Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 122 - Finding Faults

Chapter 122 -122 Finding Faults

“Exactly! Auntie Sun sought out the matchmaker just for show, in the end, she found that man herself,” another woman chimed in.

“If you ask me, this woman is truly sinister, acting like a good person on the surface, while doing filthy things in secret that can’t be seen in daylight.”

“Indeed, who knows if that man from the other night is her secret lover. I always find Auntie Sun to be quite coy, always applying makeup before stepping out, hardly the conduct of a decent and respectable lady.”

“God forbid, we can’t just say things like that. If the Mo family hears about this, it would be the end of us.”

“Pfft, what’s there to be afraid of? They can do all those filthy deeds and yet we’re not allowed to have our say?”

The group of women buzzed with various opinions, and for a moment, they completely forgot about the presence of Big Bull.

Xuexue was very clear about Auntie Sun framing her, and this grievance, as well as the grudge from her past life when Auntie Sun caused the death of her foster mother, she would slowly reclaim, otherwise, her second chance at life would be in vain.

“Big Bull, let’s wash over here.” Xuexue found a spot and instructed Big Bull to set down the wooden tub full of clothes.

Now that it was winter, one didn’t need to change clothes daily, but since they wore more layers, there were more to wash. Washing a big tub of clothes took so much time that by the time they finished, the sun had risen.

“Oh my! We’re finally done!” Big Bull stood up, stretched his back, and felt some joy. Now that the laundry was done, he could finally go home for breakfast, his stomach was already growling in hunger.

“Gurgle gurgle!”

Just as Big Bull spoke, his stomach made a rumbling sound like thunder, he covered his stomach and looked at Xuexue with an embarrassed smile.

“Hungry, aren’t you?” Xuexue understood that they had been washing clothes for so long, it was not early anymore. Big Bull, a young man, naturally burned through his energy quickly, and even she was already starving.

“Yeah.”

“Let’s go, let’s head home for some food, mother must have kept the meal warm for us.” After Xuexue spoke, she bent down, picked up the wooden tub, and started walking.

“My lady, let me do it.” Big Bull stepped forward, took the wooden tub from Xuexue’s hands.

The Old Residence

Madam Xie and Chuner were sitting at the doorway, and as soon as they saw them return, they came over to greet them…

“You went to the riverside to wash clothes early in the morning, aren’t you frozen?” Madam Xie took the wooden tub from Big Bull, but her eyes were fixed on Xuexue, filled with worry and pain.

Xuexue smiled and said to Big Bull, “I’m not cold, with Big Bull with me, it was much faster than usual.”

Only then did Madam Xie turn to Big Bull and said, “Hurry inside and have something hot to eat, warm up a bit. Leave the clothes to me to hang and dry!”

“Mother, won’t you eat with us?” Xuexue stopped in her tracks and turned to ask.

“We’ve been waiting for you for so long, Chuner was hungry, so we ate first. We left the rest warm in the pot for you, go on and eat.” Madam Xie waved them off.

“Okay!”

While Xuexue and Big Bull were eating in the main hall, a commotion came from outside. Amidst the din, they heard a man’s harsh shouts and the desperate pleas of Madam Xie.

“What’s going on?”

Xuexue and Big Bull exchanged glances, put down their chopsticks, and stood up together.

“Big Bull, don’t go, just sit down and finish your meal,” Xuexue thought it should be nothing serious, most likely the Mo family causing trouble again. It was perfect timing since they hadn’t settled the score for the broken lock the day before.

“But…”

“It’s nothing, don’t worry. On my mother’s turf, they wouldn’t dare to cause a disturbance,” Xuexue interrupted him, forcibly pushing him back down onto the stool.

“Uh! Alright then.” Big Bull watched as Xuexue walked out, feeling helpless, he picked up his bowl to continue eating, but his ears were attentively listening to the noise outside.
