I was so pissed when my house Maid, Sri.
As I blogged before I don't want like calling Maid, Maid.
So I shall type by her name, Sri. 35 minutes ago, she was telling my Mum she wants to go down as her friend from Tampines came to Bedok.
If I'm not wrong, I think her friend is married to the Owner here. If not why would she have so much freedom?
I know some Maids have many freedom but not many of them.
My Mum let her go down as sometimes need to give her some freedom, Mum gave her 10 minutes.
As some Maids will keep hatred in heart and bully the person she is taking care of. It's true.
She went down 25 minutes. Never mind, we let her off this time. Gave her one chance.
Her friend intelligent, brought Sri to Coffee shop and treated us to Tea.
Well, my Mum was saying 'Not sure if they got add ingredients'.
I answered 'Don't think so much'.
Super intelligent of them. Very.
However, the tea taste quite nice.
My Grandma super adorable.
I told her 'The Maid clever, she went down find her friend for a very long time
(I address her as 'Maid' in front of Grandma as Grandma don't know how to pronounce 'Sri' and don't understand 'Sri' this name.)
She replied 'Let her go down lor'.
I replied 'NO, cannot let her go down so long, later she don't listen to us'.
She replied 'If she don't listen, sack her. She is here to take care of me'.
SO CLEVER AND ADORABLE OF MY CUTE GRANDMA.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
We're not bullies. So we didn't reprimand her for going out 25 minutes when Mum said 10 minutes.
But Mum told her not every time can go out for so long.
Let her happy awhile also good. She's also a human being.
Who likes to be Maid? Nobody has the choice. But if no Maid, who take care of the needy or the house?
When some people is to busy to clean the house and to take care of old folks/babies/anyone.
Also, I told Grandma to say to me: 我愛你。
She really said it. Super cute of her to say it in chinese. Made me so happy.
Hainanese 'I love you' is quite similar to Chinese 'I love you'. Only the 'I' and the 'You' pronunciation different.
