302 Recognizing Maternal Grandfather From A Photo On The Wall
Chu Cimo could sense the butler’s shocked emotions. He cluelessly glanced at the resume and soon saw what Shen Ruojing had written in the ‘education segment’.
Chu Cimo. “…”
He twitched his lips and his first reaction was that Shen Ruojing was bragging.
However, he naturally couldn’t expose this since they were all family. He immediately seized the resume back and guiltily shouted, “Did you see it? My sister-in-law is also very impressive!”
At this moment, the door of the first room suddenly swung open and Shen Wanying walked out. Her deep gaze swept past the scene before finally landing on Shen Ruojing. “Miss Shen and Mr. Chu, the dean feels somewhat uncomfortable, and I’m currently in the midst of diagnosing her. Can I trouble you guys to wait for a little while in the other room? Please don’t make such a scene outside.”
Shen Ruojing lifted her eyebrows.
This sentence made it sound as though Shen Ruojing’s group was the one finding trouble.
If it wasn’t for the butler’s attitude being so arrogant, wanting to chase them away, how would Chu Cimo quarrel with him?
However, since the dean was in the midst of a diagnosis, the few of them were cultured enough and couldn’t be bothered to argue with Shen Wanying. In addition, one of the staff members also came over and said, “Mr. Chus, Miss Shen, Miss Bai, let me bring you guys to another room instead. Please come with me.”
After Shen Ruojing and the others entered the other room, Shen Wanying then looked at the butler. “When outside, don’t keep comparing things. I’m not learning knowledge so you can use me as an example to brag to others.”
The butler obediently lowered his head. “Madam, I was wrong. I hated how arrogant they were. They truly have no idea about the immensity of heaven and earth!”
Shen Wanying cast a deep gaze at him, and the butler immediately lowered his head and entered the first room with her.
In the room.
Matriarch Bai and an elegant-looking lady were seated together. Both of them had white hair and their faces were filled with wrinkles. However, Matriarch Bai exuded a feeling of strictness while Dean Lin Yi emitted a gentle aura.
The dispute outside was naturally heard by the two of them.
At this moment, Lin Yi also had Chu Cichen and Shen Ruojing’s resumes in her hands!
Shen Wanying returned to Lin Yi. As she was feeling her pulse, she also took a glance at the resume in Lin Yi’s hands and sighed in admiration, “Miss Shen is only in her twenties, yet she already has two doctorates. But why have I not heard about this matter when I was in school?”
Matriarch Bai sneered. “Since even you have not heard of this before, this must be fake. In this era, the cost of faking a resume isn’t high.”
After saying that, she looked at Lin Yi. “What’s going on with your kindergarten? Why are you allowing all sorts of people to join?”
Lin Yi placed the resume down while bitterly smiling in her heart.
It was because a big boss from overseas had sent someone to contact her!
She had no idea what sort of backing the Chu Family had. Not only did that big boss want to protect them, but he even sent someone over to handle the initial screening. Hence, even if she knew that their resumes might be fake, she wouldn’t dare to make any noise.
However, because that big boss wanted to keep his identity a secret, Lin Yi didn’t dare to say anything much to her best friend. She could only smile calmly and explain, “The main thing is that those three children are indeed geniuses. This is why we made an exception.”
Lin Yi no longer wanted to talk about this, so she looked at Shen Wanying and said, “My stomach problem is an old ailment. You don’t have to do a check-up for me every month.”
After retracting the hand she was taking Lin Yi’s pulse with, Shen Wanying took the small pillow that Lin Yi’s hand was resting on for the pulse-reading. She then kept the pillow inside a chinese medicine box that she always brought along with her. After that, she took out a bottle of pills and passed it to Lin Yi. “Your stomach’s condition still isn’t very good, so you have to pay attention to it. You cannot catch a cold. You should feel better after eating two of these pills.”
Lin Yi frowned after hearing this.
A personal nanny standing beside Lin Yi immediately spoke, “But our dean has not come in contact with any cold things recently.”
Shen Wanying continued, “We cannot be anxious for things like stomach pain. We have to nurture it back to health very slowly. Do you feel more relieved after eating the medicine?”
Lin Yi nodded. “Indeed.”
After saying that, she stood up. “You guys wait here first. I’ll come back after I conclude the interview.”
The two of them nodded.
After she left, Matriarch Bai stood up.
Shen Wanying hurriedly went to support her.
Matriarch Bai sighed. “We should go and look at the photo wall. Back when your second uncle was around five to six years old, he attended kindergarten here too. He is very intelligent and even said that he wanted to become a mechanic when he grew up. There’s a photo of him on the photo wall…”
A hint of loathing flashed in Shen Wanying’s eyes.
Second uncle, second uncle. This old woman was always talking about him…
However, she suppressed the impatience in her heart and smiled as she supported Matriarch Chu out. “Grandma, earlier, there was a dispute between my butler and the Chu Family. I wonder if it would make ninth brother and Miss Yun unhappy. At that time, if they mention it to grandpa, I’m afraid Zhongzhang is going to be implicated because of this.”
Matriarch Bai immediately replied, “Regardless of the Chus or Yuns, they are small families, so why are you worried about them? There’s no need to care at all. Don’t worry, with me here, that old man doesn’t even need to think about bullying you two!”
Shen Wanying’s eyes flashed and her smile was filled with more sincerity.
On the other side, Lin Yi looked at her nanny the moment she exited the door. “Earlier, you shouldn’t have said those words before Miss Shen. If she dares to say her medical skill in the capital is ranked second, no one would dare to say they are first. It’s already an honor that she is willing to diagnose me for free.”
The nanny nodded and had a worried look on her face. “However, your stomach pain keeps recurring frequently nowadays. I’m a little worried.”
Lin Yi didn’t say anything and simply followed the nanny to the second room for the interview.
The parents and four kids were all here.
Lin Yi thought and felt that the words that might be said later weren’t suitable for the children to hear. Hence, she smiled and instructed the staff members, “Bring these four children out to play. You can lead them to the photo wall for a look. That place contains all the honors won by our students.”
“Alright.”
The staff was very experienced when it came to coaxing children and soon garnered their interest. The children then followed the staff as they headed to the photo wall.
They kept chatting non-stop on the way there.
The overall area of this chinese-styled kindergarten actually wasn’t large. This was also more convenient for the kindergarten teacher. They could look after the children better.
The four children arrived at the photo wall earlier compared to Matriarch Bai.
When Matriarch Bai came, she just so coincidentally heard their juvenile voices chatting.
Chu Yu shouted, “Xiaoqi, why are you in that photo? Something is wrong, the date written is over 40 years ago, but this person looks exactly like you!”
After that, Chu Tianye’s envious voice rang out. “My heavens, he really does look like you! Could he be your maternal grandfather?” After that, he continued spiritedly in an excited voice, “Or is he your paternal grandfather? Could it be that you have an inheritance that can be claimed?”
Chu Xiaoqi’s clear voice also rang out, “Are you silly? Isn’t my paternal grandfather the same as your paternal grandfather?! My father is your father’s younger brother!”
“Oh, right.” Chu Tianye immediately realized this and spoke in a greatly disappointed tone, “That should be your maternal grandpa then. Aiya, I don’t have a share in the inheritance~”
The others. “…”
