Chapter 823: What should the old man do?
After the old lady's funeral was completed, the brothers and sisters of the Li family sat together to discuss what to do next.
Now that the old lady in the family is gone, there is only one old man who is paralyzed, and they have a few brothers and sisters, and they must negotiate a charter.
Of course, there are only Li Hongxing, Li Hongjun and Li Xianglian in the house now, Li Hongqi has not come out yet, and Zheng Huilan in the house said that she would not come over on the grounds of fear, and they did not say anything.
Then there is Li Xianghe, after Shen Yunfang received the letter that the old lady was gone, she went directly to inform Li Xianghe. At that time, Li Xianghe was stunned for a while before she came to her senses, and then left in a panic. Shen Yunfang asked her a lot at the time, if she wanted to help her buy tickets together, but people said that the children in the family were too young to do without people, so they wouldn't go back, and her mother would definitely not blame her. So Li Xianghe, the little daughter of the Li family, was not present.
"Hmph, what else to discuss, when the family was separated, it was said that the two old ones had lived with Li Hongqi, and it was his business to live, old age, sickness and death, and now that he is gone, the old lady is gone, let's open this big circle, but he is cheap. Wang Dan chattered a little angrily.
"Okay, what's the use of you still saying that, isn't the red flag not at home? Li Hongxing's mouth is full of blisters, these days the hospital at home is busy, and the old men in their thirties are stunned to look like people in their forties and fifties.
"What's wrong with Li Hongqi not at home, isn't his daughter-in-law at home, what's the matter, when there is no place to live, they are husband and wife, they can go home and occupy the house, she is nothing when she should contribute, why are all the good things in the world occupied by Li Hongqi's family. Wang Dan was also unconvinced.
From the old lady is gone, to yesterday's burial, their families can be said to be busy flying, as a result, the mother and daughter of the Zheng family shrank into the house, don't care about anything, don't do anything, even if you are an outsider, you are also borrowed to live at home, the main family has something to do with your guests, should you reach out to see where you can do help, they are good, one hand is not stretched, she called a few times, but people are still very reasonable to say that they are afraid and dare not go out. It's really interesting, there is a dead man parked in the house, who is not afraid, why are you women, can you tell me not to make people angry.
Li Hongxing was clumsy, and his daughter-in-law was blocked by his daughter-in-law in a few words, although he said that he was his daughter-in-law, but in his heart he agreed.
"Big brother, what my sister-in-law said is right, these days, I have really worked hard sister-in-law. Li Hongjun said a few words to ease the atmosphere, it is impossible for the eldest brother and sister-in-law to quarrel at this time.
When Wang Dan heard Li Hongjun say this, the anger in his heart calmed down, "What's hard, if you want to talk about hard work, none of us are lazy, everyone is working hard." I won't talk about the eldest sister and brother-in-law, even Yun Fang has been busy working everywhere without touching the ground these days. ”
"I don't have anything, it's the last time anyway. Shen Yunfang said very bluntly, if it weren't for the fact that the old lady was gone, she wouldn't have been able to do so hard these days.
"We've all been working hard these days. Now that my mother is in the ground, we don't have to worry about it, but my father is still lying in the hospital, so we can't ignore it. Li Hongjun provoked this conversation again.
In the house, Shen Yunfang, as her daughter-in-law, she didn't want to speak, Li Xianglian and her family were honest people, let them work, but it was not okay to take ideas, so they didn't speak. And the old man, Li Hongxing can't say anything, Wang Dan is still afraid of Li Hongjun and his family, even if he has any thoughts in his heart, he doesn't dare to say it arrogantly, so Li Hongjun is the only one who can mention this topic.
Li Hongjun saw that his sister-in-law was about to speak again, and hurriedly continued, "Although it was said that the old man would be taken care of by the third child when the family was separated, but now that the third child is not here, the third daughter-in-law is not a problem, and we can't watch the old man have no one to take care of him." ”
Wang Dan closed his mouth when he heard him say this.
The room was quiet again, and after a while, the eldest brother-in-law Liu Jianjun saw that no one was talking, so he asked: "Red Army, what do you think, just say it." ”
"I thought, we can't control other people's unfilial piety, but we have to be worthy of our conscience. Although the problem of pension for the elderly has been mentioned when the family was separated, but now the elderly have no one to take care of, and we can't watch it. I have to take care of my dad before the third child goes home. Let's not do anything else, it's good that my dad raised a few of us to adulthood, didn't he? Li Hongjun said.
"Yes, the Red Army is right, let's not care about the previous ones, the people are gone, and they are saying that they are useless. Now that a father is still alive, we as children can't watch our father have no one to serve. We all have children, so we should set an example for our children. Li Xianglian spoke.
Li Hongxing looked at his daughter-in-law and nodded firmly.
Li Hongjun saw that his brother and sister agreed, and then he continued: "Since everyone agrees, let's discuss what to do about this matter." Our father's current situation, in the future, there will definitely be someone to serve us, the eldest brother can serve our father, the eldest sister can't be counted, she is a married girl, just come over and help when you have time. ”
Li Hongxing nodded, where can I let my daughter come over to serve my father if I have a son.
Li Xianglian didn't say anything, it's not that she is not filial, but her home is far away, she can't run to Taoshu Village every day to serve the old man, take her father to her house, and the younger brothers will definitely not agree, so she can only come over to help serve for a few days when she is free in the future, as the second brother said.
Li Hongjun saw that his eldest brother and sister-in-law agreed, and then discussed how to take care of the elderly.
Two families must not be able to take care of the elderly at the same time, so one family will contribute money and one effort.
Whoever lives in the elderly's house is responsible for serving the elderly's daily life. The other family paid for twenty-five yuan a month.
Li Hongxing didn't dare to call the shots, and looked at his daughter-in-law vigorously.
Wang Dan frowned, weighing in his heart that choice was best for his family.
Thinking of having to serve her father-in-law who was paralyzed in bed to and pee, she couldn't respond, a thousand unwillingly. But if she chooses to pay twenty-five yuan a month, she will feel worried, her family is all digging in the soil, and it would be good to be able to pay three heads and five hundred a year, and let her take out twenty-five yuan a month, would it be the same as cutting her flesh with a knife, that is ten thousand unwilling.
Measured to measure, she can only choose to serve the elderly.
"Cut, what else to choose, my family is not as rich as my second brother's family, we are old farmers, guarding a few acres of land, where to get more than 20 yuan a month." Besides, the second brother, you are a soldier, and you are not at home at every turn, so it is clear that you can't take care of the elderly, do you still need to choose? There was a lot of resentment in her words.
Old man Li is a father-in-law and a man, he is old, but it is his son who cleans up his feces and urine, and his daughter-in-law is at most to wash him. Wang Dan felt that Li Hongjun was like this, saying that he was serving the old man, but he simply talked about it, and he couldn't achieve it at all. That's why the pension money is raised, which is to embarrass her, so that she can't take care of the elderly if she wants to.
