"You've lived with me for so many years, and we've long treated you like family. You can rest assured, we will give you a pension! Su Yu's wife Chu Qing said.
"Yes, Aunt Fang, I have long regarded you as my own mother, you can stay in our house, and I will have two mothers in the future." Daughter Su Huining said naughtily.
Hearing this, the woman burst into tears and said excitedly, "Thank you, madam, thank you......"
Who is this woman? Why did Su Yu's family insist on keeping her?
An unexpected encounter
She is a nanny named Fang Zhongyi, a name that represents tenacity and loyalty.
She was born in an inconspicuous small county in Anhui Province, and worked diligently in the famous general Su Yu's family for more than 20 years, dedicating her youth and enthusiasm.
Fang Zhongyi is a rural woman born into a poor family with many brothers and sisters.
In those days, parents did not have any access to education, and naturally they could not provide them with more learning opportunities.
They have a very hard time, and they often worry about whether they will have the last meal or not.
But from an early age, Fang Zhongyi showed a maturity and sense of responsibility that surpassed her peers, and as a child, she helped her parents with heavy farm work at home.
Take every opportunity to go to a nearby village to do odd jobs for others and earn some income to ease the burden on the family.
But how can her little income be enough to support the family? Under the pressure of survival, the young Fang Zhongyi had to make a difficult decision: leave his hometown and go out to make a living.
Perhaps because of God's favor, by chance, she learned that the commander of the military region in Wuhu, Anhui Province, was recruiting a nanny.
This news was like a fire in winter, igniting a glimmer of hope in her heart. She thought to herself: If she goes to work at the commander's house, I believe that the treatment will not be too bad.
She didn't hesitate to sign up. But how can the nanny of the commander of the military district be so easy to become.
If you want to enter the home of the commander of the military region, the nanny has to go through layers of screening.
Fortunately, Fang Zhongyi has been accustomed to working since he was a child, his hands and feet are very sharp, and he is unambiguous in his work.
What others take an hour or two to complete, she can do in less than an hour, and the quality of the work is impressive.
She is even more of a good dish for stir-frying. After a series of rigorous selections, she stood out from the crowd and got the job.
Fang Zhongyi worked meticulously and thoughtfully in the commander's home, and she won the respect of the commander's family with her serious and diligent work attitude and meticulous spirit.
As time passed, Fang Zhongyi's reputation gradually spread, and everyone who heard her name praised her.
Until one day, Su Yu came to the commander's house, and the two parents chatted and gossiped briefly.
At this time, Su Yu said: "Our family is very good now, but there is a lack of a nanny, I don't know if you have the right person to recommend it to me?" ”
Speaking of this, the old commander thought for a while and said, "I happen to have a nanny at home, you will definitely be satisfied." As he spoke, he pointed to Fang Zhongyi, who was pouring tea for the two of them.
The commander said: "This nanny has been working in our house for a while, and I feel very good. It just so happens that my family is small and I don't need a babysitter very much, so I might as well let her go to you, so that she can have an errand. ”
So, on the recommendation of the commander, Fang Zhongyi embarked on the road to Su Yu's house to seek a job.
The nanny who went to Su Yu's house also had to go through layers of screening, and Fang Zhongyi had rich experience and was naturally successfully selected.
The story of Fang Zhongyi and General Su Yu's family began from here.
Dutiful care
At first, Fang Zhongyi didn't know that this was Su Yu's family.
As soon as she entered the door, she was greeted by an unpretentious atmosphere.
Fang Zhongyi thought: This must also be a big family.
She just wanted to open her mouth to ask the staff, but the staff told her in very serious words: "When you come here, do your part, don't ask about things you shouldn't ask, and don't ask about things you shouldn't ask." ”
These words may also be able to scare her, she is from the countryside, she has never seen the outside world, she believes whatever these people say.
Hearing this, she couldn't help but verify her conjecture even more, this is definitely a big family.
Fang Zhongyi was still a little apprehensive in his heart.
After actually joining the company, I was very serious about my work.
She knows that she has the responsibility of taking care of a large family, and she takes care of Su Yu's family with all her heart, ensuring that their life and work are carried out normally, and reducing their worries.
Fang Zhongyi is very helpful, always puts the needs of his family first, and is also very patient and attentive to his family.
After Su Yu's daughter was born, Fang Zhongyi put all his energy into taking care of his little daughter.
From Su Huining's toddler to her adulthood, for more than 20 years, she has always been accompanied by Fang Zhongyi.
Fang Zhongyi's dedication is not only reflected in the material level, but more importantly, in the spiritual level.
She observes every detail with her heart and treats her employer's family members with love and patience, bringing them warmth and comfort.
She became an indispensable member of Su Yu's family and established a deep relationship with them.
In addition, the challenges and pressures faced by nannies in their work cannot be ignored. She needs to adapt to the family's eating habits and know their taboos in order to deal with various emergencies.
Even take responsibility for educating children to a certain extent. In this process, she needs to have a high level of professionalism and responsibility.
Fang Zhongyi was very loyal to Su Yu's family, but she never knew that she was working in Su Yu's family.
During the revolutionary war years at that time, Fang Zhongyi always silently supported Su Yu's family behind her back, and she also won the trust of General Su Yu's family.
During the arduous revolutionary years, Fang Zhongyi was willing to make efforts and sacrifices for the revolutionary cause and family happiness, which is worthy of admiration.
Even in the face of many difficulties and dangers, she did not give up on Su Yu's family.
As a nanny, she gets along very well with the family and creates a warm family environment for them.
The surprise of learning the identity
Until one day, when Fang Zhongyi was cooking in the kitchen, he heard two cooks next to him muttering and discussing something.
They were very quiet at first, but suddenly someone called out General Su Yu's name in surprise.
Fang Zhongyi learned from them that he had come to General Su Yu's house.
For a moment, her mood was like a rough sea, complicated and difficult to calm down.
Her eyes were wide open, her mouth slightly open, and she couldn't believe that she had spent so much time with such a legend.
Her heart was shocked, and then she fell into deep thought.
She never dared to believe that the famous General Su Yu could be such a kind person.
Because when Fang Zhongyi came to Su Yu's house to work for the first time, Su Yu's family came out to greet her in person and asked someone to prepare a bowl of beef noodles for her.
But Fang Zhongyi never eats beef, and when Su Yu heard it, he immediately asked people to make a new bowl of Yangchun noodles, and Fang Zhongyi was very moved by this.
She only knew that this family was very kind, but she didn't know that this was actually the home of a great general who had been galloping on the battlefield for many years.
Later, Fang Zhongyi was very careful at work, for fear that he would not take good care of Su Yu. But Su Yu's family never blamed her.
When eating, they are not picky eaters, they often eat whatever Fang Zhongyi does, and they don't forget to praise after eating: "The food you cook is so delicious, you see I have eaten two bowls of rice." ”
Fang Zhongyi was also very happy when he heard the praise.
Over time, a deep friendship was gradually established between them.
After learning Su Yu's identity, Fang Zhongyi took care of him dutifully. But occasionally I feel some tension and stress.
She would repeatedly think about whether she would be able to do the job related to General Su Yu, and worry about whether she would be able to live up to the general's expectations.
This tension hung over her like a dark cloud, making her hesitate and confused from time to time, but fortunately, General Su Yu has always trusted her very much.
As time passed, Fang Zhongyi also calmed down and was proud of being the nanny of the Su Yu family.
The understanding between them is also gradually deepening, and Fang Zhongyi's respect for General Su Yu in his heart is increasing day by day. She began to take the initiative to learn about the general's military achievements and efforts for the country.
Whenever the general's name was mentioned, her eyes sparkled with pride, admiration, and admiration.
She began to follow the example of the general, and secretly made up her mind to do her part for the general. Strive to improve their own quality and ability, and hope to inherit the spirit and will of the general.
Over time, General Su Yu also treated her like family.
Sometimes when the family had dinner at night, Su Yu would also ask Fang Zhongyi to eat with them. In front of Fang Zhongyi, Su Yu has never had a fight, and Su Yu's daughter Su Huining treats her as her own mother.
Su Yu and his wife rarely went home because of work, and Su Huining followed Fang Zhongyi when he was very young.
Su Huining's lack of maternal love, Fang Zhongyi compensated her in his own way, accompanied her to grow up, and took care of her food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Su Huining also likes this kind nanny very much, and often shows off: "I am a person with two mothers. ”
When Fang Zhongyi's family was in trouble and faced with pressure, Fang Zhongyi did not fight alone. Su Yu's wife will take the initiative to communicate with her and share her thoughts and feelings with each other.
With Su Yu's care and help, Fang Zhongyi felt warmth and strength, and his psychological pressure was effectively relieved.
Su Yu will never sit idly by, he will do his best to help Fang Zhongyi's family. But Fang Zhongyi's nanny herself is also a strong person and always maintains an optimistic attitude.
She believes in her ability to overcome difficulties and believes that the future will be better.
This optimism made her more calm and confident in the face of pressure, and she eventually succeeded in overcoming the psychological barrier.
Su Yu also admires her spirit.
Although Fang Zhongyi and Su Yu's family are not related by blood, the 20-year companionship has long broken the barriers between them, and it is better to be a relative than a relative.
Su Yu was still thinking about Fang Zhongyi until his later years, and his biggest regret before dying was that he couldn't taste the dishes cooked by Fang Zhongyi.
