Chapter 64: Chapter 64 This Is Fair
This time, Xia Chuyi had no intention of playing along with the Xia Family’s script. She shook her head innocently and said to Xia Mei, “I don’t understand what you mean, Sister Mei.”
Upon hearing Xia Chuyi’s words, Xia Mei’s eyebrows shot up, and with a smack, she threw the melon seeds in her hand onto the ground. “Xia Chuyi, don’t you pretend with me here!”
“That Xia Lan is such a flirt. After she went to the Provincial City with you for just a few days, how could you possibly not have noticed something going on between her and He Qing? Do you really think I’m stupid?”
Xia Mei, when she spoke, was truly unrestrained, and yet she still had an overinflated opinion of herself, thinking she was quite formidable.
“You clearly know about Xia Lan and He Qing’s affair… Hmph, it’s because Xia Lan stole He Qing from you, and you’re not satisfied, so you pretend you don’t know, right?” Xia Mei scoffed angrily, “You don’t tell, wanting Xia Lan to be embarrassed, and also by the way to laugh at me, right?”
Xia Mei stood up, pointed at her nose, and said, “I’m telling you, I’m not Xia Lan, I’m not someone you can bully easily!”
Xia Chuyi tilted her head, her eyes curving into crescent moons, and said, “I really don’t understand what you’re talking about, Sister Mei. I just want to know, what exactly is your purpose in looking for me?”
Don’t beat around the bush with your words.
Xia Mei’s intelligence, if she could think of these, someone must be coaching her from behind.
To say Xia Mei was foolish, her IQ wasn’t high, but to say she was clever, if there was no profit in it, she wouldn’t get involved.
So her coming here today must have a motive.
When Xia Chuyi directly pointed out that Xia Mei had an ulterior motive, Xia Mei didn’t show any embarrassment; instead, she raised her head high.
“That’s right, I am indeed looking for you because I have something,” Xia Mei said as she sat down again.
“Xia Chuyi, the marriage with He Qing, it’s now Xia Lan’s, considered given up by you.”
“Since it was you who let it go, it’s as if the second branch gave something to the third branch.”
“So, to be fair, shouldn’t your second branch give something to our main branch?” Xia Mei spoke with great righteousness.
Xia Chuyi was on the verge of laughing from anger.
“Give something to your main branch?” she repeated Xia Mei’s words.
“Yes!” Xia Mei had the look of someone who respected her and came to ask her for a favor.
“I heard that your aunt is inquiring everywhere, planning to arrange a job for you, I heard it’s to teach at the village primary school.”
“Xia Chuyi, you’ve given up the marriage to Xia Lan, so you should give this teaching job to me, that would be fair.”
She gave up the marriage to Xia Lan, so she should give up the job to Xia Mei to be fair?
Ha, what excellent calculating!
To teach at the village primary school, she even knew the specifics of the job… pray tell, how does Xia Mei, who hasn’t left the house in two or three days, know of these outside village news? Exactly which elder came up with this rotten idea for her?
Grandma Xia, or Aunt Xia?
Do they really think she’s easy to bully?
“You’re asking me… to give the job to you?” Xia Chuyi asked with an almost amused expression.
