Chapter 71 - "Is there anything else on your mind other than the $50 million?" (1)
Having said that, she reached her hand out to Aunt Hu and said, “Okay, why don’t you hand the apron over to me. I am not very good at housework. You may have to show me the ropes.”
That was when Aunt Hu arrogantly shoved the apron at Xu WanZhi and said, “That’s more like it.”
Xu WanZhi was scrubbing the plates in the kitchen and Aunt Hu, looking like a general who had just won the battle, was yakking on her cellphone and making sure that Xu WanZhi could hear her. “Yeah, of course I don’t need to do any work. With my status at the Mu’s, even the two young masters need to pay me some respect. You should be here to see this, ZhenYu brought home his little seductress today and I had to teach her a lesson. She’s docilely doing dishes right now. Anyone who wants to marry into the Mu’s might go through me first.”
Xu WanZhi smiled and didn’t say anything. She continued to scrub the plates.
After a while, Mu ZhenYu’s aunt Mu Ling brought her plate back into the kitchen when she finished eating her fruits and happened to see Xu WanZhi doing dishes and Aunt Hu sitting there yakking into her cellphone and generally enjoying herself. “So have you purchased that financial management product for me yet? Aiya, okay, let me give you my ID number one more time. Don’t lose it again…”
Mu Ling walked over to the sink, poked Xu WanZhi, and said, “Why are you doing dishes? Put them down already. We have servants at home.”
Xu WanZhi waved her hand and said, “It’s fine. Aunt Hu is not young anymore. We can’t let her do the work. Plus, this apron is too skinny. I’m not even sure she will be able to bend over with it on.”
Having said that, she perked up her ears and memorized Aunt Hu’s 18-digit ID number.
Getting what Xu WanZhi was saying, Mu Ling chuckled out loudly. “All the delicacies, bird’s nest, shark fins, she had been bringing them home with her every day. Always picking the most expensive ones. Of course she is gaining weight. And she didn’t seem to be concerned about her cholesterol, blood sugar, or blood pressure.” Having said that, she casted a glance over at Aunt Hu and said, “I am going to let her go one of these days.”
After she was done rolling her eyes, she looked back over at Xu WanZhi. “Say, WanZhi, I saw that poster that you’ve made for Company B. You were so gorgeous. Just the other day I was talking to ZhenYu’s first aunt. You are so petite but you look so amazing in the camera. Especially that watch, it was perfect for you.”
There was subtext in Mu Ling’s words and Xu WanZhi did not miss them. Brand B’s watched has been sold out a long time ago. Plus, she was so popular lately that Brand B had decided to go adopt hunger marketing for a little while. As power as the Mu’s were in this area, they still have a difficult time getting their hands on one.
Mu Ling was subtly asking Xu WanZhi for one.
Xu WanZhi merely thanked her profusely for her compliments before she changed the subject to gossips in the entertainment circle that someone her age would care about the most.
Before long, Xu WanZhi had already finished most of the dishes. Even Mu Ling couldn't help but was a little bit surprised. She picked up a plate and took a close look at it. “How are you able to this so fast? And so clean too…”
Xu WanZhi told her the truth. “I have always lived by myself and had to do all the housework myself. I’m used to it.”
“Aye, you are someone who lives an actual life,” said Mu Ling with a sigh. “I’m a blunt person. Look at that Miss Liang that the old madam likes so much. Her family was about to go bankrupt but the servants were still working there and she was already crying and saying that her life couldn’t go on. Truthfully, she’s not a good choice to get married to and have kids with. I have no idea what was going through the old madam’s head.”
