Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 112 - Filthy
Chapter 112 -112 Filthy
“What should we do, then? Take him home?”
“No, people are quick to judge.”
Madam Xie, without a second thought, flatly refused. This fool was stubborn beyond hope, constantly addressing her daughter as his wife. Given his demeanor, not even ten bulls could make him alter his words. Bringing him home would surely tarnish her daughter’s reputation.
Just then, not far ahead, a few workers from the Great Harmony Restaurant were storming over with great momentum.
“Mother, look.” Xuexue, with sharp eyes, grabbed Madam Xie, stopping her from walking any further. Otherwise, they would inevitably collide with them. She also pointed it out to her.
“What should we do now?” Upon seeing this, Madam Xie also panicked.
Glancing around, just by chance, there was a Ready-made Clothes Shop not far away. Xuexue quickly pulled the fool inside and didn’t forget to look back as they walked. “Mother, you guys wait here for a moment.”
“Ah?”
Madam Xie, left behind, was completely baffled but didn’t dare to call out loudly to Xuexue for fear of drawing the workers over. She could only stand there with Chuner, hearts in their throats, anxiously waiting.
“Wife, where are we going?” The fool was quite delighted, as Xuexue was finally talking to him, even holding his hand.
“To buy you new clothes,” Xuexue said in exasperation.
This fool, in his tattered clothes with long hair full of bloodstains and in complete disarray, would be recognizable by anyone as a simpleton, even without his foolish demeanor. Xuexue thought that by changing his clothes and sprucing him up a bit, they might just get by unnoticed.
“Wife, you are so good to me, hehe…!” The fool, upon hearing this, grinned from ear to ear, his face beaming with happiness.
Xuexue pursed her lips, saying nothing. She thought to herself that if it weren’t for him saving Chuner, she wouldn’t bother with him at all.
“Shopkeeper, find a set of clothes for him to wear.” As soon as they entered, Xuexue said bluntly.
“Eh! Okay, okay.” The shopkeeper, a skinny man, eager to make a sale, promptly came forward to serve them. “Sir, what price range are you looking at for the clothes? The better the fabric, the more expensive it is, and the worse…”
“Cheap, the cheapest kind,” Xuexue interrupted him impatiently. She was merely acquainted with this fool by face; it was already generous enough to offer him clothes. Why spend more? Really.
“Eh eh! Alright then!”
Complying, the shopkeeper quickly went inside and came back with a set of coarse clothes. “Sir, this is the cheapest outfit, only costs twenty copper coins.”
“Okay, Shopkeeper, find a place for him to change, and also tidy up his hair a bit.”
“Ah?” The shopkeeper paused for a moment. They didn’t offer that kind of service at their store.
“I’ll give you five more copper coins,” Xuexue bit her lip and said.
“Alright then!” Hearing the extra money, the shopkeeper agreed, then turned to lead the fool to the back room. “Big brother, come this way to change your clothes.”
“No, I don’t want to be separated from my wife.” The fool stubbornly refused to move, gripping the wall tightly with both hands.
“Sir, this…” With such a strong reaction from the fool, the shopkeeper was also troubled, looking helplessly at Xuexue.
“Look at you, all dirty. If you don’t change into clean clothes, I won’t like you anymore,” Xuexue had to pretend to be angry.
The fool looked down at his clothes, which were indeed filthy and ragged at the hem, and quickly said, “I’ll change, I’ll change. Wife, please don’t dislike me.”
“Go ahead,” Xuexue gave a forced smile.
“Oh.”

The fool then followed the shopkeeper to change his clothes and soon came out tidied up.
