Chapter Seventy-Four: A New Helper
When Tong Yingjie and Shao Hongxia complained that their daughter turned her face and refused to admit mercy, Tao Chunhua was surprised that her daughter was "distressed" about her.
This morning, she had just warmed the milk for her granddaughter, peeled out the yolk of the boiled egg, crushed it with a spoon, and prepared to feed An An with complementary food.
The doorbell rang suddenly.
Tao Chunhua dropped the bowl and spoon in her hand, wiped her hands on her clothes, and walked towards the door with some doubts.
Outside the door stood a middle-aged woman with short black hair.
"Hello, big sister." The woman greeted her in a tone and expression that Tao Chunhua was familiar with.
Tao Chunhua looked up and down:
She was about forty years old, and her hair was thick and stiff, slightly permed, but a handful of it was stubbornly skimmed in other directions.
She has some dark skin, a lot of wrinkles, and a very honest appearance.
She wore a fuchsia tweed gown, gray-black straight-leg pants, and a pair of white sneakers on her feet. The shoes are very clean, but they are yellow.
Tao Chunhua was too familiar with such a person, she immediately became alert, wrinkled her brows, and asked:
"Who are you? What are you doing at my house? ”
"Eldest sister, I'm good to come to the nanny shop again and recommend me for an interview......"
Before her words were finished, she was pushed out by Tao Chunhua.
The moment Tao Chunhua closed the door, she shouted in a low voice: "You are looking for the wrong one!" Let's go! ”
Her eyes frightened the eldest sister with short black hair, and the man nodded again and again, and walked out.
Tao Chunhua closed the door, stared at her viciously from the cat's eye and walked out of the stairwell, before turning around and walking towards the living room.
Zhu Rui would jog on the treadmill for half an hour every morning. At the moment, she had just taken a shower and walked out of the bathroom. Seeing that his mother's expression was wrong, he asked, "What's wrong?" Who is it? ”
Tao Chunhua suddenly fell to the ground, tears and snot flowed down together, she cried: "You have no conscience, you want to drive me away again, right?" It's going to be years before your brother comes out, and you want me to die out there alone! ”
Zhu Rui was startled, Chen Fangyu walked out of the kitchen with a toothbrush in his mouth, and grabbed Zhu Rui's hand tightly with one hand.
Zhu Rui touched his head and suppressed his emotions and said, "You have something to say." ”
Tao Chunhua wiped a handful of snot with her cuffs and said, "I won't leave anyway, you just found a nanny to do the work, and I won't leave!" ”
Zhu Rui suddenly realized, she walked forward quickly, Tao Chunhua knew that she was going to open the door, sat on the ground and hugged her legs.
"You let go!" Zhu Rui was most disgusted with her mother's behavior, and she couldn't wait to slap her away.
"O daughter! You can't be so unconscionable. Tao Chunhua cried even more fiercely.
"Mom!" Chen Fangyu ran over and made a gesture to hit his grandmother.
Zhu Rui was shocked, why did he grab his hand and yelled at Tao Chunhua: "Don't make trouble!" I'm looking for a babysitter, not driving you away! What are you fooling around?! ”
Tao Chunhua's crying stopped abruptly, her face was still covered with fresh tears, and she looked up suspiciously.
"Really?"
"yes!" Zhu Rui grabbed a handful of tissues angrily, wiped them on his pants, threw them into the trash can in disgust, and said, "Did you just drive away someone?!" ”
Tao Chunhua tilted her body, stood up from the ground, and nodded.
Zhu Rui gasped, took out his mobile phone, and called the nanny again.
In the morning, three nannies came to the house one after another, but Zhu Rui did not let her participate in the interview. At first, Tao Chunhua still had some inner drums, no matter what happened to Zhu Rui, she was doubting in her heart: Did she offend her uncle last time? He instigated Zhu Rui to invite her away.
But after everyone left, Zhu Rui handed her a piece of paper and said:
"I think this person is not bad," not asking for her opinion, Zhu Rui was just expressing his attitude, but the content she wanted gave Tao Chunhua a reassurance.
Zhu Rui said: "Li Cui, Sister Li." I think it's quite realistic, you can take care of the children and cook, and I can give you a hand in the future. ”
Tao Chunhua took a look at the photo, and it was the first woman to come over in the morning - the forty-year-old woman with short hair. She pretended to say: "No one in this group can compare to me." ”
Zhu Rui glanced at her and said, "I changed jobs." I'm going to report to the new company in Nanjing next week. I don't worry about you alone, find someone to deal with the trivial matters at home, and you will help me take An An and Chen Fangyu to school."
"Are you really going to Nanjing? Is Chen Zhiyuan in the same company as you this time? Tao Chunhua seemed to remember something, leaned over and asked, "Didn't you before, did Bao go to school in Nanjing?!" Are you still fooling me! ”
Zhu Rui touched An An's hair, glanced at his mother and said, "How to go?!" There is no house in Nanjing, what good school can I go to?! ”
"Let Chen Zhiyuan buy it!" Tao Chunhua became shrewd again, and said: "Let those two old ones pay some more money, I also like Nanjing!" ”
Originally, Zhu Rui had a lot of things on her mind, and she couldn't listen to her mother's words, so she rudely interrupted her mother.
"You don't have to worry about anything else. I would go home every time, and it would take me three hours to drive back and forth. I haven't figured out the status of the new company, so I guess I'll go home late. You're alone at home with two children, and I'm not at ease. ”
"Don't worry, you weren't the ...... I pulled at the beginning" Tao Chunhua Niu didn't blow up, but he was frightened back by Zhu Rui's cold eyes.
Zhu Rui did not tell Tao Chunhua about the divorce. She was worried that her babbling mother would scare the two children, so she simply hid it.
So far, Chen Zhiyuan has not sent her a single message or made a single phone call. Of course, she didn't have Sakura either
It's just that the children will also use her mobile phone to link to Chen Zhiyuan's WeChat to start a video chat.
Whenever this happens, Zhu Rui automatically avoids it. Unlike in the past, videos end in a hurry. The atmosphere of the whole family is actually strange, and Tao Chunhua can also feel it keenly.
"Chen Zhiyuan won't go home this week?" She leaned over and said, "You can't do this, it's been a long time, push my uncle out, and I can't pull it back." ”
Seeing that Zhu Rui didn't speak, she flattened her mouth boringly, and asked without words: "What do you have to go out for, you go out early and return late every day, and it's not safe to work hard." ”
"Earn money." Zhu Rui simply threw out two words.
"You, you're still the most similar to me, and you don't admit defeat." Tao Chunhua's pride was suffocated by Zhu Rui's eyes, and she sighed: "I had a hard life in the first half of my life, and men can't be trusted." The boss finally opened his eyes and told my daughter to have a chance. I, Tao Chunhua, can be regarded as having endured hardships! ”
If it's like this, Tao Chunhua will go up several times every time. Every time, Zhu Rui felt disdain. But when I heard it recently, she had a different emotion in her heart.
This person she once wanted to get rid of completely has now become the only helper she can rely on.
Zhu Rui couldn't help but feel powerless and helpless.
