Chapter 138 Shameless
"Hey, I still think that the matter of taking care of our parents in their old age should be left to us, so that the villagers won't scold us for being unfilial."
Feng Xinliang was startled. "Why didn't you say so earlier? We've been scolded for months. I'm used to it."
Zhao Hui: “…”
"You are such a slut, how can I get used to scolding you?"
Feng Xinliang shrank his neck.
Yes, sometimes he also feels that he is quite cheap and is used to being scolded.
"Mom and Dad are doing well now, don't disturb them."
"How can this be? You are a cheapskate, you are used to being scolded, but I am not. I can't stand being scolded, I plan to provide for them in their old age."
Feng Xinliang was a little touched, thinking that his wife finally had a change of heart.
"But how can we provide for their old age? We have cleared out the room they live in to give to our second child as a wedding room. They won't have anywhere to live when they come back, and we are not able to provide for their old age."
"I've thought about it. They can still sleep at Fengmian's house at night and come back to eat together during the day. What do you think?"
"You mean to call them when it's time to eat?"
Zhao Hui choked. Call him back to eat ready-made food? What if she runs a restaurant? You wish.
"I mean to send them to bed at night and pick them up in the morning. They are getting older, and if something happens to them, we won't know what's going on. It's more reassuring to keep them under our noses, right?"
"Is this... too much trouble? My dad has difficulty walking and can't stand it."
"What's the big deal? Didn't Feng Mian buy him a wheelchair? I heard that wheelchair can be moved by hand cranking."
"If the road is wide, you can walk on it. But how can you walk on a narrow road? The ridges are so narrow. Don't let my dad push you into the paddy field. It's too much trouble to make trouble. Forget it."
Zhao Hui got angry when she heard this, "Hey, what's wrong with you? They are still your biological parents, why are you so unfilial?"
"I……"
"Feng Xinliang, I have seen through you. You are an unfilial son."
ah?
"Your parents are old now. If anything happens to them, no one will know about it. If you don't take them here, you will regret it."
"No, I... Oh, they have to be willing. I don't think they will."
"Why not? When they get older, they love to take care of their grandchildren. If they come back and can see their grandchildren every day, they will be so happy."
"Why take care of grandchildren? My mom is tired of raising them till they are this old."
"Hey, Feng Xinliang, I told you one thing, but you insisted on saying something else. Just one word, do you understand or not?"
Zhao Hui looked like she was going to fight with him, so Feng Xinliang had no choice but to say, "Hey, I'll ask tomorrow."
The next day, Feng Xinliang was helping Zhang fetch water and happened to bring up this matter.
"Mom, Xiaohui said she regretted being unfilial to you."
Zhang sneered, "Oh, the sun is rising from the west, how can she regret it?"
Feng Xinliang hesitated to speak, thought for a moment and then said, "People in the village gossip about us. She is shy and feels embarrassed by what they say."
Zhang looked as if she had seen a ghost. "She is thin-skinned? How can you tell?"
this……
Feng Xinliang opened his mouth but could not utter a word.
Yeah, when did Zhao Hui become thin-skinned?
"Come on, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't keep me in suspense here."
Seeing that Zhang was getting impatient, he said, "It's like this. You see, Mianmian and the others are not at home right now. Xiaohui is worried that when you grow up, no one will know if something happens to you, so she wants to invite you back home."
"Go back? Who will live there? I heard that you renovated our room and planned to give it to the second son as a wedding room, so he has moved in. Your father and I are going back, so the second son and his wife will live in the woodshed?"
"Ah? No, what she meant is that you can stay here at night and go back home during the day. That means she will send you back to sleep after dinner, and pick you up in the morning. Mom, what do you think?"
