On the other hand, when the Jiang Family Parents heard about hiring a housekeeper, they immediately spoke up, saying, "There's no need, is there? We are here to take care of the house, aren't we? Besides, we don't have jobs. Having something to do makes us feel at ease."
In their view, hiring a housekeeper was a pure waste of money. They thought they've already spent so much on buying the house, so they had to be frugal.
"Uncle, Auntie, I understand what you mean. But this house is so big, and it needs to be cleaned every day. You also have to help my sister look after the child, where would you find the time?" Shangguan Wenbin naturally knew the two elders were used to being frugal and understood their mindset of saving wherever possible.
But some expenses can't be saved on, such as the cost of hiring a housekeeper. A professional housekeeper can keep the house spotlessly clean, without missing a spot here or there.
