Chapter 214 The Nanny Arrives (2/2)

After putting all three children to sleep, she let Lin Han lie down and sleep for a while, then took the used diapers downstairs.

Grandma Jiang was very satisfied with Aunt Li. She had put a lot of effort into choosing her, carefully selecting her, just in case there would be any unnecessary trouble after she actually started working with her.

Looking back now, Aunt Li seems like a good person after all.

As soon as Gu Hong stepped into her house, she noticed a strange face busily washing a child's soiled clothes. Curious, she quickly walked over and asked suspiciously, "Who are you? What are you doing here? Why are you washing a child's soiled clothes right away?"

Aunt Li looked up at the sound and explained with a smile, "Oh, I was invited by Grandma Jiang to help take care of the baby and Lin Han during her postpartum period."

Upon hearing this, Gu Hong couldn't help but feel a surge of envy. Good heavens, Lin Han is so lucky! She herself had three children back then, and she didn't even get a proper month of confinement. She basically had to go back to work in the fields just two days after giving birth.

Moreover, she raised all three children herself. The older child would come with her to work in the fields, while the younger one she could only carry on her back. But no one ever offered to lend a hand or anything like that.

Thinking about this, Gu Hong felt increasingly resentful. She thought bitterly: What's so special about Lin Han? Why does she get to enjoy such treatment?

Gu Hong inquired, "How much do they pay you?"

Aunt Li assumed Gu Hong was also a member of the Gu family, so she didn't hide anything. "She took care of me until I was out of confinement, and gave me fifty yuan. Because it was triplets, she gave me more."

She used to earn twenty yuan a month taking care of younger children and a dozen yuan a month taking care of older children. Grandma Jiang's family had three babies, and they were generous, paying her fifty yuan directly, saying that as long as she worked well and they were satisfied with her performance, they would give her a red envelope when she left.

Aunt Li was originally a military dependent, but she was too old to work, so she helped take care of the children of these leaders.

These are all permitted by the military. Basically, those who ask her for help are couples who are busy with work and whose children are too young to go to kindergarten. In order to ensure that key soldiers and technicians can devote themselves to their work, the political department has approved eligible families to ask unemployed military spouses for help.

This approach ensures that families with both children and jobs can focus on their work without worry, while also allowing unemployed military spouses to increase their income.

Grandma Jiang's family meets the criteria for hiring someone to help take care of their child.

First of all, both Gu Huaiming and his wife have to work, and Gu Qizheng also holds an important position. Old Mrs. Jiang and Old Mr. Gu are getting old and have limited energy. Moreover, their granddaughter-in-law gave birth to triplets, and it's impossible for the two old folks to take care of them all.

So the Political Department also approved the application, which is how Aunt Li got her new job.

When Gu Hong heard that it was fifty yuan, she was stunned. She felt that the fifty yuan should have been hers, but it had ended up in the pocket of Aunt Li in front of her. She felt so heartbroken that her breathing became heavy.

"Fifty, that's quite a lot."

After saying that, Gu Hong turned and went to the kitchen, where Xiao Ya was helping to watch the chicken stewing on the stove.

She leaned close to Xiaoya's ear.

"Do you know how much money the person who came to help got? Fifty, a full fifty yuan."

Good heavens, I wish I had this money, why give it to a stranger?

"I can take care of the children myself; it's just letting outsiders make money for nothing."
