Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

"Please take a seat, all three of you. Just a simple meal, you're welcome."

Zeng Jiafan still didn't completely believe that his second sister-in-law was not his sister after leaving Kang's house that day, because Su's father and mother couldn't produce his second sister-in-law's birth certificate to prove that she was his biological daughter. He still felt that Su's father and mother just said that because they didn't want to lose their adopted daughter, so he secretly contacted his second brother and second sister-in-law to invite them out for dinner.

The second brother and his wife didn't want to agree at first, but after thinking about it, they dragged Kang Qirui along to the appointment. The second brother took a look at the food, approached Kang Qirui and whispered, "The staff meal at Ruhao Tea Restaurant is more than this. Do you think he is so insistent on recognizing Achan as his younger sister because he wants to take advantage of our property?"

"How much property do you have to give to others for free?" Kang Qirui responded in a low voice without any words.

"Hey, let me tell you, I..." Before the second brother could say anything, Zeng Jiafan called him and asked him if he wanted something to drink. He quickly sat up straight and said, "Just a bottle of beer will do." He thought that Zeng Jiafan didn't have much money, so he just asked for a beer.

"Beer?" Zeng Jiafan was stunned for a moment, then turned around and waved, "A Ling, bring me my beer."

"Okay, wait a moment." The waitress A Ling agreed and went out of the room to get some wine. After a while, she came back with a bottle of XO. "Please drink, all three of you. Rinse your mouths first." Zeng Jiafan politely poured a glass of wine for each of Kang Qirui and the others.

"Use XO to rinse your mouth?" Er Lao was stunned. He suddenly felt that Zeng Jiafan was very rich. He couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Zeng, do you mind if I ask what you do?"

Zeng Jiafan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't mind, don't mind. I forgot to tell you that I'm in the construction industry." Kang Qirui followed up his words and asked: "I just heard the waiter call you Mr. Zeng. May I ask where Zeng Sheng works?"

"This is my business card." Zeng Jiafan handed his business card to everyone and said, "I am now the general manager of Fugui Real Estate." He paused and continued, "I invited you to dinner this time because I still want to do a DNA test. My sister and I have been missing for 42 years. The biggest regret of my parents when they were dying was that they didn't find my sister. I finally found you, and I really can't bear not to do this DNA test. If it's true, that's great. If it's not, I'll be at peace. Let's be friends in the future and have give and take, okay?"

The second brother and his wife looked at each other. Kang Qirui had always been against doing DNA because he didn't want to fall into the trap of self-proof. But after listening to Zeng Jiafan's heartfelt words, he also understood that Zeng Jiafan would probably not be able to sleep at night if this matter didn't come to a conclusion. He saw the second brother and his wife winking at him and asking for his opinion, so he nodded and told them that he thought it could be done.

The second brother and his wife agreed, and after dinner they went to the DNA testing center. After the test, they were told that the results would not be available until a week later, and this was after they paid extra money to expedite the process.

After Kang Qirui and his second brother and second sister-in-law parted ways with Zeng Jiafan at the DNA testing center, they did not go home immediately, but went to the housekeeping company. The nanny they hired before, Xiu Gu, resigned before the New Year and said that she would not come after the New Year. Her daughter-in-law gave birth to a grandson for her, and she had to go back to take care of her daughter-in-law and grandson.

But Kang Qirui and the other two interviewed several nannies at the housekeeping company, but none of them satisfied them. The main reason was that the ones recommended by the housekeeping company were basically from other provinces, and they were not very good at Cantonese cuisine, but Lao Dou's mother had to eat Cantonese cuisine.

Kang Qirui and the other two returned to the Kang family with a disappointed look on their faces, and saw Aunt Gui, the old friend of Mazi, coming and busying around in the kitchen. Kang Qirui couldn't help but ask, "Mazi, Aunt Gui is a guest, how can you let her work?"

"Oh, what do you think I'm thinking?" The maid rolled her eyes at Kang Qirui, then sighed and said, "Agui came home today, and I wanted to cook a meal for her, but the temperature has dropped in the past two days and my hands get rheumatic pain when they touch cold water. Agui saw me like this and rushed to cook for me. What can I do?"

After a while, Aunt Gui had prepared the food. "Come, it's time to eat." Zhu Wanling and her second sister-in-law helped to bring out the food, and Aunt Gui said, "We're still missing one dish: braised pork knuckle with soybeans. I'll go in and take a look. You guys can eat first."

Er Lao was drinking the stewed watercress and kidney cooked by Aunt Gui. Looking at the delicious food on the table, he rolled his eyes and suggested, "Why don't we ask Aunt Gui to be our nanny? What do you think?"

"I agree!" Sachiko nodded and said, "But Aunt Gui is Mom's sister, isn't that a bit inconvenient?"

"I think what the third sister-in-law said is right." The second sister-in-law expressed her concerns, "It's hard to ask for help when we are so familiar with each other, and there is also the issue of salary. If you give her too much, you will feel reluctant, and if you give her too little, you will feel embarrassed." Everyone nodded and agreed with the second sister-in-law's words. Zhu Wanling waved her hand and said, "We will just give her the market price, so that no one will suffer." She has been managing the house rental business for the past few years, and bargaining is a common thing. She has become familiar with it. She paused and continued, "The biggest problem now is that Aunt Gui is grandma's sister. How can we have the nerve to ask her to be a nanny."

"Why are you embarrassed?" Before Zhu Wanling finished her words, Aunt Gui came out with a plate of braised pork knuckles with soybeans. She put it down and interrupted her, saying, "I heard what you said just now. You want me to be your live-in nanny, right?"

"Yes." Kang Qirui responded slightly embarrassedly: "The nanny we hired before resigned because of family matters, and we haven't found a suitable one. Seeing that the food you cook, Aunt Gui, is so delicious, I thought I would see if you are willing to do it."

"No problem!" Aunt Gui agreed without thinking, "You don't have to think too much. Since I've agreed, I will definitely do my best. Just ask me to do whatever you want. Don't be shy. As for the salary, just give me 1000 yuan a month. What do you think?"

保姆行业可谓是发展非常快速的，05年北上广深的保姆平均工资仅为800块一个月，到了2011年就快速跃升到3500元。到2020年更是突破9000元大关达到了9660元，十五年时间时间翻了12倍。

Today in 06, 1000 yuan a month is a very reasonable price. Seeing Aunt Gui so readily agreed on behalf of everyone, Kang Qirui said, "No problem, it's settled. Aunt Gui, sit down and have dinner with us."

On the first day that Aunt Gui worked as a nanny in the Kang family, she cleaned the whole family, wiping the tables and chairs clean. She also reorganized the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and seasonings in the kitchen, taking out those that were about to expire to use first to avoid waste.

"Come on, the clothes are all washed, come and claim them." When everyone finished dinner and watched TV in the evening, Aunt Gui collected and folded the clothes washed today and took them to the living room to distribute them to everyone according to the households. "This is for A Guang's family, and this is for A Zong's family. The underwear, panties and socks are all here, check to see if you have made any mistakes."

"Aunt Gui is amazing. It's only the first day, but she's already sorted out the clothes clearly. She even knows whose socks belong to whom." Zhu Wanling took a quick look and praised Aunt Gui after confirming that they were all her own clothes.

Aunt Gui waved her hand and said modestly, "It's not that difficult. If you pay more attention, you will know the differences in the socks each of you wear. It will be easy to separate them when you put away the clothes."

"But the underwear cannot be seen when worn inside, so how do you tell them apart?" Xianglan asked in a low voice embarrassedly. She was mainly curious.

"That's just a guess!" Aunt Gui said with a smile.

"Guessed?" Everyone became curious and wanted to know how she guessed. Aunt Gui smiled and told her own thoughts: "It's not difficult. For example, A Yao and his wife pay more attention to the quality of life, and they all buy branded underwear. Although A Zu and Diana are also branded, theirs are foreign brands. A Guang is the easiest to recognize. You are the fattest, so the biggest one must be yours."

Aunt Gui took a sip of water and continued, "Xianglan definitely won't buy expensive things, but Achan is different. She buys expensive and trendy things. Azong, Arui and Wanling all wear Metersbonwe, but Azong likes to wear triangles, Arui likes to wear boxers, and Wanling wears women's clothes. Don't you think they are easy to tell apart?"

"What about the children? How did you divide them?" Kang Qirui asked.

"Children's clothes are bought by their parents, so they stay the same." Aunt Gui said with great experience: "Tianxiu, Tianyou and Paul are so many years apart. The big one among the boys' underwear is Tianxiu's, the small and cheap ones are Tianyou's, and the branded one is Paul's."

"Although the age difference between the girls is not big, a one-year difference is already a big difference for children, so the girl's size that is obviously smaller is Zhizi's, Siyu's is the same brand as Achan's, and the rest are Siqi's."

Kang Qirui gave a thumbs up, "I admire you so much! Aunt Gui, I really can't help but write a word of admiration for you." (End of this chapter)
