Transmigrated Into the Vicious Stepmother in a Historical Novel - Chapter 21

Xu Yuxia laughed, “Even if you’re lying, you should come up with a better excuse. With your abilities, you won’t even be able to boil eggs for a few children, don’t be ridiculous! Do you have any laying hens in your family? Those eggs are from our family.”

After she was done saying that, Xu Yuxia was about to go in, “You stole the eggs from our family, there must be more. I’m going to search for them.”

Xu Yuxia’s shamelessness reached such a degree that Sheng Fei easily blocked her with one arm. If she let her in, who knows, she might start smashing things and take the grain again, so she absolutely wouldn’t let her get close to the kitchen.

Xu Yuxia didn’t know when Sheng Fei’s strength had become so great. She paused for a moment and deliberately shouted, “What’s wrong! Are you feeling guilty?”

Sheng Fei didn’t fall for her trick. “The taunting method is useless on me. You said I took your family’s eggs, then I’ll ask you, how many did you lose and when did you lose them?”

Xu Yuxia’s family didn’t lose any eggs, but she absolutely didn’t believe those eggs were bought by Sheng Fei, so she casually said, “Four were lost just this noon. It must be that you stole them while I was cooking at noon.”

Sheng Fei laughed.

Xu Yuxia frowned and glared at her, “What are you laughing at?”

Sheng Fei contemptuously swept her with a glance, completely disregarding her. The previous times she let her go, making her feel that she was easy to bully. This time she was going to teach Xu Yuxia a good lesson.

“I’m laughing at someone who is stupid but don’t know it.”

“How dare you call me stupid!”

“Calling you stupid, what’s the problem with that! Do I have to pick a day to do it?”

Sheng Fei provoked her. She stood in front of Xu Yuxia, her eyes gradually turning cold. “You keep saying my family stole your eggs, do you have any evidence? Can you just accuse us with empty words?”

Xu Yuxia was not afraid. She noticed that more and more villagers were passing by, and she just wanted to settle this quickly.

“I know very well what the conditions in your family are like. Would you be willing to buy eggs for a few children to eat? It must be that you are shameless enough to steal from my family. Hurry up and return them.”

She brazenly lied through her teeth. Sheng Fei lightly laughed, “Today I earned a little money, and bought a basket of eggs. I think many people saw this. When did they become yours?”

Xu Yuxia was taken aback.

“You actually have money to buy so many eggs?”

Other villagers started to discuss, “I did see it. Don’t know how she got the money, but she bought a basket of eggs.”

“They were all quite large. I also saw her carrying them back.”

“Didn’t expect that even in the Lu family, this Xu Yuxia is so shameless. The second family’s conditions were already not good, yet they are always trying to take advantage of others. How shameless.”

Xu Yuxia was thoroughly embarrassed by what the others were saying. “You guys are talking nonsense.”

Her old face couldn’t be maintained. She glared angrily at the nearby villagers, “What do you know? You’re just spouting nonsense. My eggs were definitely stolen and eaten by them. Who knows, maybe she bought the eggs and came to steal them again.”

Someone sneered, “You yourself want to eat other people’s eggs and yet come up with so many excuses. Do you think we’re blind!”

Xu Yuxia couldn’t argue further. Lu Jixiang was still crying and crying. She closed her eyes, and a few more wrinkles appeared on her wrinkled old face.

Suddenly she bent down and slapped Lu Jixiang’s butt a few times, as if regaining her face by disciplining him. “Eat, eat, eat, that’s all you know, not going home. You shameful thing.”

Lu Jixiang was spanked and cried loudly, running and wailing.

The two came in a clown-like manner, and left with their tails between their legs.

Sheng Fei watched coldly.

Turning back, the five little pairs of eyes were shining brightly at her.

Sheng Fei squatted down and rubbed Lu Da’s little head. “Be good, let’s go back to the room and eat slowly.”

She peeled a boiled egg for Lu Da and asked carefully, “Why did you smash the eggs?”
