In those days, delivering a baby was usually paid one yuan and six red eggs. Where did she get the money to build a house?
I then asked her eldest son how their house was built.
He said that nineteen years ago, his mother delivered the daughter-in-law and daughter of a wealthy family at the same time. The host family saw his mother's hard work and rewarded her with a small yellow croaker.
His father used the small yellow croaker to exchange for money and built four houses and found wives for them.
Lu Ting explained to Lu Fengnian everything he had investigated, although he could not directly prove that the two children were swapped by them.
But at least we know that his grandmother did take a piece of small yellow croaker to seal the midwife's mouth. It was they who did it.
"It seems this matter is really related to your grandmother. Since the midwife is dead, there is no need to investigate there anymore. How is Jinyan's child?"
"He now works as a handyman for the chef in a state-owned restaurant, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, washing dishes, and doing everything else. Sometimes he gets scolded by the chef if he doesn't cut the vegetables well."
I don’t know what my aunt was thinking. Why did she ask a scholar to be an apprentice to a chef?
"Dad, I asked Jinyan how his family treats him. He said his grandparents and dad treat him well, but his mom is a bit partial and likes his younger brother the most."
Among the four children in the family, he was the last one ranked by his mother. Even now he didn't understand why his mother didn't like him.
Lu Ting thought about it and felt that his younger brother was really pitiful. His aunt never treated him as her own son from the beginning to the end.
Before my aunt gave birth to her youngest son, she might have liked him for a while and used him to win over the hearts of the Gu family.
Later, when my aunt gave birth to my little cousin Gu Qinghui, she no longer paid any attention to his younger brother Gu Jinyan and treated him as a relative who was staying in her house temporarily.
"That Lu Shiwei is really awesome!" Lu Fengnian gritted his teeth, wishing he could catch his sister and give her a good beating.
"Next Tuesday, your grandmother will be turning sixty-eight. Let's go back to the city to celebrate. I want to see if my mother can eat that bowl of birthday noodles with peace of mind."
If he goes to make trouble on grandma's birthday, his father can be really cruel. I wonder if grandma will collapse from anger? If grandpa knows about this, he will definitely be devastated, right?
"Dad, we have to bring my brother back home as soon as possible. I told Yanyan that they should study together and take the college entrance examination together next year."
"Well, we have to bring him back, and we have to send Lu Li back to the Gu family. By the way, we have to transfer Jin Yan's household registration back, and we have to change his name to Lu Jin, with the character 'Jin' next to the character 'Wang'.
Xiaoyu is sleeping in your room. When Lu Li moves out, let Xiaoyu sleep in Lu Li's room, and Xiaojin can sleep in your room!"
"My aunt's name needs to be changed. 抱瑾兀玉 (Huai Jin Wu Yu)" means beautiful jade, which is a very good word.
We all have two-character names, and his name is also two-character, so he can truly integrate into this family."
