"You should remember the man Mother found for her. It's Shi Dayong, who fled the famine with us back then.

"Furthermore, this man has some history with our family. Last time, when Father was dumped at the village entrance and nearly froze to death, he happened to run into them and was saved."
"Since he saved his life, is your mother really doing this to repay the favor?" Now that there were no outsiders in the room, Jin Qianqian spoke without any reservations, saying whatever came to mind.
