Standing outside the door was Aunt Sun, who served Father Meng. In her hand was a light blue thermos. She should have fetched hot water not long ago. The moment Aunt Sun saw Meng Nianchu, a big smile spread across her face.
Father Meng, on the other hand, looked extremely angry. He excitedly stood up from the stool and then pointed the chopsticks in his hand directly at Aunt Sun across from him.
Aunt Sun was startled. She never expected Father Meng to act like this. She quickly took a step backward and shouted at the top of her voice, "Hey, hey, hey, Miss Meng, your father, your father is going crazy again."
Looking at this strange scene in front of her, although Meng Nianchu felt something was off, she didn't think too much about it. So at this moment, of course, Meng Nianchu first tried to stop her father.
Father Meng kept trying to poke Aunt Sun with the chopsticks in his hand, which made Aunt Sun nervous. But on the surface, she still pretended to be very calm. "Miss Meng, recently Father Meng seems to have some prejudice against me. Once he sees me, he gets angry and wants to hurt me."
Hearing what Aunt Sun said, Meng Nianchu frowned. Normally, Father Meng in front of her wouldn't act like this. He was a kind - hearted man. Even though he was sick now, he never gave up on himself.
But according to what Aunt Sun said, Father Meng might really have some prejudice against her. But where this prejudice came from, she had to find out.
"I think my father is not an unreasonable person. Aunt Sun, you've served our family for many years. According to my father's personality, he should be grateful to you."
Aunt Sun quickly pouted. "Don't say such things. How could he be grateful to me? As long as he doesn't hurt me, I'll be thankful."
Then Aunt Sun continued, "No offense, Miss Meng. When I first took this job, I just wanted to earn some small money for my old age. I don't want to end up getting hurt here instead of being able to retire in peace."
After Aunt Sun said this, there was a deep meaning in her eyes. She was just waiting for Meng Nianchu to make a decision. To be honest, Aunt Sun had been in the family for so many years. Even if she didn't have great achievements, she had put in a lot of hard work.
Moreover, Aunt Sun took care of everything very carefully. So Meng Nianchu actually didn't want Aunt Sun to leave. "Aunt Sun, you've been here for so many years. I was thinking if you could hold on for a while longer and leave after this month."
When Aunt Sun heard this, she originally wanted to refuse. But now that Meng Nianchu had offered a condition, "Aunt Sun, as long as you can stay for a few more days, your salary will be doubled."
No one can say no to money, especially Aunt Sun, who was money - loving. Anyway, there was nothing too bad about staying here. It was just Father Meng. Aunt Sun thought for a moment and then made a decision.
"Then I'll stay for a few more days. You've promised me that the salary will be doubled." Meng Nianchu quickly nodded. After all, Aunt Sun had been a servant in the family for many years. If she left, it would be hard to find someone to take care of her father. It was better to keep her for a while longer. Meng Nianchu had thought of everything, but she had overlooked Father Meng.
Father Meng was so unwilling to keep Aunt Sun here. He was so anxious that he could only let out hoarse shouts, which sounded strange.
Meng Nianchu felt even more heart - ache looking at him. She reached out her hand and stroked Father Meng's back to help him calm down. "Dad, what's wrong? Don't be anxious. Speak slowly, speak slowly."
Hearing his daughter's words to calm him down, the anger in his heart gradually dissipated. He took a gentle breath and then looked at Aunt Sun standing not far away.
He waved his hand vigorously and then kicked his foot hard. It seemed that he wanted Aunt Sun to go wherever she wanted. But looking at Aunt Sun's calm appearance, she didn't move at all.
She knew that no matter how angry Father Meng was, he didn't have the ability to explain the whole thing clearly. Father Meng himself had thought a lot.
Now Aunt Sun wasn't worried at all. Looking at Father Meng not far away, she felt more at ease. She put down the thermos in her hand and squinted at Meng Nianchu.
"Miss Meng, it's mealtime. You've already brought food for Master Meng. So I won't interfere anymore. I'll go and do some work outside." Aunt Sun was a smooth - talking person. When she said this, there was no way for Meng Nianchu to refuse.
Meng Nianchu nodded and squinted at Aunt Sun with a smile. "Okay, then go ahead, Aunt Sun. There's nothing particularly important for now."
Hearing what Meng Nianchu said, Aunt Sun immediately walked out without any delay, as if she would be hurt if she stayed for a moment longer.
As soon as Aunt Sun left, Father Meng felt better immediately and stopped shouting randomly. Mu Junze, who had been watching, patted Meng Nianchu on the shoulder.
"I always feel that this Aunt Sun is a bit strange. Otherwise, Father Meng wouldn't have such a strong reaction." After Mu Junze said this, he winked at Father Meng beside him.
To everyone's surprise, Father Meng nodded vigorously at this moment and looked at Mu Junze with an appreciative look in his eyes. Originally, Meng Nianchu thought that Mu Junze was just joking or saying something casually. But she didn't expect Father Meng to react so strongly.
Meng Nianchu looked at Father Meng and seemed to have an idea. She stared at Father Meng intently. "Dad, do you mean that what Mu Junze said is true?"
Seeing that his daughter finally understood him, Father Meng couldn't help but feel very happy. He quickly nodded, indicating that everything Mu Junze said was right. Looking at Father Meng like this, Meng Nianchu instantly understood.
It seemed that there must be something wrong with Aunt Sun. If not, Father Meng wouldn't have behaved like this. Meng Nianchu paused for a moment and decided that it was time to observe Aunt Sun.
She looked at Mu Junze beside her. After all, Mu Junze had felt that there was something wrong with Aunt Sun. Just when Mu Junze had this feeling, he decided to observe Aunt Sun slowly here.
But at the same time, Mu Junze actually found that there was really something shady about Aunt Sun.
