In Lu Li's eyes, Xiang Man's wrath was of no consequence to her, so she naturally didn't care. But Chen Hongjiang couldn't tolerate any sand in his eyes. He frowned, "A small matter? Do you think gossiping and gossiping is a small matter?"
Seeing that Chen Hongjiang was really angry, Aunt Liu quickly admitted her fault. "I was wrong. I was so careless that I offended Xiang Man and disturbed the husband and wife. I was wrong. Madam, please plead for me and give me another chance. I will definitely not do it again."
After all, she had been working there for over twenty years, and Lu Li had developed feelings for her. She said, "Hong Jiang, Aunt Liu has been working in our family for so many years, and she hasn't done anything wrong. Don't bother with her."
Chen Hongjiang had known that Aunt Liu was domineering at home, and even his driver had been trying to get at him. He'd let it go, considering Aunt Liu had worked there for so many years and was related. But now, she was getting ahead of herself and bullying the family.
Chen Hongjiang said coldly, "Well, Aunt Liu has been working at home for so many years, and she is old. It's time for her to retire."
“…”
Aunt Liu was stunned. She didn't expect the matter to be so serious. Just a few words made her lose her job.
When she first came to the Chen family, because of some relatives, her salary was twice the market price. Moreover, the living here was comfortable and the food was good. She relied on her seniority and was asked to do hourly work. She felt as comfortable as a boss.
Seeing this wonderful life saying goodbye to her, she was completely panicked. Her face turned pale and she said, "I'm sorry, sir. I was wrong. I, I apologize to Xiang Man."
Then she turned to Su Man and said, "I'm sorry, Xiang Man. Oh no, I'm sorry, Miss. It's all my fault. Please don't fire me. I really can't lose this job. Please have pity on me."
Su Man took a step back in shock, holding the child. "Aunt Liu, how can you apologize to me? You said yesterday that you are my elder and I can't be rude to you. I remember it all. Please get up quickly."
Upon hearing this, Chen Hongjiang said directly, "Okay, if you have nothing else to do, go back and pack your things. I'll ask the driver to take you back later."
Aunt Liu was reluctant to leave. "Sir, considering we are relatives, please give me another chance. And Junjie, I raised him..."
But it was useless for her to say anything more. Chen Hongjiang had always been the one who made the decisions on major family matters, and Lu Li would not argue with Chen Hongjiang because of her, thus making their already scarce relationship worse.
After Aunt Liu reluctantly left, Lu Li said sarcastically, "Haha, now Xiang Man is happy. Someone is speaking up for you."
Su Man hung her head and said nothing, looking at a loss.
At this time, Chen Hongjiang said, "Sit down."
Su Man didn't sit down, but asked cautiously, "Dad, do you want to see the baby?"
Although Chen Hongjiang is usually strict with Chen Junjie, the closer they are to each other, the closer they are to each other.
Seeing that he didn't refuse, Su Man walked over to him with the child in her arms.
Mimi stared at the grandfather in front of her with curiosity with her big eyes. Because he had just spoken for her mother, Mimi was still very friendly to him. She stretched out her round hand and touched Chen Hongjiang's chin.
Chen Hongjiang tentatively held Mimi's little hand. The soft and tender touch almost melted his heart.
Su Man pretended to be surprised, "Dad, the baby likes you. Yesterday, Junjie wanted to play with him but the baby refused."
She took advantage of the situation and asked Mimi, "Baby, do you like Grandpa?"
Mimi received Suman's signal and nodded slightly.
Chen Hongjiang had worked in the business world for most of his life, but he was overjoyed by this small gesture and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay."
With this thoughtful grandson, Chen Hongjiang felt more comfortable with Su Man. He said, "The child is still young, go back and rest."
"Hey, thanks, Dad."
After Su Man left, Lu Li wanted to talk to Chen Hongjiang again, but Chen Hongjiang said he was full and went straight to the company. She could only sit alone at the dinner table and sulk.
After a while, Chen Junjie came down.
"Oh, it's already ten o'clock and you've just gotten up. If your father sees you, he'll scold you." Lu Li complained.
"My dad is back?" Chen Junjie looked around. "Where is my dad?"
Lu Li smoothed Chen Junjie's unruly hair and said, ignoring his pajamas, "Your dad has gone to the company. You should go there early after you finish your meal. If your dad knew you were not doing your job, he would scold you again."
Chen Junjie sat at the dining table, stuffed a bun into his mouth, and said loudly, "Auntie Liu, help me serve the porridge."
Lu Li rolled up her sleeves to help Chen Junjie, "No need to shout, your dad just fired Aunt Liu."
"Open? What happened to Aunt Liu?"
Lu Li recounted what had just happened, and ended indignantly, "Xiang Man is becoming increasingly restless."
Chen Junjie agreed with this. "Xiang Man has become a completely different person since she gave birth. Yesterday, she even dared to contradict me, and now she's using the child to please her father. Who knows what she'll be like in the future."
Thinking about how Chen Hongjiang had been so kind to her just now, Lu Li was furious. "She thinks she's strong enough now that she has a child and doesn't need to be so humble anymore. She's truly the daughter of a commoner, a mean person getting ahead."
Chen Junjie's eyes rolled, "Mom, I have an idea. Why not take the child away and not let her raise him? That way, she can no longer use the child as an excuse to disobey you."
Lu Li hesitated, "But now the child really can't leave her."
