“Yeah.” Tong Sanlang nodded, lighting the fire and stuffing firewood into the stove, “It’s a tough life. In my great-grandmother’s words, those silvers taken from the people should be used for the people.”

“Although my great-grandfather explained that these were the resources for future rebellion, my great-grandmother said there was plenty anyway, and when the silver ran out, there would still be gold. So, my grandfather handed out the silver for disaster relief.”

“Wait a second.” Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but interrupt him, “Are you saying, the treasure buried beneath my house, actually belongs to your family?”

“The brave man who stormed into the Imperial Palace of the previous dynasty, looted the National Treasury but was beaten out, was your great-grandfather?”

“Yes, I’m sorry, I didn’t explain clearly last time.” Tong Sanlang showed his apology.

By this point, there was no sense in hiding it from Qiao Xiaomai.

He had said what he needed to say.

Qiao Xiaomai gave a long, understanding ‘Oh’, the realization dawning on her face, “It’s okay, you did the right thing.”

“You’re not blaming me?”

“What’s there to blame.” Xiaomai shook her head, quickly questioning again, “Your great-grandmother was a real heroine!”

Handing out silver for disaster relief, what kindness and courage!

Upon hearing this, Tong Sanlang was silent for a moment before stuffing more firewood into the stove, standing up to start making egg pancakes.

Seeing this, Qiao Xiaomai walked over to help him with the fire.

She sat down by the stove, and then Tong Sanlang continued, “Actually, strictly speaking, she wasn’t my great-grandmother.”

“My great-grandfather was originally married and had a concubine, but after meeting her, he sent away his wife, concubine, legitimate children, and illegitimate children. The original wife of my great-grandfather, my true great-grandmother, was also sent away. My grandfather and Sixth-grandfather, being legitimate sons, were also sent away.”

“Later my great-grandfather revolted, and she followed him in his battles everywhere. When the army was defeated and surrounded, my great-grandfather had someone escort her away.”

“She arrived here first and then sent someone to bring my grandfather and Sixth-grandfather over. By the time they arrived, the treasure had already been buried and the secret tunnel in the mountain had been completed.”

“She passed on my great-grandfather’s last words to my grandfather and Sixth-grandfather, and then devoted herself to nurturing Sixth-grandfather, ensuring his education, teaching him how to take the Imperial Examination and how to be an official.”

“Later, she died, not living long, only in her twenties.”

Qiao Xiaomai”…”

This story, it’s a bit complicated.

“So, I really don’t know how the treasure was buried, nor how the three underground layers were built, I’m sorry.” Tong Sanlang’s hands didn’t stop working as he showed an apologetic expression.

He really wanted to clarify Qiao Xiaomai’s doubts, but he truly didn’t know either.

“Alt…there’s no need to apologize.” Xiaomai shook her head, her face bearing two words: astonished.

She was so shocked that her mind was somewhat flooded.

This is a lot of information; she needed to carefully organize it.

After thinking for a while, she asked, “So, your…the Tong family is planning a rebellion?”

Let’s put aside this mistress who ascended for now, she asked the key question first.

“The Yang family governs this land well, their rule is strong, so my grandfather is hesitant. However, my Sixth-grandfather is determined to cause a rebellion.”

“So how do you plan to do it? Who is your Sixth-grandfather, what preparations has he made? This isn’t a game!” Xiaomai quickly asked again.

“He…” Tong Sanlang’s words trailed off, then he continued, “Your dad and Dami are back, you better get back to bed.”

“Really!” Qiao Xiaomai slapped her thigh in disappointment, quickly standing up and running towards her room.

Being interrupted at this time, it felt like a cat scratching around in her heart!
