Bab 358: Even My Heart Feels Sweet

"Chuchu, is this woman really your aunt? She doesn't seem like a young mistress to me. She seems more like a vixen of a village instead, almost like Madam Yang," said Madam Kong to Zhao Chuchu. "My husband said that the Xia clan is rich. Is that true?"

Zhao Chuchu nodded and replied, "Hmm, the chief is right. The Xia clan is indeed very wealthy, but that has nothing to do with me. If my mother was truly a member of the Xia clan, then why didn't they come looking for her all these years? When I was treated harshly by Madam Yang, where were they? They only came over because they saw the benefits they could reap from me. As for whether or not my mother was a member of the Xia clan, that is not important at all."

Madam Kong also felt the same.

No matter how wealthy the Xia clan was, the clan was neither affectionate nor righteous.
