Chapter 42: My husband is rich, it doesn’t matter
"If you don't want to learn, what are you doing here?"
“…” He thought that if he acted as if he didn’t care, he wouldn’t be discovered, but Meng Chuyuan’s words made him feel guilty.
Meng Chuyuan glanced at him and said disdainfully, "A grown man can't even cook. Don't tell a girl you'll support me when you're in a relationship."
Lu Jinsen frowned and said unyieldingly, "My brother can't cook either, but you still married him?"
Meng Chuyuan's words left him speechless: "He's rich."
She is the only one who can speak so confidently.
After all, Lu Qingye is really rich.
Although Lu Jinsen came from a wealthy family, he was probably influenced by the workaholic Lu Qingye and always believed that his family's wealth had little to do with him. This was one of the reasons why he later chose to make his debut.
Seeing that he remained silent, Meng Chuyuan continued, "You may have a better family background, but you have a lot of bad habits. If you don't learn some real skills, who will respect you?"
Listening to Meng Chuyuan's answer, Lu Qianling silently gave her a thumbs up and admired her very much: "Great."
Lu Qianling thought that the two people had only known each other for a few days when they went to participate in the program, but she didn't expect that she summed up everything in one sentence.
Meng Chuyuan glanced at Lu Qianling indifferently. She had not had much contact with this guy, but judging by Lu Jinsen's personality, she should not be much better.
Perhaps stimulated by Meng Chuyuan's words, Lu Jinsen turned around and stayed in the kitchen, watching Uncle Yuan prepare the dishes and secretly writing down every step.
Seeing that he was willing to calm down and study, Meng Chuyuan went out for a stroll in the yard when he had nothing to do.
The last time Meng Chuyuan returned to the Lu residence was with Lu Qingye. It was the day after they got their marriage certificate. It was the first time Lu Qingye took her home for dinner and to meet his family.
But halfway through dinner that day, Lu Qingye received an urgent call saying that he had to go on a business trip. Before leaving the Lu residence, he did not forget to take Meng Chuyuan with him, causing her to not eat enough that night and even sleep poorly.
Lu Qianling had followed her out at some point and took the initiative to talk to Meng Chuyuan: "Do you know when my eldest brother will be back?"
"You'll have to ask your eldest brother about this."
The only time she and Lu Qingye had contact with each other was yesterday afternoon.
Lu Qingye had been away on a business trip for over half a month and hadn't called back once. However, Meng Chuyuan thought that even if he wanted to call, he probably wouldn't call her.
Lu Qianling stared at her with her eyes wide open in surprise, and scoffed softly: "No way? He probably didn't tell you when he was coming back?"
Meng Chuyuan raised his eyebrows and shrugged: "Are you surprised?"
“…” She still thought Meng Chuyuan knew.
It seems that's all.
After a while, Lu Qianling came over again and asked, "Do you want to move in?"
Meng Chuyuan suddenly stopped and turned to look at her, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes: "Why? Do you like me?"
Lu Qianling didn't expect her to stop suddenly. If she hadn't reacted quickly, she might have crashed into her.
She took a step back and kept a proper distance from Meng Chuyuan.
Lu Qianling said somewhat arrogantly: "When did I ever say I like you?"
To be honest, she didn't like Meng Chuyuan very much, but it was her elder brother who married her.
Lu Qianling narrowed her eyes, frowned slightly, and glanced at Meng Chuyuan from top to bottom. The contemptuous look in her eyes gradually eased.
Looking closely, Meng Chuyuan is indeed very beautiful.
She has a standard oval face, a pair of charming doe eyes with a gleam in them, and a cherry mouth slightly pursed with a faint smile. She is very healing and full of personal charm.
After just looking at her for a few seconds, Lu Qianling felt fascinated.
It was not until Meng Chuyuan's voice rang in her ears that Lu Qianling came back to her senses.
Meng Chuyuan looked at her, who seemed a little cute and arrogant, and jokingly said, "I thought you wanted me to get out."
Lu Qianling rolled her eyes at her mercilessly, her lips curled slightly: "Have you watched too many melodramatic TV dramas? If I tell you to get out, my brother will scold me to death when he comes back. I'm not that stupid."
Meng Chuyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Then you have to give me a reason to move here."
"What's wrong with moving in? My family can't hire a cook right now, and it's a hassle for Uncle Yuan to run around. Why don't you just move in? We all have food to eat, right?"
In fact, before ordering takeout last night, Lu Qianling had looked for Uncle Yuan and asked him to come and cook, but he said he couldn't come because of something.
Looking back today, Uncle Yuan’s refusal to come here last night must have been because Meng Chuyuan came back.
After a while, she said, "You can move in tonight."
Meng Chuyuan smiled helplessly: "So urgent?"
"Man is iron and rice is steel. How can we not be anxious when it comes to food?"
…
Meng Chuyuan didn't leave after having lunch here because Lu Qianling insisted that she move in.
So after lunch, she and Uncle Yuan spent the whole afternoon teaching Lu Jinsen how to cook.
At night, Lu Qianling took her directly to the second floor.
Lu Qianling opened the door and turned on the light. "This is my eldest brother's bedroom. You can stay here. I'll find some clothes for you later."
The last time he returned to the Lu residence, Meng Chuyuan never went up to the second floor, let alone visited Lu Qingye's bedroom.
Meng Chuyuan took a quick look and saw the simple European style of decoration, mainly in dark colors. There were not many decorations in the room. It was simple but not cumbersome, low-key but not luxurious.
"It does look like Lu Qingye's style, but are you sure you want me to live here?"
Lu Qianling put his hands in his pockets and gave her a cold look: "You have no choice but to live here."
She left the bedroom after saying something to Meng Chuyuan, and went downstairs. Seeing her mother who had just returned, Lu Qianling called her.
Hearing the voice, Mother Lu looked up at her, and her peripheral vision happened to fall on Lu Qingye's bedroom.
Mother Lu noticed that the door was open and light was still coming from inside. She withdrew her gaze and asked Lu Qianling, "Lingling, is your eldest brother back from his business trip?"
Lu Qianling shook her head and said, "No."
"Then why is the light on in his bedroom?"
"His wife, I asked her to move in."
Mother Lu looked up in surprise, her gaze sweeping upstairs again, her tone filled with surprise: "Why did you keep her here? And you let her live in your eldest brother's bedroom?"
"I don't want others to say that my family is bullying her and won't let her sleep in the master bedroom. Besides, they are husband and wife, and my eldest brother is willing to marry her, so he shouldn't mind me taking the initiative to give her the room."
"You seem to have grown up, kid. But you have to listen to your mother. Don't mess with her unless necessary. This woman looks difficult to deal with."
Lu Qingye is well-known for not being interested in women. No woman has been able to get close to him over the years. When Meng Chuyuan was able to get a marriage certificate with her son, Lu's mother knew that there must be more to it than meets the eye.
But she is an open-minded mother and never interferes in her children's affairs.
Lu Qianling nodded and responded, "Don't worry, I know what's going on."
