"Chi Mingchu, what are you doing?"
Chi Mingchu sneered: "What? Don't I even have the right to say a few words to the servants?"
Aunt Zhang wanted to kick Aunt Lin out immediately, so she naturally supported Chi Mingchu's words and directly convicted Aunt Lin: "That woman surnamed Lin deliberately poured hot water for the young lady to drink. She just wanted to scald the young lady!"
Chi Beibei walked to Aunt Lin's side and felt relieved when he found that she was not injured.
She looked at Chi Mingchu and said firmly, "You are deliberately making things difficult for Aunt Lin!"
She thought that since she had not secretly accepted Aunt Lin's help in this life, Aunt Lin would not be implicated by her. Unexpectedly, just because he saw her giving a box of snacks to Aunt Lin, Chi Mingchu actually held a grudge against Aunt Lin.
From the looks of it, Aunt Lin's life in the Chi family may become increasingly difficult, and she may even repeat the mistakes of her previous life.
Chi Beibei clenched her hands at her sides. She had originally wanted to wait until the house was renovated before asking Aunt Lin if she was willing to leave with her, but now it seemed that the plan had to be brought forward.
"Did I do that on purpose?" Chi Mingchu pointed at the front door. "If you can't stand it, just pack up and leave!"
Xia Shuyu had just come back from outside and heard Ming Chu's shouting and cursing at the door, so she hurried in.
Looking at this familiar scene, Xia Shuyu had a headache: "What happened?"
Chi Mingchu's expression changed instantly. He walked to Xia Shuyu with a wronged look and showed her his fingertips that he had rubbed red on purpose.
"Mom, I asked Aunt Lin to pour me a glass of water, but she poured hot water and scalded me. I just asked Aunt Lin to be more careful next time, but Chi Beibei said I deliberately made things difficult for Aunt Lin."
Compared to kicking that old guy out of the Chi family, of course it is more important to please Chi Beibei.
Chi Mingchu leaned on Xia Shuyu's shoulder and sobbed softly: "Mom, I really didn't mean to embarrass Aunt Lin."
"Mingchu, show your hand to mom." Xia Shuyu knew Aunt Lin quite well. She was gentle, careful, and hardworking. It was impossible for her to deliberately burn Chi Mingchu.
After carefully examining Mingchu's hand, Xia Shuyu found no signs of burns. She was basically certain that Mingchu might want to make trouble for that damn girl Chi Beibei.
If it were in the past, she would have definitely started scolding without caring about the consequences.
But now Chi Beibei is very likely the daughter of the Sheng family, and with the lies of Mr. Xiao and the real and fake daughter, Chi Beibei herself is becoming more and more difficult to deal with. How could she possibly provoke that dead girl again?
Xia Shuyu skipped Chi Beibei, looked at Aunt Lin, and said, "Aunt Lin, be careful when pouring water next time." Since she couldn't do anything to Chi Beibei, she would let Aunt Lin take the blame.
"Okay, ma'am." Aunt Lin was not a stupid person. The fact that ma'am didn't get angry meant that she knew what was going on.
Only Aunt Zhang’s eyes widened. Is this just the way it is? The man surnamed Lin "burned" his wife's beloved daughter!
Xia Shuyu took Chi Mingchu's hand and walked upstairs: "Mingchu, let's go back to the room first. Mom will apply medicine for you."
Chi Mingchu reminded: "Mom, Beibei has wronged me."
"Beibei didn't do it on purpose. Let's go apply the medicine first."
"Mom?" Chi Mingchu couldn't believe it. Didn't they agree that it was just for show to outsiders and that he shouldn't treat Chi Beibei as his own daughter? Now Chi Beibei has bullied her, and her mother doesn't even say a word to Chi Beibei?
"Mingchu, your injury is serious." Xia Shuyu's face was full of worry, "It would be bad if it leaves a scar."
Chi Mingchu looked at Xia Shuyu suspiciously, but when he saw that the concern on her face didn't seem fake, he finally put his mind at ease.
Maybe mom is really too concerned and confused.
Chi Beibei was lucky and escaped the disaster.
Watching Xia Shuyu and Chi Mingchu disappear around the corner of the stairs, Aunt Zhang curled her lips, thinking it was a pity that she couldn't get rid of that guy named Lin.
But there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.
Accompanying Aunt Lin to sort out the debris on the ground, Chi Beibei said: "Aunt Lin, I have something important to ask you."
Chi Beibei took Aunt Lin back to the room, closed the doors and windows, and told Xueqiu with his mind: "Xueqiu, please help me keep an eye out for anyone eavesdropping outside."
"Okay, host." Snowball obeyed the order.
Aunt Lin was extremely nervous, fearing that Chi Beibei might be in some trouble.
"Miss, what do you want to ask me?"
Chi Beibei whispered: "Aunt Lin, I bought a house outside and plan to move there in the future."
Aunt Lin couldn't believe it: "Miss, is this true?"
"It's true. It's right over at Yujingtian City, a 147-square-meter duplex." Chi Beibei smiled when she mentioned her first little nest in the small world. She had already obtained the design drawings and could find a contractor to do the renovation.
"Yujingtian City?" Aunt Lin was in charge of the kitchen affairs of the Chi family. She once accidentally heard that Xia Shuyu wanted to buy a large flat in Yujingtian City for Chi Mingchu, but failed to get it. She remembered the staggering price.
“The housing prices there are very high!”
"The transportation there is very convenient, and the security measures are also good. The price is very worthwhile." What Chi Beibei likes most about Yujingtian City is that it is a real estate project of the Gu family. It is an upscale residential area, and all the residents are celebrities. The Chi family dare not cause trouble for her easily.
Aunt Lin was so shocked that her mouth opened wide. She couldn't speak for a long time and couldn't help asking, "Miss, where did you get the money?"
The husband and wife hardly ever give the young lady any money, and the young master has only had more money since he became the general manager in the past two months. The money he gives the young lady cannot be enough to buy a house in Beijing, right?
Chi Beibei explained according to what she had said before: "Aunt Lin, I won 10 million in the lottery some time ago."
As Xueqiu said, Aunt Lin did not question the authenticity of her lottery winning.
"Miss, you are so lucky." Aunt Lin was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. "You have such good grades now, and you have money. Your good days are finally coming. People can suffer for a while, but they can't suffer forever."
As she spoke, Aunt Lin began to wipe away her tears. After arriving at the Chi family, when she saw Beibei, she thought of herself as a child who was beaten and scolded by her parents who favored boys over girls, and her two children who had no chance to come into this world. She truly treats Beibei as her own daughter, and now that she sees her getting better, she feels relieved.
Chi Beibei knew Aunt Lin's past and knew that she was thinking about the past again. She hugged her distressedly, patted her back gently and comforted her: "Aunt Lin, everything will be fine."
After Aunt Lin calmed down, Chi Beibei let her go and asked, "Aunt Lin, are you willing to go with me?"
Aunt Lin's eyes lit up for a moment, then she said hesitantly: "Miss, will I be a burden to you?" She is already very old, and the young lady's life has just begun. If she stays with the young lady, she will only be a burden to her, right?
"No, Aunt Lin." Chi Beibei shook her head, "How could you be a burden to me? I have always treated you as a relative."
She used to be in poor health, and every time she was sick, Aunt Lin took care of her day and night. Xia Shuyu often didn't give her food, and it was Aunt Lin who secretly brought food to her. If it weren't for Aunt Lin, she might have died of illness long ago.
