Chapter 268: Burning Up
Translator: 549690339
“I mean, Master Lang left too early!” It’s too late at night!”
[Tangli: Can you explain to me?]
She was just a maid. There was really no need for her to be so angry out of humiliation and act like she was going to fight if she didn’t believe her. She believed it! Madam said that the sun was square and the moon was made of paper. She believed it!
“This servant feels that Furen’s idea is very good. It would be best to let Master Lang exercise his body and supplement it with food.”
The heat on Xiao Baoxin’s face had not subsided, and he only nodded perfunctorily.
She was going to practice martial arts and be quiet.
After washing up, Xiao Baoxin began his daily homework. After that, she washed up again and ate some porridge. Then, she changed into a long dress and went to Yi An Hall to pay her respects to Mother Xie.
When she arrived, Xie Chan and Xie Juan from the third branch were already surrounding Mother Xie and making witty remarks.
Seeing that she had come, he quickly got up and greeted her after she had greeted Mother Xie.
Xiao Baoxin was a bossy and domineering person. He even dared to beat up the granddaughter of the Xie family. Even if they had the intention, they were not willing to be scolded in front of Mother Xie.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“That’s right. Everyone will be happy to see that sister-in-law is harmonious.’Mother Xie’s eyes and ears knew that Xiao Baoxin had put Xie Shan in a difficult position and had even beaten up the maid of the third household in public. However, she pretended not to know anything and looked kind.
Xie Chan and Xie Juan looked at each other. They were really biased to the point of being armpits.
Love the house, love the crow. Not only did she dote on her grandson, but even her granddaughter-in-law was about to dote on her armpits.
Their second branch was born of a concubine, so they didn’t dare to make a scene in front of Mother Xie. Even Xie Shan had been dealt with by Xiao Baoxin. They felt that they didn’t have the face to ask Mother Xie to back them up, so they silently endured it.
“Didn’t Grandmother say yesterday that she wanted to eat abalone porridge this morning? I just finished my martial arts training and drank two mouthfuls of porridge to fill my stomach. I was waiting for Grandmother to eat something delicious.”Xiao Baoxin laughed.
“Grandmother would lie to you just to stutter?”
Mother Xie smiled.” In the future, if you want to eat anything, just tell Grandmother. 1’11 definitely cook for you.””
“I still want to eat the Hu cakes made by Grandmother’s kitchen.”Xiao Baoxin said,” I’ve asked the master in Rong ‘an Hall’s kitchen to try making it, but it’s not as good as Grandmother’s. Every time 1 come to Grandmother’s place, I can’t help but think of the Hu Pancake.””
“You gluttonous child, it’s a good thing that you can eat.”
Especially since she could eat a lot, wasn’t fat, and was so beautiful.
Mother Xie was an old lady, and she envied Xiao Baoxin’s exquisite figure. These young ladies, including her when she was young, which one of them dared to eat as much as they could? Did they not want to get married?
However, Xiao Baoxin had eaten a tall man. There was a lot of meat in the places where there should be meat, but there was not a single bit of meat in the places that should not be.
“Are you still practicing kung fu? Wake up early every day, don’t tire yourself out.”
She still had the energy to beat people up. She probably wasn’t tired yet. Xie Chan felt awkward. Ever since Xiao Baoxin came in, her grandmother had been pulling Xiao Baoxin to talk. She actually treated it as if there was no one else in the room.
“The strange priest saw that although sister-in-law can eat, she doesn’t get fat no matter how much she eats. 1 think it’s because of her martial arts.”
Just as he was thinking, Xie Juan chimed in.
“Yes, I’m hungry if I don’t eat so much.”Xiao Baoxin smiled. Xie Juan smiled at her, and she smiled back. Xie Chan treated her as if she didn’t exist, so she treated her as if she didn’t exist. She was very clear about gratitude and resentment.
“Practicing martial arts is mainly to strengthen the body. Ah Lang’s body was weak and his work was heavy. 1 discussed with him to let him walk with me for an hour every day. When he got used to it, I would teach him some punches and kicks. 1 didn’t expect him to be very good at martial arts, but at least his body would be stronger.”
Xie Chan ridiculed,”His body is weak, and he has a lot of work to do. Why is he still asking him to practice martial arts? Is he not tired of the work?”
Although Mother Xie also felt sorry for her grandson, it was true that his body was too weak. If Xiao Baoxin could really affect him, it might not be a bad thing to train his body to be stronger.
As for the heartache, forget it. Let the young couple do whatever they want.
Xie Xian had been proud and aloof since he was young and had a good mind, so he was able to listen to Xiao Baoxin.
Not long after, Madam Yuan arrived.
After waiting for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the third branch still did not come to pay their respects. Madam Wang, Xie Shan, and Xie Yan did not come either.
Mother Xie’s face was not very happy. She thought that Xiao Baoxin had swept the face of the Third household yesterday, and today the Wangs were stepping on their noses and competing with her.
“Go to the third branch to see if Madam Wang is sick.”After Mother Xie finished instructing Zhilan, she called for the maids to serve the dishes. “Let’s eat our food first.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was to embarrass the Wang Consortium.
After all, Madam Wang was the master of the palace. Zhilan did not dare to order the little maid to invite her and went there herself. In the end, when she arrived at the third room, she found out that Madam Wang was not in the residence at all. The maid in the room stuttered and could not even understand. The Second Lady’s face was pale. She rushed out with the guards after her mother went to find Third Master Xie’s outer room.
“I panicked too. I don’t know if 1 should tell Grandmother. But if I don’t say it, I’m afraid that mother will do something stupid and hurt herself.”
Zhilan didn’t have the time to comfort Second Lady and quickly brought Second Lady and Ninth Lady back to Yi An Hall.
After a round trip, Mother Xie had yet to finish her meal, but the matter was urgent. Zhilan was afraid that if things got out of hand, she, as a maid, would not be able to handle it. However, there were still juniors in the house, so it was inconvenient to talk about it in front of them. Thus, Second Lady and Ninth Lady were arranged to the west wing, where the Old Furen loved to read.
Zhilan entered the room to reply. When Xiao Baoxin saw her lead Mother Xie to the outer room, his heart thumped. He vaguely felt that it was the matter of Third Master Xie keeping a mistress and giving birth to a child that Xie Xian had mentioned last night.
Xie Xian also said that paper couldn’t wrap fire. As expected, this fire started burning early in the morning.
Everyone also knew that things were not looking good. However, Mother Xie was not around, so it was not good to leave just like that. Xie Chan and Xie Juan were juniors, so they could only sit there and endure.
Lady Yuan, on the other hand, chewed slowly and ate until the end before asking the maids to remove the food.
At this moment, a maid came over to pass on the message. Grandmother had instructed that other than Lady Yuan who had something important to discuss with her, the rest of the juniors were to go and do their own things.
Xie Chan and Xie Juan felt as if they had been pardoned. They did not want to get involved in the matter of the third branch at all.
After bidding farewell to Lady Yuan, the two sisters returned to their own courtyard.
“Do you know what happened in the third household?”Madam Yuan asked softly.
Xiao Baoxin nodded and glanced at the maids in the outer room. There were also footsteps. It was obvious that there were many people coming in and out of the room.
Madam Yuan did not ask further. Her mother-in-law had asked her to stay because she did not want to hide anything from her. She had something to discuss with her and would know in a while. On the other hand, Xiao Baoxin finding out about this made her quite happy, as if the young couple had communicated.
He only instructed her,”You should go back and rest well..””
