Yuan Mengge carried her hoe and headed up the hill behind the village, knowing where her great-grandfather's grave was.

Ironically, the graves of the Yuan family members are all located together in a beautiful spot with mountains and water.

The women who married into the Yuan family were buried haphazardly in other places, their graves scattered and disorganized.

When she was a child, every time she went with her family to sweep the tombs of her great-grandmothers, she was always running around, going to one place in the morning and another in the afternoon.

The burial site of Yuan Mengge's great-grandfather, who is also Yuan Xiangyong's father, as well as Yuan Xiangyong's grandfather's generation, Yuan Xiangyong's eldest and second uncles, and several other elders of the Yuan family are buried here.

Moreover, Yuan Xiangyong will eventually be buried here.

When Yuan Mengge arrived carrying her hoe, it was already dark.

She is an atheist and doesn't believe in these things.

The tomb sweeping season hasn't started yet this year, so the hillside of the cemetery is quite overgrown with weeds.

But there was a small path that led up. Although the path was also quite overgrown, at least there was a foothold. Yuan Mengge followed the path and went up.

When she reached the first grave, she glanced at it, bowed, and continued walking.

As she walked, she asked the system, "System, do you think ghosts exist in this world?"

System: [Metaphysics is a mysterious energy substance that cannot be explored.]

Yuan Mengge stopped in her tracks, her expression blank for a moment, and said, "What? No way? System...you mean...you're telling me that ghosts really exist in this world!"

Energy matter? Unexplorable?

She has always believed that there are no ghosts in this world.

The system went silent.

Yuan Mengge suddenly panicked: "System, say something! Wait... I've already traveled back in time... Could it really be a ghost???"

She's here to dig up graves! If there really are ghosts, will she dig my great-grandfather out of his grave?

System: [Currently, no energy bodies are detected within a radius of 100 meters, so... dig with confidence.]

Yuan Mengge asked with some surprise, "...Can you still detect the presence of ghosts?"

System: [Anything with energy can be detected.]

Yuan Mengge: "..."

"So, are you going to dig or not?" the system suddenly asked.

Yuan Mengge immediately picked up a hoe and continued walking forward, saying as she went, "Dig! I don't care if I offend my ancestors, I have to divide this family property!"

After walking a few steps, she passed another grave, and Yuan Mengge would bow to the grave mound each time.

Yuan Mengge stopped in front of one of the graves.

She thought for a moment, then knelt down in front of the tombstone, kowtowed, and said, "Grandpa, I'm sorry, I can't negotiate with him otherwise. I'll just dig a little bit, and I'll fill it back in for you later. Once I get my household registration book, I'll come and offer incense for you for a month."

For someone as extremely chauvinistic as Yuan Xiangyong, anything related to family is his Achilles' heel.

Digging up his ancestral graves would drive him to the brink of death.

Compared to his ungrateful daughter, the ancestral graves held more weight in his heart.

He probably thought that what I said during the day was just a lie, and that I wouldn't dare to come.

Then she'd show him whether she dared or not.

After she finished bowing to her great-grandfather, she got up, picked up a hoe, and started digging.

At this time, Yuan Xiangyong's whole family had arrived at the roadside at the foot of the mountain and were heading towards the cemetery along the path.

When they caught up, they saw that Yuan Mengge had already dug up her grandfather's grave with a hoe.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Xiangyong was instantly enraged and roared at her, "Yuan Pingping! You bastard! Put down that hoe!!!"

Seeing that they had arrived, Yuan Mengge placed the hoe beside her and supported it with her hand.

She looked at Yuan Xiangyong and said, "Then bring me the household registration book and I'll stop. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good to let Grandpa's coffin be exposed to the wind so late at night."

As she spoke, she tapped the ground with the hoe again, raising her chin as she looked at them.

Yuan Xiangyong's face turned bright red, veins throbbing on his forehead, and he pointed a finger at her, uttering, "You, you, you..."

When Yuan Xiangxiang and the others who ran up behind saw that Yuan Mengge had actually disturbed the soil on her grandfather's grave, their eyes widened in disbelief.

"Yuan Pingping! Are you crazy! Do you want to die?" Yuan Xiangxiang pointed at her and cursed.

Yuan Mengge calmly retorted, "I don't want to die. I just want to get my household registration removed from this family. As long as my household registration isn't separated, you won't have a day of peace! I'll dig up all the coffins of these grandfathers, uncles, and great-uncles. You won't believe me, just try it."

Yuan Dasheng, who had come over to watch the commotion, said, "Aren't you afraid Grandpa will come looking for you tonight?"

Yuan Mengge said, "If he comes looking for me, that's fine. I'll tell him how his son raises his daughter. If his son has raised me well, I won't be digging up his father's grave."

"Did I teach you to dig up your grandfather's grave? Huh! You shameless dog! Did I raise you to be like this? If I had known you would grow up to be such an unfilial thing, I would have strangled you and thrown you into the river when you were born!" Yuan Xiangyong shouted angrily.

Seeing that he still had the energy to curse her, Yuan Mengge immediately picked up the hoe and swung it, about to strike her great-grandfather's grave mound again.

"Stop—" Yuan Xiangyong's expression changed drastically when he saw her swing the hoe, and he shouted at her immediately.

"Aping! Put down the hoe! Let's talk this out, okay?" Yuan Shasha couldn't help but speak up and persuade her.

Upon hearing her words, Yuan Xiangyong suddenly realized what she meant and quickly said to Yuan Mengge, "Put down the hoe! Here you go! The household registration book! Stop it!"

Yuan Mengge held up the hoe and looked at him: "You can't go back on your word!"

Yuan Xiangyong turned to the side, covering his face with one hand and pointing at her with the other, saying, "Put it down first! I keep my word!"

Yuan Mengge put down the hoe and said, "Fine, if you don't keep your word, I'll come back again."

Then she used a hoe to push the soil she had just dug back in, and then tapped it twice to compact it.

Then she walked to her great-grandfather's tombstone and bowed again, saying, "I'm sorry to bother you, great-grandfather."

When she finally mentioned the words "great-grandfather," she lowered her voice.

When Yuan Xiangxiang saw her put down the hoe, she rushed over but stopped halfway and bowed to her grandfather's tombstone before rushing towards Yuan Xiangxiang, raising her hand to hit her.

Yuan Mengge raised her hand to block the hand that was being struck at her, then grabbed Yuan Xiangxiang's hand with her own, twisted it behind her back, and finally pushed her forward.

"Ouch~" Yuan Xiangxiang was pushed out before she could even react to her series of movements.
