"Mom, did you know all this?"
"They wanted to keep it a secret, but the town is too close, and there have been rumors. One time, your uncle passed by and saw it with his own eyes. He told me about it, and that's when I believed it."
"Do Grandpa and Grandma know too?"
Lady Zhang didn't respond this time.
"Dad used to be a shopkeeper outside for many years, so of course, he'd be meticulous with the accounts. It seems he must know."
"Your eldest uncle is a scholar, and your aunt, as well as your sister-in-law, are all precious people—they deserve to enjoy the finer things," Lady Zhang said.
"So we're just born to be lowly?" Lian Manman was annoyed.
Lady Zhang said this based on the deep-rooted idea that scholars are precious, but also as a part of her helpless self-comfort. Seeing Lian Manman's eyebrows raised and her face flushed with anger, she immediately regretted it.
