Chapter 102 Gentle Mother
The Song family mother and son acted quickly. They had just moved into the house not long ago and they didn't have many things. When Xu Youyou just came downstairs, their things had already been packed.
"Boss, I'm looking for a house according to your requirements. After screening, I feel that the community where you live is the most suitable. There are also vacancies for rent there. The agent said that we can move in today, but the rent is very high. If you don't think it's suitable, I have a few alternatives." Xu Fang said in a low voice.
Xu Youyou glanced at Xu Fang's several options and was very satisfied that she had selected so many houses in such a short time. She decided on the spot: "Just rent the Tomson Yipin. Don't worry about this little money."
Xu Fang's heart trembled when she heard this. A monthly rent of 130,000 yuan was just a small amount of money in the eyes of the boss.
When the Song mother and son got into Xu Youyou's car, they both felt it was unreal.
"Don't worry, after what happened today and we've moved to a new place, the Shen family won't come to cause trouble again." Xu Youyou comforted Song's mother.
Mother Song nodded, but her eyes kept moving back and forth between Xu Youyou and her son.
When Xu Youyou arrived at Tomson One, the real estate agent was already waiting. Xu Youyou took a look at the house and confirmed that it was fully equipped and ready to move in. Only then did she remember the two little girls and told Song's mother the whole story.
"Aunt, those two children are pitiful. There is no suitable female elder in the company. I am not at ease leaving them to other people. After thinking about it, you are the best at educating children. You have educated Xiao Song so well. I think you are the most suitable person."
Xu Youyou spoke sincerely, saying "I will educate" all the time, which made Song's mother's mouth curl up.
"I won't let you take care of these two children in vain. The company will sign a formal labor contract with you and clarify the content of your work. The five insurances and one housing fund and your salary will not be reduced." Xu Youyou said with a smile.
Song's mother waved her hands and said, "Because of my affairs, my mother and I don't know how much money we owe you. Miss Xu, I am just taking care of the children. I feel sorry for these two children when I hear you say that. Don't mention the reward. Just think of it as my love for the two children. As long as you agree to let me quit my job as a caregiver..."
Xu Youyou saw that Song's mother was in very good condition now, so she didn't force the caregiver to stay. However, regarding the company's affairs, she was very determined and said, "Aunt, please don't say such things. It is only natural to receive reasonable compensation for the work. If you don't agree, then I can only find someone else."
Song's mother was afraid that Xu Youyou had put her trust in the wrong person. These two children were already pitiful enough. If they met a bad nanny, they would suffer even more. "Okay, okay, auntie really can't argue with you."
After convincing Song's mother, Xu Youyou went back to the company in person to pick up the two sisters.
Now that the two children were wearing clean clothes, they looked even more pitiful.
The clothes were obviously bought according to their sizes, but now they were hanging loosely on the body, and the exposed arms were as thin as sticks, which easily reminded people of old photos from the last century.
Song's mother felt a lump in her throat. She was a teacher in a public school before marriage, but she resigned after her husband became rich. After the divorce, she had been out of touch with society for many years, so she could only work as a substitute teacher in a private school.
As a teacher for many years, Song's mother couldn't bear to see her children suffer like this, so she hugged the two little girls in her arms on the spot.
"I will take care of you from now on, and I promise you will be fat and healthy."
The two children had lost their mother for many years, and the other female elders in the family only looked down on them for being girls. They had not felt such a warm embrace for a long time, and for a moment they even thought their mother had returned.
Ye Xiaomei quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and asked softly: "Can I call you mom? I haven't called you mom for several years..."
At this time, the sister also looked at Song's mother with longing.
Mother Song's nose was sore and tears fell: "Of course."
She didn't have a daughter, and seeing the two children being well-behaved and sensible, her heart softened. She turned around and asked Xu Youyou: "Miss Xu, can I...can I adopt them as my goddaughters?"
Xu Youyou smiled and said, "If you are willing, that would be great."
Xu Youyou has great faith in Song's mother. Since she was able to raise a son with such good conduct as Song Zhibai, the mother's character must be good too. Through her words and deeds, the two children will surely not go astray.
After explaining everything clearly, Xu Youyou got up and left the Song family.
Although they both live in Tomson One, this apartment is not in the same building as Xu Youyou's, but the distance is very close, just a few minutes' walk.
After dinner, Song's mother watched TV with the two children for a while. When she felt it was about time, she took out two clean bath towels and greeted the two children with a smile: "It's time to take a bath. Children should not watch TV too late."
When the two children were at home, they almost took care of all the housework in the family and had no chance to watch TV at all. In fact, they like watching TV very much and their eyes are glued to the TV at this time.
But as soon as Song's mother opened her mouth, no matter how reluctant they were, they still followed her into the bathroom obediently.
The house that Xu Fang found is said to have four bedrooms, but in fact each bedroom is a suite, so each bedroom has an independent bathroom.
Song's mother took the two children into the bathroom, but did not leave immediately. Instead, she said, "I don't know what the rules are in your hometown, but here, mothers have to help their daughters take a bath at least once."
The two children simply couldn't refuse such a gentle request from Song's mother.
Song's mother started by running hot water and then applying shower gel to the children, and her movements were all slow and gentle.
The two children seemed to be aware of something. They kept their eyes wide open, saw clearly what Song's mother was doing, and quietly learned how to use these modern bathing facilities.
The two children originally had their own rooms, but the sisters were used to staying together and insisted on sleeping in the same room at night. Song's mother understood that the two had just moved to a new place and might be afraid, so she did not stop them.
When there were only two sisters left in the room, Ye Xiaomei felt the soft bed beneath her, but still felt that everything was so unreal.
"Sister, am I dreaming?" asked Ye Xiaomei.
In response, her sister held her hand tightly.
"I'm not dreaming. We...we really live in such a big house, and we can eat meat in the future..."
The younger sister rolled directly into her elder sister's arms. The elder sister felt that the clothes on her chest seemed to be soaked by her younger sister's tears, and she gently patted her younger sister's back.
"I really hope that every day in the future can be this happy..." my sister whispered.
The image of Xu Youyou’s smiling face appeared in the elder sister’s mind, and she said softly, “Yes… She won’t lie to me… I will definitely be able to do as she says… and become a great singer…”
The two sisters cried together for a while, and then, unable to bear the exhaustion any longer, they fell into a deep and sweet dream.
Song's mother quietly opened the door, covered the sisters with the quilt that had been pushed away, closed the door quietly and left.
Song's mother turned and walked towards the farthest bedroom. She knocked on the door and only walked in after hearing "Come in".
Song Zhibai didn't sleep either. After seeing his mother, he paused the movie playing on the projector in front of him.
Mother Song sat down next to her son and asked directly without any euphemism, "Do you have any thoughts about Miss Xu?"
