Hmph.
Exchanging secrets, forsooth.
Like hell she would.
She was not interested in Tong Sanlang's secrets at all.
All she wanted was to be a serene and wealthy landlord.

It was related to her peaceful life; she couldn't help but be nosy.
Then there was the relationship between the county official, Dai, and Tong Tiehu. With Dai's abrupt manner of dispensing justice, as one of his subjects, she had some concerns.

Nope.
If Tong Sanlang wasn't straightforward, why should she spill the truth?
Tong Sanlang was unaware of Qiao Xiaomai's thoughts. Listening to her response, he was torn between amusement and helplessness.
