Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 145 - New Year’s Goods
Chapter 145 -145 New Year’s Goods
“Madam, that carriage driver was so nice, he didn’t even charge us for the ride,” Big Bull, carrying the basket, chatted happily with Xuexue as they walked.
“It’s because we were good to him, so he was good to us,” Xuexue smiled enigmatically. This time, Lady Li suffered both physically and mentally. A whole basket of eggs—that would hurt her for a quite while. She dared to target us, so she had to pay through the nose.
“Eh! Big Bull, when you threw Lady Li off the carriage, she wasn’t seriously hurt, right?” Xuexue, realizing only afterward, now thought of the consequences.
“Don’t worry! She’s fine, I didn’t use much force, just tossed her off the carriage,” Big Bull said, though simple-minded, his face showed a touch of nonchalance.
“Oh! Then I’m relieved.” Xuexue breathed a sigh of relief; after all, this was a remote and poor place, being too ostentatious wouldn’t be good.
“At most, she might have scraped her skin, or broken a leg,” Big Bull gulped down some saliva and continued.
“What?”
“What’s wrong? Madam, did I do something wrong?” Xuexue’s voice raised noticeably, and Big Bull quickly asked.
“No, it’s fine! Hehe…!” Xuexue laughed dryly.
Big Bull was only trying to help her; she couldn’t find it in her to scold him. Xuexue just laughed dryly a few times. Besides, Lady Li really had it coming. Since it was done, so be it. Next time, she’d just have to remind Big Bull to be a bit gentler.
The old residence
Chuner sat at the door waiting for Xuexue and Big Bull to return. As soon as she saw them appear around the corner, she bounced up and dashed towards them…

“Big Bull Brother, sister.”
“Chuner is so good, waiting for your sister to come back, right?”
“Mm! Mom is cooking; I couldn’t help, so I waited at the door.”
“What did you and Mom do at home today?” Xuexue, one hand on the fabric on her shoulder, the other tousling Chuner’s hair, asked with a smile.
“Washed clothes, cleaned the quilts, swept the house, and also went to the hillside to dig up wild vegetables,” Chuner counted on her fingers, listing each task.
“Chuner is amazing, you did more things than we did at the market.” Big Bull also said with a smile.
“Not at all, Big Bull Brother is the greatest, both can beat up the bad guys and help sister carry things,” Chuner said, glancing eagerly into the basket, “What did you buy today? It looks rather heavy!”
“We bought New Year’s goods; there’s so much stuff. We’ll show you one by one once we get back home,” Xuexue said with a beaming smile.
“Really? That’s great! We have New Year’s goods too!” Chuner clapped her hands in delight.
In her memory, at the Mo family, other than getting an extra piece of meat for the New Year, things like New Year’s goods had nothing to do with them. Now, hearing that Xuexue had bought New Year’s goods, Chuner couldn’t help but feel excited as any child would.
During their talk, they had already entered the big gate of the old residence.
Hearing the noise, Madam Xie came out of the kitchen.
“You’re back?” Madam Xie immediately noticed the fabric on Xuexue’s shoulder, “Xuexue, did you buy fabric?”
“Yes! It’s New Year’s after all, we can’t be too shabby, can we? So I bought two pieces of fabric to make a new set of clothes for everyone in our family.”
“That’s good, you two sisters haven’t worn new clothes for many years.” Madam Xie looked at Xuexue, who was clad in garments covered with patches, and felt guilty. She came from a noble background, yet was unfortunate to undergo family misfortune, becoming a simple country girl in a remote village, eating wild vegetables with her every day.
Xuexue knew that today’s setback for Lady Li would not be the end; she certainly wouldn’t let it go. Given her close relationship with Madam Ruan, and their like-mindedness, she would definitely go to the Mo family and add fuel to the fire, exaggerating the story of their New Year’s shopping.
