Chapter 1062: 412: Cao Qing's Unexpected Joy_3

Cao Qing's face lit up with surprise, "Old Madam, how did you know our family's surname is Sun?"

"You sure are something, kid. If your surname is Sun, then I haven't got the wrong person. But your luck isn't great. The Sun family here has had a rough year, too. The good son that was studying got into gambling. How much savings could our common folks possibly have to gamble away? Supporting a scholar is already tough enough, and now he's racked up a huge debt. The gambling house came knocking and seized their house. It wasn't long ago that someone bought the place."

Upon hearing this, Cao Qing's heart tightened. Zhan Qiao had mentioned in passing that the Crown Princess suspected that the involvement in gambling mentioned by the Shi Family was somehow connected to Prince Yi. Now this other family was also displaced because of gambling—could it be such a coincidence?
