Chapter 225: Became A Marriage Consultant
Today’s lunch was dumplings I made last night, with taro and pork filling.
【System 009: Congratulations on completing LV2 mission: Collect the wishes of two small animals, and receive rewards: Lizard Dictionary, 50 points, 500,000 cash.】
Jiang Yuan hooked the corner of her lips, picked up a dumpling, dipped it in vinegar, and said, “Mom, look for what kind of auntie to help out.”
She chewed the dumpling and continued, “Or maybe hire two? One to cook, one for housework, or have them take turns, one week each.”
Hearing this, Deng Rui said in surprise, “Hire two? Won’t that be too extravagant?”
“No,” Jiang Yuan took a tissue and wiped her mouth, “Mom, asking for two aunties to help is on the low side for living in East Bank Villa. Other families start with five.”
Deng Rui’s eyes widened, and she held up five fingers, “Five? How much would that cost!”
Jiang Yuan smiled, “People who live here aren’t short on money.”
If she had more money now, she’d even want to hire an extra driver to take Zhan Zhan and Momo to and from school.
“The expenses for a villa are so high, maybe just hire one auntie, and Mom and I can take turns doing things.” Deng Rui really couldn’t imagine.
“No way,” Jiang Yuan said helplessly, “Don’t worry about the money, I’ll pay the salaries for two aunties. You just need to enjoy yourself and be happy every day.”
Deng Rui showed a gratified smile on her face, “Got it, got it.”
Jiang Yuan glanced at the date on her phone, “Tomorrow is Saturday, should I ask my sister to go buy a car?”
“Okay,” Deng Rui nodded, then thought and asked, “What about you, do you want to get a new car?”
“I’ll see if there’s one I like tomorrow.” Jiang Yuan actually had this thought, “My current car is a bit of a gas guzzler.”
Moreover, she didn’t like red anymore.
“Alright,” Deng Rui said, “You guys buy a car tomorrow, and I’ll sponsor 50,000 for each of you.”
Jiang Yuan slightly raised her eyebrow, raised her hand and made a heart gesture, “Thank you, beautiful and generous Ms. Deng, I love you.”
She picked up her phone, tapping as she spoke, “I need to tell my sister this good news.”
After chatting on WeChat, Jiang Yuan clicked into Douyin and saw the message to Meile High-End Furniture was still unread.
She then opened the private messages from people she didn’t follow, and the first thing she saw was a message from Lychee Soda.
【Streamer, I’m so sorry, I really didn’t know who else to turn to…】
【I found some special items in that man’s room.】
【I’m so helpless, what should I do?】
【I’m sorry to bother you.】
Jiang Yuan pursed her lips, her slender eyebrows slowly furrowing.
Deng Rui finished tidying the dishes and asked casually, “What are you looking at, with such a frown?”
“Mom, I feel like I’ve become a relationship consultant.” Jiang Yuan teased herself.
Deng Rui: “What relationship consultant?”
Jiang Yuan explained, “My stream’s description says I’m good at communicating with animals, but in the end, I’m telling people their partner cheated.”
“Yes,” Deng Rui also frowned, worrying, “Seeing so many of these things, will it make you scared of marriage?”
Jiang Yuan: “…”
Is that the point?
She mumbled softly, “I don’t plan on getting married anyway.”
“What did you say?” Deng Rui’s tone suddenly rose.
Jiang Yuan stuck out her tongue and smiled, “Nothing, I didn’t say anything.”
She lowered her eyes and sent a few pieces of advice to Lychee Soda, then started looking through other private messages.
Most of them were witty remarks in private chats. Jiang Yuan looked for a few minutes before putting down her phone.
She walked to the front yard, and several fur babies immediately ran towards her: Blueberry, Xixi, Xiao Bai, Pipi, and Pudding the Ragdoll Cat who dared to fight with Blueberry.
Jiang Yuan looked up at the distance, where Dan Zai and the others were wagging their tails at her but hadn’t come over.
She shouted, “Come over, let’s play together.”
Dan Zai, Tu Tu, and a few other dogs looked at each other, then ran happily towards her.
“Want to play frisbee?” Jiang Yuan asked them with a smile, “Whoever catches the most can get a reward of small biscuits.”
Hearing this, the fur babies excitedly circled around her.
Although the dogs were faster than the cats, Jiang Yuan simply wanted to play with them for a while. Regardless of winning or losing, everyone would eventually get small biscuits.
“Ready, set—” Jiang Yuan lined up the fur babies. Seeing they were all ready to sprint, she smiled and shouted, “Go!”
As the words fell, she threw the frisbee in her hand.
The brindle dog Longlong shot out like a leopard, leaving the other fur babies behind. With a few swift movements, he snatched the frisbee falling from mid-air and returned.
Seeing this, Blueberry, who was extremely competitive, bared its teeth at Longlong, “Damn it, I’ll definitely be first next round!”
Jiang Yuan’s eyes curved into a smile, “Cheer up!”
Blueberry immediately showed off, “Did you hear that? Yuan Yuan is cheering me on!”
Dan Zai and the others felt very envious.
Only the tsundere Pudding slowly retorted, “Narcissist, Yuan Yuan wasn’t cheering for Blueberry!”
“You!” Blueberry glared at it, “You talk too much!”
Pudding: “I’m telling the truth!”
Blueberry snorted, “I can’t be bothered with you!”
Jiang Yuan said with a laugh, “Get ready, the second round is about to start.”
After playing four rounds consecutively, Blueberry, Xixi, and Pudding, the three cats, didn’t catch any frisbees.
Blueberry was dejected, “How could this happen!”
Xixi comforted it, “Sister Blueberry, maybe it’s because we’re small and run slower.”
Xiao Bai also barked, “Sister Blueberry, it’s okay, look, Pipi and I didn’t win either.”
Xiao Bai now weighed twenty-four pounds, much larger than Blueberry and Xixi. Pipi was a super-large Bichon Frise weighing twenty pounds, but in terms of speed, both of them were far inferior to the Five Black Dog, the Brindle Dog, and the Four-eyed Ironclad Golden.
Blueberry sighed, “Thank you, I wasn’t comforted at all.”
“Alright, we’ll play again next time.” Jiang Yuan played five rounds with them and announced the end of the game, “Babies who didn’t win, cheer up next time~”
Xiao Bai grinned, sticking out its pink tongue, “Even though I didn’t win, Yuan Yuan called me baby!”
“I’m Yuan Yuan’s baby too!” Pipi was also very excited.
The other dogs were also secretly happy.
Blueberry, who had strong possessiveness, looked at Jiang Yuan resentfully, “You’re such a fickle person.”
Jiang Yuan slightly raised an eyebrow, “How am I fickle? I just want to give the babies who are good to me a home.”
She glanced at the time on her phone, it was almost three o’clock.
Jiang Yuan returned to the living room and saw Deng Rui lying on the sofa watching videos. She walked over and asked, “Mom, do you want to eat out tonight? We can go to the supermarket afterwards.”
Deng Rui immediately sat up, “Okay.”
After dinner and a trip to the supermarket, it was almost nine o’clock when they got home.
Now that the house had multiple bathrooms, there was no need to queue for showers.
Jiang Yuan took a shower and then went to the study to stream. As soon as she started, many netizens sent bullet comments saying she was late.
【Wuwuwu, I waited for you all night】
【Streamer, you’re late!】
【You’re finally here!!!】
【I almost fell asleep waiting for you】
Jiang Yuan smiled guiltily, “Sorry, everyone, for keeping you waiting. I forgot to tell you the broadcast time for tonight this afternoon.”
