Aunt Chen blushed with embarrassment, but she still took off the ring and returned it to Xie Zhi. She had never thought of such a thing before; she only stayed in this house because of her feelings for the two children and because she had promised her deceased wife.

"Boss, this is unacceptable. I can't accept your ring. You should give it to someone who is meant to be your wife. I'm only suitable to be your family's nanny. If you don't mind, I'm willing to be your nanny for the rest of my life, watching the children grow up and start their own families. Xiaotian and Xiaoli are like my own children. I just need your permission. You absolutely cannot be the boss's woman. I'm just a peasant woman who can't be presented to the world." Aunt Chen still took off the ring and insisted on returning it to Xie Zhi.

Xie Zhi grew anxious and bowed to the onlookers. "Please, everyone, help me persuade her to accept it. I genuinely want to marry her. I trust her with the family. After all we've been through, I, Xie Zhi, know who treats me best. If it weren't for her feeding me bite by bite, I would have starved to death long ago. How could I, Xie Zhi, be where I am today?"

Seeing that Xie Zhi was truly sincere, everyone helped to persuade him:

“Xiao Chen, say yes to him.” Ye Mei gently patted her shoulder. “It’s time for you to find a home. You said you wanted to watch Xiao Tian and Xiao Li grow up, and you wanted to keep your wife’s dying wish. Only by marrying him can you live up to her expectations. No matter who Boss Xie marries, your status in the Chen family will be affected. If you want to protect your two children, this is your only way out.”

Ye Mei's words struck a chord with Aunt Chen, and her resolve wavered.

“Aunt Chen, please agree to his proposal. You’ve already brought your two children here. If you don’t marry him, the children won’t be able to go to school here. Do you want to continue being separated from your own flesh and blood?” Su Xiaonuan said. “As long as we get the marriage certificate, you and the children can transfer your household registration here, and the children will have a place to go to school.”

"Can we really transfer our household registration here?" Aunt Chen's eyes lit up. She wasn't a woman who indulged in wishful thinking, but she cared a lot about transferring her and her children's household registration. If they could have a city household registration, their children's future would be secure.

"I have a way to transfer your household registration here," Xie Zhi patted his chest. "Don't worry, I will treat your two children as my own and support them through university. Oh, and I've also brought your parents here. From now on, you can live peacefully in this home and never have to go back to the countryside again."

It seems that Xie Zhi had made thorough preparations. These were all the weaknesses that Aunt Chen was worried about. With all her worries resolved, Aunt Chen was no longer hesitant and put the ring back on her finger.

"That's wonderful, Xiao Chen has found a home." Zhang Yulan's eyes welled up with tears. She had once been a woman raising two children alone, and only she knew the hardships she had endured. It was because of her that she could empathize with Xiao Chen.

"Xiao Chen, come home with me." Xie Zhi gestured to her in invitation.

"Wait." Su Xiaonuan stood in front of Aunt Chen. "If you want to take Aunt Chen away from our house, let me make this clear: our family is also Aunt Chen's family. If you dare to wrong her, I'll cripple you first."

“You really don’t need to doubt this,” Xie Zhi said. “Those two just now came to my house and begged for ages, only to be kicked out by me. They then chased me here to beg again. Do you think I would fall for these vixens’ tricks now? Heaven has given me this chance to start a new life. I will definitely be a good person and cherish my family.”

“Okay, then you go back first, I promise to take Aunt Chen to your house.” Su Xiaonuan waved happily.

"Her children and parents are still waiting for her."

"Stop talking so much nonsense. Go back now. I guarantee I'll send you back a fairy-like woman in an hour." Su Xiaonuan said impatiently.

Xie Zhi then left, turning back every few steps.

Aunt Chen is called "old" by everyone, but she is actually a few years younger than Xie Zhi. She is a nanny from the countryside who is reluctant to spend money on taking care of herself. She goes out without makeup every day and dresses in an old-fashioned way, which makes her look old-fashioned.

As soon as Xie Zhi left, the women busied themselves, some looking for clothes, others for cosmetics, and dressed Aunt Chen from head to toe. Ye Mei even took out all of Aunt Chen's most treasured clothes to change into.

"Look, she looks ten years younger with just a little dressing up. You never pay attention to these things. Don't be so stingy. You should wear what you need to wear. You always dress like an old lady in her seventies or eighties." Ye Mei looked at the clothes she had chosen for Aunt Chen with pride and nodded repeatedly.

"Xiao Chen, you look really good after you finished cleaning." Zhang Yulan also praised her.

"You wait and see, I'll make Aunt Chen even more beautiful." Su Xiaonuan pulled out a bunch of skincare and makeup products. Although she doesn't usually wear makeup, she bought a lot for her wedding, and now they're coming in handy.

She pressed Aunt Chen down in front of the dressing table, using her face as a palette, drawing and applying paint here and there, like magic, instantly transforming Aunt Chen into a great beauty, and even putting her hair up in a bun.

"My God, is that me in the mirror?" Chen Suqin swayed left and right in disbelief.

"It's you! Don't you think you're beautiful?" Su Xiaonuan bent down and pointed at the beauty in the mirror. "From now on, you should spend more time on yourself. Don't just think about the children all day long. Think about your own happiness too. You're not ugly or old. It's just that everyone makes you sound old."

"Xiao Nuan, your makeup skills are truly exceptional." Su Ming and Xiao Moran looked at Aunt Chen as she walked out, and the two men almost didn't recognize her.

“It’s because Aunt Chen has a good foundation, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to draw this,” Su Xiaonuan said. “Come on, you guys come with me to take Aunt Chen over. The one we’re taking over is a beauty. If Xie Zhi dares to make our beauty suffer again, we’ll teach him a lesson.”

Despite the proximity, they drove three cars to the Xie family's house.

Xie Zhi looked around at everyone but couldn't find Aunt Chen. He anxiously rubbed his hands and asked Su Xiaonuan, "Where's Xiao Chen? Where did you take her? Her parents and children are waiting for her."

"Haha, your eyesight is really bad!" Su Xiaonuan pushed the completely transformed Aunt Chen in front of him. "Look, this is the Xiao Chen you wanted."

"You...you are Xiao Chen..." Xie Zhi's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that the elegant and beautiful woman in front of him was Aunt Chen.

"Yes." Chen Suqin nodded, her face flushed. "Yes, that's me."

"Wow, it looks amazing after all this!" Xie Zhi couldn't stop smiling; he had actually struck gold.

"Mom!" Chen Suqin's son and daughter ran out.

"Suqin, is it really you?" the two elderly people exclaimed excitedly.

"Dad, Mom, it's me." Chen Suqin excitedly stepped forward and hugged the two elderly people, choking back tears as she spoke.

"Don't cry," Su Xiaonuan warned. "Otherwise, you'll ruin your makeup."
