Chapter 701 This is called professionalism
"Achu, I used to think that you were a little impulsive in bringing Aunt to the Magic City, but I didn't expect there were so many hidden secrets."
Yu Chuhui lowered his head, clasped his hands between his thighs, and said in a very disappointed tone, "Brother Chen, I won't hide it from you. Although I brought my mother to the Magic City on impulse, I have no regrets at all. My mother is too honest and easy to bully. I'm really afraid that by the time I have the ability, she may no longer be able to enjoy life."
"Achu, your father shouldn't be an only child, right?"
"No, I have an aunt, but she's also useless. She doesn't do any work at my grandparents' house, and my mother has to bear all the responsibilities alone."
Chen An touched his nose, coughed lightly with a strange expression, "Achu, don't blame me for speaking harshly."
"How could that be? Good medicine tastes bitter, and honest advice is unpleasant to the ears. Brother Chen, just go ahead and tell me."
"According to what you said, your father is not only a bad person, but he may also have a problem with his brain. Your house is under the name of your grandparents. When the two old people pass away, the ownership of the house will definitely belong to their children."
"Your father would rather give half of the house to your sisters than to be on guard against you and your mother. This is really a bit weird."
"My family is very conservative and believes that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled. It is impossible for my grandparents to leave half of the house to my aunt."
In response to Yu Chuhui's explanation, Chen An only said four words and let her understand it herself.
Yu Chuhui also reacted. That was only true when the person was alive, but what if the person was dead? The law did not recognize this. With the behavior of my aunt's family, they would definitely make trouble.
Suddenly it felt very ironic. My mother suffered, worked hard, and was wronged in order to protect the house for me, but it actually had nothing to do with my mother and me from the beginning to the end. And my father was a complete fool, who was smart enough to guard against my mother and me, but in the end it really benefited others?
It seems that my guess was correct. They must have discussed this matter at the beginning. Just because I am not a boy, but my last name is Yu? No wonder my grandparents, aunt, and father are all so unfriendly to my mother. They have never regarded mother and daughter as family members.
Seeing Yu Chuhui's expression, Chen An knew that it was time to take the next step. This girl had come to him on her own initiative, and if he didn't take advantage of the situation to do something, it would not be his style.
"Achu, please stop using your magic, or you will go out with red eyes and people who don't know will think that I bullied you."
After taking the tissue and wiping it, Yu Chuhui said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Brother Chen. When I thought about how all my mom's efforts were a joke, I couldn't hold back my emotions. I'll tell her about this soon, so that she won't be obsessed with that home."
"Achu, I think you'd better not do this."
Seeing Chen An's serious expression, Yu Chuhui was puzzled. "Brother Chen, why?"
"From your description, it seems that Auntie is not just obsessed with the house. There may be other problems as well."
Since he met Chen An, he has basically never missed a word he said. Yu Chuhui looked very worried and urged, "Brother Chen, tell me quickly, have you discovered anything?"
“Achu, when I was a child, I grew up at the foot of the mountain, very close to the village.
There was a single old man named Li in the village. He made a living by driving a horse-drawn cart and transporting goods for others. One day, he was tired after a day's work and did not tie up his horse properly when he returned home. He found out the next morning that his horse was missing. He was very anxious at the time and many people in the village came out to help look for it, but they couldn't find it after searching for a whole day.
"Everyone in the village came to comfort Old Li. After all, the horse was the foundation of his survival. Old Li had accepted his fate and borrowed money from the villagers to buy another horse. But two days later, when he woke up in the morning, he found that his lost horse had returned and was waiting at the door."
Yu Chuhui was confused at first, but he soon realized that the horse in Chen An’s story actually refers to his mother. The animal worked hard every day and was often beaten. Even after gaining its freedom, it eventually returned to its original home.
This is so similar to my mother's current situation. Things have some direction and many clues are connected. Since my mother came to Shanghai, she has wanted to go home more than once, and every time I get angry, she immediately apologizes.
I used to think my mother was worried about me, but now it seems that is not the case at all. Maybe what I said in anger yesterday was unfortunately true. I feel guilty and distressed. "Brother Chen, thank you. I will go see my mother."
Chen An reached out and held Yu Chuhui, "Sit down first. A three-foot-thick ice doesn't form overnight. There's no need to rush. There's one thing you obviously haven't realized, so I still need to remind you."
"I'm sorry, Brother Chen, I was a little impulsive." Yu Chuhui took out a tissue, quickly wiped his face, and took out a small mirror to touch up his makeup.
Knowing that Yu Chuhui had misunderstood, Chen An simply pointed it out, "Honghong told me that you had a few unhappy times recently because of Auntie's matter."
Yu Chuhui paused, her anger rising. She valued Chen An's impression of her very much, but He Minhong actually dared to say bad things about her behind her back?
"Brother Chen, don't listen to He Minhong's nonsense. Every time I have a conflict with her, it is caused by her. She just likes to meddle in other people's business. She has no idea what the whole thing is. She just likes to stand on the moral high ground and make her own comments."
Yu Chuhui was still preparing to make excuses, but when he saw Chen An waving his hand, he could only suppress his anger and looked at Chen An like a good boy.
"Honghong has a simple personality and is naive. He is a flower in a greenhouse, a happy child. He does have many problems, but he is not a bad person by nature."
"And that's not what I'm saying. Haven't you ever wondered why she can always interrupt your mother-daughter conversation? Why can she always make comments?"
Yu Chuhui was stunned by the question and felt a little embarrassed. She knew the reason very well. When she got angry, she spoke loudly to her mother. The room was not soundproofed, so her mother could hear everything clearly.
"From your reaction, it's obvious that you know the crux of the problem. In fact, Honghong is just too stupid. If she hadn't forced herself to express her opinion, but had asked you to keep your voices down when you and Auntie were arguing, you two wouldn't have quarreled."
"Brother Chen, what you said is indeed correct, but for He Minhong, it is in his bones that he likes to meddle in other people's affairs. It is impossible to change it at all."
"Achu, Honghong can't think of this. Sister Zhu has a high EQ, so can't she think of this either?"
"Uh..." Yu Chuhui was a little speechless for a moment. Brother Chen was right, but he still explained, "Sister Zhu may feel that it is inconvenient to interfere in my affairs."
"From my observation, Sister Zhu is indeed a person with a good sense of propriety and crisis awareness, and is very good at handling this kind of thing." Chen An changed the subject and asked, "But you told me that the person who reminded you was Sister Zhu, not Zhenzhen. This is a bit unreasonable."
Yu Chuhui felt something was strange last time, but because of his mother's affairs at the time, he subconsciously ignored it. Now thinking back, it seems that something is indeed not right.
Patting Yu Chuhui on the shoulder, Chen An reminded him earnestly, "No one is perfect. Although Honghong has many flaws, he has a kind heart. It is a blessing to meet such a roommate.
You brought your aunt to Shanghai, and she told me that you offered to split the water, electricity, gas and electricity costs into four parts, with you taking on two parts, but she felt that was totally unnecessary. "
Yu Chuhui blushed a little for a moment. Brother Chen saw through her little thoughts at a glance. Only the silly girl He Minhong didn't notice it.
Eh? No, Sister Zhu knew what I was thinking, but she didn't point it out. Every time I quarreled with my mother, she tried to protect herself and didn't remind me. When I quarreled with He Minhong, she didn't stop him directly.
However, she was very proactive when it came to her mother's job as a nanny. Yu Chuhui realized instantly that once her mother became a nanny, she would definitely move to the employer's home. Even if he had a dispute with his mother at that time, it would not happen at home.
In this way, He Minhong, the troublemaker, will have no room to perform, and the quarrels between them will be reduced.
Although Yu Chuhui felt a little uncomfortable with Zhu Zhe's behavior, he could understand it if he put himself in his shoes.
I couldn't help but admire her in my heart. She is worthy of being able to go from a vocational high school student to a housekeeping manager in a five-star hotel. Her method is subtle and effective. If Brother Chen hadn't pointed it out, I would never have thought of it. I have to be grateful to Sister Zhu in my heart. It's like killing three birds with one stone.
Suddenly Yu Chuhui realized a problem. It seemed that since he met Brother Chen, he had helped and advised him more than once. If he said that all this was for Zhenzhen's sake, it would be a bit far-fetched.
But if it wasn't because of this, why would Brother Chen be so nice to me? Was it because of my looks and figure?
As soon as this idea appeared in her mind, she rejected it immediately. There were so many beautiful subordinates in Brother Chen's company, and she was just a slightly plump little potato.
Chen An had no idea that Yu Chuhui almost guessed the truth. His purpose for today had been achieved, so he chatted with Yu Chuhui for a few minutes and then sent him away.
