84. Life depends on acting
When Lin Shuang and Fang Ya met again, they both understood each other but could only pretend to be confused.
Fang Ya is the dignified and generous new hostess, and she Lin Shuang is clearly her predecessor, but she is sadly reduced to serving as a housekeeper. The gathering of the three of them should have been embarrassing, but they had to pretend to be kind and normal.
In Lin Shuang's view, this is simply self-deception.
According to Ji Luohan's request, she prepared the dinner very heartily. Anyway, she also stayed in the Ji family, and she had seen how Aunt Qing prepared before, so she was quite methodical and thoughtful.
This restaurant, she deliberately designed it to be warm and bright, a round table is more suitable for the family to sit around to eat and chat, and even the lamp and light on the table are also the ones she has been debugging for a long time to strive for the most comfortable dining experience.
didn't want the bright atmosphere she created by herself, and she just made her embarrassment at this time more and more ridiculous.
"Miss Lin, I'm really sorry." Fang Ya sat beside Ji Luohan and said softly, "Because I'm too picky, I haven't found a satisfactory housekeeper so far." I heard that you are very researched in this area, so I willfully asked Brother Han to ask you to come over and help for a few days. Thank you very much. ”
At this moment, Lin Shuang was deeply impressed by Fang Ya's acting skills. I really didn't expect that she would be able to perform this completely unknown scene.
Lin Shuang served the last dish, smiled politely, and simply replied, "You're polite, it's a gesture." Thinking that Fang Ya really didn't have to be like this, these words sounded to her, it was simply three hundred taels of silver here, which was even more embarrassing.
And Ji Luohan didn't interfere, and he looked like he didn't care about himself.
"The dishes are ready, Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji use them slowly." After saying that, Lin Shuang wanted to leave quickly.
"Wait." At this time, Ji Luohan opened his mouth, "Mrs. doesn't like to peel shrimp, you can deal with it." And gestured to the plate of boiled shrimp.
Lin Shuang was stunned, wasn't this boiled shrimp one of the dishes he ordered?! Since you don't like peeling shrimp, why don't you let people make shrimp?! Hey, you did it on purpose, didn't you?
Seeing this, Fang Ya stretched out her jade hand to caress Ji Luohan's hand, and said coquettishly: "I'm not a child, wouldn't it be good to peel it myself, why bother others?" ”
And Ji Luohan showed a doting smile, shook her hand back, and said softly: "Since you were a child, you don't like oil on your hands, and in the end, I didn't always help you peel it!" ”
"Why do you always treat people as children! In fact, isn't it just that you don't want to peel it, and it's troublesome? Fang Ya smiled and complained.
"For you, when have I ever been in trouble." Ji Luohan's voice was as light as the two of them, "It's just shrimp peeling, it's okay for a lifetime." ”
Fang Ya couldn't help but smile when she heard it, it was 100% sweet to the heart, and her coquettish appearance was enough to melt people's hearts.
Lin Shuang didn't want to be this audience, not because of anything else, but because he really couldn't stand Ji Luohan's soft-spoken appearance. Whether this is the reason for her small belly and chicken intestines, in short, she just feels so disgusting that she wants to vomit.
She was also surprised. Why are women so coaxing?! As long as a man speaks a few sweet words, he can be happy like this!
"Miss Lin." However, Ji Luohan looked at her coldly, "You always seem to be distracted?" ”
Lin Shuang was stunned, and hurriedly said, "I'll go get disposable gloves, and then I'll come over to peel shrimp." ”
"Miss Lin, don't need it, you can also sit down and eat with us." Fang Ya warmly invited.
"Thanks, but I really don't need to." Lin Shuang didn't take this kind of thing seriously, turned around and went to the kitchen to put on disposable gloves, and then came over and stood aside to peel the plate of shrimp, which was used as a human flesh background board by the way.
While she was peeling shrimp, Ji Luohan and Fang Ya had been chatting happily.
Originally, the appearance of the two of them belonged to the level above pleasing to the eye, how could such a picture not make people feel harmonious, how could it not be enviable.
Even though she felt a little uncomfortable, Lin Shuang still had to admit realistically that a lovely person like Fang Ya was the best choice for Mrs. Ji.
"Uncle...... No, is Dad's health better? Ji Luohan asked with concern.
Fang Ya smiled and nodded, there was still a trace of worry in her expression: "I'll have to go back to the hospital later, my brother is there alone, I'm not very relieved." ”
"I'll go with you later."
"No need. You're so busy, it's better to rest more, I don't want to be sick with you again. Fang Ya was even more worried.
Ji Luohan shook her hand unhindered and signaled: "I'll come back when I go with you." ”
"That'...... All right. ”
Lin Shuang heard what they said on the side, and immediately thought of Fang Hui.
How could his father suddenly fall ill, hearing Fang Ya say this, then he was alone in the hospital at this time? Did he eat, did he have a ......
Before she had a chance to continue thinking about it, Ji Luohan suddenly said, "Miss Lin, it seems that you are not good at peeling shrimp." ”
Isn't it just a little slower, and this is also used as a mockery! Lin Shuang sighed secretly, then presented the peeled shrimp to Fang Ya and said, "I'm sorry, I don't usually touch seafood, so it's a little slow." ”
"It's okay." Fang Ya smiled, and then said to her, "Miss Lin, you heard it too. My father was sick, so I spent most of my time in the hospital taking care of him. It's a matter of trouble for you to worry about things at home. ”
Lin Shuang nodded hurriedly when she heard this, and had no intention of catching a glimpse of Ji Luohan's face, which was simply full of clouds.
I don't know that he is because she is not sharp enough to peel shrimp and neglect his lover; Or is it because she's just standing there peeling shrimp as if she's fine......
Oops, she should be a little uncomfortable so that she can satisfy his revenge mentality. Lin Shuang, Lin Shuang, life depends on acting skills, do you know!
She secretly beat herself in her heart, and went back to the kitchen with a large plate of shrimp shells.
After dinner, Ji Luohan accompanied Fang Ya out of the door. Lin Shuang, together with a few servants, first cleaned up, and then discussed the list and time of tomorrow's breakfast there.
Seeing that Lin Shuang's thinking was clear, and she was all sorted out on the paper one by one, several servants inevitably had some admiration for her. "Steward Lin, it's amazing that you can be a housekeeper in this kind of family at such a young age!"
Seeing these little girls looking up at her, Lin Shuang couldn't laugh or cry, patted their heads and said, "It's all said, I'm not a housekeeper." You can call me Sister Shuang, Sister Lin, you can do it. I'm just here to help for a few days, and then you'll be able to pat the real butler on the back. ”
The little girls giggled, "Shall we go and rest now?" ”
"You don't go to rest and you don't get paid overtime?" Lin Shuang had an expression that still needed to be said.
When the little girls had laughed and dispersed, she went back to her room and lay down to catch her breath. I really didn't expect that this waiter was much more tiring than following those masters and cement on the construction site.
She took out her phone and saw that it was already eleven o'clock at night.
She hesitated for a long time and sent a text message: I heard that your dad is sick, is he better?
