Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord
Chapter 465 - Chapter 465 Chapter 465 Blind Eyes

Chapter 465: Chapter 465 Blind Eyes Chapter 465: Chapter 465 Blind Eyes “You guys can go now,” Big Bull waved his hand and coldly said to Long Yi and the others.

The Master just used them and then dumped them, which left Long Yi feeling quite helpless.

“Big Bull, don’t be like that. They kindly brought me back without asking for Silver, at least invite them in for a cup of tea to show our gratitude,” Xuexue hurriedly blocked Big Bull’s way.

Big Bull didn’t want Long Yi and the others to visit their house, fearing they might accidentally reveal his identity. He thought it would be better for him and Xuexue to talk about this, so, with a quick turn of thoughts, he came up with an excuse, “Wife, I’m afraid that wouldn’t be proper.”

Xuexue frowned and looked at him puzzled, “Oh? Let’s hear it then, why isn’t it proper?”

“The old lady doesn’t know what happened yesterday. If we invite them in, and they accidentally mention that you walked back from the County Town, wouldn’t that give us away?” Big Bull whispered in Xuexue’s ear.

Xuexue thought about it and saw his point, so she didn’t insist on inviting Long Yi and the others in for tea anymore, also whispering, “How about we give them some Silver as carriage fare instead?”

It didn’t sit well with Xuexue’s conscience to not offer anything in return for being brought back for free.

“Look how well-dressed they are; they don’t seem to be lacking in Silver. I think we can skip giving Silver.”

“But that’s so embarrassing!”

“What’s there to be embarrassed about? As long as we keep this kindness in our hearts, that’s enough.”

The Master and Xuexue stood by, whispering and muttering to each other, leaving Long Yi feeling anxious and unsettled.

“Miss, we have other matters to attend to and must be leaving now,” Long Yi mustered his courage to interrupt them. He dared not meet Big Bull’s gaze, fearing the Master’s wrath, and simply bowed to Xuexue to say goodbye.

“I’m so sorry, big brother, for not inviting you in for a cup of tea after reaching my home. I hope you don’t mind, and next time, I’ll definitely offer you a seat,” Xuexue said.

“Hehe…! No need, no need.”

Long Yi didn’t have the nerve! With the Master there, watching him like a hawk, he quickly boarded the carriage and, without waiting for Xuexue to respond, shouted at the carriage driver who worked for him, “Drive the carriage faster, you blind fool.”

The carriage driver was also one of his subordinates, utterly frustrated on the inside, thinking his boss was too unfair, always taking out his frustrations on them after being berated by the Master. But no matter what he thought, he dared not speak out and quickly cracked his whip on the horse’s back, shouting, “Giddy up…!”

The carriage departed hastily, kicking up a great cloud of dust on the road.

Xuexue watched as they disappeared into the distance before walking into the village with Big Bull.

A luxurious carriage couldn’t escape the watchful eyes of the busybodies at the village entrance.

No sooner had they entered the village than they encountered Old Granny Liu, who eagerly asked Xuexue, “Xuexue! That carriage just now looked pretty fancy, who was it? Old Granny Liu is so envious; I’ve never ridden in a carriage in my life.”

With some busybodies in the village who loved to gossip and make trouble, Xuexue simply said, “Old Granny, that was Shopkeeper Fan’s carriage, it came by the last time we had the housewarming party, and everyone in the village saw it, have you forgotten?”

“Really?”

Old Granny Liu thought about it and it seemed like there was such an occasion, but because it was too dark at the time, they hadn’t seen it clearly.

“Of course, there’s no point in lying about such a thing. You can ask around; the eyes of so many people in the village aren’t blind.”
