"Don't talk nonsense." Cao Shujie glared at his daughter.
Saying such words now in front of his father-in-law and mother-in-law makes the old man feel uncomfortable.
But who knew that as soon as he finished scolding his daughter, Mengmeng glanced at her father sideways: "Dad, I find that you are quite hypocritical now."
"You obviously don't think so, but you still have to say it like this, who are you pretending to show it to?" Mengmeng said straightforwardly.
Cheng Xiaolin couldn't help but laugh when she heard her daughter's comments.
Cao Shujie thought I was going to slap her. How many people would stop me today?
But Cheng Xiaolin pulled Mengmeng over first: "Mengmeng, don't talk nonsense, how could you say such a thing about my father?"
"Oh, then I won't say anything." Mengmeng became well-behaved again.
But when Li Xiaojuan and Cheng Rengui saw their granddaughter being wronged, they called her over again: "Mengmeng is right, don't listen to your parents' nonsense, and don't pay attention to your uncle in the future. He is only interested in money."
Already."
This is absolutely true.
It can also be seen how disappointed Li Xiaojuan and Cheng Rengui are with their son.
Previously, the son and his daughter-in-law thought that the money they needed to go out to start a cattle farm alone would be provided by their parents. That time, all the remaining money that the family could spare was given to their son as the start-up capital for the cattle farm.
The last time his son engaged in investment, they squandered all their own savings and owed a lot of foreign debt. That time, Li Xiaojuan and her wife also pooled money to wipe their son's butt and fill the hole.
Unexpectedly, this time the son and daughter-in-law came to try to steal money from the old couple.
The more she thought about it, the sadder she became, Li Xiaojuan also asked her daughter if they moved to Qingshi Town, where would it be inconvenient?
"Mom, what's so inconvenient about this? As long as you have money, it's convenient to live anywhere. But I think living in Chengjiapo is really inconvenient." Cheng Xiaolin said this.
"If you really want to go, I will find you a house when I get back. The prices there are really not high, some are less than 3,000 yuan per square meter, but the quality of the houses is better than those in the city. You ride a tricycle to Caojiazhuang during the day.
You can easily earn hundreds of dollars a day by selling some random things in tourist attractions, and you don’t have to endure the hardship like now.”
"Besides, you and my dad are both over 60 years old. What else are you thinking about? Are you going to take care of my brother until he is old? Or do you expect them to take care of you in old age?"
"Don't be ridiculous, they are like bears and you can't count on them!"
What Cheng Xiaolin said was heartbreaking, but this is reality.
Cheng Rengui and Li Xiaojuan both understand.
In fact, this is not the first time that I have quarreled with my son and daughter-in-law. This kind of thing can't be covered up. Many people in Chengjiapo know that their relationship with their son and daughter-in-law is a bit tense. They don't get along with each other, which is embarrassing.
Everyone in the village knew that the old couple had no longer wanted to stay in Chengjiapo.
But after leaving Chengjiapo, they didn't know where to go. If they wanted to go to their daughter's place, they were afraid of causing trouble to their daughter and son-in-law, and others would think they were relying on their daughter and son-in-law for their retirement.
However, they really haven't thought about it that way.
Cheng Rengui also asked a lot of questions about buying a house in Qingshi Town.
It seems that he is determined to leave Chengjiapo and live in Qingshi Town for a long time.
"Besides, Tiandong and Tianhong are both grown up, so we don't need to watch them. It's better to live in Qingshi Town." Cheng Rengui said.
Because of the quarrel, the atmosphere at home was not very good, but with Mengmeng and Cao Yirui talking and singing, and making faces from time to time, Li Xiaojuan and Cheng Rengui were amused.
In the evening, Li Xiaojuan called the restaurant in the town and asked them to deliver food. As for her son and daughter-in-law, they didn't come. Cheng Yunping called her and said that her second child, Tianhong, suddenly caught a cold and had to go to the hospital.
Cheng Yunping also posted a photo of a consultation in the hospital on WeChat Moments, along with a copy: "Take care of cows during the day and children at night. Who knows if I catch a cold, I will be exhausted."
Cheng Xiaolin sneered when she saw it. At this time, Cheng Xiaolin felt that her brother was really hypocritical and hopeless.
Why are you playing tricks on them?
Is there anything I can’t honestly say?
Does it have to be like this?
"Mom, you saw it, right?" Cheng Xiaolin didn't want to say anything.
Li Xiaojuan saw the photo in the circle of friends and said anxiously: "Tianhong may be really unwell."
"Mom, I'm not making any malicious speculations, it's mainly just a coincidence." Cheng Xiaolin said.
Cao Shujie didn't make any comment on this matter, but to be honest, he didn't like his brother-in-law either.
From the time the couple first left their children at home and went out to work to earn money, Cao Shujie felt that they were very irresponsible.
Of course, there are many frustrations and excusable circumstances.
The key point, as far as he knew, was that Cheng Yunping and Liu Yingying came back from abroad that year and didn't get a penny back. According to the information his wife later learned from her mother-in-law, the couple earned and spent as they pleased.
, eating, drinking and drinking are gone.
How can a person with such virtue be a good parent?
In the evening, Cao Shujie and his father-in-law Cheng Rengui had two drinks. Cao Shujie also asked his father-in-law who he planned to sell these cattle to.
He also said that if there was no contact for the time being, he could help contact the seller and get the money in time.
Because selling to other cattle dealers may not necessarily get the money for selling cattle in time.
However, Xinshengzhai Beef Cattle Processing Factory has always paid Cao Shujie for the valuation first, and then refunded the excess and compensated for the shortfall.
He felt that if his father-in-law sold the cattle and no longer raised cattle, then it would be the best choice for Xinshengzhai to take the cattle away.
At this time, after listening to what their son-in-law said, Li Xiaojuan and Cheng Rengui also thought this idea was okay.
As for the money to buy a house, the old couple still have extra money.
In fact, they could temporarily live at their son-in-law's house in Caojiazhuang, but they thought it was okay for a short period of time. If they stayed at his son-in-law's house for a long time, it would cause trouble for their daughter. Besides, they couldn't afford the money, so they simply gave up.
"Grandma, grandpa, if you go to Qingshi Town, we can see each other more often in the future."
"That's right, grandma, if God rains again in the future, I will go to your house to take shelter from the rain after school, and I will not return to Caojiazhuang." Cao Yirui made his arrangements clearly.
The child's childlike words made the old couple laugh.
As for the future pension issue, Cheng Rengui and Li Xiaojuan are not worried about it now.
It was obvious that the son and daughter-in-law had no intention of caring about them.
Especially when they said that after they sold out this batch of cattle, they no longer planned to raise cattle, nor did they plan to take the 35 calves they ordered. Look at those two people who didn't even come over at night.
In this case, can they be expected to provide for themselves in old age?
And to be honest, when the old couple said they would sell the cows and keep the money themselves, his daughter-in-law didn't even mention letting them go over to help look after the children.
Hey!
On the morning of the second day, Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin returned to Caojiazhuang first.
Before leaving, Cheng Xiaolin told her parents that she would go back to help buy a house first, and they would just give her the money later.
"That's fine. You can tell us when you go back and I'll transfer the money to you." This was the unanimous opinion of the old couple.
They really don't want to take advantage of their daughter. I feel that being able to make money by raising cattle is a huge favor from their son-in-law. They don't think this is natural, so how can they take advantage?
…
On the other side, Cheng Yunping and Liu Yingying heard that their eldest sister and brother-in-law had left, and they wanted to come over and have a good chat with their parents about the money from selling the cattle.
But when she thought that her eldest sister and brother-in-law could come over at any time, she simply didn't get into trouble again. As for asking her mother-in-law to help take care of the children, Liu Yingying didn't mention it at this time.
With things like this, if we let them come over to help take care of the children, they still have to quarrel at home every now and then.
The most despicable side of human nature seems to be vividly displayed in this place, but it also breaks the hearts of Li Xiaojuan and Cheng Rengui.
At this moment, they no longer thought about counting on their son and daughter-in-law. They simply waited until they sold the cattle and went directly to Qingshi Town. Later, they got an electric tricycle and went to Caojiazhuang to set up a stall to sell some things.
No matter how much money they can earn, plus their own savings, it will be enough for their retirement.
If one day they can no longer walk, they might as well go to a nursing home...
…
Besides, with the economic development in Qingshi Town in recent years, many commercial housing communities have been built, but it is just a town after all, and the prices of houses here have not skyrocketed.
A better community costs more than 3,000 yuan per square meter, and an average community costs more than 2,000 yuan per square meter.
After Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin returned to Qingshi Town from Chengjiapo, they immediately went to a community in the town and bought a well-decorated house.
The total cost of 120 square meters was less than 300,000 yuan. Cheng Xiaolin did not ask her husband to pay for it, she paid for it herself.
Because this house is fully decorated, you only need to move in with your bags.
I called her parents in Chengjiapo. As Cheng Xiaolin expected, her mother had to transfer the money to them, and no one could tell her.
In addition, Li Xiaojuan and Cheng Rengui had their daughter's bank account number, so they said they would go to the bank to transfer the money tomorrow without waiting for Cheng Xiaolin's consent.
But Cheng Xiaolin also told them: "I don't want this money. If you want money someday, tell me directly."
She has more than 200 million in deposits in her bank card, and the annual current interest alone is more than 1 million.
In the countryside, Cheng Xiaolin tried her best to spend money and place orders online to buy things, but she couldn't spend any money.
She is not worried that her parents will face difficulties in living and lack of money if they go to Qingshi Town.
And since they are biological parents, Cheng Xiaolin will still take care of them when she should.
As for her brother and sister-in-law, Cheng Xiaolin just pretended that they had no relationship.
When they returned to Caojiazhuang, Cheng Xiaolin still didn't look good. Wang Yuelan immediately noticed that the expression on her daughter-in-law's face was strange, and she came over and asked her: "Linlin, what's wrong? Is it because you were so angry when you returned to your parents' home?
Who bullied you?"
"That's right, if anyone dares to bully our family, I'll ask the villagers to beat him up together." Cao Jianguo said like a rude man.
But Cheng Xiaolin could feel the care her parents-in-law had for her.
Thinking about the meticulous care and concern the old couple had given her over the years, and thinking about how her parents ended up with such a daughter-in-law and son?
I just can't figure it out.
It was Cao Shujie who told his parents what happened in Chengjiapo.
In fact, Wang Yuelan has heard her daughter-in-law occasionally mention things about her parents' family in recent years, but she didn't expect that the in-laws would get to this point. Wouldn't this become a drama where father and son turn against each other and are incompatible with each other?
Wang Yuelan was thinking about how to solve this matter?
She finally said to her son: "Shujie, let's take your father-in-law and mother-in-law over to live here for a while. Why don't you even have such a sharp eye?"
"Mom, I bought them a house in the town and let them live in the town. They usually come to the village scenic spot to sell some things."
Cheng Xiaolin said proactively.
Wang Yuelan thought this was good, and said that old people at their age should do some work and be busy. They have a lot of things to do, and the old ones are slow.
"In the future, when the parks are closed, I can go to the town to chat with my parents-in-law." Wang Yuelan thought strangely. ()
