Bai Yajing nodded, "That's easy to handle. Yingzi's child is still young and we can't do without her. Besides, after we move, she'll be living a bit far from our house."
I was thinking, why don't we ask Sister Liu to come and help us with the chores? You and Grandpa both need to get some rest.”
Most importantly, Yingzi now has someone to rely on and is living a happy life. Her focus should be on her children and family now. Her family doesn't need the money she earns, so she doesn't have to work so hard.
Grandma had no objection: "She was able to raise such a good daughter, so her character and morals must be excellent."
Having just gotten to know her, she does seem to be a sensible and grateful person. You should have a good talk with her first.
Your grandfather and I have no objections.
She knew her granddaughter was filial and was afraid of tiring the elderly couple, so she couldn't bear to go against her wishes.
After agreeing on their plans, the two went to the kitchen to help with the cooking.
The fourth child is doing his homework in the house, while his grandfather has almost finished cooking the dishes.
When Sister Liu sat down at the table and saw the delicious dishes, she swallowed hard and felt extremely grateful.
"Thank you for spending so much! Actually, I'm fine with anything..."
Bai Yajing knew that she had probably misunderstood, so she smiled and put some food on Liu Dajie's plate. "Sister Liu, this is how we've always eaten at home, so don't feel guilty."
Eat more! You look much thinner than last time!
Sister Liu quickly wiped her hands clean, thanked her, and picked up the bowl to accept it.
"Sigh. I'm home alone. I'm busy with work during the week, and when I get home I'm exhausted, so I just grab a quick bite..."
Grandma knew that ordinary families lived frugally and understood her, but seeing how thin she was, she couldn't help but put food on her plate and said a few words of advice: "Xiao Liu, health is the foundation of everything."
"Only when you're healthy can you live a prosperous and fulfilling life, right?"
Sister Liu felt a lump in her throat. Her family members all wished she would die soon so they could give up her job to her nephew. Her husband's family was already gone.
After all these years of relying on my daughter, this is the first time someone I've just met has shown me such concern.
"Thank you, thank you all..."
She ate the food in her bowl with gusto, vaguely thinking that she hadn't had a proper meal in a long time.
After finishing her meal, she got up to tidy up but was stopped.
"Xiao Liu, you're still injured, let me take care of it!"
Grandpa finished packing in no time. Bai Yajing escorted her back to her room, and after thinking for a moment, she asked, "Big sister, is there something wrong with your work?"
Sister Liu was much more at ease now. She nodded helplessly, "The factory is not doing well, and many people have been forced to lay off one after another."
I'm in that group too. I just went to collect my salary today and someone started watching me..."
Bai Yajing understood perfectly that many old-established factories that fail to keep up with the times are easily eliminated in an era of diverse development; this is an inevitable path for development.
"Sister, as you can see from my home, my two elderly parents are getting on in years, and we have children at home. My husband is away at work, and I'm busy too."
So, I've always wanted to find a caring person to live with and take care of my family.
Sister Liu, would you like to consider coming to my house to work?
I'll give you forty yuan a month, including food and lodging, a new set of clothes every quarter, and four days off.
"If you do well, you'll get a bonus for the New Year!"
Sister Liu was stunned, feeling as if a pie had fallen from the sky!
"Really? Really? Can I... do it?"
"Hehehe, of course you can do it! If you agree, I'll go home with you tomorrow to get your clothes!"
Reform and opening up is a good thing, but we must not forget the ordinary people who have been crushed by the wheels of time.
Sister Liu choked up and nodded repeatedly, "I'll do it! I can do it! The factory is going to take my house back anyway..."
Waaaaah, Dr. Bai, you're practically my savior!
I will definitely take good care of the elderly and children!
