They could only tell the public that Xia Yayun had fallen into the river by accident and was saved by Master Dong. At the critical moment of life and death, she was saved, which was why she was forced to marry him.
However, no matter what, the marriage of a third-rank official's legitimate daughter as a concubine was enough to make many people lecture their children.
Xie Qiao sighed in private but did not make any comments.
She only wondered if Xia Yanyun would regret what she had done in the future.
Now that the bet was over, the New Year was close.
Xie Niushan would probably not return until the beginning of spring.
However, the Xie family had a visitor at that moment.
Xie Qiao changed into a new set of clothes and was dignified. She brought a pair of younger siblings to welcome the Lin family.
Xie Pinghuai did not seem to care, while Xie Xi was obedient, like a little doll.
Ms. Lin was born in an ordinary family.
