Chapter 59: Chapter 59: Watching a Joke?
“Ah, Sister Lan, since you were already with He Qing, why didn’t you say so earlier?” Xia Chuyi shifted her eyes suspiciously, “Sister Lan, if you had spoken earlier, Grandma and the others wouldn’t have had other thoughts!”
“Alas, it was because you didn’t speak up earlier that this led to…” She deliberately glanced at the people present.
Today’s drama, wasn’t it all started because of a marriage issue? If we had known earlier about Xia Lan and He Qing, this play wouldn’t have even started.
Xia Chuyi sighed heavily, and said seriously, “Sister Lan, aren’t you just intentionally enjoying Sister Mei’s embarrassment?”
Her words successfully shifted the blame onto Xia Mei.
Upon hearing this, Xia Mei flew into a rage.
“Xia Lan, you bitch!” Xia Mei lunged forward, grabbed Xia Lan’s clothes, and raised her hand to slap her.
“What are you doing?” Xia Mei’s raised hand was caught by Xia Lan.
“Calling me a bitch? What about you! Plotting so desperately to steal your sister’s marital opportunity, aren’t you a bitch too?” Xia Lan threw Xia Mei’s hand away, said forcefully.
The two of them went back and forth, tearing at each other.
“You shameless thing!”
“Okay, okay, stop fighting!” Aunt Xia finally realized what was happening and stepped forward to break up the fight.
Although she said this, her actions were biased.
Aunt Xia restrained Xia Lan’s hands, allowing Xia Mei to hit her.
Ultimately, under the intentional or unintentional “assistance” of Aunt Xia, Xia Mei managed to slap Xia Lan several times.
Satisfied at last, Xia Mei let go, and only then did Aunt Xia act like she was having a hard time separating them, standing between the two.
“We are all family, two sisters, can’t we talk nicely?” She said earnestly, her tone heavy with care.
At this moment, Grandma Xia also stepped in.
“Bang, bang,” she slammed her hand on the table angrily, with a furious face: “What are you doing, making such a commotion right before my eyes? Where do you place me, an old lady?”
This was also partiality, she spoke only after the fight had ended.
Checking over the two that were fighting, Xia Mei’s hair was a bit disheveled and her clothes a bit untidy, but she had no marks on her face.
And Xia Lan, with her hair in a disarray and her face red, with tears brimming in her eyes.
“Grandma, don’t blame me, I didn’t mean to… I was just so upset… I, I can apologize to Sister Mei…” Xia Lan began sobbing.
Because of Xia Lan’s usually soft and weak image, coupled with her present disheveled and pitiful state, she looked even more sympathetic than usual, especially standing beside the domineering and arrogant Xia Mei, immediately turning into a pitiable figure.
It made everyone completely forget her frenzied behavior earlier.
It turned out to be a plan to gain sympathy!
Xia Chuyi understood at that moment.
No wonder, given Xia Lan’s capability, despite such a serious tangle, Xia Mei had not a single mark on her.
Once any injuries appeared on her face, Grandma Xia couldn’t excessively favor her, and Mrs. He, having seen this scene, would probably hold an even worse opinion of Xia Mei.
Xia Chuyi curled her lips into a smile, then promptly stood before everyone.
“Yes, Grandma, you believe in Sister Lan, don’t you? She really spoke without thinking!”
Xia Chuyi unexpectedly spoke well of Xia Lan, which nobody had anticipated, and at that moment, everyone looked at her.
Xia Chuyi cocked her head to the side and said earnestly, “Grandma, think about it, Sister Lan said the person who tries to steal the sister’s marriage opportunity is a bitch, doesn’t that mean she inadvertently cursed herself too?”
