Chapter 286 Birthmark
Chapter 286 Birthmark
Hearing Han Sen's question, Lin Lao, Lin Chao, and Lin Wei all looked delighted.
He finally spoke!
Lin Chaoqiang suppressed his excitement and continued to explain.
It turned out that the Han family had never been to the provincial capital, and Dongshan Village was quite far away from the provincial capital, so when they were searching before, they did not expand the search range much, resulting in Dongshan Village appearing as a hollow area in their search map.
Later, after learning about Han Sen's news, they followed Han Sen's clue and investigated in the reverse direction. They found out that when Han's mother was about to give birth, she was sent to the county hospital due to illness. After the child was born, the doctor announced that the child was very weak and it was uncertain whether he could be raised. Han's mother was extremely sad and cried while holding the child. Han's father was also crying and was discovered by the enemy.
The enemy found them and said that they would arrange a place for the child in the family of a high-ranking official, so that the child would have a great chance of surviving. When the child grew up, they would recognize the child and their family would be able to cross the class barrier and live a good life with the child.
Han's father was smart and was very excited after hearing this. He discussed it with Han's mother for a while and then asked the enemy what they were going to do.
The enemy told him that they would take his child away first, and then return a child to him in two days. They would send him money on time, and asked him to make sure the child survived, and not leave Dongshan Village or see the outside world.
Sure enough, two days later, the enemy brought a child, Han Sen, to him and gave him some money. Han's father and mother took the money and immediately returned to Dongshan Village with the child.
Although Han's parents disliked Han Sen and were concerned about their own son, they were nicer to Han Sen at first because they were supporting him and would receive money on time, making sure he had enough food and clothes, but they didn't care about anything else.
However, when the child who was replaced by the Lin family died, the enemy probably thought that they had cleaned up the situation very cleanly, and even if the Lin family knew about it, they would not be able to find any clues, so they never sent a penny to Han's father and mother.
Han's parents, who had lived a very comfortable life thanks to the money they received on time for raising Han Sen, became very upset when they found out they hadn't received a penny for a long time. They didn't know what had gone wrong and they would never find their little son. Their dream of living a good life was shattered, so they were unwilling to let Han Sen have enough food and clothing. The villagers of Dongshan Village saw what Han Sen went through later.
"If the enemy didn't want me to leave Dongshan Village, then why didn't my father and mother stop me from joining the army, and why didn't I find anyone trying to trip me up after I joined the army?" Han Sen immediately raised his question after hearing this.
When the Su family heard this, they all realized that this was indeed a contradiction.
"When we found this, we had the same question as you," Mr. Fan explained. "Later, we found out that the enemy who exchanged you was found by our army when you were seven or eight years old. He confessed to all the crimes he committed, but he didn't mention the fact that he exchanged you. So after he was sentenced to death, there was no clue at all. This is why you didn't encounter any obstacles when you joined the army."
"As for Han's father and mother," Old Fan said, his mouth curled down, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, "after our people caught them, we asked them about this question. They said that if they kept you at home, they would have to provide you with food and drink, so it would be better to let you go to the army and let the army support you, and you can send the money you earn back to them, so that you won't lose out!"
Han Sen's eyes turned red when he heard this. He looked at them and asked, "Where are Father and Mother Han now?"
"We arrested them," Mr. Li answered directly, "and they are now being sent to a labor camp because they harmed the children of soldiers. They will be sent to labor camps until they die, and they will never be able to leave!"
"He deserves it!" Mother Su was indignant when she heard this. "It's a good thing Han Sen is strong. Otherwise, it's unknown whether he could survive in the hands of those evil people."
"Yes!" Father Su also spoke up. "When Han Sen was little, we found out that Han's parents treated him like that. We couldn't stand it. When we went to talk to them, they said that it was their child and they could treat him however they wanted. It had nothing to do with us outsiders and we shouldn't meddle in other people's business! So no one went to them in person. They just gave Han Sen some food in secret. Plus, the child would go to the back mountain to find food from time to time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have survived those most difficult years."
"It's a good thing Han Sen met you guys later," said Elder Lin in a hoarse voice, looking at Su's parents. "I asked Old Du and Old Li. If it weren't for your family, I can't imagine what Han Sen would be like now, and I wouldn't have the chance to find him."
Having said that, Mr. Lin, together with Lin Chao and Lin Wei, bowed deeply to Su's father, Su's mother and the Su family.
Their action made Su's father and mother stand up quickly, "No, no! Han Sen is such a good kid, and he is our son-in-law. We are a family, so we should treat him well."
"Thank you for taking care of him," Elder Lin said, and then looked at Su Yunyun. "Child, we know you. If it weren't for you, Han Sen's arm would be broken, and he wouldn't be able to return to the army. His talents would be useless!"
"Well..." Su Yunyun didn't know how Han Sen would react to Elder Lin, so she didn't know how to address the old man in front of her. She could only vaguely say, "I like him, so I will naturally treat him well!"
Hearing Su Yunyun's simple words, Elder Lin smiled and said, "Good boy, I can tell you are a good boy from the fact that you sent the prescription to the army!"
Hearing Mr. Lin's praise for her, Su Yunyun didn't know what to say, so she had to look at Han Sen, and saw Han Sen's eyes fixed on her.
There was a storm in his eyes, they were mad, but there was also a deep fragility hidden in them, which made Su Yunyun feel very distressed. Just when she was about to comfort him, she saw that he had regained his composure. However, Su Yunyun noticed from their clasped hands that Han Sen was trembling slightly. She immediately held Han Sen's hand tightly to give him strength.
Han Sen sensed it and smiled at Su Yunyun, telling her that she was fine. Then he looked up at Elder Lin and asked, "Aren't you worried about mistaking someone for someone else?"
"No," Lin Lao answered firmly, "The first time I saw you, I knew you were my third child!"
"You look so much like us! So you must be our little brother." Lin Chao said decisively.
"As long as the three of us stand together, everyone will say that we are brothers." Lin Wei vowed.
"Just based on looks?" Han Sen muttered to himself.
"And your blood type. You're type A," Elder Lin heard what Han Sen said. "If that's not enough, there's one more thing. You three brothers all have a birthmark on your body. It's star-shaped, located on your lower back, the size of a fist, and red. All the boys in our family have this. I believe you have it too!"
Han Sen was shocked when he heard this. Su Yunyun also looked at Han Sen in surprise. Su Ping saw this and asked, "Little sister, does Han Sen really have this birthmark?"
