Chapter 14 - Chapter 14, she really treated herself like a plate of vegetables

It turned out that when Lu Yuxi was not at home, Wang Maihe always treated everyone around her like this. She pretended to be like the real Lu family daughter.

"Sister, you're back." Wang Maihe's attitude had changed 180 degrees. She was back to being innocent and cute, and no one could tell that she was arrogant and domineering just a few seconds ago.

When Lu Yuxi saw Wang Maihe like this, she could not help but sigh. Her acting skills were really good.

Wang Maihe ran over and wanted to take the cake from Lu Yuxi's hands, but Lu Yuxi held it far away from her.

This made Wang Maihe feel a little awkward, but she still acted innocently and said,

"Sister, did you know that just now this old woman wanted to enter our house? She said that she was looking for Hu Jing, so I thought, how can the Lu family allow anyone like her to enter? So I asked the security guards to chase her away."

Luckily, Wang Maihe missed the mocking expression on Lu Yuxi's face when she said it was her house. What a joke. This was her house, Lu Yuxi's house. When did it become Wang Maihe's house? She really treated herself like a princess.

Lu Yuxi looked at Wang Maihe expressionlessly and said, "I invited Mother Wu here. If you want to chase her away, you'll have to chase me away too."

Wang Maihe did not expect Lu Yuxi to say this. She explained in a flustered manner, "Sister, you know I didn't mean that. I didn't think of it that way."

Lu Yuxi could not be bothered to listen to her explanation. She walked straight towards Mother Wu.

"Mother Wu, I'm sorry. I came back late and gave you a fright," Lu Yuxi said as she supported the old lady.

Mother Wu patted Lu Yuxi's hand and said sadly, "Little girl, she's right. I'm a grimy, old woman. It will be better for me not to enter such a beautiful house. I don't want it to get dirty."

As she said that, she wanted to pass the small basket on her hand to Lu Yuxi. "Young lady, I won't go in. You can help me pass this basket of red eggs to Hu Jing."

Lu Yuxi refused and said, "Mother Wu, don't listen to other people's nonsense. Since we are already here, let's go in. Mother Hu must really want to see you. Do you have the heart to make her unhappy?"

Lu Yuxi emphasized the word 'others' as if she was warning someone.

Lu Yuxi's offer was difficult to turn down. Mother Wu eventually agreed to go in with her.

The two ladies walked past Wang Maihe as if she was invisible. With a face full of hatred, Wang Maihe whispered every syllable of Lu Yuxi's name, "Lu-Yu-Xi."

"Miss, you're back..." before Mother Hu could finish her words, she was hugged tightly by Mother Wu.

"My good sister, did you miss me?" When Mother Wu thought of the long time they had not seen each other, tears immediately welled up in her eyes.

Mother Hu said in disbelief, "Elder sister, it's you. Why are you here? How did you know that I was here?"

The two of them hugged and cried together for quite a while. Lu Yuxi finally managed to get them to sit down.

Mother Hu grabbed onto Mother Wu and asked sobbing, "Is everything okay at home?"

Mother Wu nodded happily. "Yes, everything is fine at home. Don't worry."

From the conversation between the two ladies, Lu Yuxi knew that Mother Hu and Mother Wu were originally very close next door sisters. However, ever since Mother Hu's child passed away due to illness three years ago, Mother Hu had been staying at the Lu family home and had not returned home.

She could not bear to talk about the cold, empty house. It reminded her of countless bittersweet memories.

After listening to the troubled past of the two ladies, it was soon time for dinner.

Mother Hu naturally wanted to pull Mother Wu back to her room, saying that she had to attend to the Miss first.

However, she was stopped by Lu Yuxi. "Mother Hu, you don't have to serve us anything. You don't even have to serve us in the future."

Mother Hu was a little afraid. "Miss, are you going to fire me? I will do a good job. Don't fire me, please."

Lu Yuxi pulled Mother Hu and sat her down at one of the seats used by Wang Maihe and Wang Yun. "No, what I mean is, I don't treat you as an outsider. After all these years, not only have you taken good care of my mother, you've also taken good care of me and my father. You are like family to us."

"That's right, Mother Hu. If Lu Yuxi asks you to sit, you sit," Lu Zhengming, who came from the first floor to have dinner, agreed.

"This... I can't. I'm a servant. How can I eat with my master? This will break the rules." Mother Hu was overwhelmed by the treatment and wanted to get up.

However, she was stopped by Lu Yuxi. "Madam Hu, don't say things like 'My master.' Just sit down, please."

Mother Wu was very thankful to see her dear sister was in good hands with the Lu family. It seemed that she had worried for nothing all these years.

At this moment, Wang Yun and Wang Maihe, appeared for dinner. When they saw their regular seats were occupied and all the other seats removed by Lu Yuxi, they were so embarrassed that they did not know whether to move forward or retreat.

Actually, Lu Yuxi had already seen them approaching. She was waiting to see how the mother and daughter would respond.

As expected, Wang Yun opened her mouth and said, "There are guests at home? Maihe and I are planning to go shopping tonight. You guys can eat."

Lu Yuxi sneered. Indeed, she was amazing. The mother did not skip a beat and was able to come up with an excuse so quickly. It was for the best. Lu Yuxi did not want to see them ruin her mood tonight.

After seeing the Wang mother and daughter go upstairs to take their bags and leave, Lu Yuxi was in a great mood. She clapped her hands in the air and signalled for the dinner to begin.

On cue, the servants began to serve the first course.

Looking at the colorful dishes in front of her, Mother Wu could not help but swallow her saliva. It was too sumptuous. She had never seen so much delicious-looking food in her life.

"Here comes the highlight of the dinner. Wait, wait, wait, wait!" Lu Yuxi happily introduced the last dish in excitement.

"Put it in the middle, put it in the middle," Lu Yuxi instructed.

"Lu Yuxi, what are you doing? Why are you so excited?" Lu Zhengming looked at the tightly covered casserole and asked.

Lu Yuxi smiled proudly. She carefully lifted the lid with a pair of kitchen gloves.

She showcased the whole chicken with a few pieces of ginger and other ingredients decorating the edges.

"It smells pretty good. Looks like Chef Su found a new recipe for soup," Lu Zhengming said.

Lu Yuxi pouted. "Dad, I made this especially for Mama Hu. Your almighty Chef Su did not make this."

Hearing that it was made for her by Miss, Mother Hu's eyes were filled with tears. "Miss, don't be so nice to me. I won't leave."

Lu Yuxi picked up Mother Hu's bowl and poured some soup. "Mother Hu, don't say that."

However, Lu Zhengming was still comprehending what his daughter just said. "What? Lu Yuxi, what did you say? You cooked this? Since when did you know how to cook? How come I didn't know?"

Lu Yuxi replied, "Um...this...I learned by myself."

Lu Yuxi found a random excuse. She couldn't possibly tell him that she learned it from a scumbag in her previous life!

"Not bad, you truly are my daughter. This girl. She can go to the hall and the kitchen. She doesn't have the delicate air of a rich young lady," Lu Zhengming said proudly.

Lu Yuxi smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliment, Daddy. Is there any reward?"

"Yes, of course there is! I will ask Secretary Liu to transfer three million into your account later. If it's not enough, you can ask me again," Lu Zhengming said happily as he drank his daughter's soup.

"Thank you, Daddy!" Lu Yuxi happily calculated. All her pocket money in the past had been used to buy bags and clothes. This time, she was going to save it for a big event.
