I often hear people around me say, "It's harder to find a good housekeeping aunt now than to find a good husband." So, when my husband and I planned to find a home aunt for our 92- and 87-year-old mother-in-law, we were fully prepared.
We truthfully filed a record with an intermediary company in Wuhan, Hubei Province, and also explained our requirements for a housekeeping aunt. The intermediary company was very fast, and the next morning there was a 70-year-old housekeeping aunt stationed, but I didn't expect that my husband and I didn't even see this aunt's face, and the aunt flashed. According to the mother-in-law's description: the aunt entered the door and saw the 92-year-old father-in-law walking trembling, she even said that she could not take care of it, and after eating the lunch made by the mother-in-law, she had to leave, and the mother-in-law repeatedly kept it, and the aunt still did not wait for me and my husband to leave after work. The first aunt failed miserably.
The second aunt I personally went to the intermediary company to get the mother-in-law's family, the first side felt good, the aunt's performance after entering the door made the mother-in-law also very satisfied. As a result, on the third day, when we were preparing to sign a contract with the intermediary company, my aunt suddenly told the intermediary company that she was not doing it in our house, because her father-in-law had to get up three or four times a night, and she couldn't sleep well. My husband and I were surprised, what is the reason for this? The aunt who said good to live at home is mainly to take care of the father-in-law, and the mother-in-law does not like to fake hands with others, and can do anything by herself. We settled this aunt's money with the intermediary company and pleaded with the intermediary company to continue to find the right aunt. Unexpectedly, the aunt called my mother-in-law and said that she wanted to continue to do it, but avoided the intermediary company to sign a contract with her privately, so that she did not have to pay management fees to the intermediary company, and we could also save an intermediary fee. My husband and I listened to the resolute opposition, thinking that this aunt was too cunning and untrustworthy.
The intermediary company quickly stationed a third aunt - Aunt Zhang, very coincidentally, this Aunt Zhang and I were a year, two months younger than me, I liked Aunt Zhang at a glance. Aunt Zhang has a particularly cheerful and optimistic personality, speaks roughly and atmospherically, does not twist at all, and her hands and feet are particularly sharp. She laughed and told us that the reasons for her dismissal were because she was too good to eat and wanted us to be prepared. Are there any people who have been dismissed for this reason? Grandpa Yuan has long let us Chinese eat enough, what a big deal, my husband and I don't think so. The next day, I heard my mother-in-law say that Aunt Zhang could indeed eat, and that she had two large bowls of rice scrambled with three eggs for breakfast. My husband and I laughed, and it was not a valuable thing, and I told my mother-in-law not to treat my aunt badly at eating. Afraid that my mother-in-law would not be willing, my husband and I bought meat, ribs, and fish on the weekend and stuffed them with double-door refrigerators, and ordered 50 pounds of rice and 100 eggs online. Usually, the two old people eat very little, and 10 pounds of rice are always eaten until the long worms are not eaten.
Seeing that my in-laws were very satisfied with Aunt Zhang, my husband and I quickly signed a contract with the intermediary company. I thought that the dust had settled on this matter, and my husband and I could finally work with peace of mind. As a result, when I came home in the evening and had not eaten dinner, I was called by my mother-in-law in a hurry (for convenience, my in-laws and we lived in a neighborhood). Outside the door, I heard the angry voice of my mother-in-law, shouting to sue the intermediary company. My husband and I are confused, this contract has been signed for less than a week, what is the trouble? After listening to the reason, my husband and I are also very angry, but we are also very fortunate, be kind to people, treat people with sincerity, and be effective in all parts of the world.
It turned out that the intermediary company had received another commission, an old lady with a broken leg, who was not satisfied with Aunt Li stationed by the intermediary company, and Aunt Zhang was the most satisfied aunt of the employer, so she wanted Aunt Zhang and Aunt Li to exchange, so that she could kill two birds with one stone. Aunt Zhang was very embarrassed, and the company taught Aunt Zhang to lie: "Just say that there is an emergency in the family and cannot continue to do it." In this way, the company can naturally send Aunt Li over. And Aunt Zhang was grateful for our kindness to her, for treating her equally, and did not want to deceive us and told us the truth.
While we are surprised by the "stealing the day" of the intermediary company, we also deeply sigh: the nanny is also a person, and it also needs to be respected, as long as we treat people with sincerity, finding a good nanny is not as difficult as imagined.
