Chapter 25

Ever since Fan Yin pretended to have a drunken madness that night, Aunt Rong was assigned to the most desolate room in the house, and even the maids who served her were not allowed to follow her.

The housekeeper's power in the house fell into Xia Keyu's hands.

Xia Keyu can be said to be in the limelight for a while.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Xia Kelian went to the North Courtyard secretly to find her biological mother, Aunt Rong.

"Mother~"

When Xia Kelian saw that her mother lived in such a simple and desolate place, even the windows were leaking, the walls on all sides were also tattered, the ground was potholed, and there was a weak oil lamp on the table, she immediately began to cry.

Aunt Rong was sitting in the house, when she saw Xia Kelian appearing, she was furious and said sharply, "What are you doing here?"

Xia Kelian was taken aback, she didn't even bother to wipe her tears, sobbing, "Mother, I'll come and see you."

"Your Majesty!"

Aunt Rong scolded angrily.

Xia Kelian went in without knowing it, but she didn't dare to disobey her mother, so she knelt obediently on the dusty ground.

Aunt Rong asked in a cold voice: "Do you know where your mistake is?"

Xia Kelian shook her head puzzled, wanting her mother's advice.

Aunt Rong sighed, and then taught a lesson: "How can you come to see me at this important juncture? If someone sees it, you will inevitably be implicated."

Xia Kelian took out her handkerchief, wiped away her tears, and said aggrievedly: "But, I want to see if mother is doing well."

Aunt Rong sneered, her eyes were full of disdain, she hated iron for being weak and pointed out:

"The most urgent task right now is that you should complete the painting that will be dedicated to the imperial concubine."

Seeing that her daughter seemed to understand but half understood, she continued:

"As long as you finish the painting and get the reward from the imperial concubine, you can naturally use this honor to ask your grandmother and father for a chance to let me go out of this north courtyard."

Only then did Xia Kelian suddenly realize, and she swore: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely finish that painting and save you from the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible."

Only then did Aunt Rong nod her head in satisfaction. As expected of her daughter, at least she was able to distinguish priorities.

Xia Kelian glanced around and saw that the mattresses on the bed were all old, the bed boards were a little moldy, and she felt sorry for her mother, so she said sadly:
"Mom, how can people live in this place?"

Aunt Rong looked out of the black window, her eyes seemed to be poisoned, and she said with a gloomy tone: "Don't worry, my mother is not doing well, and I won't let others have a good time."

As she spoke, she motioned for Xia Kelian to lean over, and motioned: "I'll teach you a trick, and you have to follow it."

next day
Fan Chen saw that his aunt was fine, so he went back to report to Fan's family.Fan Yin was left here to assist Xia Keyu.

The Xia family was quiet for a few days, and even Xia Kelian pretended to be sick and hid in the room.

Xia Keyu knew that the imperial concubine's birthday was coming soon.Xia Kelian should be busy drawing in the room.

The empress has not been in the palace for a long time, and the imperial concubine Ning Fei is in charge of the sixth palace, which is equivalent to the queen in the actual sense.Inside and outside the palace, there are countless people who want to curry favor with the imperial concubine.

In her previous life, Xia Kelian presented a rich and noble peony picture.

The peony is the national flower, implying the king in the painting, but Xia Kelian presented such a painting to the imperial concubine, and the meaning in it can be said to be self-evident.

Sure enough, the imperial concubine was very happy when she saw this painting, and she had a good impression of Xia Kelian, and when she was drafting a girl for the third prince, she was chosen.

In addition, Xia Kelian is used to handling men, which attracted the love of the third prince, and she was able to enter the third prince's residence smoothly.Since then, it has risen step by step.

One can imagine how important this painting is.

Thinking of this, Xia Keyu had an idea in his mind.

She secretly signaled Qing Ya to go out and buy something blindly, and also told her to be careful.She would never let Xia Kelian succeed.

On the other side, five-year-old Xia Demao came back from school, and happened to meet his second sister waiting at the side, holding his favorite roast chicken in her hand. When she saw Xia Demao, she pretended to be wronged and cried:
"My good brother, you are back, here is the roast chicken."

Although Xia Demao has a stubborn temper, but he is pure in heart. When he saw the roast chicken, he couldn't walk, so he immediately took the roast chicken and started to eat it.

He has always liked the soft-spoken second sister the most, so he asked curiously:
"Second sister, what's wrong?"

Xia Kelian pretended to be wronged and said: "My good brother, the eldest lady is really powerful now, she locked my aunt in the north courtyard, and said that she will take good care of you in the future."

Xia Demao was eaten by Xia Keyu because of his elbow that day. After he made a fuss, his father imprisoned him in the room and starved all night.

Hearing this, he suddenly became angry, and said angrily: "Bad sister! Don't give me food!"

Seeing this, Xia Kelian added fuel and vinegar:

"My dear brother, you see that you have changed the academy now, and it was all because of the eldest lady. She told grandma and dad that Maoer is not good, and you must let the master beat him well so that his memory will be long."

Xia Demao was a bit ignorant at first, after moving to this new academy, he often failed to complete his homework and was beaten by his teacher.

Now hearing that it was Xia Keyu's idea, he said angrily, "Eldest sister is a bad person!"

A trace of disgust flashed in Xia Kelian's eyes, and she quickly suppressed it, provocatively saying: "Well, Maoer, you do as I tell you."

Xia Demao is only a five-year-old child, how can there be so many fancy intestines, after hearing Xia Kelian's words, he nodded immediately and said: "Second sister, don't worry."

Today, when it was time for dinner, Xia Demao yelled as soon as he arrived at the table: "I want Aunt Rong to feed me!"

Fan Shuyao on the side persuaded: "It's the same if Auntie Qiao takes care of you."

Xia Demao angrily threw the chopsticks on the table, folded his arms on his chest, and said angrily: "I don't want it, I want Aunt Rong, I want Aunt Rong!"

Then there was trouble.

Xia Keyu knew that he must be provoked by others, so he glanced at Xia Demao coldly, and said to others:

"Grandmother, father, mother, looking at Mao'er like this, I should not be hungry. Since he is not hungry, don't feed him, so as not to waste food."

When Xia Demao thought of the taste of starvation, he felt really uncomfortable, so he got up viciously, and made a gesture to reach out to hit Xia Keyu.

This was naturally taught by Xia Kelian, who asked Xia Demao to hit Xia Keyu. Anyway, Xia Demao was only a five-year-old child, so Xia Keyu couldn't fight back.

What they want is to make the Xia family restless.

Seeing this, Fan Yin who was sitting beside Xia Keyu stood up suddenly, grabbed Xia Demao's arm, and stared at him fiercely.

Xia Demao's arms were clenched, looking at Fan Yin's ferocious face, and remembering the scene where Fan Yin took a knife to kill Aunt Rong a few days ago, he burst into tears in fright.

Xia Keyu, who was on the side, was full of contempt. It was too much for Aunt Rong to let a child take action this time.
