The master's wife glared at him, clearly annoyed.
"How could you have been wronged by marrying me back then?"
"Back then, I had no idea how many people were pursuing me. The fact that I even took a liking to you is a testament to the incredible good fortune your family has accumulated over eight hundred generations."
Even as his master grimaced in pain, he didn't forget to argue back:
"Then the ancestral graves of those eight hundred generations, emitting green smoke, must be buried in the chimneys, right?"

"Hey, you need to be taught a lesson!"
"Tonight, let's see how I deal with you!"

"The departure time is two weeks from now, so make sure you are well prepared during this time."
The master's expression also turned serious, and he said in a deep voice:
"Wow, this is a huge scale? It seems like this is quite serious."
"Since it's a top-secret national mission, you probably don't know the specific details of the mission either."
The master's wife nodded: "Yes, no information has been released about the specific details of this mission. It seems to be a major event that will cause national panic."
