If Miss Ni hadn't gone to find her brother with complete disregard for herself, he might already be gone by now. No matter how heartbroken everyone else might be.
The so-called parents of the Xia Family continue to live in luxury, eating and drinking well. They do not lack sons, nor daughters. What they lack is silver.
So, they spent the money that was meant to save the life of their child born of a concubine with a clear conscience. It's ludicrous!
Such people, they still have the gall to live, to be parents!
Zi Su also sighed.
"Your Majesty, speaking of which, how many parents, upon having children, will drown them the moment they see it's a daughter! Or, when the child reaches seven or eight, they trade her for some silver to get by! And then they continue to have more children! To pass on the family line, to pass on the family line, when the household is too poor to even lift the pot lid, what's there to pass on!"
As Zi Su spoke, she began to cry.
