Hearing this, Old Man Cao slapped Old Lady Cao hard, glared at her, and said angrily, "You are so old, how come your eyesight is not working well anymore!"
Old Lady Cao woke up as if from a dream, and cursed inwardly why the maids were all dressed so well. Then she continued, "It's all because of this girl that I'm so angry. I'm almost crying my eyes out!"
Seeing that the two of them really had no rank, Jiang Li was still cursing Qin Ji in his heart, thinking that he must have been kicked in the head by a donkey for finding such people.
Unexpectedly, just as he turned around, he heard a woman's voice, "Auntie Cao, Uncle Cao, why are you here?"
The woman got off the carriage and ran straight to the herbal medicine shop, appearing to be in a hurry.
Jiang Li looked closely and found that it was Zhou.
"What are you doing here?"
Bai Zhi glared at her, thinking that this woman must be up to no good, and quickly started to question her.
"Princess, I'm..." Zhou looked embarrassed. She helped the two people up and pretended to whisper, "Ah, Aunt Cao, Uncle Cao, I've told you all, Jiang Li is now the Princess of Jingling. We can't afford to offend her. Just listen and let's go back to the Jiang Mansion first, okay?"

Back then, your father had a female confidante in Tianxianglou, and he later redeemed her and settled her outside. Not long after, you were born. Unexpectedly, your mother died of an acute illness, and your father had no choice but to give you to the First Madam to raise, and even announced to the public that you were her daughter."
"Your maternal grandfather and his family have been in their hometown for years. It wasn't until last year when someone in the village quit their job in the capital and returned home that they learned your mother had passed away. Worried that you would end up homeless, they walked for a year before finally reaching the capital. When your father found out about this, he didn't want to cause you any trouble, so he wanted to give them some money and send them back home. But he didn't keep a close eye on them, and they ended up here."
"What?!"
Now everyone had no time to queue up. According to Jiang Li's stepmother, Jiang Li's biological mother was not the late Jiang family's wife, but a prostitute? Or was she Jiang Sheng's mistress?
