The ugly concubine counterattacks the beautiful lady, the evil prince should not love her too much
Chapter 148 Visiting Employees’ Homes
Xiao Zhiyuan's house is a rented house, a small courtyard, very simple, with only two rooms, one for Xiao Zhiyuan and one for Xiao's mother.
There were a few bamboo poles outside the yard, with a few sets of clothes hanging on them. They must have been washed by the nanny.
One can tell at first glance that Xiao Zhiyuan is not the kind of man who is particularly good at living. On the contrary, he is a man who makes a mess of his life.
Yang Qianqian frowned. It seemed that he had left all the housework such as cleaning the house to the nanny.
Sorry, the reason I called her "that nanny" is because Yang Qianqian hasn't seen that nanny since she entered the room.
Didn’t you say that you stay at home to look after the baby during the day and go back to your own home at night?
"Mammy's house is very nearby, just two houses away, so it's very convenient to go back and forth. Maybe she went home for something!" Xiao Zhiyuan looked calm.
Well, they are willing to hire an employee who goes home during working hours. It has nothing to do with her.
Or think about it in a positive way. The nanny might have really gone back home because of an emergency, and she will be back soon. After all, Xiao's mother really needs someone by her side.
Yang Qianqian saw Xiao's mother's condition at a glance. Her face was pale, her lips were bloodless, and she could barely speak, let alone get up.
How could she be left lying in bed alone? She would have to get up to relieve herself, but she couldn't do that without help, right?
There was a musty smell in the room, the stove was not lit, and there was only cold water in the teapot. I don't know if it had been boiled or not. Anyway, Yang Qianqian didn't dare to drink it.
Xiao's mother is a very nice person. She smiled quickly when she saw the guests, and her pale face was full of kindness. Xiao Zhiyuan was 23 years old, and Xiao's mother should not be 40 this year (the evil feudal society of early marriage...), but she looked very old.
Wrinkles slowly appeared on the cheeks and the hair turned white prematurely.
It can be seen that when she was young, she was definitely not stunningly beautiful, but just average. It was rare for her to give birth to such a handsome son like Xiao Zhiyuan, so Xiao's father must have been a handsome man.
"Please sit down!" She said to them with a weak smile, "There is no good stool or chair at home. I am sorry for that!"
"Mom, she is my boss Qian!" Xiao Zhiyuan introduced her to his mother as soon as he entered the door.
"Oh, you are Zhiyuan's boss. Our Zhiyuan is doing well in your company. This kid has been smart since he was young, but he is stubborn. Once he has made up his mind to do something, he will do it to the end without any detours. Maybe he is like me..."
When she said this, Xiao's mother suddenly sighed, her face looked very sad, as if she was remembering something that happened long ago.
So sometimes, memories may not be a very good thing.
Luo Suixi was quite casual, and seemed like he came here often. He just found a dust-free chair and sat down, not caring at all whether his clothes, which were as white as a painted wall, would get dirty.
It's really rare to see someone in white clothes who is so close to others. It really subverts the beautiful image of those handsome men in white costumes in ancient times in Yang Qianqian's mind.
"Aunt's illness is still the same, but you need to take good care of yourself!" Luo Suixi naturally grabbed Xiao's mother's wrist, as if they were chatting, but he actually took her pulse.
It seems that he has a good relationship with Xiao's mother and looks more like a son than Xiao Zhiyuan.
Yang Qianqian couldn't help but make bad associations again, so she stopped immediately!
"Mr. Xiao, this is not a good way to go. I think you should find a diligent nanny for your mother as soon as possible.
Look, that nanny hasn't shown up yet. We've been here for half an hour. I don't even know how she treats your mother!"
Yang Qianqian couldn't stand it any longer. How could the mother and son of the Xiao family be so easily bullied? Then she turned to Xiao's mother and said, "Aunt, is the nanny like this all the time?"
Xiao's mother sighed and said, "We only paid one or two taels of silver to invite this family. What kind of guests can we expect? It's enough for them to bring me meals and wash my clothes at mealtime. I can't expect anything else!"
Yang Qianqian almost vomited blood. One tael of silver was not enough for an old maid who did the washing and cooking. The head maid in Prince Shen's Mansion earned twenty taels of silver, which was considered a high salary. If saved for a year, it would be enough for that girl's family to get out of poverty and become rich.
Xiao Zhiyuan's salary in ancient times is equivalent to that of a modern white-collar worker. A modern nanny only earns one-tenth of a white-collar worker's salary. How much more does she want?
"But it's already noon, and she hasn't come to cook!" After thinking about it, Yang Qianqian expressed her opinion.
Well, if her employees are not satisfied, her work will not be satisfied. If her work is not satisfied, she as the boss will not be satisfied.
"She also has a lot of things to do at home, so she will definitely wait until she finishes them before coming over!" Xiao's mother is quite "reasonable".
Yang Qianqian almost rushed up and said to Xiao's mother: Auntie, can we stop being so stubborn? We are being rolled into a ball and then squeezed flat all day long.
Fortunately, Xiao Zhiyuan obviously knew Yang Qianqian's personality, and probably guessed what she was thinking, so he quickly explained.
"My mother and I are both from other places who came to Beijing. We don't know much about the people and things here, but we don't want to offend anyone. There are some things I know, but I don't know how to say it."
To put it bluntly, he is a goody-goody and an honest person, who allows himself to be bullied by a group of people, big and small, and can only be beaten without fighting back or scolded back. In short, he is a baozi!
Yang Qianqian couldn't remain calm, thinking that she was the kind of person who hated evil. Xiao Zhiyuan's personality was similar to that of the fourth Miss Yang back then. The two of them could probably become a perfect couple, which was very good and powerful.
"As long as we keep this kind of person, it's easy to find a diligent sister-in-law with one tael of silver," Yang Qianqian expressed her opinion righteously.
Then he turned around and saw a middle-aged woman standing at the door with a gloomy face. She looked very unhappy, and then she walked in with heavy steps.
Yang Qianqian knew that the expression was for her to see, and she also saw from Xiao Zhiyuan and Xiao's mother's expressions that it was the nanny, so she immediately said rudely: "Oh, who was it? It turns out that the old lady has returned home?"
The nanny didn't say anything, probably because she knew that she was in the wrong. The sun was already setting and it was more than half an hour past dinner time, yet she just came to cook.
But those "hums", "tsks", and little murmurs never stopped.
Yang Qianqian frowned. Just because she called her "old lady", did she really think she was someone important?
