Chapter 47: Jiang Zuo's Letter
That evening, after night had fallen, Blacksmith Li met with Jiang Zuo's parents again in their guest room.
"Boss Li, this is our little girl, Qingling. I was too worked up this evening and forgot to introduce her. Please forgive me, Boss Li."
Jiang Rulin said apologetically to Blacksmith Li after they entered the room.
"Qingling, a fine name. She looks clever, not dazed like Jiang Zuo was as a child. And Jiang, no need to be so formal. I'm ten years older than you both, so just call me Li."
Blacksmith Li glanced at the girl they had brought with them. She looked to be about twelve years old.
Hearing the girl's name, Blacksmith Li understood. They must have been afraid their daughter would end up like Jiang Zuo, which was why they had chosen a name like that.
"In that case... Li."
Jiang Rulin and Zuo Qing'e exchanged a glance before respectfully addressing him as such.
Both of them were puzzled. More than ten years ago, they had simply called him Boss Li.
