Madam Ruan laughed in a silly way and leaned close to Mo Daoyan, whispering mysteriously, "Could it be that Uncle can't have children anymore?"
Mo Daoyan quickly interrupted her, "Don't spout nonsense about things that don't have a shred of evidence, if elder brother hears this, he definitely won't let you off."
"Tsk! Clearly he has no son, yet we aren't allowed to talk about it, what kind of logic is that?" Madam Ruan scoffed disdainfully, "Asking him to spare a little silver for our son to attend the Academy and he's not even happy about it? Hmph! A dying household, when his time comes, I want to see who will mourn for him."
"Not having a son and being unable to have children, those are two different things, besides, elder brother is in his prime, his passing is a very long way off, who plans that far ahead?"
"I think it's almost certain, it must be related to having children."
