Chapter 33: Nanny (2/2)
”Your father is already at the age where he needs people to take care of him, since he is still in poor health. Didn't he have an accident in the beginning of the year? Alas, it’s all thanks to the child from the Tang family, but the child is also pitiful. I always see him being carried but his parents, and I also heard that he won’t be able to survive without someone taking care of him. It’s all because of the evil nanny, how can such a person do something like that to a child…”
Xia Ye moved her gas tank, and when he heard Aunt Sun talking about Tang Jinyu there, she asked, ”What did the nanny do?”
Aunt Sun said: ”You don't know? Oh, it happened years ago. Xiaoyu was only a year old, and was still in diapers. His parents were often busy working, so they hired a nanny to take care of him. You know, Xiaoyu used to be in poor health and he couldn't walk or talk. Is there any child that isn’t a little bit noisy when they are sick? I don’t know how he provoked the nanny that she grabbed him and pressed him against a hot stove!”
She frowned and said, “Thank god it was during the cold season, lucky he was wearing little cotton pants, but even if it protected him from the heat, the child’s buttocks were still burned and left with blisters. The nanny was so scared that she threw him and ran away.”
Xia Ye clenched his hand a little, put the gas tank, and asked her, ”Didn't they call the police?”
”Why wouldn’t they! The Tang couple came back home and when they saw this, they immediately called the police. At first, the nanny was not afraid, thinking if she just apologized it would be over with, but the Tang couple refused and went to find the best lawyer, and they sentenced her for two years in prison!”
Xia Ye still felt uncomfortable after hearing this.
After Aunt Sun finished speaking, she still wanted to mention the subject of introducing a person to Teacher Xia. Xia Ye said in return, ”I listen to my dad about this matter.”
Aunt Sun tried to be a matchmaker for a few days, but finally returned without success, feeling a little pity. At first, she wanted to take a small advantage, but when she came into contact, she really felt that Xia’s father and son were good. Teacher Xia treated people very kindly, which made her feel comfortable. Xia Ye is also very promising now, and he will definitely be the best son-in-law to have in the future.
Aunt Sun sighed with emotion, and on the other side, Xia Ye also returned home.
After he returned, he couldn't help asking his dad again, ”Dad, I heard that Xiaoyu was abused by a nanny before, is that true?”
Teacher Xia knew about this, and thought about it for a while and said: ”It happened a long time ago, Xiaoyu was still young. I heard that he was burned, and now it is no longer a hindrance.”
”How come I never heard about this?”
”You went to the provincial capital to participate in a computer competition that winter. When you came back, things were almost resolved. Uncle Tang also posted the court sentence at the gate of the community. After a little half a month, the other party was sentenced to two years. ”
Xia Ye vaguely remembered that there was such a thing posted at the gate of the community, but did not mention the reason, it only had the trial results. He was still in middle school, and only glanced at this casually.
Xia Ye asked again: ”Have you ever seen Xiaoyu's injury?”
Teacher Xia shook his head, ”I haven't seen it before.”
Xia Ye thought about it all night, and for the first time he couldn't fall asleep due to anxiety, but he also thought about the care and concern of Uncle Tang's family for the child, but he thought about how he was now recovering, and he slowly fell asleep.
When the children rushed over to eat oranges the next evening, Xia Ye couldn't help but stare at him.
Tang Jinyu didn't notice it, and took an orange to share it with Xia Ye. Today's tangerine is very big, with a soft skin and with a lot of juice, and he knew it was delicious at first glance.
Xia Ye didn't pick up the orange, looked at him for a while and asked: ”You…”
Tang Jinyu held his knee with a small hand and looked at him expectantly, ready to answer!
Xia Ye twisted his eyebrows slightly: ”Let me look at your butt.”
Tang Jinyu: ”???”
Xia Ye stretched out his hand to hug him, the child tried to dodge, tugging at his little trousers up and refused to show it, his face was blushing: ”Brother! Brother!”
”What?”
”Good brother! Don't look!”
”…”
”Little flatterer.”
In the end, Xia Ye didn’t force him, it wasn’t because he didn’t have the strength to do it, but because he was reluctant to bully the little guy.
He felt that the burn mark was probably ugly, so the child was told by his parents to keep anyone from seeing it. Xia Ye pondered for a moment, and hugged him up and put him on his knees and said: ”You are right, you must never show this to anyone in the future, you know? You have to know how to protect yourself because there are many bad people in this world.”
Tang Jinyu held his little butt in shock, and nodded repeatedly.
How could he show it to others casually!
He wasn’t someone who would show it off.
After Xia Ye educated his younger brother, his attention to Tang Jinyu also increased again.
This time he discovered another thing.
That was when he went home early on Saturday, when he happened to see another child at the door of Tang's house, lying on his head and talking to his brother, he looked like this was not the first time he has done this, it was clear that this wasn’t the first time he has come over.
