Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 116 - Lady

Chapter 116: Chapter 116 Lady

“This….” Madam Xie, after all a sincerely honest person, stuttered as she told her first lie.

Fortunately, just at this crucial moment, Xuexue came back with a big bag of things.

“Wife, wife, you’re back.” The fool excitedly stood up, his face beaming with a radiant smile as he looked at Xuexue.

“Yes, I’m back.”

Xuexue responded and stuffed a big bag of meat into the basket. When she bought the meat, she had specifically asked the Pork Seller to use oil paper to wrap the pork in several layers, to prevent those nosy villagers from seeing and then broadcasting that they had meat to eat despite their separation.

The few women on the cart were utterly dumbstruck by the fool’s words.

“Madam Xie, what did he call Xuexue?” The women couldn’t help but widen their eyes, disbelief written all over their faces.

“He…he…he is Xuexue’s fiancé,” Madam Xie said, swallowing hard and struggling to speak.

“Xuexue’s fiancé? When did Xuexue get engaged? How come we’ve never heard of it?” The women looked at each other, their faces filled with surprise.

“What’s so strange? I’m betrothed in a child engagement,” Xuexue calmly claimed.

“Oh! No wonder we haven’t heard about it, it was a child engagement?” the women nodded in understanding.

At first, the woman who was looking for a son-in-law also wisely fell silent.

“Oh my! I’m exhausted.” Lady Li also came back carrying a big load and, as soon as she sat on the cart, she used her sizeable backside to try and shift and claim more space to put her stuff, as she was the last one to board and the earlier passengers had already filled up all the available space.

“Wife, this fat woman is harassing me.” Seated next to her just happened to be the fool, who, growing impatient from being squeezed by Lady Li’s vast backside, simply said loudly to Xuexue.

“Pfft!”

Laughter suddenly erupted inside the cart.

Xuexue covered her mouth and snickered; though the fool was simple-minded, his words were blunt and hit the mark.

Two women who didn’t ever get along well with Lady Li now laughed boisterously without any restraint, “Ahahaha…! Lady Li, you’re no spring chicken. How come you still can’t restrain yourself around a handsome young man?”

As Lady Li was contentedly claiming her space, she initially didn’t understand why everyone was laughing, until the two women called her out by name.

“Bah! I wouldn’t fancy you even if you were the last man on earth,” Lady Li shouted, frustrated and embarrassed. She stood up, hands on her hips, and started cursing the fool fiercely.

“Wife, why is this fat woman so fierce?” the fool blurted out another remark, not bothering to lower his voice at all.

The laughter in the cart grew louder.

“Ignore her,” Xuexue pulled him to sit down, and said with biting sarcasm, “She’s just a crazy woman.”

“Hey! Xuexue, turns out this bumpkin is with you?”

“So what if he is?”

“Just now, did you purposely teach him to frame me for harassing him?” Lady Li, hands on hips, glared at Xuexue, looking ready to fight.

“What frame? Everyone can see with their own eyes, it’s not just me who saw it.” Then, Xuexue turned to ask a few women, “Ladies, am I right or what?”

“Right, right, don’t blame Xuexue. We all saw clearly. It was you continuously using your big butt, relentlessly bumping into Xuexue’s fiancé, ahahaha…”

“You’re talking nonsense!” Lady Li became even more infuriated, standing and stomping on the cart.

Just then, the cart suddenly started moving, and it jolted a few times. As Lady Li furiously cursed, she lost her balance and ended up sprawling on top of the fool.
