Chapter 413 The Mystery Revealed
The woman said angrily, "I don't even know if they're a family. If you ask me, their personalities and dispositions are really unlike those of our Song family."
Beside her stood a girl in a pink dress, speaking softly, "Grandfather, Grandma, my mother is just worried that you two elders might have mistaken your Third Uncle. It's just adding to your sadness, so please don't blame her. She said the wrong thing in a hurry, and Miss Song won't blame her, right?"
Song Ci glanced at her and said, "If I tell you, I will blame you."
"Our Zheng family values etiquette and modesty. I think Miss Song should learn more from them when she returns to the Zheng family in the future."
"What etiquette and modesty?" Song Lao San's eyes darkened. "Your mother bullied my daughter, so it was her right. My daughter doesn't forgive her. Does that mean she doesn't know how to be polite and modest? You can turn black into white with just your mouth."
The girl didn't expect Song Lao San to speak suddenly. She was choked and her face suddenly became ugly.
"Okay, okay, stop messing around. Today is a good day for the third child to go home. Stop talking nonsense." Old Mrs. Zheng patted the armrest, looking displeased.
Everyone suddenly dared not say anything more.
The second wife just now was dissatisfied and said, "Father and mother, when my third brother went missing, did he have any tokens? If we rely solely on his appearance, I am really worried that you two elders will be deceived."
Old Mrs. Zheng glared at her, "I said he is my son, so he is my son."
Duke Zheng was a little hesitant, "When the third child was lost, there were rings on his hands and feet that were made by your mother herself."
Song Lao San is carrying these two things with him today.
"Since there is something, if you are really the third brother, you must have it on you." The second wife's face was full of sarcasm, and it was clear that she didn't believe it.
Song Laosan was silent for a while, and suddenly he began to doubt whether coming here today was the right decision.
But when he turned around and met Old Lady Zheng's earnest gaze, his heart calmed down again.
He slowly pulled out a pair of rings from his sleeves. "Is this it?"
Old Lady Zheng asked the maid to take it over and rubbed it carefully in her hands, her expression becoming more and more excited. "Yes, this is it. I remember this thing. I made it myself. The shape and pattern match."
Second Auntie was not convinced, "There are some with the same stuff!"
"Don't mess around." Zheng Lang warned with a faint look.
"I'm not wrong. Besides, you've been missing for so long, could it be that these things were returned to you out of kindness? They're all pure gold!"
In fact, what Aunt Zheng said was right. If it were an ordinary family, they would have sold it long ago. However, Old Lady Song has been holding on to it, intending to blackmail Old Third Song for the rest of his life. Otherwise, this solid gold ring would have been sold long ago.
"Song has been holding all these things. She wants to use them to blackmail me into working like a slave for the Song family and her son for the rest of my life. So, she kept all these things."
"Third brother is really lucky. Such an important thing was left behind." Aunt Zheng smiled wryly.
"That's enough, Rong. If you continue to make trouble, go back to your yard."
Second Aunt Zheng was furious. "Mom and Dad, now that we have the keepsake, the cloth that wrapped our third brother should be there too, right?"
Duke Zheng looked at Song Lao San, hoping to hear what he had to say.
Song Lao San: "Something happened at that time, and a fire burned it all down."
Aunt Zheng sighed, "What a coincidence! Someone could have found out about the ring and made the same one. But the fabric is from the past, so it can't be faked. How could it have been burned out of nowhere..."
Song Ci looked at her coldly. She was not worried that the Zheng family would recognize the wrong person, but that this second aunt in name only did not want her father to return to the Zheng family.
But why?
In the future, Zheng Yuan would inherit the Zheng family business, and according to common sense, the second and third sons would have to set up their own businesses.
So, why don’t they let Dad return to his roots?
"Shut up." Old Mrs. Zheng was furious. "You really have to be so aggressive today, don't you?"
"Mother, it's not that your daughter-in-law insists on doing this. We really need to be cautious. This involves blood ties!"
What a blood relationship.
Song Ci felt it was ironic. It seemed that the Duke Zheng's Mansion, which seemed to be an iron plate to outsiders, might not really be like that.
"Since you insist on saying so, I remember one thing that confirms that he is my son."
Madam Zheng Er's heart skipped a beat, but she forced herself to remain calm and asked, "What do you mean, mother?"
Old Mrs. Zheng said, "When the third child was born, there was a birthmark on his shoulder. I remember correctly."
"Third brother, when you were born, the birthmark was extremely obvious. Mother is not mistaken. Many people have come to our house to cheat us over the years, but no one knew about this birthmark."
Song Lao San fell silent, and even looked very unhappy. This was noticed not only by Song Ci, but also by the other members of the Zheng family.
Aunt Zheng was a little proud. "What's wrong, Third Brother? This is what I remember, there can't be any mistakes. Why don't you show it to everyone?"
The person has been missing for so many years, how could he be found suddenly? Besides, judging from the way she looked at this person, he might be a liar.
Song Lao San pursed his lips and said, "I don't want to."
Mrs. Zheng was stunned. "Why?"
Duke Zheng also looked at Song Lao San with suspicion, his eyes filled with uncertainty.
Could it be that his daughter-in-law was right, and this man was also a liar? Was it that his wife, missing her son so much, had mistaken him for someone else?
But he clearly noticed that the person in front of him was different from the others, which made him unable to help but get close to him.
Duke Zheng spoke softly, "Your second sister-in-law is straightforward and doesn't speak kindly. Don't feel bad for her. The family has confirmed this repeatedly just to be cautious."
Song Laosan lowered his eyes and still refused.
Second Aunt Zheng sneered, "See, Dad and Mom, he doesn't want to. If Third Brother really came home, he would definitely listen to you. What's so difficult about looking at a birthmark?"
Song Laosan suddenly stood up and was about to walk out. Qiao Xianglan didn't understand why and hurriedly chased after him.
Old Mrs. Zheng walked with difficulty, leaning on a cane. "Lao San, Lao San, where are you going? Mom knows it's you. Why don't you want to show everyone your birthmark? Don't leave. Mom finally found you. Don't leave home again..."
Song Lao San's feet seemed to be locked tightly. Old Lady Zheng's words really moved him, but...
"Don't go, Third Brother."
Old Mrs. Zheng caught up with them, panting, with gray hair on her temples, which made Old Third Song feel very sad.
"I......."
"Third brother, if you don't want to see it, then don't look. Mother knows it's you, and Mother believes you."
Aunt Zheng was secretly resentful and gnashed her teeth as she said, "Mom, don't be confused. He is not my third brother!"
Old Mrs. Zheng was furious. "If you keep your mouth shut, go back to your home. We in the Zheng family won't keep you. Your father and I are still alive, so we won't let you make the decision."
These words were very harsh. Second Aunt Zheng's face turned extremely ugly, and the way she looked at Song Lao San and the others made her want to eat them.
After a while, Song Laosan looked back and met the concerned expression of Old Lady Zheng. His thoughts were churning in his mind, and finally he pulled down a piece of clothes from his shoulder.
After seeing the scene clearly, everyone gasped and finally understood why Song Lao San insisted on not showing everyone the location of the birthmark.
Especially Aunt Zheng, who had been forcing him, looked pale.
She knew that as the instigator, she would be in trouble from today onwards as long as Song Lao San was around.
Song Lao San is actually the missing third master of the Zheng family!
How is that possible!
He really came back.
