Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord

Xuexue put down her chopsticks and patiently said, "Grandmother, these are all made from simple ingredients. The colors in the tofu are all from ground vegetables, which is very healthy and beneficial for the body. Grandmother, please eat at ease."

"Is that so? What vegetable is this red tofu made from? The color is so blood-red, it looks quite spine-chilling, but it does have a refreshing taste when eaten." The Old Madam asked, pointing at a piece of blood-red tofu on the plate.

"This is made from a type of wild vegetable that also has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, and it’s beautifying and calming as well. Grandmother, you can eat more of it. It will help you sleep well, and naturally, you will look better."

Upon hearing this, the Old Madam was very happy: "Good, good! Xuexue is truly filial to her grandmother."

Situ Yongjie was also pleased and smiled, saying, "Mother, how is my eldest daughter? Not bad, right?"

"Indeed, not bad. I just came back today and discovered that Xuexue is truly a good child," the Old Madam said with a nod and a smile.

When she had just returned, she specifically made things difficult for Xuexue, but unexpectedly, Xuexue bore no grudges and even risked herself to save her when the plaque fell. With this single incident, the Old Madam’s opinion of her changed a lot.

Xuexue was so pleasing to the Old Madam, which made Situtu Qinger and her sisters quite jealous. However, in front of the Old Madam and Situ Yongjie, they did not dare to act rashly and just quietly ate their meal, with their heads lowered.

There was no helping it—after their mother was demoted to the manor, they, as her children, could only keep their heads down.

Situ Zhi was the overbearing young master of the house, but couldn’t care less. He glared fiercely at Xuexue and said mockingly, "Grandmother, you’re making too much of a fuss. She comes from a peasant background, so of course, she can cook. It’s just preparing a dish, what’s so amazing about that? If she could play music and sing like the second sister, that would be truly surprising."

Upon hearing this, everyone’s movements while eating paused for a moment.
