A small Chinese New Year's Eve dinner problem made an old leader in his 60s lose sleep for a few days, do you have any good suggestions?
In the past two days, I saw that our old leader was absent-minded at work, and his mental state was relatively poor, and when I listened to him answer **, I felt that his tone was more helpless and tired. At first, I thought it was going to be a vacation, so he didn't have the heart to go to work.
Later, I learned that his eldest son went to his house for dinner two days ago, and after the meal, his wife proposed that there would be no more family dinners on Chinese New Year's Eve this year, because they were old, it was too tiring to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and there was no one to help cook together, and the busy day made them exhausted at night.
Before his wife could finish speaking, he felt his son not very happy and showed a sense of loss on his face. His son was incomprehensible and questioned why he broke the tradition of Chinese New Year's Eve gatherings and dinners.
Faced with the confusion of his eldest son, his wife added: "Your mother is no longer able to do it, so she will change her way this year and go to your house for dinner, and next year it will be your brother's turn." Despite this, his son was still not very happy and was clearly not very happy with the decision.
After his son returned, the old leader felt heavy. I feel that my sons don't seem to have grown up yet, and they still expect their parents to be able to control everything like they did when they were young, but they don't realize that their parents' energy is not as good as before, after all, the years are not forgiving, and their parents have begun to be a little powerless. It's time to start a new traditional way of taking turns in the children's homes for Chinese New Year's Eve, which also allows them to experience the taste of the main things of extended family life.
Although it was just a matter of dinner, it made our leaders feel extremely entangled, and we have been thinking about this matter for the past two days, how to make everyone satisfied?
Is it a question of fairness or is there no money in your pocket? I wonder what young people think nowadays? Is this a problem of self-education? He felt that it was really difficult to be an old man.
