Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord
Chapter 272 - Chapter 272 Chapter 272 Housekeeper Zhang

Chapter 272: Chapter 272 Housekeeper Zhang Chapter 272: Chapter 272 Housekeeper Zhang “If you do not release Miss Mo at once, should any harm come her way, I will never forgive you, you despicable servants.” Housekeeper Zhang berated several workers ferociously.

The workers were incredibly aggrieved; it had been Housekeeper Zhang who had ordered them to act this way. Now, why were they being blamed? Feeling even more anxious, they feared Housekeeper Zhang might hold them accountable, so they carefully looked at him. “Housekeeper, wasn’t it you who….”

Before the workers could finish their sentence, they saw Housekeeper Zhang wink at them vigorously and immediately understood what was happening. It turned out that the housekeeper was just putting on a show for the clueless little girl.

“We deserve to die, we deserve to die; we misunderstood the housekeeper’s intentions, we really shouldn’t have treated Miss Mo this way.”

“Yes, yes, at the very least, we should have found a more comfortable place; this here is too dilapidated.”

Knowing that the housekeeper was merely acting, the workers secretly heaved a sigh of relief, hurried forward, and quickly untied the burlap sack, releasing Xuexue and respectfully apologizing, “Miss Mo, we have offended you.”

“Hmph!”

Watching their clumsy performance, Xuexue snorted coldly and stepped out of the burlap sack.

“Miss Mo, my workers were blind to your greatness and offended you. You are a magnanimous person, I beg you not to take it to heart,” Housekeeper Zhang said to Xuexue with a beaming smile.

“And you are?”

Xuexue feigned ignorance as she sized him up. The sight of Housekeeper Zhang, in his forties with a paunch like a pig’s belly, made it clear he was a nouveau riche. With his jowly and fat face, he was now smiling like a jolly Buddha, giving the impression of kindness to those who did not know any better.

“I am Zhang, the shopkeeper of the Great Harmony Restaurant,” Housekeeper Zhang introduced himself to Xuexue, smiling benignly.

“As if it’s thunder reverberating in my ears,” Xuexue said with a tone of sarcasm. Indeed, it was their first meeting, yet she had already suffered from his attempts to harm her multiple times. Of course, in the past, because Big Bull was with her, his men never succeeded.

Housekeeper Zhang was also examining Xuexue, thinking to himself that this little girl, despite her tender age, was not only stunningly beautiful but had also managed to concoct flavorful loaches and out-of-season garlic sprouts. She had nearly toppled his dominant Great Harmony Restaurant in Jingshan Town. She was not to be underestimated. He needed to figure out a way to woo her over to his side and then take down Xiaohe Restaurant.

“Miss, this place isn’t really suitable for chatting. How about we change locations and sit down for a talk at a more suitable spot?” Housekeeper Zhang suggested, glancing around at the room filled with cobwebs, dust, and clutter.

Xuexue laughed mockingly, “This place, wasn’t it carefully selected by Housekeeper Zhang? What’s wrong now? Have you grown disdainful of it all of a sudden?”

“This… this… Ah! A misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding. My workers are ignorant and have offended Miss Mo; I will have them apologize to you.” After speaking, Housekeeper Zhang turned his head and fiercely scolded the workers, “You blind fools, why don’t you hurry over here and kowtow to Miss Mo to admit your wrongdoings? You are truly a bunch of useless freeloaders.”

The workers were extremely indignant inside, as it had clearly been the housekeeper who had instructed them, yet now, they had to apologize to this little girl.

Seeing their reluctant demeanor, Housekeeper Zhang grew angry and yelled at them again, “What? You dare to disobey my orders? Do you no longer wish to work here?”

Hearing this, the workers shivered all over, as they needed this salary to support their families. They did not want Housekeeper Zhang to fire them, so they hurriedly stepped forward and kneeled before Xuexue, “Miss, we are sorry, we were wrong. Please forgive us.”
