After dinner, Zheng Duoduo and his son planned to stay in Xinyuan for the night.
It wasn't that Zheng Duoduo insisted on staying, but that his son refused to leave the pile of toys and the nursery. He refused to leave, even if he was drowsy.
Zheng Duoduo had no choice but to ask Xue Ling for help, bathe the little guy and change into pajamas and diapers. Seeing that the little guy was energetic again, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"It seems that we really can only stay overnight.
It’s just a matter of eating and drinking, you have to live there too!”
"Brother Dudo, your pajamas."
Cheng Huanchong came over with a set of pajamas and explained: "My size, brand new."
Zheng Duoduo hurriedly thanked you: "You are a little taller than me, I am a little fatter than you, and I can wear just enough for you."
Cheng Huanchong glanced at his slightly protruding belly, laughing and laughing: "How old are you?
Look at your little belly, you can hardly hide it!"
"Shut up!"
Zheng Duoduo laughed and scolded: "A man has forty-one flowers! I am as old as a flower now, mature, stable and very masculine, which is not what you little brats can understand!"
Cheng Huanchong sniffed and made an exaggerated gesture of "vomiting".
"Manliness?
All I smell is the strong stench of sweat!"
Zheng Duoduo tried to strangle him but Cheng Huanchong ran away quickly.
Xue Ling helped the little guy put on his pajamas and took him to play with Xiaoyu and the others.
"Okay, you should go take a shower quickly.
After a while, if you are tired from playing and drink some milk, you should be able to sleep until dawn.
I’ve been playing for more than two hours and still feel so energetic! It’s really rare!”
Zheng Duoduo was still staring at her belly and asked anxiously: "Sister Lingling, I just haven't gone to the gym recently, could it be possible that I have gained weight?
The flesh on my waist seems... a little loose!"
Xue Ling looked at him funny and said: "You still thought you were a young man and digested whatever you ate?
After the age of thirty-five, as long as you are not careful, your body will immediately go out of shape.
As long as you carelessly eat, eat more, and sleep more, you will soon show signs of gaining weight in middle age.
Aren’t the people in the company who are about the same age as you all middle-aged and putting on weight?
Didn't you notice?"
"Um..." Zheng Duoduo later thought: "It seems like OMG! Oh my god! It's scary! No, I have to resume my 800-meter long-distance running from tomorrow."
Xue Ling took the little guy to the nursery and asked him to play with Xiaoyu and Xiaopeng.
Xiaopeng Xiaoyu talked around him and greeted his new friends warmly.
Xue Ling saw that they were having a great time communicating in "baby talk", so she didn't need to worry about anything, so she sat aside and watched them play quietly.
After a while, Zheng Duoduo came and sat next to her.
"Sister, the nanny just sent a message saying that she still has a fever and must take a few days off.
I...I want to ask you to help me find another nanny, a professional one.
The child is still young, so it would be better for him to have one more person at home to look after him. This will reduce my mother's burden, and secondly, we and the nanny can supervise each other."
Xue Ling raised her eyebrows slightly and explained: "I am anxious to find someone to disapprove of, especially the nanny.
Well, I'll ask Xiaoyu's nanny before and ask her if she has any vacancies.
She is a local and not very old, probably in her thirties now.
She is not married yet and can work day and night."
"No."
Zheng Duoduo smiled bitterly: "Xiao Tong said... I must find someone who is a little older, and must get married and have a family."
Xue Linghu asked: "Why?
She has taken care of many children and has rich experience.”
"avoid arousing suspicion."
Zheng Duoduo smiled bitterly: "She said that if we hire a full-time nanny or nanny, she must be around fifty years old and have a happy family.
She said... she was afraid that some young women would act randomly and affect the stability of our family."
Xue Ling: "..."?
?
She smiled softly and said: "Okay, I understand, I will help you find one.
However, it’s impossible to go fast in terms of time, and you must be mentally prepared.”
"Thank you, Sister Ling."
Zheng Duoduo sighed helplessly: "Before my mother comes home, before Xiao Tong comes back from a business trip, and before the nanny recovers and can go to work, our father and son can only ask you to take care of us."
Xue Ling didn't care at all and explained: "We have a lot of people here, and there are many rooms. We have all the children's supplies, so you won't have any problems.
For a short period of time, it's absolutely fine.
Sister Achun will probably be back next week, so you can go back then."
Zheng Duoduo couldn't help but feel sad when he mentioned his old mother.
"Tietou said that this small tumor on my mother's neck should not be underestimated. Fortunately, it was discovered in advance and was removed quickly while it was safe.
Thanks to my sister and brother-in-law who take her for a physical every year, otherwise we would have been so busy all day long, how could we have discovered such a problem! My mother said she only felt an extra soft pimple, and it wasn’t uncomfortable.
Keep it in mind.
She takes care of our family all day long and never thinks about herself... It's also my fault that she didn't take good care of her elderly family."
Xue Ling comforted in a low voice: "You are all too busy, I don't blame you."
"well!"
Zheng Duoduo couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Sister, with the birth of my son, I - I began to feel a slight sense of fatigue that I couldn't do my best.
It's not obvious, but I am sure that my body is not as good as before.
I used to be able to work more than ten or twenty hours a day, but now as long as I stay up late for two or three days in a row, all kinds of headaches and discomforts will come one after another."
"Ten years later," Xue Ling reminded: "You will find that it will be even worse than now, and it is very obvious.
People, unless they are the kind of people who are particularly good at maintaining health or paying attention to exercise, most middle-aged people's physical conditions will gradually deteriorate and become more and more obvious."
Zheng Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief: "So, I can only work for ten more years at most... No wonder you keep urging me to train some right and left hands."
Xue Ling smiled lovingly and said warmly: "Duoduo, if you are the only CEO of such a large group that stands out and others cannot compare, that would not be a good thing.
Being able to cultivate excellent successors is also one of the abilities of a good leader."
"I listened to you and have already arranged a few young people in their thirties to be around."
Zheng Duoduo explained: "I took them to practice together and started to give them opportunities."
Xue Ling nodded in approval: "You have never let me down.
Sister, I believe in your vision."
Zheng Duoduo smiled: "When I can no longer keep up with this era, I will step down and let the younger generation take my place."
"Um."
Xue Ling reminded: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, and quit when you can't hold it anymore.
I hope you can keep an eye on them for two or three more years to make sure they have the overall situation under control before you can retreat with confidence."
Zheng Duoduo chuckled: "I know, just like you did before."
"It's different."
Xue Ling chuckled: "The group has expanded a lot in your hands over the years, the products have become more diversified, and the reputation and popularity have risen to a higher level than at that time.
You will have to worry more than me in the future, because my successor is better than me, but your successor may not be."
