Madam Xie, agitated, rushed forward and grabbed Xuexue's hand, urgently asking, "Xuexue, is what Big Bull said true? Did you really go to the Yamen and receive ten thousand taels of silver?"
Madam Xie knew nothing about how much reward money Xuexue received from the County Yamen yesterday, because they returned so late last night, and she didn't want to disturb their rest, so she never had the chance to ask. Suddenly, hearing Big Bull mention that they had actually received a silver note for ten thousand taels, she was startled.
My goodness, so much silver, she never even laid eyes on such an amount in her entire life, let alone dared to dream of it.
Xuexue smiled and said, "Right, we got back too late last night, and I didn't have the chance to tell you."
Madam Xie felt like she was in a dream, incredulously asking, "Really?"
Xuexue nodded, "Mm! Of course, it's true."
