"Xia Wan, what are you doing? How old are you? Why are you fighting with a child for food?"
Xia Wan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at the person who spoke this time. Wasn't Xia Jiandang's family supposed to be mindless and never interfere in other people's business?
Especially this third aunt, Wu Lanhua, it seems that since she came back, she hasn't said a word or participated in their struggle. What's wrong with her this time?
Xia Jiandang pulled his wife aside and turned to Xia Wan, saying, "Your third aunt didn't mean anything by it. She's just worried that Jinbao has lost weight these past few days and is talking nonsense!"
Wu Lanhua pursed her lips, not refuting her husband. She knew Xia Wan was not someone to be trifled with, but she just couldn't help herself for a moment!
Jinbao has never even eaten steamed egg custard before, so why is Xia Wan, who is an adult, fighting with the child for food when she comes back?
Although it wasn't her own son who was being robbed, she just couldn't stand it, and this resentment had been building up inside her for a long time.
She hated her mother-in-law for being biased. Why did the grandmother only dote on Xia Yuanbao, even though they were all grandsons and about the same age?
Xia Wan finished the last bite of steamed egg custard before looking at Xia Jiandang and his wife: "If you feel sorry for your son, then go and fight for it yourself. Do you expect me to fight for Xia Jinbao? He's not my son."
I thought this third aunt was clever, but tsk tsk, she was overthinking it. It seems she's not very clear-headed either!
"You... your third aunt is right, this steamed egg custard is meant to nourish the child, why are you fighting with a child for food? Don't you act like a proper older sister?"
Old Man Xia glared at Xia Wan, but this time he was smarter and didn't say anything unpleasant.
Xia Wan rolled her eyes: "I'm not that old, why can't I have a bowl of steamed egg custard?"
"Dad, Mom, Jinbao is the same age as Yuanbao, shouldn't he also have a bowl of steamed egg custard?"
Wu Lanhua couldn't help but say something, but she was clearly lacking in confidence because of the long-term oppression she had suffered at the hands of Old Lady Xia.
However, this time Xia Jiandang did not stop him, but lowered his eyes and pretended not to hear!
Grandma Xia doesn't dare to be too presumptuous with Xia Wan now, but that doesn't mean she allows her daughter-in-law to be presumptuous with her!
She yelled at the top of her lungs, "Can your son compare to Yuanbao? A little idiot, does he even deserve to eat steamed egg custard? Bah!"
"Mother, Jinbao is also your grandson. Aren't you going too far by saying that?" Xia Jiandang looked directly at his mother, his face filled with anger!
"You..."
Grandma Xia was about to start cursing, but Grandpa Xia stopped her: "Alright, let's eat. It's okay if there's no steamed egg custard today!"
Xia Wan sneered, showing no appreciation whatsoever. She snatched the cornbread from Xia Yuanbao's hand and took a bite: "This little bit isn't enough for me. Yuanbao is already so fat, he should eat less and lose some weight."
"Waaah... Daddy and Mommy, that brat stole my food! Kill her, kill her!" Xia Yuanbao, who had just stopped crying, started wailing again!
"You brat, what are you trying to do? You can't even keep quiet for a second! Give Yuanbao's steamed buns back right now!"
Grandma Xia reached out to snatch it, but Xia Wan dodged it with a quick movement!
Xia Wan was afraid that she wasn't angry enough, so she bit my head. The taste of the cornbread surprised her!
It turns out that it wasn't just that bowl of steamed egg custard; there was something else hidden inside this cornbread—it even smelled like milk powder!
Although the milk powder mixed in with the cornbread made her feel a little nauseous, that wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was that Grandma Xia had shown such favoritism!
"Hey, why does this cornbread taste different from mine?" Xia Wan said, handing the cornbread to Xia Jiandang. "Third Uncle, try it. It tastes like milk!"
Xia Jiandang paused for a moment before taking the cornbread, then broke off a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, his face immediately darkening.
He didn't know that his parents favored Yuanbao because Jinbao was slow to react, but he didn't know that their favoritism was to this extent.
If milk powder is put into the steamed buns, does that mean Xia Yuanbao eats something different from them every time?
Why? Their own son is just a little slow to react. He's even more well-behaved and sensible than Jinbao. Isn't Yuanbao their own grandson?
Seeing that his face was getting worse and worse, Wu Lanhua couldn't help but break off a piece of the cornbread from his hand and put it in her mouth.
"This...this actually contains milk powder?"
Wu Lanhua screamed, then suddenly remembered something, took the soup in front of Xia Yuanbao and took a sip.
Her idea was simple: if milk powder can be added to cornbread, then surely there must be something in rice water too?
Xia Wan raised an eyebrow as she watched her movements. "Very good, she can even apply what she's learned to other situations!"
"What are you doing? Are you all going to rebel?" Old Mrs. Xia was so angry that she forgot everything else and cursed loudly, "Xia Wan, you troublemaker, get out of here! My house can't tolerate you!"
Xia Wan has always had a fiery temper, and she has toned it down since transmigrating, but now she doesn't want to wrong herself at all!
Seeing that she had stirred up enough trouble, she flipped the table over, scattering bowls, chopsticks, and food all over the floor, her intention being that if she didn't eat, no one else could either!
"Even pigs wouldn't eat this stuff, and you seem quite fond of it! Since the food isn't being distributed evenly, then nobody should eat any." Xia Wan said with a smile, showing no sign of anger.
Seeing that these people hadn't reacted yet, she looked at them with disdain and disgust, and began to mock them mercilessly.
"You call me a troublemaker? Well, I'll show you what a troublemaker I am today!"
After Xia Wan finished speaking, she didn't give anyone else any time to react. After venting her dissatisfaction, she turned around and left without looking back.
Behind them came the furious shouts and rebukes of the Xia family members.
