As evening approached, Luther and Cecelia returned home together. Earlier that afternoon, they had interviewed several postpartum nannies who had passed two rounds of screening.
Upon their return, they had decided to hire two of the nannies.
Coincidentally, two nannies sent by the warlord, who were also relatives of the warlord, arrived at the same time.
Cecelia brought the four new middle-aged women back home together.
Joyce had taken a long nap in the afternoon and woke up close to evening. The noisy return of Andres and Alisha in the bitter cold was what woke her up.
After getting up, she lay down for a bit, then went to the dining room to have some snacks. Cecelia had already prepared everything neatly on the table before leaving.
Andres and Alisha also had some snacks. Alisha told Joyce about a few things that happened at school.
Just then, Cecelia returned with the women, with Luther following behind.
Joyce walked out of the dining room and into the living room.
Luther saw Joyce and quickly helped her to the sofa, "Sit down and try not to move too much."
Joyce nodded and sat down, glancing at the people behind Cecelia.
There were four middle-aged women in total, two younger and two older.
One of the older women looked very competent. Her hair was neatly coiled at the back of her head, she wore black-framed glasses, a dark blue suit with a white shirt, and even a formal tie. She looked every bit the part of a housekeeper.
The other looked kind and approachable, with simple permed hair, two curved eyebrows, a smile on her lips, and some wrinkles on her forehead, adding to her warmth.
The two slightly younger middle-aged women seemed about 10 years younger.
One looked sunny and energetic, with her hair tied up in a high ponytail, dressed in a more sporty style.
The other appeared shy and even a bit reserved, her hands nervously fidgeting. But she seemed particularly meticulous, as her cuffs were neatly rolled up, and she had a pen and notebook in her pocket, ready to take notes at any time, clearly a detail-oriented person.
After observing them, Cecelia began introductions.
Pointing to the competent-looking woman, she said, "She was sent by the warlord, you can call her Mrs. Hurley. She previously managed the household affairs of the warlord's family and is familiar with procurement and other matters. She will be in charge of household procurement and distribution in the future."
Joyce nodded, thinking that Mrs. Hurley's surname was Qin, likely having some distant relationship with her mother for her mother to trust her so easily.
"This one we will call Jane, she has four children of her own and raised them by herself. She also helps take care of the warlord's family's children. She is patient and good-tempered," Cecelia said, pointing to the kind-looking Jane.
"Luther and I interviewed them all afternoon and have temporarily selected these two." Cecelia pointed to the two slightly younger nannies, "This is Mrs. Brown and this is Mrs. Powell."
