A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace-Chapter 919

This was personally witnessed by Xia Caiying.

On that day in the palace.

Her sister had only embroidered half of a lotus flower, and her fingers were already full of holes.

Moreover, her way of handling the needle and thread was very clumsy.

Clearly, she hadn’t learned much about embroidery!

Yet Lady Yao brazenly lied, claiming that she taught her sister embroidery!

Utterly ridiculous!

Old Master Xia was so furious that his beard wouldn’t stop quivering.

"Lady Yao! You are simply... absurd! Absurd!"

He slapped across, and Lady Yao screamed miserably, her mouth full of blood as she fell to the side.

"You vile woman, heart as cold as snakes and scorpions, yet I’ve been deceived by you for so long!"

"No wonder my children are always sickly!"

"Turns out you’ve been the one causing trouble!"

Xia Caiying looked on with satisfaction at Lady Yao’s disgrace.

On the surface, she made a symbolic gesture to persuade.

"Father, please calm down, perhaps... Madam has her reasons?!"

Outwardly mitigating, but in reality, fueling the flames.

Sure enough, Old Master Xia exploded.

"You have reasons?! What reasons could you possibly have?!"

He was so angry he wished he could scold with his finger pointed at Lady Yao’s nose.

Lady Yao was equally enraged.

She covered her swollen face with one hand, got up from the ground, and lunged into Old Master Xia’s arms as if gambling.

All the while arguing and crying.

"Just kill me! You old bastard!"

"I married into your home and bore your children, and now you’re hitting me in front of a mere concubine’s daughter!"

"Just kill me, anyway, I’m living a life worse than death!"

As the legitimate wife, she was thoroughly neglected, moved out of the main house, and into the most rundown courtyard.

She had nowhere to place her dignity!

"This household has never been under my control for a long time!"

"I don’t want to live anymore either!"

Old Master Xia was pushed back continuously.

His plump belly indented as if caved in, and although it was just fat, it still hurt!

He angrily shoved Lady Yao away with all his strength.

"Mad, completely mad!"

Lady Yao had long been crying messily, her clothes and hair in disarray, hairpins and ornaments scattered on the ground.

Being pushed fiercely, she fell back to the ground, crying out loudly.

Old Master Xia dusted off his sleeves, pointed coldly at her.

"Someone, lock her up for me! Without my orders, no one is allowed to see her!"

A man must assert his authority as the master of the house.

When a woman dares to hit a man, what kind of order is that!

Immediately, house servants came up.

"Yes!"

Then they forcibly took Lady Yao away!

Lady Yao cried hysterically.

"Xia Yu, you bastard! I’ll fight you to the death!"

The leading house servant sneered sarcastically.

"Madam, you’re overestimating yourself, even daring to defy the master!"

Lady Yao was so outraged she acted like a madwoman, turning her head to glare viciously at him.

In the next moment.

After a miserable scream, that house servant’s face was covered with bloodstains.

The others wanted to laugh but dared not, dared to be angry but dared not speak!

Ultimately, Lady Yao was still taken away and locked up.

Xia Caiying stood up from the ground.

She wiped her tears, and with a face full of guilt, she said.

"Father! It’s all my fault, causing Madam to lose her temper!"

Old Master Xia steadied his chest and gathered his composure.

"Enough!"

"What does this have to do with you?"

"I just feel... sorry for your sister!"

Xia Caiying suddenly wanted to laugh.

She couldn’t pretend the deep father-daughter bond anymore, so she asked nonchalantly.

"Father didn’t know before, that Madam treated sister poorly?!"

Old Master Xia was somewhat taken aback, and after carefully considering, he said.

"I knew!"

"After all, she’s a stepmother, it’s understandable she’d be a bit biased!"

"And she sweet-talked me, I really thought she was just a bit biased, didn’t expect..."

Didn’t expect she really destroyed his eldest legitimate daughter.

That ’chicken scrawl’ writing, if the ancestors saw it, they’d probably be so angry they’d overturn their coffins.

Xia Caiying lowered her head, a cold smile appearing on her lips.

’Didn’t expect? What a good ’didn’t expect’!’

Such an ’unexpected,’ nearly caused the death of her four siblings.

Back then, each of them was haggard and sickly, she truly didn’t believe Father couldn’t see it.

He was just bewitched by the then Lady Yao.

Now...

Seeing Lady Yao already losing power, her brother and sister have achieved great success, the second brother did well in the imperial exams, and she herself is soon to...

Only now did Father finally begin to take them seriously.

If everything in front of her was still the same as back then?!

Haha, the result hardly needs a guess.

Xia Caiying didn’t want to say another word.

She symbolically offered a few words of comfort and then took her leave.

Just as she was about to lift her skirt and go out the door, suddenly something came crashing toward her from the front.

Startled, she stumbled, nearly falling.

"Who is it?!"

"You villain, you slut! Give me back my mother!"

A spoiled brat of about ten years old pointed arrogantly at her nose, cursing her.

Following behind him was a chubby little girl munching on a chicken drumstick.

"It’s you!"

"You villain, slut!"

Between words, bits of chicken sprayed from her mouth.

It sprayed far and wide, even onto Xia Caiying’s skirt!

She looked down at the corner of her skirt, then at the two of them with a face full of shock and disbelief.

"What are you saying?"

The now plump Xia Ruyi chewed a few more times and swallowed the drumstick.

Again pointing at Xia Caiying’s nose.

"Miss says you are a slut?"

"What’s the matter? Do you dare to resist?"

"My mother said, those born of concubines need not be treated as brothers and sisters, just like servants!"

"Servants?"

Xia Caiying remained shocked, but her expression had returned to calm.

Xia Ruyi continued arrogantly.

"What, do you have a problem with me saying so?! Don’t forget, who is the legitimate young lady of this mansion!"

"Don’t think that just because you’re marrying well, you can do whatever you want!"

"My mother said, you just happened to bump into a dead mouse by a blind cat!"

"Or perhaps, that Minister’s Mansion’s young master has some issues, that’s why he took a fancy to you!"

The first few sentences were tolerable.

But the last sentence made Xia Caiying’s face turn green with anger, trembling all over.

"You..."

"Xia Ruyi, you... outrageous!"

Xia Ruyi rolled her eyes.

"Oh dear, my second sister, who are you trying to scare?!"

Beside them, Xia Weifeng chimed in smugly.

"My mother said, in the future, the third sister will enter the palace to serve the Emperor just like the eldest sister!"

"She also said, the third sister is naturally beautiful, sure to be more favored than the eldest sister!"

"By then, being a Noble Consort, even an Empress is within reach!"

The two little fatties, unaware of the world and its enormity.

There they went, one word after another, seemingly without brains or morals.

Xia Caiying almost couldn’t suppress her laughter.

"Empress?"

"Well! Ambitious! Absolutely ambitious!"

If she doesn’t get into the palace it’s fine.

If she does, she’s truly curious to see, how will Xia Caiying survive in the palace.

Just with all that fat?

Hahaha...

After all, it was gained one bite after another.

Being favored might not work, but if it’s about fighting, she might still fend off enemies!

"Then, in advance, congratulations to the third sister!"

Xia Caiying spoke with a sarcastic face, sneering coldly!
