Chapter 694: A Life of Fear
In the first three days of Chen Wanyan's arrival at the Qin family, she basically studied the rules of the Qin family's old mansion for many years.
She had lived for so long and had no idea that there could be so many rules in a family, and just remembering them made her feel exhausted, as if she had just run a long marathon.
However, even so, when Chen's mother asked her, Chen Wanyan would still stammer, unable to answer a reason, and could only bow her head embarrassedly to accept the other party's teaching.
Chen Wanyan has also worked a lot, but it is the first time she feels so tired, as if she is a spinning top that will not stop spinning 24 hours a day, as long as Chen's mother does not shout to stop, she will never be able to stop.
Under the guidance of the other party, she learned to wipe the furniture, learned how to prune the branches, learned how to make a unique afternoon tea, and also remembered that Qin Ruoxuan likes to drink black tea flown from the UK, while Qin Yueer likes to drink Braunway cocktails.
As the servants of the Qin family, they must remember all the preferences and taboos of the eldest ladies, provide the best service, and avoid everything that touches the minefield.
Chen Wanyan has been in the Bo family for so long, and she doesn't remember the taste of Sheng Mingzhu's food, and it is indeed even more difficult for her to remember so many things in a short period of time.
It's a pity that she doesn't have a chance to breathe, so she needs to prepare the Qin family's meals non-stop.
Qin Ruoxuan's meals on weekdays, the ingredients are directly airlifted from abroad, as fresh as they want, where to buy authentically.
So when Chen Wanyan saw a sea lobster bigger than her head in the kitchen, and heard Chen's mother say that she was going to make lobster porridge for Qin Ruoxuan early in the morning, she was surprised and almost didn't drop her chin to the ground.
She also thought that the lives of those young ladies were just random performances on TV, but she didn't expect that she could see them up close like this, and the situation was even more luxurious than she imagined.
How could she guess that what Qin Ruoxuan usually eats is a lobster that was shipped back from abroad early in the morning, and she didn't eat it whole, but just took the most essential part of it and stewed porridge.
"The eldest lady is very particular about eating, the lobster should be washed and the dirty things inside should be removed, and all the hard shells should be thrown away, and only the best part of the essence needs to be left."
Chen's mother taught her very carefully, taught her how to remove the shrimp shell, how to take out the shrimp meat completely, and told her the tips for making porridge: "The porridge can't be stewed too viscous, the shrimp meat is boiled, and it can't be stewed too clearly, and there is no shrimp flavor at all. ”
Chen Wanyan was already anxious just to learn how to make lobster porridge, she was in a hurry in the kitchen, and she couldn't wait to stretch out several hands like Nezha.
She was busy in the kitchen for a full two hours before she cooked a pot of fresh lobster porridge under the guidance of Chen's mother, and before she had time to take a look at what was going on, it was already time for Qin Ruoxuan to have breakfast.
Chen Wanyan hurriedly filled a bowl of lobster porridge and sent it to the dining table in small steps.
Qin Ruoxuan was dragging her chin and sitting at the table waiting for her breakfast, she raised her eyes to look at Chen Wanyan, and then looked down at the lobster porridge brought by the other party.
After chatting with her sister Qin Yue'er yesterday, her ups and downs finally calmed down.
She also realized that the most important thing at the moment was not to change the old stubborn grandfather's temperament, but to teach the trouble that had been brought back from the Bo family.
The characters who can make Sheng Mingzhu feel a headache are naturally not simple characters.
Qin Ruoxuan had already been convinced in her heart that this woman named Chen Wanyan must be the kind of person who likes to be cautious.
"The color and fragrance seem to be Mama Chen's craft, it seems that Mama Chen has taught you less."
As she spoke, she picked up the spoon, scooped half a spoonful to her mouth, tasted the taste and quickly put it back in the bowl: "But the heat is not well controlled, and the fragrance of the Keshilan lobster is not stewed into the porridge, and the fragrance of the condiment overwhelms the lobster, but it is a pity that I have airlifted the fresh ingredients that came by air early in the morning." ”
Qin Ruoxuan didn't mean to embarrass her, but just objectively evaluated the situation of this lobster porridge, but these words were full of sarcasm and ridicule in Chen Wanyan's ears.
From the moment she followed the other party to the Qin family's old mansion, she knew that Qin Ruoxuan had no good intentions, and planned to use her identity as the eldest lady of the Qin family to put pressure on her, so that she could feel the huge sense of oppression brought by the rich family.
Chen Wanyan felt that Qin Ruoxuan was helping Sheng Mingzhu to vent her anger, after all, the time she stayed in Bo Sicheng's apartment did not cause Sheng Mingzhu any trouble.
Although she felt annoyed and aggrieved in her heart, pretending to be another look on her face was Chen Wanyan's strength.
"I'm sorry Miss Qin, I didn't know it would be like this, I had worked hard to do it, but I didn't expect it to be such a result."
She was afraid that the other party would blame herself for this fault, and she couldn't afford to compensate for the lobster that was transported from Ke Xilan.
Fortunately, Qin Ruoxuan didn't scold her too much, just asked her to pay a little attention, and didn't plan to ask her to compensate the lobster.
Chen Wanyan patted her chest and returned to the maid's lounge, only feeling that she couldn't sleep well or eat because she was scared.
When she was in the Bo family, she did things casually, even if she didn't do well enough, Sheng Mingzhu was magnanimous and wouldn't care about her.
Coupled with the easy-going direction of the other party, her usual life is not like a broad wife but more like an ordinary person, Chen Wanyan doesn't have to get along with her like Qin Ruoxuan, a veritable eldest lady.
And in the Bo family's apartment, she has a lot of time to be lazy, but in the Qin family's old mansion, there are eyes staring at her everywhere, and she doesn't even have a pitiful time to rest, and she is even more afraid that Mother Chen will see her and say that she is not nimble.
Chen Wanyan only knew what it meant to be idle and what it meant to be hard, she had only been working in the Qin family for a few days, and she felt that she was tired and had a sore back, and she was uncomfortable everywhere in her body.
Where is she the kind of person who does things with peace of mind, even if she is reluctant to help the Qin family.
Chen Wanyan doesn't want to be rich and rich, nor does she want to be able to get involved with the Qin family, she just wants to enjoy life comfortably and have a job that can make her live a good life.
