiu take her two younger brothers to visit Zhang Shenglin's home in the county town.

The less people know, the safer it is.

Zhang Wenyong watched his father get up from the kang and start putting on his fur coat. He took out all the money from a small wooden box at the end of the kang.

He had three large yellow croakers and four thousand dollars, which was all he had saved.

"Dad, this is the money I saved over the past few years. I will only take one gold bar with me, and leave the rest to you as a gift from your son to you, mom, and grandpa and grandma."

When Zhang Shengli saw so much money and gold bars, his eyes widened.

"Good boy, you are really good. I knew you had a lot of money, but I didn't expect this guy to be able to do so much!"

Zhang Wenyong thought, wasn’t that the last time Doubao and Xiaomin stole some money from the bandit’s lair?
