Nanxi finally returned to bed. The most important thing for her now was to take good care of her body. As long as Cha Mu had no intention of hurting her, then escaping would be a long time coming. The key was to protect the baby first.
At half past ten in the morning, the door of the room was knocked again. Her husband was not around. The little woman got up in a rage and saw a woman with no expression standing at the door.
"Hello, ma'am. It's time for you to get up and have breakfast. The gentleman has instructed that after breakfast, he will take you to familiarize yourself with the island."
Nanxi looked at the woman opposite him. Although she acted businesslike, as a member of the same sex, he could still sense the subtle hostility emanating from her. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and scrutinize the woman carefully.
She has a slender figure, brown hair, wheat-colored skin, delicate and well-proportioned features, light brown eyes, and deep and three-dimensional facial features. She does not look like a pure Asian, but she speaks Chinese fluently.
Although the eldest lady was a little afraid of Cha Mu, thinking that he was evil, she was still arrogant and difficult to approach towards other people. She withdrew her eyebrows from the face of the person opposite her and said coldly,
"Okay, forget it this time. From now on, I can get up whenever I want. Don't disturb me when I'm not up."
The woman at the door obviously didn't expect to run into such a tough guy. How could this woman, who was held in her husband's arms with uneasy eyes last night, become so unapproachable after waking up from her sleep?
Onishan was the housekeeper of the castle, half the master. When her master was away, she had the final say in the entire Xiyue Island. No one had ever spoken to her in such an attitude. There were several servants cleaning downstairs and not far from the stairs. She couldn't even keep a cold expression on her face, and her light eyes darkened.
"Madam, this is what the gentleman meant."
"Then let your husband come and tell me in person." Nan Xi said and closed the door directly.
She may not be good at anything else, but she is the best at throwing tantrums and making the place a mess. She hasn't used it for a long time, so she's still a little rusty. It's okay, just find fault a few more times and it will be fine.
Nanxi changed into a light yellow home dress and tied her long hair up high with an ebony hairpin. She looked a lot more energetic. She put on her slippers and lazily went downstairs.
As soon as he sat down, he started to find fault, pointing at Aonishan and asking, "What's your name?"
"Onishan." The woman standing opposite answered.
"Well, when you see me from now on, you have to put your hands together and greet me. Do you understand the rules?"
Aonishan's face was very ugly. She stood there stiffly for more than ten seconds before she raised her hands and put them together to the tip of her nose. "Yes, ma'am."
Nanxi looked at her delicate and slender fingers, which had nude manicure. It was obvious that they were carefully cared for. The nails were of moderate length, but the area around the nails was smooth and shiny. She probably didn't do any work and only moved her mouth. So it seemed that she was the housekeeper here.
She calmly picked up a steamed dumpling and placed it in the bone china bowl in front of her.
Because she had just arrived, the kitchen didn't know her taste, so they picked out a little bit of everything that Chinese people usually eat for breakfast and made a little bit of everything, which was considered some effort.
But this young lady only took a small bite of each dish, frowned repeatedly, and then put down her chopsticks with an unhappy look on her face.
"Onishan, please explain to me why today's breakfast is so unpalatable."
Aonishan's expression turned even worse. She stepped forward and said, "Madam, if anything doesn't suit your taste, I'll ask the kitchen to remake it."
"None of them suits my taste. The porridge is too sweet, the dumplings have a strong ginger taste, are the fried dough sticks fried in gutter oil? They smell like greasy residue, and this custard bun is raw inside..."
She reviewed each dish and finally concluded by looking across at the other side, "Are you guys doing this on purpose? Do you think I'm easy to bully since I just arrived?"
How could Onishan not see that the new lady was looking for trouble when she got here?
He straightened his face and returned to his mechanical expression. "Madam, the chefs in the kitchen are all Chinese chefs hired by you at a high price. Even when you dine with us, they never complain. I advise you not to find fault with us servants here and make things difficult for us servants. Why don't you just eat and relax."
Onishan's implication was very clear. You are just a canary in captivity. It is unknown how long you can jump around. Why do you have to act like a tyrant here?
Upon hearing this, Nanxi took the opportunity to make some trouble.
Snap——
The chopsticks in her hand were thrown heavily onto the table, hitting the edge of the plate and bouncing onto the ground.
"How dare you seduce me?"
The eldest lady's temper flared up, and she was very willful and capricious. She glared at Aonishan with moist eyes, "Your husband is your husband, and I am me. If he can eat it, then I can eat it too? I'm a spoiled child, how can I eat these broken things?"
"Madam, do you still want to eat dragon meat from heaven?" Onishan has always been respectful on the island. Even the master is very polite to her and even gives her gifts every time he comes to the island. It is the first time that she has been scolded like this. How can she endure it?
Seeing that she was provoked by him, Nanxi curled the corners of his mouth, his momentum became more fierce, and he raised his eyes and sneered, "I want to eat it, but you have to have the ability to get it for me."
Onishan was choked by her words. She was neither able to move forward nor backward, neither to walk nor to stand. The expression on her face changed several times, and she was almost unable to hold it in.
"Baby, what's wrong?"
Suddenly, a man's cool voice came from the study on the third floor. Then, a man in white home clothes walked down slowly. Behind him, there was a man of European and American appearance who was about fifty years old.
Cha Mu came over, his eyes as dark as a cold pond swept across Aonishan's face, which was about to cry, and then fell on Nanxi's cold face. He didn't speak for ten seconds, then sat down on the dining chair and waved.
"Onishan, go get busy. Pay the chef's salary, send him off the island tomorrow, and then find another cook."
Onishan bit her lip, glanced at the handsome and elegant profile of her husband, then glanced at the fearless woman opposite her, nodded and turned around.
"Wait." Nanxi called out, stopping the woman who was about to leave.
"Did you turn a deaf ear to my words? Do you have any sense of hierarchy? Is this how your teacher taught you the rules?" Nanxi's tone was extremely arrogant and domineering, without even batting an eyelid.
Onishan was furious, clenched her fists at her sides, and looked at Chamu with grievance.
"Madam is right. I am usually busy and neglected it. In the future, please take the trouble to teach the servants the rules." Cha Mu deliberately indulged her with a doting smile in the corner of his eyes.
No wonder so many men want her. She is really interesting. Even when she loses her temper, she is so cute.
Nanxi curled her lips, picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip, then met the man's eyes with moist eyes, clear and proud, "No problem."
She then looked at Onishan and said, "Then I'll start with you."
Aonishan bit her lips until they bled. Holding back her tears, she clasped her hands together and said, "Yes, Madam. I'll go down first."
Nanxi then lowered her eyelids, "Well, don't come near me if you have nothing to do. It's an eyesore."
