Chapter 2376: Might As Well Not Hire Anyone (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

To do her revision, Qiao Nan had started spending more time at home.

Seeing Zhai Sheng picking up a call from Ping Cheng, she had already guessed that something must have gone wrong with Ding Jiayi. Qiao Nan was at a loss too, knowing how Ding Jiayi was still unwilling to settle down even after getting sick. She had never seen such an unruly patient. Was Ding Jiayi intent on not getting well?

“What’s up?” Seeing Zhai Sheng’s expression, Qiao Nan asked him. “Why don’t you put it on speaker mode so that I can hear it too? Brother Zhai, you definitely don’t have a better understanding of the Qiao family as compared to me. I’m probably the best person when it comes to dealing with them.”

Of course, the only person Qiao Nan had to treat now was Ding Jiayi.

“Alright.” Zhai Sheng pressed the speaker button and Qiao Nan heard the veteran’s every word. “Chief, what shall we do next? Should we hire a second caregiver for Madam Ding? But given this situation, I’m afraid that the second caregiver won’t last long either. We’ll just be wasting our money.”

“Alright, let’s not hire anyone.” Qiao Nan spoke up before Zhai Sheng had the chance to do so.

The veteran hesitated for a moment. “Madam Zhai?”

“Yes.” Qiao Nan answered. “There’s no need to hire another caregiver.” Ding Jiayi would definitely chase every caregiver away. There was no point in hiring one. As her daughter, she had already done her duty. No one could stop Ding Jiayi from throwing her tantrums. Even she wasn’t willing to put up with Ding Jiayi’s antics. As such, Qiao Nan could completely understand why the caregiver had chosen to leave. “Even though she’s only done a day’s work, she’s already had a hard time. I think you’d better pay her well. We can’t let her work for free.”

“Alright.” The veteran answered. “But as for Madam Ding… She’s still a little weak. Are you sure we don’t have to hire anyone else?”

It was because of this that the veteran had been speechless about Ding Jiayi. Someone who was so weak and needed a caregiver had insisted on kicking up such a huge fuss that she had scared the caregiver away. How much of a fuss was Ding Jiayi planning to create?

Had Ding Jiayi never stopped to think about what would happen to her once she drove the caregiver away? Well, Ding Jiayi probably felt that the chief’s wife would definitely find another caregiver for her since she was willing to care about her mom.

But the caregiver had been stunned when Qiao Nan said that there was no need to hire another caregiver. “Madam Ding can’t take care of herself at the moment since she’s still bedridden.” In other words, Ding Jiayi might very well starve to death if no one took care of her.

“Don’t worry. Someone will take care of Ding Jiayi. You don’t have to worry about that. Thank you for your help this time. You don’t have to do anything for the time being.” Qiao Nan already had plans for Ding Jiayi.

“You’re being too kind, Madam Zhai. I was cultivated by the chief and it’s all thanks to him that I have what I have today. You can call me anytime you need any help.” A troublemaker like Ding Jiayi would never stop causing trouble. Since the chief’s wife had to stay by the chief’s side in the capital, he would look out for the chief over in Ping Cheng.

After hanging up the call, Qiao Nan took a sip of water to calm down. Qiao Nan was rather reluctant to mention Ding Jiayi. Her husband had run away, while her daughter was not close to her. By now, Ding Jiayi should probably have gotten a clear understanding of the true nature of the one whom she had doted on all along.

It wasn’t unreasonable to say that Ding Jiayi was all alone now. And Ding Jiayi’s refusal to reflect on why things had turned out this way as well as her selfishness sparked Qiao Nan’s curiosity about Old Ding’s family. What kind of family had raised a daughter like Ding Jiayi? Old Ding’s family had ruined the entire Qiao family.

Qiao Nan was grateful that her paternal grandparents had passed on early. Relationships between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law had always been a perennial problem. If her grandma had still been alive, she might have been driven to her grave by a daughter-in-law like Ding Jiayi.

In the past, Qiao Dongliang had mentioned that her paternal grandparents had been very good-natured. Qiao Nan believed it too, seeing Qiao Dongliang as an example. Given her grandparents’ nature, they would definitely get into arguments with Ding Jiayi every day. Ding Jiayi liked to have the final say and refused to share power with anyone else. She didn’t even listen to her own mother, let alone her parents-in-law.

“What do you intend on doing?”

“You’ll know once I make a call.”

After dealing with Ding Jiayi for so many years, Qiao Nan had the confidence in defeating her.

The caregiver had ‘resigned’ and ‘fired’ her employer, leaving Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin utterly confused.

Qiao Zijin laughed. “Wow. Where did they find such a caregiver? She’s got such a fiery temper. Are you sure she’s a hired caregiver and not our ancestor? She’s so fierce! It seems like Qiao Nan didn’t put any effort into looking for a caregiver for you. Don’t tell me that she purposely found a bad-tempered one to take care of you!”

Qiao Zijin’s words were especially vicious. It’s as though she was trying to sow discord between Qiao Nan and Ding Jiayi. Even though their relationship was already bad to begin with, Qiao Zijin saw no harm in making Ding Jiayi hate Qiao Nan even more.

After all, Qiao Nan was rich and had married a good husband.

She had to get her mom to hate Qiao Nan so that her mom would use Qiao Nan’s money on her so that she would be able to live a comfortable life with Qiao Nan’s money. Although she despised Qiao Nan, attitudes could change.

Just as expected, Ding Jiayi immediately fell for Qiao Zijin’s words. She had no idea that she had fallen for Qiao Zijin’s ploy. “That must be the case. That wretched girl can’t stand to see me living well.. If I die, I’ll never cause any more trouble for her. That’s why she found such a useless caregiver to torture me so that I’ll die as soon as possible! Tsk! What a useless thing! She’s even learned to act well!”
