"..." Chen Xiufang looked constipated as she ’accused’ Yan Jinsu with her eyes!
"Pfft, I’m just learning from you, to let you act weird!" Yan Jinsu laughed in response.
"By the way, did the child have a check-up? Did you go check it?"
"I had a check-up, but I didn’t go to see the gender. I already have Xiao Ze, it doesn’t matter whether this child is a boy or a girl, my in-laws will like it either way."
"That’s true, you have a successor now. I don’t even understand where these thoughts come from... Oh, right, I have another favor to ask you, see if you have someone trustworthy, I want to hire a nanny, not just for anything else, but to help me look after the two children, or maybe to cook some meals, too."
"Huh?" Chen Xiufang thought she had heard wrong and looked at the little girl in surprise.
"Is that too outrageous?" Yan Jinsu also asked because she wasn’t sure if it was appropriate, so she specially came to ask her good friend.
"Of course... it’s very outrageous! Little girl, that isn’t like the previous Rongshu County you stayed in, it’s the countryside! Why, are Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi very naughty?"
"Not really, it’s just that I suddenly have one less person to help around me, and I’m not used to it." If you were to use Zhou Xiuhua’s words, it would be ’wild’ habit, staying home too long makes her restless, always wanting to go out to find something to do.
Although she truly loves her children deeply, in Yan Jinsu’s eyes, she doesn’t need to forsake her own nature for the sake of her children.
Her habits formed in the apocalypse of staying indoors all day truly make her uncomfortable.
Fortunately, whether in the military area or back in her hometown, there are deep mountains for her to go hunting in. She could also add some meat and vegetables to her family’s supply, why not!
As for staying in the office dealing with miscellaneous documents all day like Chen Xiufang, she doesn’t like that. She likes to be free and unrestrained.
"Why don’t you just say outright, you just want to go out and stretch out, show off your great skills!" Chen Xiufang thought of the little girl’s strength that rivals strong men and felt a toothache.
"Exactly!" Yan Jinsu looked at her with an expression of ’you truly understand me’, "Expecting me to lay in bed all day watching the kids, that would be the death of me!"
"Ptooey ptooey ptooey, what nonsense are you talking! Isn’t your mother-in-law at home? There’s no business to take care of here, why can’t she watch them?"
"No way. There’s already Xiao Si and Xiaoqi at home, that’s enough for my mother-in-law to handle. Dad is often taken away by those old men from the clan, and there’s no one at home to help, I can’t rest easy going to the mountains." Yan Jinsu shook her head and continued,
"In the village, there are a lot of idle old mothers, but their awareness isn’t great, I can’t trust them!
Not to put it bluntly, I’m paying someone to take care of my children and family, it can’t turn out that something happens and then complain to outsiders saying, ’She only went to check if the children were asleep, then briefly went back to her house, just left for a few minutes... Didn’t expect something to happen!’
If I encounter such a messed-up situation, I would feel like killing someone!" Although Yan Jinsu is not from this era, she has heard of enough incidents happening in the countryside.
"Ouch, you’re talking about such common occurrences! Living in the countryside has this disadvantage, wanting to hire a nanny is tough! Even if you aren’t afraid of others’ gossip, can your in-laws withstand it?"
Yan Jinsu frowned, feeling annoyed.
