"It's not that easy. They have to be born on the same day! This kid is unlucky. He was born at the same time as my son. His mother was still unconscious and there was no one by his side."
"Tsk tsk tsk, I knew it. That kid doesn't look like you at all. I even laughed at you for being cheated on by your wife."
"If you hadn't come to me this time to sell that kid's wife, I really wouldn't have known that the kid wasn't your child."
"Shut your mouth, or I'll kill you if you say anything out of line."
"Alright, alright, I know your brother Tao is ruthless, I definitely won't tell anyone."
"That kid has become suspicious of me, so you should give him some space for a while."
"knew."
Chen Mo shut his mouth, and everyone looked at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu remained expressionless, but the ruthlessness in his eyes was undeniable.
Although he had always suspected that he was not Qin's biological son, he never imagined that he would be deliberately switched by Qin Tao.
He had long had his eye on his biological mother, and taking advantage of the fact that she was unattended, he switched her with his own son and brought him home.
Qin Yu had suspected this for many years, but he had never had any evidence. He had also investigated and found that Wang Guihua was indeed heavily pregnant at the time, which everyone could attest to.
He had considered the possibility that he might have been switched at birth, but he never imagined that Qin Tao had premeditated the switch.
"Big brother..." Seeing Qin Yu's appearance, the five of them gathered around.
After hearing these words, Chen Mo hesitated whether or not to tell Qin Yu.
No one would believe this story. How could anyone be so vicious as to deliberately switch their own son?
All this so that her son could enjoy a life of luxury in someone else's home and continuously extract money from them.
“He has already contacted his son, and they have been in contact for the past few years.”
"What a clever scheme." Xu Fulin said with a sullen face, recalling how Qin Yu had been treated like a laborer by the Qin family for years.
Except for Qin Tao's mother, who was unaware of the situation and thought Qin Yu was her own grandson, which allowed Qin Yu to have a few good years, the Qin family stopped pretending after Qin's mother died.
The claim that they had a grudge against their mother-in-law was all a lie; it was all a fabricated reason. From the very beginning, they knew that Qin Yu was not their biological child.
When the ugly truth was revealed, Qin Yu's eyes turned cold and icy, and his whole body became cold and devoid of warmth, as if he were in a powerless, icy pool, and all the blood in his body had turned cold.
The confusion I felt as a child has now transformed into real anger and hatred.
"Big brother..."
The five looked at Qin Yu, whose blank yet seemingly tangible gaze swept over them, causing them to fall silent in fear.
"I'm fine." Qin Yu's coldness vanished, and he returned to his usual demeanor.
However, the way the others looked at him suggested that he didn't seem to be alright at all.
"I want to be alone for a while." After saying that, Qin Yu turned around and walked towards the back mountain.
The five brothers wanted to give chase, but Xu Fulin stopped them, sighing softly. "Let him have some peace and quiet! His mind must be in a complete mess right now."
No matter how nonchalant one pretends, once they hear the cruel and true reason, no one can remain calm.
"Uncle Xu, is there any way to get justice for my brother?" Tian Min asked, distressed.
Xu Fulin shook his head. "Leaving aside whether what Lao Si heard is true or not, we have no evidence to prove that Qin Yu was adopted. At that time, everyone in the village saw that Wang Guihua was indeed pregnant, and when she was about to give birth, Qin Tao took her to a hospital in the city."
“There is no doubt about it. If the fourth brother hadn’t heard Qin Tao say it himself, we would have only dared to guess in our hearts.”
Xu Fulin is right. They really have no evidence to prove that Qin Yu is not Qin Tao's son, but Qin Yu has suffered so much injustice over the years.
Are we just going to... let them go like this?
"No, I'm going to avenge our boss!" The fifth brother, Tian Min, gritted his teeth in anger.
"If we want to deal with the Qin family, as long as we're in the village, they won't have an easy time. But... right now, the most important thing is our eldest brother!" the second brother said in a deep voice.
The Qin family is right here in the village. If they don't want to give them a good life, isn't that simple?
As long as no one catches him openly, they can do whatever they want to Qin Yu.
But Qin Yu's case is different. He suffered injustice for more than a decade, and this debt... can never be settled.
The crowd's eyes were filled with worry.
Qin Yu wandered aimlessly alone in the back mountain, unable to calm himself down.
He randomly picked a tree and vented his pent-up anger at it.
He had already guessed the answer, but he still clung to a sliver of hope, still thinking that perhaps it was true, as Wang Guihua said, that he wasn't close to his grandmother because he was raised by her.
Little did he know that this was a premeditated crime, and he had been kept in the dark for over twenty years.
"Damn it!" Qin Yu punched the tree trunk again and again until blood stained his eyes. Looking at his hands covered in blood, he stood numbly in place.
At that moment, he suddenly longed to see Xia Lan.
"Qin... Yu?" A voice sounded behind Qin Yu. Qin Yu turned around abruptly and saw Old Du standing behind him with a basket on his back.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Old Du noticed the menacing aura emanating from Qin Yu and asked worriedly.
"..." Qin Yu slowly sat down.
Looking at the blood on his hands, Old Du slowly walked up to him, put down his basket, took out a few herbs, crushed them in his hands, and applied them to Qin Yu's hands.
"No matter how angry you are, you shouldn't take it out on yourself." Old Du patted Qin Yu on the shoulder.
"If you don't mind, tell me, old man?" Old Du sat down next to Qin Yu.
"I should have guessed the answer long ago, but I still have a glimmer of hope..." Qin Yu remained silent for a long time, while Old Du waited patiently.
It wasn't until Qin Yu spoke up himself.
Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, Old Du sighed deeply.
“I can relate to that, and I understand it very well.” Old Du looked at the woods and told Qin Yu his story.
“I was reported by someone, and the person who reported me knew very well about my affairs. I knew in my heart who it was, but I always held onto a sliver of hope that it wouldn’t be him.”
"But as it turns out, my brain had already given me the real answer, I just didn't believe it."
Old Du said bitterly, "Being reported by one's own son, that's probably the biggest joke ever!"
"I taught all my life, and now that I'm old, I'm being lectured by my own son."
Qin Yu looked at Elder Du and slowly spoke.
“I’ve known since I was little that my mother doesn’t like me. Everyone says it’s because of my grandmother. I’ve always thought so too. I already had the answer in my heart, but I didn’t want to believe it and clung to the last bit of hope.”
