The person who came from outside was none other than Director Li, who had returned from Wen Qiao and Shen Jichuan one after the other and had not shown his face until now.
I wonder what he wants to do here.
Su Mei led her people in, just as Wen Qiao finished getting ready.
He also tidied up the blanket covering Shen Jichuan, and the old man even smiled.
Wen Qiao glared at him, then turned and walked out.
Wen Qiao couldn't be bothered with Director Li, not even giving him a glance.
Su Mei, the family's nanny, was always observant. She pulled up a chair and placed it to the side, then followed Wen Qiao into the living room.
Wen Qiao saw Su Mei about to pour tea.
He shook his head slightly at her.
Someone like Director Li is simply not worthy of drinking their family's tea.
Wen Qiao was chatting with Su Mei in the living room, discussing what they were going to make for lunch.
They also said they wouldn't know how long after the New Year the weather would warm up.
Su Mei glanced at Wen Qiao's stomach.
"I'm afraid by the time the weather warms up and the flowers bloom, you'll be about to give birth."
"That season was perfect, the climate was just right, ideal for postpartum recovery."
Wen Qiao looked at her belly; she hadn't had a moment's peace since she got pregnant.
Wen Qiao hadn't seriously calculated the date of her pregnancy.
We can only estimate the due date by listening to the doctor's estimation of the baby's size.
Fortunately, she was ready to go to the hospital to give birth at that time.
Wen Qiao had told Shen Jichuan that if she wanted to have a baby, she would definitely have to go to the hospital to prepare for delivery in advance.
When Wen Qiao went to the hospital to see Shen Jichuan, she told him about Su Mei.
Shen Jichuan said that as long as the person is good, that's enough; he didn't say anything else.
Knowing that Su Mei had another child, Wen Qiao was naturally worried that Su Mei would be preoccupied with the child and unable to spend time with Wen Qiao.
Shen Jichuan was not satisfied with this.
To him, Su Mei was just a nanny he paid to take care of Wen Qiao's every need.
For Wen Qiao, having Su Mei come to her home to do chores was a mutually beneficial arrangement.
Having experienced despair herself, Wen Qiao could empathize with Su Mei's situation and therefore wanted to help her.
Wen Qiao and Su Mei were also discussing how to arrange things for Su Mei's child when Wen Qiao went to the hospital to give birth...
Suddenly, a low, displeased voice was heard coming from inside the bedroom.
"Director Li, you shouldn't have come to me about this. How do you think I can help you in my current situation?"
"Or you could go find Political Commissar Wang."
Shen Jichuan guessed that Director Li must have contacted Political Commissar Wang first.
Wang Gang clearly didn't agree to let him continue to cheat and shirk his responsibilities, so Director Li had no other choice but to come to him.
Wen Qiao eavesdropped on what was happening inside the house.
I glanced into the courtyard and saw that Deputy Division Commander Sun had come again.
He was holding a piece of meat, bright red, but it was impossible to tell what kind of meat it was.
"Deputy Division Commander Sun, what brings you here?" Wen Qiao asked loudly in the living room.
Deputy Division Commander Sun lifted the things in his hands.
"This is venison we got from outside, Comrade Wen Qiao. Could you process it for us so we can share it?"
Wen Qiao chuckled, "Doesn't Deputy Division Commander Sun have a nanny? Why does she come to my house and ask me, a pregnant woman, to do things for her? That's not appropriate."
Deputy Division Commander Sun chuckled.
“You’re a good cook, and your housekeeper is also quite capable. You give the instructions, and she does the cooking. This piece of meat is just the right amount to nourish Deputy Division Commander Shen.”
Wen Qiao thought so too, as venison is a very nutritious food.
She thought that she would just need to make some venison soup for Shen Jichuan later.
We still have some dried mushrooms left over from making beef and mushroom sauce last time, which should be enough.
Su Mei glanced at Wen Qiao and saw that she didn't say anything to refuse.
