Chapter 21 Being a nanny also requires brains!
"It seems that Chen Mengyan is really attentive. These three are very consistent with her requirements."
Su Chen lay in a chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the Huangpu River in the early morning.
After reading the information, I put my phone on the table.
"Brother~ Why is there no food at home? Even the refrigerator is empty!" Su Qingya's little head poked out from the kitchen, her mouth pouting so much that it could be used as a hook.
Su Chen was suddenly speechless, as if there was really nothing to eat at home.
"Um~ If you want to eat something, go to the supermarket in the neighborhood and buy it. If you can't carry it, ask them to deliver it to your home."
Su Qingya showed a hint of joy on her face when she heard that. She trotted to Su Chen's side and stretched out her slender white right hand, saying, "Give me money!"
"Just go there and buy whatever you want to eat. Just put it on my account!"
The supermarket in the community is specifically for serving the property owners. You can make your purchase as long as you tell your room number. As for the checkout, there will be a dedicated person to take care of it.
In fact, Su Chen could arrange everything with just one phone call, and letting Su Qingya go in person was just to give her a better shopping experience.
"Hehe~ so generous!" Su Qingya went back to the room, changed her clothes, and hurried out.
As soon as I went out, I saw Chen Mengyan and three middle-aged aunts coming out of the elevator.
"Miss Su, where are you going?" Chen Mengyan asked curiously when she saw Su Qingya in a hurry.
"There's nothing to eat at home, I'm going to the neighborhood supermarket to do some shopping!" After saying that, he walked into the elevator without waiting for Chen Mengyan's response.
Looking at the closed elevator door, Chen Mengyan glanced at the large bag of food in her hand and cursed herself for not noticing this before.
If I had noticed earlier that there was no food at Su Chen's house and arranged for someone to deliver it in time, this would have earned me more points in front of Su Chen.
Especially when Su Chen asked her to prepare the ingredients last night, she should have understood this.
Unfortunately, it's a little late now.
"Butler Chen, shall we go in?"
The nanny's question brought Chen Mengyan back to her senses from her deep thought.
After calming down, he led the three of them into the house.
"Mr. Su!" Chen Mengyan called respectfully.
"Mr. Su~" The three nannies looked at Su Chen lying on the sofa with some nervousness.
Su Chen nodded when he heard this and set his eyes on the three nannies.
They were all middle-aged women, around forty years old, and looked about the same age as Su Chen's mother, Chen Shufen.
"Since you are carefully selected by Chen Mengyan, your character must be trustworthy. Now let's see your cooking skills. Make a simple dish for me to try."
"Okay, Mr. Su."
Before the three nannies came, Chen Mengyan had told them about cooking, and they were mentally prepared.
As for the ingredients, it was the bag that Chen Mengyan brought.
After two of the nannies selected their ingredients, they quickly walked into the kitchen. Only one nanny, who looked a little haggard, stayed where she was without moving.
This made Chen Mengyan very anxious. If something went wrong, how would Su Chen look at her?
"Aunt Tang, what's wrong with you? Go and pick out the ingredients." Chen Mengyan walked up to her and whispered.
Aunt Tang did not answer after hearing this, but looked at Su Chen and asked respectfully: "Mr. Su, where are you from?"
Hearing this, Su Chen's mouth curled up slightly, "I'm from the Fog City!"
"Okay, Mr. Su!" Aunt Tang bowed to Su Chen and turned to walk towards the ingredients.
Seeing Aunt Tang's operation, Su Chen's eyes flashed with surprise, and he made a vague decision in his heart.
Although Aunt Tang seemed to have just asked Su Chen a question, she actually revealed a lot of things.
Asking where Su Chen is from is to determine Su Chen's taste. After all, the food in Shanghai is relatively sweet. As a qualified nanny, the first thing to do is to understand the taste of the host family.
Making delicious food that the host family likes is what a qualified nanny should do.
Secondly, when Chen Mengyan asked her a question, she did not answer, but looked at Su Chen, which meant that she was not Chen Mengyan's person, and at the same time, she was also expressing her loyalty to Su Chen. She would only listen to Su Chen's words and would not reveal the family's affairs to anyone.
Su Chen couldn't help but sigh that if he wanted to survive in the Magic City, besides being diligent and capable, he also had to have brains.
One step ahead, all steps ahead!
"Mr. Su, I'm sorry, I didn't know Tang Xiaomei would be like this." Chen Mengyao said, biting her lips lightly.
"It's okay~" Su Chen waved his hand calmly.
The kitchen in Su Chen's house is big enough to accommodate three nannies.
Listening to the crackling sounds coming from the kitchen from time to time, Su Chen felt that at this moment, this home had a hint of homely air.
The three nannies were all quite fast, but the other two didn't look very good at the moment.
When I saw the plate of shredded pork with fish flavor in Tang Xiaomei's hand, I knew I had made a fatal mistake. I didn't even know what flavor the host preferred.
They both thought that Su Chen was a native of Shanghai, so they made sweeter dishes.
In addition to the fish-flavored shredded pork, the other two dishes are braised pork and pork ribs and rice cake!
Su Chen looked at the three dishes in front of him. To be honest, they all looked quite good.
Although Su Chen's cooking skills are only half-baked, his mother is a great chef, so he has some understanding of dishes from what he has seen and heard.
Just as I picked up the chopsticks to taste it, I heard the sound of the door opening.
"Take everything into the kitchen, I'll clean it up myself later."
Then Su Qingya came in with three or four men in white shirts, each carrying two large bags.
"Brother~Are you tasting the food?" Su Qingya walked over curiously.
"You just happened to be back, come and try it and give me some advice."
Hearing this, Su Qingya turned around and went to the kitchen. A moment later, she came back with two small bowls and chopsticks.
He handed a bowl to Su Chen and started eating.
"Hey, this is the famous pork rib rice cake in Magic City. It's quite delicious."
"This braised pork is not bad, but it's a bit sweet."
"Hmm~ This fish-flavored pork shreds are made in the authentic Wudu style. They taste good too, very delicious!"
Seeing that Su Qingya was eating happily, Su Chen picked up his chopsticks and started eating as well.
Judging from the taste alone, the cooking skills of the three aunts are not much different.
After a moment of silence, Su Chen turned to Chen Mengyan and said, "Let Tang Xiaomei stay!"
Chen Mengyan nodded when she heard that, then walked up to the three people and told them the result. Except for Tang Xiaomei, the other two nodded somewhat discouragedly and turned to leave.
"Mr. Su, I wonder when I can go to work." Tang Xiaomei asked a little excitedly, and there was no trace of her previous haggardness.
"You can go to work now. There are still a lot of things in the kitchen waiting for you to clean up. By the way, Mengyan, ask Qingya how much he spent just now. I will transfer it to you directly later."
Tang Xiaomei walked towards the kitchen tactfully.
When Chen Mengyan heard Su Chen's question, she quickly took out her cell phone and made a call, then quickly hung up.
"Mr. Su, Miss Su spent a total of 21800!"
"Huh? Why is it so expensive? I just bought some ingredients, snacks and fruits!" When Su Qingya heard that she had spent more than 20,000 yuan, she jumped up from the sofa instantly.
Su Chen looked at Su Qingya, then at the dozen bags of things in the kitchen, took out his cell phone and passed it to Chen Mengyan.
My wrist is swollen, so I'm typing a little slowly.
The other one has been blocked and is being revised!
