Xia Zhilu, who already regarded Xia Luotong as her enemy and had usurped her position as Prince An and Princess An, immediately felt an unknown anger rise when she saw Xia Luotong's attitude. This person had not been there since he appeared. The bastard who caught his eye dared to be so arrogant in the Xia Mansion. He really needed a lesson!
"Are you not full? I saw you had eaten a lot at the banquet just now. Now you are still eating hard. Is it possible that no one in the palace gave you anything to eat?" Xia Zhilu suddenly said, although her face was full of food Laughing, but the sarcasm in his tone was unmistakable.
"Are you talking to me? If you don't want to call me sister, then call me princess. After all, it is the most basic courtesy to say hello before talking to others? Are you right, sister?" Luo Tong put down the fruit in his hand, took the handkerchief from Zhu Xuan's hand beside him, wiped his hands elegantly, and looked at Xia Zhilu with a faint smile.
Xia Zhilu's little thoughts could never escape her eyes. Since she rushed to deliver it to her door, she couldn't be blamed.
Don’t you regret it now and covet the position of the princess again? How about you call me princess?
Xia Zhilu didn't expect that Xia Luotong didn't answer her question, but instead talked about the title. After a slight pause, she gritted her teeth and became angry, but she also knew that she really couldn't avoid this question, because Xia Mansion announced it to the public. Xia Luotong is the eldest daughter of her original wife, and she is the second daughter of her stepmother. No matter what, she must call Xia Luotong sister.
The position of Princess An should have been hers! So if you want to call this bastard a princess, you are just dreaming!
So Xia Zhilu could only grit her teeth reluctantly and said, "I didn't expect that my sister, who has lived in the country since she was a child, would pay so much attention to etiquette. It's really eye-opening for my sister."
"It's good if my sister has this awareness. Reading more books on weekdays will naturally improve her horizons."
…
Xia Zhilu felt a rush of energy and blood rush to her forehead. She almost lost control of herself and almost tore the handkerchief in her hand!
Is this woman educating herself? How dare she educate herself? ! She was ridiculed and ignorant by someone who looked down upon her at all? !
Xia Luotong's unexpected counterattack caught everyone who was eavesdropping off guard. They were stunned for a moment before they came to their senses. Many people almost laughed out loud. They endured it again and again before finally holding it back. If this was If you couldn't hold back your laughter, it would really offend Mrs. Xia's wife...
No one expected Xia Luotong to backhand such a move. He was obviously being mocked for his low birth status, but he directly ignored Xia Zhilu's attack and mocked the latter for his lack of knowledge...
It's really...unexpected!
But Xia Luotong's words came after Xia Zhilu. What could Xia Zhilu do? In order to maintain her so-called noble attitude, she endured it again and again before she could hold back the curse.
We can't let this woman lead us around!
Xia Zhilu gritted her teeth and brought the topic back up: "Sister hasn't answered what sister just said. Don't you have enough to eat in the palace? Why don't you look at your sister today and keep eating?"
"Look at what my sister said, our Xia Mansion didn't starve me to death. Where is Prince An's Mansion? Can it still starve me?" Xia Luotong chuckled, and suddenly said, "As for why I keep eating ? Maybe he suffered a lot from hunger in another courtyard since he was a child, so he developed the greedy habit he has now!"
As soon as Xia Luotong said these words, many ladies and ladies immediately turned their attention to Mrs. Li.
Feeling the focus of everyone's attention, Li's face immediately froze, and even Xia Zhilu, who asked the question, had a dark face, what a damn bastard! No matter what question she asked, she would always get back to her, saying openly or covertly that Mr. Li was treating her harshly!
In fact, no big family is without secrets, not to mention the wives and concubine ladies present here. Even if they have never done it themselves, they have seen and heard a lot, so the step-brother Li's abuse of his first wife is out of this. The eldest daughter was nothing strange, and few of them even doubted the authenticity of what Xia Luotong said.
As for the step-sisters... they can't stand the idea of a child from the first wife. It's normal and common, and they all understand...
Sensing the knowing glances of many ladies and ladies, Mrs. Li felt a lump in her throat. Although she had indeed done it, doing it in private and being exposed in public were two different things!
Although Xia Zhilu didn't know these things, it didn't stop her from being angry with Xia Luotong. She didn't care what kind of treatment Xia Luotong had suffered before. In her opinion, the so-called eldest sister was just a lowly woman without a mother. , so what if I torture her and starve her to death?
She doesn't care at all, now she only cares about the affairs of Prince An's Mansion!
"Isn't that true? How come I heard that my sister was not only deprived of food in the palace, but was also kicked out by the prince to live in a shabby house in a side courtyard? Isn't it because my sister is afraid of making people laugh, so she makes a fool of herself in front of everyone?" Xia Zhilu Seeing Xia Luotong's arrogant and complacent look, stepping on their heads, he immediately taunted them.
She heard these things from her mother. Although she didn’t know where her mother knew it, her mother was sure that what she said at that time was true!
She couldn't help but be excited when she thought that the fake man's life in Prince An's Mansion was not as good as it seemed, and that the tenderness shown by the handsome Prince An towards Xia Luotong might just be an act!
Think about it, this fake is just a humble person born of a country woman. How could Prince An, with his noble status, like this fake? Of course, only a noble girl like herself who comes from a well-known family can be worthy of Prince An!
Xia Luotong was not surprised at all that his previous situation in Prince An's Mansion would spread. After all, if so many people like Liu Zimo and others could find out, naturally there would be other people who could find out. Although not everything, I think it would be possible. Those aristocratic families with some strength must all know it.
But it's one thing for them to know. It's another thing for them to admit it.
"Sister, where did you hear this? As a girl who has not yet left the court, is it possible that you know more about your brother-in-law's family than your sister?" Xia Luotong sneered, his tone was still so indifferent, but the meaning behind his words But it's a bit heavier.
This has risen to the level of a good friend's reputation. A younger sister knows too much about her elder sister's husband's family... This is not something to be proud of!
Although the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty were open, they were not open to this extent.
Xia Zhilu turned red with anger when she heard this. How could she not understand the meaning of Xia Luotong's words? What a shame that was supposed to be her husband's family!
