Yueyao hesitated for a long time before deciding to tell Tingzheng the truth, thinking that even if Tingzheng might hold it against her mother, the fact of her birth mother's origin was something that could not be erased. If she didn't tell Tingzheng now, in a few years when he grew up, he would find out all the same, "Tingzheng, your birth mother was a very good person. When she was young, she was also from an official's family like ours. It's just that her family met with disaster and in the end, she was sold off. But she remained chaste, not like those others. If you must blame, blame her misfortune for her family's catastrophe."
Tingzheng's expression relaxed a lot after hearing this. Compared to Tingchao, Tingzheng was more inclined to believe Yueyao, "Then how did she give birth to me?"
