Chapter 2279
"Mom, why are you sad?" asked her elder son.
The younger son also raised his hand and wanted to wipe his mother's tears for her. However, his hand was very short, so he could not reach it. He then stomped his feet in frustration.
Ruth, who was feeling depressed, suddenly laughed, she hugged both her sons and said incredibly emotionally, "I... I am a woman with nobody to rely on and I don't have my biological family with me. Even if I do, they are also just mere commoners. I was very lonely in that huge mansion. I only have you two. Both of you are the only closest and dearest loved ones in my life. My babies. From now on, I will give it my all to be self-reliant and also an extremely strong mother."
"Mom, I love you."
"I love you."
Both the children wrapped both of their arms around Ruth tightly. Ruth's tears silently streamed down her face, she did not dare to spend too much time dwelling in sorrow. She only gave herself one night before she forced herself to pull herself together.
The following morning, she sent her children to the daycare center very early in the morning. That was a slightly smaller daycare center that Ruth had found. It was just a few minutes away from her workplace. The person that was especially in charge of her sons was a young lady in her forties named Lyra wind, she was from the countryside, but she was neatly dressed and she was very good with children. After the children had been taught by her for a week, they became very disciplined and well-mannered, and they were able to tidy up their own toys. Also, Lyra was very patient with children. Both Ruth's children were very fond of Lyra after only being with her for a week. Ruth had a very good impression of her.
"Miss Lyra, thank you so much. It's my honor to have met a caregiver like you in the daycare center. In the future, when my job is more stable and my pay is higher, I will give you a separate increment," said Ruth.
"Thank you. Thank you, Miss Mann. People who are out here working like US just simply want to make more money. My son is about to get married soon, so I'm saving up for his wedding. Miss Mann, you have many connections. Could you keep an eye out for me and help me find another part-time job? Not only can I take great care of children, but I can cook for others, take care of pregnant women, and so on. I'm very good at all that."
Ruth smiled as she understood her. Nobody was having it easy and it was all for the sake of living.
"Miss Wind, would you be able to cope if you were to get another part-time job while working as a caregiver?"
Lyra smiled and said, "I can. I work as a caregiver by day. At night, after all of you have picked up your children, I can still work for a few more hours. To be honest with you, Miss Mann, I can tutor children as well. I used to be a teacher. However, I was not a permanent teacher. Substitute teachers make very little back in my hometown. After I came to this big city, nobody wanted to hire me. Actually, I am very good at teaching. It's just that I don't have an opportunity..."
In the end, Lyra's expression appeared to be very miserable and helpless. 1
Ruth immediately agreed and said, "Alright, I'll keep an eye out for you."
"Thank you, Miss Mann."
