"Eat up yourself, I'm not hungry; I'm off to my uncle's," Xia Chu said. She could tell at a glance that the food was scrimped and saved by Mother Xia herself. Having the option to eat in her 'space,' she really didn't want to snatch away this meager ration.
Seeing she was still persistent in going to Uncle Xia's, Mother Xia hesitated and said, "Chuyi, you should eat before you go... After all, you're the Xia family's daughter. It's not good to trouble your uncle too often... Other people will talk, you know..."
Talk? Who dares to gossip?
It would be those from the Xia family.
Heh, they have the nerve to wag their tongues, accusing her and her mother of relying on Uncle Xia, yet they don't have the decency to refuse Uncle Xia's generosity.
After everything that happened in her past life, she had long realized that these people from the Xia family were just a bunch of jesters.
She didn't want to argue with Mother Xia.
