After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

Chapter 2411: Hire a New Helper

After Xia Yang had his fill of milk, Xia Zhe held Qiao Mei’s hand and led her back to the bedroom. She had been really tired out during this period of time and needed a good rest.

Qiao Mei sat in front of the dressing table and combed her hair. All of a sudden, she thought of something and raised her head to look at Xia Zhe, asking, “Are your higher-ups still assigning you new missions? How long will you be able to stay at home?”

Xia Zhe had already been back for a few months. By right, a young cadre like him should not be so free and there should be many secret missions that he needed to take part in. She did not know what reason he had given the military to take such a long break this time round.

“They didn’t say anything this time round. Don’t worry, I still have a long vacation break ahead of me. There might be other missions coming up though. It’s hard to say because my identity is fairly awkward now, so I can’t really show my face around,” Xia Zhe said as he stood beside Qiao Mei.

Qiao Mei was scared that Xia Zhe’s new mission would be a dangerous one again. She did not think she would be able to go through another round of stress. She was already exhausted after everything that happened to the children. Every time she received an urgent call from Yao Nian, she would feel chest pains.

“Don’t worry, I won’t leave all of you again,” Xia Zhe said.

After washing up, Xia Zhe and Qiao Mei went to bed. They snuggled together and fell asleep in peace.

The next morning, Xia Zhe woke up quietly and left the house. Qiao Mei continued to sleep until the afternoon. Everyone was already used to this. When she opened her eyes, she saw Xia Yang sleeping obediently beside her.

Feng Hua had no other choice. For now, Xia Yang only recognized Qiao Mei. If anyone else tried to carry him, he would cry. There was nothing they could do.

“Where’s Xia Zhe?” Qiao Mei called out for Feng Hua to come into the room and asked while rubbing her eyes.

“He went out early in the morning and said that he would be back for dinner tonight,” Feng Hua said.

Qiao Mei nodded in acknowledgement. Qiao Mei never asked about Xia Zhe’s matters. If it had anything to do with her, he would take the initiative to tell her when he returned. It was useless for her to worry too much.

“Sister Feng, I want to discuss an issue with you,” Qiao Mei said as she drank some warm water.

“Sure, sure,” Feng Hua said immediately.

Qiao Mei stopped to think for a long time before saying, “You’ve worked for me for a long time and you’re like part of the family. I can also tell that you’re taking really good care of us. I’ve realized recently that there are too many things to do at home. Now that there is one more child in the family, I want to ask you if you’re willing to let me hire another person to help take care of us.”

Feng Hua felt extremely nervous just now. She was worried that Qiao Mei wanted to fire her. She did not really care about how much she was paid. By now, she really could not bear to leave these four children. She had been taking care of them from the moment they were born. During this time, she treated them like her own biological grandchildren and already had deep feelings for them.

“Of course! You can do whatever you want! Just… just don’t fire me. I really can’t bear to part with the children,” Feng Hua said.

“Why will I fire you! I’m still hoping that you will stay here for the rest of your life! When you’re old, I’ll get the children to take care of you,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“No way!” Feng Hua said in surprise.

“Why not! You are the one who has brought them up. Although I’m their mother, I don’t even spend so much time with them. I should be thanking you. The children have all been brought up very well,” Qiao Mei said gratefully.

Tears welled up in Feng Hua’s eyes. She had worked as a helper to many different families throughout her life and Qiao Mei was the first client who was so nice to her. She was more than willing to work hard here for the rest of her life!

“Since you’re alright with the idea, then I’ll go ahead and hire another person. You just need to take care of the children. The new person will do the cleaning and cooking every day,” Qiao Mei said.

“Alright, whatever you say,” Feng Hua said.

After the discussion, Feng Hua brought Xia Yang to the hospital for a checkup. Xia Yang was turning one month old soon, on the day after tomorrow. Qiao Mei had yet to discuss with her family what they wanted to do for Xia Yang’s one-month-old celebration.

That night, Xia Zhe, Xia Wen and Xia He came back to Qiao Mei’s house together. The two siblings made it sound like they were here to discuss Xia Yang’s one-month-old celebration, but in reality, they were here to enjoy a free meal!

“Do you have any ideas about holding a one-month-old celebration? Should we do the same thing as what we did in the past?” Qiao Mei asked.

“We are fine with anything, but it does seem that Mother is not in favor of organizing a one-month-old celebration,” Xia He said slowly after taking a sip of tea.

After all, the child had gone through so much recently. Xu Lan did not want to show Xia Yang to appear in front of too many people. Nowadays, whenever the four children were at a crowded place, Xu Lan would be very nervous, worried that the children would be abducted.

“That’s true. Xia Yang is a lot more timid than his siblings. He’s probably traumatized by what happened this time round. It’s better if he is not surrounded by people,” Xia Wen said.
