Before dinner, Wen Qiao asked Su Mei about the three children.
Su Mei naturally only reported good news and not bad news.
Wen Qiao said, "My fever has subsided, but I still have a bit of a cough. Bring the children over after dinner so I can take a look."
Su Mei hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.
Just now, while hesitating, Su Mei was thinking, should she ask Mr. Shen for his opinion on Wen Qiao wanting to see the children?
In that instant, she seemed to realize something.
She then said, "Comrade Xiao Qiao, you're the one who asked me to work as a nanny in the Shen family, so I should listen to you."
“A while ago, I saw my husband with a cold face, and I was afraid that I wasn’t doing well and he would want to kick me out. I subconsciously wanted to listen to what he had to say. But now, I understand that I should serve you and the children.”
"Comrade Xiao Qiao, do you think what I did was right?"
Wen Qiao had actually noticed Su Mei's problem; her eyes and her service were always aimed at satisfying Shen Jichuan.
She focused on the wrong thing.
The Shen family hired her as a nanny so that she could take care of Wen Qiao and the children.
Shen Jichuan's bad attitude towards her stemmed from the fact that on several occasions, Su Mei always asked for his opinion first, instead of asking Wen Qiao immediately.
Wen Qiao didn't bring it up because she wanted Su Mei to figure out the key to the problem herself.
Unfortunately, Su Mei never realized it.
Before Su Mei said those words tonight, Wen Qiao had also thought about what Shen Jichuan had told her: if things didn't work out, she should replace Su Mei.
If Wen Qiao hadn't overheard Shen Jichuan's reprimand at the door, she wouldn't have known that Xia Keke was eavesdropping on them.
No wonder, several times when she went out to use the restroom, she would see Xia Keke wiping the table with a rag in the living room.
She thought it was because Xia Keke was sensible and was taking the initiative to help her mother with some housework.
Listening to Su Mei's words, Wen Qiao said softly, "It's not too late for Sister Su to think things through now. It's just that the previous situation with Ke Ke didn't affect me much. But now, she always walks around my door. After all, she's a child, and even if she's well-behaved, she'll still make noise. Her presence does disturb me."
"If Sister Su wants to continue working for the Shen family, she should send her child to school."
"Of course, if you're worried, I can give you double the salary, and you can use the money to make a living elsewhere."
"I wasn't helping you back then; I just happened to need someone to take care of me. There's no debt between us."
Su Mei's eyes were slightly red, and she was touched that Wen Qiao was so good to her.
"Comrade Xiaoqiao, your magnanimity and the way you speak are truly beyond your years. I am very grateful to you."
"I still want to work for the Shen family."
Su Mei worked for the Shen family because they treated her and her child very well and paid her a high salary.
The most crucial point is that she wants Shen Jichuan's help to find her husband.
"Comrade Xiao Qiao, can I ask you for a favor?"
Wen Qiao frowned, not agreeing immediately. "Tell me what it is first, and I'll know if I can help after I hear it."
"I... I wasn't eavesdropping. I overheard the housekeeper of Director Xu's family in the political department of the division saying that the division was going to the research and development site, and my husband was at the research and development site..."
As Su Mei spoke, her expression became excited.
“I actually wanted to ask you for help, but before I could even speak, you gave me a cold look, so I didn’t dare to ask any more questions.”
As Su Mei spoke, she gave a dry, bitter smile.
"I just want you to help me ask around and find Xia Mingxuan. Xia Mingxuan is the father of my child and my husband."
After Su Mei finished speaking, seeing that Wen Qiao remained silent, she didn't know what else to say...
