Chapter 651 Asking the Servant for Information
"It's okay. It will be faster if I help you two clean up. I've been influenced by Siqi and I've eaten a lot. It's not comfortable to sit down. I might as well help clean up and exercise to digest it."
"Well, Brother Qi eats with such delicious taste. I am very happy just watching him eat. The way he eats makes me, the cook, feel very proud."
"Yeah, if we eat with Brother Qi for a while, the three of us will definitely gain a few pounds."
"Ah, then I don't dare let him come to the villa to eat every day. It's already difficult for us girls to lose weight. If I eat with him, won't my weight go up?"
After hearing Wu You's words, Manman and Cheng Yunchuan couldn't help but laugh.
"Don't worry, your brother Qi doesn't have that much time to come here for a free meal."
"Then I'm really relieved. With Brother Chuan's help, it will be much faster than the two of us. Leave the rest to us. Brother Chuan, go and take a rest."
"There's a dishwasher in the kitchen, don't use it. You girls are prone to hurting your hands if you always wash dishes yourself, don't you know?"
"Don't worry, Brother Chuan, we will use it every time and won't wash it ourselves."
Seeing Wu You say this, Cheng Yunchuan felt relieved and went upstairs to take a nap.
The two-day weekend at the villa passed in a flash, and the speech arranged by Cheng Yunchuan's secretary was sent to Cheng Yunchuan's email on Saturday night.
Cheng Yunchuan read it twice before going to bed and found time to read it several more times throughout the day on Sunday. He could remember everything he was going to say on stage without having to memorize it deliberately.
When he got up on Monday, Cheng Yunchuan was very energetic after resting at home for two days. However, working for a long time without rest would not be cured by just two days of rest. So even though Cheng Yunchuan felt that he was in good spirits, his dark circles were only slightly lighter than before.
Wu You and Manman knew that Cheng Yunchuan's company had an important event to hold today, so they got ready early in the morning to prepare breakfast for Cheng Yunchuan.
"Brother Chuan looks a lot more energetic, but his condition has not yet reached his previous heyday. However, he is still as handsome as before, so don't worry."
"Don't worry. I'm not going out to film or do movies anymore. My image is not that important to me. I just need to stay clean and tidy."
"Yeah, is everything ready at Brother Chuan's company?"
"Well, it's all done. I'll go to the company site later to check if there are any major problems. We can just wait until the time is up."
"hope everything is fine."
"Of course he will. This is the first time that Chuan Ge has appeared in front of the media since his last clarification. When your fans see the news about you, the internet will be abuzz again."
"I haven't been active for such a long time that my fans would have probably deserted me. Also, this appearance is about the company, so my fans probably won't understand it, let alone be interested in it."
"No, Brother Chuan, be more confident. With your face in front of you, your fans won't pay attention to what you say. They probably just look at your face."
"Okay, stop teasing Brother Chuan. Is breakfast ready? If it is, serve it to Brother Chuan quickly so as not to delay his going to work."
"It's ready. I won't say anything more. I'll go to the kitchen and bring breakfast to Brother Chuan."
Manman and Wu You accompanied Cheng Yunchuan to finish breakfast and then watched him go to work. Only Wu You and her were left in the Cheng family villa.
"Let's go watch Brother Chuan's company press conference later, since we have nothing to do at home. I've always heard Brother Chuan and Brother Qi say that the company is developing very well, but we don't know exactly how it is going. Anyway, let's go watch it, okay?"
"Of course, I think it starts at nine o'clock, right? I'll look for it first and then get ready when the time comes."
"Well, I'll clean up quickly, Denghui, and prepare some fruits and snacks. The two of us will not look at or eat when the time comes."
Several people on Cheng Yunchuan's side were preparing for the company's press conference. Over at the Jiang family's old house, Jiang Mubai was tired after lying in bed for a whole morning. After going downstairs to eat, she didn't want to go upstairs to rest. If she continued to lie down like this for a whole day, Jiang Mubai felt that her bones would be sore.
So after lunch she didn't go upstairs but went to rest on the sofa in the hall. Jiang Mubai was alone at lunch today. It was normal that Jiang Ping and Jiang An had gone to the company and didn't come back, but even Jiang Jinglan didn't come downstairs to eat, which made Jiang Mubai curious.
"Jiang Jinglan came to my room to visit me at around nine in the morning. How come he left in just a moment?"
Just then, a servant from the old house came to bring Jiang Mubai some fruit, so Jiang Mubai stopped him and asked, "Is Sister Jinglan not at home? Why didn't I see her come downstairs to eat at noon?"
"The young lady is at home. The housekeeper went to call her, but she had breakfast late and was not hungry, so she did not come down to eat."
"Okay, so that's how it is. I thought Sister Jinglan went out this morning, so she didn't come down to eat with me."
"If the Second Miss has nothing else to do, I'll go down and take care of myself first."
"Wait, there's one more thing I want to ask you. I remember you were helping out in the kitchen, right?"
"Yes, why did the Second Miss suddenly ask about this?"
"Nothing, I'm just curious. The breakfast served in the kitchen today is a little different from before. Did we get a new chef in our old house?"
"No, the people working in the kitchen have always been the same people. The servants working in the old house are generally not easily replaced. The young ladies and the masters and mistresses are used to being served by people like us. If we replace them, they will not be able to adapt, so they generally will not drive them away."
"Ok."
"Miss, do you think the breakfasts prepared in the kitchen are inappropriate? Tell me so I can go back and ask them to pay attention to it."
Jiang Mubai didn't think there was anything wrong with the breakfast. She just remembered that the other person worked in the kitchen and used the excuse to ask about things in the kitchen. She didn't really think the breakfast was bad.
But the words have been spoken, Jiang Mubai has to find an excuse to make the matter go away.
"The juice that the kitchen sent this morning didn't seem very fresh. Did it take a long time to squeeze instead of freshly squeezed?"
"That's impossible. I remember it very clearly. It was squeezed fresh by the person in charge of your breakfast. At that time, Chu Xin was helping to plate your breakfast in the kitchen. When the person in charge of your breakfast saw someone helping, he immediately went to squeeze juice for you. Once the juice was ready, he brought it to the restaurant with your breakfast."
"Okay, maybe I ate too much or it's just my imagination. Why would Chu Xin go to the kitchen to help? This doesn't seem to be her job, right?"
"I don't know either. I heard from others that Chu Xin wanted to experience our work or something like that. It was said that she wanted to work in the kitchen after the Second Miss no longer needed her."
"Why would she have such an idea? Does she think working in the kitchen is easy?
"Maybe. Working in your old house is really good. The salary is high, the food is good, and the work is easy. No wonder Chu Xin wants to stay in the old house."
"Okay, there's nothing for you to do here, go down and get busy first."
