Chapter 405 Finding a Nanny
Qin Yunzhou didn't hide anything and told Director Yang everything clearly.
Zhang Ergou and Wang Xiuer, who were standing nearby, noticed that Qin Yunzhou seemed to have a good relationship with the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, and they panicked.
Before they could say anything...
Director Yang waved his hand and ordered his men to lock the couple up and gag them to prevent them from crying and cursing and disturbing everyone.
"Yunzhou, don't worry, with me here, I will definitely get to the bottom of this."
"If you need anything in the future, just come here to find me. We're like brothers, so don't be shy. Just tell me what's on your mind."
Just by looking at his military uniform, you can tell that he holds a very high position in the military.
The recent events outside have caused quite a stir, even leading to the downfall of some high-ranking officials, whose entire families were sent to lower levels for reform.
At this critical juncture, who would go to such lengths for a house in their hometown when they clearly have plenty of money?
Besides, he used to have a good relationship with Qin Yunzhou, and the two got along well. He also liked Qin Yunzhou's way of speaking and acting, and he trusted Qin Yunzhou's character.
Qin Yunzhou smiled and said, "Alright, I'll leave this matter to Brother Yang."
"Haha, it's nothing, just a small matter. If you have something to do, go ahead and do it. Leave this to me, don't worry, there won't be any problems."
Although the two knew each other before and had a decent relationship, so many years had passed, and they were somewhat strangers when they met again. Director Yang also had the idea of getting along well with Qin Yunzhou.
He's doing much better than Qin Yunzhou, the deputy director. If it weren't for the fact that he's much older than Qin Yunzhou, he wouldn't dare let Qin Yunzhou call him "brother."
Once they reach their position, they can't afford to be careless about interpersonal relationships.
If you help someone now, and they ever need your help in the future, that's what it means to give and take, and that's how a relationship lasts.
"Okay, I really do have something to do, Brother Yang. I'll be going now. I'll bring my wife and kids to visit you and your wife in a few days."
Qin Yunzhou knew that the other party was deliberately doing him a favor, and he accepted the favor.
After all, he is quite busy right now, as he has to find a reliable caregiver for the old lady.
Moreover, it is indeed much easier to handle this matter if the police are involved.
After leaving the police station, Qin Yunzhou didn't dare to delay. He went home and found Old Lady Qin.
Finding a nanny isn't difficult, but finding a reliable one is.
Therefore, it's still best to get a recommendation from a reliable acquaintance.
Although the old lady hasn't been in her hometown for years, she still has a lot of connections. Her old friends are all over the county, and they do all sorts of things.
Even if she can't introduce anyone, she can ask her old friends, and they can quickly find a reliable person.
In short, you can't go wrong with her.
Soon, when Old Mrs. Qin heard that Old Mrs. Xu was now paralyzed in bed, unable to speak, and needed someone to take care of her, she was shocked.
She was startled. "What happened?"
"Is it really that serious? I remember when I wrote to the army last time, Sui Sui's grandma was perfectly fine, wasn't she?"
Qin Yunzhou sighed, thought for a moment, and said, "When he was awake last time, he wasn't this seriously ill. I guess he was afraid we would worry, so he didn't mention it in the letter, only reporting good news."
Grandma Qin thought about it and agreed, "I can handle this. I'll find someone for you right away."
She hasn't been back for so many years, but her old friends are still here.
You can usually find a suitable person by asking around, since these days it's a distant relative in every village.
All we need to do is bring them to our home under the guise of being relatives.
"Okay, Grandma, then I'll trouble you. I'll go with you." Qin Yunzhou nodded, but he was still worried and wanted to keep an eye on things himself.
Things are tense lately, and it's not allowed to do this kind of thing openly.
He himself would be fine if something went wrong, but he was worried about implicating others and causing unnecessary trouble.
As soon as Old Lady Qin took action, she quickly gathered all her old friends together and inquired about them one by one until she finally found someone reliable.
The other party is from the countryside, hardworking, diligent, and experienced, having worked as a nanny for many families.
Having just found out who she was, Qin Yunzhou borrowed a bicycle and went straight to the countryside to pick up the nanny, Aunt Zhang.
Because time was of the essence, this matter was very urgent, and the old lady's current condition meant she basically relied entirely on others for care.
So the price they asked for wasn't low. A live-in nanny that you can usually hire for around 20 yuan was asking for 36 yuan.
This wage is significantly higher than that of most workers in Fengyang County.
Qin Yunzhou agreed without hesitation, but all of this was on the condition that Aunt Zhang did things to their satisfaction and took good care of the old lady.
Money is not a problem. Both he and his wife have jobs now, and their salaries are not low, so they don't need this little bit of money.
But the premise is that this person deserves such a high salary.
Before you start doing anything, all the talk is just empty words. People tend to put on an act before they even begin working, so it's better to just invite them to your home for a short interview.
After observing for a while, you'll understand what kind of person they are and whether they're worth it.
Even if it's an introduction from an acquaintance, we can't be careless, after all, the old lady's health can't withstand any more stress.
So, when Qin Yunzhou took Aunt Zhang away, he made sure to lay everything out beforehand and explain the situation clearly to her.
"Auntie, paying you 36 yuan a month is no problem, and giving you a few more yuan is also no problem. But you should know that this salary is not low. Nobody's money comes from thin air."
"So we'd like to give you a trial period, for a month. You'll get paid the same during that month, but if you're not comfortable with anything about us, we can let you go anytime."
"If you agree, then we'll go; if you don't agree, then forget it."
Aunt Zhang was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding. "Trial work? What does 'trial work' mean?"
"I'm a great worker. When I worked at my employers' houses, they all praised me and didn't want me to leave."
"Don't worry, there won't be any problems. If you think my salary is too high, I can lower it by a few dollars..."
"Auntie, this isn't about money."
Qin Yunzhou raised his hand to interrupt Aunt Zhang.
"We need to have a trial period first. If you agree, we'll continue. If you don't agree, I'll find someone else now."
"We'll only know if you're suitable after you try out the job."
Paying someone so much money isn't for nothing; it's normal to have high expectations and certain conditions.
He didn't force the issue, nor did he hide anything; it was a two-way choice.
