The joyful and happy atmosphere is what we felt when visiting the three-generation family of Mr. Nguyen Ky Thai (born in 1935) and Mrs. Nguyen Thi Can (born in 1941) in Dong Trung village, Cam Binh commune (Cam Xuyen, Ha Tinh).
3 generation family of Mr. Thai - Mrs. Can.
Going back in time, Mr. Thai recalled: “In 1960, my wife and I got married and had 6 children (3 boys, 3 girls). From 1966 to 1970, I joined the army and participated in the resistance war against the US. My wife took care of the whole family by herself. Because I loved my wife, when I returned, I “rushed” into doing all kinds of jobs to support the family. We determined that to escape poverty, education must be the top priority.”
Therefore, although life is still full of hardships and difficulties, Mr. Thai and his wife still encourage each other to overcome difficulties every day. The most precious thing is that they still take care of their children's education, all 6 children can go to university and work in the fields of education, police, oil and gas.
Mr. Thai and Mrs. Can are always an example of love and sharing for their children and grandchildren to follow.
Currently, their 5 children live and work in the southern provinces. Mr. Thai and Mrs. Can are living with their 4th son's family, Mr. Nguyen Ky Phi (born in 1971) and Ms. Duong Thi Kim Dung (born in 1977) and 2 grandchildren, Nguyen Ky Duong Truong (born in 2001) and Nguyen Ky Bao An (born in 2009) in their hometown.
3 generations live together, despite the age gap, Mr. Thai's family always maintains harmony among members. Although there are many differences in the concepts and lifestyles of each generation, with sympathy, sharing, and understanding, family members are always harmonious and happy. Traditions and family rules are preserved and followed by members, so the whole family is happy, excited, and conscious of striving to rise up in society.
Although most of them live far away, every time there are holidays, Mr. Thai's children and grandchildren always arrange to return home, organize family reunion meals for the whole family to gather and share the joys and sorrows of life. The happiest thing for Mr. Thai and Mrs. Can is to live with their children and grandchildren, the members always love each other and are very harmonious when living under the same roof.
Mr. Phi and Ms. Dung always spend time taking care of their family, being filial to their parents, and raising their children to be good people.
Family is also the motivation for Phi and Dung to strive together in their work and follow their parents' example in raising their children. Phi shared: "My wife and I got married in 2000, we are both teachers, working in Gia Lai province. In 2005, we decided to return to our hometown to live with our parents because at that time, my siblings had grown up, had their own families and started their careers far away from home, only my grandparents were left in the countryside."
It is known that Mr. Phi is currently the Vice Principal of Cam Son Primary School, and Ms. Dung is a teacher at Cam Quang Primary School. Although their work is quite busy, they always take the initiative to arrange time to take care of their family, be filial to their parents, and raise their two children to be good people.
Ms. Dung always receives support and companionship from her parents-in-law and the whole family to complete all tasks.
Living under the roof of 3 generations, as a daughter-in-law, a wife, a mother, Ms. Dung always lives in harmony, teaches her children to study hard, be filial to their grandparents, and respect their elders. Ms. Dung shared: “In the relationship between husband and wife, we always respect, love and sympathize with each other, and share the responsibility of caring for, raising and educating our children. With our parents, my husband and I are always filial and respectful. For 23 years of being a daughter-in-law, my husband's parents consider me as their daughter in the family. They always help and support me so that I can both take care of the family and do well in social work.”
A happy, warm family is something that Mrs. Can is always proud of.
In modern life, the pace of life is becoming busier and more urgent, maintaining the "flame" of family happiness is not simple, especially for families with many generations living together. Therefore, empathy, understanding, and sharing are the secrets that help Mr. Thai and Mrs. Can's family always burn with love. Thanks to the harmony, empathy, and sharing among family members, the atmosphere in their family is always happy and full of laughter.
With a face always beaming with joy, Mrs. Can confided: “The happiness of my husband and I is the solidarity and love of our children and grandchildren. That is the blessing and consolation that parents receive in their old age. My husband and I do not wish for anything more, we only hope that our children and grandchildren will always uphold the family tradition and keep the “fire” of happiness alive.”
Following the example of their grandparents and parents, Truong and An always try to study and work hard.
Following the example of their grandparents and parents, Phi and Dung's two children are always obedient, diligent in studying, working, and being filial to their family. Although working in Da Nang, whenever Truong has time off, he gets on the bus back to his hometown to have meals with his family. Truong shared: "For me, no matter how stressful and difficult life is out there, when I return home, living in the arms of my grandparents and parents, all the "storms" stop behind the door."
The simple, rustic lifestyle and the love and connection from Mr. Thai's family members have helped the small house to always be filled with laughter. Hopefully, the feelings and love of Mr. Thai's family will be a beautiful story that conveys positive energy, spreading family values to the community and society.
