"Sister Jingyun, Sister Yingzi, I asked you both here today because I need your help."
"Yes, yes, yes, you're the pride of our family compound now! Just say the word, and we'll do whatever you ask! So, what do you need me to do today?"
Today was the day Shen Nian planned to have Lu Cheng's colleagues over for dinner. Shen Nian had specifically asked Lin Jingyun to come over and help her, since Lin Jingyun was definitely more experienced with these things.
As for Zhang Ying, Shen Nian certainly didn't want her doing anything since she was pregnant. However, when Zhang Ying found out, she insisted on coming over to help.
"You can't leave me out! I can't do much else, but I can at least sit here and prep the vegetables."
"Alright! Let's get started then! We'll stick to the menu we discussed before. I've already bought everything we need. I'll have to trouble you two today!"
"What trouble? Just make sure you cook up plenty of delicious food to reward us today, and we'll be happy!"
