Cutie Delivered, Please Sign for it-Chapter 79 - Its Moms Fault Ive Dragged You Down

In these twenty-one years, Zhu Zhizhou had transformed from a dashing, flamboyant man into a fat, worldly old man.

And she, once a celebrity in the culinary world, had fallen to her current state of exhaustion and defeat as the fourth mistress of the Zhu family.

Zhu Shaofen, her son, and even Wei Ruoman and Fang Caiping had trampled on her head and made her life miserable on more than one occasion. The difference was that previously, they had done so discreetly. But this time, they had humiliated her openly.

The public disgrace she felt was as if she had been stripped naked in the middle of the road.

The little affection she had left for Zhu Zhizhou was also worn away by the constant torment of Zhu Shaofen and his colleagues.

Perhaps, as her daughter suggested, she should think carefully about what to do next. Staying here truly had no meaning anymore.

“Ying’er, I’ll listen to you. But, before you get married, I’ll continue to live here. Otherwise, if it raises their suspicion and ruins your marriage with the Yan Family, that wouldn’t be good.”

Although she was foolish and weak, she knew that the Young Master Yan was her and her daughters’ only lifeline. Without Young Master Yan as her son-in-law, let alone leaving the Zhu Family, her daughters’ futures would also be in great danger.

For once, Chen Jing showed a rare moment of cleverness, insisting on staying at the Zhu family until Zhu Qianying was married. While this decision pained Zhu Qianying, she couldn’t think of a better solution. And so, she decided to let Mom sleep in Xiao Yu’s bedroom for the time being. As for Mom’s ravaged bedroom, she decided to leave it as it was, serving as a constant reminder for Mom not to trust or pine for Zhu Zhizhou anymore.

As for Zhu Shaofen’s family, Zhu Qianying told Mom to hide from them as much as she could, and to ignore them when hiding wasn’t possible.

After discussing throughout the night, the mother-daughter duo decided to put up with the Zhu family for a little over a month. Once Zhu Qianying was married, they would rescue Chen Jing from her hardships.

After much difficulty, Zhu Qianying managed to comfort Mom, went into the kitchen to find some food to fill her stomach, took a bath, and went to bed. Before going to sleep, she set the alarm clock to five in the morning.

Early the next morning, Zhu Qianying was woken up by the shrill alarm. Cursing under her breath, she pulled her quilt and tried to go back to sleep.

Suddenly, she remembered that she had to go to the Yan family to prepare breakfast for a certain Eldest Young Master Yan. Grumbling, she got out of bed, cleaned herself up, and walked out the door right on time.

The streets were deserted with scarce traffic in the early morning. The driver drove at high speed and by the time Zhu Qianying reached the kitchen of the Yan family, it wasn’t even six o’clock yet.

“Ying’er, have a hot cocoa before you start.”

Uncle Hai, feeling sorry for Zhu Qianying, had ordered someone to prepare a cup of hot cocoa in advance and now handed it to her.

Zhu Qianying thanked him and took a big sip of the cocoa.

“Ying’er, the young master’s temper… it’s a bit much. Please bear with him a bit,” Uncle Hai was caught in a difficult position.

Although he knew the young master was out of line, he didn’t have the guts to admonish him.

And although he pitied Zhu Qianying, he couldn’t help her.

“Uncle Hai, I understand.”

It was just a spoiled young master, she knew!

“Uncle Hai, does Young Master Yan like dumplings?”

There wasn’t much she could make in several dozens of minutes. Of course, the fastest option would be to toast a few slices of bread and fry two eggs or cook a bowl of noodles with two fried eggs.

But with Young Master Yan being so picky, a casual breakfast like this definitely didn’t stand a chance.

“Huh, he does, but… don’t you think it’s a bit rushed?”

Zhu Qianying didn’t explain much. She took out some flour and started kneading the dough. Then, she took out some meat and vegetables from the refrigerator and began making the filling.

Seeing her busy with her work without sparing time for him, Uncle Hai quietly slipped out.

Walking into the living room, he ran into Young Master Yan who was out for a jog in his sportswear.

“Young Master, morning.”

“Has she arrived?” Master Yan asked knowingly. As soon as he descended the stairs, he had noticed Zhu Qianying’s coat and backpack on the cabinet.

“Oh, she arrived awhile ago. Would Young Master Yan like to go see her?”

Without paying heed to Hai, Young Master Yan hit the road.

The coolness of November filled the morning air, strands of dew hung from the tender leaves, sparkling in the morning sun.

Young Master Yan came back with a cheerful mood after jogging a big circle in the garden, and went down refreshed after taking a shower.

This time, he happened to cross paths with Zhu Qianying who was wearing an apron.

“Young Master Yan, good morning.”

Zhu Qianying was dutifully ladling porridge for him. On the dining table, there were two plates of fried dumplings.

“Young Master Yan, this is Beef and Egg Congee. I’ll serve you a small bowl first. See if you like it.”

Narrating her actions, she placed the bowl of porridge in front of Young Master Yan.

He glanced at the dining table; just like before, only one set of chopsticks and a bowl were laid out.

“Aren’t you eating?” The complexion on his face darkened perceptibly.

Uncle Hai who was standing docked immediately recalled the incident from last night and quickly interjected, “She will eat with you, of course. I just forgot to prepare her chopsticks and bowl.”

Zhu Qianying didn’t know that the fruits of her labor from the previous night, which had taken her over an hour to prepare, had all ended up in the servants’ stomachs just because a certain Master had casually commanded, “Remove it.”

After serving Young Master Yan the porridge, she turned around to fetch some chili sauce and vinegar from the cabinet behind her and poured some of both onto the seasoning plate.

“I’ve made two types of dumplings, one with Cabbage and Meat and the other with Mushroom and Meat fillings. Try them and see which one you like better.”

Initially, Zhu Qianying planned to make celery and meat dumplings, but after Uncle Hai mentioned that Young Master Yan didn’t eat any vegetables with a strange taste, she changed it to Cabbage and Meat dumplings.
