Chapter 87 The next day, Fu Chunhua asked for leave to return to her hometown...

The next day, Fu Chunhua asked for leave to return to her hometown, and Qin Ren and Liu Qingyue also wanted to return to the town.

Qin Ren was a little worried about Su Su, so he asked an aunt who lived in the county to come and take care of her.

This auntie is from Qin Ren's hometown village. She's a very nice and honest person.

She now lives in the city because she wants to help her son take care of his children there.

My aunt's son has to work, and her daughter-in-law runs a small shop, so there's no one to look after the children on weekdays.

My aunt had nothing to do in the countryside, so her son brought her over to take care of the children.

It was initially agreed that her son would pay her 2,000 yuan a month for her work.

Later, they discovered that many mothers-in-law took care of children for free, so the young couple simply stopped giving her money.

Qin Ren had a very good impression of this aunt and had even wanted to hire her to help him take care of Su Su.

Nowadays, Liu Qingyue is busy with work, either looking after the factory in the modern world or taking goods to ancient times to sell.

Because their factory is large-scale and their products are quite good, they sell very well in modern markets.

Under these circumstances, Liu Qingyue was really busy and had no time to take care of the children.

Similarly, Qin Ren was also very busy. He was the Marquis of Yuling, in charge of such a large fiefdom.

Now that things are getting better and better in Dayong, there are more and more places where Qin Ren is needed.

The emperor valued Qin Ren highly, so Qin Ren was unable to frequently travel to the modern world.

Qin Ren thought that he might as well find another nanny to take care of Su Su.

Hiring two nannies has its advantages: one can cook, and the other can take care of his daily life.

If we don't hire two nannies at the same time, they can supervise each other and prevent anyone from secretly mistreating Susu.

Qin Ren originally wanted to invite this aunt, but her daughter-in-law was very unwilling.

Because if she leaves, there will be no one to take care of her child. She and her husband want to have a second child, so they don't want her mother-in-law to work as a nanny.

This time, Qin Ren asked her to help take care of the child. Since it was only for one day, his aunt was happy to help.

In addition, Qin Ren gave her five hundred yuan, and thinking that the two families' children went to school not far apart, she secretly took on the job.

The children of the two families live across the street. She can send her grandson home first, and then go to Susu's school to pick him up.

Qin Ren and Liu Qingyue were going to town, so they would only be away from home during the midday period.

All she needs to do is take Susu out for a meal, watch over Susu during her half-hour nap at noon, and then take Susu to school.

Qin Ren and Liu Qingyue returned that evening, so there was no need to trouble her any further.

She thought it was a small matter that wouldn't interfere with her taking care of her grandson, and she could even earn a little money.

Unexpectedly, when she returned home after dropping Susu off at school in the afternoon, she found her daughter-in-law throwing a tantrum at the house.

As soon as her daughter-in-law saw her return, she glared at her husband and started cursing.

"You go to work, you go to work, but does that mean I don't have to work? We agreed before we got married that you could go out to work and earn money, and I could have my own career. Now, after only a few months of your mother taking care of the child, she's already leaving the child at home. Who knows where she'll put the child in the future?"

On the other end of the phone, the man said helplessly, "What do you mean 'your mom'? She's your mom too. Besides, I know about what happened today. My mom discussed it with me beforehand. Didn't I tell you this morning? I have to be at work by 2 PM. Your shop has flexible hours, so it's okay if you're a little late. She's usually very punctual when taking the kids to school. It's just that there was one problem today."

“I don’t care. Whose child isn’t raised by their mother-in-law? She promised to help us take care of the child, so she should take good care of the child instead of causing problems all the time. Besides, we’ll have more children in the future. If she’s not even willing to take good care of one child, it would have been better to have my mother come from the beginning.”

"Your mother is coming. She needs five thousand yuan a month. Will you pay for it or should I?"

“My mom has more money, but she’s more responsible than your mom, treats the kids better than your mom, and won’t let my kids go hungry at noon.”

...

When the aunt listened to her daughter-in-law's complaints, she initially felt guilty.

Later, seeing that she was going too far and even rolled her eyes at her, she turned around and started packing her things.

Throughout her life, she took care of her younger brother when she was young, and after she grew up and got married, she began to take care of her husband and son.

After finally raising her son to adulthood, she thought she could finally be free.

I never expected that with my daughter-in-law's arrival, I would have to work like a slave to serve her and my grandson.

She tried so hard to take care of her, but as soon as her daughter-in-law was even slightly dissatisfied, she would be treated like a servant and ordered around.

She's been through so much in her life, she's truly exhausted.

That's fine, she doesn't owe them anything.

Since she feels that she is not taking good care of the child, then she should find someone she thinks can take good care of the child.

I'm not going to care anymore!

The aunt tidied up a bit; she didn't even have a decent room at her son's place.

She still lived in a windowless storage room, which was not only used as her living space but also crammed with miscellaneous items.

Sometimes when the daughter-in-law comes in looking for something and can't find it, she'll sarcastically ask if a thief broke into the house.

Looking back now, she feels more and more wronged.

Qi Xiufeng had never done anything wrong in her life, but she never imagined that in her old age she would be branded a thief.

Whatever.

Qi Xiufeng packed her things and returned to her hometown with her meager belongings.

Her original plan was to go back and work at Qin Ren's factory.

Nowadays, many people in their town work at Qin Ren's factory.

Qin Ren is kind and generous.

She felt that even if she got old, as long as she worked hard, he would definitely be willing to take her in.

Then Qi Xiufeng took a car all the way back to the town. Just as she was about to go back to the village to put the luggage she had brought back at home.

She met Qin Ren sitting in a car on the side of the main road in town.

Qin Ren was quite surprised to see her. He quickly got out of the car and asked, "Aunt Feng, why are you back? Is something wrong at home? I happen to have a car, I can give you a ride home."

Qi Xiufeng quickly waved her hand and said, "No need, no need, I'll just take the tricycle back."

"By the way, how's SuSu doing? Did he misbehave at lunchtime?"

"No, Susu is such a well-behaved child, she looks like a little prince."

Qi Xiufeng absolutely adores Su Su.

People her age love children, especially those who are good-looking and well-behaved.

Thinking of this, she felt a little reluctant to part with her grandson.

But when she thought of her grandson's mother, who always looked at her with a face that said she owed her something, she decided to harden her heart.

You can't blame her for being heartless; she always felt that if she didn't leave soon, she would be driven to death by that woman.

She couldn't understand it either; she wasn't a bad mother-in-law and had never bullied her daughter-in-law.

I don't know why, but ever since my daughter-in-law gave birth, my attitude towards her has changed.

She probably felt that having given birth to a son gave her a higher status in the family, so she began to show her true colors.

"Then, why are you back now?"

“I don’t want to stay in the city anymore. I’m always looked down upon by young people in the city. I’d rather go back to the village and work in a factory.”

Qin Ren understood immediately upon hearing this; they were all from the same village.

He was also aware of Qi Xiufeng's family situation; his daughter-in-law, Qi Xiufeng, also came from a rural background.

When she first married into Qi Xiufeng's family, she was quiet, seemed very honest, and always kept her head down.

Qi Xiufeng's family treated her very well, fattening up their daughter-in-law, who was thin and bony when she entered the family, until she became plump and healthy.

Qi Xiufeng's daughter-in-law was in poor health and had difficulty conceiving, so she went to great lengths to take her to see doctors everywhere.

But later, the daughter-in-law successfully gave birth to a baby boy.

The woman's attitude changed; she no longer kept her head down, but straightened her back and her temper grew increasingly worse.

When Qin Ren returned before, he once went to Qi Xiufeng's house to deliver New Year's gifts.

Qin Ren heard her shouting and cursing in the yard, but he didn't know what she was saying.

Every time Qin Ren gave her two elders a New Year's gift, she would take it and open it immediately before the elders even saw it.

She would also hold her son and ask Qin Ren for a red envelope with a grin.

She would say, "Look who's here! It's the big boss of our village. Baby, quickly ask Uncle Big Boss for a red envelope so you can buy new clothes."

Qin Ren couldn't argue with a woman, so he had no choice but to give her the red envelope she wanted.

Of course, he gave her the red envelope not out of respect for her, but mainly out of respect for his uncle and aunt.

Qin Ren: "Auntie, do you want to work in the factory?"

“Yes, if I don’t go to work at the factory, my daughter-in-law will definitely make me help them take care of the children if she sees me idle at home. She thinks I’m dirty and that I don’t take good care of them. I don’t want to go there and see her attitude.”

“You don’t need to go to the factory. How about coming to my house instead? My husband’s child is still young, and my husband is very busy. I can’t be home often either, so we need an elder to help take care of the child. Of course, you’ll have to pay me when you come to my house. I’ll pay you 20,000 yuan a month. We have a cook and nanny now, but she’s still an outsider, so I’m not very comfortable with her. I didn’t have any elders to take care of me when I was little. My aunt used to cook for me a lot, so I trust her character.”

Qi Xiufeng wanted to say, what merits does she possess?

They actually offered her a salary of 20,000 yuan. That's 20,000, not 2,000.

Her son gave her two thousand yuan, but he didn't give it to her readily, and later he simply stopped giving it to her altogether.

Even so, her daughter-in-law still felt that she owed her something, and found fault with her every time she looked at her.

She genuinely hadn't expected that Qin Ren would want to hire her as a nanny and offer her such a high salary.

"No, no, no, I'm just a roughneck, I'm not a good cook, I'm not worth this money..."

"It's okay, just take good care of the child for me. In my opinion, that's worth the money."

Finally, Qin Ren took her to her home and told her about it to her husband, who was also Qin Ren's uncle.

Because Qin Ren paid him a high salary and was a junior he had watched grow up, he wasn't worried about any bad rumors.

In addition, the old woman really couldn't stay with her son anymore, so sending her to work for Qin Ren would also shut up her daughter-in-law's complaints.

After some thought, the uncle finally agreed to Qin Ren's request.

"Alright then, let my old lady enjoy a good life with you."

Qin Ren ate at their family's house when he was a child, so it's not wrong to say that he enjoyed a life of luxury with Qin Ren.
