”Madam, breakfast is ready. When are you planning to eat?”
”Breakfast?” Jane said while looking at Zhang Ma in shock.
”Yes, Mr. Gu had instructed me to prepare breakfast for you before you went to work, so that you can eat once you wake up.” Zhang Ma said politely to Jane.
Jane scratched her hair in disbelief, then giggled and said, ”Then let's do it now, I'm going to eat now, I still need to go to work later.”
After saying that, Jane hastily sat down on a chair at the dining table, waiting for her meal.
Jane opened her mouth wide and watched the servants bring me breakfast one by one.
”Wow, Mrs Zhang, it's just breakfast, there's no need to go through all this trouble!” This is too much. ” Jane said in shock as she looked at the dishes on the table.
”Take your time, ma'am. This was all instructed by Mr. Gu. ”
”Then this is too much. Next time, don't cook so much, it will be a waste even if you can't eat it. Next time, heat up a few slices of bread and drink a cup of milk. This kind of cream pudding, this kind …” you don't have to go up there. ” Jane said to Mrs Zhang with a smile.
Zhang Ma nodded her head awkwardly. Indeed, if it weren't for Gu Chen's generous instructions, who would be willing to spend so much time making such a big table of breakfast?
As soon as she took a bite, she felt that the taste of the dish suited her. Suddenly, she saw Mrs. Zhang standing next to her, and her heart softened. She wasn't used to standing by her side and watching him eat while she was eating.
”Mrs Zhang, why don't you sit down and eat together with us?” Jane was very polite as she pointed to the chair in front of her. She signaled Zhang Mom to sit in front of her and have breakfast with her.
It was this action that scared Mrs Zhang so much that her face turned pale. She hurriedly waved her hand and said, ”Aiyo, Madam. We servants are not allowed to eat with you. This is our rule.”
”Isn't the rule set by humans? Just sit down and eat with me. Otherwise, all these dishes will be emptied out even if you can't finish them all. How wasteful.”
”That won't do, ma'am, but thank you very much for being so polite to a servant like us.” She had been a servant for so many years, but this was the first time that an employer had asked her to sit and eat at the same table as them.
”Mom Zhang, I'll tell you the truth, this lady is actually the same as you. There aren't any servants, or anything like that, we have to be like friends. Although you are doing domestic work for us, this is also your job, so, ah, people don't have any difference in status. Come on, let's eat together, otherwise, I won't be interested.” Maybe it was because Jane's attitude of being close to the common people made her feel warm, so she sat down embarrassedly.
Mama Zhang sat down opposite to Ji Yunshu, while Jane started to eat her meal with a smile on her face.
”Mrs Zhang, try this dish. I think it's quite delicious.”
”Ai!” ”Alright.” After saying that, Zhang Ma picked up a piece of smooth and tender tofu and put it in her mouth.
It really was delicious. The instant melting sensation in her mouth made a trace of a smile surface on her face.
”Delicious, this is really quite delicious.”
”It's delicious. I'll have the chef cook cook this again tomorrow. Don't cook anything else, otherwise, you won't be able to finish it all.” As she spoke, she smiled at Mrs Zhang.
Mrs Zhang also smiled and then embarrassedly said, ”Madam, you're such a good person. No wonder Mr Gu chose you as his wife. He's really blessed.”
These words made Jane laugh out loud. Hearing Zhang Ma's words, she had a strange feeling of joy in her heart.
”Thank you, Mrs Zhang. I feel the same way. I wonder if Gu Chen will treasure me.” At this moment, she had completely forgotten that her relationship with Gu Chen was a mere contract.
She had yet to develop herself, but she actually thought of herself as Gu Chen's real wife.
”Mr. Gu will definitely treat you well. It's just like how Mr. Gu told us to cook these meals for him. He's telling us every day not to disturb you.” Zhang Ma said with a smile.
When Jane heard this, she was very happy. There was an indescribable sense of joy in her heart.
If he could spend the rest of his life with Gu Chen just like that, it might be a good choice.
As she thought of this, Jane unconsciously laughed out loud. Seeing Jane's blissful smile, Mrs Zhang was also very happy in her heart.
After all, in this era, it was truly fortunate to meet such an employer.
In the other Wealthy Classes, it was very possible that just because of an action or an unintentional glance, they would expel you and end your career as a family member.
She didn't have the slightest bit of arrogance or kindness to be this Mrs. Gu, and now Mrs. Zhang genuinely liked this Jane. No matter what happened in the future, she would try her best to help her, do whatever she could for her, and do whatever she could for her.
After breakfast, Jane went to Lu Zhan Ming's company very early in the morning.
Jian Chu, who had not been to work for several days, came here feeling very embarrassed. He wondered if he should go meet with the head of their department, or directly meet Lu Zhan Ming.
