The scars haven't disappeared, and you can probably tell they're cuts and burns, probably from working.
There were also many frostbite on his hands, feet, and even legs. His body was skinny, and only his face looked okay.
The original owner's parents gambled and lost all the betrothal gifts that should have been given to the original owner. Then they said that he was the eldest brother, and the eldest brother was like a father, so he had to take the responsibility of raising his younger brothers and sisters.
In short, before coming to the Zhong family, the original owner was a poor country kid who was exploited by his parents, sucked dry by his younger siblings, and brainwashed thoroughly.
Most importantly, in this era where "filial piety is the most important virtue", even children's resistance will be labeled as unfilial.

After the maid who delivered the bird's nest porridge left, Xiaotao, who was serving beside her, said that it was Chunlan, who was in charge of the kitchen in the eldest young master's courtyard.
And just now when Bai Chi was eating, Chunlan asked her about Bai Chi's situation.
