96-year-old man's handwritten letter makes his new daughter-in-law cry

"My grandfather folded an envelope himself to send his sister-in-law money to celebrate her baby's birth, 50 million VND", the post and the image of the envelope have been widely shared by netizens in recent days.

The most noticeable thing was the handwritten message on the envelope: "I congratulate Hai and Nhu on having a safe delivery. I have a gift for you two of 50 million, please accept it for me."

The old man's sincere feelings for his children and grandchildren are clearly shown through each neat stroke of his handwriting. The story was widely shared and moved many people.

According to research, the old man in the story is Mr. Vo Duy The (96 years old, Ho Chi Minh City). The person who posted the article is Vo Van Anh, his grandson, and the granddaughter-in-law who received the precious gift is Pham Thi Huynh Nhu (28 years old, Ho Chi Minh City).

Huynh Nhu has been married to Mr. The for 2 years. After getting married, she and her husband lived with her grandfather and her husband's parents for about 2 months, then moved out to live separately. However, the couple still often went back to their parents' house to eat and live.

Huynh Nhu gave birth on October 10. On October 22, Mrs. The called her husband over and handed him an envelope containing 13 million VND, along with a message. This was a gift for her daughter-in-law, congratulating her on the birth of her great-grandchild.

Before that, as soon as he learned that Huynh Nhu was pregnant with a baby girl, he sent an envelope containing 37 million VND. In total, Nhu and her mother received 50 million VND from Mr. The.

“He explained on the envelope that it was the first time, the second time,... but in fact, the numbers were a bit confusing. In total, he gave me and my mother 50 million VND. When I held the envelope and looked at his handwriting, I burst into tears. I felt the great love he had for our small family,” Nhu shared.

Both times, Nhu and her husband tried to refuse their grandfather's valuable gift, hoping he would keep the money for his old age. However, Mr. The asked his grandchildren to accept it because it was his love and care for them.

“When he first found out I was pregnant, he gathered all his savings to give to me. When my husband and I refused, he said we had to accept it so we could have money to take care of the baby,” Nhu said.

Mr. The has 4 children (3 girls, 1 boy) and currently lives with his son's family, Huynh Nhu's parents-in-law.

Duy Hai (29 years old) - Nhu's husband has lived with his grandfather since he was a child, and has been taken care of by his grandfather, so he is somewhat attached to him and is loved by him more. When all family members knew that Mr. The gave gifts to Huynh Nhu - Duy Hai, they were all happy to support him.

From the moment she became a daughter-in-law, Nhu felt the love her husband's family had for her. Nhu's parents-in-law were modern, understanding, and always created conditions for their children to live comfortably and happily.

Mr. The often told his daughter-in-law: "Women must be beautiful and healthy. No matter how busy you are, you must take care of your health."

Knowing that his granddaughter-in-law was pregnant, he paid her even more special attention. Grandfather The told Huynh Nhu: “The door of birth is the door of death, you must try to rest and eat well to have the health to give birth and take care of your children.”

“Every time I clean or do something, he yells, ‘Why don’t you go take a rest, why are you always working?’ He loves his children and grandchildren very much,” Nhu shared.

Huynh Nhu added that at the age of 96, Mr. The is still healthy, clear-headed, proficient in using electronic devices, often surfing Facebook, and watching YouTube for entertainment.

With electronic devices in the house, the children only need to instruct him once and he will know how to use them. He takes the initiative in all his personal activities, without having his children serve him.

For things like medicine, nutritional foods, etc., he often tells his children and grandchildren to read the instructions carefully before using them.

“My grandfather especially loves poetry. Every time I come over, he reads poetry and asks me to write it down for him so he can read it again later.

Honestly, I feel very lucky to be his grandchild and to be the daughter-in-law in such a loving family," Nhu confided.
