She had previously warned Xiaotang not to trust that family too much, but Xiaotang didn't listen and instead became more and more distant from her.

Over the years, Xiao Tang has never visited her home even once.

She was very happy that the child could come today.

“Ever since my uncle’s accident, my aunt has been in a bad mood,” Su Wantang said with her eyes lowered. “My aunt has already completed the resignation procedures. She is going to Hong Kong to relax, so that job is now vacant.”

Anyway, Sun Xiaoli and her daughter Zhang Xuehui had already been sold to a remote mountain area and would never come back.

This job is not as good as selling to Aunt Liu's daughter.

“I remember your daughter needs a job, right?” Su Wantang looked up at Aunt Liu.

Aunt Liu sat opposite Su Wantang, her eyes lighting up as she nodded, "Yes."

Her daughter had just reached the age where she needed a job, but she didn't have a decent one.

If I have a decent job, I can find a good partner in the future.

She remembered that Xiaotang's aunt worked in a textile factory, a very respectable job.

"How about I give this job to you?" Su Wantang smiled slightly. "My aunt said before she left that I could handle that job."

“How can you give this away! Such a good job could fetch at least a thousand yuan if sold.” Aunt Liu quickly said, “Your aunt clearly wants you to help her sell the job. You’re such a simpleton.”

Aunt Liu said, "It just so happens that my daughter also needs a job. Here's what I'll do: I'll give you two thousand yuan, and you can sell this job to my daughter."

"No way! You're my aunt, how can I take your money!" Su Wantang frowned and said.

"It's precisely because I'm your aunt that I can't let you suffer a loss," Aunt Liu said with a smile. "Wait for me a moment."

Then, Aunt Liu got up, and soon came out with a cloth bag and handed it to Su Wantang.

She opened the cloth bag, which contained a total of two thousand yuan.

"Take this money," Aunt Liu said with a smile.

“Aunt Liu…” Su Wantang frowned.

"You silly child, if you're still willing to call me 'Auntie,' then take this money," Aunt Liu said sternly, feigning anger. "If you don't take this money, I won't associate with you anymore!"

Su Wantang had no choice but to accept the money. "Okay, I'll take it, I'll take it, alright?"

"That's good." Aunt Liu finally smiled broadly.

"Then let's go and get the work done," Su Wantang said.

Next, Su Wantang, Aunt Liu, and Aunt Liu's daughter went to the workplace to handle the matter. Although Sun Xiaoli herself was not there, Su Wantang could sell the job on Sun Xiaoli's behalf with the power of attorney in her hand.

Two hours later, Sun Xiaoli's job had already become Aunt Liu's daughter, Chunyan's.

"Thank you, sister," Chunyan said, her face flushed.

"There's no need to thank me. I did receive money from your mother," Su Wantang said with a light laugh.

"Xiao Tang, come back with us. Aunt Liu will cook you a big meal to treat you well." Aunt Liu smiled affectionately at Su Wantang.

"Okay." Su Wantang smiled gently.

She hadn't felt this relaxed and happy in a long time since her mother passed away.

The three returned to Aunt Liu's house.

Aunt Liu went to the kitchen and stir-fried chicken with green peppers, braised pig's trotters, and garlic spare ribs, and steamed a large pot of hot white rice.

The three of them sat around the dining table, happily eating their meal.
