Thinking about all the trouble these past two days, Ancient Wen Heng was starting to regret making the trip himself. Even if he had just sent the housekeeper, no one would have found fault with it.
"Mother found this man for her. You should remember him—Shi Dayong, who fled the famine with us.
He's in Xinkeng Village, not far from us. Apparently, his wife didn't make it during the flight, leaving him with two children.
Plus, he has a connection to our family. The last time Father was abandoned at the village entrance and nearly froze to death, he was lucky enough to run into them and have his life saved."
"So this is considered a life-saving debt. Is Mother-in-law really trying to repay it?" With no one else in the room, Jin Qianqian spoke her mind freely, saying whatever came to her.
