Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 1540 - 341. Catching the Petty Thief (Third Watch)

These past few days, Xia Zheng had been stationed in the General Mansion tracking down the little thief who stole the betrothal gifts. After discussing with Lin Yuan, who also found it odd, they both returned to the General Mansion together after a while.

Just as they stepped out of the room, Lin Yuan spotted Huai Hua, her hands wrapped in cotton, sneakily peering at her.

More precisely, peering at Xia Zheng beside her.

Lin Yuan shook her head, both amused and annoyed. Was this girl still not giving up?

"Let’s make a trip to the General Mansion, Shui Xian, and don’t forget to make clothes for Qing Cheng and Xue Ya."

After casting a glance at Huai Hua, Lin Yuan added, "And Huai Hua too. Although she is wearing silk clothes, they aren’t convenient for work. Make her a set as well!"

Shui Xian nodded in agreement.

Just as Lin Yuan was about to instruct Shui Xian to teach them some basic rules, she was abruptly interrupted by an eager Huai Hua.

"Miss, your servant thanks you for your generosity."

Though displeased by the sudden interruption, Lin Yuan just frowned slightly and nodded.

However, Huai Hua, clearly thinking herself smart, got even bolder seeing Lin Yuan’s passive response: "Miss, your servant, your servant wishes to stay and work in Dong Tian, may I?"

Huai Hua looked at Lin Yuan expectantly, her eyes gleaming with hope.

Lin Yuan raised her eyebrows, glanced at Xia Zheng, and realized this girl had finally given up on him; otherwise, she wouldn’t have volunteered to stay at Dong Tian.

Initially, her deception in selling herself was merely because she and her mother were greedy and oppressed others, along with this girl’s longing for Xia Zheng.

Now that she had let go of this obsession, Lin Yuan decided to let her stay in Dong Tian. If she proved capable, she could stay; if not, further plans would be made!

Nodding her head, Lin Yuan directed Shui Xian to take her to Yin Xing.

All the girls in Dong Tian were taught their manners by Yin Xing. Now that she was handed over to Yin Xing, let Yin Xing "strictly instruct" her!

No sooner had Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng’s carriage departed from Dong Tian than another carriage arrived at the entrance. The carriage looked ordinary, but the coachman was extraordinary.

Dressed in a dark-colored short outfit, his hair also tied back with a black band, his features were above average with a rugged facial structure, especially his slightly hooked nose. Such a man gave off a distinctly handsome vibe.

However, everyone was shocked when he jumped down from the carriage. He was really short!

He appeared even shorter than an average woman; if Lin Yuan had been there, this man would only reach up to her nose.

For a man, such height was indeed a disadvantage!

Yet, this short man had a pair of bright, piercing eyes that, coupled with his hooked nose, brought to mind a majestic eagle in the sky – wise and calm yet fiercely aloof.

As soon as this man got off the carriage, he turned his back to it and bent his upper body at a peculiar angle.

Already being short, bending like this made him a bit shorter than the carriage.

It wouldn’t have been so memorable if that was all.

As the short man bent down, the carriage curtain was lifted, and an ink jade bone fan was extended from inside.

Before anyone could get a clear look at the hand holding the fan, the owner of the fan had already stepped out with a light chuckle.

The moment he appeared, he immediately drew the attention of countless onlookers, even prompting the women in Dontian Hall to involuntarily turn their heads and gaze intently at him.

The man’s thin lips slightly curled, his phoenix eyes almost smiling. His hair was meticulously combed, and even his thick eyebrows were neat and distinct.

Moreover, this man was very handsome. If it weren’t for the prominent Adam’s apple, one might think he was an exceptionally good-looking woman.

Just as he exited the carriage, he stepped onto the back of the short man.

His black boots, with the tips turned up, shone brightly, showcasing a beautiful cloud pattern.

However, these patterns weren’t embroidered with gold thread. Upon closer inspection, one could see that they were actually made from various colored tiny gemstones.

Everyone loves gemstones, especially large, smooth, and unusually colored ones.

Yet this man had various colored gemstones crushed into small pieces and used them to decorate his shoes. Oh, how much silver that must have cost!
