My name is Wang Lin and I am an ordinary housewife. My husband Liu Qiang and I have been married for 15 years and have a son and a daughter. My family lives in a small town on the outskirts of Beijing, and our life is plain and comfortable. I am usually in charge of household chores, taking care of children and the elderly, and although it is a bit hard at times, I am generally happy.
The story begins at dinner time one day. That day, I was busy preparing dinner in the kitchen, my husband Liu Qiang was watching TV in the living room, and the children were doing their homework in the room. It's a daily scene in our house, and everything seems so harmonious and calm.
"Wang Lin, quickly bring the rice, the braised pork I cooked today is amazing!" Liu Qiang shouted loudly in the living room.
"Okay, Liu Qiang, it'll be right away!" I walked quickly to the kitchen cabinet, took out a large bowl of hot rice, and carefully brought it to the dining table. It's a custom in our family to have rice and a few home-cooked dishes for dinner every day for the family to sit around for dinner.
"Mom, this braised pork is so delicious!" his son Xiaoqiang picked up a piece of meat and put it in his bowl and praised it happily.
"Yes, my mother's cooking is the best!" my daughter Xiaomei also picked up the chopsticks and took a bite and said to me with a smile.
Hearing the children's praise, my heart warmed and I felt that my efforts were worth it. But just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Mom, there's a knock on the door!" said Mei, running to the door.
I put down the dishes and chopsticks in my hand, wiped my hands, walked to the door and opened the door, only to see a strange middle-aged man standing outside the door, with a smile on his face.
"Hello, is Aunt Wang here? I'm your new nanny, and I'm here to report. The man said to me politely.
I was a little surprised because our family had no plans to hire a new babysitter, but seeing the other person's sincere face, I politely invited him into the house. After the man came in, I led him to the living room, and Liu Qiang and the children also showed puzzled expressions.
"I'm Xiao Li from the countryside, and I heard that Aunt Wang's family needs a nanny, so I came here to apply. The man introduced himself.
"Oh, that's right. I glanced at Liu Qiang with some hesitation, and then said, "You sit down for a while, and I'll pour you a glass of water." ”
I went to the kitchen to pour him a glass of water, but I kept thinking about this sudden nanny candidate. It stands to reason that our family has no plans to hire a nanny, and even if we do, it should be a woman, right?
"Liu Qiang, do you think this male nanny is reliable?" I asked in a low voice as I walked back to the living room.
"I also think it's a little strange that the nannies aren't all women, and the man doesn't look like he's here to do housework. Liu Qiang said with a frown.
Liu Qiang and I exchanged glances, and we both had some doubts about this man. But after all, he had already come, and we were embarrassed to refuse in person, so we decided to let him stay for a while and see how he did.
"Xiao Li, since you're here, let's stay and try it out for a while. I tried to keep it as calm as I could, "You go to the kitchen and help me wash the vegetables first, and you'll cook our dinner tonight." ”
"Okay, Aunt Wang, I'll do my best to do it well!" Xiao Li nodded happily, and then walked quickly to the kitchen and began to wash the vegetables.
Liu Qiang and I exchanged glances, both with a little worry and hesitation. The sudden appearance of this male nanny made us feel an inexplicable unease. However, for the sake of harmony in the family, we decided to try it out for a while.
While Xiao Li was washing vegetables in the kitchen, Liu Qiang and I were exchanging views in the living room.
"Liu Qiang, do you think Xiao Li is reliable? I always feel that he came a little suddenly, and he is a man, and it doesn't feel right. I said to Liu Qiang.
Liu Qiang frowned, "It's really a little strange, I also think it's more appropriate for a nanny to be a woman." However, since he's already here, let's try it out for a while. If the performance is not good, we will consider other options. ”
I nodded in agreement. Although we are still a little worried, for the sake of family harmony, we can only settle for a while.
After a while, Xiao Li came out with the washed dishes and began to prepare dinner. Although I was a little worried about his cooking skills, I saw that he was proficient in his movements and seemed to have a good way of cooking, so I was a little relieved.
"Aunt Wang, dinner is almost ready, you can sit down for a while. Xiao Li said to me kindly.
Liu Qiang and I sat down in the living room, waiting for dinner to be finished. At this time, the children also put down their homework and gathered around to watch TV.
"Mom and Dad, what's dinner today?" asked Xiaomei curiously.
"Well, today is the braised pork made by Xiao Li, as well as stir-fried vegetables and tofu soup. I replied with a smile.
"Wow, that sounds delicious!" Xiaoqiang said excitedly.
After a while, Xiao Li brought the dishes to the table one after another, and the aroma was fragrant. Our family sat around the table and started to enjoy dinner.
"Xiao Li, this braised pork is really good!" Liu Qiang praised, "It's even better than what I made!"
"Yes, Xiao Li's cooking skills are really good. I smiled at him.
When Xiao Li heard the compliment, he said with a smile on his face: "Aunt Wang, Uncle Liu, you are too polite, I just made the dishes I am good at." ”
Dinner went on happily and our family ate with relish. Watching Xiao Li cook dinner for us seriously, the doubts in my heart gradually dissipated.
After dinner, Liu Qiang and I cleaned up the table together, while Xiao Li went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Liu Qiang and I sat down to drink tea in the living room and talked about our recent work and our children's studies.
"Wang Lin, what do you think of Xiao Li?" Liu Qiang suddenly asked.
"Well, I think he's okay, although it's a bit of a surprise, but he's very careful and his cooking skills are good. I replied thoughtfully.
"yes, the dinner he made today was really delicious. Liu Qiang nodded, "However, I still feel a little uneasy, after all, such a stranger suddenly comes to the house, which always makes people feel a little uneasy." ”
"yes, I'm a little worried, too. I sighed lightly, "But we don't have any other way but to try it out for a while." ”
We were silent for a while, both hesitant and uneasy. After all, the safety of the home is our primary concern, and the sudden appearance of a stranger always makes people feel a little worried.
At this moment, Xiao Li walked out of the kitchen with a smile on his face. "Aunt Wang, Uncle Liu, I have washed the dishes, you can rest assured. He said.
"Okay, thank you, Xiao Li. Liu Qiang and I smiled at him, and then prepared to go back to the room to rest. Although there is still some uneasiness in our hearts, for the sake of family harmony, we can only settle for a while.
At night, Liu Qiang and I lay in bed, but I couldn't fall asleep. The figure of Xiao Li, a strange nanny, has been echoing in my mind, and I always feel a little uneasy in my heart.
"Liu Qiang, do you think Xiao Li is reliable?" I asked softly.
Liu Qiang pondered for a moment, and then said: "I think he is very careful in his work, and his cooking skills are also good. However, we still have to be careful, after all, the safety of the home is the most important. ”
I nodded in agreement. Although Xiao Li's performance made us feel some relief, after all, he is a stranger, and we still have to be vigilant.
While we were talking, we suddenly heard a scream, followed by a commotion. The two of us jumped up at once, both nervous.
"What's wrong?!" I asked anxiously.
We quickly walked to the living room and saw Xiaomei standing there, looking at Xiao Li with a frightened face, while Xiao Li stood aside with a grim face.
"Xiaomei, what's wrong with you?" I asked, walking over and holding Xiaomei.
"Mom, Xiao Li said something in the kitchen just now that scared me!" Xiaomei's voice trembled a little," he said...... He said he was an old slave and asked me to serve him well!"
Hearing this, Liu Qiang and I couldn't help but be shocked. Liu Qiang walked up to Xiao Li and asked sternly, "Xiao Li, what do you mean?!"
Xiao Li looked at us with an embarrassed face and explained hesitantly: "Uncle Liu, Aunt Wang, I'm ...... I was just kidding, I didn't expect Xiaomei to be so scared. ”
"What are you kidding?!Do you know how inappropriate this kind of talk is for a child?!" Liu Qiang said angrily.
"Yes, Xiao Li, it's so inappropriate for you to talk like this!" I also joined in the questioning.
Xiao Li apologized again and again, claiming that he was just joking, but we all felt that his explanation was a bit far-fetched. This incident made us more vigilant, I don't know who Xiao Li is and why he said such a thing.
"You get out of here!" Liu Qiang finally couldn't help but get angry, "We don't need such rude people in our house!"
Xiao Li was taken aback by Liu Qiang's words, and hurriedly lowered his head, "I'm sorry, Uncle Liu, Aunt Wang, I was wrong, I'll leave now." With that, he hurried out of our house.
Watching Xiao Li's back disappear outside the door, Liu Qiang and I breathed a sigh of relief. This strange man actually said such an inappropriate thing, which made us have deeper doubts and vigilance about him.
"Wang Lin, I think we have to call the police, this Xiao Li is too suspicious!" Liu Qiang said with a frown.
I took a deep breath and nodded, "Yes, we can't let him show up near our house anymore, call the police as soon as possible." ”
We decided to go to the police station early the next morning to report the case and deal with the matter. Although we experienced a sudden panic, at least we can now move on with our lives in peace.
Early the next morning, Liu Qiang and I went to the police station to report the case. We gave the police a detailed description of Li's appearance and behavior, and explained what he said inappropriately about Xiaomei. After listening to our account, the police said that they would launch an investigation as soon as possible, and told us to keep in touch and notify us as soon as there was any news.
After returning home, Liu Qiang and I were in a bit of a heavy mood. We didn't expect that a seemingly ordinary babysitter would cause so much trouble and uneasiness. For the safety of the family, we are more vigilant and have decided not to let strangers into the house easily in the future.
"Wang Lin, we don't want to hire strangers casually in the future. Liu Qiang said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Liu Qiang, I also think that the safety of our family is more important than anything else. I nodded sympathetically.
This incident hit us hard, but it also made us cherish the warmth and peace of our family even more. We decided to be more careful in the future, to protect ourselves and our children, and not to let anyone harm our family.
Time passed quickly, and a few days later, the police contacted us to say that Xiao Li had been found and brought him back to the police station for further investigation. Hearing the news, Liu Qiang and I breathed a sigh of relief, and we could finally put our minds at ease.
"Wang Lin, the police have found Xiao Li, who is he?" asked Liu Qiang curiously.
"I don't know, maybe I won't know until the results of the police investigation come out. I shrugged my shoulders and said.
However, after this incident, our thinking about hiring a nanny has also changed. We decided not to hire random strangers in the future, but to do it ourselves, or find some trusted people to help through reliable channels. The safety of our family always comes first, and we are not willing to risk letting strangers into our lives anymore.
In the following days, Liu Qiang and I tried our best to adjust our rhythm of life and minimize external interference to ensure the harmony and safety of our family. We pay more attention to communicating with the children so that they understand the importance of family and safety awareness.
Although we experienced a thrilling event, we also learned a lot from it, and the warmth and unity of family made us cherish it even more. Only the mutual love and support between family members can get us through any ups and downs.
As the days passed, we gradually recovered from that thrilling experience. Family harmony has once again permeated our lives, and the children have returned to their former liveliness and cheerfulness.
One day, I was busy preparing dinner in the kitchen, while Liu Qiang was playing games with the children in the living room. Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and I quickly dried my hands and went to open the door.
"Mom, who is it?" asked Xiaomei.
When I opened the door, I saw a kind middle-aged woman standing outside the door, smiling at me and saying, "Hello, are you Aunt Wang? ”
When I saw this woman, I couldn't help but be stunned. After the last incident, I had become wary of hiring strangers and didn't know if I should let her in.
"Mom, is it a nanny?" Xiaomei asked when she saw my hesitant expression.
I thought about it and thought that this woman seemed kind and should not be a problem. So he invited her into the house and asked her to sit down and drink a glass of water.
"Thank you, Aunt Wang. The woman smiled and took the cup and sat on the sofa, "My name is Zhang Lin, I used to work in a kindergarten, and now I want to find a job as a domestic nanny." ”
"Oh, that's right. Liu Qiang and I exchanged a look, and we both hesitated a little, "Do you have any relevant work experience?"
"Yes, I have been working in a kindergarten for ten years and am very experienced in taking care of children. Zhang Lin said with a smile, "I will also cook and clean to ensure that I can take care of your family." ”
Hearing her answer, Liu Qiang and I both felt a little relieved. Although we have experienced an unpleasant experience of hiring a nanny, we also understand that not all people will have problems, and we should still give each other a chance.
"Okay, Aunt Zhang, you can try it for a while. "I decided to try it out for a while and see how she performed.
Zhang Lin smiled with satisfaction when she heard this reply. "Thank you, Aunt Wang, I will definitely do my best!" she said excitedly.
Looking at Zhang Lin's enthusiastic appearance, Liu Qiang and I also felt a little relieved. Perhaps, this time we will be able to find a suitable nanny to make the family's life more convenient and comfortable.
In the days that followed, Zhang Lin gradually integrated into our family. She is conscientious and responsible, and she also cares about the children, which makes us feel very satisfied. Slowly, we also built trust in her and felt that we had a reliable helper in the family.
Time passed, and the family's life gradually returned to its usual peace and warmth. Although we have experienced a thrilling event, through hard work and perseverance, we have finally come out of the haze and let the family be full of sunshine and hope again.
