Chapter 129 More Clues

Ai Xiaoxia thought about it and shook her head: "I don't think it's as simple as a mistake. I suspect someone did it on purpose."

"They are all girls, why do you want to change them? To let their children live a good life? It's your turn to work for them?" Lin Rui asked doubtfully.

"That's unlikely, because my family favors boys over girls. My mother won't spend so much time on her daughter. In her mind, girls live for their sons, so there's no need to change them. They all work anyway." Ai Xiaoxia replied.

She had thought before that maybe Meng Qiuju switched the two in order to let her daughter live a good life, but she thought that Meng Qiuju was not good to Ai Xiaoping, and she would not scheme against so many people for her daughter. Whether the girl was switched or not, she existed for her son, so this possibility was very small.

Lin Rui couldn't think of any reason, so he said, "Why don't you come with me to see my parents? I think they can find a way."

Ai Xiaoxia thought for a while and said to Lin Rui, "It's all speculation now, and I'm not sure yet. Why don't you come with me to Shiqiao Village and visit my family and my sister to see if she looks like your sister?"

Lin Rui also wanted to know the truth, so he had no objection: "Then let's go now."

Ai Xiaoxia said, "Okay, go get a long-distance taxi. I'll call my husband and tell him. This is all speculation, so let's not tell too many people."

The roads in the countryside are difficult to travel on at this time, so many taxis don't go. In addition, it is winter and it is afternoon, so you have to go out and ask. Some taxis require extra money, so you can't get a taxi directly, so Ai Xiaoxia asked Lin Rui to go and get a taxi first.

Lin Rui agreed: "Okay, then I'll go get a taxi." Then he trotted out.

Ai Xiaoxia went to the hotel front desk, paid the bill, and then borrowed a phone to call Lu Jingshen, telling him about these things and that she would be returning to Shiqiao Township soon, so he didn't need to worry.

How could Lu Jingshen not be worried? "I'm going to take a leave now. You don't have to hire a car. Go to the store and I'll drive you back."

"Lin Rui has already gone to hire a car. Don't worry. I'll call you if there's anything."

"I'm going to ask for leave now. You guys go first, I'll be there soon."

Ai Xiaoxia also knew that she couldn't stop Lu Jingshen, and this matter was indeed too big, so he could ask for leave if he wanted. "Okay, then don't worry, and drive carefully on the road."

Lu Jingshen agreed, hung up the phone and went to ask for leave.

Ai Xiaoxia went to the door and waited for Lin Rui.

After a while, Lin Rui took a taxi, came over to ask Ai Xiaoxia to get in, and headed for Dawa Village, Shiqiao Township.

On the way, the two didn't say much because they were both very nervous and couldn't explain the feeling.

After entering Dawa Village, Ai Xiaoxia had the taxi stop at the village entrance and said to Lin Rui, "If I go, it will alert the enemy. Go by yourself and make an excuse, like you went to visit relatives and went to the wrong place. Anyway, you can come out after seeing the people."

Lin Rui understood what Ai Xiaoxia meant, because if something really happened and his sister really knew about it and was in contact with this side, then he really couldn't alert the enemy.

So he got out of the car, went into the village, and found Ai Weimin's home as Ai Xiaoxia said.

He walked into the yard and saw Guan Mingyue feeding chickens. He asked her, "Sister-in-law, let me ask, is this Lao Jin's house?" He asked the wrong question on purpose, just to go in and find out, and didn't want them to be suspicious.

Because Lin Rui had heard Ai Xiaoxia's description of the Ai family and had some impression of the Ai family, he knew that this was not Ai Xiaoping.

Guan Mingyue looked at the handsome man, who seemed to be from a well-off city, and was very friendly. "Our family name is Ai. Which family are you looking for, the Jin family?"

While they were talking, Meng Qiuju also came out: "Who is it?"

Guan Mingyue said to Meng Qiuju, "Mom, you're looking for the wrong person. You should go to Old Jin's house."

Meng Qiuju glanced at Lin Rui and said, "You've got the wrong person."

Lin Rui felt that Meng Qiuju's mouth was a bit like his sister's, but he didn't know if it was a psychological effect or real, so he naturally couldn't leave just like that.

So he said, "Auntie, I'm quite cold walking here. Can I come in and have a cup of hot water?"

Just as he finished saying this, he saw the gold-inlaid jade bracelet on Meng Qiuju's wrist and was stunned. Isn't this my mother's bracelet? Originally, this was a jade bracelet. I broke it when I was a child, and my father took it to the gold shop to repair it. Because of this, I was beaten, so it left a deep impression on me.

Seeing Lin Rui's pale face, Meng Qiuju thought it was due to the cold, but she didn't think much of it. After all, he was a city dweller. If she helped him, he could leave some money for his family. It wouldn't hurt to get to know a city dweller, just in case she could use him in the future.

So she said, "It's not that difficult. Come inside and warm up."

Lin Rui recovered and calmed down. As Meng Qiuju entered the house, he had more questions in his mind. When he entered the kitchen, he saw Ai Xiaoping mixing pig food.

When Ai Xiaoping looked at Lin Rui, Lin Rui was really stunned. She looked like his sister Lin Zhu, especially the look in her eyes when she looked at him.

He was mentally prepared and knew not to alert the enemy. He scratched his palms with his fingernails, remained calm, nodded at Ai Xiaoping, and then went into the house.

Guan Mingyue poured him some water enthusiastically.

Lin Rui took a sip, suppressed his shock, and then pretended to casually look at the photos on the wall next to him. Seeing the young people in the photos, Lin Rui became more inclined.

What surprised him even more was that the men's watch on the kang was actually his. He recognized the scratch on it. He couldn't find it some time ago and thought it was lost on the street. Unexpectedly, it was here. He was not only suspicious, but also angry. He didn't expect Lin Zhu to steal things? These things couldn't have been taken by Meng Qiuju. No outsider could find them. There was only one possibility: Lin Zhu stole them and gave them to them.

In order to avoid arousing Meng Qiuju's suspicion, he pretended to chat calmly for a few minutes, and then said that he would visit again after finding his relative Lao Jin's family.

Meng Qiuju thought it was nice to meet a city person, so she happily sent Lin Rui out.

At this time, Lu Jingshen also drove to the entrance of Dawa Village.

Ai Xiaoxia got out of the taxi, paid the fare, and asked the taxi to go back. With Lu Jingshen driving, it would be more convenient to go anywhere and say whatever, and there was no need to waste resources.

After the taxi left, Ai Xiaoxia got in and told Lu Jingshen what happened today in detail.

As soon as they finished talking, Lin Rui came back.

Ai Xiaoxia got out of the car and walked over to him, quickly asking, "How's it going?"

Lu Jingshen naturally followed and waited for Lin Rui's answer.

Lin Rui looked at Ai Xiaoxia again and said, "I think your guess is correct."

When Ai Xiaoxia heard this, she understood: "Let's get in the car and talk about it."
