Chapter 980: Chapter 980: Thought a Bunch of Pigs Were Scrambling for Food (Thanks to Succulent Loves Meat for the monthly ticket)

Qingyuo Pavilion.

In the garden, where trees cast cool shades all around, flowers bloomed like a brocade. Between two large trees, there was a swing, on which Xuexue, holding a book, sat reading...

Zi Xia stood quietly to the side.

Time slowly passed by...

In the blink of an eye, two hours had gone by.

Zi Xia glanced at Xuexue, who was still engrossed in her book, hesitated several times to speak, but finally couldn’t help herself and took a step forward, calling out in a low voice, "Miss."

"Um."

Xuexue responded absentmindedly, her eyes still fixed on the book.

"The people from Old Madam Mo’s...?"

"You handle them. Don’t bother me with such trifles." In her previous life, Zi Xia lost her life for Xuexue’s sake, so Xuexue had absolute trust in her.

"This maid understands, it’s just..." Zi Xia’s voice trailed off hesitantly, filled with an indescribable sense of difficulty.

"What is it?"

"They keep clamoring to see Master Mo."

"My foster father?"

"Correct."

"Tell them that my foster father has already left the General’s Mansion."

"This maid has already told them, but they are relentless, insisting that the Miss has plotted against Master Mo. They even say they will go to the government office to lodge a complaint tomorrow!"

"Will they ever stop!" Xuexue put the book down with some irritation.

In her past life, the scene of Old Lady Mo and her family coming to the Capital never happened, so Xuexue did not know what would happen next; inevitably she felt some trepidation and was even more cautious around Auntie Tang, fearing the slightest mistake might lead to a repeat of the tragedies of her past life.

"Miss, you should handle it personally."

Zi Xia was also very troubled by Old Lady Mo and her family. Back in the days when she roamed the Itinerant World, she had seen plenty of people from humbler backgrounds; most of them were honest and kind-hearted by nature. It was the first time she had encountered someone like Old Lady Mo who was so extreme.

"Alright, I must face it eventually." Xuexue stood up helplessly.

In this life, she was reborn for the purpose of revenge, and even if she was extremely averse to certain people, she still had to face them as if nothing was amiss.

People like the Fourth Prince, Situtu Qinger, were her greatest enemies in this life. She was biding her time, waiting until her strength was sufficient to silently make them half-dead, and then let them slowly await their doom.

In her past life, the pain she endured, she would make them all experience it.

The courtyard where Old Lady Mo and her family were staying used to be where the servants lived, but because it was too dilapidated, Auntie Tang had arranged for them to live elsewhere, and the place had gradually fallen into disuse.

When Xuexue arrived with Zi Xia, the Mo family were gathered around the table, eating and drinking heartily, appearing to enjoy themselves immensely.

They were so engrossed that they didn’t even notice Xuexue entering, continuing to gobble down large chunks of meat, making smacking noises.

Just by listening to the sounds, if one didn’t see the scene for themselves, they might think it was a group of pigs fighting over food!

Xuexue turned her head and glanced at Zi Xia with a questioning look in her eyes.

Zi Xia gently shook her head to indicate that she had not arranged any feast for them.

Xuexue turned her gaze away and walked gracefully over, smiling at the Mo family, who were busy eating and drinking, "Grandfather, grandmother, are you enjoying your meal?"

The Mo family all froze, stopping their eating, and turned their heads to look at Xuexue...

Each one of them had their mouths greasy, with their cheeks puffed up...

Clearly, they were all quite stunned by Xuexue’s arrival.

"Is it you?"

Old Lady Mo struggled to swallow the food in her mouth, then raised her arm to haphazardly wipe away the grease at the corner of her mouth.
