Chapter 341 Hidden for a Lifetime
"Father, are you okay?" Jian Laosan walked towards him quickly, his face full of excitement, but his heart instantly calmed down. Before his father fell ill, he was the backbone of the family.
Now that he was well, he had nothing to worry about.
"Father, you're finally okay. At home..." Jian Siying's eyes misted as she spoke. If father was gone, the third brother would definitely not be able to take charge of the family.
Fortunately, there are some outstanding nephews among hers.
Old Master Jian looked at the guests present and said, "I'm sorry to have startled you all. The opening of the elixir furnace has been postponed. If you leave Leizhou Island now, I will give you the biggest discount when the elixir comes out."
Guests: “…”
What is going on?
Everyone was smart and understood it immediately. It seemed that the death in the Jian family was caused by an internal conflict, and the murderer was not among the guests at all, otherwise why would they be allowed to leave.
"Before I leave, I have something to say." Jiang Yunxi walked out. She guessed that someone would randomly arrest people to be murderers today. The ten elixirs of immortality were indeed tempting.
"What do you want to say?" Old Master Jian looked at her.
"When I went to the Jian family yesterday, I found that they had imprisoned six infant spirits. They were killed at birth, and I have rescued them." Jiang Yunxi said loudly.
Infant spirit?
The guests were curious about what this was.
The old lady suddenly stood up and rushed towards Jiang Yunxi, her reaction extremely excited: "Where are they? Where are they? Can I see them?"
"Yes." Jiang Yunxi said and quickly set up a formation. Not only could she see it, but everyone present could also see it.
Suddenly, everyone saw six infant spirits.
They all look like newborn babies.
When the old lady saw the six children, she burst into tears and cried loudly. Her chest was in excruciating pain. She was filled with grief and self-blame. It was them, they were her children.
"What, what's going on?" Old Master Jian stared at the six infant spirits with wide eyes.
"Mr. Jian doesn't know? They should be your and the old lady's six children." Jiang Yunxi directly pointed out that he must know who the murderer who dug out the heart was.
It's from the Jian family.
In order to prevent the family disgrace from being made public, he asked the guests to leave now.
But the murderer didn't think that way. He invited everyone to Leizhou Island without any restrictions just to bring disgrace to the Jian family in public.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Aren't we our parents' children?" Jian Lao San looked at Jiang Yunxi angrily. She came to the Jian family to cause trouble.
I don't know where they found six babies to play tricks.
"Girl, what are you talking about!" Old Master Jian said in a deep voice with a tense face.
Jiang Yunxi gave him a cold look, then looked at the old lady, "Old lady, why don't you tell me?"
After Mr. Jian woke up, she saw that he had a heavy karma and sin of killing.
The old lady took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears, trying hard to suppress the grief and anger in her heart.
"Mother..." Jian Siying walked to her side. She was confused now.
"Don't call me mother, I'm not your mother." The old lady looked at her coldly with hatred in her eyes.
Jian Siying widened her eyes, "Mother, what are you talking about..."
She grew up by her side since she was the youngest, and she loved her especially. She was the happiest among six siblings, but now her mother says that she is not her daughter.
What's going on?
"See? Those six infant spirits are my children. They were swapped after they were born." When the old lady said this, tears fell like beads from a broken string.
This secret was kept from her for her entire life, a lifetime, until some time ago when she discovered it.
In the past forty years, the six children she had raised with great effort were not hers, but the children of Jian Dingzhi and other women, and he took her children away to make medicine as soon as they were born.
"What do you mean?" Jian Siying opened her eyes wide, her eyes were full of mist, and there was an expression of disbelief on her face.
"My eldest son had just been born when your father brought him back and exchanged him with another woman's newborn child, and then used my eldest son to make medicine." The old lady looked at Mr. Jian hatefully when she said this.
When they met and fell in love, he took care of her in every possible way. No matter how she acted like a spoiled child, he always coaxed and tolerated her patiently. She always thought she was lucky to have met someone who loved her.
For so many years, she had been happy until she discovered something. At that moment, her world collapsed. It turned out that for so many years, she was the only one immersed in the happiness that Jian Dingzhi had woven for her.
If she hadn't discovered it by accident, she probably wouldn't have known this truth that made her so heartbroken until the day she died.
She was glad that she knew it, otherwise she would not be willing to die.
Looking at the six infant spirits, her heart was broken. They turned into infant spirits and came back unwillingly, but Jian Dingzhi still did not let them go and imprisoned them in the formation.
"No, it's impossible. How could my father do such a thing?" Jian Siying kept shaking her head. She didn't believe it, even though her father was usually very serious and never smiled.
But he was always gentle to his mother, how could he treat her like that?
"Mother, where did you hear this? Father is definitely not that kind of person. Someone must be trying to sow discord between you two." Jian Lao San said after being shocked.
"How could he not do that? Then when I gave birth to my second child, my third child, and my fourth child... he switched them all with the children he had with other women." The old lady said heartbreakingly.
She thought she had become numb to the pain, but now that she spoke about it in public, she still felt excruciating pain.
"No, how could my father happen to have a child that he would swap with yours?" Jian Siying said with tears streaming down her face. She still didn't believe that her father would do such a cruel thing.
Everyone present: "..."
Oh my god, what did they hear!
Did Mr. Jian really do that?
Isn't the child born by the old lady also his child? How could he bear to give his own medicine to her?
Some people who bought the Jian family's elixirs began to retch uncontrollably when they thought that the elixirs they were taking were made from babies. What did they eat?
Is Mr. Jian crazy?
How could he do such a thing to his own child!
The old lady looked at Mr. Jian and said, "He approached me on purpose because he wanted to have a child with me to make medicine. So after I got pregnant, he made other women pregnant at the same time so that he could switch them."
She could never have imagined that the man beside her would do such a cruel thing. Her children were also his children, his flesh and blood. How could he bear to use them to make medicine?
Jian Siying's eyes widened, and she strode to Old Man Jian's side, "Father, please speak up. You're not that kind of person, right? You wouldn't do something that would harm the world, right?"
