Veils of Beiping Novel Chapter 37
When she turned back to take a closer look, the servant had already entered the car and the car went in the opposite direction.
This deep and quiet alley seemed like a bottomless bag that could hold anything... and naturally it could also hold Jane's moment of hesitation.
Maybe they're just dressed similarly. The Shanghai beach is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, with foreigners and Chinese living together, and there are all kinds of people. It is not surprising that there is a woman who has returned to China.
Just when Jane closed her eyes, the look of the black robe, black scarf wrapping her head and face, and the deep sunken blue eyes, which had not appeared in her mind for a long time, gently emerged.
Cheng Gongguan started busy with the Sunday night banquet a few days in advance. Jane Cheng felt that she had not hosted any banquet for a long time and was very unfamiliar, so she had to pay special attention to some details. Fortunately, Aunt Li is her right-hand assistant. Not only does she prepare the food properly, she also advises on many things. She also takes on the task of leading the employees in purchasing. The accounts are also clearly listed, which makes Jane very relieved.
"Mr. Cheng, the Tu Mansion called and asked you to call back at your convenience. The wife there seems to have something going on." Aunt Li gave Jane the bill and put it on her desk.
Jane had just returned home from get off work at the hospital and was taking off her makeup.
She responded, and while listening to Aunt Li continue to report other matters, she picked up the bill and looked at it, asking: "Did you write this?" The handwriting was not pretty, but it was correct.
"Yes, sir." Aunt Li replied softly.
Jane couldn't help but look at Aunt Li again. Aunt Li, who looks unattractive but neat, was the old servant who stayed in this house when she came. Originally she was only in charge of the kitchen. There were not enough manpower and there were only a few maids, so Aunt Li did a lot of extra work. . Jane didn't believe that Aunt Li could write or calculate... If Aunt Li was so capable, she would consider promoting Aunt Li to be a housekeeper. The former housekeeper resigned the day after she moved in. She was not satisfied with anyone who recommended him to see a job these days. Although the house was small, it still had to be well-equipped. Without a housekeeper who could take care of everything, she would inevitably have to worry more.
"Mr. Cheng, do you have any more instructions? If not, I will go down and prepare dinner for you." Aunt Li said. The hostess's look seemed to have profound meaning, which made her feel inexplicably nervous.
"Go." Jane waited for Aunt Li to go out and continued to change clothes. She came back a little early today. I gradually got a feel for things in the hospital and got started quickly. The biggest thing I had to think about now was the biggest one, but I couldn't rush it. She simply came back earlier to take a rest. She needs to have enough energy to deal with those "gods of wealth" at the weekend banquet.
Then she came downstairs and smelled the fragrance.
Aunt Li's cooking skills are really incredible.
Although she felt hungry, she had not forgotten that the first thing she had to do was to make a phone call to Tu Mansion.
The person who answered the phone was Qiu Wei.
Qiu Wei told her that Suixin was fine these past two days.
In fact, she had already learned about Suixin's condition from Dr. Schmidt, but it was different to hear Qiu Wei explain it herself.
"How are you?" Jane held the phone and said, "I have to check you out. Come to the hospital next week and I'll ask someone to reserve time for you before I notify you." She did not speak to Qiu Wei in a negotiating tone.
Although Qiu Wei was hesitant, she didn't say no.
