Chapter 347 Birthmark
Of course Su Tong knew that Zhang Deming couldn't come, but Cheng Zi's mother would definitely come if she knew!
She was about to ask when she heard the other side continue:
"You don't have to call anymore! Zhang Deming's wife is here! I told her to come in the afternoon, and she came in the morning! I've been waiting for almost two hours, don't hang up! You can talk now!"
After the old comrade finished speaking on the phone in a loud voice, he told the person next to him:
"Take it, hold it with your hands, and talk to these eyes! Speak!"
Su Tong was simply at the point of laughing and crying. This old comrade could tell jokes in modern times. This turn of events made people feel very nervous!
"Hello! Hello!"
Cheng Zi's mother's voice came over.
"Talk about something! Stop feeding me all the time!"
The old comrade next to him was still giving orders.
Su Tong hurriedly said, "Aunt! I'm Su Tong! I stayed at Gangzi's grandmother's house last time!"
Cheng Zi's mother was very excited and kept saying:
"I know! I know! You're the only one who said you'd call! No one else would call me! I look forward to it every day!"
Su Tong said, "Aunt! I know you are thinking about Zhang Shoucheng, so I won't beat around the bush. I have heard about Zhang Shoucheng, but I still have a few questions to clarify before I can be sure whether I can find him!"
Su Tong made up his mind that if Zhang Shoucheng was finally sentenced to death, he would just say that he had not found the person.
As long as he is only in jail and still alive, his mother should know.
"Did you find out? Great! It's good that you found out!" Cheng Zi's mother's voice immediately choked.
"Aunt! Let me ask you a question! Do you know a girl called 'Gai Mei'?"
Su Tong asked directly.
The question sounded normal, but my heart was hanging high.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and then Cheng Zi's mother's voice suddenly became excited:
"Gai Mei? You mean, Cheng Zi met Gai Mei? I was wondering why he ran away without saying a word! It must have been Gai Mei who told him to run away! He has been like this since he was a child, being fooled around by that girl! He is still like this even when he grows up!"
Su Tong hurriedly said, "Aunt! Don't worry! Gaimei, is she also from your village? Is she?"
"Yes! It's Xiaoliu from the Debiao family, the youngest girl! Their family was desperate to have a boy, and they named her "Gai" in the hope of changing her fate!"
"Oh! That's right, it's the one who was adopted later! Girl! Now that you have found your sister, you should have found your family too, right?"
Su Tong only felt a "boom" sound in his head, as if something exploded.
Gaimei...is Xiaoliu from Zhang Debiao's family, the adopted daughter of her mother!
What if, what if Lin Jiao is the changed girl?
That... her mother! Her family!
She just felt a huge emotion that she couldn't tell whether it was excitement or sadness rushing out.
Her brain and throat were blocked, and she couldn't think or make a sound for a while.
But I heard Cheng Zi's mother continue to say:
"Girl, since you mentioned Zhang Gaimei, I'll tell you a few more words. That Gaimei has been smart since she was a child. She has five older sisters, but after she was born, her parents still wanted to have a boy, so they discussed giving her away!"
"She heard from someone that our children are few and far between and can't get enough to eat, so she pestered Shoucheng to play with her every day. Although Shoucheng is four years older than her, she still coaxed him around. She cheated him out of everything delicious and fun, and she even kept saying that she wanted to marry him!"
"Later, her family came to discuss with us, saying that they wanted to give me Gaimei to raise! She could be my wife or my daughter! How could I dare to agree? That girl has been so smart since she was a child, she would fool Shoucheng to death! Even if I raise her, I have to raise an honest one! Because of this, Chengzi even had a big fight with me, saying that I didn't want to raise a wife for him! It makes me upset just thinking about it!"
Cheng Zi's mother talked a lot before she realized that there was no sound on the phone. She panicked and shouted into the receiver:
"Girl, is it... I've said too much! Are you tired of listening?"
Su Tong took a deep breath, slowed down, found his voice, and said into the microphone:
"Auntie, I'm listening! You said, a five-year-old girl should still remember her childhood when she grows up, right?"
Cheng Zi's mother sighed and said:
"Girl, I am not afraid to tell you now that Gaimei was not even five years old. She was born in the same month as Chengzi, who was four years older than her. When she was adopted, Gaimei was already six and a half years old. Tell me, how could a six and a half year old child not remember anything!"
"The Debiao family had always wanted to give Gaimei away, but every family was poor back then, and they hadn't been able to make ends meet until they could barely make ends meet! Then, your mother came to the village to look for the child, and Gaimei was persuaded by others to stop clinging to her, and she hugged your mother every day and refused to let go!"
"When it came to her age, Debiao's family was afraid that your mother would not want her because she was too old, so they said she was only five years old, and even said her date of birth was the same as the child she lost! In those days, every child was skinny and you couldn't tell if they were five or six years old, and the people in the village wouldn't tell the truth. Unexpectedly, your mother...actually took Gaimei away!"
Su Tong sneered. It turned out that some things were engraved in one's bones since childhood, such as deception and fawning on the powerful.
She was silent for a long time before asking again:
"Auntie, Zhang Liansheng is also from the village, right?"
Chengzi's mother said, "Liansheng? You've seen Liansheng too! He is Chengzi's best friend, and they grew up together. After his father left, he hasn't been in the village for many years! Why? He..."
"Zhang Liansheng, do you also know Gaimei?"
"I know him! Of course I know him! When we were little, Chengzi and Liansheng always played together, and Gaimei followed them every day!"
Chengzi's mother was a little anxious, "Hey! Girl, don't think your aunt is annoying, okay? Now, what's Chengzi's situation now?"
"Aunt, I have met Zhang Liansheng and also heard about Zhang Shoucheng. I believe there will be results soon. Now, I have one last question for you!"
"Oh! You ask! Ask!"
"Gaimei - are there any characteristics? Like a mole, birthmark, or something else that can be clearly identified?"
She really wanted to confirm that Lin Jiao was the changed sister.
But the Lin family had never lost a daughter, so it was even more impossible for them to come to Gan City to look for their daughter. The only thing we know is that Lin Jiao's mother fled from Beijing City while pregnant and later went to Shanghai City.
But Gansu Province is far away from both places and is not on the route from Beijing to Shanghai.
Although the possibility is small, but...
She thought, maybe, maybe something went wrong in the process.
Having investigated to this point, she will not give up until she gets to the bottom of it!
It would be much easier if there was something more direct to prove identity.
Cheng Zi's mother said with certainty without pausing:
"Yes! Gaimei has a birthmark next to her ear, just like Shoucheng, but Shoucheng's is in front of her ear and is lighter in color, while Gaimei's is behind her ear and is red and as big as a copper coin. You can see it at a glance! Both are on the left side! At that time, because of this, the villagers even said that they were a perfect match! I won't remember it wrong!"
Su Tong felt that his boiling heart gradually cooled down and then calmed down.
Although she had not seen Lin Jiao many times, she was very sure—
There is no red birthmark behind Lin Jiao's ear.
