Chapter 161 is definitely a birthday present for him.
Chapter 161 is definitely a birthday present for him.
After thinking for a moment, Aunt Wang said, "Probably! The young master might have a bit of OCD. Luckily, Dr. Zhao stewed those two chickens, otherwise he would have had to wear his work clothes too."
"I'll make Xiaoxiaojia an outfit that's similar to ours in a little while."
Zhang Xinru was speechless. "What's wrong with you? You can't even spare a cat."
Why don't you put work clothes on all those crabs?
Upstairs, Fu Xiaochen had been waiting in the bedroom for ages, but Ye Jiajia hadn't reacted at all.
"Cough cough..."
Fu Xiaochen coughed twice on purpose to attract the other party's attention.
Is that woman shy? She's being all coy about giving me a gift; it's not like her at all.
Ye Jiajia looked over and said, "Is your throat sore? I'll have Zhang Ma pour you a glass of honey water to soothe it."
"Ok!"
Fu Xiaochen suppressed his excitement and nodded slightly. Damn woman, she even made Zhang Ma come up to witness the delivery of something to him. How impatient she is!
I guess he's a little nervous since it's his first time giving a gift! I wonder how he'll react when he receives it—surprised, indifferent, or completely bewildered?
"Young Master? Young Master? The honey water is here!"
Zhang Xinru had called out to Fu Xiaochen several times, but he didn't react at all.
Are you going to drink or not? Are you thinking of some reason to start a fight?
Should she invite Wang Ma up to share the burden?
Fu Xiaochen snapped out of his daze, calmly took the honey water from Zhang Ma's hand, and took a small sip.
"The honey tastes a little sweet!"
Ye Jiajia: "..."
Zhang Xinru: "..."
Do you want to hear what you're saying?! Want to eat bees without worrying about pricking your mouth?
Zhang Xinru thought she should leave first, lest the argument escalate and the anger be transferred to her.
"Um, young master, I'll go down now. Call me if you need anything!"
Just as she reached the door, Fu Xiaochen called out to her.
"Wait, you don't need to go down. Just stay at the door and keep watch."
Zhang Xinru paused. Something was wrong, very wrong. What did he mean by "watching from the doorway"? Could it be that he knew about her using the black card?
She didn't spend much money! She usually buys such expensive things for the female lead, so what's wrong with buying some cat food for her cat today?
Ye Jiajia also felt that Fu Xiaochen was acting strangely today. Could it be that he hadn't woken up yet? Or had he been driven crazy by the noise from Dr. Zhao's two chickens?
The three of them just stared at each other.
Wang Ma carried Xiao Xiao Jia up and looked at Zhang Ma with her eyes, asking if they were arguing inside.
Xiao Xiaojia: "Meow..."
Zhang Xinru shook her head, indicating that they hadn't argued; they were probably just brewing something.
Xiao Xiaojia: "Meow..."
Fu Xiaochen was getting impatient and reminded Ye Jiajia, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Xiao Xiaojia: "Meow..."
Ye Jiajia thought for a moment, "There's something I need to tell you..."
Fu Xiaochen raised his eyebrows, beckoned to Zhang Ma, and asked her to record a video to document the scene.
For the first time, Zhang Xinru couldn't figure out what Fu Xiaochen was thinking. What exactly was he trying to do?
With a hint of doubt, he took out his phone and pointed the camera at them. "Alright, young master."
Wang Ma and Xiao Xiaojia also stared wide-eyed at the person in the bedroom.
Fu Xiaochen looked at Ye Jiajia seriously, "We can begin."
Ye Jiajia uttered a few dry words, "You just said that bees are a little sweet, but I want to correct you. It's not bees, it's honey."
"..."
Wang Ma chuckled and quickly covered Xiao Xiaojia's mouth.
Little Jia looked innocently at Wang Ma; it hadn't meowed just now!
Fu Xiaochen ordered, "Zhang Ma, delete this part and start over."
Then he continued to look at Ye Jiajia with anticipation.
Ye Jiajia repeated what she had just said.
Fu Xiaochen: "..."
"Zhang Ma, delete it and start over."
That dead woman, that's enough. Why all the buildup for a simple gift?
After many takes, Ye Jiajia completely lost her patience.
"Fu Xiaochen, what exactly are you trying to do? I'm just reminding you that you said the wrong thing!"
"I didn't expect you to be so petty, making me repeat this sentence over and over again. Is it fun to play tricks on me?"
Zhang Xinru just wanted to throw her phone at Fu Xiaochen's face and keep deleting, deleting, deleting. Was he out of his mind?
I've seen him make a fool of himself before, why is he being so petty this time?
Fu Xiaochen was also annoyed. Why hadn't that damned woman said she was going to give it to him yet? Wasn't it a gift she bought for him?
Or should we wait until his birthday to give it to him?
By the way, his birthday seems to be coming up soon, so this must be a birthday present for him.
I never expected this woman to know his birthday! She must have asked the housekeeper.
The housekeeper is the same; he tells everyone everything. Didn't he say he didn't like celebrating his birthday?
Since this woman wants to surprise him, let's have a small birthday dinner this time!
Butler: It wasn't me, I didn't say anything.
Fu Xiaochen returned to normal, finished lunch with Ye Jiajia, and gave a few instructions to the housekeeper before leaving.
"Butler, since you want to throw me a birthday party, please keep it simple!"
The butler nodded, bewildered. "Yes, young master."
It's obvious that the young master wants to celebrate his birthday but is too embarrassed to say it directly. Time is running out, so he needs to prepare in advance.
The housekeeper gathered all the servants together and held a meeting for them.
This includes Zhang Xinru and Wang Ma.
"What's going on? Why are we having a meeting? Wang Ma, do you know anything about this?"
Aunt Wang shook her head. "I don't know. We haven't had any meetings before! Could it be that Miss Jiajia is taking birth control pills again?"
Zhang Xinru pouted, "How could that be? I didn't buy her any medicine this time, and the young master has already left!"
The butler quickly explained the situation, "Let me just say a few words. The young master's birthday is in two weeks, so we need to start preparing early."
The servants were talking amongst themselves.
"Young Master is having a birthday party!"
"I've been with the Fu family for so long, and I've never seen the young master celebrate his birthday!"
"It's young master's birthday, the banquet must be especially grand!"
"..."
The butler's authoritative voice interrupted them, "Quiet down, both of you!"
The entire hall fell silent instantly!
The butler's sharp gaze swept over everyone present as he continued.
"Young Master's birthday is of utmost importance; we absolutely cannot afford to be negligent or careless in the slightest!"
"All preparations must be started immediately without delay! Whether it's gifts, banquets, or decorations, everything must be done to perfection."
"Furthermore, environmental hygiene is equally important! Every corner must be spotless, not even a speck of dust can be overlooked! Anyone who dares to be lazy or perfunctory will face my wrath! Do you understand?"
Everyone: "Understood."
Zhang Xinru: "Huh?"
Wang Ma: "Hmm?"
The two exchanged a glance, each trying to find an excuse to avoid cleaning.
"I serve the young master, I shouldn't need to do these things, right?"
"I'm here to serve Miss Jiajia, so I probably don't need to do these things anymore, right?"
The butler immediately dropped a bombshell: "Regardless of which area you were in charge of before, this time it must all be for the young master's birthday. No one can stand aside."
