This move on Mei Feng's part was too sudden, so Xia Yehua was certainly not prepared and rather shocked.
However, no one stepped forward to help her up, even after they got over the initial surprise.
She had broken up Xia Yehua's family and caused Xia Yehua and her son to leave the Shen family without a cent in their pockets. Hence, no one felt that the kneeling was uncalled for.
Xia Yehua certainly had earned the right to deserve it.
She laughed icily and asked, "What do you think you're doing?"
Qiao Lian played along with much sarcasm and said, "Mom, I do remember learning somewhere that in the old days, concubines marrying into a family would have to bow down to the lawful wife and head of the household. I wonder if Madam Mei here is asking you to acknowledge her place in the family?"
The atmosphere of the solemnly silent room at once became relaxed with Qiao Lian's evil sense of humor.
Mocked, Mei Feng's expression visibly darkened.
