Chapter 834: Shen Jie's Morning

Chen Jie thought that life in the Meng family would be very lively, but the reality was much purer than she thought.

Although there are many people in this yard, not many people will disturb them. Their daily life is only the third generation of Meng Huo family and Shen Jie. When they first arrived, there were many bodyguards and nannies, but these people were slowly driven home by the old lady of the Meng family.

There are only four or five people serving the old lady now. These people usually stay quietly aside and do not interfere with Chen Jie and the others' lives. Chen Jie likes this purity, which is much purer than her home. The place is very large, very free, and I am very happy every day.

A week later, she was completely used to this kind of life.

At seven o'clock in the morning, Chen Jie got up from the quilt as usual. After washing up, she walked into Meng Huo's room not far away, and then lifted Meng Huo's quilt, who was still sleeping: "Meng Huo, get up."

As soon as the quilt was lifted, Meng Huo was awakened coldly.

He got up to dress, but Chen Jie didn't leave during this process, and kept looking at him with wide eyes.

Although it is wearing clothes, not changing clothes, Meng Huo is still uncomfortable every time he is seen: "Do you need to come over and quarrel every day? Even if you don't come, I can still get up on time... Besides, you are a ⊕≥ Is it appropriate for a woman to stare at me every day to wear clothes?"

"What's wrong with it? You won't lose a piece of meat." Chen Jie laughed and said, "If you hate it, you can take revenge on me and come to see me in the morning, as long as you get up earlier than me."

"Do you think I dare not?"

"Do you dare?"

"Okay, I'll get up early tomorrow..." Meng Huo put on his clothes and turned to look at Chen Jie: "You will know if I dare."

Chen Jie was stunned. Then she felt a little guilty: "I am different from you. I will lock the door when I sleep... Okay. I should go and help Aunt Qin prepare breakfast. You can draw first. I will call you after the breakfast is ready."

She hurriedly walked out, Meng Huo kept watching her back disappear, then shook her head and turned around and walked into the bathroom.

After Chen Jie came to the kitchen, Li Qin happened to take the ingredients for breakfast from a servant. Since she came to the Meng family, she has been responsible for the daily meals, but the ingredients still have to be bought by the servant.

"Madam, this fish has not been killed yet, so I'll help you..."

"No need, I have a helper, look..." Li Qin refused the servant's help and looked at Chen Jie: "Come and help, the old lady will get up later. We have to prepare breakfast before she gets up."

"Okay, Aunt Qin!"

Chen Jie raised her sleeves and asked her servant to leave, and then helped Li Qin prepare breakfast. In the past week, Chen Jie's most important job was to cook with Li Qin. Although the old lady occasionally helped them make dumplings, other things were not suitable.

As for Meng Huo, he didn't have to worry about anything at all.

"You killed better than me." Seeing Chen Jie killing fish quickly and skillfully, Li Qin couldn't help but praise her. She loved Chen Jie's craftsmanship very much. It is hard to find such a diligent and capable woman these days.

When I returned to Qingcheng a while ago, several distant relatives who were not even Li Qin knew very well and met her daughter. The girls were very enthusiastic about her and tried every means to please her, and would take the initiative to help with her work - but none of them were as skilled as Chen Jie.

Once, Li Qin wanted to ask them to kill a chicken, but there were only two girls who dared to attack. Moreover, both girls were very unskilled, and it was obvious that they were doing a show, which made Li Qin very angry.

Of course she understood what those people were thinking. As Meng Huo got closer and closer to the age of starting a family, I don’t know how many people in his hometown were thinking about him. Before, many people in Li Village had matched Li Qin, and now they are getting worse, and relatives who are thousands of miles away have come here.

However, if you don’t know the difference without comparison, you won’t know the difference. After spending a week with Chen Jie, Li Qin never looked down on those girls anymore.

"Smart and capable, where can I find such a daughter-in-law?" - Li Qin thought so. Although she felt a lot of sympathy for Alice, she really liked Chen Jie more from the bottom of her heart, because Chen Jie is more like her.

Alice is also smart and capable, but what she can do is work, not life. After all, Alice was born as a lady, and Li Qin can be friends with her. If she wants to live together, the difference in habits will become bigger and bigger, so it is better to be harmonious with Chen Jie.

The simplest phenomenon is cooking and housework. Alice can’t cook. Although she can do some housework, she cannot do it diligently. In Li Qin’s mind, she is not a good woman who manages the house, and Chen Jie is just the opposite. She is very consistent with Li Qin in life, and the two of them are very compatible.

"Has the little hunt been raised?" Li Qin asked again.

"Yes." Chen Jie nodded: "I'll go and call him to have a meal later."

"He is really. I thought he could have a good rest after the holiday, but he still painted all day long." Li Qin sighed and said, "You don't complain to him a few times. You both have time. I hope you can go out for more walks."

She was quite a bit disappointed. Chen Jie was such a rare opportunity to be with Meng Huo, but it was a waste that these two little guys didn't seize the time to cultivate their relationship.

The total holiday for Phoenix Company is only half a month. Now a week has passed. The Spring Festival is in a few days, but Chen Jie and Meng Huo have not made any progress. No wonder Li Qin is secretly anxious.

"Isn't this good? What's the matter..." However, Chen Jie didn't care. She was very satisfied with her current life: "Meng Huo is Meng Huo like this, and... I like how he paints very much."

Her face was slightly red, unlike in the past few years. Now Chen Jie is more and more able to appreciate mature men. She likes Meng Huo's usual paintings, which is quiet and handsome, and her quiet look makes her particularly obsessed.

Moreover, she stayed with Meng Huo a lot. Every morning and afternoon, she would go to Meng Huo’s studio to work with him. Although she couldn’t draw, she could do it simply by painting. Chen Jie was already very happy to be able to work with Meng Huo.

She had never been so close to Meng Huo. Every day, she could look at his face and paint at the closest distance. This feeling... It was as if Meng Huo had become something she owned alone, which was very reassuring.

Chen Jie enjoys such a life and is fulfilling every day.

"You are also a elm head..." But Li Qin's evaluation of Chen Jie was just a fool. She had the opportunity to not launch a stronger attack, but was immersed in satisfaction. She did not take Meng Huo down completely as soon as possible. This was a elm head, but don't forget that she had a rival in love.

Of course, Li Qin was anxious, but she couldn't say it out loud. If she reminded Chen Jie and drove her to change her behavior, it would be Li Qin's behavior that stood by. But she herself told Meng Huo that she would not stand by, and that she would not be able to pass this hurdle in her heart.

"Oh..." So apart from sighing, Li Qin could not find any other way to deal with it. She could only expect Chen Jie to detect the crisis as soon as possible.

And just as Li Qin sighed, another person walked into the kitchen.

"Have the breakfast not been prepared yet?" asked the old lady.

"You have to wait a little longer." Li Qin looked back and said, "You can sit outside and wait a moment, and it will be fine soon."

Chen Jie looked at the old lady in surprise. Why did she get up earlier today? In fact, the old lady gets up very early every day and comes out to have dinner on time at 8 o'clock. She is healthier than most of the elderly in Chen Jie's memory.

The old lady was not in a hurry to leave. She took a look at the kitchen situation and liked today's breakfast.

"Is this fish noodles? I haven't eaten what vegetables to put in several years." She said. It's rare to put fish noodles when making dough, but it looks great. The old lady also likes the meals between Li Qin and the others.

The food they usually cook cannot be said to be too delicious, not as good as the ones made by the nanny at home, but it is very distinctive. Each one is very attentive, and there are many tricks that old ladies have never seen before, and this is what the old ladies like the most - she likes their attentiveness.

"I know what kind of vegetables you like to eat, so don't worry." Li Qin smiled and said, "I have prepared several kinds of vegetables, and each noodles have different vegetables, and Meng Huo will definitely be happy."

The old lady nodded, and looked at Li Qin and the others' busyness, her heart was filled with warmth. The old lady hadn't felt this family-like feeling for a long time.

"Chen Jie." Before leaving, the old lady remembered something and reminded Chen Jie: "A customer is coming after dinner. You go and paint with Meng Huo's child, don't come out... Of course, don't let him come out, do you know?"

Chen Jie was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously: "I understand."

Guests - If you want to say something wrong with Chen Jie in the Meng family, it is these guests. Guests come to visit the old lady every day, and there are not many guests, so Chen Jie and the others don’t need to face it. It seems that it is not a problem.

But Chen Jie always felt something was wrong. She knew from the words of the servants that these guests were from the Meng Group. They came here to greet the old lady-but in addition, it seemed that they also wanted to see Meng Huo.

Meng Huo didn't know about this, and the old lady didn't tell him, and of course Li Qin didn't say it either. And every time this time, Chen Jie would be sent to accompany Meng Huo. In fact, this company can also be said to be surveillance to prevent Meng Huo from suddenly showing up.

Of course, Chen Jie had never met those guests--obviously, the old lady didn't want her to meet those people either.

"Because I'm not outstanding enough..." Chen Jie thought sadly. The old lady and Li Qin were both very nice to her, but the reason why she didn't let her go out was easy to guess, that is, they had not yet admitted that she was Meng Huo's future wife.

Because it is not possible to admit it, Chen Jie's inability to show up caused misunderstandings.

From this point of view, she still has a long way to go. (To be continued...)
