Chunxi and her mother-in-law, with the only man in their family gone and never returning, struggled every day to raise the children. Lin Yue pitied them greatly and always thought that if she was able, she would help them a bit, but considering Chunxi's behavior regarding the matter of wages, it seemed that her character wasn't very reliable. It would be wise to minimize contact with her in the future, or at least treat her only as an ordinary friend.
Lin Yue was occasionally kind, but not foolishly so. When Chunxi had taken the silver, she acted as if Lin Yue owed her help, which was simply expected. Perhaps it was because Lin Yue had been too good to Chunxi and her mother-in-law that Chunxi came to think this way. "Give them an inch, and they'll take a mile" really did make sense. It seemed Lin Yue still had much to learn about how to behave in society. As for Chunxi, Lin Yue had no plans to be taken advantage of any longer.
