Chapter 1354: Chapter 502: I Am the Evil Nanny (Part 4)_2

At five fifteen, He Tiantian finally arrived downstairs at the client’s home.

She pressed the doorbell, and soon a middle-aged female voice came through the intercom: "It’s Aunt He, right? Come on up!"

He Tiantian deliberately put on a nervous look and timidly responded, "Ah!" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Click!

The door lock made a sound, and the tightly closed door gap opened slightly.

He Tiantian quickly pulled open the door and entered the hallway, arriving at the third floor.

Teacher Wang was a middle-aged person in their forties, roughly around the same age as the original owner He Xiutian.

However, she appeared very young, exuding a scholarly aura.

Her speech was measured, and her demeanor was calm and gentle, clearly well-educated.

Teacher Wang worked at A University, and this time she was looking for a nanny for her elderly mother.

Her mother was also a retired employee from A University and was seventy years old this year.

The old lady was in relatively good health but had some age-related illnesses like hypertension.

Since her spouse passed away a few years ago, Teacher Wang and her siblings had hired a nanny for their mother.

Although the old lady wasn’t harsh, she was quite cleanliness-conscious.

The previous few nannies she hired always had various issues that left the old lady not completely satisfied.

Teacher Wang knew her real mother well and specified to the housekeeping company that she didn’t want any certifications, just wanting someone who was reliable and hardworking.

Upon seeing "He Xiutian" for the first time, Teacher Wang was quite pleased.

Not too old, her hair and clothes were neatly kept, her nails were cut short, and there was no dirt under them.

Her fingers were large and calloused, clearly someone who loved to work and was capable.

Although her gaze was somewhat evasive and timid, like a rural woman unfamiliar with worldly experience.

However, her eyes were bright, suggesting she was a straightforward and honest person.

Teacher Wang had a good first impression of He Tiantian, and then sat down for a casual chat.

During the conversation, Teacher Wang continued to observe He Tiantian’s mannerisms and judge her reliability based on her words—

She was from a rural background, and her husband had passed away more than ten years ago.

As a woman, she didn’t remarry but lived with her daughter, even putting her daughter through college!

Remarkable!

She was sentimental, insightful, and someone reliable.

First impression, second conversation, He Tiantian passed both.

The third step was the "practical test."

Teacher Wang asked He Tiantian to fry some shredded potatoes, the most common dish yet also quite testing.

Not only judging cooking skills but also through washing vegetables, shredding, and other processes to assess her attention to detail and patience.

The original owner He Xiutian’s cooking skills weren’t particularly good, just standard home-cooked level.

The recent training at the housekeeping company just helped her better understand protein and vegetable nutrition pairing.

Her knife skills improved a bit, and she learned to plate dishes; other than that, she remained at the same basic level.

Teacher Wang observed carefully and, once He Tiantian finished frying a plate of shredded potatoes, she took a bite:

Hmm, not particularly tasty, nor unpleasant, just ordinary.

Alas... Indeed, no one is perfect.

This person seems reliable, cleanliness-conscious, and capable, yet the cooking skills are lacking.

Teacher Wang felt somewhat hesitant, since she wasn’t focused on certifications, leaving a wide range of options.

Teacher Wang didn’t want to keep interviewing nannies; she wanted to directly find someone reliable and suitable.

She intended to interview a few more people and then choose the most suitable among them.

Hence, she placed a question mark next to "He Xiutian," marking her as pending.

"Alright, Aunt He, I’ll discuss with my family and get back to you within three days!"

"Thanks for your trip today; here’s the reimbursement for your travel expenses, please don’t refuse!"

Teacher Wang was very considerate; she didn’t immediately decide on a candidate and felt a bit awkward having made someone work.

As she walked He Tiantian to the door, she discreetly stuffed twenty yuan into her hand and said politely.

He Tiantian quickly waved her hand in refusal, but Teacher Wang insisted.

Unable to decline, He Tiantian pretended to be embarrassed, accepted it, and left the building.

A University’s staff residence wasn’t small; there were more than a dozen buildings.

However, the buildings were all constructed in the 1990s and seemed somewhat dated.

Six-story buildings, no elevators, with generous spacing between buildings and excellent landscaping.

Adjacent to the staff residence was A University’s campus, where you could faintly hear the chatter of students after class or the sound of bicycle bells from the yard.
