Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den
Chapter 246 Aunt Li, the Confinement Nurse
In the nursery, sunlight shines through the half-closed curtains and gently falls on the two small cribs.
The two babies, as if they had heard the bird's call, opened their curious eyes at the same time, exploring the novelty of the world with their childish eyes.
Two confinement nannies, the experienced Aunt Li and the inexperienced but equally attentive Aunt Wu, are busy and orderly taking care of the two little lives.
They first gently picked up the baby and patiently fed her, the scene was full of maternal radiance and tenderness. Then, the two of them cooperated tacitly to change the baby into comfortable and breathable pajamas, each piece of clothing seemed to carry endless care and love for the baby.
After changing their clothes, the two babies were placed next to the crib. Their little hands and feet waved from time to time, making "babbling" sounds, as if expressing their curiosity and joy about the world.
The confinement nannies stood aside, looking at them with smiles, waiting for the next arrangements from their hosts, Ji Yan and his wife.
At this time, Aunt Li gently patted Aunt Wu's shoulder and whispered, "Xiao Wu, look, the two little guys are awake. The master and the mistress must still be busy at the moment. Why don't you go down and tell them and ask them what to do next."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Wu lowered her head and thought for a moment, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes.
"Sister Li, I also want to go down and notify them, but I'm worried that you can't handle it here by yourself. What if..." There was a barely perceptible worry in her voice.
Aunt Li saw Xiao Wu's concerns and quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, Xiao Wu, I can handle it by myself. Besides, everything in the nursery is in order, so there won't be any big problems."
"If there is any emergency, I can always call the bodyguards outside to come in and help. Just go ahead and don't worry about it. Don't let the madam and the gentleman wait anxiously."
After hearing Aunt Li's assurance, Aunt Wu finally felt relieved.
She looked at Aunt Li gratefully, nodded, and said firmly, "Okay! Sister Li, I'll leave this to you. I'll go tell the gentleman and the lady right away. No problem, I'll be back soon."
After saying that, Aunt Wu turned around and tiptoed out of the nursery, fearing to disturb the sleeping little angels.
Aunt Li kept watching her leave with a smile on her face, until her figure disappeared behind the door. Then she withdrew her gaze and turned her attention back to the two babies, continuing to protect this tranquility and warmth.
She stood in the empty living room. There was plenty of sunlight outside the window. A few rays of sunlight barely filtered through the gaps in the curtains, adding a bit of warmth to the quiet and cozy house.
Her eyes were gentle and complex, and she slowly lowered them to the crib not far away. The baby was lying quietly, with a round face and trembling eyelashes, as if she was having a sweet dream.
That innocence softened Aunt Li's heart involuntarily, but was then overwhelmed by an indescribable bitterness.
"Baby, I'm sorry..."
She whispered softly, her voice was thin as a thread, but full of endless helplessness and guilt. She knew that the decision she was about to make might bring unpredictable storms to this innocent little life.
The sound of the vibrating cell phone seemed particularly abrupt in the silence. Aunt Li shuddered, as if something suddenly pulled her back to reality.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself, but her fingers still trembled unconsciously and she slowly slid open the lock screen of her phone.
On the screen, a photo caught her eye. It was a picture of a mother and her child embracing each other warmly. The smiling mother held her young child tightly, her eyes full of love and happiness. This photo was like a sharp blade, cutting her heart one by one.
"It's all to pay off the debt..."
Aunt Li muttered to herself, her eyes gradually turning red. Her husband, the man who once vowed to give her and her children a happy future, is now addicted to gambling, has lost all his family fortune, and is in huge debt.
Those debt collection calls and text messages were like an endless nightmare that made her feel suffocated.
At this moment, the cell phone vibrated again. It was a message from Su Su: "Sister Li, it's getting late. Are you sure? If you want to get the money, act quickly." The short words were like a huge rock, weighing heavily on her heart.
Aunt Li closed her eyes, and countless images flashed through her mind: her baby's smiling face, her husband's remorse, and those endless debts... Finally, she opened her eyes, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes.
"I'm ready."
She typed these words with difficulty and pressed the send button.
At this moment, she seemed to have made the most difficult decision in her life. But she also knew that for the sake of her baby and her family, she had to do this, even if the road was full of thorns and there was an unknown abyss ahead.
……
At this time, outside the baby room, a young servant dressed simply and with a slightly nervous look on his face, was slowly approaching the carved wooden door, holding an empty basket tightly in his hand.
There was anxiety in her eyes and she walked with extreme caution, as if she was afraid of disturbing the sleeping little angel.
"Stop!" A cold and powerful voice suddenly rang out, like an ice blade in the cold night, breaking the tranquility around.
The servant shuddered suddenly, and when she looked up, she saw a tall, stern-faced bodyguard standing in front of her, his sharp eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts.
"You...what are you going to do?"
The bodyguard's voice was cold, but it was clearly heard by the servant.
The maid became even more flustered by this sudden question. She quickly lowered her head and tried to make her voice sound steady.
"I...I was called by Aunt Li. She asked me to take the young master and young lady's dirty clothes to wash."
As she spoke, she gently raised the empty basket in her hand to show that she meant no harm.
The bodyguard's eyes lingered on the servant for a moment, as if he was examining the truthfulness of her words. After a moment, his tense expression relaxed a little, and his tone softened a little.
"I see. Go in, but remember to be careful and don't disturb the little master."
After getting permission, the servant finally felt relieved. She looked at the bodyguard with gratitude. Although the bodyguard still had no expression on his face, she could feel the responsibility and care hidden behind his indifference.
She nodded gently, pushed open the door carefully, and stepped into the little world full of warmth and tranquility.
