Quick Transmigration Hoarding: My Selfishness Leads to a Killing Frenzy

Chapter 278 The Vanity and Materialism of Little 36

Jiang Tianming went to open the door and saw that it was his ex-wife Zhao Man. His displeasure was obvious.

"How did you come?"

"I came to see Yaoyao." Zhao Man smiled awkwardly.

"come in."

Looking at her familiar home, yet her ex-husband seemed rather unwelcoming, Zhao Man felt a mix of emotions, but she forced a smile and suppressed her bitterness.

When he saw the people eating at the table, especially Qingmo, his expression became awkward for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

"Yaoyao, Mommy's here."

If you were to scold Jiang Yao, he would become obedient after being beaten a few times.

Upon seeing Jiang Man, he didn't call out to her immediately, but instead subconsciously looked at Qingmo's expression.

Qingmo seemed oblivious to the awkward atmosphere and calmly continued eating her breakfast.

Seeing that she was not acting strangely, Jiang Yao then rushed into Zhao Man's arms.

"Mommy, Mommy, where did you go? Please come back, Yaoyao misses you."

Holding Jiang Yao, Zhao Man was momentarily taken aback, knowing that Jiang Yao hadn't been close to her before and even disliked her somewhat.

He said that other people's mothers are all beautiful, and that other people's mothers take their children out to play.

As for her, all she does is stay home, do laundry and cook, and nag all day long. She can't even bear to buy him a slightly more expensive toy.

What happened? Her son has changed so much in such a short time?

Zhao Man then took a closer look at the child and saw the injury on his face, which made her feel sorry for him.

"Yaoyao, what happened? Who hit you?" Although she was asking the child, her gaze was fixed on Jiang Tianming.

I didn't think much of it when I walked in, but now that I see Jiang Tianming also has injuries on his face, this...

Jiang Tianming looked away guiltily, but Jiang Yao spoke first: "It was Aunt Yunqing who hit him. She also hit Dad and Grandma. Waaah, Mom, it hurts so much."

Zhao Man stared wide-eyed at Qingmo in disbelief, then turned her anger towards Jiang Tianming.

"Jiang Tianming, is this how you treat your own child? You just stood by and watched him being abused by his stepmother?"

Qingmo swallowed the food in her mouth and slowly said, "Sister, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. How can you call it abuse? The child was disobedient, and I just gave him a gentle reprimand."

Zhao Man ignored Qingmo, feeling there was nothing to argue about with a mistress; she only wanted an explanation from Jiang Tianming.

“Jiang Tianming, are you even a man? You let the child be bullied. If you can’t take good care of Yaoyao, then give Yaoyao to me.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tianming scoffed, "Zhao Man, the child is mine, it's none of your business. You want Yaoyao? Can you even afford to raise him?"

As he spoke, he looked her up and down with disdain.

She was dressed simply, with a sallow complexion and an out-of-shape figure, making her look exactly like a middle-aged woman.

She looked even older than when she was with him, and it was clear that she wasn't doing well.

“No matter what, I can still raise my son. At least I won’t let anyone mistreat him.” Zhao Man said stubbornly.

Jiang Tianming scoffed at her appearance and impatiently shooed her away. "Alright, you've seen the child. Now leave. Don't stay here and get in my way."

With custody in Jiang Tianming's hands, Zhao Man is currently penniless and unemployed, living in a small rented room. She knows she can't take the child with her, but she's still somewhat unwilling to give up.

She simply stroked the child's head again and again without saying a word.

"Daddy, don't send Mommy away, don't send Mommy away."

Without comparison, there is no harm.

Although Jiang Yao was just a child and he disliked Zhao Man, he would rather have this plain and unattractive mother than his current new mother.

Jiang Tianming frowned but did not answer.

At this moment, Qingmo clutched her stomach and said weakly, "Oh dear, my sister comes here and immediately starts questioning me. My stomach suddenly feels a little uncomfortable."

Jiang Tianming hurriedly approached anxiously: "Yunqing, how are you?"

Qingmo nestled in his arms, looking pitifully at Zhao Man: "Sister, you don't need to be hostile towards me. I know you can't bear to part with your child. I'm pregnant now, so why don't you come back and be my nanny?"

Upon hearing this, not only Zhao Man was surprised, but even Jiang Tianming and Jiang Cuilan looked at her with puzzled expressions.

I wonder what she's up to? Is she really that kind?

If she were kind-hearted, how could she possibly break up someone else's family?

Jiang Tianming: "Yunqing, don't talk nonsense. If you want to find a nanny, we can just go to the labor market and find one. Why do you need her? If she comes, will this house ever be peaceful?"

"Slap!" Qingmo slapped him across the face.

Not only did he be stunned, but Zhao Man was also dumbfounded.

"Why are you so crazy?"

It was clear that Jiang Tianming said this through gritted teeth.

Qingmo: "Honey~ Why are you saying such awful things? Zhao Man is still your ex-wife. You were shameless when you divorced her, not giving her a single penny. What's wrong with me giving her a job now?"

Jiang Tianming covered his face, speechless for a moment.

Zhao Man was also shocked; she hadn't expected this mistress to speak up for her.

Qingmo continued, "Moreover, Yaoyao obviously misses her biological mother very much. Her older sister will definitely take better care of Yaoyao than any outsider."

Just as Jiang Tianming was about to retort, his mother secretly pinched him, signaling him to be quiet.

Jiang Cuilan wholeheartedly supported Qingmo hiring Zhao Man as a nanny. Zhao Man was so obedient, and having her around would not only solve the housework, but also provide a solution for the household chores.

Perhaps she can also help share some of the burden of the new daughter-in-law?

Jiang Yao's eyes lit up: "Really? Mom can stay?"

Qingmo nodded with a smile.

Zhao Man hesitated. On the one hand, she really needed the money and was worried about Yao Yao. On the other hand, she felt very embarrassed.

She was sharing a room with the mistress, and she was also a nanny. So what was she?

In the end, after Yao Yao called out "Mom" again and again, she gave in.

She slowly opened her mouth and said, "I can stay and work as a nanny, and you have to pay me the market price. But I'm doing this for Yaoyao's sake. Otherwise, who would want to see your faces?"

Qingmo replied, "Of course, don't worry, sister, my husband won't be stingy with his salary, right?"

He snorted coldly and did not reply.

He wasn't actually as opposed to Zhao Man staying on the surface.

To be fair, apart from being a wife who didn't meet his requirements, Zhao Man far surpassed Yun Qing in every other aspect.

With a dutiful ex-wife and a beautiful current wife, why wouldn't he be happy?

He had no objection as long as the two didn't fight and could live in peace.

And so, Zhao Man stayed on as a nanny.
