After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies

Chapter 441

"She's only sixteen, still just a young girl. Being a nanny is too much of a waste for her. Why didn't you have her go to the hair salon instead and learn a skill? That would be better than this kind of work for a girl," Zhi Xia said.

"I've thought about that too, but you know how headstrong my girl is. She just has a stubborn mule personality. She complains that the child is a dull clod who is rustic and doesn't know how to entertain guests properly. She says she needs to work somewhere with girls who have glib tongues and can cajole and pacify customers, and who dress and look fashionable. She doesn't want to just do menial work," Sister Zhang said with full complaint.

"Listening to you say this, I feel she's actually a good girl. It's just that she really is a bit too young. It's not that I think she can't do the work, just that she's so young, it seems a pity for her to do this kind of work," Zhi Xia said. "Sister Zhang, you know our family's situation. Pei Jing isn't home often, and I'm busy a lot too. We want to find someone a little older here, a bit more mature, preferably over 30 years old. What you said about that girl is a bit pitiable, so let's do this - if she's willing, find her a job at the Red Maple Factory. There are lots of girls there, and it's more suitable for a young girl to be with peers her own age. Coming to a family to be with us all day, wouldn't her personality just become more dull?"

"Oh my, you're so thoughtful. Let me thank you for her first. I'll go speak with her family tomorrow. This is a job she got for free, she'll definitely be overjoyed," Sister Zhang quickly smiled and agreed, then asked, "Do you still need me to help you find someone?"

"You can start looking around first. I'll look on my end too. There's no hurry, after all it's someone who will be in our family. It would be even worse to find someone bad rather than not find anyone," Zhi Xia said.

"You're right, sometimes the more urgent something is, the less you can be urgent about it. Being too urgent can easily lead to mistakes," Sister Zhang agreed.

Upstairs, when it was just the husband and wife, Pei Jing said, "That girl is a bit young, but Sister Zhang has been in the family for so many years, she is very reliable."

To Pei Jing, Sister Zhang was someone who had looked after Pei's family since he was a child. After decades of companionship and care, their relationship was no longer simply employer and nanny.

"Of course I know this. Sister Zhang's character is absolutely trustworthy. I don't distrust her either, just that a girl of that age really isn't suitable for our family. Chen Ze and the others are fourteen or fifteen now too. Boys that age are especially curious about everything, like you said, maybe I'm overthinking things, but nipping any factors that shouldn't exist in the bud isn't bad either."

She didn't pay too much attention to family status. After all, when she was little she was even worse off than the girl Sister Zhang mentioned.

She didn't plan to interfere in the children's future relationships either. As long as they were happy with their own choices, she would agree.

But it was too early to talk about this now.

"Anyway, you make the decisions about family matters, I won't interfere," Pei Jing said.

He wasn't unaware, just that having it suddenly brought up like this, he still felt quite emotional, feeling like time passed so quickly.

Even Chen Ze and the others were fourteen or fifteen now.

Just like Sister Zhang said, there was no reason to turn down a job that just fell into your lap.

Sister Zhang had originally wanted to bring the girl over to thank her, but Zhi Xia declined, directly calling to have arrangements made downstairs.

Sister Zhang knew she was busy, being able to arrange a job was already not easy, so she definitely could not be upset over this.

On the contrary, having comparisons and differences would make her work even more diligently.

While the children were still asleep, Zhi Xia pulled Pei Jing into the home theater, "Let me show you some real technology, don't be scared."

They had also watched TV in space, but because of the environment limitations, other than having slightly better image quality, there wasn't much difference from normal TV watching.

But this time the home theater Zhi Xia installed used technology from another world, an extremely high level. Putting on the glasses and turning on the power gave you a truly immersive experience, making you feel like you were right there in it.

Zhi Xia chose an interstellar battle film, because she couldn't get online in this world, all her resources were stored in something like a memory card.

When Zhi Xia first spoke about it, Pei Jing didn't think much of it, but aside from the deep immersion, the shock from the technology left him dazed for a long time.

"Are all these things real experiences from other worlds?" Pei Jing asked her.

"I wouldn't know about that, it's also possible it's just something made up by other people, like our TV shows," Zhi Xia said. "Pretty cool right?"

"It's quite good, it'd be great if our country had this kind of tech too." Only if the country was strong could they avoid being bullied, and the people live without worry.

"It will slowly develop, it will happen," she couldn't confirm other things, but before her soul returned at least, the country's development was already very powerful, one of the top few powerful nations. "Also, if I'm not wrong, Chenye is probably researching this kind of thing. He asked me for some related materials, all about these fields, but I don't know about his specific work, it's confidential after he told me."

"You don't think Chenye joined some confidential research project?" Zhi Xia looked at Pei Jing, suspecting he might know, also Chenye said last time he was going to a research institute and wouldn't contact home for a long time. Up til now it had already been half a year, he really hadn't called at all.

But Pei Jing's expression didn't change, only saying, "He's grown up and has his own thoughts. As parents we just need to confirm our child's safety isn't an issue. We shouldn't interfere too much in other things, let him develop on his own, and give him appropriate support."

Hearing him say this, she became even more certain of her guess.

Smiling, she didn't ask further.

What he said was right, the child's work was special, some things couldn't be spoken aloud. You really shouldn't pry too much.

After New Year's, Su Ying also moved over.

This time at the housewarming banquet, Liu Ling had no way to avoid it. She had lost a lot of weight, and didn't look well mentally either, but her attitude was much better than before, even a bit fawning.

Zhi Xia found it a bit baffling.

Su Ying said she probably still had the house on her mind, and didn't want to spend more money than them, but was too embarrassed to say it outright.

Zhi Xia didn't feel like she was trying to take advantage of them.

After all, she had been wealthy for many years already, and Liu Ling had never tried to curry favor before.
