109: Chapter 106: The Shaless Relative Who Doesn’t Appreciate Kindness 109: Chapter 106: The Shaless Relative Who Doesn’t Appreciate Kindness Hmph~ Emily Parker listened to Aunt Parker go on and on without changing her expression.
But Adam Willow, sitting nearby, could hardly bear it any longer.
He had always thought that the Parkers were all very well-mannered, but what’s with Grandma Parker and Aunt Parker right now?
They actually suggested Emily go be a nanny?
“A nanny?
Auntie, how can that be okay?
My sister is a college graduate, how can she be a nanny for soone else!”
Sophie Parker stole a glance at Adam Willow, and seeing that his face looked rather upset, she quickly interrupted Aunt Parker’s words.
“Emily just lost her job, and college graduates aren’t as prestigious as they used to be.
What’s wrong with being a nanny?
The tuition fees for your dad’s studies were paid for by my leaving school to work as a nanny.
And besides, that family is not ordinary.
Both the husband and wife have formal jobs, there is an elderly mother at ho who beca paralyzed due to a fall a few years ago, and they have two children in primary school.
They offer eight thousand a month just to look after the old lady and take care of the children.
If Rose Lowe’s son hadn’t just given birth to a big, chubby grandson for her, and she needed to go back to take care of the grandchild, she wouldn’t even want to leave that job.”
Aunt Parker would never tell the Parker Family that Rose Lowe said it was exhausting to take care of both the old and young, and that’s why she quit.
Grandma Parker also showed full approval,
“Exactly, your Aunt Lowe has been eating so well at that family’s house, she’s grown quite plump and comfortable.
That job includes als and accommodation, you’d save quite a bit on rent.”
Grandma Parker had heard that Emily had already moved out to live on her own, without the knowledge of the Parker Family.
Renting a place in Capital is so expensive, it would cost several thousand a month in rent.
Now that Emily had lost her job, how could she afford the rent?
Without question, it must be her son who is subsidizing her, and as a mother, she felt bad for the money her son had to spend.
Father Parker listened without rush to speak.
He was still a little displeased about Emily quitting her job on her own volition.
He could arrange a job for Emily himself, but with the governnt currently focusing on anti-corruption efforts, it was not a good ti for him to use his connections to arrange sothing for her.
Father Parker used to think that although Emily wasn’t good at studying, at least she was good-looking, and getting her married off after graduation would be enough.
Who would have thought she’d compete with Sophie Parker for Adam Willow, and also missed out on the job proposition with the young master from the Carter Clan.
This won’t do, that won’t do, does Emily really think she’s an emperor’s daughter?
“Auntie, the job you ntioned indeed sounds good.”
Emily Parker said with a smile.
“Right?
I have that family’s number, and after dinner, you can give them a call to get in touch.
Don’t be late, or this good job might get snatched away by soone else.”
Aunt Parker was all smiles, Rose Lowe had ntioned that the family was willing to pay a finder’s fee, and if successful, she could get a thousand yuan.
“Auntie, you’re not even fifty, and you’re in good health.
Why don’t you take the job yourself, after all, you’ve been a nanny before.”
Emily Parker asured Aunt Parker up; after Aunt Parker got married, she never went out to work again and had grown quite plump in recent years.
Aunt Parker’s face tightened, as if she was performing a face-changing act,
“Emily, what do you an by this.
Are you suggesting I go to soone’s house to be a servant?”
Aunt Parker, who had worked in big cities when she was young, of course knew the hardships of being a nanny.
After her brother got a formal job, she was kicked out by the hoowner coincidentally for being untrustworthy.
Her mother then arranged a marriage for her with a village cadre, and later when Grandma Parker sold the old Parker family house, using that money to build so small shops in the village, the whole family lived off the rent inco.
Why would Aunt Parker want to go to the city to wait on others, handling their filth?
“Now that’s funny.
You, who haven’t even finished middle school, know that being a nanny is nial work, yet you try to dump that dirty role onto ?
Do I look like a fool to you?”
Emily Parker sneered.
“Brother, look at this, the way she talks to her elders.
Just look at her mouth, she’s just like her shaless mother.”
Aunt Parker, red-faced with anger and her cheeks quivering, scolded Emily Parker without reservation.
Emily Parker, hearing her mother being insulted, grabbed the chopsticks in her hand and threw them out.
The pair of chopsticks flew out like arrows released from their bow.
Without deviation, the two chopsticks lodged themselves into Aunt Parker’s nostrils.
She scread in fright, her corpulent body falling backward.
She leaned back, and with a smack, the whole person flipped over like a giant turtle.
“Auntie!”
Sophie Parker hurriedly went forward to help her aunt up.
Grandma Parker felt sorry for her daughter and was also angry, furiously pounding the table,
“Henry Parker, are you not going to take control of your oldest daughter?”
No sooner had Grandma Parker finished speaking than Emily Parker grabbed another pair of chopsticks, causing Grandma Parker to swiftly cover her nose in fear.
“Emily Parker, apologize to your aunt.”
Father Parker said in a stern voice, although he also felt that it was a bit much for his sister to introduce nanny work to Emily Parker; rembering how his sister had worked to earn tuition fees for him when they were young, his heart softened again.
“I didn’t send her down to apologize to my mother, and that was already very considerate of .
This al, whoever wants to eat, let them eat.”
Emily Parker dropped her chopsticks and turned to leave.
“Emily, don’t be impulsive.
Auntie and grandma might have said so unpleasant things,
but they are also worried about you, concerned yet confused.”
Adam Willow quickly caught up with Emily Parker.
“Grandma and Auntie?
Such affectionate terms, Adam Willow, when did you change your surna to Parker?”
Emily Parker said, amused.
“Sis, Adam and I have decided to get engaged.
Once we’re engaged, we’ll all be one family.
Sis, I know I was wrong before.
I apologize to you.
Today is the family banquet discussing the engagent with Adam, and our parents have ordered fine dishes, so please, just finish this al before you leave.”
Sophie Parker ca over and took Adam Willow’s arm, her expression brimming with sweetness.
Adam Willow pursed his lips and remained silent.
“Getting engaged?
Then congratulations indeed.”
Emily Parker thought she would feel upset upon hearing this news, but unexpectedly, she felt a complete sense of relief.
She had truly let go.
With Adam Willow getting engaged, and her already married, from now on, they would be like two parallel lines, never intersecting again.
“I won’t stay for the al.
Congratulations to the both of you, you truly are a match made in heaven.”
These words, when they reached Adam Willow’s ears, caused a flicker of light in his eyes.
Emily Parker was unwilling to stay for the al, a clear sign that she still harbored feelings for him.
Just then, the door opened.
A waiter walked in
“Dear guests, due to a negligence in our system, we’ve made a mistake with the reservation information.
This private room has been reserved in advance by soone else, so we’ll need to vacate it.”
Upon the waiter’s words, everyone in the private room was stunned, even Emily Parker paused in her steps.
“A mistake?
How could there be a mistake?
This room was booked under my na and reserved three days ago.
We just ordered dishes,”
Mrs.
Parker said with displeasure.
“Ma’am, I am really sorry, it was a system error.
We won’t charge for what you’ve ordered so far.
This private room has indeed been reserved by soone else; it was booked by the Manor Family.”
The waiter apologized with a smile, but there was a hint of contempt in his eyes.
