Chapter 178: The Black-hearted Mother

Upon hearing these words, Guizhi's mother, seizing the opportunity, pointed at Granny Wang and shouted, "Oh, you knew she was ill, yet you still insisted on selling her to Madam Xie. You really have ill-intentions!"

Granny Wang's guilt flashed through her eyes, but she quickly hid it. She tensed up her neck and said, "How would I know she was sick? I haven't heard anything about it since she was a child. Maybe Ruozhu is mistaken?"

Bai Ruozhu glanced at the two of them unhappily, and said, "Why are you all arguing? She just regained her strength. What if she falls ill again because of your scare?"

The sight of Xi Ya when she's sick frightened both of them. After whispering to each other, they finally quieted down. For a while, the only sound in the room was Xi Ya's soft sobbing.
