The servants were also reliable people that Qin Zongye helped introduce, and they were quickly in place. Ye Shuning also took a look and was quite satisfied, so she kept two of them.
One of the two servants was a childless widow in her forties from the mainland. She had no life skills when she arrived in Nangang, so she just worked as a servant.
She had previously worked as a housekeeper for a family Qin Zongye knew. Because she cooked well and was patient, she had always served the elderly, and the family had a good opinion of her. Now that the elderly man was gone, the family no longer wanted to employ her.
Just as Ye Shuning needed someone, he introduced her to Ye Shuning.
The other servant was a seventeen-year-old girl. As one of many children in her family, she had not received much education and had to start working early. Because she was rather honest and dull, she was often bullied outside.
However, the little girl is very capable and will not be lazy or slack off, so she is very suitable for Ye Shuning.
It would be no problem for these two people to clean the house, do the laundry, and cook. This way, even if Ye Shuning is not at home, Li Jingyu will have someone to take care of him.
Two days later, Li Shaoting returned with a tall and burly man in his thirties.
After Li Shaoting's introduction, Ye Shuning learned that this big brother's name was Sun Tiancheng, he was 29 years old this year, and had been in Nangang for almost half a year.
Although Sun Tiancheng is tall and strong and looks a bit rough, he is actually shy and introverted. His face turned red after talking to Ye Shuning for a few words.
Ye Shuning said, "Brother Sun, Brother Li should have told you about my situation. I need a bodyguard to protect me. I provide food and accommodation here, and the monthly salary is 3,000 yuan. What do you think?"
When Sun Tiancheng heard this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "It doesn't need to be that much. Just give me one thousand yuan."
He can't do much, but the company provides him with food and accommodation and he lives in such a nice house. How can he ask for such a high salary?
Li Shaoting said, "Don't argue, just listen to me. Xiao Ning, you are just starting out, so I will give you 2,000 yuan a month. When your conditions improve, you can raise Tiancheng's salary.
He worked as a laborer at the docks and had poor food and shelter. At least his living conditions have improved greatly since he joined you. He has free food and shelter, and his salary doesn't cost much."
Ye Shuning nodded and said, "Then give me 2,000 yuan first. I will provide two sets of clothes every quarter. They will be considered as work clothes for employees."
With three more people in the family having to be paid, Ye Shuning also felt pressured and had to earn more money.
After Ye Shuning moved, Li Jingyu also transferred to a nearby school and was picked up and dropped off at school by his family every day.
Ye Shuning also bought herself a car, and Sun Tiancheng would pick her up and drop her off wherever she went every day, which was much safer.
Even if Li Shaoting wanted to stay in Nangang for a few more days, he couldn't. He had to go back after finishing his work. He was reluctant to leave his son, but there was no other way. Now he couldn't take his son back, so he could only keep his son with Ye Shuning.
Fortunately, his son has adapted to being with Ye Shuning and his academic performance is also very good. Li Shaoting is still quite relieved about his son.
Knowing that Li Shaoting was leaving, Ye Shuning made a special purchase, including clothes and nutritional supplements for her father, things for Li Shaozhong, and gifts for other members of the Li family.
The things packed together filled up two large bags, leaving Li Shaoting dumbfounded. "This is too much, right? I'll have to get checked when I get back."
Ye Shuning said, "I don't have anything sensitive here, just some clothes and nutritional supplements. It's okay even if I check it."
Li Shaoting had a special pass, so it was no problem for him to take these things with him. He shook his head and had no choice but to agree to let Ye Shuning take all the things back.
Ye Shuning also wrote a letter to Li Shaozhong, which was a reply to his previous letter. Since she couldn't see him in person, she wrote a few words in the letter to let him know her feelings.
When Li Shaoting left, he did not let Ye Shuning see him off, but asked Sun Tiancheng to drive him to the customs passenger inspection office.
Before getting off the car, Li Shaoting instructed, "Tiancheng, Xiao Ning is now in your care. Protect her well."
Sun Tiancheng said, "Shao Ting, don't worry. I guarantee with my life that I will protect Miss Shuning and Jingyu."
After Li Shaoting left, Ye Shuning felt lost for a while, feeling very uncomfortable with the sudden absence of someone at home.
She devoted most of her energy to filming.
The first place Li Shaoting went to after returning to the mainland was Li Shaozhong. He had to give him the things that Ye Shuning brought for Li Shaozhong and the others.
Li Shaoting had the key to Li Shaozhong's house, so he went directly to the courtyard where Li Shaozhong lived.
Li Shaozhong was very excited to see his elder brother back home. He asked first, "Brother, have you seen Xiao Ning?"
Li Shaoting rolled his eyes when he saw his younger brother asking about Ye Shuning the moment they met. "You've really forgotten about me now that you have a wife. Everything went smoothly when I went to Nangang this time, and I got to see Xiao Ning. She's doing well and is currently filming a new movie, which she's directing. Jing Yu is also doing well."
Li Shaoting then recounted Ye Shuning's recent situation in Nangang, then said earnestly, "Shaozhong, Xiaoning is a piece of gold. Now that she's shining, someone will definitely be interested in her. That Qin Zongye is interested in Xiaoning, I can see it clearly.
He's an elite figure, rich, powerful, and well-regarded, and he's also quite good-looking. If someone like him pursues Xiao Ning, you should know how powerful he is. Now that Xiao Ning has wealthy relatives like the Yan family, she's sure to attract the attention of some young talents in Nangang.
It's not safe for Xiao Ning to be alone in Nangang. Gangs are rampant in Nangang, and now that Xiao Ning is famous, there's no guarantee they won't target her. No matter how you look at it, you should stay with Xiao Ning. Otherwise, whether you can finally marry her is another matter."
Li Shaozhong's heart sank as he listened to his elder brother's words. He wasn't worried that Ye Shuning would change her heart; he still had some trust in her. He was just worried about Ye Shuning's safety. But he also felt a sense of crisis.
He frowned and said, "But it's not easy for me to go to Nangang."
Li Shaoting said, "Everything depends on human effort. If there are no opportunities, we can create them. I heard that we are going to set up an agency in Nangang to handle some business affairs, especially the import of some equipment. We need to find a way through Nangang. After all, Nangang has a superior geographical location and the restrictions in Western countries are not as strict."
If we want to import some things from the mainland, it's easier to open a channel through Nangang. We'll find a way to get you the head of this agency.
You should learn more about the Nangang dialect and practice speaking foreign languages."
Li Shaozhong said, "I have no problem speaking foreign languages. I've also learned the Nangang dialect, so I can go there anytime. I'm also very familiar with business procedures, and I have professional knowledge in chemistry and mechanics. I'm the perfect fit."
