"Those siblings indeed have had a significant change in their family, but that Jing'er was sold by her biological father early on as a concubine to a wealthy man in the neighboring town. Later, when her family's business failed and her biological father passed away, her stepmother also drove her brother out. Jing'er is someone else's runaway concubine, and she fled back to our Qingshan Town with her brother!"
Of course, Lin Sanshui's guess was not wrong. The reason why the siblings ended up in jail was indeed related to her.
Because it was she who sent Qingyue to report to Jing'er's husband's family, that wealthy man then came looking for her, and accused Jing'er of running away privately.
Back then, when Jing'er's father sent her to the wealthy man, he received quite a few benefits in return.
Now, if she wants to regain her freedom, she must naturally return all those benefits to the wealthy man.
