Newborn babies all look alike. Mother Lu had given birth prematurely, and Zeng Shuhui's pregnancy had been so fraught with hardship under her mother-in-law's abuse that even though her child was born full-term, she was unexpectedly similar in size to Mother Lu's premature baby.
Seeing that even the maids of the Lu Family were dressed in wealthy luxury, she made a terrible mistake in a single moment of misguided judgment.
Mother Lu could not comprehend it. "That was the child you suffered to bring into this world. How could you bear to give her away to someone else? You only saw my wealth and status. But what if I had been cruel of heart? What if my household were full of treacherous schemes? Such a tiny baby... she might not have even survived. She is your own flesh and blood!"
