Chapter Twenty: Winning People's Hearts

  "Stop arguing, it's all your own fault." Auntie crossed her arms over her chest, a perfect image of a strict housekeeper. "Eating from the same pot, yet fighting like mad dogs in the den."

  As for what the aunt said, the two of them had no way to refute it. After all, Aunt was in charge of the household and her words were reasonable to some extent. The two simply glared at each other for a moment before turning their heads away.

  "Wait a bit, I'll take care of you two later." The housekeeper aunt pointed at the two people standing in front of her. "There's something important to announce today," she then said to Hanaoki Kasumi who was standing aside watching, "Kasumi, come here."

  "Yes." Huamu Qing heard Auntie speaking to her and hastily grabbed the basket in her hand, then walked over.

  As she passed by Zhang Yu Xin's side, she gave a glance at the woman in front of her. The woman had a fair complexion, light-colored eyebrows, a straight and slender nose bridge, and pale red lips. She was dressed in a white coat with a rural style, looking refreshing without any makeup, and her long hair was as dense as seaweed, but it couldn't hide her pure and charming aura.

  A woman's intuition told Zhang Yuxin that the arrival of this beauty would affect her identity and status as a beautiful female servant in the master's house. No, she absolutely wouldn't allow such a thing to happen, she had to think of a way to stop this situation.

  At this time, Auntie's housekeeper's loud voice interrupted Zhang Yu Xin's train of thought, "This is Mu Qing, from today on she will be working with us."

  Upon hearing what the housekeeper said, some people present were welcoming while others were enraged.

  Zhang Yuxin looked at the delighted person with a jealous expression, while Zhang Jianhui and Zeng Ling exclaimed in unison, "Mu Qing?"

  Hanaki's standard smile, slightly bowing to the people in the room, "Hello!"

  The housekeeper began introducing the members one by one to Huamu Qing, "This is Zhang Jianhui."

  "Mù Qíng, you can call me Huì Gēgē. We've met before, do you remember?" Zhāng Jiàn Huì flashed a meaningful smile at Huā Mù Qíng.

  "Remember, Brother Hui." Hanaki replied obediently.

  Suddenly, Zhang Jianhui looked at Hua Muqing with a mixture of pain and happiness on his face. The people present looked at him with disdainful eyes.

  "What's wrong with you, Zhang Jianhui?" Auntie Guan said disdainfully.

  "Muaki's voice is too pleasant." Zhang Jianhui said the reason, Hana Muaki turned her head and held back the smile that was about to spill out of the corner of her mouth.

  The housekeeper pushed Zhang Jianhui aside and began introducing Zeng Ling, "Mu Qing, this is..."

  Before she could finish speaking, the housekeeper was startled by Zeng Ling's actions. She looked at the culprit in surprise and saw that Zeng Ling had started toying with her hair, making it into a small point. "Hello, my name is Zeng Ling." With a slight bow, "You can call me Sister Ling." As she spoke, she leaned in close to Hua Muqing, her face filled with admiration.

  The housekeeper, who had just come to her senses, pushed away the approaching head of Cai Lingyue and directly pointed at Hua Muqing, saying "That one over there is Zhang Yuxin."

  "Hello," Huamu nodded and turned around, giving Zhang Yuxin a slight smile.

  Zhang Yuxin didn't give Huamu Qing a good face in public, but instead heavily put down the wooden bucket with clothes in her hand, then swung her long hair with a showy gesture, stared at Huamu Qing, turned around and remained silent.

  The housekeeper clutched her waist and said, "Let Huamu Qing and Zeng Ling share a room."

  "Ah!" Zhang Jianhui looked at Huamu Qing with disappointment, what a pity.

  "What a great welfare!" Habitually touching the hair on her forehead, Zeng Ling raised her hands high and cheered, "Auntie, then I'll take Mu Qing to the room to put away things!"

  Bending down to pass through the path blocked by Housekeeper Auntie, Zeng Ling pulled Huamu Qing's hand, "Muqing younger sister, this way please."

  Zeng Ling took the bag from Huamu Qing's hand and gave a apologetic smile to Housekeeper Aunt.

  "This is a little token of our appreciation, please accept it!" The housekeeper aunt pretended to be nonchalant and nodded indifferently, indicating that they could leave.

  Dai Zengling and Huamu Qing got along harmoniously, and walked happily to their own room. Zhang Yuxin looked at the backs of the two people, her disdainful eyes revealing her jealousy, "Still manipulating people's hearts, hypocritical."

  "If you don't like it, then don't have it." The housekeeper aunt was fanning the flames on the side, regardless of her purpose, after all, that was someone's carefully prepared dish. After finishing speaking, she raised her foot and was eager to try to open it and see what was inside.

  Zeng Ling took Huamu Qing to a cozy and elegantly decorated bedroom in a secluded area, where she finally had her own room, and only then did Huamu Qing's heart feel truly at ease.

  "Please come in, Mu Qing." Zeng Ling bowed and gestured with her left hand, displaying a standard service attitude.

  Following Zeng Ling into her own room for the next few months, Huamu Qing began to look around the room in large numbers, TV, air conditioner, and a double bed, only the one that didn't exist was the bathroom, which was also difficult for her. However, it's okay, although the sparrow is small, it has all five internal organs.

  Silently, Zeng Ling followed Huamu Qing from behind. Suddenly, Huamu Qing turned around and the two almost faced each other at zero distance. Huamu Qing was frightened and took a step back, leaning against the wall, while Zeng Ling had a light smile on her face, using her left hand to press against the wall, trapping Huamu Qing.

  "Ling sister..." Although the person was slightly taller and pulled back a bit, Huamu Qing still felt somewhat uncomfortable.

  "This will be your bedroom from now on."

  "Thank you, Ling Jie." Hanaki Haruka said with a shy smile and heartfelt gratitude.

  "Wait a bit and I'll take you to meet our lady of the house." With her signature gesture, she played with the hair on her forehead, wearing an mischievous grin.

  "Ah." Despite holding back her laughter, Hanaki Haruka still politely nodded.

  Zeng Ling also immediately released the hand that was blocking her in front of her, stepped back, and the two were just about to walk out one after the other.

  At this time, Hanaki Haruka's mobile phone rang coincidentally when the two were about to go out. Hanaki Haruka looked at Ling Jie with embarrassment and then took her mobile phone to block Ling Jie's inquiring gaze.

  She carefully picked up the phone and took a look, Huamu Qing was startled, and quickly looked back at the person behind her, making sure that Ling Jie couldn't see her, she pressed the hang-up button, "Yixia, just arrived, not convenient to talk, hung up."

  "Is that your boyfriend?" Standing behind her, Zeng Ling, although she could hear it was a man's voice, wasn't sure of his age. With a full dose of curiosity for gossip, she couldn't help but ask out loud.

  Hua Muqing, who was deep in thought about what to do next, was startled by Zeng Ling's words and turned around, lightly patting Zeng Ling's shoulder.

  Zeng Ling covered her frightened heart and bruised shoulder, never expecting her question to provoke such a huge reaction from Hua Mu Qing. Was there some secret she shouldn't know hidden within?

  Women's innate curiosity and gossip mentality made Zeng Ling pay great attention to Huamu Qing.
