Gu Jingze's eyes rested on the thoughtless Lin Che. He didn't reject the feeling of having a child with her but he just never thought about having a child.
Thus, he simply looked at Mu Wanqing and continued to coldly walk towards Lin Che.
Mu Wanqing smiled slightly. She was already too used to Gu Jingze's attitude, so she only smiled as she watched the two of them leave.
At home, they only discussed the New Year's celebration for a while.
Because the Gu family was huge, they had to make preparations for New Year's Eve.
Gu Jingze and Lin Che were only sitting at the side and listening. The main person in charge was still Mu Wanqing.
Lin Che saw that Mu Wanqing was really handy in settling all these things. Everything was already prepared. For a moment, she thought that indeed no one had it easy in the Gu family. Even her mother-in-law who seemed like she never did anything was very capable as well.
Lin Che said, "Mom, you're so wonderful." Gu Jingze replied, "Did you think it was easy to be the matriarch of the Gu family? All the trivial matters in the Gu family are handled by her. She's already used to it."
"Ah, I thought Mom didn't have anything to do every day."
"You thought a lot, stupid," he said and reached out to knock Lin Che's head.
Lin Che tutted. Seriously, why did he have to get physical with her for every little thing?
Very soon, Mu Wanqing caught the husband and wife's movements and walked over to say, "It's boring to just listen here. If there's nothing, you can go in first."
Lin Che looked at Mu Wanqing in admiration, "Mom, you were so great just now."
Mu Wanqing laughed and looked at Lin Che, "Mom is getting old and muddle-headed. Learn what you can now. All these matters will become yours in the future."
"Phew," Lin Che nearly spat out. Looking at Mu Wanqing, she quickly asked, "How could I do all these?"
Mu Wanqing said, "You will learn to. It's not that hard either. It's just matters regarding the maids in the house, the kitchen, and the small matters of those brothers and of some elders. But you do have to be more careful. This house key must be held in your hand." Lin Che speechlessly said, "Then it's all the more I don't know how. I'm especially bad at math. I have never passed it."
Mu Wanqing said, "Is that so... But when Jingze takes over the family business in the future, the entire Gu family will also be Jingze's. Since you're married to Jingze, the role of the house mistress will definitely be yours. It's alright. There's nothing wrong with being bad at math. When the time comes, let Jingze guide you."
"..." Lin Che suddenly felt a mountainous pressure.
She never thought that marrying Gu Jingze would entail being the house mistress of such a huge family like the Gu family.
When Lin Che went home with Gu Jingze, she tugged at his clothes in the car and whined, "I don't know. I really don't know how to do all those. Tell me, what are we going to do? If I really do all these things in the future, I'm going to die."
Gu Jingze looked speechlessly at Lin Che.
If it were other women who heard that they would become the Gu family's house mistress, they would have been so happy that they wouldn't have been able to fall asleep.
But this woman in front of him said it as if it was so scary. She wanted to avoid it.
Gu Jingze held her arm and made her stop moving. He stared into her eyes and asked, "Do you want to know what is the main role of the Gu family's house mistress?"
Lin Che immediately widened her eyes earnestly and waited for Gu Jingze to continue.
