Everyone understood by now.
So the second daughter mentioned by Lu Heng was the one sent away by the Liu couple.
"See, I was right, wasn't I? That Liu couple, it's not just a simple case of missing their daughter."
"Poor little girl, if she hadn't been born into that family, she might have grown up just fine."
"All three daughters in this family are unfortunate. The oldest has to work to support the family from a young age, the second was given away, and the third didn't even live past one year old."
"Who's to blame but their gambling addict father?"
"The gambling dog must die! The gambling dog must die! The gambling dog must die! Important things must be repeated thrice!"
"I mean, is having a son that critical?"
"This isn't about having sons or not; it's clearly about saving face!"
"Right, as per Old Daoist's saying, it's purely because the Liu husband was envious of his brothers for having sons, so he always wanted one."
"So, did this old couple eventually have a son?"
