The typical salary for a local nanny ranges between 8,000 and 10,000 yuan.
Zhao Liang and Su Wen, determined to have the nanny fully dedicate herself to their child's care, tripled her offered rate.
They even locked in a one-year contract with her.
Factoring in additional benefits, the "golden-medal nanny" stood to earn a hefty sum of 500,000 yuan upon completion of the contract.
"That's a significant amount of money for her," Chen Yu acknowledged.
"If she told you she was sick and contagious, you definitely wouldn't have hired her. No amount of money justifies the risk."
"Not only did you offer a generous salary, but you also accommodated her every request," Chen Yu continued.
"You were a model employer—compliant and well-off. A rare find for any nanny."
Su Wen's sobs intensified.
"She risked my baby's health for a few hundred thousand yuan?!" Zhao Liang roared, his voice laced with fury. "This is unforgivable!"
