Chapter 924 (Page 1/2)
Song Jingjing looked at Zhang Fen in astonishment, as if she had heard something out of the blue. She asked in disbelief, "Is it common? Is this how you raise your children?"
Zhang Fen quickly shook her head and explained, "I was raised by my mother, and when I grow up, I will help take care of my younger brothers and sisters.
But we don’t have twins in our family, and if my brother and sister were as old as your twins, they would have been able to find food for themselves long ago.”
She paused and continued, "Usually, we just lock them in the room and let them play however they want, as long as they don't run to the pond.
After all, in the countryside, children are raised like cattle. They're not like you city people, who treat their children like precious treasures and get extremely nervous over the slightest bump or bruise.
Zhang Fen's tone revealed a hint of helplessness. She then turned to Song Jingjing and said, "Aunt Song, my mother only tied the two sisters to the tree for a short while because she was busy cooking. Can't you forgive her this time?"
However, Song Jingjing's attitude was extremely firm. She responded bluntly, "I can't forgive you. If you want to intercede on your mother's behalf, then you can go with her."
"But…"
"Don't say but. If I had known your mother would treat my child like this, I wouldn't have poached you and your daughter here at all."
Song Jingjing was very upset. If she had known Xu Xiaomin would treat her child like this, she would never have poached her and her daughter. If she wanted to find a nanny, she should have asked her mother to help introduce one.
It didn't matter if the nanny was a relative from her mother's family. She had hired so many nannies before, but she had never seen one who abused the child like this.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Lihong rode her bicycle to the store to help, just like in the morning.
However, when she walked into the store, she was surprised to find that her daughter had brought her twin daughters to the store.
Tang Lihong walked up to her daughter curiously and asked, "Jingjing, why did you bring Ranran and the others to the store?"
Song Jingjing replied angrily, "Mom, I fired Xu Xiaomin."
Tang Lihong couldn't help but widen her eyes and asked in confusion: "Why did you fire her?"
Song Jingjing took a deep breath, calmed herself, and then said, "Mom, do you know what I found when I got home from closing the shop at noon? Xu Xiaomin had tied my two daughters to a pomegranate tree with ropes!"
After hearing this, Tang Lihong's face instantly turned pale. She asked in disbelief, "What? Why would she do this?"
Song Jingjing's voice trembled a little, "She said Ranran and Yanyan always cry and don't sleep.
She was busy cooking and had no time to look after the children, so she tied them to a tree and would only look at them when she had time.
Tang Lihong's rage was ignited. She shouted angrily, "How can this be! How can anyone raise a child like this? This is simply too much!"
Jingjing nodded. "Mom, I was also very angry at the time, so I fired her directly."
Tang Lihong agreed with her daughter's decision. "Well done! I told you long ago that you must know everything about a nanny before hiring one, but you just casually dug one up from the Huo family. Now you've suffered the consequences!"
By the way, Xu Xiaomin is gone, what are you going to do with her daughter?"
Song Jingjing pulled Tang Lihong aside and whispered, "Mom, once I find someone new, I'll find a reason to fire her. I've noticed that Xiaofen is a bit clueless and not very smart at all."
Tang Lihong glanced at Zhang Fen, who was arguing with a customer, and shook her head. This woman certainly didn't seem very smart. But since her daughter had already made up her mind, she stopped worrying too much.
"Jingjing, what are your plans regarding the nanny?" Tang Lihong turned to look at her daughter and asked softly.
"Of course I will, Mom." Song Jingjing answered without hesitation, "Can you help me find a nanny who can take care of the children and cook?"
Tang Lihong looked embarrassed. "I'll help you look for them again. But now you have to open a shop, and you can't take care of two children by yourself. How about this, I'll help you take one back, so you can relax a little bit."

Song Jingjing thought about it and felt that her mother's suggestion seemed to make some sense, but she was still a little worried.
"Mom, if you're willing to help take care of the children, then just take both of them back. When the new nanny comes, you can send them back."
Tang Lihong's eyes widened. "Leave both children to me? How can you sleep well? I'll take care of one for you, and you can take care of the other one. When you open the shop during the day, bring the children to the store and I'll help you look after them."
Song Jingjing thought about it and felt that this was the only way for now.
After Xu Xiaomin came out of Song Jingjing's house, she went directly to Lin Man's clothing store.
Lin Man looked at Xu Xiaomin with suspicion, wondering why she suddenly came to her.
Before Lin Man could ask, Xu Xiaomin spoke first, "Xiao Lin, are you free now?"
Lin Man frowned slightly and asked cautiously, "Excuse me, what's the matter?"
Xu Xiaomin seemed a little hesitant, but finally mustered up the courage to say, "Have you hired a nanny? I want to go back and take care of the old man and your children."
Lin Man couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard this. She really couldn't understand why Xu Xiaomin would have such an idea.
You know, Xu Xiaomin was fired by her grandfather, and she had been looking forward to Xu Xiaomin leaving for a long time.
Lin Man casually asked, "Sister Xu, didn't you go to take care of my brother and sister-in-law's children? Why do you suddenly want to come back?"
Xu Xiaomin's expression changed slightly, and she looked a little embarrassed. She hesitantly explained, "Xiao Song said I didn't take good care of her two children, so she kicked me out."
Before she finished speaking, Xu Xiaomin gently wiped the corners of her eyes with her hands, and there seemed to be a few tears rolling in her eyes.
However, Lin Man did not have much sympathy for Xu Xiaomin's experience.
She didn't care why Song Jingjing wanted to drive Xu Xiaomin away, nor did she care how Xu Xiaomin lost her job.
After all, when Xu Xiaomin worked in their family, apart from flattering her grandfather, she was not particularly good at her job.
She had no intention of keeping them originally, and now she had no intention of inviting Xu Xiaomin back to continue supporting her.
"Sorry, we've already hired a nanny. With all due respect, instead of coming to me, you should go and say something nice to Song Jingjing."
"Xiao Lin, Xiao Song is a stubborn person. She won't listen to any good words."
Lin Man spread her hands to show that she was powerless. "I'm sorry, I really can't help you. Please go back!"
This isn't a recycling station that specializes in collecting garbage. If she says you're unfaithful once and you won't use it for a hundred times, and she won't use it for the rest of her life, she won't show any mercy to them.
After hearing Lin Man's words, Xu Xiaomin's face turned pale instantly. Her legs suddenly bent as if all the strength had been drained away, and she was about to kneel down.
Seeing this, Lin Man was shocked. She quickly reached out and supported Xu Xiaomin, preventing her from kneeling down in an embarrassing situation.
Lin Man said angrily, "Sister Xu, what are you doing? I'm younger than you, how can you kneel before me? If the customers outside see us, they'll think I'm bullying you!"
Xu Xiaomin's tears welled up in her eyes. She choked up and said, "Xiao Lin, I have no choice! I don't have a job right now, and I have children at home who are counting on me to support them! We are a family of three and we rent a house in the city. The expenses are huge. Please help me!"
Lin Man sighed helplessly and said, "Sister Xu, I really can't help you. We already have a nanny at home, so there's no need to hire another one."
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaomin quickly said, "Have you hired a nanny? Then I can work in your restaurant! I can wash dishes, wash vegetables, mop the floor... I can do anything!"
Lin Man shook her head and said, "We've recruited everyone we should recruit. Sister Xu, I think you should look somewhere else!"
Xu Xiaomin was filled with hatred in her heart. Song Jingjing was a very bad woman and had no integrity. Lin Man looked easy to talk to, but was actually very difficult to talk to.
None of these black-hearted capitalists has a kind heart.
