4.71% Rebirth of the Female Antagonist: XUANRONG / Chapter 9: Incompetent

บท 9: Incompetent

XuanRong did not say anything. She only smiled at Housekeeper Wang and turned her head to look at Zou mama.

"Zou mama, are your thoughts similar with Housekeeper Wang? Does Zou mama also think that This Lady is unfit to manage the entire manor?"

Housekeeper Wang secretly glared at Zou mama when XuanRong was not looking, signaling her to say 'Yes'.

Zou mama was unable to answer immediately. Her head was currently trying to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of offending XuanRong.

Unlike Housekeeper Wang who did not fear the tiger [1], Zou mama was thinking thoroughly. Her survival was based on her choice.

Which would benefit her more?

After half an incense stick of time [2], she raised her head and decided to swallow her fear.

"Da XiaoJie, this old servant thinks that Da XiaoJie should rest here in Lu Shan without minding a single thing inside the manor to avoid stressing your mind and body. Let this old servant and Housekeeper Wang manage everything and just enjoy your stay here."

After hearing Zou mama's words, Housekeeper Wang raised his head and arrogantly stared at XuanRong.

Even if XuanRong wanted to report everything that transpired in Lu Shan, she could only do it once she returns to the capital.

If he could block everything, not letting a single news to leak out of the manor, no matter what XuanRong say, she wouldn't be able to send news to the capital if she was staying in the suburbs.

If XuanRong wouldn't be able to return to ZhongYang.... then that would be much better for him. So, no matter what, he must not let XuanRong take over and control the manor.

XuanRong's eyes lazily stared at Zou mama who was lowering her head, refusing to look at her eyes. She was a little bit dissatisfied with Zou mama's stand. XuanRong was hoping that Zou mama would use her head and choose the best option. Too bad, Zou mama disappointed her.

Her eyes slowly moved towards Housekeeper Wang who acted like a clown in front of her eyes. When she saw how proud and haughty he was, XuanRong almost laughed out loudly.

'Since this old goat is very eager to destroy his face, This Lady is feeling very generous and is willing to help him. You don't like face [3]? Then, This Lady will not give you face.'

XuanRong leaned on the chair and pretended to listen to Housekeeper Wang's nonsensical words.

After wasting two incense sticks of time, Housekeeper Wang was already panting hard due to speaking nonstop. The servants who were standing at the center hall started glaring at him. They had been standing for hours already and now that XuanRong came, Housekeeper Wang started speaking, not letting XuanRong say anything. The servants resentfully cursed Housekeeper Wang. If XuanRong wouldn't dismiss them, the servants were not allowed to leave, move or even sit on the ground.

After another cup of tea, XuanRong was starting to get bored of Housekeeper Wang's antics.

"Is Housekeeper Wang done speaking?"

XuanRong, who was lazily reclining on the chair slowly straightened her back and sat upright. She looked very beautiful even though she was dressed in plain clothes, making the servants gape in awe.

XuanRong had been staying in Lu Shan for almost a week and the servants had seen her acting like a shrew in front of them, making the servants loath her to the core. But ever since her temperament changed, from being crude to being refined, her beautiful face that was ignored due to her coarse personality, was starting to stand out.

"Since both Housekeeper Wang and Zou mama insist that This Lady should not trouble myself in handling matters inside the manor, then, This Lady will definitely listen to both of you. It's just that... This Lady is not sure if This Lady can really stay here in Lu Shan without worries."

XuanRong sighed and shook her head, as if she was currently experiencing injustice.

"Do not worry Da XiaoJie, this old servant will definitely satisfy you and won't let you experience hardship."

Housekeeper Wang's words were full of assurance, but his mocking eyes were staring at her, making XuanRong amused and entertained.

XuanRong nodded as if she was deeply moved by Housekeeper Wang's words.

"Then, This Lady will ask Housekeeper Wang… Is Housekeeper Wang the one who has been managing the entire manor since This Lady arrived here in Lu Shan?"

Housekeeper Wang nodded and proudly said, "This old servant is indeed the one who is currently managing the manor together with Zou mama. This old servant has been the one managing the entire manor ever since the Second Madam ordered this old servant to oversee things in Lu Shan, so, Da XiaoJie should not worry and let this old servant serve Da XiaoJie with utmost care."

XuanRong snickered after hearing housekeeper Wang's words. The old man was very shameless, indeed.

"Oh? You are the one who is currently managing the manor, yet you are oblivious to the servants' atrocious behavior towards This Lady? Heeeh... were the servants treating Housekeeper Wang's words as... F-A-R-T-S?"

Housekeeper Wang's smile froze, his face turned red and then white alternately after hearing XuanRong's mocking words.

He opened his mouth to speak but XuanRong did not give him the chance to say anything.

"You said that This Lady should let you and Zou mama manage the manor and enjoy my stay here, but This Lady has been staying in Lu Shan for almost a week already and all This Lady experienced in this past few days were hardship and suffering.

This Lady is the dignified Eldest Daughter of the First Wife but This Lady has been humiliated by the manor's servants ever since This Lady arrived in the manor.

This Lady's meals can't even compare to that of the commoner's food. The servants' clothes are even more luxurious that This Lady's dress. This Lady arrived here in Lu Shan without bringing plenty of clothes, thinking that everything will be provided to This Lady but... ayeee..." XuanRong sighed. "Under your management, the servants are trying to flaunt their 'power' and bully This Lady. They don't even treat This Lady as their master and even tried to snob This Lady a couple of times. Servants like them should be whipped to death but in the past few days, you were acting like nothing was wrong and everything was normal. This Lady is very dissatisfied with your management and the servants' disloyalty. Is this how you serve This Lady with utmost care? By bullying me?"

The servants, who were standing at the center hall, paled after hearing XuanRong's dissatisfaction towards their bullying. If XuanRong decided to punish them, they could not run away and could only accept the punishment.

"Housekeeper Wang... tell me, are you blind or are you incompetent?"
