Chapter 100 Meet the Babysitter



"Honey, I don't feel any pain anymore."

Fu Wenjing did not stop his movements, and his voice was even gentler than before, "Wife, why are you crying? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere else?"

"No." Su Ruanruan took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "I just think it's great to have you around."

You can be strong when you are alone, but you can't be strong when someone is around you.

It’s not that I’m incapable, I just want to lean on the shoulder of someone I can trust.

Su Runrun slept quite well that night and only woke up once due to pain.

But after waking up, I didn't feel comfortable.

In the later stages of pregnancy, I have to carry a very big belly all the time, which puts pressure on my hips and causes a lot of pain.

Even if I just woke up from a good sleep, my hips on both sides would still hurt a lot.

What Su Ruanruan wanted most at this moment was to lie down and have a sleep, or to sleep on her stomach.

She hadn't slept like this since she became pregnant and she missed it terribly.

Whenever she thought of this, Su Ruanruan hoped to give birth to the child as soon as possible.

But she also knew that it would be better for the baby if it could grow in her belly for one more day.

It would be even better if you can make it to full-term delivery.

Su Runrun sat on the kang and thought about all sorts of things for a while before she realized that Fu Wenjing was not in the room.

Su Ruanruan took a deep breath and smelled the fragrance of millet porridge.

No need to ask, it must be Fu Wenjing who is cooking outside.

Compared to before when I would wake up alone at home, life is so good now!

It was so good that Su Ruanruan couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.

It was at this time that Fu Wenjing lifted the curtain and came in.

"Wife, are you awake? I'll get you some hot water. Get up and wash up, and then you can eat."

Su Ruanruan, who had just woken up, was not actually hungry, but she still agreed.

After washing up and sitting at the table, my mind was completely clear and I was a little hungry.

There was no meat in the breakfast, so it was very light, but it contained all the necessary nutrients. It was obvious that Fu Wenjing had put a lot of thought into it.

While eating, Fu Wenjing said, "Wife, after dinner, I will go out for a while. I asked someone to inquire about the nanny and there is news. I will go meet them later to see if it is suitable."

This is a big deal. Fu Wenjing takes it seriously, and so does Su Runruan.

After hesitating for a moment, Su Ruanruan still said, "Hubby, if there is a suitable candidate, can you bring him back so that I can take a look at him."

Fu Wenjing looked at Su Ruanruan in surprise and amusement, "Wife, what are you talking about? I asked the nanny to come back specifically to take care of you, so I must bring her back for you to see!"

Hearing Fu Wenjing's matter-of-fact words, Su Runrun was stunned for a moment, and then she started laughing.

After breakfast, Fu Wenjing cleaned up the kitchen, arranged Su Runrun, and then went out.

Su Runrun thought that Fu Wenjing would have to be away for a whole morning to get this done.

Unexpectedly, after just over an hour, Fu Wenjing came back with his men.

The person who entered the room with Fu Wenjing was a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her forties or fifties.

Her skin is a little dark and rough, but her facial features are pretty good, and you can tell she was a beauty when she was young.

Her hair was neatly tied up behind her head, and the clothes she wore were not new and had patches on them, but they were clean.

Su Ruanruan's eyes quickly swept over her body and finally fell on her hand.

"Can you show me your hands?" Su Ruanruan asked softly.

Although the woman didn't understand why Su Ruanruan asked this, she still smiled and said, "What's wrong with that?"

As she spoke, she raised her hand.

Her hand joints are thick, the skin on the back of her hands is tanned, and there are many calluses on the palms. You can tell at a glance that she has worked a lot.

However, her hands were clean, even between her nails.

From this we can see that she is indeed a clean person.

Su Runrun actually doesn't have any special requirements for a nanny. As long as the person is honest, hardworking, and clean, that's enough.

Although she was actually quite satisfied in her heart, Su Runrun did not express it directly.

"Auntie, where do you live? Is it close to here? Will my family have any objections if I don't go back?"

The woman smiled and waved her hand. "It's not far, there's a bus. It's only one stop away."

It's okay for me not to go home, my son and daughter-in-law can do it. Besides, there's not much work in the winter, so I'm just sitting there doing nothing anyway, so it's good to go out and earn some money."

After hearing this, Su Ruanruan was completely relieved.

Su Ruanruan looked at Fu Wenjing who was standing beside her. "I don't have any objection. What do you think?"

Fu Wenjing smiled and said, "As long as my wife has no objection, then I have no objection."

In fact, Su Ruanruan also knew that since Fu Wenjing was able to bring the person home, he had already investigated everything and was very satisfied, waiting for her to make the final decision, but she still wanted to ask again.

Now that the two of them had the same opinion, Su Ruanruan looked directly at the woman, "Neither of us has any objection. He should have told you that you don't need to come now. I will invite you to come after I give birth to the baby."

The woman nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, it's already been discussed, I know everything. I've given birth to several children, and I helped deliver and take care of my grandchildren. I can't say I'm very good at it, but I can do what I need to do."

Su Ruanruan listened with a smile, "I still don't know your name, Auntie? How should I call you?"

"My last name is Zhao, and my name is Zhao Juanzi. If you don't mind, you can call me Aunt Zhao."

Su Ruanruan said obediently, "Aunt Zhao, I will trouble you from now on."

"It's not a trouble, it's not a trouble. It's all my duty." Zhao Juanzi waved her hands repeatedly.

After talking about everything else, Su Ruanruan and I talked about salary and compensation.

"Aunt Zhao, I'm afraid you will have to live here. You will eat whatever we eat, and we will give you 12 yuan a month, plus ten kilograms of food. What do you think?"

12 yuan plus ten kilograms of food was already a considerable salary in that era.

You have to know that at that time, the apprentices in the factory only earned 13.5 yuan a month, and they didn’t even receive any extra food.

When Zhao Juanzi heard this, she smiled so hard that her teeth were showing. "Okay! Of course! Do you have any objections? How about I go back and pack up and come over right away?"

The earlier you come to work, the earlier you can get your money and food.

Su Ruanruan understood what Zhao Juanzi was thinking, but still shook her head. "I asked Auntie to come here mainly to help take care of me during the confinement period and take care of the baby. Now I haven't given birth yet, so why do I need Auntie to come and take care of me?"
