"Okay, the deputy director's family is obviously a very particular family!" Zhang Aiping nodded.
Xuemei looked at Xiaozhong, who was drinking porridge in Zhang Aiping's arms and hadn't stopped for a while, and asked, "Sister Zhang, has Xiaozhong stopped breastfeeding now?"
"It's been a while since we've been running out of food. Your brother-in-law and I have already found someone good. It's the aunt of the family behind our house. She's well-educated, sensible, clean, and efficient. Starting next month, Xiaozhong will be sent to her house. The price won't be much lower, though.

Only then did Xuemei nod.
