Gu Mei also asked herself why she had to do this.
The silver jewelry and clothes in her hands totaled more than forty taels.
If she was frugal, it might last ten years.
But she still gave away the silver.
She felt that perhaps she was atoning for her sins.
Atoning for the sin of abandoning her younger siblings in a past life, and harming her brother's sister in this life.
She knew that Yun Jiao and Xiao Chuan were doing well now; they didn't need her atonement.
So she decided to treat her remaining family well.
Thinking of Yun Jiao, Gu Mei felt a sense of shame and had no place to hide.
She had asked herself countless times, if she and Yun Jiao were in reversed situations, would she save Yun Jiao?
Of course not.
She would take the five hundred taels of silver, buy beautiful clothes and jewelry, maybe buy some land; in short, she would rely on that silver to live a life free of worries.
As for what happened to her younger siblings, what did it have to do with her?
