What. The. Hell?
While this might be the truth, Cheng
Xiao Xiao still felt unjust. The words came only from An Hung niang, but judging from the looks of the
other da niang and aunties, they all
had the same idea!
It was after a long while before Cheng
Xiao Xiao finally calmed down and said to them, “Fellow da niang and aunties. Maybe we should be upfront about how things
will be handled. As each family might have different thoughts, I will treat
each case differently. Why don’t we do this? Why don’t you all go home and discuss
with your family members how long will your kids be staying at the Cheng’s.
Once we have that settled, we will provide each of you different benefits!
“Well….”
The few village women exchanged their looks.
They knew full well that what Cheng Xiao Xiao said was the truth. Except for An
Hung niang, who straight up said,
“Why in the next couple of days? Why can’t we get it all settled right now? You
want me to feed her for two more days? Seriously!”
“An da
niang, if you don’t like this arrangement, feel free to go talk to the
patriarch!”
After saying that, Cheng Xiao Xiao
ignored her and went back into the field to pick her vegetables.
“You!!” An Hung niang was so angry that her face was beet red and said to the ones
next to her, “Shi di niang, look at
that attitude of hers! That’s no way to treat one’s elders! This is
outrageous!”
“Alright, alright, An Hung niang, why don’t you stop shouting for
the time being and follow Xiao Xiao’s arrangement. Let’s go home first today!”
“Hrm! I should never have came. Now I am
even more pissed that I was before!”
The village women took their daughters
and left.
After dinner she brought this up to her
parents briefly before entering into the dimension.
After entering the dimension, Cheng Xiao
Xiao did not resume the position and start cultivating right away. Since she
was already a martial apprentice, she could spare a few moments.
“Young mistress, you are in a foul mood
eh?”
Smiling, little Yuteng flew down from
the crystal fruit tree and sat on her shoulder.
Cheng Xiao Xiao glanced at her quickly
and said, “You saw everything that happened today! How can I be in a good
mood!”
“Hehe, it’s your fault for being too
nice. Someone like An Hung niang, you
should just kick her out straight away. Why did you bother to engage with her?”
“Kick her out! She will shout till your
ears fall off!” Cheng Xiao Xiao shook her head, “What we need to do now is
figure out what to do with these ‘diners’ under the false pretense as ‘maids’!”
“Young mistress. That’s your business, I
am not sure what to do with them. If you ask me, it’s simple. Everybody will
come here everyday and help out with household chores and be fed till they turn
14. Once they turn 14, they can go home if they so choose. We will take in the
loyal ones who want to stay. And that will be that!”
“Yeah, but then we will definitely be
the morons!”
“Yeah, but so what? It’s not like we
can’t afford to feed them. Besides, it will give you a good opportunity to learn
about them. It’s better than taking them all in at once then finding out that
only a handful of them are reliable. Wouldn’t that be worse?”
“Okay, I guess you made a good point
there!”
“Hehe, young mistress. You really should
cultivate. It take you three months to go from the preparatory stage to become
a martial apprentice. Even though that’s like a genius in the eyes of a
commoner. But it’s laughable to just be a martial apprentice at your age!”
