Chapter 215 Gu Hong Wants to Get Rid of the Nanny (1/2)

Xiaoya was stunned when she heard this, her mouth slightly open as if she could fit an egg in it.

Her eyes widened in disbelief as she exclaimed, "Fifty dollars? A month? That's way too much!"

In Xiaoya's hometown, fifty yuan is a considerable sum of money; only those with special skills or high social status can earn such a monthly salary.

Here, Xiaoya was surprised to learn that a mere aunt who took care of children could earn so much money so easily, which gave her a deeper understanding of the wealth of Kyoto.

Xiaoya already had the idea of ​​staying in Kyoto, and now that idea had become even stronger.

She secretly resolved to carve out her own niche in this bustling city. However, when she saw Gu Hong, her heart skipped a beat. Gu Hong was glaring at her, her eyes revealing a hint of displeasure.

"Grandma, please don't tell Grandpa Gu and Grandma Jiang," Xiaoya quickly said. "It's best if we don't meddle in other people's business."

She knew Gu Hong always liked to meddle in other people's business, but this time she thought it was best not to cause trouble.

Although Gu Hong was somewhat displeased, she had to admit that Xiao Ya was right. She recalled the two times she had spoken out of turn before, only to be rebuffed both times; neither Grandpa Gu nor Grandma Jiang would side with her.

If she were to go and tell them now that she wanted to get rid of Aunt Li and let her earn the money herself, they definitely wouldn't agree.

Gu Hong pondered to herself, and suddenly a good idea came to her. She decided to find a way to get rid of Aunt Li first. That way, Old Madam Jiang would be too busy to find a suitable replacement in a short time. Then, wouldn't she be able to take over naturally? Thinking of this, a smug smile appeared on Gu Hong's face.

After Gu Hong changed the baby's formula last night, Grandma Jiang forbade her from going upstairs again.

Lin Han's meals were always prepared and delivered to her, so as long as Gu Hong didn't go upstairs, she wouldn't disturb Lin Han's rest.

If the others can endure it for a few more days, they can send Gu Hong and Xiao Ya away.

Gu Hong felt frustrated. In such a big house, she wasn't even allowed into the kitchen or upstairs. She could only wander around the living room and yard, and she was so bored.

Aunt Li was washing diapers for the baby, so Gu Hong moved a stool over to talk to her.

"Look at you, you're really degrading yourself by coming to someone else's house to be a maid, washing the child's poop and pee. Wouldn't it be better to enjoy a life of leisure at home?"

If you ask me, since I've already promised you fifty yuan, and my brother and sister-in-law are both people who care about their reputation, they won't go back on their word. Just do a quick and easy job, there's no need to take it so seriously.

You have no idea, that Lin Han upstairs is extremely difficult to deal with. If you don't do well, she won't let you off the hook.

You'd be better off doing less. Less work means fewer mistakes; more work means more mistakes. You need to learn to be lazy, you know?

Aunt Li disagreed. It wasn't a one-off deal. The reason Old Mrs. Jiang found her was because she had a very good reputation in the family compound. Everyone who had used her service gave her positive reviews.

If she tries to cheat or slack off at Grandma Jiang's house, no one will ask her to help out at their house again.

Grandma Jiang still has a lot of influence in the family compound.

She didn't want to ruin her reputation.
