Chapter 427: Choosing a Nanny (Page 1/2)
As soon as Huo Junshan came back, he found Liao Sijie there. Although he didn't like his aunt's daughter very much, he didn't say anything.
Liao Sijie left after lunch. Huo Junshan asked Xiao Ya, "What did Sijie come here for today?"
"I guess they want us to beg Dad to find a way to get my sister and her family back."
Huo Junshan chuckled, "Your niece isn't doing this for her parents, she's obviously doing this for herself.
She is pregnant now and there is probably no one to help take care of the child, so she wants her dad to bring your sister back.
When your sister comes back, she will definitely help her take care of the child, which will make things much easier for her."
Xiao Ya sighed, "Ye Yunchu lives alone in the city and doesn't take care of any of his three sons, let alone help Sijie take care of the children.
Sijie also knew that no one would help her child, so she wished that my sister could come back, so that she would feel much more relaxed.
"Haha, your niece has a lot of ideas. She asked her to help take care of the baby when Xiao Man gave birth.
She just thought it would be nice to have a nanny to help her take care of the children, but she didn't think about what kind of family could use a nanny.
Lin Jing's salary is not low, but even if his family is rich, they dare not hire a nanny. So, Liao Sijie has set his sights on your sister.
Xiao Ya understood what Huo Junshan meant. To put it bluntly, Liao Sijie had grown up during the two or three years he spent in the Huo family.
If her father-in-law hadn't helped, her sister's family wouldn't know where to find hard labor, maybe just herding cattle and picking up cow dung.
If her son hadn't asked her to take care of Xiao Man, she wouldn't know where she was in the mountains. Marrying a pilot? No one would dare marry a farmer.
The reason why Lin Jing chose her was that he wanted to get close to Xiaoman. After all, at that time they all thought Xiaoman was his biological sister.
The second reason is that he wants to make friends with the Huo family for the sake of their reputation, otherwise how could he marry her.
In order to get married smoothly, Liao Sijie published an advertisement in the newspaper to sever ties with her parents. Of course, this was also agreed by her sister, otherwise how could Liao Sijie marry Lin Jing so smoothly.
However, this matter still had some impact on Lin Jing. For example, her son could apply to study in the Soviet Union, but Lin Jing's application was not approved.
For the next period of time, Liao Sijie came to the Huo family whenever she had time. Xiao Ya sometimes invited her to dinner, and sometimes not.
Song Jingjing was bored taking care of the child alone. When Liao Sijie came over, she would chat with him, either talking about men or the child.
Once, Xiao Ya went to see Lin Man, and Liao Sijie also went with her. Lin Man naturally knew why Liao Sijie came with her.
Isn't it just to let them know that Xiao Ya really likes her niece? Lin Man doesn't care whether her mother-in-law really likes this niece or not, it has no impact on her.
When Liao Sijie came, she treated her like an outsider. There was no problem with greeting her, chatting with her, and drinking a cup of tea, but she would not take the initiative to invite Liao Sijie to have dinner at home, let alone treat her as a relative.
Xiao Ya also knew that Lin Man didn't really want to see Liao Sijie, so she put down her things, chatted for a few minutes, and then left with her people.
That night, Lin Man complained to Huo Qingci about Liao Sijie, "Your cousin is due in a month, and yet she still has so much energy running around."
"I guess she's worried. My aunt said she's taken some leave. If she can't leave, there's no one to take care of her during childbirth and confinement."
"If your aunt can't come back, she'll probably send a telegram asking your mother to take care of her."

"My mom has to start working in mid-July. Song Jingjing's family found her a nanny to help take care of the child. So my mom went back to work."
"Oh, I see. Where does the babysitter live?"
"We should still live with my parents. Ling Fei is dead, and Song Jingjing doesn't dare to move in with the child."
Lin Man remembered that Ling Fei had lived in that new house before. Before she died, Song Jingjing lived there without saying anything. After she died, Song Jingjing always felt that the house was haunted and did not dare to live there.
Lin Man looked at Huo Qingci and said jokingly, "According to what you said, if Ling Fei died, would the house be uninhabitable?
After all, Ling Fei married your brother and has been living in your room. But now, Song Jingjing is still living in that room and hasn't even changed her bed. Isn't she afraid?
In comparison, Huo Qingyan's new home at least had a new bed, so I don't know what Song Jingjing was afraid of.
If your brother comes back and finds out that Ling Fei is no longer alive, do you think he will go looking for trouble with the Wang family?
Huo Qingci pondered for a moment and replied, "It's hard to say. Before their divorce, the relationship between him and Ling Fei was indeed quite good.
Although he later reluctantly married someone else, everyone knew that he had not completely let go of Ling Fei.
If he came back and knew that Ling Fei was gone, he would feel sad, but the dead cannot be resurrected, so there is no point in being sad.
People should look forward to the future while they are alive. The dead should live well for the living. The one they loved is gone, but the one who loved them is still there.
After hearing this, Lin Man couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. She thought that Song Jingjing was really unlucky. Huo Qingyan really liked Ling Fei before.
Later, when they got married, he was a little reluctant. Song Jingjing wanted to develop feelings for him, but he went abroad not long after they got together.
After being abroad for two years, he was going to forget Ling Fei, but when he came back he found that she was dead. Maybe he would remember her for the rest of his life.
Lin Man sympathized with Song Jingjing's situation very much. She found a divorced man to marry, but when the man married her, he still hadn't forgotten his ex-wife.
She thought she would forget about it after a while, but Huo Qingyan's ex-wife died. She couldn't possibly be jealous of a dead person, right?
Huo Qingci placed his hand on Lin Man's belly and gently stroked it, "Manman, there will be two nannies coming to our house tomorrow. You can keep whichever one you think is suitable."
"Where did it come from?"
"My grandfather asked someone to recommend them. One of them used to be a caregiver in a nursing home, and the other used to be a nanny in a certain leader's home, and they had worked there for seven or eight years."
"Oh, so these two are quite experienced. How old are they?"
"One is thirty, the other thirty-eight."
"What about their own children? Don't they have to take care of them?"
"Their children are all grown up, right? Even if they are not, they still have their parents-in-law to help take care of them."
"Come back at noon. You have good taste, so I'll let you choose."
"Manman, you should choose. But if you let me come back, I will come back to take a look."
The next morning at 11 o'clock, Uncle Zhang came with two women. Huo Li asked Lin Man to take a look first, and then asked the two women to go to the kitchen to cook their specialties.
Since you want to be a nanny, you must learn to cook. If you can't even cook well, you will be eliminated in the first round.
