The more she longed for this motherly love before, the more she hates it now.
Aunt Qian was also startled by the hatred in Qian Mingda's eyes. She unconsciously took a step back and said while crying, "I didn't know. I always thought you were my biological child. In the countryside, what child doesn't work? Your brother has been weak since he was a child. I wanted him to work, but his body wouldn't allow it. Otherwise, we would have to spend money to treat his illness. Our family is poor and we don't have any money."
Qian Mingda sneered and said without any mercy, "Qian Mingli is weak. How dare you say that? He has been sick several times since he was a child. He is as strong as an ox. If he is weak, then I am even weaker than him."
Aunt Qian felt a little guilty, but she had no choice. Her eldest son was told by the doctor that he would have to be taken good care of after birth, or he would die young. But in the countryside, they didn't have the means to do that; being able to eat their fill was considered good enough.
She overheard a nurse say that there was a woman in the next ward who gave birth at the same time as her, and no one was with her. So she had a little scheme and switched babies, since newborns all look pretty much the same anyway.
But she also understood that she couldn't admit that she had switched the babies.
Otherwise, you'll end up in jail, eating peanuts.
Qian Mingli looked at his crying mother and quickly helped her up. He glanced at his brother and said disapprovingly, "Brother, no matter how wrong Mother is, she still raised you well. Besides, even if the baby was switched at birth, it's the hospital's responsibility. What mother would be willing to let someone else raise her own child?"
His eyes pleaded.
Upon hearing this, Song Zhenzhen exploded and angrily said, "Your mother is that kind of person. She can't raise her own child, so she leaves him to us to raise. Back then, to treat the child's illness, Yongjun and I spent all our monthly salaries and incurred a lot of debt. You think you can just forgive her like that? Who do you think you are? Even if the King of Heaven comes, I will sue her."
A few days ago, she learned that her daughter-in-law was pregnant. She was overjoyed and rushed to take care of her daughter-in-law. On the way, she met Qian Mingda and learned that the son she had raised since childhood was not her biological son. He had been maliciously switched because her family was well-off and had money to treat the child's illness and raise him.
How outrageous, how absurd, that this happened before her eyes. She didn't want to believe it, but Qian Mingda's eyebrows and eyes were almost exactly the same as her husband's, and his lips were even more like hers.
She investigated the matter that very day and even secretly came to Yunxi Brigade to inquire about the Qian family. She heard that the Qian family had treated Qian Mingda badly since he was a child, and that Chen Rui, whom she had raised from childhood, was very similar to the Qian family. She was convinced of this and decided to come here today to resolve the matter.
She also loved Chen Rui very much, after all, she had raised him from childhood to adulthood, but she couldn't let Qian Mingda suffer, since he was the child she had longed for and carried for ten months to give birth to.
It was because she hadn't protected him properly that he was harmed at birth. Thinking of the suffering her biological son had endured over the years, she felt intense hatred.
Her fingers trembled as she grabbed her husband's clothes and said, "Yongjun, let's call the police? Let them investigate and find out who's responsible."
"Don't call the police!" Aunt Qian shouted shrilly.
Song Zhenzhen looked at her biological son.
Aunt Qian immediately realized that the decision was entirely in Qian Mingda's hands. She rushed over, hugged him, and cried, "Mingda, you must believe your mother. I would never do such a thing!"
Qian Mingda's voice was cold: "Since you didn't do it, then call the police."
Aunt Qian's body went limp, and she burst into tears.
At this point, everyone around understood what was going on.
Aunt Qian must have switched the children on purpose, otherwise why wouldn't she dare to call the police?
The crowd sighed and looked at Aunt Qian with mocking eyes. How could there be such a wicked person who would dare to do something so contrary to the laws of nature?
