Chapter 15: A country bumpkin has only graduated from elementary school, so how can he speak English?

In the maid's room.

After Uncle Fu left, the maids who had just been scolded immediately became commotion.

"When did we have a young lady at home? Why didn't I know?"

"I don't know!"

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, knowing nothing about the hostess who had suddenly moved in.

Female nurse Zhu Bixia was the only one who knew better: "I heard from Uncle Fu that she had been living in the mainland before and just arrived in Xiangjiang a few days ago."

When she said this, the servants who had stayed in the Chen family's old house remembered:

"I know where that young lady is from! Previously, Mr. Chen had arranged a baby marriage for the young master in the mainland. I heard that the conditions were not very good. They were in a remote mountain village below Sojiang City."

"Jiang City? That place is very poor. The poor mountains and rivers lead to unruly people." A servant who came from the mainland in the early years recalled.

When they heard that Jiang City was poor and everyone had an impression of the backwardness of the mainland, they all shook their heads and sighed, saying that it was not worth it for Chen Yanbei.

"Hey, I really didn't expect that the old man would still be willing to recognize this marriage. Isn't this a disgrace to the young master? But even if the old man accepts it, the young master's character may not be so easy to obey."

"Yes, although the young master is in poor health, he is still a member of the Chen family. What kind of wife can't be found? Why marry someone with such poor conditions? If the news spreads, others will laugh to death."

"Hey, who says it's not the case? If the country bumpkins from China come here, they can just move in. Why do they ask us to clean it up?"

"Besides, the young master has limited legs and feet and can't go downstairs. Mopping the floor downstairs is useless."

The maid Ali lowered her mouth and rubbed the rag in her hand with resentment in her eyes.

She had been too lazy to clean the floor these past few days, and today Uncle Fu caught her and scolded her in front of a room full of servants, with a very embarrassed expression on her face.

Thinking of Uncle Fu's instructions to them to ask Mistress about buying things before he left, she suddenly rolled her eyes and looked at the dark-skinned Filipino maid beside her.

Speaking in very slow Cantonese, he said: "Sister An, go up and ask the young lady for a shopping list later and see what is missing. Tomorrow A Fang and I are going to the department store in Sham Shui Po."

"Roar." The Filipino servant didn't have so many twists and turns in his mind, so he put a pen and paper in his hand and left the servant's room.

She can understand Cantonese but only speaks simple words. She communicates in English every day, and even the servants at home know some simple English words.

After she left, Ali gathered the remaining maids together and said proudly: "Let's go and watch the excitement!"

"Let's see how good our mainland young lady's English is!"

When she said this, everyone suddenly reacted, with expressions of watching the show on their faces: "Hey Ali, you are so bad!"

Mainland country bumpkins have only graduated from elementary school. How can they speak English?

Even Cantonese is terrible!

But their eldest young master came back from studying abroad, often interacted with foreigners, and his English skills were excellent.

When the time comes, the country bumpkin cannot understand the Filipino maid's English and makes a fool of himself in front of the young master...

Gee, I really can’t wait to see that scene!

Several maids and caregivers looked at each other, grabbed cleaning tools one after another, and ran towards the second floor.

Since Uncle Fu asked them to clean up, the second floor cannot be ignored.

After a while, the second floor of the villa became lively.

Some wipe the floor with rags, dust antique ornaments with feather dusters, and ventilate windows...

But without exception, their ears and eyes were fixed on Chen Yanbei's room.
