[R18] There’s too much meat, I don’t want it anymore – “Too much meat, I don’t want any more” Chapter 38 [English]

0038 Upset (2)

“This must be the handwriting of the Sixth Prince! I didn’t expect to be able to see it here.”

The second aunt who followed the housekeeper to the hall saw the elegant living room. She didn’t like it at first. After all, she came from a small family in the city and knew nothing about poetry. For her, only money was the most important thing, so she still liked those splendid palaces.But she couldn’t act too vulgar, so she had to hold the calligraphy and painting excitedly and pretend to understand. In fact, she was thinking about how much this ugly calligraphy and painting could be worth.

“Madam, these are the calligraphy and paintings collected by the master.” The housekeeper looked at the greedy second concubine and was not happy from the bottom of his heart. However, seeing that she was the wife of the prime minister, he still had to treat her with respect.

In fact, he doesn’t understand why there is such a big gap between living in the Prime Minister’s Mansion.Although he has not been able to see the whole picture of Hua Xuan until now, because Hua Xuan usually moves around the house with half of her face covered with a handkerchief, he thinks that Hua Xuan is a very good hostess and is not as incompetent and ugly as the outside world reports.

Just because she came to the palace and put everything in order in just a few days. After changing her previous laziness, the housekeeper admired this woman from the bottom of his heart. Now the rumors outside are spreading about how the people in the Prime Minister’s Palace treated Hua Xuan in the past. In his heart, he was repelled by the people in the Prime Minister’s Palace. Now that he saw his second aunt being so rude, he despised the people in the Prime Minister’s Palace even more.

“Yes…really?” Hearing what the housekeeper said about her, the second aunt’s old face turned red. However, she had been dominating the Prime Minister’s Mansion for so many years. After all, she still had some tricks. She knew very well that losing to others did not lead to losing.So after the housekeeper exposed her lie, she put down the font more confidently and said with a haughty look: “Of course I know, do you need a slave like you to talk too much?”

“Second concubine, the housekeeper is just kindly reminding you. Doesn’t your appearance make it clear that you don’t know how to pretend to understand?” Hua Xuan slowly came out from the curtain in the backyard. Even if she put on her ugly mask, it didn’t mean that she still pretended to be cowardly. After all, she had left the Prime Minister’s Palace now. Even though Li Yiwen was not favored, she was always the royal wife, and she no longer needed to pretend.

Hua Xuan’s words made the girls standing aside laugh. When the second concubine saw Hua Xuan being so disrespectful, her original attitude of being respectful to Hua Xuan was forgotten. Her impression of Hua Xuan still remained on the surface of cowardice and incompetence. Even though she became the Sixth Princess, she was also the wife of the Prime Minister’s Palace, so why should she bow down to her.

“Second girl, what do you mean by this? You can’t control your servants, so you rely on me instead? You are indeed a child without mother’s guidance. Even if you fly on a branch, you will still be a sparrow!”

The second aunt’s careless words aroused dissatisfaction among the people in the palace. The one who reacted most violently was Fang Fei. If Hua Xuan hadn’t pulled her, she would have slapped the second aunt with her hand.

On the other hand, Hua Xuan still looked calm. After all, she had heard so much over the years, so this time was no different. However, this time she would fight back on the spot, letting her second aunt be too arrogant for a while, and then give her enough time to cry.

“Then I wonder what the second aunt does to come to me for this little sparrow?” Hua Xuan calmly picked up the tea on the table and tasted it carefully, without even looking at the second aunt.

The second aunt regretted it as soon as she said it, but she couldn’t admit her mistake. Seeing Hua Xuan’s unconcerned look, her panic calmed down a lot. She was indeed a sparrow. Even if she put on a gorgeous coat, she couldn’t turn into a phoenix.

However, the second aunt did not dare to be too arrogant. After all, this time she came to Hua Xuan to ask for something from her, so she sat down politely and said, “It’s okay. I wanted to find the Sixth Prince this time, but I see that the Sixth Prince is not here, so I just wanted to find you to catch up on old times.”

“Since I still have something to do, you should go back first!” Seeing that her second aunt was so naive, Hua Xuan softened her heart and prepared to leave.

But Hua Xuan’s soft-heartedness was seen as kindness to others. To the second aunt, she understood it as Hua Xuan’s provocation against her, so she immediately stopped in front of Hua Xuan, her true nature was exposed and she cursed: “Okay, second girl, you are arrogant now that you are married, right? Don’t forget who raised you so big. Without us, how could you be in this position?”
