The expression on his face was fully caught by Fourth Master Xiao, who paused for a moment and said with certainty, "Moreover, your birth mother is not of low status!"
Not of low status? What does that mean?
Min appeared confused. He had only heard that his birth mother was just an actor and eventually eloped with someone else. Why would his father affirm with such conviction that she was not of low status?
Is there something he didn't know?
Before he could confirm again, Fourth Master Xiao had already stood up: "Go back, rest early!" Min was taken aback and asked, "Father, what about my punishment?"
Fourth Master Xiao walked over, his tall figure standing before him, then reached out to pat his shoulder and said, "Since you admitted your mistake, then it won't be repeated!"
Does this mean the punishment is waived?
