He originally wanted to ask everyone to flee together, but another deputy general refused to do so. He felt that the emperor was incompetent, the generals were disregarding the overall situation, and foreign enemies were eyeing the dynasty covetously. Why should they be loyal to such a lord? In anger, he led the remaining people in rebellion, and later it was these people who founded the Great Xia Dynasty...

Su Wei frowned: "What about my Su family's ancestors?"

Aunt Lan smiled and said, "Don't worry. Your ancestor knew that the deputy general had bad character. Following him would not necessarily be a good thing, regardless of success or failure. So he took his own investigation and ran away, hiding in the mountains!"

Even so, Auntie Lan believes that the Su family's ancestors didn't want to live a hard life of fighting and conquering...

Su Wei felt that her ancestors had lost the chance to be made a marquis or a prime minister...

Otherwise, she would be a well-fed and well-clothed young lady if she came here...

Aunt Lan saw what she was thinking. This girl really thought the same thing as she did back then.

Aunt Lan said, "What our ancestors did was right. After our great Xia ancestor became emperor, he was suspicious of this and that. Later, those who followed him died or were exiled. It was our Su family who lived longer."

Su Wei “…”

That's true.

"Didn't our ancestors bring money for the journey? Why did our family become so poor later?" Su Wei couldn't help but ask.

Aunt Lan looked at her helplessly: "Guess why mom is so good at cooking?"

Su Wei “…”

Aunt Lan said, "Our ancestors' wealth was spent by the generations before us. When it came to your grandfather, he saved some by robbing the rich and giving to the poor, but your father loved to enjoy life... In fact, no one in our family could endure hardship, so we fell into poverty like this."

Su Wei “…”

Look at Auntie Lan's cooking skills. How much delicious fish and meat must she have eaten to develop them...
