Chapter 205: Chapter 205: 190, What Can a Nanny Sister Do to Help? (Vote for Monthly Ticket)

The caretaker thoughtfully served Yang Hao, her employer, a warm bowl of preserved egg and lean pork congee.

She also peeled a boiled egg for him.

The dining table was also set with a few dishes that Jiang Yuqi had made herself.

Such a breakfast was indeed light and appetizing.

“You seemed quite distressed just now, is there something on your mind?”@@novelbin@@

After they had nearly finished their breakfast, Yang Hao opened up the conversation.

“My younger brother is already on the train to Jiangcheng. We’d agreed that he would stay home and take care of our mother, but he listened to his girlfriend’s suggestion and insisted on coming to Jiangcheng to develop his career.”

Jiang Yuqi didn’t hide her troubles and, with a taut face, relayed her worries.

“Coming to Jiangcheng to make a living might not necessarily be a bad thing.”

“After all, it’s good for a young man to go out and see the world.” Bearing the responsibility of helping his caretaker with her troubles, Yang naturally spoke from the perspective of Jiang Yuqi’s brother.

“Yang, you don’t understand. My brother didn’t even finish high school; he attended a technical secondary school. With no formal qualifications or specialized skills, he can only get factory work or be a waiter here in Jiangcheng, which isn’t any better than staying in our hometown!”

Jiang Yuqi sighed in frustration.

“How old is your brother?” asked Yang Hao.

“He’s 21 this year. Back in our hometown, he worked as a stock clerk in a large supermarket,” Jiang Yuqi briefly explained her brother’s situation.

“When you pick up your brother, bring him to my place. We’ll have dinner at my house tonight; I’d like to meet him.”

As he spoke, Yang Hao gently patted the caretaker’s shoulder: “No need to look so worried, I can arrange a job for your brother.”

“Really?”

The caretaker was suddenly overjoyed. If her employer lent a hand, then her brother’s employment was naturally nothing to worry about.

“Have I ever lied to you?” Yang Hao replied mildly.

“No.”

Jiang Yuqi quickly shook her head and then said with a smile, “Then I’ll thank you on behalf of Hai in advance, Yang.”

Having spent a lot of time together recently, Jiang Yuqi had begun to understand her employer better.

He seemed to have no faults apart from being a playboy. As a boss, he didn’t make hollow promises; he always kept his word, and working for him was comfortable.

Her life as a caretaker was quite luxurious—she would drive a Panamera when shopping for groceries, and she had several sets of Hermès “work uniforms”. She wouldn’t trade it even for a white-collar job.

…

On the train from Changshi to Jiangcheng.

Jiang Xiaohai and his girlfriend Zhang Mei were both quite excited.

The Changshi where they had been living was a prefecture-level city with just over two million people.

Coming to a big city like Jiangcheng from such a small city filled them both with great anticipation.

But along with the excitement, they both felt a bit lost.

Neither of them had much formal education, nor did they have any specialized skills.

Zhang Mei was a cashier at a supermarket, while Jiang Xiaohai worked as a stock clerk. Arriving in a big city like Jiangcheng, they weren’t sure what they could do.

Fortunately, they weren’t without support.

Zhang Mei’s older cousin had set up her life in Jiangcheng and was currently a food and beverage manager at a hotel.

Jiang Xiaohai’s older sister was also in Jiangcheng; she had been a kindergarten teacher but seemed to have switched careers to become a caretaker.

“Hai, my cousin said she’ll come pick us up. Let’s not bother your sister,”

“Didn’t you say she’s working as a caretaker? It should be hard for her to take time off, so we shouldn’t trouble her for now,” said Zhang Mei, while replying to messages from her cousin.

“I’ve already told my sister,”

“She said she would come to the train station to pick us up,” Jiang Xiaohai replied.

“Let’s just forget about it!”

Zhang Mei shook her head and then added, “We should rely on my cousin for finding jobs. I’ve heard she’s a leader in a big hotel, so it shouldn’t be hard for her to arrange something for us.”

“Your sister is just a caretaker and won’t be much help, so we should get on good terms with my cousin first. Once we settle down, we can go and visit your sister.”

“But, she must already be on her way!”

Jiang Xiaohai looked troubled, feeling somewhat annoyed inside. Although his sister didn’t have the capabilities of his girlfriend’s cousin, she was still his flesh and blood. Arriving in an unfamiliar city like Jiangcheng, having his sister nearby would be comforting.

“Then let her head back!”

“Just say someone is coming to pick us up,” Zhang Dan dismissed with a wave of her hand.

“That doesn’t seem right!”

“We’re here anyway, why not have a meal together!”

“I’ll ask her to go back after we’ve had our meal!”

“Besides, we have to see how my cousin arranges things. If there isn’t a suitable job or place to live, we’ll have to turn to my sister. She won’t ignore her brother…” Jiang Xiaohai argued with reason.

“Fine then!”

“We’ve come all this way, even if your sister can’t help, she should at least treat us to a meal!”

Zhang Dan immediately changed her line of thinking, hoping to have her boyfriend’s sister treat them to a meal later.

After that, they would resolve the job and living arrangements with the cousin.

“My sister treating us to a meal is definitely not a problem.”

“It seems being a nanny is quite profitable!” Jiang Xiaohai shrugged his shoulders.

“No matter how much a nanny earns, she’s still just a nanny!”

“Even if I starve to death, I would never be a nanny…” Zhang Dan said with disdain. She had a natural prejudice against the profession of a nanny, feeling that it was a shameful job.

Jiang Xiaohai shook his head in frustration but didn’t know how to argue against it.

After another hour or so, the train finally arrived at the station. Passengers started to squeeze their way out with their luggage, and they followed the crowd off the train.

Jiang Xiaohai carried a suitcase in one hand and a backpack over his shoulders, taking on the task of handling the luggage alone.

Zhang Dan, on the other hand, was only carrying a shoulder bag, her phone in hand, continuously communicating with the cousin who had come to fetch them.

“Dandan, over here.”

Exiting through the station, the welcoming Zhang Mei waved to them,

“Big sister.”

Zhang Mei was the child from Zhang Dan’s uncle’s family, the eldest among her cousins, which was why Zhang Dan called her big sister.

“Big sister, this is my boyfriend, Jiang Xiaohai.”

Zhang Dan introduced her boyfriend to her big sister, Zhang Mei.

“Hello, big sister.”

Jiang Xiaohai took a deep breath and greeted her politely.

“Let’s go, have a meal first.”

“You must be hungry after a few hours on the train!”

Zhang Mei gestured for them to leave, ready to take them to eat.

“Big sister, hold on a moment, my older sister is also coming, she might not have arrived yet…”

While saying this, Jiang Xiaohai sent a message to his sister Jiang Yuqi.

“Big sister, Xiaohai’s sister is working as a nanny; she can’t compare to you,” Zhang Dan whispered into her big sister Zhang Mei’s ear.

“Dandan, don’t be prejudiced against professions!”

“Being a nanny is good too; it pays well, and after all, no matter what you do, it’s about earning your bread with your own hands. You shouldn’t laugh at others for being nannies!”

Although Zhang Mei said this, a condescending smile hung on her face.

She, like her cousin Zhang Dan, didn’t have much respect for the profession of a nanny.

“Xiaohai, over here!”

As the sisters were talking, a voice arose in the crowd; they subconsciously followed it with their eyes, then both of them were stunned.

Because the woman calling Jiang Xiaohai was incredibly beautiful, wearing clothes that looked very expensive at first glance.

“Is that Xiaohai’s sister??”

Zhang Mei was somewhat baffled; working in a big hotel, she had encountered many wealthy people and recognized some luxury brands.

She sized up Jiang Yuqi, who was still a distance away from her, feeling that the clothes she was wearing seemed to be from a luxury brand.

But considering her status, it seemed unbelievable.

A nanny, wearing luxury brand clothes?

That can’t be possible, right?

Or did she sneak out wearing her employer’s clothes??
