Zhou Mingwu has a square face and looks rather fierce, so it's a bit funny when he makes a squinting gesture at this moment.
Wang Cuixiang couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Zhou Mingwu, do you know that your face shape isn't suitable for such childish actions?"
Zhou Mingwu said nothing when he heard this, just looked at her gently and dotingly.
After she had laughed enough, he rubbed her head and said, "Are you happy now? Then tell me why you were unhappy just now."
Wang Cuixiang's eyes widened. "Did you figure it out?"
She thought she had covered it up well.
Zhou Mingwu hummed.
Wang Cuixiang: ...
Just tell him what is bothering you right now.
Then he asked Zhou Mingwu, "Do you have any good candidates to recommend?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Cuixiang realized that she had asked a stupid question.
Zhou Mingwu was born in a steel plant compound, and all the people he knew were from the steel plant's family compound.
How could the people there possibly come to the countryside to take care of her sister?
"have."
Wang Cuixiang sighed, "Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask that question... What? You said yes?" Wang Cuixiang confirmed.
"Who is it? Do I know him?" Wang Cuixiang was a little unconvinced that Zhou Mingwu really had any candidate.
Seeing her distrust, Zhou Mingwu glanced at her and said lightly, "I know her."
Without further ado, he said directly, "The person I want to recommend is Aunt An from your village."
"Aunt An?" Wang Cuixiang pondered.
This is a good choice. "But isn't Aunt An helping out with relatives in the city?"
The term "helping out at relatives' homes" here is used externally, and actually means being a nanny in someone else's home.
However, hiring a nanny is not allowed nowadays, so the host family usually tells others that the nanny they hire is a relative.
Zhou Mingwu said, "The mother-in-law of the woman who owned the house where Aunt An used to work came. Seeing that her grandson was close to Aunt An but not to her, she became dissatisfied and dismissed Aunt An."
"So you should go find Aunt An to take care of your sister now. It should be okay." Zhou Mingwu said.
After listening to Aunt An's situation, Wang Cuixiang was silent for a moment before finally asking, "...How did you know all this?"
Zhou Mingwu: "When I was returning to the village with Aunt An, I chatted with her on the way and analyzed it based on the content and tone of our conversation."
Wang Cuixiang: ...
As they were talking, they had already returned to Wang Cuilan's house.
Wang Cuixiang led the people into the house and said as she walked, "Please speak softly in the house. My sister is still taking a nap. Don't disturb her."
Wang Cuixiang kept nagging and continued.
Zhou Mingwu interrupted, "I don't think that's necessary. Our sister is awake now."
"Sister-" Looking at the person who appeared at the bedroom door, Zhou Mingwu greeted Wang Cuilan with a smile, and at the same time handed her the fruit in his hand.
"I heard Xiangxiang say that eating more fruit is good for pregnant women, so I bought some fruit to see you. I hope you don't mind."
Reaching out to take the thing Zhou Mingwu handed over, Wang Cuilan said, "Why would I dislike it? I'm so happy that you came to see me."
"But forget it this time. Don't buy anything next time you come."
Zhou Mingwu agreed verbally, but no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.
Wang Cuixiang had been watching her sister and her fiancé as they were chatting, and waited until they finally finished talking.
Wang Cuixiang immediately stepped forward and told her sister what she had heard at her cousin's house.
"Sister, it's better for us not to let Aunt Guiyun take care of you. Otherwise, I'm worried that if Qian Dani does something bad..."
Wang Cuilan frowned and thought about it. She felt that her sister's worries were not unreasonable. But if Aunt Guiyun was not suitable, who else in the village was suitable?
There are many capable aunts and sisters-in-law in the village, but they all have families to support and cannot leave.
Wang Cuilan was still wondering who was suitable when she suddenly heard her sister mention Aunt An.
Wang Cuilan's eyes immediately lit up.
She found Aunt An that afternoon, but Aunt An was a little hesitant about Wang Cuilan's request.
Aunt An is a girl from the Wang family. She has an older brother and two younger brothers. As the only girl in the family, she is quite favored at home.
This led to her developing a naive character, and when she was eighteen or nineteen years old, she fell in love with an orphan.
Her parents disagreed, but she insisted, determined to be with that man even if it meant breaking off relations with her parents.
As long as parents truly love their children, no one can be more stubborn than their children.
Because of Aunt An's insistence, her parents gritted their teeth and agreed to her marriage to her husband.
And so the two got married.
The next year, Aunt An became pregnant.
Everything was going in a good direction, but at this time, Aunt An's husband suddenly disappeared.
No trace was found anywhere.
In the second year after marriage, the year her child was born, Aunt An lost her husband inexplicably.
Aunt An's parents felt sorry for their daughter and wanted her to remarry, but Aunt An refused to agree and said she wanted to wait for her husband to come back.
In those days, even families with able-bodied laborers had a hard time making ends meet, let alone women who had to live alone with their children.
In order to support her daughter, Aunt An handed the child over to her parents and went to the city to work as a nanny.
