Qin Mingyan always does what she says.
The next day, at daybreak, she went up to the third floor and banged on the door.
"Chen Yuan, it's already so late and you haven't gotten up yet! The Gu family doesn't keep idle people. If you are so lazy, you might as well get out of the Gu family as soon as possible, so that the old lady won't be upset when she sees you later!"
Qin Mingyan became more and more excited as she spoke, her hands turning red from clapping, but she didn't seem to be healed. "Did you hear that, Shen Yuan? Stop pretending you can't hear me in there, get up and clean up!"
The door suddenly opened, and the wind blew all over Qin Mingyan's face.
The unfinished words were stuck in my throat.
The irritation in Shen Yuan's eyes was as real as a substance. She asked back, "Is Xu Wenlou awake?"
She was just staying for one night, but she was asked to get up early and do things. On the other hand, how come Xu Wenlou, the person who was actually temporarily supported by the Gu family, had nothing to do and was so idle?
Does she look so easy to bully?
Qin Mingyan reacted quickly. Her fingers, which were white from regular maintenance and free of calluses, pointed at Chen Yuan and sarcastically said, "Whether Wen Lou is awake or not is none of your business. She's a guest, are you a guest too? Chen Yuan, remember your status. If you want to marry into our Gu family, you must respect and listen to the elders. You have no manners at all. I don't know what Ji Ju sees in you!"
He looks so tacky, not presentable at all!
Qin Mingyan rolled her eyes. "Alright, stop standing here. Ji Ju's grandmother is coming today. Let's clean up the house quickly so that the old lady won't find fault with us again."
That's what she said, but looking at her expression, she hoped that Shen Yuan would make more mistakes, which would ruin the first impression.
"By the way, the dishes from last night are still there, remember to wash them."
Hearing this, Shen Yuan's sleepiness immediately cleared up, "I remember there is a nanny at home."
"You have to finish what you started. You have to wash the dishes after you cooked the meal." Qin Mingyan breathed a sigh of relief, her expression became relaxed, and she walked away leisurely after giving her instructions.
Shen Yuan was left laughing in anger.
How refreshing! Rich families even require guests to wash their plates. The stingy ones would probably pluck the feathers of every passing goose.
My reluctance cannot overcome the complexity of the reality.
The nanny was ordered to come and call for help at the appointed time. Chen Yuan didn't want to embarrass her, and even more so, didn't want to embarrass herself. She stayed in the kitchen for five minutes and broke three plates and a bowl.
Qin Mingyan was sitting in the living room outside. She was so startled by the noise that she didn't hold the fruit plate firmly. All the fruit fell on her clothes, leaving a terrible stain.
He immediately slammed the table and stood up angrily, "Chen Yuan, you want to rebel!"
"What's going on?"
Two voices sounded at the same time, and Shen Yuan subconsciously turned around.
Gu Jiju slowly walked down the stairs from the second floor, his sword-like brows furrowed, and his narrow eyes swept across the messy ground. Before he could say anything, Qin Mingyan started yelling.
"You can't even wash the dishes peacefully, and you keep smashing plates and bowls. Who are you angry with?" She turned to look at Gu Jiju and complained sharply, "Jiju, look at this good girl you were going to marry. She's already causing trouble for me as soon as she came home. She's already causing chaos so early in the morning. Who can stand this?"
A big hat was put on and Shen Yuan pursed her lips.
It's not her style to be bullied.
His eyes swept across the sink, and when he saw a piece of porcelain bowl fragment flying up, his eyes lit up.
The edge of the porcelain was sharp, and blood gushed out almost the moment it was touched.
It is bright red and eye-catching.
"I didn't mean to do that." Chen Yuan looked at the man hesitantly, holding up her injured finger, her eyes reddening. "Gu Jiju, I accidentally cut my hand. Do you have any Band-Aids at home?"
"Why are you pretending to be pitiful? Those broken pieces of porcelain are a million miles away from you. How could you have cut yourself if you didn't do it on purpose?"
Qin Mingyan was furious, but she didn't notice that Gu Jiju's expression had already become impatient.
In the kitchen, Chen Yuan secretly squeezed her fingertips, enduring the insignificant sting, and forced a smile, "Gu Jiju, does your silence mean that you think the same about me?"
Qin Mingyan said she was pretending to be pitiful, so she pretended for her to see!
In her twenty years of life, Shen Yuan had never fought for favor, but now she has come to terms with it.
Who doesn't want to make themselves feel more comfortable?
"Gu Jiju, why don't you cancel the engagement? I don't need you to be responsible."
After hearing this, Qin Mingyan no longer cared about the dishes and bowls, and quickly said: "Chen Yuan, you said this yourself, don't say that our Gu family looks down on you..."
"Shut up!"
Qin Mingyan was stunned. Gu Jiju looked at her coldly, "This is my marriage. I don't need you to interfere!"
The servant lowered his head to clean up the mess, and the nanny brought a medicine box to treat Shen Yuan's wound.
The atmosphere is inexplicably low.
Qin Mingyan felt humiliated and her face was extremely gloomy. She sat on the sofa, looking as if waiting for the two to admit their mistakes. Even at this moment, she still didn't forget to mock them.
"She was dying when her hand was cut, and she was about to die when giving birth. She is indeed from a poor family. She can't do anything better than children raised by families like us."
Chen Yuan turned a deaf ear to it and treated it as wind in his ears.
Gu Jiju felt annoyed.
"If you don't know how to talk, then don't talk." It was so early in the morning that Gu Jiju couldn't help but frown even though he had a good temper. "Whether the engagement is cancelled or whether we have children or not is none of your business. If you interfere in my affairs again, I don't mind moving out of the house!"
The man's words completely grasped Qin Mingyan's lifeline, and her momentum visibly weakened.
Chen Yuan picked at the bandage on the wound and sneered silently.
After one day and one night, she had a general understanding of the Gu family's situation.
There are not many members, but there are a lot of things to do.
And each of them is not easy to deal with.
Chen Yuan couldn't help but observe a second of silence for herself. She could already foresee how "wonderful" her future life would be.
The broken porcelain in the kitchen was swept away, and the servant passed by several people on his way out.
Gu Jiju glanced around, and the bloody porcelain fragments came into view. Thinking of the beginning of this farce, he warned coldly: "I want to marry a wife, not a nanny. If I find out again that you rely on your status to order Shen Yuan to do things that a servant should do, the next time will not be as simple as today."
After saying this, Qin Mingyan widened her eyes.
"Ji Ju?" She looked surprised.
Gu Jiju tilted his head slightly and looked at her with lowered eyebrows, "Do you need me to repeat it again?"
Of course not.
No matter how angry Qin Mingyan was, Gu Jiju didn't even look at her after warning her. She didn't even have breakfast, changed her clothes and went to the company. The series of smooth movements made Shen Yuan sigh.
Not to mention, he looked quite handsome when he spoke for her just now.
Shen Yuan was the only one left in the living room. Just as she was thinking about how to solve the problem of breakfast, Quanquan came running out of its luxurious doghouse with a ruthless pace, biting Shen Yuan's trouser leg and walked in.
