Chapter 2073: Chapter 2073: Turns Out They Aren’t Related

"If it belongs to her, then she should be able to enter whenever she wants, right? Why does it seem like this place is off-limits to her?"

"Oh, it’s yours, huh?" Ding Rong replied.

She just didn’t want to see Lin Caisang, that’s all. If it weren’t for Lin Caisang, she would still be at leisure outside. Why would she need to work every day and deal with these herbs?

"It is mine."

Lin Caisang stated directly to her.

"You, on the other hand, I’m surprised to see you here the one time I come in. You’ve been rather well-behaved lately."

Ding Rong: "!"

She thought, could she afford not to be well-behaved?

The consequence of not behaving was suffering in the Boundless Prison!

A few times were enough, if she couldn’t control her own mouth again, then she might as well smash her head against a block of tofu and be done with it.

"You’re here, are you looking to pick some herbs? Need my help with that?" She took a deep breath, calmed herself, and asked.

"Wow, your attitude has improved quite a bit," Lin Caisang raised an eyebrow and looked at her with amusement.

It seemed that she had had enough of the Boundless Prison and learned her lesson, no longer daring to be arrogant in Lin Caisang’s presence.

Upon hearing this, Ding Rong pursed her lips and remained silent.

"All right, I’m not here to pick herbs. I came to ask you some questions, let’s find a place to sit," Lin Caisang said to her, then turned to Sui Zimo.

"Zimo, you..."

"I’ll go find some herbs, be careful on your own," Sui Zimo said to her before turning around to leave.

Ding Rong at the side: "..."

This was clearly Lin Caisang’s territory, yet Sui Zimo felt the need to remind Lin Caisang to be careful?

This was obviously a warning to her, not to lay a hand on Lin Caisang. But even if she had the guts, she wouldn’t dare to attack Lin Caisang here.

She could imagine that before she even lifted a finger, she would surely end up in the Boundless Prison again.

"What do you want to ask?"

She took another deep breath and looked at Lin Caisang before asking.

"It’s nothing major, I just want to ask, you constantly claimed that the wife of the Sky City’s Lord is your aunt, so why have you never mentioned that the Old Madam also comes from the Ding Residence?"

Lin Caisang inquired.

Hearing this question, Ding Rong was momentarily startled but quickly recovered.

"Her? What does she count for coming out of the Ding Residence? There’s no blood relation," Ding Rong replied flatly to Lin Caisang. That Old Madam from the City Lord’s Mansion, which of the Ding Family would care to say more to her? Back then...

"She’s my grandfather’s sworn sister, not related by blood, but in name, she’s still a legitimate daughter of the Ding Family. Only, these matters are not known to outsiders, but our Ding Family and the City Lord’s Mansion are aware," she said.

"So she’s not related by blood," Lin Caisang finally understood why Ding Rong had never mentioned this Old Madam who should have had more influence in the City Lord’s Mansion.

"If she’s not related by blood, then how did she manage to marry into the City Lord’s Mansion?" she asked.

According to what her father had mentioned, the Old Madam did not get her position through her aunt but was married into the mansion after the previous wife passed away, and she was welcomed by the previous City Lord.

Moreover, this Old Madam was not favored by the former City Lord in the past.

A woman who was neither a legitimate nor even a concubine-born daughter of the Ding Family, managed to become the wife of the Lord of Sky City, where matching family status is critical?

This was indeed quite extraordinary.
