Chapter 53 - 53

At that time, Zhu Qiujie was still young, only twelve years old. Back then, the Xiao Family's third son had not yet fallen ill, the fourth son had not yet become paralyzed, and even Xiao Yishan's face had not yet been scratched by bear blind. Yishan was fifteen, actually quite good at hunting. It was originally arranged with the Zhu Family that Zhu Qiujie would live in the Xiao Family for a few years and then marry one of the Xiao Family's brothers, even changing her surname to Xiao. If the eldest son's face had not been disfigured and the third and fourth sons hadn't been ill, the Xiao Family would have been a suitable match. Zhu Qiujie stayed with the Xiao Family for three months, and at the time, Ministry Councillor Li's family in the town happened to be hiring maids, so she went to work as a maid."
