After a while, Gu Yiyang came over with the two brothers Gu Jinyan and Gu Qinghui. Lu Ting looked at his father Lu Fengnian, and then Lu Fengnian shook his head at him.
Lu Ting understood that his father meant to discuss the matter after dinner.
But Hua Min on the side couldn't help it. She stood up with red eyes, slowly walked to Gu Jinyan, looked at him quietly, and shouted in her heart: Son, my son!
"Jinyan, what have you been busy with recently?"
"Aunt, I'm doing fine lately. I'm working as an apprentice for Chef Liu at a state-owned restaurant."
Su Yan looked at the tall and thin man in front of her who was about eighteen or nineteen years old. The man's eyebrows and eyes looked somewhat similar to Lu Ting, and his mouth and nose were somewhat similar to her mother-in-law. Why didn't they notice it at the beginning?
"Mom, please sit down first. Hello, Jinyan! I am your sister-in-law Su Yan." Su Yan was afraid that her mother-in-law would lose control, so she pulled her to sit down first.
"Hello, cousin."
Su Yan smiled. This guy wasn't fooling around. Shouldn't he just go along with her and say "sister-in-law"? He was just as serious as his brother Lu Ting.
There were so many people in the Lu family that they couldn't fit in two tables. Some stood, some sat. Lu Ting and Gu Jinyan sat at a table with the elders.
Su Yan sat at the same table with her mother-in-law, aunt, and Lu Ting's cousins.
Because there was not enough space, those who were twelve or thirteen years old had to stand with their bowls in hand. Su Yan didn't want to compete with them for the food, so she just took a few bites and put down her bowl and chopsticks.
Anyway, there are so many tables full of delicious food, so I will feel at ease if I finish eating early.
After dinner, Mrs. Lu was about to assign work to her daughter-in-law. Seeing this, Su Yan pushed Lu Ting and said, "Hurry up and speak. Once your uncle and aunt are gone, who will witness this historic moment?"
"Grandpa, I have a secret to tell everyone."
"What's your secret, kid?"
Hua Min shuddered subconsciously, and Su Yan quickly supported her, "Mom, don't get excited."
Lu Xiangqian had sharp ears and seemed to sense that something was amiss. Normally, when his wife had a birthday, his family never mentioned celebrating for her!
This time, he specially called everyone in the family back. What was he trying to do?
"Lu Ting, tell me, what secret is there?"
"Grandpa, hold your heart first. The secret I want to tell you is about nineteen years ago, when my mother and my aunt, Comrade Lu Shiwei, gave birth to a child in the old Lu family house."
Lu Xiangqian was confused, Mrs. Lu Deng Xiu'e seemed to be nervous, and Lu Shiwei was completely dumbfounded.
"Dad, don't listen to Lu Ting's nonsense. I didn't switch the baby."
Genetics are really scary. Lu Li is so stupid, he looks just like his aunt Lu Shiwei.
Su Yan smiled and asked, "Aunt, my Lu Ting didn't seem to mention the baby swap. Why did you mention the baby swap? Did you steal my mother-in-law's son nineteen years ago?"
"Shut up!"
"Auntie, Yanyan just asked if you did it? Why are you panicking?"
Lu Shiwei looked at her mother and said, "Mom, say something!"
As soon as Lu Shiwei finished speaking, Lu Fengnian was 100% sure that his mother was the mastermind. He hated and annoyed his mother for doing this.
"Mom, how could you do this? Why did you exchange my son for the Gu family?"
Gu Jinyan stood there stupidly. What news did he hear? He was not actually a child of the Gu family, but his uncle's son?
Gu Yiyang looked at Lu Shiwei in disbelief and pulled her over. "Tell me, tell me what's going on?"
"Yi Yang, listen to my explanation. Don't listen to this brat's nonsense. Who swapped the children? Jin Yan is originally our Gu family's child."
"Aunt, you know whether I'm talking nonsense or not. The midwife from Xishui Village took a piece of small yellow croaker from grandma as hush money."
"No, you're talking nonsense." Lu Shiwei knew that the situation was very bad. Since they couldn't produce any concrete evidence, they would never admit it even if they were beaten to death.
Old Mrs. Lu, Deng Xiu'e's face was as dark as water. All the children she gave birth to were here to collect debts. Today was her birthday, so why were they coming to make trouble on this day?
She looked at Lu Ting with disgust and said coldly, "Ting'er, you are the eldest son and grandson of our Lu family, and the chief of the Lu family. You must not talk nonsense."
"Grandma, I went to Xishui Village. The midwife took the small yellow croaker you gave her and built a few mud brick houses in my hometown."
The old lady raised her drooping eyelids slightly, and suddenly her eyes turned cold, "The midwife is dead, so stop talking nonsense."
There was a hint of mocking smile on Lu Ting's lips. His grandmother was indeed a child from a wealthy family. She was still pretending at this time.
Lu Shiwei was just happy to see her mother holding on, when Su Yan suddenly chuckled, "Aunt, let me look into your eyes and then into mine, and I'll know if you're lying or not."
Su Yan tricked Lu Shiwei into looking at her. Lu Shiwei looked at her disdainfully and said, "Look at your eyes? I know you have big eyes, so you don't have to show them off."
"Aunt, please look at me when you speak. Was it you who wanted to switch the baby back then?" Su Yan said softly.
Lu Shiwei was confused and said slowly, "I cried a lot during the birthing pain, and I was worried that the baby in my belly was another girl, so I was very anxious.
Suddenly, a midwife came in holding my eldest sister-in-law's son. My mother was very happy and asked the midwife to put the child here first, and then she started to deliver my baby. As a result, I gave birth to another daughter, so I asked my mother if I could exchange my eldest sister-in-law's baby..."
Deng Xiu'e's expression became unbearable, and she yelled, "Shut up!"
Lu Shiwei suddenly came to her senses and saw everyone looking at her with disgust. She didn't know what was going on.
The hypnosis was interrupted and Su Yan did not continue. If she continued, she would probably be exposed. What she should know was already known. There was no need to guess that the old lady was definitely involved in the baby-swapping incident, and she was the one who gave the hush money.
