Aunt Lin's departure was a pleasant surprise to Aunt Zhang. She crouched beside the stairs and pretended to wipe the railings, but in fact she listened to every word of the conversation between Aunt Lin and Xia Shuyu.
Seeing that Aunt Lin was going back to her room to rest, she naturally couldn't miss this good opportunity to ridicule her.
After all, she and that guy named Lin will be from two different worlds from now on.
Aunt Zhang leaned against the door frame of the servants' room, crossed her strong arms over her chest, and gloated, "You can't get by after offending the eldest lady. Now you can only pack up and leave in disgrace, right?"
Aunt Zhang didn't believe at all what Aunt Lin said about her niece taking her to live a peaceful life.
How could anyone be foolish enough to bring back an old aunt whom they haven't contacted for years and take good care of her? At most, they would ask Lin to help take care of the elderly and children, and kick her out when she can no longer do the work.
Aunt Lin pursed her lips into a line. Aunt Zhang loved to take advantage of others and even set her sights on the ingredients in the kitchen. Naturally, she refused. Since then, Aunt Zhang has always been resentful of her.
From now on, she won't have to worry about the relationship between them anymore.
As a colleague for many years, thinking that she might never see him again, Aunt Lin couldn't help but advise: "It's best not to touch something that's not yours."
"Is it your business?" Aunt Zhang rolled her eyes. "You think you are so noble, but now you are just like a stray dog."
Aunt Lin ignored her and continued to pack her things: "If you don't want to listen, forget it."
If Aunt Zhang doesn't change this bad habit, she will be kicked out of the house by her mistress sooner or later, or even sent to the police station.
"Tsk, so boring." No matter what she said, this Lin man didn't feel sad or angry at all. Aunt Zhang left with the rag.
Aunt Lin didn't have much stuff, so she packed it up quickly.
When she arrived at the Chi family's gate with her luggage bag, she happened to see Lao Yi, the chef of Yipinzhai, who came to replace her.
He was a middle-aged man with a bald head. He looked honest and simple. He smiled and nodded to Aunt Lin. Aunt Lin thought that he would not help Aunt Zhang steal things from the kitchen.
Just as he was about to step forward to say something, Butler Liu waved his hand, as if to drive away the plague god: "Go away, you are no longer a servant of the Chi family. Madam has given you a lot of pension money, and she has done her best for you."
Butler Liu was Aunt Lin's boss and they had worked together for more than ten years. Unexpectedly, they became enemies as soon as he left.
Aunt Lin grabbed the handle of the luggage bag and said, "I'm leaving now."
Butler Liu watched Aunt Lin walk straight towards the street outside the door, a cold light flashing in his eyes. This old woman had always made his eldest daughter unhappy, and she had dared to talk back to the mistress in the morning. It was a good thing for her to get away with it.
Old Yi was originally happy about the generous salary, but after seeing the attitude of housekeeper Liu towards the middle-aged woman, he was frightened and couldn't help asking, "What is this?"
Butler Liu immediately put on a smile and explained, "She was the cook before. Now she is taken back by her family to live in her old age. The mistress is kind and gave her a pension."
"Madam is such a good person." Old Yi smiled naively and couldn't help but feel more favorable towards his future host.
Aunt Lin walked a long way before she stopped, turned around and took a deep look at the Chi family where she had lived for more than ten years.
She whispered, "Goodbye."
Having said that, Aunt Lin resolutely walked down the mountain and took a taxi straight to the address provided by Chi Beibei.
