"Not a single one?"
Bo Yi set down his teacup in surprise.
The two women thought back for a moment, then nodded firmly. "If you mean children born to his wives, then no." After all, none of his wives had lived longer than a year. How could they have had a chance to bear children?
"We have heard that his concubines bore quite a few. But apparently, because they were born to concubines, they weren't valued much in the household. We heard those little ones all died young..."
The middle-aged woman clicked her tongue. "That's why Boss Kang is so busy getting married..." After all, with such a vast estate and business, how could he possibly go without a legitimate heir?
"Then how did his previous wives... pass away?"
"Well..." The middle-aged woman thought hard for a few seconds. "I think we heard they all fell ill..."
All of them?
Bo Yi fell into thought. That made things rather curious.
He finished his tea and politely thanked the two middle-aged women. Taking advantage of their exceptionally high favorability toward him, he also asked them for the exact location of the Kang Family Distillery.
Bo Yi followed the street in the direction the two women had indicated. Players passed back and forth from time to time. They were all veteran players, after all, and everyone soon realized that this Instance wasn't sealed off. Almost all of them had come out to look for clues.
The Kang Family Distillery stood at the corner at the far end of the street. It occupied an enormous area, with high walls, deep courtyards, and upturned eaves, and seemed even larger than the old Kang Residence. Carts and horses filled the narrow lane outside, while a steady stream of people passed through the half-open carved gates.
