"how?"
"It's okay, just asking."
"There are special servants in charge, but Wen Yin will keep an eye on it."
It turned out to be her.
"Is my cousin the housekeeper now?"
"Well, my aunt is impatient with these trivial matters, and my aunt is not helpful."
Wen Xi frowned slightly.
"What's the problem?"
"When I left that day, I happened to see the vegetables spilling from the basket of the servant who was carrying the offering, and I thought I smelled olive oil."
"olive oil?"
"Yes, brother, you should know that uncle was severely allergic to this smell and never liked it when he was alive."
Wen Yuan frowned, looking somewhat displeased: "Maybe the people below were careless, and Wen Yin was so busy that she didn't notice. I'll go and tell them to pay attention next time."
After saying that, he immediately walked towards the kitchen.
Wen Xi watched him leave without saying anything else.
It was said that Wen Yin was the most filial to her uncle among the younger generations in the family. But now it seemed that she wasn't that filial. She even forgot her uncle's taboos...
-
On the viaduct.
"Aunt, it's getting late. We should go back, otherwise grandpa and grandma will worry." Wen Yin patiently persuaded the person sitting in the passenger seat while driving.
"Why are you going back? Don't you see who's sitting in my house? They're so heartless, I find it filthy just to breathe the same air as them!"
"Auntie...we're all family, why bother? What happened back then is all in the past."
"What's in the past? I'm still suffering!" Wen Chenghui said excitedly, "If it weren't for that evil-minded Wen Chengyi, would my fiancé break up with me? His children are so grown up now, and I'm still alone at such an old age! Do you know what it means to suffer? I am!"
"aunt……"
"I won't let him go. Just wait and see! He hurt me like this and you still want your family to live in harmony? Dream on!"
"Forget it, auntie. When will the cycle of revenge ever end? It's better to just laugh it off. After all, we are still family."
"Hey, Wen Yin, stop pretending to be nice in front of me." Wen Chenghui brushed her hair off her forehead and said nonchalantly, "It's true that the old man favored you in the past, but now that Wen Chengyi's family is back, you're an illegitimate daughter, and it's unclear whether this favoritism can be maintained. Don't you have any thoughts in your mind?"
Illegitimate daughter...
Wen Yin's heart tightened.
She hadn't been called that in a long time.
Ever since she came to power, not to mention the servants, even the celebrities in the circle seemed to have forgotten her background and were trying to fawn over her like crazy. Only Wen Chenghui still looked down on her and dared to humiliate her in person without any scruples.
Wen Yin's fingers, gripping the steering wheel tightly, were turning pale blue.
She'd paid an untold price to shake off this reputation... So, she couldn't shake it off? This mark she'd been born with?
After a moment's silence, she lowered her voice and spoke cautiously, "What are you talking about, aunt? Grandpa has always treated everyone equally and loves you very much. There's no such thing as partiality."
"Come on, if I don't care about you, I'll let you be the head of the family?"
"He knows that you, Auntie, hate these trivial matters the most, and you have enough things to deal with outside, so he's worried that you'll be tired."
"Hey, that's what you said to the old man when you asked for the housekeeper's power, right?"
Wen Yin was shocked and shook her head quickly, looking very innocent: "No, aunt, I really don't believe you. How dare a junior like me influence the decision of the elders? If you are willing to be the housekeeper, I can step down immediately, as long as you ask."
