Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1538 - 339, Huai Hua’s Little Mind (One More Update)
Chapter 1538: 339, Huai Hua’s Little Mind (One More Update)
Lin Yuan glanced at her, brushed her sleeves, and swept the teapot and teacup that were split in half onto the floor; the fine porcelain immediately cracked.
"Hmph! Hit you?" Lin Yuan snorted coldly with a laugh and tapped the table with her finger, then fell silent.
Shui Xian immediately interjected, "What did I just tell you? In front of Miss, you should not call yourself ’I,’ you should call yourself ’servant.’"
After a pause, Shui Xian continued, "Also, without Miss’s indication, a servant should not speak or move freely. Who allowed you to touch the teapot? You don’t understand the rules!"
Seeing Shui Xian’s contemptuous face, Huai Hua felt both anger and frustration, but she was unable to lash out and could only look towards Xia Zheng with watery eyes.
Yet to her surprise, Xia Zheng, who had previously shown interest in her, was now ignoring her.
Huai Hua became flustered; had she done something wrong, causing Xia Zheng to find her unattractive now?
At that moment of panic and dismay, Xia Zheng suddenly raised his hand and arched his eyebrows, speaking solemnly, "Isn’t that lack of understanding the rules? What rules would a wild village girl know?"
"Shui Xian."
Lin Yuan glanced at Xia Zheng and said to Shui Xian, "Take her out and properly teach her the rules. Today is the first time. If there is a second time, it won’t just be a slap on the hands."
Shui Xian nodded her head, bowed, and then prepared to take Huai Hua out for the "lesson."
However, before the two had even left the room, Lin Yuan suddenly spoke again, "There’s also the most important point Shui Xian didn’t tell you."
Huai Hua was slightly stunned, turned back to look at Lin Yuan, and felt the woman’s smile was particularly chilling.
Lin Yuan’s red lips slowly parted, and she slowly uttered a sentence, "Whatever the master wants you to do, you must do. If she wants to hit you, she hits you. What right do you have to question?"
Huai Hua shuddered, suddenly remembering the words Lin Yuan had asked before she signed the death contract; what if she was beaten, killed, or sold to a brothel.
At the time, she thought Lin Yuan was just speaking casually, but now she realized that wasn’t the case at all. Lin Yuan was serious.
She was capable of doing such things.
"Clear these up."
After one last remark, Lin Yuan waved her hand, letting Shui Xian and Huai Hua out.
Once outside, Huai Hua had not yet recovered from the shock, her previously alert eyes now dull.
Seeing Huai Hua stunned like a wooden chicken, Shui Xian couldn’t help but find it amusing and suddenly slapped her on the back.
"Ah!"
Huai Hua shrieked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, letting out a terrified scream.
Shui Xian was also startled and slapped her chest, giving Huai Hua a glare, "Keep it down! If someone hears you, they’ll think I hit you!"
Patting her wildly pounding heart, Huai Hua regained her senses and glared, screaming, "Are you trying to kill me! How dare you hit me!"
Shui Xian was taken aback; it was the first time she had been shouted at like this!
However, she quickly realized, this must be the real Huai Hua at home!
"Oh! Huai Hua, well done, talking like that!"
Shui Xian was not someone to mess with. She had not quarreled with others before, but having seen Yinxing Sisters repeatedly pressured by Widow Qiao to hand over silver, her anger had been suppressed for too long.
Now that Huai Hua had lashed out, it was time to settle scores and take revenge!
After cursing Shui Xian, Huai Hua was also dumbfounded; in her hurry, she had forgotten she was no longer the assertive young lady she had been at home. She had been sold to Lin Yuan and was now a little maid!
"Sister Shui Xian, I—I didn’t mean, I just..."
I must say, Huai Hua is just like her mother, with a slick tongue and a scheming mind, instantly starting to flatter Shui Xian.
However, Shui Xian really had no interest in her, considering she bullied the Yinxing Sisters and even fancied the young mistress’s man. Don’t think she didn’t see this wretched girl trying to touch Xia Zheng’s hand just now!
Pulling her hand away from Huai Hua, Shui Xian showed a face full of resistance: "Don’t, I’m not your sister! You don’t have a sister, the only one you had is gone!"
Huai Hua choked, wanting to say something, only to find a dustpan suddenly thrust into her hand by Shui Xian. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"Go! Clean up the shards in the room!"
Watching Shui Xian, who crossed her arms and lifted her chin uninterestedly, Huai Hua widened her eyes and asked, "Me?"
"What? You want me to do it?"
Shui Xian incredulously pointed to her own nose, her eyes wide: "Are you deaf or dumb! Didn’t you understand what the young mistress just said? She told you to clean up, if you don’t then who will?"
Huai Hua swallowed, looking at the dustpan in her hand, and added, "I’ll go, I’ll go. But, isn’t there a broom?"
How can you clean without a broom? By hand?
Shui Xian coldly lifted her chin: "Use your hands!"
Huai Hua incredulously exclaimed, looking at her own delicate and fair hands with pity.
Back at home, she never did any chores, not to mention picking up broken porcelain pieces with her hands, she had never even swept the floor with a broom!
Such rough and lowly tasks were always done by San Hua and Xiao Hua.
But today, it was her turn.
Huai Hua knew she couldn’t resist, and resistance would be futile anyway since Shui Xian, who was devoted to the Yinxing Sisters, would never regard her highly.
She held the dustpan tightly, pursing her lips and giving Shui Xian a glare before re-entering the room.
You just wait, once I climb into Xia Zheng’s bed, the first one I’ll deal with is you!
Entering the room again, Xia Zheng and Lin Yuan were laughing and talking.
Huai Hua, filled with jealousy, glanced at Lin Yuan and quietly crouched down to pick up the porcelain pieces, with Lin Yuan’s giggles floating down from above.
"Speaking of which, Sister Hui mentioned you’ve been catching a thief these days? Did you catch him?"
Xia Zheng sighed deeply, sounding dejected: "Ah, let’s not talk about it, that thief really is cunning! I waited several days there, and he never showed up! I’ve been missing you so much, that’s why I rushed here today."
By the end, Xia Zheng’s voice had turned seductive and sweet, intoxicating Huai Hua.
Lost in the moment, her finger was immediately cut by a sharp porcelain shard.
"Hisss!"
Huai Hua couldn’t help but gasp in pain, lifting her finger and blowing on it vigorously.
Fortunately, the cut was shallow, just a faint red mark and no blood came out.
Frowning, Huai Hua couldn’t help but complain internally: "Why isn’t it bleeding? If it bled, I wouldn’t have to work."
Thinking this, an idea suddenly struck her: Yes, if I cut my finger deeper, wouldn’t I be excused from work? Not only would I be excused, but I might even gain Xia Zheng’s pity!
Huai Hua sneaked a glance at Xia Zheng, a sly, triumphant smirk flickering in her eyes.
Lowering her head, she viciously scraped her finger on the sharp porcelain shard!
