But his wife said it smelled of foot odor. When he saw the fruit being thrown into the trash can, which was being held by Ah Kuan, he took out a handkerchief to cushion it, picked out a piece of jackfruit, and started smelling it. He smelled it again and again.
Fearing he might take a bite, Ah Kuan quickly gestured to the cook to bring over the rest: "Is there any more here?"
Nie Zhao actually took a bite, but something was wrong; there was no foot odor. Could it be that the product had been switched?
But just then, his wife's voice rang out from outside: "Ah Zhao?"
Nie Zhao threw away the trash, along with his handkerchief, washed his hands and wiped his mouth before coming out.
The Nie brothers were standing right in front of the fish tank. A-Yuan was very worried and was comforting his two dejected brothers, patting one and then the other: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay!"
Seeing the housekeeper chasing after her to hand her a towel, Chen Rou took it, handed it to Nie Zhao, and said, "Let it go."
He added, "They've all taken leave, so they only have about ten days left. Even on weekends, flights will be very tight, and visas will be hard to get. They won't be able to come back even if they want to. Let them rest for a while longer."
Knowing that nothing would happen, Nie Han crossed her arms and leisurely went upstairs.
But A-Yuan's life has just begun, and he doesn't yet have a thorough understanding of interpersonal relationships. So, he genuinely feels anxious for his two good-for-nothing older brothers who are always sickly, and he looks up at his father and asks, "Hmm?"
If Nie Jiajun were to leave without saying goodbye, Officer Xiao Mai would completely miss out.
Nie Jiayu also wanted to fall in love and didn't want to leave. She looked at her uncle with pitiful eyes.
Since his wife had spoken, what could Nie Zhao do? He said gruffly, "Aren't you going to thank your mistress?"
According to his attitude, Nie Jiajun and his brother should learn a lesson so that they will take their studies and work seriously.
After all, when he returned from studying abroad, he shamelessly joined the Nie family and, in collusion with Wei Deli, pretended to be cowardly and swallowed his anger while secretly plotting to seize power, he was Nie Jiajun's current age. Could he have done it if he were in Nie Jiajun's shoes?
Even if they don't inherit the family business, they still need to have a career, and the most important thing in doing a career is to be serious and willing to endure hardship.
Upon hearing that Xie Xiniang meant there was no need to leave, Nie Jiajun snatched the suitcase from the disappointed Ram and ran away.
Although Nie Jiayu was slow, he was faster than him, shoving him aside and rushing upstairs ahead of him.
Hehe, they can finally play openly for half a month.
Nie Zhao picked up his son and was about to go to the kitchen, but Chen Rou said, "It should be my problem."
He added, "It's probably because I ate a durian candy that A-Yuan fed me before."
Of course, things weren't that simple, because her sense of taste had become very strange, and what she had seen on the internet in her previous life, in the famous Baidu Experience, seemed to say that taste mutation was caused by allergies, and allergies were caused by cancer.
Therefore, one possibility is that Chen Rou's physical condition has changed.
But Baidu's most impressive feature is that it can link any bodily change to cancer.
Chen Rou certainly didn't think she would get cancer, but she couldn't help being a little worried, so she planned to go to the hospital for a check-up the next day.
It wouldn't be right to wrongly accuse the maids when they hadn't done anything wrong, so she said to Ah Kuan, "The problem should be with me, not you. You should be off work soon, go home and rest."
Ah Kuan is truly remarkable; he has taken care of the old man for so many years without ever leaving him, and now the young man has become a middle-aged man.
Nie Rong never said a bad word about his work, yet he would send rotten fruit to his wife.
I thank my wife; he was quite bold. From then on, I felt a clear sense of relief and grievance, and I was sad.
The idea that eating durian candy causes bad breath makes sense, so Nie Zhao decided not to pursue the matter further.
He picked up A-Yuan, who had been watching the drama unfold the whole way and was the most involved in the family, and dropped him twice. After carrying him upstairs, he kicked the soccer ball that A-Yuan had left at the bottom of the stairs away so that A-Yuan could chase after it. Only then did Nie Zhao say, "I'm just afraid that A-Kuan won't be as dedicated as Uncle Ming."
That's true, but a butler like Uncle Ming is a rare find.
Chen Rou said, "I will take better care of the family in the future, and Ahan will move back when he gets tired of living outside."
Actually, Nie Han felt sorry for her new husband and was worried that he would be too tired taking care of her. She wanted to move back home and enjoy the care of the house servants. Besides, she was already married, legally married, and licensed to work, so no one could say anything if she stayed at her parents' house.
Nie Zhao nodded, but then suddenly said, "He's a big guy, but his brain is like a baby's. He's hopeless."
A Yuan kicked the ball back, sending it soaring through the corridor before hitting his father. The little rascal had kicked his father in the groin, causing Nie Zhao to double over in pain before finally straightening up.
But still gently, he kicked the ball away, and said, "They have absolutely no experience in dealing with crises!"
He wasn't talking about real babies, of course, but two fake babies, Nie Jiajun and Nie Jiayu.
However, Chen Rou had a different opinion on this matter.
She said with a smile, "Actually, in the future, my feeling is that the younger generation will age more slowly and be more naive than the previous generation. But it's not because they are bad, but because society is getting better."
He added, "Jiayu and Jiajun are also benefiting from their family environment. They live in a safe and secure society and have a kind and caring uncle who takes care of everything for them. They don't have to worry about anything, so even as they get older, they naturally retain a childlike spirit. And not everyone has to be as tense as you."
It's normal for children to be a little naive when they are protected and sheltered from the wind and rain by adults.
