Qin Liuxi changed the topic rather quickly, leaving Gongbo Cheng somewhat awkward.
"You noticed?" He took a sip of tea, seeming a bit guilty.
Qin Liuxi pointed to her eyes: "Just reading a face, my eyes are still pretty sharp."
Gongbo Cheng hesitated.
Qin Liuxi smiled and said, "You're reaching the age of fifty, with no children under your care, you should have had a child long ago, otherwise who would you leave this vast wealth to?"
"It's just some money, why say vast wealth?" Gongbo Cheng scoffed lightly, "This child was just an accident."
Qin Liuxi almost choked on her tea and said, "Don't say such things outside, or you might end up in a sack. The well-fed don't know the hunger of the starving, it could incite hatred."
Gongbo Cheng chuckled and returned to the previous topic, saying, "The Saint is foolish, and many officials below are corrupt and exploitative, merchants are often oppressed, it's indeed harder than before."
