When people get old, in addition to their children, money, and health, the most important thing they care about is how to provide for them.
How do people take care of themselves when they are old? Many elderly people have different choices. Some still insist on the old-fashioned "raising children to protect themselves in old age", some choose to live in a nursing home, some choose to live alone to take care of themselves, and there are some who have money and hire nannies to take care of themselves.
65-year-old Uncle Liu has a pension and some savings, so the old man did not find his children or go to a nursing home, but chose to hire a nanny to provide for himself.
But the nanny hired by Uncle Liu suddenly proposed to live together with Uncle Liu, but Uncle Liu decisively refused.
Listen to the story of Uncle Liu who refused the nanny to remarry:
I am over 60 years old and have a son who has already started a family. My ex-wife and I divorced early. When we first got married, I always felt that she was the most suitable one. I also separated from my girlfriend whom I had been friends with for several years and even talked about getting married. Later, after the ex-wife gave birth to the child, she became a different person. She was lazy and used family money to give to her parents' family. Later, they got divorced after a quarrel. The child belongs to me, and now the child has a family and a career, and I am alone.
But I am already old. Fortunately, I still have pension and I still have savings before. So I plan to live alone and not cause trouble to my son.
But it is still a bit difficult to live alone. After all, I am getting older, so I hired a nanny, Aunt Sun, who is 55 years old. But she looks very kind and you can tell that she must have been a beauty when she was young. Aunt Sun also does things quickly and nimbly. Since
came to my house, my house has been kept clean and fresh, and my three meals a day are also different. I feel that life in old age is not bad.
I often go out for walks. Sometimes I feel that the nanny is tired of cooking every day, so I occasionally go out to eat and take Auntie Sun with me.
Auntie Sun, the nanny, was also divorced early. Although she is nearly 10 years younger than me, she and I can still chat. Sometimes when things are done at home, Auntie Sun will take the initiative to come and chat with me.
I think it’s not bad, after all, chatting is part of life.
Maybe I was too polite to the nanny Aunt Sun, which caused her to misunderstand. I've been working in my house for more than half a year.
Auntie Sun, the nanny, suddenly found me and wanted to pay me back the 5,000 yuan salary I had given her. I thought she didn't want to be a nanny anymore, and I thought she was doing a good job. I even said that if you had anything to say, I would agree if you asked for leave.
But what I didn’t expect was that the nanny Aunt Sun said: "Brother Liu, I have been very happy working as a nanny in your house for the past six months. I think you are a very nice person, with a good personality and a good temper. You don't even have various demands like other employers, and you won't let me do too much. So I don’t want your salary. You see, I don’t have a wife. I want to live with you. Do you think it’s okay?”
I was a little confused at the time. I didn’t expect that someone would take notice of me at my age, but I was still very calm at the time.
"Aunt Sun, you are a very nice person. I am not giving you a good person card, but I have been divorced and I am getting older. I don't want to get married again. Besides, you are not very good as a nanny and you can still get paid."
Aunt Sun felt a little sad when she heard this. She wanted to talk about it again, but I still refused. I thought I had money and I could hire a nanny. There is no problem in spending money to enjoy it.
But if I remarry the nanny, then I will have to pay for everything in his life. Not only that, no one can see through it. Who knows what the future will be like, but I can support my own life.
So I rejected the nanny’s request to remarry and live together, and I even let him go and found another nanny. I am getting older, and finding a wife to live with is a good choice, but I am not confused, I know how to live my old life, so I refused the nanny. I have money, a house, savings and pension.
I think it’s okay for me to spend money for enjoyment. I have my own rights, rather than finding someone to remarry. Even the older I get, the harder it is to tell. People think I may have found a free nanny, but who knows if they are here for my money.
So I want to tell many elderly people that remarriage should not be suitable for everyone, and especially the elderly. Although life is beautiful, it is necessary to be on guard against others. It is better to spend money where it should be used to make your life more worry-free.
