Two days later.
Yan Tai County.
More than half of spring had passed, and the air that was filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants gradually became warmer.
Outside the County's Public Security quarters, Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian were holding each other's hands. They had just returned from the supermarket at the commercial street. There are prawns, yellow croaker, and crabs. They had bought so much food because Chief Dong had called to inform them that he will be returning to Yan Tai County before noon, and his mother might be coming over. Yu Meixia is very grateful to Chief Dong and wanted to cook more food to show her gratitude.
When they entered the quarters, a middle-aged couple walked out.
"Oh, Sister Yu. Are you out to buy groceries?" The middle-aged man greeted her warmly.
Yu Meixia replied. "Yes. I'm here to buy groceries. Nice to meet you, Director Sun." Yu Meixia does not know Director Sun's full name and does not know his official position. But from everyone addressing him as Director Sun, he should be a leader in the County's Public Security. His rank should not be higher than Chief Dong.
The middle-aged man laughed. "What Director Sun? Sister Yu, just call me Old Sun in the future."
Yu Meixia does not dare to address him as Director Sun and stood there awkwardly.
The middle-aged man laughed. "When is Chief Dong coming back?"
Yu Meixia did not tell the truth. "Errr … I also don't know." She knows she cannot tell the man everything.
The middle-aged woman smiles and looks at Yu Qianqian. "You are Qianqian? You are so pretty. Which grade are you in? "
Yu Qianqian shyly moved closer to her mother. "Aunty, Uncle, I … I am in Year 7."
"You are already so pretty when you are in Junior High. What will you look like when you grow up?" The woman praised. "You will be as pretty as your mother in the future."
Yu Meixia blushed. "Thank you for your compliments."
The woman hugged Yu Meixia's hand. "Sister Yu, we still have something on and need to leave. If you are bored at home, you can drop by my place for a chat. My apartment is on the first floor. You should know the door on the left and right." The woman looks at Yu Qianqian. "Qianqian, I am leaving. Come over to my place some other time."
Yu Qianqian lowered her head. "Ok. Bye, Aunty, Uncle."
After they left, Yu Qianqian asked. "Mum, why did they call you Big Sister? They are older than you."
Yu Meixia sighed. "We are all because of Chief Dong. They are not as high-ranking as your Brother Dong, and that's why they are so polite to us." These few days, Yu Meixia had gotten used to the attitude of the people in the quarters. After Chief Dong went to Beijing, two people came to Yu Meixia with gifts. They seem to want her to help them ask Chief Dong for help. Yu Meixia did not dare to accept the gifts and rejected them politely.
Now, everyone in the Public Security Quarters knows about Yu Meixia and her daughter. It was not only because they were staying at Chief Dong's house as his nannies, but also because of their stunning looks. Chief Dong is at his hot-blooded age, and he suddenly hired two housekeepers. Anyone would be suspicious. Are they really housekeepers? How could such a beautiful person be a nanny? Could she be Chief Dong's mistress? Is the mother or the child? Many people felt that she was a mother, while others felt that she was a daughter.
Of course, no matter if she is a mistress or a nanny, it will not change everyone's attitude.
It couldn't be helped. The word "nanny" seemed very ordinary and inconspicuous, but when it came to the leader, the meaning was very different.
Secretaries, chauffeurs, nannies, these people around the leaders were also very important. Secretaries were the mouthpieces of the leaders and carried the halo of the leaders behind them. Their significance was self-evident. But when it came to relatives, many secretaries were not as good as chauffeurs and nannies. Needless to say, chauffeurs were better than chauffeurs. When leaders were handling private matters, they would not look for secretaries, but instead, they would look for chauffeurs. Secretaries might not know who they were going to at night or who they were secretly having dinner with, but chauffeurs would definitely know.
Nannies are also the same. They will take care of the leaders' daily needs and sometimes even take care of the leaders' parents. Who can compare to a nanny? Many times, it's not good to look for the leaders directly. It's better to use their relationship with the nannies.
"Sister Yu." Someone walked over. It was Qin Yong, who was about to leave.
Yu Meixia quickly greeted him. "Chief Qin!"
Yu Qianqian also greeted him. "Uncle Qin."
"Haha, you call Chief Dong your brother. How can you call me Uncle? When did I become so old? "Qin Yong joked.
Yu Meixia got a fright. "Chief Qin, she is still young and is just calling me that. Please … don't mind her."
Qin Yong was speechless and thought to himself that these two girls have no sense of humor. He smiled at her. "It's fine. Just call me Uncle. Anyway, I am not young anymore. Hahaha …" Qin Yong walked closer to Dong Xuebing and asked softly. "Did Chief Dong say when will he be back?"
Yu Meixia hesitated. "… he will be back in the afternoon."
Qin Yong nodded. "Ok. I will ask him to come back in the afternoon. Alright. You two can continue with your work. I am leaving."
"Goodbye, Chief Qin." Yu Meixia knew about Qin Yong and Dong Xuebing's relationship. That's why she did not tell Chief Dong when Director Sun asked her about his return.
On the way back to the quarters, a few people greeted Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian politely. Yu Meixia is afraid she might say something wrong and embarrass Chief Dong. She is very careful with her words. Even if she is greeting Dong Xuebing, she will think for one to two seconds before she opens her mouth. After entering the building, Yu Meixia heaved a sigh of relief. She is filled with complicated emotions. In the past, no matter where they go, people will look at them with contempt or greed. But now, Yu Meixia finally tasted the feeling of being respected. Sometimes, people will even fawn over her and compliment her. Yu Meixia knows it's all because of Dong Xuebing.
"Qianqian, when Chief Dong's mother arrives, you must not say anything. Don't make her angry."
"Qianqian?"
Yu Meixia called her daughter twice, but she did not reply. She turned around and saw Yu Qianqian looking at a child who was returning home with a school bag. "What are you looking at?"
Yu Qianqian replied excitedly. "Mum, I … I also want to go to school."
Yu Meixia hugged her daughter softly. "I had asked you before the Labor Day holiday. Our household registration is not in the County, and the schools here will not accept us. If you go back to your village to continue your studies, where are we going to stay? What about my job? " Before Dong Xuebing left, he had given Yu Meixia one month's salary in advance. Yu Meixia had enough school fees now, but transferring to another school is a problem.
Yu Qianqian is a sensible child, and tears rolled down her cheeks. "Mum, it's alright. I … I don't want to go to school."
Yu Meixia's eyes turned red. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry."
Yu Qianqian hugged her mother. "Mum, I'm the one who burdens you. I'm sorry."
"Don't say silly things. Let's go upstairs."
When the mother and daughter entered the apartment, they saw a middle-aged woman inside.
… …
Noon. Dong Xuebing returned to the Public Security Bureau quarters.
Dong Xuebing had settled all his matters in Beijing, and his Auction company is on the right track. His relationship with Chief Liang Chengpeng had also improved. Chief Liang's mother had just passed the critical period, and the monitoring devices had been removed. Chief Liang's wife should be staying behind to look after her. Chief Liang should be returning to Yan Tai County tomorrow, and when he returns, Dong Xuebing can start to improve the village's security. Even if he offends someone, as long as it is not too stressful, Liang Chengpeng will help Dong Xuebing.
It's good to have someone at the top!
Dong Xuebing went upstairs and opened the door with his keys.
"Dong … Chief Dong, you are back?" Yu Meixia quickly got up from the sofa and ran over to get Dong Xuebing a pair of slippers.
"Big Brother." Yu Qianqian also poured a glass of water for Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing looked at them. "Yes. I'm back. Eh? Mum, you are back too?"
Luan Xiaoping, who was sitting on the sofa, responded with a faint "En" sound.
Dong Xuebing was puzzled and looked at his mother. "Mum, what's wrong? Who made you angry? " Dong Xuebing is used to being served by Yu Meixia, and he took off his shoes and placed them on the slippers. Yu Meixia bent over and placed his shoes neatly on the shoe rack. Yu Qianqian also walked over and passed Dong Xuebing a teacup. After Dong Xuebing took a sip, Yu Qianqian took the teacup back.
Luan Xiaoping looked at her son, who is acting like a boss. "Xiao Bing, come with me!"
Dong Xuebing followed his mother into the bedroom and closed the door behind him. "What's wrong?"
Luan Xiaoping pointed her chin outside. "Xiao Yu, what's wrong?"
"What do you mean what's wrong? Didn't I tell you that I had hired a housekeeper? "
Luan Xiaoping had heard about this over the phone, and she did not think much of it. Her son is now a Deputy Bureau Chief, and it's normal for him to hire a housekeeper. But when Luan Xiaoping saw Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian's beautiful faces, she got suspicious. "Housekeepers are everywhere. Why do you need to hire such beautiful housekeepers? Don't let others gossip about you! "
Dong Xuebing smacked his lips. "Let them say whatever they want. I am not afraid of being accused."
Luan Xiaoping asked helplessly. "Tell me the truth. Are you interested in them?"
"Ah … Mum, what are you talking about? Sister Yu is older than me by ten years, and Qianqian is younger than me by ten years. How can I be interested in anyone?!" Dong Xuebing will never admit to it. He cleared his throat and explained. "I felt sorry for them. When I met them, they were begging on the streets. Sister Yu's husband had passed away, and her family owes them a lot of money. Hmmm … I was the one who helped them repay their debts." Dong Xuebing told his mother about what happened to Yu Meixia.
Luan Xiaoping calmed down when she heard Dong Xuebing's story. "Sigh … they are just like us."
"That's right. That's why I helped them. I don't mean anything else."
Luan Xiaoping's sympathy was overflowing. "Yes. You did the right thing."
After leaving the bedroom, Dong Xuebing saw Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian looking at the door nervously. They could tell Chief Dong's mother is unhappy with them and are afraid Luan Xiaoping will chase them out. Luan Xiaoping sighed in her heart and held Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian's hands. "My attitude earlier was not good. I hope you all don't mind me. I had heard about what happened between you all. Just stay here and let Xiao Bing know if you have any problems in the future."
Yu Meixia thanked Luan Xiaoping. "Sister Luan, thank you."
Yu Qianqian also said. "Thank you, Aunty."
Luan Xiaoping laughed. "Don't mention it. I still need to trouble you all to take care of Xiao Bing in the future. Come, let's eat."
After dinner, Luan Xiaoping pulled Yu Meixia into the bedroom for a long chat. From time to time, they could hear laughter coming from the bedroom. At about 2 pm, Luan Xiaoping received a call and left after saying a few words to Dong Xuebing. The final exams are around the corner, and Luan Xiaoping had just entered the County's First Middle School. She is afraid people will gossip if her two classes do not score well. That's why she had been working hard this month.
After Luan Xiaoping left, Yu Meixia said. "Chief Dong, your mother is a good person."
Dong Xuebing laughed. "What did she say to you?"
Yu Meixia blushed and looked at Dong Xuebing's face. "No … nothing. I … I will go and wash the dishes."
Dong Xuebing is puzzled. Why are you blushing?
Yu Meixia did not dare to tell Dong Xuebing what she said. Luan Xiaoping was still worried and told Yu Meixia to call Luan Xiaoping if Dong Xuebing "bullied" her. She will teach her a lesson. Yu Meixia is experienced and knows what "bullied" means.
At about 4 pm, Deputy Bureau Chief Qin Yong called to ask Dong Xuebing out for dinner.
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing said. "Sister Yu, don't prepare dinner for me. I will go out for dinner."
Yu Meixia, who had just finished cleaning the kitchen hood, walked out and looked at Dong Xuebing hesitantly.
Dong Xuebing blinked. "What's wrong? What's wrong? "
"I … I … can I massage your back?" Yu Meixia walked over to Dong Xuebing.
Yu Qianqian, who was watching TV on the sofa, blushed and pretended not to see Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing looked at Yu Qianqian. "I don't want to massage you. Just tell me if you need anything. I still need to go out later."
"I … I …"
"Do you need money? It's fine. You can take it from the cabinet. I will also give you one month's salary in advance. "
"It's not that." Yu Meixia hesitated for a while and finally said. "I … I want to let Qianqian go to school. Now, I have the school fees, but the school says our household registration is still in the village and cannot accept Qianqian. Can you … can you transfer Qianqian's household registration to the County? I … I know you had helped us a lot, and I cannot repay you in my life. This … this is the last time I beg you. Please … "
Yu Qianqian's eyes turned red. "Mum …"
Dong Xuebing slapped his forehead. "You should have told me earlier. The summer holidays are in about a month, and I thought you want to let Qianqian go to school next semester. You want to transfer your household registration to another school? Alright. You don't need to worry about this. I will help you contact someone and ask. "
Before Dong Xuebing left for Qin Yong's appointment, he called the County's household registration department. Actually, Qianqian does not need to transfer her household registration to another school, but Dong Xuebing can help her to the end. After that, Dong Xuebing contacted the County's First Middle School's Principal. He told him that his friend's child wants to enter their school, and the Principal agreed without hesitation.
After dinner, Dong Xuebing returned home after drinking some wine.
Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian were watching TV hand in hand when they heard the door open. They immediately stood up. This time, Yu Meixia was more attentive than before. When Dong Xuebing entered the apartment, Yu Meixia squatted down and helped him to take off his shoes. Yu Qianqian was also looking at Dong Xuebing's face with her big eyes. She wonders if the transfer to another school and household registration is going to go through.
Dong Xuebing put down his bag and laughed. "Sister Yu, you and Qianqian can go and settle the paperwork tomorrow. I had found someone to transfer your household registration to the County."
Yu Meixia's mind went blank. "Chief Dong, I … I can also transfer my household registration?"
Dong Xuebing nodded. "You can transfer your household registration here. It's better here. Errr … if you are not willing, it's fine."
Yu Meixia quickly replied. "Yes. I am willing."
Dong Xuebing continued. "Ok. Qianqian's school has been found. It is the County's First Middle School, a top middle school. My mother is teaching there, and she can take care of Qianqian. Tomorrow, you can bring Qianqian to school and pay the school fees. It's fine if you can't transfer your household registration yet."
Yu Meixia and Yu Qianqian got excited. Top middle school? County's household registration? This is something they did not even dare to think about in the past!
Yu Qianqian's tears rolled down her cheeks. She hugged her mother and cried. "Mum, I can go to school now!"
Yu Meixia sniffled. "Hurry up and thank Chief Dong!"
"Thank you, Big Brother."
"Don't mention it. Just study hard in the future."
Yu Meixia looked at Dong Xuebing gratefully. "Chief Dong, I … I …"
Dong Xuebing waved his hand and rubbed his head. "Chief Qin can really drink. I almost fainted. Sister Yu, can you prepare some bath water for me? I need a bath."
"Ok … ok!"
Yu Meixia had nowhere to express her gratitude to Dong Xuebing and quickly entered the bathroom. She filled the bathtub with hot water and some cold water. But Yu Meixia is still worried and is afraid Chief Dong will be scalded. She took a long time to adjust the temperature of the bathtub.
"You can take a bath now."
"Ok. Thank you."
"Leave your clothes over there. I will wash them for you later."
Dong Xuebing paused for a second. This is the first time Yu Meixia asked him to wash his clothes. "Err … ok. Thank you." After Yu Meixia left the bathroom, Dong Xuebing starts to remove his clothes and put his feet into the bathtub to test the water temperature. After that, he sat in the bathtub and closed his eyes.
Five minutes …
Ten minutes …
Knock, knock, knock … Dong Xuebing heard someone knocking on the door.
Dong Xuebing opened the plastic curtains of the bathtub. "What is it?"
Yu Meixia asked from outside. "I … can I enter?"
Dong Xuebing thought Yu Meixia is here to bring his clothes. "Come in."
The door opened, and Yu Meixia entered the bathtub with a red face. She could not see Dong Xuebing through the plastic curtains. She hesitated for a while and clumsily closed the door and locked it. "Chief Dong, I … I am here to help you wash your back."
Dong Xuebing paused. "No need. Accompany Qianqian to study. It's almost the end of term exams."
"I … I had asked Qianqian to sleep." Yu Meixia really wants to repay Dong Xuebing, but she does not have the energy to do so. She hesitated for a long time and finally made up her mind. She coaxed her daughter into her room and entered the bathroom. "I … can I open the curtains?"
Dong Xuebing slapped his forehead. I am still naked, and how are you going to help me wash my back?!
Dong Xuebing tried to persuade Yu Meixia, but she refused to leave. He is not as thick-skinned as Xie Huilan and grabbed a bottle of shampoo. He squeezed out a lot of shampoo and rubbed it on the surface of the bathtub. This way, no one can see him. "Come in."
Yu Meixia's hands were trembling as she opened the curtains. She turned her head to one side and dare not look at Dong Xuebing. "Then … turn … turn around."
"Just apply some shampoo." Dong Xuebing turned around and showed his back to Yu Meixia.
Yu Meixia gritted her teeth and squatted in front of the bathtub. She squeezed the bath liquid on her hands and rubbed Dong Xuebing's back with her soft hands. She massages, massages, and massages his back. Even her ex-husband, Yu Meixia, had never treated Dong Xuebing like this before. Yu Meixia suppressed her embarrassment and started to scrub Dong Xuebing's back.
A few minutes later, Dong Xuebing had forgotten all about the embarrassment in his heart!
It is different from the massage through his clothes. This feeling is too comfortable!
Yu Meixia saw Chief Dong closing his eyes and asked. "Can I help you wash your hair?"
Dong Xuebing nodded.
Yu Meixia poured some shampoo on Dong Xuebing's head and rubbed it with her hands while pinching his scalp.
"Ah … you are so good." Dong Xuebing closed his eyes and enjoyed the massage.
After Yu Meixia finished washing her hair, she put her hand into the water and pinched Dong Xuebing's feet. "Let me massage your feet for you." Dong Xuebing nodded. Yu Meixia's face was red.
Dong Xuebing moved his feet away. "Ah … never mind. Goodbye."
"No … it's fine as long as you feel comfortable." Yu Meixia is going all out today. She closes her eyes and does not dare to look into the water. She placed Dong Xuebing's leg on the edge of the bathtub and massaged it carefully with both hands. After a while, she changed to the other leg and started massaging him from top to bottom.
Dong Xuebing lowered his head and looked at Yu Meixia's neckline. He was satisfied visually and physically!
Sigh … where can I find such a caring helper?!
