Traveling through the ages with the hotel, being doted on by four brothers

Chapter 233 Your brother is my husband’s illegitimate son

Seeing that Zhou's mother ignored him, Zhou's father had no choice but to go to the kitchen and make himself a bowl of plain noodles. He then brought it out and sat at the table to eat. Zhou's mother controlled her temper and asked, "Besides me, do you have other women outside? How many are they? How much do you pay them every month?"

Father Zhou looked at Mother Zhou suspiciously, a little puzzled, "Why do you have such an idea? Don't you know whether I have any women other than you? Did someone tell you something to sow discord between us?"

Zhou's mother snorted coldly, "You won't cry until you see the coffin, right? Ask for leave tomorrow and go to a place with me. I'll show you the evidence."

"Go if you want to. I want to see who is so shameless that he wants to affect our family relationships." His sons are already so old, they are old enough to have grandchildren, but he ends up doing this to them. Doesn't he want them to spend their old age in peace and enjoy their grandchildren?
"Hmph!" Zhou's mother snorted fiercely and turned back to the house.

Ever since Zhou Ji called and said he saw someone who looked like his father, Zhou's mother had been sleeping in a separate bed from him. This was a house that the factory had allocated, and it wasn't as big as their old house, so it was unrealistic to sleep in a separate room. She couldn't move into her son's room, could she? Then where would her son live when he came back?
So they didn't have separate rooms, but separate beds. If it weren't for the fact that Zhou's father was old, she would have wanted him to sleep on the floor. Such a disgusting man was not worthy of sleeping with her.

The next morning, Zhou's father went to the factory to ask for leave, and then he and Zhou's mother took a train to the county town. After getting off the train, they took a bus to the town, and then rented an ox cart to go to the Yong'an production team.

Father Zhou sat on the ox cart, frowning slightly. He was very sure that he had never been here. Why did Mother Zhou bring him here?

When they arrived at the Yong'an Production Team, Zhou's mother took Zhou's father straight to the educated youth site, and then asked Zhou Ji to take her to Xia Qi's home to meet Xia Qi. Zhou's father knew where Zhou Ji was working in the countryside, but he had never been there in person. He did not expect that his son was here.

Zhou Ji also wanted to find out the truth, and more importantly, he wanted to know whether his father had betrayed his mother, so he quickly packed himself up and took his parents straight to Xia Chan's home halfway up the mountain.

Xia Chan and her brothers had just finished their meal and were about to wash the dishes when they heard a knock on the door. Xia Chan went to open the door and saw Zhou Ji and a strange man and woman standing outside. She was a little surprised and asked, "Zhou Zhiqing, what are you doing here?"

And are they familiar with each other?
"Little girl, take a quick look at this uncle. Does he look familiar? Has he ever been to your production team before?" Mother Zhou eagerly pulled Father Zhou in front of Xia Chan and asked excitedly.

She didn't expect that the tractor driver also lived here. Could it be that this girl was also her husband's illegitimate daughter?

Xia Chan looked at the middle-aged uncle in front of him in confusion. He had handsome features and was tall. He must have been a handsome young man when he was young. "He looks familiar, as if I have seen him somewhere before. But I can tell you for sure that he has never been to my house. If he had been to my house, I would definitely remember him."

Mother Zhou was about to get angry after hearing what Xia Chan said, but when she heard what Xia Chan said next, she didn't know whether she should get angry or not, so she could only say, "Hello, little girl. We are Zhou Ji's parents. We came here today because we have something we want to confirm with your brother. Could you please call your brother out?"

"Brother, someone is looking for you." Xia Chan turned and shouted towards the kitchen.

Then, the four brothers came out from the kitchen.

When Xia Qi appeared, Zhou's father was stunned. She looked so much like him when he was young.

Mother Zhou excitedly pulled Xia Qi over to Zhou's father's side and asked Xia Chan, "Little girl, take a closer look. Do your brother and this uncle look alike?" Xia Chan looked at Xia Qi and Zhou's father carefully, a little confused, "They do look alike. What's going on?"

"Because your brother is my husband's illegitimate son." Zhou's mother said shamelessly.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Xia Qi said seriously and angrily, "My mother is a good woman, she would never do such a thing."

"Yes, my second aunt is a very good person. You are not allowed to slander her reputation." Xia Chan pulled Xia Qi behind him and looked at the three members of the Zhou family with displeasure. No one would be happy if they slandered the second aunt's innocence as soon as they arrived.

Father Zhou said hurriedly, "I really haven't had contact with any woman except you. I can't possibly have a child with anyone else. If I really do something to hurt you and betray you, just let my body be exposed in the wilderness without a burial place, okay?"

"Then how do you explain that this child looks so much like you?"

Xia Chan didn't want to hear anyone say anything that would hurt Xia Qi, but Xia Qi and Zhou's father's appearance also made her realize that things were not that simple. She calmly analyzed, "I think you can go to the clinic or hospital where the child was born and investigate what happened back then. See how many women gave birth there at the time. Did the doctors or nurses accidentally take the wrong baby, or did the elders take the wrong baby because of their old eyesight, or maybe the aunt didn't give birth to just one child, but a pair, and one of them was taken away by the wrong person."

The fact that Zhou's mother was able to teach her son so well also showed that she was not a unreasonable person. Now, after listening to Xia Chan's analysis, she felt that there was some truth to it. After all, when she gave birth to Zhou Ji, she did give birth not far from here.

So we have to investigate the truth before we can speak.

"I'm sorry to trouble you. We'll come back once we have figured out the facts." Then Zhou's mother grabbed Zhou Ji's arm, turned around and left without paying any attention to Zhou's father.

Father Zhou took another deep look at Xia Qi. He was 100% sure that Xia Qi was his son, but he had never touched another woman in his life, nor had he ever been drunk to the point of passing out and being taken advantage of by others, so this child was definitely not born to another woman.

There is a high possibility that he was taken away by the wrong person at birth.

But without a thorough investigation, they have no right to speak. They must demand an investigation into the truth.

Xia Chan closed the door, turned around and saw Xia Qi standing there, so he walked up to Xia Qi, stretched out his hand and took his hand, and said seriously, "Brother, things haven't been figured out yet, don't feel bad, no matter what, you are my brother, we will always be a family, this is a fact that will never change."

Xia Qi nodded, "Yes, we will always be a family, no one can destroy our relationship."

Seeing that Xia Qi didn't take it too seriously, Xia Chan felt relieved.

Her brothers getting married and having children has no impact on her, but if her brother is no longer her brother, she will really collapse into despair, especially if he is the one who understands her the most among her brothers. If she loses this brother, she will really be heartbroken.
