For the past few years, Wang Shufen had been far too arrogant and domineering. She hadn't used the tactics that helped her climb the social ladder in a long, long time.
'Playing the victim is far more effective than throwing a hysterical fit. Her husband used to be annoyed with her, but isn't he on her side now?' Wang Shufen gloated internally.
But on the surface, she was shedding tears for Second Master Lu.
At this, Second Master Lu's heart ached for her. "Mom, Shufen's here. I'll bring her over. She must have had a rough day."
Mrs. Lu Sr. said nothing, simply placing a piece of food on Shengsheng's plate. "The chef at the old residence is from Chuanxi. His cooking is excellent. How about we bring him over to the courtyard house next time?"
"Sounds great." Gu Shengsheng nodded. The food was indeed delicious.
Just then, Wang Shufen, who was now seated, said, "Mother, are there any other chefs you like? I can have someone hire them for you."
