Rebirth 90: The Long Road to Finding a Son

Thinking of the eldest daughter-in-law who was a traitor to her parents, Mrs. Qian was furious. Such a big thing happened at home today. She didn't care about the second son and his wife being arrested. She was even indifferent to her own son's affairs. She was really a cold-blooded animal.

If we confirm that she stole the money, we must not let her off easily once we catch her.

When she thought about her grandson Qian Longbin who might be starving in the police station, or even getting beaten, she felt distressed. It was all the fault of that nagging Qian Longchuan. Wasn't he just beaten? What's the big deal? She even sent her grandson to jail!

Thinking of Qian Longchuan, Old Lady Qian began to hate him again. The second son and his wife raised him, but instead of repaying their kindness, they turned their kindness into hatred and harmed the Qian family. If she didn't take revenge, Old Lady Qian would be so angry that she couldn't eat recently.

Thinking about this, Mrs. Qian came up with an idea and said to the police, "Now that you mention it, there are indeed two suspicious people in the family. One is my eldest daughter-in-law, her name is Yu Min. Today, she found an excuse to quarrel with her family and then went out. She has not come back yet.

There is another child from my second son’s family, named Qian Longchuan. My second son took him in with good intentions, provided him with food, clothing, and schooling. But when he found out that he was not his biological son, he turned his back on me and even had a fight with my eldest grandson, pretending to be lame, which resulted in my eldest grandson being arrested. Qian Longchuan also ran away. I think he might have stolen my money and decided not to come back. What an ungrateful person…”

The police officers from the township police station did not know the situation of the Qian family. They listened carefully to Mrs. Qian's analysis, took notes, and listed Yu Min and Qian Longchuan as key suspects.

After taking the statement, the two police officers left Qian's house and began to implement the next steps.

When asked about the whereabouts of Yu Min and Qian Longchuan, the adults in the Qian family were clueless. It was only when Qian Niandi mentioned that Qian Longchuan was seriously injured and might be in a nearby hospital that the police officers saved themselves a lot of trouble.

She heard that the police were here to investigate the missing money, so she didn't take it seriously and played with her two younger brothers in the yard. When the police were about to leave and said they were looking for Qian Longchuan to investigate the situation, she provided clues, but she didn't know that Qian Longchuan became a suspect because of Mrs. Qian's false accusation.

----

The conditions in the county hospital were limited, so Qian Longchuan was placed in a three-person ward. In addition to Qian Longchuan, there was an old man from the county who was hospitalized because he accidentally fell and broke his bones. The other bed was empty, and no other patient had moved in yet.

The old man has been in the hospital for three days. His fracture is not serious and his leg is in a cast. He will be able to be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate in a few days.

He looked at Qian Longchuan's bruised face and asked kindly, "How did this child get injured like this?"

Wu Xing replied: "My son met a gangster who robbed him for money. My son didn't have any money on him, so he was beaten up like this by the gangster."

The old man and the family members sighed and said, "Where did this happen? Has the little gangster been caught?"

Wu Xing replied: "He's been caught. The little hooligan is from Luojiagou. His surname is Qian, and his name is Qian Longbin. He's about seventeen or eighteen years old now. He looks decent, but he's a nuisance. If any girl runs into him in the future, it'll be bad luck."

Zhao Hongjun also added fuel to the fire, "I heard that the little bastard is not doing his job all day, and he relies on his good looks to hook up with nearby female students. If your relatives or friends have teenage girls, you have to keep an eye on them."

When the old man's daughter heard what Wu Xing and Zhao Hongjun said, she quickly nodded and said, "Oh, if that's the case, this little rascal is really doing a lot of harm to people. We must spread the word among our relatives and friends when we get back."

Qian Longchuan, who was always cautious, listened to the conversation in the ward. Regardless of the bruises on his face, he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth. Such a light smile made him realize that he had never laughed so easily since he was a child. The feeling of depression that he had been accustomed to for a long time disappeared inexplicably after he confirmed that he could not return to the Qian family.

The words "my son" uttered by Wu Xing touched Qian Longchuan's heart deeply. Even before the paternity test report came out, he couldn't help but want to call him "Dad".

Old Mrs. Qian didn't know that while she was framing other people's children, her eldest grandson would soon become a celebrity in the county.

The reason was simple: the old man had many relatives and friends, and his children all worked in large units and factories in the county. He knew dozens of colleagues, if not hundreds. The news spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and soon it fermented in the small county.

There were also people who had relatives in Luojiagou. After asking their relatives, they learned that the eldest grandson of the Qian family was idle and was actually taken away by the police. At the same time, they also heard about the bad things done by the eldest and second sons of the Qian family.

Therefore, the "deeds" about Qian Longbin publicized by Wu Xing and Zhao Hongjun were soon believed by everyone, and the reputation of the entire Qian family was ruined.

The most direct consequence of this incident was that when Old Lady Qian asked people to introduce a partner to her eldest grandson, everyone avoided her. Qian Longbin, who had never been worried about finding a wife, became a person who had difficulty getting married.

Qian Longchuan's examination results showed that one of his lower legs had a comminuted fracture and he needed to undergo surgery, but due to soft tissue damage, he would have to wait for some time before the surgery could be performed.

Wu Xing was worried that the county hospital's technology was not up to standard, so he planned to take Qian Longchuan to a city hospital after two days of stable treatment in this hospital.

Although the paternity test results have not yet come out, Wu Xing has already completely treated Qian Longchuan as his own son.

Master Chen brought them to the county hospital, but when he saw that there was no one else who needed his help, he left and agreed to pick them up to take them to the city in two days.

Not long after Master Chen left, the police who had returned from Qian's home found the hospital and came to talk to Qian Longchuan to find out what happened.

Wu Xing and Zhao Hongjun were furious when they heard the police's intention. They knew that the Qian family was not easy to deal with, but they didn't expect that they would bite back and accuse the child they had worked so hard to find of stealing money. They absolutely could not tolerate this.
