Chapter 152: They’re All Relatives
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
William was thinking about the numbers when he saw a ghost-like auntie floating over from the corner of his eye. She was even wearing a red dress. He was so frightened that he almost jumped up! He took a closer look. Oh, so it was a person, not a ghost. He heaved a sigh of relief.
The woman in red sat on the chair beside him and let out a tired sigh. She leaned against the back of the chair and looked very tired.
Alia exclaid and walked over. “It’s you again, Auntie.”
Emma also looked over and asked, “Who is it? Mia, do you know her?” Lucas narrowed his eyes. “It’s the parent of the girl who cut the queue just now.”
The woman in red turned around weakly and was stunned for a mont when she saw Alia and the others. Then, she said, “It’s you…”
Alia stared at the evil spirit on the red-dressed woman’s shoulder. Seeing that Alia was looking in the wrong direction, William subconsciously asked, “What’s wrong?
Alia leaned close to William’s ear and whispered, “Brother, there’s a female ghost lying on this auntie’s shoulder…”
William: “…” He exploded! His hair stood on end!
Alia looked at William, who had changed positions in the blink of an eye, and asked curiously, “Brother, what’s wrong?
William’s lips twitched. “Nothing. It’s windy over there. I’ll go sowhere else.”
The woman in red smiled tiredly. “I’m sorry about earlier…”
Alia shook her head. “Auntie, what’s your na?
The woman in red leaned against the chair and hunched over as if she had been crushed. She said, “My na is Ashley Sheen.”
Emma looked at Ashley strangely. “Then, Auntie, why did you bring that girl to
Happy Valley to play?” This auntie seed to be quite easy to get along with. Now that she was so tired, she was probably tired from bringing that disobedient girl.
Alia nodded as well. “That’s right. Why did you co with her? Aren’t you always with good friends when you co to Happy Valley? Why do you want to play with soone you don’t like?” She felt that Aunt Ashley didn’t seem to like that girl or that old Grandma.
Ashley pursed her lips and looked resentful. “I don’t want to play with them either, but they are my husband’s relatives and insisted on coming to Happy Valley to play… I didn’t even bring my daughter to Happy Valley…”
Alia was puzzled. “Since you don’t want to play with them, why don’t you reject them?”
Ashley shook her head. “We’re all relatives. It’s not good to reject.”
Alia nodded and shook her head. The world of adults was so difficult to understand. She did not like it) but she did not reject it. Why did she have to force herself?
William, who was more logical, caught the main point of Ashley’s words and asked curiously, “Since they’re your husband’s relatives, why didn’t your husband bring them here?”
Ashley’s tone was a little angry. “My husband said that he’s fishing and doesn’t have ti to co!”
Alia and the others were stunned. Fishing? That was a little strange. It would be fine if he was busy with work and could not co, but fishing was not work…
Emma frowned. “Since your husband isn’t coming, you don’t have to co either. Don’t spoil them.” Just like how her Grandma said that if she didn’t eat, so be it. Don’t spoil her. In the end, she still ate obediently.
Ashley sighed. “Forget it. I don’t want to quarrel with him. I still have work to do. Arguing will affect my mood too much. I can’t focus on work. My husband doesn’t work. If I don’t work, how can I eat at ho? So I don’t want to quarrel at all.”
Alia and the others were speechless. This logic was so strange. The people who worked to earn money to support their families actually had to deal with the little things. Shouldn’t the people who worked earn money and the people who didn’t work bear more responsibility?
Alia asked, “Auntie, aren’t you going to work today?”
Ashley shook her head. “I’m a novelist. My working hours are free. I can write a manuscript when I go back at night.”
Lucas was speechless. He had originally thought that this auntie was a housewife who did not earn money, so she had to listen to others. No matter how unhappy she was, she had to bring her husband’s relatives out to play. He did not expect her to be the one who earned money at ho! How could the person who earned money live so aggrievedly? He did not understand.
At this mont, the old lady brought the girl over. When she saw Alia and the others, she imdiately snorted. “How unlucky.” The old lady looked around and saw that the chairs in the surrounding rest area were all occupied. William was originally sitting on Alia’s left. After changing seats, Alia and Ashley were next to each other with a little space between them. The old lady said, “Move over a little and give us a seat..”
