Auntie Liu felt that her reply was too insincere. “How can you not know when your husband is coming home? Men should be monitored closely, especially a rich man like Pei Ziheng. If you don’t watch him, what happens if he runs away with someone else? Xiao Ling, I’m not trying to criticize you, but you should be more careful.”

She was not really worried about Xia Ling but hoped that Xia Ling would secure her grip over this big tree called the Pei Family and let her family enjoy more benefits. What happened if this stupid girl didn’t know how to keep her man and was ditched by him?

Xia Ling did not care. If he really ran away with someone else, she would thank the heavens.

She ignored Auntie Liu and continued to eat with Grandma Ye.

Auntie Liu still continued to lecture her.

Xia Ling felt a little annoyed. Coincidentally, the baby started crying again.

Since Pei Ziheng was not at home, the nannies did not have to face many taboos, so they directly carried the baby to the dining area from the baby room. “Madam, Young Master is probably missing you again.”

Xia Ling sighed. This child did not have any sense of security since he was born. Once he could not see his mother after a period of time, he would start crying loudly. Sometimes, Xia Ling felt as if he knew that he was not Pei Ziheng’s biological child which was why he was so fearful and insecure.

She put down her utensils and reached out to hold her child.

Unexpectedly, Auntie Liu, who was sitting at the furthest end of the table and was the closest to the nanny, snatched the child from the nanny’s hands. “I also know how to console children.” Auntie Liu said attentively. “Let me do it.” She did not really like this child, but after seeing the luxurious villa and eating such delicious and expensive dishes, she could not bear to leave. She was only focusing on staying here to “help” Xia Ling with her child. In that case, she had to show off some of her abilities.

She carried the baby and shook it a few times. She said, “Baby, don’t cry. Don’t cry... your tears are all flowing out. Come, grandma will help you wipe them.” As she said, she used her sleeve to wipe the tears off the baby’s delicate cheeks.

The child’s skin was tender and was probably hurt by the rough cloth, so he cried even louder.

Xia Ling was distressed and quickly grabbed the child from her arms. “The child will not be consoled like that.” She harshly scolded Auntie Liu after seeing that there was a faint red mark on her son’s cheek. She quickly took a small towel from the nanny’s hand and gently wiped the tears off the baby.

Only then did the baby’s cries gradually stopped.

“Are you going to give my child to anyone who wants to hold him?!” Xia Ling lifted her head and harshly reprimanded the nanny. “Do you know the rules?! If this happens again, I’ll fire you immediately!”

The nanny was scared as she rarely saw madam this fierce, so she quickly acknowledged her mistake.

In fact, these professionally trained nannies for rich households would not have casually let outsiders carry their household’s babies if Auntie Liu were not Xia Ling’s relative. Who would object if young master’s grandma wanted to carry him? However, Auntie Liu was really too ignorant. How could she use her sleeve to wipe the tears off young master? What if there were germs? It was not unreasonable for madam to be so worried.

After hearing her oblique accusation, she was boiling with anger. However, as she wanted to stay here, she could not explode in anger. It was amusing to see her resistance.

Grandma also put down her utensils. “Xiao Ling, let grandma carry him. You haven’t finished eating. Quickly finish your food. It’s not good for you to go hungry for long periods of time.” Just now, Xia Ling was focused on taking care of Grandma Ye, and Grandma Ye was clear that she did not care much about eating herself.

After hearing what Grandma Ye said, Xia Ling hesitated. “But this child only recognizes me.” This small child was difficult to look after and only recognized his mother’s breathing and heartbeat. Sometimes, he would be impolite if someone else carried him.

Grandma Ye said, “Let me try.”

The elderly had a lot of experience with children. She carefully took the child from Xia Ling’s arms and kindly consoled it. The baby whimpered at first, but soon, it was captivated by this strange old woman. He blinked as he looked at Grandma Ye. Soon, he calmed down and stopped crying.

The adults surrounding her felt that it was like magic.

“You have fate with this child.” Nanny Zhou smiled and said, “He likes you.”

The nannies beside her were also happy. “That’s right. Young Master has been torturing madam during this time. Now with your help, you can save madam a lot of trouble.”

Xia Ling was also surprised and said that grandma helped her a lot.

That made Grandma Ye very happy.

The family had a good lunch, and the nanny carried the baby away for his nap. Xia Ling supported Grandma Ye as she went to the garden to eat some snacks and sunbathe. Auntie Liu also dragged Father Ye as she shamelessly wanted to tag along. She was determined to stay in Pei Ziheng’s house and wanted to ask Pei Ziheng directly for permission to stay.

Xia Ling vaguely guessed what they were thinking but could not be bothered with them.

It would be a miracle if Pei Ziheng agreed to their request.

However, an unforeseen event happened before Pei Ziheng returned home.

The nanny came to Xia Ling in a hurry. “Madam, things are not good. The young master suddenly has a big rash on his face. He went to scratch it, and now both of his hands are covered in rashes!”

Any small illness could be fatal for the baby.

Xia Ling became nervous and quickly followed the nanny to see it. Sure enough, the baby’s originally hydrated and smooth skin was replaced with a rash. The rash spread at a shocking speed, and his entire body was covered in rashes.

The little baby burst into tears and screamed, causing Xia Ling’s heart to ache.

“What happened?!” She asked angrily. However, she knew that this was not the time to find out who was responsible and quickly carried the baby in her arms. She hurriedly walked out and said, “Call the chauffeur to prepare the car. We’re going to the hospital!”

Grandma Ye also followed her and got into the car. “I’m older and have more experience than you. Maybe I can be useful in some way.” She said.

Xia Ling was very grateful and thanked Grandma Ye.

Auntie Liu also shamelessly squeezed in. “More people means more helping hands!”

In the chaos, Xia Ling did not care about chasing her away. The other helpers also did not dare to do anything about Xia Ling’s relatives, so they watched as she followed.

Auntie Liu sat on the backseat of the Rolls Royce. She touched the leather seats with her hands and became excited. She had never been in such a luxurious car. When she went back home, she had to boast to the neighbors!

If a sick child weren’t crying beside her, it would be even better.

That damned child was so noisy.

Auntie Liu cursed the child in her heart.

Xia Ling was anxious as she carried her baby. In the past, no matter how badly her baby cried, he would be OK after she consoled him for a while. However, now, no matter how gentle she was, the child was crying and screaming uncontrollably and would not calm down. It was still thrashing about and wanted to scratch itself.
