Xia Yingba opened his mouth, and both Huxin and the common people on the street simultaneously felt a wave of discomfort.
In the past decade, there has been a saying among the citizens of the capital: "Among all the good men in the world, only the man in red is a disaster! Marry a chicken, marry a dog, marry a fierce ghost, but do not marry the Red-Clothed Rebellious Ancestor!"
Here, the Red-Clothed Rebellious Ancestor naturally refers to Xuan Yuan Ling!
Upon hearing Xia Yingba say this, Xuan Yuan Ling was completely unfazed by Huxin's suddenly darkened expression. Instead, he perked up, his eyes shining as he glanced at Huxin. That look made Huxin feel uneasy all over, and she quickly shifted her gaze back to Xia Yingba.
She certainly did not want to be targeted by Xuan Yuan Ling! Just looking at his red attire every day was already more than enough!
Xuan Yuan Ling did not expect Huxin to show such a disdainful expression. His gaze dimmed slightly, but he maintained the same playful smile on his face.
"Daughter greets Father; you have worked hard," Huxin said respectfully to Xia Yingba. In the next moment, Xia Yingba flicked his cloak behind him, sending it soaring through the air in a magnificent arc before unceremoniously throwing it onto Huxin's face.
"Can you really call me 'Father' so properly? I must take a good look to see if the sun has risen from the west today! Hold this for me!"
After scolding her, Xia Yingba not only threw his cloak to Huxin, but also tossed her his long sword, short sword, outer armor, and even his canteen, making her hold everything.
Huxin was astonished. With her left hand holding her father's cloak and armor and her right hand holding his long sword and short sword, a purple sandalwood canteen hung around her neck. Just the outer armor weighed dozens of pounds; combined with the swords, it easily exceeded a hundred pounds. It was questionable whether Huxin's body even weighed a hundred pounds.
If Huxin stood still at that moment, she would be nothing more than a multifunctional clothes rack.
With a belly full of anger and nowhere to vent it, she had to maintain her composure since the citizens on both sides of the street were watching. Not only had she crossed over to become someone’s daughter but now she also had to do all this labor! Other people who crossed over pretended to be strong and cunning; at the very least, they acted like refined young ladies. Why was she stuck playing the role of a clothes rack?
Huxin stood there motionless, and Qing Yan stared at her in shock, wanting to step forward to help, but the expression on their master’s face clearly indicated that no one was allowed to assist. Qing Yan could only obediently lower her head and silently worry for Huxin.
Originally, Xia Yingba thought it was time to greet Jing Tian'ao, but unexpectedly, he turned and approached the Liuli Purple Palanquin, speaking lightly to Liu Yuren inside.
“General Liu, this is your first visit to the Xia Family. Later, I will arrange for my daughter Huxin to take the general to the backyard to rest. The general's courtyard is adjacent to my daughter’s, so if the general needs anything, they can look out for each other, which makes me feel more at ease.”
As soon as Xia Yingba finished speaking, Huxin relaxed her hands, and the things she was holding fell to the ground with a clatter, except for the purple sandalwood water bottle that remained securely around her neck.
The scene was not only shocking for Huxin, but also left Jing Tian'ao and Xuan Yuan Ling with expressions of disbelief as they looked at Xia Yingba.
Kneeling there, Hui Ting was so astonished that she forgot to continue crying, while Golden Branch bit her lip in frustration.
Why did all the good fortune these past few days fall upon Xia Huxin? Jing Tian'ao’s attitude towards her had shifted from disdain to an inability to look away. Both Xuan Yuan Ling and Gu Family Hong Ye were helping her openly and secretly, and now even Liu Yuren had come to her aid in the Imperial Garden! Now, with Liu Yuren residing in the Xia Family, he would be living next door to her!
Why did all the good things in the world belong to Xia Huxin!
She, Xia Jinzhi, refused to accept it! As long as she was around, she would definitely take everything that belonged to Xia Huxin!
