Chapter 97: Uncle's sad history

My cousin got married and found a colleague who worked in an electronics factory. The marriage is not bad, and within two years, they gave birth to a little granddaughter, which added a lot of happiness.

But there is a problem, the uncle is very distressed, the cousin's financial power is in the hands of the cousin. The sister-in-law was unwilling to pay for the loan, so she had to be borne by her uncle and aunt. Eating together, the daily food expenses are mainly based on them, so that the two have no savings in their hands.

As the granddaughter grew up, housing became a problem. Because she is a girl, she can no longer live with her parents, and it is not suitable to live with her grandparents, so her granddaughter lives in the living room.

After a long time, my sister-in-law had an opinion. finally spoke out and asked my uncle and aunt to rent a house. If you rent a house, you must pay another rent, and my uncle and aunt put the difficulties on the table, and it is okay to rent a house, and the bank loan will be repaid by the cousins.

The sister-in-law was unhappy, so she went back to her parents' house in anger and stayed for a month. My cousin called twice, but they didn't come back, saying that she wouldn't come home if her uncle and aunt lived in the house, so you can live as a family, this place doesn't belong to her.

The cousin was afraid of his wife and couldn't convince his cousin-in-law, so he had to do the work of his uncle and aunt.

In order to take care of the overall situation, the uncle and aunt didn't want the young couple to have a conflict, so they gritted their teeth and moved out, rented a one-bedroom old house, and just made do with it.

The mortgage is finally paid off. My uncle and aunt thought it would be easier, but when they got older, the garment factory didn't want to use them for odd jobs anymore and lost their jobs. Because they are temporary workers, they don't have pension insurance, and they have no income when they lose their jobs.

My cousin often visits them, but my cousin can't be the master, the salary is in the hands of my cousin, and my cousin is just a person, so I can't help my parents with money. The reason for the sister-in-law is that her daughter wants to go to college, and she needs a lot of expenses, so she has to save money for the child to go to school.

Uncle and aunt couldn't sit and eat, and my uncle found a temporary job as a janitor in the community, and the income was not much, but he still had an income. My aunt went to pick up garbage and earned dozens of dollars a day.

The uncle may have been dismissed again because he looked older. My aunt's health is not very good, and the two of them can barely survive on the little money they earn from picking up garbage.

Considering that he will eventually go home in the future, he has not seen his father for so many years, and he will come back when he dies, so he really can't say anything, so he came back to contact his father.

Speaking of which, my uncle also apologized to my father and me for the cold attitude he showed when he sold the two thatched houses.

Listening to the miserable life experiences of my uncles and aunts, I forgive them all for their inappropriate practices in the past.

That's when I had a new idea. Since my uncle and aunt are not doing well in the provincial capital, it is better to go back to my hometown. There is no problem with accommodation in the spacious new house, and it is not a problem for my family's current living conditions to support the two of them, since my cousin and sister-in-law don't want to take care of them, I will take care of them.

When I made this suggestion, tears gleamed again in the old eyes of my uncle and aunt, and they agreed. The father also had no opinion. Now it's up to the mother, and if the mother doesn't object, they come back.

I patted my chest and took on the job of convincing my mother. I went to the back of the room to find my mother, and told her about my uncle and aunt's unhappiness and my plans.

The mother disagreed at first. said that they had separated for a long time, and it had nothing to do with each other to live a good life. Now they can't live anymore, and it's not that they don't have sons, and we have no obligation to take care of them.

Seeing my mother's resolute attitude, I immediately relented after giving him a reason.

"I'm with that girl in the city right now, and I'm on the spot. People don't have much to say about our family's economic conditions, and they don't have much opinion of me. Now the focus of the investigation is the character of our family. I have only one brother, and I have no brothers and sisters, so even if I don't live under the same roof with my in-laws in the future, I will have to take care of it. There's no escaping this. The character, temperament, and character measurement of the in-laws are the focus of people's investigation. If you are too stingy, I am afraid that this marriage will not be successful. ”

My marriage has become a disease in my mother's heart. For her, everything has to make way for my marriage, even if she is wronged. I made up such a set of reasons, and she believed it.

"Originally, apart from the allocation of the house, there was no other conflict with your uncle and aunt. Besides, it's long gone, so it's not a matter at all. Now that our family's conditions are good, they want to take refuge in your father's brother, I don't have any opinion. We can't let others say anything to us because of this, and we can't affect your marriage. ”

Seeing that my mother had agreed, I happily wanted to go back and tell my uncle and aunt.

Mother grabbed me.

"Is what you said true? Does that girl really mean to you? ”

"Intentionally! Intentionally! It's up to you and your dad to behave. ”

I hurried to cope and went home.

When he heard that his mother agreed, his father was happy, and his uncle and aunt were even more happy, and immediately said that he would return to the provincial capital tomorrow. I went back to the house, disposed of the broken furniture and came back.

My father told them to stay for two days and then go back to do these things, which was not a big deal.

My aunt said that it was the end of the month, and if I didn't check out, it would involve the next month's rent, so it was better to go back early to save the money in vain.

My father agreed.

Mother came into the house.

Uncles and aunts naturally knew that their mother had forgiven them, and they said endless words of gratitude.

"We can't just be polite here, it's time to cook and eat, Xiaoyu is very busy, and he has to go back to the county seat after eating."

In a word, everyone is happy. So, my mother and aunt went to the kitchen to cook, and my father took my uncle to the back of the house for a walk to see the changes in the mountains, and I took advantage of the fact that no one came to pick vegetables and enter the space to transplant the seedlings.

Today's lunch was hearty. I found out that my aunt is also a good cook, and her cooking skills are not under my mother's. Maybe I ate my aunt's cooking when I was a child, but I didn't have the slightest impression.

The uncle and father and brother drank some wine, and the atmosphere was good.

After lunch, I went back to the county seat.

My uncle and aunt returned to the provincial capital the next day, and only a week later, and it happened to be another Saturday, and I went to the village station to pick them up and take them home.

This time the uncle and aunt really didn't leave. They greeted their cousin. The cousin only made a verbal retention, but he had no choice but to let his uncle and aunt go back to his hometown and thank his uncle and aunt for taking him in.

I scoffed at it.

This time the uncle and aunt came back and asked a new question.

The half acre of land in the greenhouse has half of them, they want to plant some land, and when they see that their parents have income from growing vegetables, they also plan to plant, in order not to rob their parents of business, they plan to go to the township to set up a stall.

Since people have come to my house, how can I not care, they are older than my parents, and I don't want them to work so hard.

I let my uncle and aunt run the greenhouse together with my parents, and the income was split in half, which I thought was fair.

Father has no opinion.

The mother has an opinion.
