Lady Yao pondered for a while but still didn't believe it. It must be this wench framing her! What nonsense about rank, what nonsense about rules! Under the heavens, she had never heard of a mother having to kneel before her daughter. Even the Imperial Palace cannot discard filial piety!
With this thought, Lady Yao felt righteous again.
"Pah!"
"What a cunning Palace Maid, daring to mock Madam here!"
Xia Ruyi also chimed in from the side, "Exactly! Who do you think you are to dare mock my mother! Do you know who she is?"
Xia Ruyi was practically ruined by Lady Yao's upbringing. Whatever her mother did, she would do the same—a truly spoiled young lady of privilege.
