Shortly after lunch, Sister Han found Ye Qing and said, "Xiao Ye, I have something to tell you."

"What's up?"

Sister Han glanced at Chen Lie who was playing with Zhou Zhou Youyou in the distance.

Ye Qing understood that Sister Han wanted to talk to her alone, so she took her to the study.

"Sister Han, what's the matter? Tell me."

Sister Han seemed to find it difficult to speak, and after rubbing her hands a few times, she said, "Xiao Ye, you see, I have been working with you for quite a long time. I came here before Zhou Zhou and You You were born.

Now that they are getting older, it is becoming more and more difficult to take care of them. Can you see if you can give me a raise?"

Ye Qing was stunned after hearing this.

She really hadn't thought about this question.

Because at the beginning she paid Sister Han and Ma Xiaolan more salary than the ordinary nannies outside.

And she doesn’t do as much housework as other nannies.

So I never thought about giving them a raise.

Now that she said that, it was true that Zhou Zhou and You You could run and walk now, and were a little harder to take care of than before. Besides, they had been working for quite a long time, so it was reasonable that they should have had a raise.

"How about a five-dollar increase every month?"

"Okay, okay, thank you, Xiaoye."

Since Sister Han’s salary has been raised, Ma Xiaolan cannot be left behind.

When taking Zhou Zhou and You You out for a walk in the afternoon, Ye Qing told Ma Xiaolan about the salary increase.

Ma Xiaolan quickly waved her hand to refuse, "Sister Ye Qing, the salary you give me is already enough, no need to increase it."

She was a little girl from the countryside who could barely read or write, and it was a kindness of Sister Ye Qing that she could get a salary almost as high as that of a worker.

Besides, Sister Ye Qing gave the house to her two younger sisters at a low price and helped them go to school. How could she think about raising her salary?

This is really heartless.

Ye Qing smiled and said, "This is what you deserve. If you don't do well, I won't give you a raise even if you want it.

And this time the increase isn't just for you, it's also for Sister Han, so just take it with confidence."

As she spoke, she saw Zhou Zhou walking towards the stall selling candied haws, and quickly asked Ma Xiaolan to bring him over.

I just ate half a string of candied haws this morning, I can’t eat any more.

"Why."

Ma Xiaolan agreed and hurried over.

This interruption made me forget about the salary increase.

After coming back from a walk, Ye Qing took Zhou Zhou and Youyou to play with flashcards.

Ma Xiaolan couldn't read and couldn't help, so she went to the kitchen to help Sister Han cook.

"Xiaolan, are you back?" Sister Han asked when she saw Ma Xiaolan come in.

Ma Xiaolan nodded, picked up the vegetables on the table with one hand and answered, "Yeah, I just got back."

Sister Han glanced outside and saw Ye Qing playing with Zhou Zhou and You You in the living room, while Mother Shen was tilling the soil in the garden. No one was paying attention to them. She touched Ma Xiaolan's arm and asked, "Did Xiao Ye give you a raise?"

Because Ye Qing had just mentioned that Sister Han's salary had also been raised, Ma Xiaolan didn't hide it from her and nodded, "Yes."

“How much has it increased?”

"Five dollars."

Sister Han curled her lips and said, "Same, same, my price also increased by five yuan."

While she was talking, Ma Xiaolan had already picked the vegetables and asked, "Sister Han, I've already picked the vegetables. Do you want me to cut them?"

"Cut it off, I'll argue with you later."

"good."

Looking at Ma Xiaolan's back as she cut vegetables, Sister Han curled her lips.

Why should Ma Xiaolan get the same salary increase as her? She does much more work than her. She cooks and cleans the room every day and occasionally takes care of the children. Ma Xiaolan is mainly taking care of the children, so she should get a bigger increase.
