Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 36 - Little Girl
Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Little Girl
The little girl’s sharp laughter still rang out, “Ah hehehe… Ah hehe… .”
Xuexue knew that this little ghost was deliberately trying to scare her.
Old Money Mo and several servants, as if they couldn’t hear a thing, continued to walk leisurely, their figures quickly disappearing around the corner.
The little girl’s laughter also slowly faded away.
“Sister, we’ve been out for a long time, let’s go home. Mother doesn’t know we’re out, she’ll be anxious if she can’t find us.”
Chuner finally snapped out of her panic. Just now, her sister had been talking nonsense, saying she saw Old Money Mo with many children on his back, which nearly scared her to death. She thought her sister might be delirious from the fever due to the cold water while fetching river snails, but fortunately, it was just a false alarm.
...
“…”
“Sister, what’s wrong with you?”
After waiting for a while with no response from Xuexue, Chuner struggled out of her embrace and lifted her dirty little face to ask with concern.
Xuexue’s face was deathly pale, her eyes wide open, staring intensely in the direction of the village….
What exactly had gone wrong? In her past life, she hadn’t been able to see any of these things. Could it be that with her rebirth, some things had also changed? Xuexue’s mind was engulfed in waves of shock and surprise, unable to hear Chuner speaking.
“Sister, sister, let’s go back,” Chuner pleaded.
Seeing her sister’s bloodless face, Chuner was very worried. Her little hands clutched her sister’s sleeve tightly, shaking it vigorously.
“Eh!”
Not wanting to scare Chuner, Xuexue, who had come back to her senses, tried to suppress the shock in her heart, responded, and bent down to pack up their things. Carrying Xiao Mu’s little bucket in one hand and pulling Chuner with the other, they started walking back toward the village.

“Xuexue, where did you two sisters go?”
As expected, just as they reached the Mo family’s main entrance, Madam Xie rushed out anxiously.
“Mother, Chuner and I went to fetch river snails. Look, there are clams too.” Xuexue let go of Chuner and held the little bucket up to Madam Xie, hoping to show her that today’s catch wasn’t bad.
But Madam Xie didn’t even look, instead focusing on Xuexue’s pair of little feet, red from the cold, speaking with a tone full of distress, “You silly girl, you really don’t have any sense, it’s so cold and you didn’t even wear shoes to fetch those worthless river snails.”
“Mother, I wore shoes, I just forgot to put them back on when we were coming back.” Xuexue glanced back and saw Chuner holding her shoes.
“Oh my, you little dirty cat.”
Madam Xie turned her head back and saw Chuner’s little face covered in filthy mud. She quickly stepped forward, grabbed her, and headed to the kitchen to help clean the mud off her face.
Xuexue also carried the little bucket to the kitchen, cleaning the snails and clams inside. Then, she replaced the water to keep them in.
By this time, Madam Xie had already cleaned Chuner up.
“Xuexue, I’m not scolding you, but why do you bring these things back? Nobody in the house likes to eat them, and they waste firewood,” Madam Xie said, looking at the bucket of snails with a pained expression.
“It’s not for us to eat, I need them.” Xuexue had done the math; in three days, it would be market day, and she planned to sell them to earn some Copper Coins.
Madam Xie looked at her with puzzled eyes, “These things are everywhere, what good are they?”
“I won’t tell you for now, you’ll see,” Xuexue said with a proud smile on her face.
“You little rascal.”
Madam Xie shook her head. Since Xuexue had come around from the fever, she had become much more assertive, so Madam Xie said no more.
