Chapter 1,701 New Year
Comparing them, grandsons are indeed not as good as granddaughters. Among the three grandsons, only Sanbao is in the same group with him.
At this time, Zhai Yaohui was still very fortunate that Qiao Nan not only gave birth to a grandson, but also a granddaughter. If there was only a grandson who cheated his wife away at home, then the life of this lonely old man would be really difficult.
Just as he was muttering, Zhai Yu brought a newspaper over: "Grandpa, can I read the newspaper to you now?"
Zhai Yaohui is old and has presbyopia, but his temper is worse than when he was young. It is not easy to coax him, and he just doesn't want to wear glasses. He feels that it is particularly uncomfortable to put it on the bridge of his nose. However, since he was young, Zhai Yaohui has maintained the habit, and he has to read several newspapers a day to understand the national conditions.
Without glasses, he can't read the small print on the newspaper. Wearing glasses, Zhai Yaohui feels uncomfortable and wants to lose his temper. Qiao Nan spent a lot of time thinking about this matter. Knowing that Zhai Yaohui was not convenient to stay at home and was not willing to go out, she simply thought of a way. She picked out a lot of frames and let Zhai Yaohui try them on.
She would take Zhai Yaohui to this store to get a pair of reading glasses after Zhai Yaohui tried them on and felt comfortable. It was a pity that after two or three days of worrying, Zhai Yaohui did not say which pair he was comfortable with, and Qiao Nan was exhausted in the end.
Seeing Zhai Yaohui tormenting Qiao Nan like this, Miao Liang got angry. If he didn't like to wear glasses, why did he get a pair? He would not get a pair. It was not Nan Nan who felt uncomfortable without reading the newspaper, but Zhai Yaohui himself. Zhai Yaohui would rather be uncomfortable than wear glasses. Why did others worry about Zhai Yaohui and think of ways to deal with him?
As he got older, she felt that Zhai Yaohui's temper was much more excessive than when he was young. He was too pretentious. Fortunately, Qiao Nan was patient and did not think that Zhai Yaohui was a bad father-in-law. She was busy with her own work, but she was willing to accompany Zhai Yaohui to such troubles.
Miao Liang directly scolded Zhai Yaohui. If it was someone else's daughter-in-law, Zhai Yaohui could try it. Who would pay attention to him!
After being scolded by Miao Liang, Zhai Yaohui had to stop and dared not to make trouble. Finally, the good-tempered Qiao Nan said that if she didn't like wearing glasses, she wouldn't wear them. Usually, she had more time at work, but in the morning and evening, she could take out about half an hour to read the newspaper to her father-in-law.
It's just that his eyes are not good, not that his ears are broken. If he can't see, he can listen.
It wasn't until Qiao Nan thought of this method that the family was at peace.
Usually, it was Qiao Nan's job to read the newspaper to Zhai Yaohui. Now, the three children went home for the New Year, especially Zhai Yu, who came home the earliest, naturally took over this job from her mother and read the newspaper to Zhai Yaohui, the grandfather, every day.
After Zhai Yu came to read, Zhai Yaohui could listen to the newspaper for a longer time every day, just like reading it himself, until he had turned the whole newspaper to pieces, and then he felt satisfied.
"Okay, read the newspaper." When Zhai Yaohui heard his granddaughter say this, the little discomfort in his heart just now quickly disappeared. Miao Miao has two grandsons to coax, and he also has a granddaughter to accompany him. No wonder they say that daughters are little cotton-padded jackets, and Sanbao is grandfather's little cotton-padded jacket.
The aunt at home couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief after seeing the three children deal with Zhai Yaohui and Miao Liang respectively. Compared with other employers, the people in the Zhai family are really good-tempered. The status of this family is so high, but they treat her very approachable.
If she hadn't known what kind of family hired her, she would have thought that this family was just an ordinary family, and their temper was too good.
It's just that some things are relative. No matter how good the employer is, there will be times when he loses his temper. What makes her feel fortunate is that the host family has never been angry with her, the "aunt". Usually, it was Qiao Nan who took care of the two elderly people in the family.
It was rare to find a daughter-in-law who got along so well with her parents-in-law.
Now, the three children of the host family were back, and the two elderly people were coaxed to be happy every day, and they never got angry.
These three children were well educated by the hostess Qiao Nan. No matter how the elderly made a fuss, the younger ones had no opinion. It was also Qiao Nan who set a good example. Which daughter-in-law could take care of her parents-in-law so attentively.
Thinking that Zhai Sheng spent much less time at home than other male owners, and that neither of them could stay at home every day, and that Qiao Nan had to be busy and take care of everything at home, the aunt felt that Qiao Nan was not easy, and it was too hard.
Faced with such a situation, Qiao Nan arranged everything properly, so that the elderly could live a comfortable life. No wonder the atmosphere of the Zhai family was different from that of other families, and was particularly good. It was also her blessing to be able to come to the Zhai family to work.
In the heart of the young aunt, Qiao Nan was silently positioned: a good Chinese daughter-in-law.
She also had a son at home. When her son grew up, even if she couldn't find a daughter-in-law as good as the mistress, she had to find one that matched the mistress's temper. A girl who didn't look like the mistress at all was definitely not acceptable. She was afraid that after working all her life and devoting her life to the family, she would still have to endure the anger of her daughter-in-law when she was old, and no one would take care of her when she was sick.
Qiao Nan didn't know that her young aunt had so many thoughts in her heart. This young aunt was younger than Qiao Nan, and Qiao Nan asked the young aunt to call her Sister Qiao directly.
"Okay, today is New Year's Eve. Go home and spend the New Year with your family before it gets completely dark. Your son is still young. He will probably cry if he doesn't see you again." Seeing that it was almost seven o'clock, Qiao Nan asked the aunt to take off her apron and go home to spend the New Year with her family.
As for everything at home, there would be no big problem with her.
"Then Sister Qiao, I'll go back first?" The aunt was very happy. She did everything she could. Originally, she also began to worry about when she could go back to accompany her son. As soon as the host spoke, the aunt knew that she could really go back.
"Go back." Qiao Nan put the apron that the aunt had taken off back to its place, and stuffed a red envelope into the aunt: "You have worked hard this year. I will continue to trouble you to take care of us next year. Happy New Year, buy some candy for the children."
It was not the first time that the aunt took a New Year's red envelope from Qiao Nan. The money in the red envelope was not particularly much, so much that it was scary, but for ordinary people, it was not a small amount, almost catching up with her two months' salary.
As a New Year's red envelope, this number is not small.
