"Dad! No matter how much you ask us for money, as your children, we should be filial to you. But you can't let Xiao Tao go to work no matter what you say!"
"He's only a freshman in high school this year, a teenager. How can he hold his head up in front of his classmates if you do this?"
Kang Shulan learned from her son that her father-in-law had found a summer job for her son just as the summer vacation began, and he was washing dishes in someone else's kitchen. She was so angry that she immediately went home to question him.
An Xiaotao didn't want to do it but didn't dare to resist, so he could only go to his mother with a wronged look on his face.
Kang Shulan was so anxious that she didn't even go to work. She called her husband and went home to ask about An Jingzhi.
An Jingzhi's identity this time is the money-grubber Lao Deng.
When he was young, he asked his parents for money. When he got older, even if his father had a pension of 3,000 yuan, he would still be driven out to set up a stall.
As for his son, since his wife was still alive at that time, he went to college.
But it is obvious that his son An Hongwei is just an ordinary person, which makes the money-grubbing Lao Deng very dissatisfied.
He couldn't bear to see anyone more idle than him, so he even found a summer job for An Xiaotao during his summer vacation and sent him out.
In short, everyone has to make money for him, and he is the only one who can sit idle.
The original owner had this idea when his grandson was in junior high school, but the other party was too young at the time, and he didn't dare let An Xiaotao do it even if he found a summer worker.
After finally going to high school, I grew a lot taller, almost as tall as an adult. Some people turned a blind eye and agreed that it was just a short-term job.
An Xiaotao, a young man, had to squeeze in the kitchen to wash dishes, and he felt very aggrieved.
This time it involves his own son, so An Hongwei no longer plays dumb.
"Dad," he said with a sad face, "Xiao Tao is your grandson. How can you let him wash dishes in the kitchen of a restaurant when he still has to go to cram school?"
"Grandpa, I really don't want to go to the kitchen to be a dishwasher." An Xiaotao took the opportunity to say.
The people washing dishes were all middle-aged women, and he was just a young man stuck in there. It was so embarrassing.
Father An was also called back and sat on the sofa beside him. He looked at his grandson's family, then at An Jingzhi, and he stammered before finally speaking:
"Son, why don't you let Xiao Tao wash the dishes? If you're short of money, Dad can find you another odd job."
An Jingzhi imitated the original owner's personality, frowned, and said with regret: "You are really confused!"
Kang Shulan was almost laughing out of anger. Her father-in-law actually turned the tables on her.
"What do you know? Do you still think I'm really short of the money Xiao Tao gets from working for me?"
"How could I not know that Xiao Tao is my grandson? I'm his grandfather, how could I harm him?"
"I did this because Xiao Tao's grades have dropped!"
Kang Shulan said directly: "Dad, you let Xiao Tao work as a dishwasher, what does it have to do with his grades?"
"How can the knowledge learned in junior high be the same as that learned in high school? It's normal for his grades to drop, so I sent him to cram school during the summer vacation. But you, on the other hand, directly refunded the cram school money and even arranged a summer job for him when he came back. You can't expect his grades to improve by just letting him wash dishes, right?"
An Jingzhi said confidently, "Why not?"
"His poor grades, besides the increased difficulty of studying, doesn't it have anything to do with him?"
"If he hadn't been playing with his phone all day, would his grades have dropped so quickly?"
"I asked him to work as a dishwasher because I wanted him to know how hard it is to make money and how comfortable it is to study. Otherwise, he would think that studying is killing him. Only when he truly understands it can his grades improve."
Kang Shulan was a little mad, "Dad! You're just making up stories! Xiao Tao is such a big kid, what can't we talk about in person? Even if I have to work during the summer vacation, I can't let it interfere with his studies, and I certainly can't let him work as a dishwasher in the kitchen!"
An Jingzhi glanced at her and asked, "You still have occupational discrimination?"
"If this kid could make sense, would his grades drop so quickly?"
In fact, An Xiaotao's grades did decline a bit, but it wasn't that exaggerated. It was just a normal fluctuation. The original owner did this because he wanted to get the summer tutoring fee of more than 10,000 yuan.
An Xiaotao was sent to wash dishes because no one else was willing to hire him, and washing dishes in the kitchen was the only job where he wouldn't be seen by others, so the boss agreed to let him work there.
The original owner did this for the sake of a few small profits.
Kang Shulan was not wrong.
An Hongwei felt a little restless when he saw his father scolding his wife like that.
"Dad, Shulan is right. Even if we want Xiaotao to understand the importance of studying, there's no need to make him wash dishes in the kitchen. He hasn't even done it at home, so how can he do it at someone else's?"
An Jingzhi said: "It's because he doesn't do anything at home that I let him go out to do it."
"Every time he's asked to wash the dishes, he pushes them to his great-grandfather. His great-grandfather has to cook and wash the dishes at the same time. Is that reasonable?"
An Xiaotao felt aggrieved. He was not unwilling to do housework, but every time he wanted to do it, his great-grandfather would snatch it away and not let him touch it at all.
"Grandpa, I'm not unwilling to do housework."
Father An tried to smooth things over, "Son, I think Xiao Tao should spend more time studying. I had nothing better to do anyway, so I did it."
"Dad! I told you not to spoil the children like this. Look at Hongwei, he has become such a loser because of you. If you spoil Xiaotao again, he will be doomed." An Jingzhi said.
An Hongwei: If his memory is not confused, the person his grandfather spoiled the most should be his father, right?
An Hongwei admits that he is just an ordinary person, but he is not a loser. Most people are just ordinary people.
