Mrs. Jiang admitted it so straightforwardly that everyone present was confused. They just asked casually, and after hearing what Feng Changdi said just now, it turned out that Director Jiang was not really Mrs. Jiang's biological son.
"What's going on? Qijin, why have I never heard you and your wife talk about this? Didn't you always tell me how hard it was giving birth to Wei's child and how miserable it was at that time? How come... he is not your biological child anymore?" An old lady who was about 60 years old and looked about the same age as Old Lady Jiang spoke.
Old Lady Jiang and her family moved here later. They said they fled here to escape famine. Life was hard back then and everyone was running around. You were considered a citizen of wherever you settled down.
Old Mrs. Jiang brought their two sons with them. The two children were dressed a little differently. The younger one was wearing loose clothes, while the older one was wearing torn and dirty clothes.
The reason why she had such a deep impression of Old Lady Jiang and her husband was because of how Old Lady Jiang was dressed. People who had fled here from famine were all pale and skinny, and they didn't have enough food to eat. They had quilts tied with hemp ropes, and cups tied with ropes. They didn't even have a change of clothes or pants. They came here just to beg for food and would do anything.
But compared with the refugees, Mrs. Jiang and her husband had much cleaner and tidier clothes, and they did not look that hungry. Her family had no surplus food at the time, and could only barely give the refugees some porridge. There was a few grains of rice floating in a large basin of porridge.
I'm not really hungry, but it can just fill my stomach a little bit, which is better than having nothing to eat.
It was said that the old lady Jiang and her husband, who had fled from famine, were not interested in this thing. But the young Jiang Weijia licked his lips and gulped it down. He looked very pitiful.
At that time, she was still wondering why Old Lady Jiang was so partial to her two sons. She had also heard a little about the things between Old Lady Jiang and Jiang Wei's family.
Now after hearing what has happened here and listening to Old Lady Jiang say that Jiang Wei's son is not her biological son, it becomes understandable. No wonder she is biased towards him. If he is not her own son, then she would definitely be biased towards him.
"Everyone knows how difficult life was back then. There was no food to eat and no one could get enough to eat. Countless people starved to death and every household had no surplus food. The child from the Wei family was picked up by my old man. At the time, I saw the child was only one or two years old, standing on the side of the road, and was so hungry that his face was pale and his body was thin." Old Mrs. Jiang said.
"At that time, we had no children at home. My husband was kindhearted and thought that a child so young would surely starve to death if left on the roadside, so he took the child home to raise. As I was raising him, I became pregnant with Wei An. Wei An is my biological son, so I had to be partial to Wei An."
"As everyone knows in this world, it's good enough to have something to eat. Now that my family has a child, life will definitely be tight. I have to put Wei An on the side. I should give priority to my younger brother in terms of food and supplies. I did nothing wrong, did I?" Old Mrs. Jiang spoke smoothly. She had thought of this argument a long time ago.
She was just afraid that Jiang Weijia would find out one day that she was not their biological child. After all, Jiang Weijia didn't look like anyone in their family, and his brain wasn't the same. Jiang Weijia learned everything so quickly, but apart from Jiang Weijia, no one else in the Jiang family was so capable.
You never know when someone might find out.
It doesn't matter if she finds out that the child is not her biological child. As long as the biological mother cannot be found, then what happened in the past, what she said, and what she did, it's all up to her to say.
When the biological mother becomes the adoptive mother, the favor becomes even greater. She doesn't believe that she can't control Jiang Wei's family.
