My daughter-in-law has added a big fat boy to our family. I hired her a gold medal confinement nanny for her, with a monthly salary of 15,000. At the end of the month, my daughter-in-law was out of confinement, so I paid the salary to her month nanny . But the confinement nanny didn't receive it and stammered and borrowed 50,000 yuan from me. After I agreed, she said something that shocked me.
I am Wang Mingtang, now 59 years old. My wife passed away a few years ago. I am the only one who runs a restaurant. I have to get up early and go to bed late every day, and I don’t have time to take care of my family. I have a son who just got married two years ago and he was planning a company. The daughter-in-law is in the same company as him. Due to work reasons, my son often travels on business trips.
They have been married for more than a year and their daughter-in-law is pregnant. It was not long before the baby was about to have a baby, and the whole family was very anxious because they didn’t have time to take care of their daughter-in-law. We discussed asking our mother-in-law to take care of our daughter-in-law. The mother-in-law said she was in poor health, and she was afraid that she would not be able to take care of her when she came, which would drag us down.
I had no choice but to hire a confinement nanny. My child’s aunt happened to hire a confinement nanny a few years ago, so I recommend it to us. The confinement nanny is called Xiuju, and she is a woman with quick hands and diligent work. The hands and feet are also clean.
That day, my son took Xiuju back. Xiuju looked very pretty and seemed to have seen her somewhere. She is 48 years old, speaks very casually and likes to laugh. She cooked a few specialties for us on the first day. The taste is very good. Especially my daughter-in-law likes to eat.
Since she was recommended by an acquaintance, we cannot neglect it. I decided to give her 15,000 a month. This price is very high for us locally. We are also very relieved to recommend it to an acquaintance.
On that day, I sent my daughter-in-law to the hospital for delivery. After Xiuju came, she told me what to prepare in advance. She was going to the hospital on the day of preparation. We took the prepared things and went.
After the birth of the child, Xiuju got busy, taking care of the baby, sleeping, and taking a bath. In addition, she also washed her daughter-in-law's clothes clean and tidy, and had to clean the house and cook for us. She didn't expect that she could do so many things herself. And the arrangement is in order.
We chatted with her when we were free. Xiuju is less than 50 years old now, and she didn't expect that her daughters would start a family and start a career. She also has a son who has just graduated from college. She has a support for her two children by relying on her own efforts. Her husband had an accident while working on the construction site a few years ago, and Xiuju lived alone with her two children. I felt very sympathetic to her after knowing her life.
We are usually busy. In addition to our daughter-in-law, we are Xiuju and children. We don’t have time to go out to buy vegetables. I give the daily living expenses to Xiuju. Xiuju is very straightforward and will pay back the remaining money for buying things.
A month passed quickly. After the daughter-in-law finished her confinement period, Xiuju was about to leave. I asked my son to send Xiuju back, but she said that the children were busy with work, so she would not delay him. Just go back by yourself. Unexpectedly, she still thought about us after just one month of getting along. I gave her the prepared salary. In order to thank her for her careful care, I gave her an extra 500 yuan, but she didn't charge it. She wanted to say anything to us, but she stopped talking. I wondered if I was reluctant to let us go.
Xiuju stammered and didn't explain clearly. I asked her if she thought it was too little, and she shook her head. I knew she had something to do, so she asked her to tell her, but she said she wanted to borrow 50,000 yuan. Her son wanted to buy a house, but although he didn't speak to her, she wanted to fill some of it for her son.
Xiuju is a great mother. Not only has a stubborn personality, but her love for her children is also vividly. I was moved by her love, so I agreed to lend her 50,000 yuan. Not only that, I handed her the salary and said, "This is your salary, and it is also what you have worked hard to earn. You must collect it. One code is one code!"
I kept saying no, and I kept insisting, but she said something, and I understood why she did that. Just 20 years ago, Xiuju had just come out to work and the money in her hands was stolen. She wagged on the street for two days. One day, she passed by a restaurant and she was so hungry, but she had no money in her hands and kept wandering around the gate.My wife happened to come out and saw her. After learning about her situation, she made two bowls of noodles for her. Then my wife gave her another 500 yuan. At that time, she took the money and found a job here. She happened to meet her child's aunt, so they became friends.
has been happening 20 years, and even I have forgotten it myself. I didn’t expect that she will always remember it in my heart. Xiuju said she was sad when she knew my wife had passed away, so she wanted to do something for us. Now I have given out another 50,000 yuan to help her. She is really grateful to our family. I put my salary and 50,000 yuan in her schoolbag. She looked back at me, tears flashing in her eyes.
suddenly said to me, "I have an idea. I don't know if you want it or not. Let's live together in the future, and I can take good care of you!"
Xiuju said this and left me speechless. To be honest, I like Xiuju very much and want to help her, but the children don't know if they will agree, let alone I am much older than her, which is unfair to her.
Everyone said, what should I do?
