"No worries, focus on your test. I’m on the afternoon shift today, and I’m home in the morning. I’ll cook today. If you need to leave early, you can bring the child over to me, and I’ll take them to school."

During summer vacation, Wen Han visited the Zhang Family a few times. Cai Yuan is so accommodating because Qi Qi never nitpicked over many things. After all, with her kind of work, overtime is common. But people always said she took her child over, cared for the elderly and children until they returned, never once asking for extra overtime pay.

So when Qi Qi needed help, Cai Yuan would help as much as she could. Isn’t the core of human interactions the word ’sincerity’?

After finishing the test in the morning, it was around ten when she arrived at the driving school. She got home by half-past ten, just in time to pick up the eldest from first grade. While picking him up, she also bought some groceries. Upon returning, the elderly played with the children, not delaying lunch preparation. After serving lunch and letting the elderly and children finish eating, it was time for a nap. Around two in the afternoon, she had to send the child to school. Class lasted less than two hours, and at four-thirty, it was time for them to attend extracurricular classes. Meanwhile, she had to pick up Wen Han and the Zhang Family’s second young lady from kindergarten, and then get the Zhang Family’s eldest young master. Upon returning to the Zhang Family, it was almost six or seven o’clock.

Then there was preparing dinner for the children, and by around eight or nine, Zhang Qian and his wife returned one after another. This didn’t even include the time spent taking the elderly to see a doctor. By the end of the day, it was more than just busy; it was nonstop. Especially if they had to go to the hospital, it would take the whole day. Later, Cai Yuan considered this and directly let Qi Qi take care of the children. She used her night shifts to take the elderly herself.

Originally, it was said they wouldn’t need to worry after six o’clock, but each time it could drag on until eight or nine. Not to mention the delivery job was delayed, and her interaction time with her son reduced considerably. Although she could eat a meal at the Zhang Family, and they often gave children’s clothes, toys, books, and even the passwords for online early education courses for Wen Han’s benefit, Qi Qi still felt that she could only do this for another year. Once she saved enough for tuition and living expenses, she planned to give her child a normal home.

As for her ex-husband, after she posted the video the next day, returned the money to him, and severed all ties, there was no more movement.

Her life returned to the routine cycle of employer’s home, school, kitchen, training institutes, delivery service, and freelance jobs.

As the day got cooler, Qi Qi received old clothes for her and the child from Sister Cai. Despite being old, their quality was excellent, and Qi Qi did not mind, considering how much money was spent on clothes throughout the year. They were in great condition and very clean, leaving her no reason to decline. She accepted them all.

The part-time income in October was low, only amounting to two thousand yuan. Due to her fan count exceeding one hundred thousand, the video live stream had rewards and traffic, even without participating in product marketing, she earned one thousand three hundred yuan. Including the eight thousand salary, she made over 11,000. After deducting daily expenses, she saved up to 25,000 yuan.

Despite the busy October schedule, she didn’t forget going to the driving school to study for Subject Two. Due to her skillfulness, she studied for two weeks and scheduled and successfully passed Exam Two. Exam Three was faster; she could schedule it within a week, and smoothly passed Exam Three by the end of October, all on the first try.

She wasn’t nervous about the road test. While others might take two to three months or even four to get a driver’s license, she only took more than a month. She took the final Exam Four on November 3rd to obtain her license. When she shared the good news with Cai Yuan, Cai Yuan congratulated her, saying her abilities were impressive, especially since it took Cai Yuan four whole months to get her license, partly due to her busy work schedule.

With the driver’s license, picking up children became much more convenient. There was a pineapple nanny car at home, making grocery shopping and picking up the kids much easier, far more convenient than alternating between the bus and taxis.

Mid-November, Northern supply of heat began; her place was over forty square meters, with four months of heating fees below one thousand yuan, eight hundred to nine hundred yuan. She paid it to provide a comfortable environment for the child.

"If you need to use this car, you can take it home, making your trips much more convenient,"

Qi Qi refused Cai Yuan’s kindness: "No need, Sister Cai. I have an electric vehicle, it’s very convenient."

The car could shield from wind and rain, was safe, and a good thing, but it wasn’t hers, and outside of working hours, she wouldn’t use it.
