Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 661

Chapter 661: Chapter 657: Everyone is Very Generous

——————

Nanny Chen appeared to be utterly flustered, sitting on the stool as if it were covered in thorns, shaking tremendously.

Yan Jinsu saw this, and the warmth in her eyes softened even further.

Fortunately, over these years, Nanny Chen had been confined to the kitchen in the backyard and had not encountered Xie Jingchen in public. Otherwise, Xie Jingchen would have long been reported for improper behavior.

"Nanny, I’m not trying to criticize you, but I hope you can understand that calling him like this would only make it difficult for Brother Chen to fit in with others. We’re all his family, and we definitely wish for his well-being, don’t we?"

Yan Jinsu gently patted her aged hand, soothingly persuading.

"I..." Nanny Chen, upon hearing Yan Jinsu actually consider her as ’family’, suddenly felt her eyes welling up with tears.

Her heart felt a wave of affirmation, and looking at Yan Jinsu with grateful, tear-filled eyes, she said, "Madam, I...I’m just used to it."

"Alright, nanny, I won’t force you. If you can’t change the way you address him, could you call ’Thirteenth Master’ as commander instead?"

The currently fashionable titles were ’Mister, Madam’, but Xie Jingchen was already serving as Rongwei Chief, so calling him commander was more appropriate, and he was more accustomed to it as well.

Seeing the old nanny not object and even nodding in agreement, Yan Jinsu breathed a sigh of relief.

The nickname Nanny Chen used for her was quite acceptable, but when she thought of the titles for her two adoring babies, she felt like facepalming, suggesting:

"However, Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi are just too young to be addressed in such a manner by you. In our hometown, it’s customary that the nicknames for little infants are as humble as possible to ensure they are raised well, so just call them Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi like the rest of us."

"Of course, Madam," Nanny Chen nodded repeatedly. After all, servility was not inherent, and in these past years, being surrounded by the transport teams, these big nephews and little nephews were both polite and respectful to her, thus Nanny Chen acted more normal.

It was only when facing Xie Jingchen, her great benefactor, that she was prone to becoming muddled.

"Nanny, during this time, we will have to rely on your help."

"No, no, Madam, this is something nanny ought to do. Madam, the soup will get cold soon, you should drink the bone broth quickly to warm up a bit."

"Alright. Later, please take some soup to Chun Mei in her room, so she doesn’t have to walk back and forth and risk aggravating her wound."

"Oh, Chun Mei got injured? Ah, Madam, I will go check on her right away."

Seeing herself being useful, Nanny Chen’s earlier dejection vanished, and she energetically replied.

"Alright, go ahead." Yan Jinsu responded approvingly, as she liked people who were practical.

Wang Chunmei, having seen Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law needed to talk, took Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi back to their inner chamber. After lulling them to sleep and tucking them in with their warm cotton quilts, she quietly left the main room and returned to her west wing chamber.

After all, she had come to understand somewhat that Brother Xie’s military rank seemed to be not insignificant, and certainly not as simple as the ’small Rong Commander’ he had told the villagers he was!

While she might not be highly educated, there were some things she was not supposed to hear, and she understood that much; at least her emotional intelligence was up to par.

Of course, Xie Jingchen had downplayed his military rank from the start truly out of fear of trouble.
