They didn’t let the carriage enter the Zhu Village but had the coachman wait for them at the village entrance. Then, they entered Zhu Village.
As they entered Zhu Village, Jiang Yue lowered her voice and asked Xue Yan, “Do you know exactly when your father found you?”
“l know.” Xue Yan nodded and also suppressed his voice. “Many people in our village know that it was on the twentieth of April.”
It was no secret that he was adopted and on which day he was adopted.
His family didn’t hide it from him, so he knew everything.
“At that time, there was work in a town on the edge of the county. There were many people, so it would only be half a day’s work. The chief saw that our village was poor, so he took on this job.
“He was afraid that if this job were not done well, it would be even more difficult to find work for the people in the village in the future, so he found some people who were especially good at hard labor in the village. They all went before dawn, including my father.
“After he finished, he came back with the others at noon. He picked me up on the road back to Pingan Town at the edge of the county. The others saw it too, but they all thought it was difficult for their families to support themselves and were unwilling to bring me home. Only my father carried me home.” Xue Yan continued to speak in a low voice,
Jiang Yue nodded and said, “This means that there are many people who can prove where your father adopted you and what day he adopted you. If Laicai also says that he threw you there, everything can be connected.”
“Yes. At that time, other than the jade pendant on me, the clothes I wore and the swaddling cloth that wrapped me were all of high quality.
“My mother was always reluctant to throw away good things, regardless of whether they would be used in the future. I remember that when Hehua first became pregnant, my mother even told me that she wanted to take out the small clothes and swaddling cloth that I wore at that time and give them to the child.
“She was already very happy to make clothes and other things for the baby. She told my mother not to use it. She even said that this was the first child of this generation and that she had to take it seriously.
“She asked my mother to spend some money to buy some clothes from the town. Even if the cloth was not very good, it was still considered new. It could also be considered a good start for the children of this generation in the family.
“My mother felt that it was true, so she never mentioned this matter again. She went to town to buy some clothes the day after.” Xue Yan nodded his head slightly and said in an even more hushed tone,
This was all before she became a member of this family, so Jiang Yue naturally did not know.
Now that she knew, Jiang Yue nodded. “So, later, we have to ask your mother where the swaddling clothes and clothes you were wearing when you were adopted are. We have to find them. This is very likely to be very obvious evidence.’
The Empress would be able to recognize the clothes he was wearing. However, if Ji Yi had changed them to avoid being hunted down, the Empress might not be able to. If that happened, they could not use that as evidence.
Therefore, it could only be said to be a possibility.
Moreover, he had already said that the fabric was of high quality, so it was naturally very likely that the Empress would be able to recognize it.
“Let’s look for it ourselves. It should still be in the room where my mother used to live in the old house. There are many old things that my mother didn’t bring to the new house.” After a pause, his voice became even lower. “ I never thought that I would look for my biological parents.”
He was afraid that his family would be sad when he found his biological parents..
