Bab 714: Overheard Conversation (18)

"I liked the candidate I met with today. She's gentle but efficient. I like her very much. In fact, I've already hired her to come take care of Ah Nian starting from tomorrow. With her here, we will not need to trouble you anymore. You won't need to come tomorrow."

If Song Qingchun thought Auntie Su was being ambiguous earlier, the elder woman spelled it out clearly for her then. She gripped the cup tightly and used some time to digest what Auntie Su said. "Auntie Su, I've asked my company for holiday, and my father knows I'm at the hospital. You really don't need to go and find a care-taker; furthermore, who is to say the care-taker will really look after Su…"

Before Song Qingchun could finish, Auntie Su interrupted her. "I know the new care-taker will definitely not be as focused and as caring as you, but I'd rather she takes care of Ah Nian than have you around Ah Nian anymore. Now do you understand what Auntie is trying to say?"
