Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord Chapter 1381: Search

Xuexue’s imposing manner clearly shocked the Old Maid.

"Madam Situ, please don’t make it difficult for the maids. These are the orders of the Heavenly Lion, and we are just following commands."

So they claim to be following orders—does that an they can do whatever they want?

While the argunt was raging on, Celestial Master Zhang, along with the madam and the young ladies, hurried over.

Seeing the crowd gathered at the door of Xuexue’s resting room, he was also startled. After exchanging a glance with the madam, he quickly stepped forward: "What are you all doing here? Don’t you know Madam Situ is drunk and resting inside?"

"Heavenly Master, madam."

The servants standing at the door all bowed.

"Enough, enough. This Celestial Master asks you, what are you all doing here?"

"Madam’s jade hairpin is missing. We are searching the mansion for it."

"Search if you must, but why disturb the esteed guest here?"

The servants were silent; it was all under Nanny Fan’s orders.

This Nanny Fan was the madam’s personal maid and held a high position in the mansion. The servants generally dared not defy her for fear of retaliation.

Since they said nothing, Celestial Master Zhang beca angry and simply pushed through the crowd, stepping into the room to see what was happening.

Inside the room.

The Old Maid looked ferocious, ready to instruct the maids to pin down Xuexue and search her thoroughly.

Xuexue, being soone trained in martial arts, had heard everything outside clearly. When the maids tried to pin her down, she remained motionless.

So this is the Celestial Master’s Mansion’s way of hosting guests; soon, she’ll settle all accounts with them.

Celestial Master Zhang had just walked in when he saw five or six maids, ferocious like wolves, pressing down on the petite and delicate Situtu Xueer.

"What on earth are you doing?" Celestial Master Zhang couldn’t help but shout angrily. The mystery of the tiger hadn’t been uncovered yet, and he didn’t want to offend Situtu Xueer.

The Old Maid turned her head and exclaid, "Oh my heavens!"

Seeing that it was the Celestial Master and the madam, they had all co. She imdiately knelt before Celestial Master Zhang with a thud, knocking her head hard twice before speaking, "Report to the Celestial Master, the maids are searching the mansion for the madam’s missing jade hairpin."

"Nonsense! Madam Situ is our honored guest. How could she possibly steal sothing!"

"But...!"

Just when things were about to go her way, who knew they’d be disrupted by the Celestial Master? The Old Maid felt reluctant yet helpless.

Situtu Qinger, standing among the crowd, was also quite unwilling, but as a younger sister, it was inappropriate for her to expose matters publicly.

She gracefully approached, gently swaying her waist, her voice as soft as water: "Sister, have you sobered up?"

Looking at the hypocritical Situtu Qinger in front of her, Xuexue smiled lightly and brushed back her hair from her forehead: "Thanks to your care, younger sister, I’m well now."

"Sister, the madam’s jade hairpin is missing. Have you seen it?"

"Jade hairpin?" Xuexue looked quite perplexed, thought for a mont, then shook her head: "No, I haven’t."

"Sister, are you sure you haven’t?"

"Really, I haven’t."

"But, younger sister heard that sister tucked a jade hairpin not belonging to her into her bosom."

"Who is spreading such nonsense? Let them stand up and confront properly," Xuexue said, appearing very angry.

Situtu Qinger was delighted to see her like this, waiting for the mont when the jade hairpin would be found on her, to see what she would say then.

"Since sister is so innocent, why not let the servants search you?"

"No way, it’s a matter of dignity," Xuexue firmly shook her head.
