Chapter 237 Raising Children Doesn't Provide for Old Age
The others who heard this nodded.
"So, does Fourth Brother know about the demolition in Liangdi?" An Songxiang asked hesitantly.
An Songyu felt somewhat helpless about her younger sister's situation.
How could Ansongshu not know?
After all, this time, their entire family was relocated.
Two other households in Jiangcun were also relocated.
And there are about ten households that have bought houses here.
Today during the day, when An Songyu was at Happiness Garden, not to mention the Jiangcun residents who come almost every day to check on the renovation of their houses.
Even the workers recruited from the neighborhood would casually ask her a question whenever they saw her.
How could An Songshu, who was also from Jiangcun, not have heard the news?
The people in the car shared the same thought.
However, no one knew what to say at the moment.
After all, they all knew why An Songxiang would ask this question.
It's really tough on my aunt and uncle.
Although the two of them seemed to no longer care.
It wasn't just An Songyu and his group who were worried about Yuan Qionghua; her two daughters, who had been called over to help today, were also concerned.
The couple didn't have a car, so it wasn't convenient for them to go home late at night.
So, he decided to stay in Liangdi.
It just so happens that the first floors of all these properties have a similar layout.
When Yuan Qionghua's family bought four plots of land for building a house, they specifically chose plots that were not too far apart.
Later, he gave each of his two daughters a plot of land for building a house.
They even helped build the house.
Originally, Yuan Qionghua only thought that since her house was being demolished, she should at least make life easier for her two daughters.
At the time, Yuan Qionghua couldn't think of any other ways to make money.
Even if it's just about buying a plot of land to rebuild a house for rent, it's still something that can be applied in practice.
This is good, as it also provides my daughters with a long-term source of income.
Today, the two sisters, An Songyun and An Songyi, who were summoned, were naturally each in charge of their respective buildings.
However, Yuan Qionghua and her husband originally calculated the number based on their three children plus themselves.
The house, which had already been built but had never been transferred to the youngest son's name, naturally remained in the hands of the couple.
An Songshu even came back to make a scene about this.
This time, it's unclear whether Yuan Qionghua deliberately didn't inform her youngest son.
An Songshu was still throwing a tantrum; in any case, it was An Songyi's husband who helped her all night.
After watching An Songyu's family and his two aunts leave.
The An sisters each gave their husbands meaningful glances.
As expected, the two brothers-in-law took the initiative to say goodbye.
Although they have visited Liangdi many times since the renovation.
Even if it's just a temporary stay today, there's nothing to pack.
However, the two still needed to give the mother and daughters ample space to communicate.
Yuan Qionghua was also a little tired. Seeing her two daughters still following her around, she said with a sigh:
"What, you two aren't planning to go home tonight?"
“That’s perfect, Dad’s not home either, so let’s share a bed with Mom!” An Songyun said with a mischievous smile as she helped her mother make the bed.
In Shuncheng in April, the temperature is already quite high.
Especially since the last wave of wind and rain has already passed for two days.
The temperature then climbed to its peak at an extremely rapid pace.
An Songyun tidied up the extra blankets on Yuan Qionghua's bed and took out a thin summer quilt.
Yuan Qionghua has been extremely busy lately, and she barely manages to sleep regardless of whether it's hot or cold.
The dark circles under her eyes were so prominent that her two daughters noticed them immediately.
Yuan Qionghua had just found the clothes when she saw her youngest daughter's thoughtful expression and couldn't help but smile.
On the other side, seeing that the kettle was out of boiling water, An Songyi quickly turned on the stove.
If there is no warm water or cool boiled water at night, leave it out.
Her mother would get up thirsty in the middle of the night and drink whatever she could grab.
When Yuan Qionghua came out after taking a shower, her two daughters washed her dirty clothes.
No wonder her youngest daughter reminded her not to close the door tightly as soon as she entered the shower room.
Yuan Qionghua originally thought that her daughter still needed to use the restroom.
But to her surprise, as soon as she took off her clothes, her youngest daughter opened a small gap, reached in, hooked the dirty laundry basket, and left.
"Alright, you've all finished the chores around the house. I'll go straight to bed as soon as my hair dries." Yuan Qionghua checked the time and immediately urged them to hurry up.
"You two sisters, just go wherever you want to go!"
The two sisters exchanged a glance after soaking the towel Yuan Qionghua had used for showering twice before hanging it up to dry.
While wiping the water off his hands, he pondered how to begin.
Neither of them has been particularly eloquent, from before they got married until now.
Moreover, bringing this up not only displeased his mother, but also implied that he was inquiring about his parents' finances.
That wasn't what the sisters meant, so they were even more at a loss for how to bring it up.
On the contrary, Yuan Qionghua was really troubled by the state of her two daughters.
She said with a hint of helplessness, "Just say what you want to say!"
She'd been hesitating for ages, and if she didn't speak up soon, she was about to go to sleep.
Urged on by Yuan Qionghua, the two sisters had no choice but to speak up.
The two exchanged a glance, and finally, An Songyi, being the eldest sister, asked the question:
"Um, why didn't Xiaoshu come to help with the demolition?"
Let alone Ayu's family.
Except for his two daughters, one of whom is studying at a university in Tainan and cannot come back.
It was during the crucial period of the college entrance examination, and we couldn't disturb our fourth uncle's family.
My cousin, who is now a high school sophomore, also came over tonight.
Although he managed to snag a delicious meal, he rushed back to school immediately.
At least all the family members who could come forward did.
On the contrary, it's Ansong Tree...
"Whether he comes to help or not is his own business!" Yuan Qionghua replied without changing her expression in the slightest.
"However, I don't want to notify him to come over."
"Xiaoyi, Xiaoyun, you both have your own families now."
"Don't think too much about what's going on between us and your brother."
"Anyway, your dad and I are still young! Not to mention now, even twenty years from now, you don't need to worry about us."
As for the future... let's talk about that later!
Just like my niece said.
In another twenty years, perhaps retirement will no longer be a problem.
As long as they have money, it doesn't matter who takes care of them in their old age.
Without the filter of relying on children for old age.
Yuan Qionghua truly felt that, looking at her youngest son's matter, it really... wasn't a big deal anymore!
The An sisters were slightly taken aback, and for a moment they didn't know how to start the conversation.
We should try to persuade them!
It seems that Yuan Qionghua was not as heartbroken as her sisters had feared for her brother's behavior.
But to say I shouldn't advise against it!
The two sisters felt that something was wrong!
However, before the two sisters could think it through properly...
Yuan Qionghua waved goodbye and urged them to leave again.
It's so late at night!
Although the houses are not far apart, there is no need to keep lingering here with her.
