Lady Li said, "I heard from Chuan that you weren't mute as a child, and for some unknown reason, you became mute. It's good that you can speak now... Oh, can you hear now, too?"
"Yes. I wasn't actually deaf, but when I was in town... I got injured. You know about it. It was temporary deafness, and it's already gone."
Lady Li was tactful and didn't mention Su Qingyue being severely beaten for stealing in town. "It's great news for the Xiao Family that you can hear and speak now. They are really poor. How are the Xiao Family's three sons doing? Chuan hasn't bought anything from me in a while."
"My second brother was bitten by a poisonous snake, and my third brother sometimes faints, so he's been lying on the bed these days."
"Ah?" Lady Li looked surprised and immediately sympathized, "So many things have happened to the Xiao Family. The fourth son has been paralyzed for four years. The three brothers are all down, and the Xiao Family doesn't have any fields. How will they survive?"
