The group walked out of the Ma Family, and Mrs. Chai couldn't help but sigh, "I was wondering why Sister Li would chase you out of the house. It turns out you're not her biological child! You said you encountered bandits on your way back, and after falling severely ill due to injuries, this..."
Mrs. Chai trailed off, realizing that falling ill meant spending a lot of money on medicine in the future, which would burden a family. Some families might even abandon their biological children in such situations, let alone someone who was taken in...
Mrs. Chai sheepishly glanced at Li Qingmu, thinking that even a fair judge would struggle to arbitrate family matters. This was a Li family affair, something that outsiders like them shouldn't meddle in.
"Help, help—"
Suddenly, a person appeared on the horizon, running frantically towards them. The snow had stopped by now, allowing them to see the runner's face clearly.
"Xiang Yin?"
