nanny

Hua Sao is a laid-off worker who has been looking for a job, but jobs seem to avoid her like the plague. Just when she was about to lose hope, a friend named Huang Xiaoyun came running over and said, "Hua Sao, this time you've hit the jackpot. A big shot wants to hire you as a nanny."

Hua Sao curiously asked, "A big shot? You and I are like bamboo strips on a mat, not much different, how could you know a big shot?" Huang Xiaoyun chuckled and said, "Although I don't know him personally, I can always find a way to get in touch, right? My cousin's neighbor talked to him about your situation, and he became interested. He even said he would come to your house for a chat at three in the afternoon."

Hua Sao, eager to find work, naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity and quickly agreed.

At three in the afternoon, someone indeed came to visit Hua Sao's home. The visitor was dressed in a sharp suit, with shoes polished to a shine, and was holding a very beautiful pet dog, looking quite wealthy. He said his name was Duan Jianfei, and his mother had been paralyzed in bed for several years, unable to find a good nanny. He heard that Hua Sao had been taking care of her paralyzed mother-in-law for over six years without any complaints, so he came to invite Hua Sao to take care of his mother.

Hua Sao, upon hearing she would be taking care of another paralyzed elderly person, couldn't help but hesitate, as she had taken care of her mother-in-law for over six years, which was very hard work.

Seeing Hua Sao's silence, Duan Jianfei quickly said, "I'll pay you a monthly salary of a thousand yuan. You can live in our home, and if you rent out this house, you'll have an additional income. That way, your son's college expenses will be covered."

Hua Sao, hearing Duan Jianfei's reasoning and indeed needing the money, took down Duan Jianfei's address, agreeing to go to his house the next morning.

Just after Duan Jianfei left, Huang Xiaoyun came running over, relieved to see Hua Sao still there, and said, "Thank goodness, I almost let you fall for that guy's trick."

Hua Sao was startled: "What do you mean? What trick?"

"Ah, I made a mistake. He's not a big shot at all; he's just a nanny hired by a big shot, and for the big shot's dog!"

Hua Sao became more and more confused.

Huang Xiaoyun explained that she had just met an old friend on the road who talked about introducing Hua Sao as a nanny. It turned out that this friend lived in the same community as Duan Jianfei, even in the same building. The friend said that Duan Jianfei was by no means a big shot and had a very bad reputation. He didn't care for his mother who was ill and bedridden, and for the sake of good clothes and more money, he disregarded his status as a university graduate and actually became a nanny for a rich man's dog.

Hua Sao said, "But he is looking for a nanny for his mother, right?"

"Alas, such a person without any self-respect, how could he sincerely spend money to hire a nanny for his mother? He's just putting on a show. You must not go; otherwise, you might end up not getting a penny."

Hua Sao didn't expect Duan Jianfei to be such a person. After Huang Xiaoyun left, she called Duan Jianfei and said, "I'm sorry, I can't come to your house to be a nanny. You should look for someone else." Before Duan Jianfei could say anything, she hung up the phone.

Half an hour after the call, Hua Sao heard someone knocking on the door. When she opened it, Duan Jianfei was standing outside the security door, urgently saying, "Hua Sao, please open the security door and let me in to talk, okay?"

Hua Sao looked down on such a person and said, "We have nothing to talk about; you may leave." After saying this, she closed the door and ignored Duan Jianfei.

After dinner, Hua Sao cleaned up the house, picked up the garbage bag to take downstairs, and was startled when she opened the door: Duan Jianfei was still silently standing outside. Hua Sao, with a soft heart, hesitated and opened the door for Duan Jianfei, saying, "Why are you still here?"

Duan Jianfei sat down in the living room, silently took the tea offered by Hua Sao, and two lines of tears "whoosh" flowed down, startling Hua Sao, who quickly asked, "What's wrong with you? As a man, why are you crying?"

Duan Jianfei drank the tea in one gulp and said, "Hua Sao, you must have heard the gossip about me. I know many people talk behind my back. My mother has been paralyzed in bed for several years and really needs my care, but I've been a university graduate for several years and haven't found a job yet. Where would I get the money to treat my mom? How could I take good care of her? Later, a wealthy person knew that I studied animal husbandry and veterinary science at university, so he hired me to be a nanny for his pet dog, with a very good salary. Others think I do this demeaning job for good clothes and high pay, but actually, I do it to earn money to hire a good nanny for my mom! Hua Sao, I know you are a good person and an even better nanny. Please go and take care of my mom; I promise I will not treat you unfairly."

Hua Sao was moved to tears by Duan Jianfei's words, she nodded and said, "Okay, I will go to your house early tomorrow morning and take good care of your mom."
