After washing up, Jiang Yining went out and saw the aunt cleaning the living room.
Aunt Wang stopped what she was doing when she saw Jiang Yining. "Good morning, Mrs. He. My last name is Wang."
"Mr. He called the housekeeping service, and they arranged for me to come over and help with making lunch and cleaning."
Seeing that Aunt Wang was under fifty and quite polite, Jiang Yining curved her lips and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Someone rang the doorbell. Aunt Wang was about to open the door, but Jiang Yining walked over first and said, "Aunt Wang, you go ahead and do your thing. I'll go open the door."
It was a delivery man, probably something He Chi bought online.
Jiang Yining carried the bag to the kitchen. As soon as she put it down, she received a message from He Chi: [I was in a hurry to go to work this morning and forgot to feed He Xiaohui. The cat food is in the cabinet at the entrance.]
He Chi: [First row of drawers on the left.]
Jiang Yining replied: [I understand.]
Seeing the reply, He Chi knew that Jiang Yining had already gotten up. He raised his lip and while the people below were giving reports, he sent another message to Jiang Yining.
He Chi: [I have steamed buns in the pot. I called the housekeeping service, and they will come and make lunch for me, so I don't have to do it myself.]
Soon, he received a reply.
Jiang Yining: [Okay.]
He Chi clicked his tongue. This reply was so distant. Was she angry that he kissed her last night?
He was indeed a little bit obsessed with sex last night. Would Jiang Yining think that he was too casual?
But it shouldn't be that serious. He and Jiang Yining are legally married after all, so isn't it normal for them to kiss? And before that, he had asked Jiang Yining for her opinion.
She didn't refuse.
"Mr. He?"
He Chi didn't respond at all, and the employees who had finished their reports were extremely nervous.
The assistant called out helpfully, "Mr. He?"
He Chi said perfunctorily, "Very good."
He glanced down at his watch and frowned. "Next, pick the important ones and hurry up."
Others also felt that the colleague had been too talkative and wasted everyone's time. There was still an hour and a half left before lunch break, but he was eager to show off and wasted everyone's time.
Jiang Yining was in a hurry to feed He Xiaohui and didn't think too much about it.
When she fed He Xiaohui cat food, he was cursing and seemed very angry. Jiang Yining patted He Xiaohui's head and apologized to him, "I'm sorry, I didn't starve you, did I?"
"Anyway, I don't understand what you're saying, so I'll just take it as a denial."
He Xiaohui lowered his head to eat cat food. Perhaps he understood what Jiang Yining said, but he raised his head and meowed a few times.
Its eyes were filled with grievance and anger.
Jiang Yining asked with amusement, "Did He Chi bully you this morning?"
He Xiaohui didn't even eat the cat food and meowed loudly at Jiang Yining.
It was particularly excited when it heard He Chi's name, and Jiang Yining didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Aunt Wang has gone to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for today's lunch.
Jiang Yining ate a bun. Since he had nothing to do, he decided to go and help.
After a few polite words, Aunt Wang felt that Jiang Yining was not arrogant and liked talking to her, so the two of them started chatting.
Jiang Yining asked curiously, "Auntie Wang, how is your salary calculated?"
Aunt Wang said, "We pay by the hour. Employers estimate the time based on their needs. For example, Mr. He said it would take about four hours. After we arrive at your home, we will complete the required work as quickly as possible and pay you based on the time it takes from arrival to completion."
Jiang Yining asked again, "How much is your hourly wage?"
