Bai Ruozhu and her older brother listened clearly outside, both feeling somewhat saddened; they had no idea such old events existed, and their mother had never mentioned them.
In the room, Lin Ping'er's voice sounded again, "I've always been prideful and didn't want to mention the disgraceful things of my natal family to the children. I just said they were mean and didn't want to have dealings with them. But my eldest nephew and his wife are good people. Back then, he stopped me and secretly gave me two taels of silver, saying that all the money at home was managed by his mother and that these were savings he and his wife put aside, urging me to use it for Ruozhu's medical treatment."
