"What will you do after your brother's illness is cured?" Jian Shichu asked, "How do you plan to settle your brother?"
"I..." Yang Meng choked for a moment and said with difficulty, "I... I can send him to an orphanage, or find someone to adopt him..."
Jian Shichu's slender fingers rubbed the rim of the cup as he glanced at him, "As far as I know, children from Quyang Country aren't worth much, especially since your brother is already four or five years old, old enough to understand things. Families without children usually wouldn't adopt someone like him. It would be very difficult to find a suitable family to adopt him. As for orphanages... the conditions in Quyang Country's orphanages are terrible, chaotic in management. Every year, countless children in orphanages die from illnesses or are abducted by traffickers. Do you think your brother can grow up safely in such a place?"
Yang Meng knelt on the ground, tears shimmering in his eyes, his heart heavy with sorrow.
Yes.
