Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg-Chapter 902: Hired a Housekeeper

Mu Qiancheng was taken aback, somewhat unable to react. He couldn’t understand why the two elders would say something like this.

However, Jiang Xue quickly understood what her parents were thinking, so she laughed and said, "Mom and Dad, you’re overthinking. Qian Cheng wouldn’t do such a thing. His money is earned legitimately. You might not know, but Qian Cheng has long been in business with friends, just hasn’t told you all along."

With Jiang Xue having said this, Mu Qiancheng finally understood the meaning behind the elders’ words and couldn’t help but feel amused. So, the elders thought his money was not earned properly.

"Is that so?" Father Jiang looked at Mu Qiancheng somewhat surprised. He truly hadn’t expected Mu Qiancheng to be collaborating with others in business. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

And by the looks of it, not only was he unaware, but it seems likely that his in-laws were unaware as well.

This kid really kept it under wraps. If Jiang Xue hadn’t mentioned it, he really wouldn’t have known. Previously, he’d thought most of the family’s money came from Jiang Xue.

"Dad, coincidentally, my friend is coming here on a business trip in the next few days. I’ll invite him over to introduce him to you."

"Sure!" Father Jiang agreed with a smile, feeling much relieved. As long as Mu Qiancheng’s money is earned properly, he would feel at ease.

Otherwise, he was genuinely afraid Mu Qiancheng might encounter trouble and end up burdening Jiang Xue.

Since Mu Qiancheng had made the offer, the two elders of the Jiang family naturally would not insist on doing things themselves. After all, who wouldn’t want to enjoy some leisure? When things can be easy, who would choose to work themselves to exhaustion?

However, thinking of this, Father Jiang couldn’t help but think of his in-laws, so he spoke to Mu Qiancheng: "Qiancheng, we’ve moved to a new house, should we also find a time to bring your parents over?"

Good fortune should be shared.

We can’t be here enjoying life while the in-laws are still toiling at home. It would make him feel uneasy.

"Dad, don’t worry. I’ve already talked to my parents. They’ll come over after the autumn harvest. Right now, there’s still farming to do at home, and they can’t leave."

"That’s true, we have to wait until the harvest is over before there’s time. Otherwise, losing out now would be such a pity."

After discussing the matter of hiring a maid, it was already late, and everyone went to rest. Shangguan Wenbin made a call to have his people inform the maid to start work the next day.

Early the next morning, just as Jiang Xue and the others were getting up, the maid reported in. Three maids—two for cleaning, and one for cooking. The cooking maid’s husband’s surname is Niu, so everyone calls her Niu.

Seeing Jiang Xue in the kitchen making breakfast, Niu immediately put on an apron and entered the kitchen to help.

"Madam, let me do it!" Niu said with a smile. She had actually arrived yesterday, but heard the homeowners hadn’t come yet, so she stayed the night at a friend’s place outside.

Jiang Xue looked at the newcomer, who appeared quite presentable and clean for someone in their forties. She smiled and said to Niu, "Today I’m planning to steam some buns, the filling is already prepared. You’ve come just in time, let’s wrap them together to speed things up a bit."

"Alright!" Niu replied with a smile, then washed her hands and got to work. Jiang Xue glanced at her, noting her agile movements and the pretty buns she wrapped. She felt reassured, chatting as she worked.

Together, they quickly wrapped thirty-some small buns and set them over the steam. In another pot, porridge was simmering.

Jiang Xue was cooking plain porridge, the kind with nothing added. Niu looked at it and said with a smile, "Madam, when I cook porridge in the future, I’ll add some ingredients. You all wouldn’t mind, right?"
