Chapter 633 Staying in the Old House Smoothly
"Well, it's probably because Madam Jiang dotes on Miss Jiang too much, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed to let me stay so easily."
"I am the only child of my mother. If she doesn't spoil me, who else will she spoil? You can go to the room with the housekeeper to pack your things later. Jiang Mubai, don't see me today. Just tell her yourself later."
"Okay, then I'll just follow Miss Jiang's arrangements."
Seeing Jiang Jinglan say this, Wen Nuohan had no choice but to agree. She originally thought that Jiang Jinglan could help her speak up, so that she wouldn't have to meet Jiang Mubai alone tomorrow.
When it comes to getting paid to do something, Wen Nuohan thinks it would be better for him to be obedient and sensible.
Jiang Jinglan found the housekeeper of the old house and asked her to arrange a room for Wen Nuohan and took Wen Nuohan to clean up the room. Jiang Jinglan herself waited in the hall for Jiang Mubai to finish class so that she could talk to her about something.
When it was time for Jiang Mubai to finish class, Jiang Jinglan waited for a few minutes and saw Jiang Mubai appear on the stairs.
"Mu Bai, are you done with get out of class? Come sit here. I have something to tell you."
Seeing Jiang Jinglan say this, Jiang Mubai came over and sat down next to him.
"Sister Jinglan, do you have anything to ask me?"
"This is the dessert I brought back specially for you and my mom. You can try it. I've tried it and it's not very sweet. I think it tastes good, so I brought some back for you to try."
"Okay, but this is too much. How can we finish it all?"
"You don't have to finish it. Just give it to you to taste. If you finish it, we won't need to have dinner."
Jiang Mubai picked up the dessert closest to him and started eating. "It tastes really good. No wonder Sister Jinglan brought it back specially for me and my aunt."
Jiang Mubai immediately felt embarrassed when he saw that he was the only one eating: "Sister Jinglan, why don't you eat? It would be so embarrassing for me to eat alone!"
"I've eaten in the afternoon, and I'm not hungry now. If you like to wait, you can eat more."
"Has Auntie eaten yet? Should we send someone up to ask her to come down and eat with us?"
"No, my mom just saw it. She went upstairs because she was afraid that eating dessert would make her stomach upset. So these things are all for you. It's okay if you can't finish them. Don't worry about wasting them. If you like them, just tell me next time and I'll bring them back for you next time I go out."
"Okay, if I want to eat, I'll tell you, Sister Jinglan, but eating too much is not good, so I'd better eat less."
Jiang Mubai put down the plate after finishing a small dessert. "Sister Jinglan, is that what you want to tell me is for me to come down and eat dessert?"
"Of course not. I do have something to tell you."
Jiang Mubai saw that Jiang Jinglan really had something to talk to him about, so he looked at her with a listening attitude.
"Mu Bai, I met a friend when I went out today, and she recommended someone to me. She has also been pregnant for more than two months and had just given birth. During this period, Chu Xin has been taking care of her emotions, which is why she is so cheerful. I heard that she was very good, so I brought Chu Xin back to the old house to let her accompany you."
Jiang Mubai didn't understand what Jiang Jinglan meant by this.
"Sister Jinglan, what do you mean by this? Who is Chu Xin? From what I heard you say, she is already in the old house, right?"
"Yes, she was recommended to me by my friend. Chu Xin's job is to help pregnant women relieve their emotions and stress. Your belly is getting bigger now, so you need to pay more attention to your mental health. Chu Xin is a professional in this area. She will stay with you before you give birth and after you have given birth and finished your confinement."
"I heard that postpartum depression is very serious. Wouldn't it make us feel more at ease if a professional could accompany you and take care of you like this?"
Jiang Mubai didn't expect Jiang Jinglan to do this for her, but after listening to Jiang Jinglan's words, Jiang Mubai felt that the other party was making a big deal out of nothing.
"Sister Jinglan, aren't you too anxious? I'm very happy every day in the old house. I have teachers to accompany me to class every day, and I also go to the garden for walks and exercise. And don't you and aunt often chat with me? Let's not spend this money. Just listening to this makes me feel that this profession is unreliable."
"No, this was recommended to me by my friend. She introduced Chu Xin to me because she had experienced it herself. Don't worry."
"Why would your friend recommend such a person to you for no reason?"
"Oh! Didn't you know she had given birth before? I went to see her immediately after I heard about it today, and then we talked about your pregnancy in the old house, so she recommended Chu Xin to me. I saw that she had already finished her confinement and didn't need Chu Xin anymore. In addition, I was embarrassed to refuse her strong recommendation, so I brought Chu Xin back to the old house."
"So that's how it is. Sister Jinglan, I really don't need someone like this to help me. Why don't you just send him away?"
"But the housekeeper has arranged for her to live here, and my mother also knows about this and has agreed to it. You can give it a try. Anyway, the old house has so many rooms and is so big. If you really don't like her, then just don't get in touch with her."
"This is also my intention, right? You should at least meet and talk with him, right? Otherwise, if you kick him out now, who knows what he will say about our Jiang family!"
Jiang Mubai also knew that this was Jiang Jinglan's intention, so after hearing her say that, he didn't say anything else.
"Well, since Chu Xin has already settled down in the old house, forget it. I'll see if it's of any use to me. Sister Jinglan, you should just kick them out. It's not good for outsiders like them to stay in the old house all the time."
"Don't worry, I know what's going on. If you find out she's useless, I'll fire her right away."
"Okay, that's fine."
"I'm glad to see you agreed. Have some more dessert. I brought it back with great difficulty."
"No, Sister Jinglan, one piece a day is enough. Save these for tomorrow. At worst, you can give them to the servants in the old house. I can't eat so much by myself and it would be a waste to leave them there."
"Okay, okay, I'll do as you say. Just pick one and I'll have someone put it away for you to eat tomorrow. I'll also have the housekeeper take the rest down for them to eat."
After the butler took these things away, Jiang Jinglan left Jiang Mubai alone sitting in the hall.
"Mu Bai, I went out early this morning and just came back now. I'm sweating a lot. I'll go back to my room and change clothes. You just sit here and wait for dinner."
"Okay, I know, Sister Jinglan, you should go back to your room and clean yourself up."
After leaving the hall, Jiang Jinglan went straight back to her room. She had originally planned to find Wen Nuohan to have a proper talk, but such an action would attract too much attention. Jiang Jinglan gave up and decided to call Wen Nuohan after returning to her room to let her pay attention to some matters.
After Wen Nuohan returned to the room and listened to the housekeeper's instructions, he closed the door and started packing his things.
"The Jiang family is so grand! They even have a special butler! Isn't this even more exaggerated than what is shown in TV dramas?"
