Chapter 532: The White Lotus Joins the Fray (2)_1
Xiao Linshuang, however, hadn’t thought that much into it. She merely felt that these two older sisters were speaking up for her. Although she felt somewhat undeserving, she was nonetheless delighted to have someone helping her. She straightened her back and her face also revealed a smug smile, just like Xia Zheng’s.
"Exactly. Don’t believe it? Weren’t you just fawning over my two sisters—ahem, maids? Why are you silent now? Keep talking. Oh right, Xia He, bring me those copper coins. The young lady here is craving sweets, and I only have silver notes on me—I really don’t have any copper coins to buy sweets with."
Xia He couldn’t help but laugh inwardly. She respectfully bent down and, with hands outstretched, presented the four copper coins to Xiao Linshuang, making sure to add, "Please accept these, Young Lady."
Watching the three of them coordinate so well, Jin Lingling and Meng Chunyan’s faces alternated between red and white. The person they had desperately toiled to ingratiated themselves with was merely a maid, whereas the one they’d looked down upon and underestimated turned out to be a bona fide Young Lady. How could this be? How!?
"It’s impossible! Stop putting on this charade to fool us!" Meng Chunyan, red-faced with disbelief, pointed at the little maid and then asked Jin Lingling, "Lingling, you must say something. Didn’t you say she was just a little village girl’s sister? How could she, how could she have two such fine, fine maids?"
Indeed, they were far too fine, even better than her own maids. Better dressed, better adorned, with a better presence, and even their looks were much superior.
Jin Lingling was flabbergasted at this moment. If she hadn’t failed to see Lin Yuan there earlier, she wouldn’t have thought to belittle this little maid. She was dying with regret, so much that she felt her intestines turning blue!
Lin Yuan was the boss of Fuman Building. Would it be difficult for her to find two decent maids for her sister? Difficult? Not at all!
Of course not!
