A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace

Chapter 1323: Chapter 1321: Retribution 2

"Isn’t that so? Boss Huang truly knows how to handle things generously and with such wealth!"

The fat old man called Boss Huang instantly became the center of attention in the crowd.

Those who could talk to him quickly went up to flatter him, while others gossiped quietly among themselves.

"Hey! Those three girls from the Tang Family won’t survive long in Old Huang’s hands!" someone declared confidently.

"Why?"

"You don’t know?" the person replied with disdain.

A moment later, he lowered his voice and continued.

"Old Master Tang was once a business rival of his. The two have been competing in Jinling City for many years, neither able to overpower the other!"

"Now... Old Master Tang has finally fallen. No eggs remain unbroken under a fallen nest, and the Tang Family girls are likely to be devoured until there’s nothing left!"

Someone nearby had doubts.

"Devoured how? He’s so old now, what can he do?"

The person lowered his voice again, looking mysterious.

"Old Huang was a notorious womanizer in his youth. How could he possibly accept old age? I heard he found a monk from somewhere and obtained a secret sea remedy!"

"Even over sixty, he wields the Golden Spear, spending nights with multiple women! It’s incredible... tsk tsk tsk!"

The surrounding people gasped in astonishment.

"Is it true?"

"Of course, it’s true!"

The person spoke animatedly, saliva flying, as if he had witnessed it himself.

The onlookers listened with great interest.

...

In a chaotic mess.

The three young ladies of the Tang Family had already signed the deed of sale and were about to be taken by Old Master Huang.

Just at this moment.

A delicate and elegant carriage approached from the end of the street, stopping in the middle of the scene.

A team of guards surrounded the carriage, indicating the owner’s extraordinary status.

The crowd craned their necks to see.

A richly dressed woman exited the carriage, wearing a veiled hat and accompanied by a maid, and gracefully walked towards the Tang Three Sisters.

The crowd, which was about to disperse, immediately gathered around to watch again.

"Yo! Who’s that?"

"I don’t know, with a veiled hat, could she be here to rescue them?"

"Hmm, maybe!"

"I don’t think so!"

"Hey, just watch and see, why speculate?"

Amid various speculations, the woman walked straight to Old Master Huang.

They exchanged a few polite words.

Then she approached the three young women behind Old Master Huang.

She frowned, saying nothing, and surveyed them back and forth.

Then she stood there silently and motionlessly.

The Tang Three Sisters were filled with anxiety, their hearts pounding.

Tang Ying finally couldn’t hold back and spoke.

"Fourth... Little Sister!"

"After all, we are sisters. You can’t bear to see us... in such a plight, right?!"

"We share the same father; we are flesh and blood kin, we are real sisters!"

"Fourth sister, please save us!"

"Dear sister, we know you are cold on the outside but warm-hearted inside, you’ll surely save us, won’t you?"

The three were scared to death and begged for mercy.

Xiao Chuan said nothing on the side, and Tang Xun showed no reaction.

Tang Ying had an ominous feeling rising in her heart.

"Sister, you’re here to save us, right?"

"You... you should speak with Old Master Huang and get us out!"

Although she knew the hope was slim, she still wanted to make every effort to save them.

If they missed this chance, it would mean life or death.

...

After an unknown amount of time, Tang Xun finally spoke.

Her voice remained cold and clear.

"Sisters? Such a strange term!"

"If I remember correctly, my mother passed away when I was very young, so I have no sisters!"

"As for you? Sorry, I don’t recognize you!"

The tiny glimmer of hope that had just arisen in the hearts of the Tang Three Sisters was instantly extinguished.

"Fourth sister, you..."

"Then you...??"

"Wondering why I’m here, is that it?" Tang Xun cut in.

The three suppressed their words.

Tang Xun sneered again.

"I might as well tell you directly!"

"I came to see you, not to save you, but to remember how pathetic you look today!"

"I was wretched for over ten years; today it’s finally your turn, heaven has opened its eyes!"

She spoke each word through gritted teeth, feeling a surge of joy and satisfaction in her heart!

Xiao Chuan nodded fiercely beside her.

"Well said, Madam!"

The Tang Three Sisters, who were about to protest, lost their momentum upon hearing the word "Madam."

After all, she was the Prefectural Lady.

Even if they had ten guts, they wouldn’t dare confront her!

The present is not like the past; everything has changed!

Tang Xun did what she said.

She meticulously sized each of them up before leaving satisfied, with Xiao Chuan following.

Not only were the Tang sisters stunned, but even the crowd was taken aback.

"Wasn’t this the lowest-ranked, most unacknowledged Fourth Miss of the Tang Family?"

"Huh? The Tang Family had a Fourth Miss? Never heard of it!"

"She was the daughter of a performing concubine, never acknowledged by the Tang Family, raised as a servant!"

"I heard that Lady Zhu abused her quite a bit!"

"Oh! So that’s how it is!"

The crowd suddenly understood.

No wonder she reacted this way.

The Tang Family didn’t acknowledge her back then, and now she doesn’t have to acknowledge the Tang Family.

Revenge is justified, everyone nodded.

Seeing there was no more drama to watch, the crowd finally began to disperse.

...

Old Master Huang took the beauties home, suddenly bringing back three young ladies.

Legitimately born, legitimately born oh!

That night, Old Master Huang happily laughed himself awake in his dreams.

"Hahahahaha... hahahaha..."

Lady Huang was initially unhappy, but seeing that they were Tang Family daughters, and her husband was pleased, she didn’t object too much.

’Humph! Just three little sluts, they can’t cause any real trouble, can they?’

’They’re just for fun. If it’s not them, there’d be others!’

Lady Huang thought it through, even feeling joy.

’If the master takes them as concubines, that makes me the Family Matriarch!’

’Then they’d have to serve me tea and attend me morning and night!’

’I would have enough reason to torment them as much as I wished!’

"Hahahahaha..."

With that thought, Lady Huang laughed as well and muttered to herself.

"Wasn’t that Lady Zhu always bragging about her family’s wealth, and how capable her husband was?"

"Let’s see how you brag now!"

"Your daughters are taken by my husband, and you yourself are dismissed, I’m going to enrage you!"

The more Lady Huang thought about it, the happier she felt, as if all the grievances she suffered from Lady Zhu over the years had been compensated for, her heart delightful!

...

Days later, just before the New Year.

Old Master Huang hadn’t yet suggested taking them as concubines, but Lady Huang had hinted openly and covertly several times.
