Upon hearing this, Si Junhong was stunned. She grew up in a poor family and later married a scholar who was also thrifty and managed the household well.
Later, because of Si Junshan's relationship, her scholar husband became the Tongzhi of Hengzhou Prefecture, and the family accumulated some wealth.
Last time, in order to save Si Jinhao, she gave all her five thousand taels of silver, plus the ten thousand taels she borrowed from the old lady, to the second girl!
