His sons, Hu Zi and Bing Zi, were close to Wei Lao Er and had benefited from his good influence quite a bit. They all tacitly kept quiet about it.

They secretly felt indignant for him, but now that they see Wei Baichuan's life getting better and better, they are happy for him.

“Auntie, I’m not here to see Hu Zi. I’m here to ask about something. I had such a big fight with my family. A few days ago, I even secretly went back to see them without my wife knowing. But my mother said I’m ungrateful and that she should have left me.”

“Auntie, I feel really bad when I hear this. The more I think about it, the more something seems wrong. Last time we were chatting, I heard you say that I was born under your care.”

"Why doesn't my mother love me? If it weren't for my aunt saying that I was born from my mother, I would have doubted whether I was her biological child."

Wei Baichuan came last time to get information out of people, but this time he's openly saying he suspects the child isn't his biological son.

He didn't miss Aunt Lu's questioning look either; he was now basically certain of his identity.

He wanted to find out exactly how Wei Changgen had replaced him right under everyone's noses.

Seeing Aunt Lu's furrowed brows, there must be something he didn't know.

"Chuanwazi, I didn't deliver your baby myself. You have no idea how dangerous that day was. The wife of that soldier from the next brigade was giving birth in our brigade."

"I remember it was snowing then, and the ground was slippery. She was so pregnant and fell down. She was in pain for a whole day and night and couldn't give birth."

"Later, your dad said that our brigade and the neighboring brigade already had a bad relationship. If this person got into trouble in our brigade, the two brigades would really be at odds forever."

“I was anxious too. In the end, your father took out a ginseng that was hidden at home, sliced ​​it, and had someone hold it in their mouth. But the woman still couldn’t give birth, though she had some energy.”

"In the end, I had no choice but to try the old method, so I went out and got a rolling pin, and unexpectedly, the baby was born just like that."

"At that time, the soldier's wife fainted. You don't know what happened to the child. He was all dark and grotesque. I was terrified. I thought he wouldn't survive."

“I haven’t even caught my breath yet, and your mother is about to give birth too. I’m rushing here as fast as I can, but your mother’s delivery went smoothly. She’s had several babies before. I heard you crying as soon as I got to the door.”

“I quickly went inside to tidy up. You were so strong and chubby when you were little. Although I didn’t see you born, you were definitely born to your mother.”

Aunt Lu knew that the child had been hurt by the Wei family. Since the child was born at home, unlike in a hospital, there was no way to change the baby if she wanted to.

"Auntie, when that soldier's wife gave birth, was there anyone else in the room besides you?" Wei Baichuan felt something was off.

Wei Changgen is a man, so he definitely couldn't get in. Huang Cuifen was probably giving birth at the time, so how did they manage to switch places?

“At first there were a few people who just came to watch the fun, but I kicked them all out because I thought they were in the way. The captain then called someone over to help me.”

Aunt Lu recalled that if it weren't for the fact that day was so dangerous, with two babies delivered in one day, and the midwives being from the Leishan Brigade, she probably wouldn't have remembered it at all.

"Does your aunt know that person?" Wei Baichuan thought that if he wasn't mistaken, that person was Wei Changgen's helper.

"Well... I didn't pay attention. I was completely terrified by the situation. The person just couldn't give birth. Anyway, it was someone from one of the two brigades. Who else could it be?"

Aunt Lu couldn't remember. She hadn't looked closely at the person then, but she felt like she'd seen them somewhere before. It must have been someone from their brigade or Leishan brigade.

Wei Baichuan nodded, already having a clear idea in his mind.

"Aunt Lu, maybe I'm wrong. I'm just feeling down and have nowhere to talk to. I'm also afraid my wife will overthink things, so I came to talk to you for a bit."

He openly inquired today because he wanted to put things in the open, and Aunt Lu might be suspicious of him too.

When someone from higher up comes down to investigate, she will definitely be the person who delivered the baby that year, and will be a key person to be investigated.

By then, she will definitely notice something is wrong. Many small details don't need to be pointed out by others. He gave her a start, and next time she will explain in more detail.

"Sigh, your parents are so foolish. Now you've finally gotten over your hardships. Live a good life with your wife, and your good fortune is yet to come."

Aunt Lu had watched Wei Baichuan grow up, and she felt that this child seemed more reliable than Wei Laoda and Wei Laosan.

Huang Cuifen will regret it later. She didn't love such a good son, but loved those two unreliable ones instead.

Wei Baichuan chatted with Aunt Lu for a while before going home.

As soon as he got home, he told Suti about what he had been asking.

“Wife, I’ve finished asking around. I think Wei Changgen did all of this, but I don’t know who his accomplice is.”

Wei Baichuan recounted everything he had asked Aunt Lu, and he figured that Huang Cuifen was also giving birth at the time, so it couldn't have been her who helped.

If it were Huang Cuifen, Aunt Lu would definitely recognize her. But who else would help Wei Changgen without telling anyone?

“Those people in the mountains,” Suti gave an answer.

"Why not think boldly? Back then, the premature birth in the Qi family's wrestling match was probably caused by Wei Changgen. Maybe Huang Cuifen had already given birth by then."

“Wei Changgen would only feel at ease with people who shared his interests. At that time, things were so chaotic, and he was the brigade leader. It would have been too easy for him to do something.”

"What if he lets his mother in to help, and then switches the child while Aunt Lu is out?"

"I was afraid Aunt Lu would find out something, and the child looked rather thin, so Aunt Lu must have been panicking too."

“They didn’t give her a chance to react at all, saying his wife was about to give birth. It was so chaotic that even Aunt Lu herself was probably confused.”

“She had already given birth by the time she arrived at Huang Cuifen’s place. She was busy with both places and would never suspect that Wei Changgen had switched the babies in between.”

“This is one thing after another. Wei Changgen is not a simple man. If my father hadn’t intervened, he would have been arrested long ago.”

“He’s still with the Wei family. We can’t expect things to go so smoothly. If he finds out what we’ve discovered, we won’t be able to guard against his underhanded tactics.”

Su Ti's analysis was very thorough, and she even felt a little scared afterward. Wei Changgen was much more terrifying than she had imagined.

When things are going smoothly, he can still scheme against them normally, but if he's really driven to the brink, his methods won't be so gentle anymore.

“Wife, if that’s true, those people in the mountains must know about it too. When I went to Wei Changgen’s place last time to talk about those things in the mountains, I found that Huang Cuifen had no idea that those people in the mountains existed.”

Wei Baichuan didn't take it seriously back then, as long as he could threaten them, that was enough. Now it seems that Wei Changgen doesn't trust anyone.

"Ha, Wei Changgen is so selfish, maybe his act of being filial to his mother in the mountains last time was just an act for you."

“A person like him only lives for himself. We have investigated everything we needed to investigate and asked everything we needed to ask.”

Now we just have to wait for Grandpa to make his move.
