He looked at Lin Xinghua and said, "Dad, you can't be partial to your eldest brother and his children, right? They are all grandchildren, so you shouldn't be too partial. You didn't take care of Lin Chuan and Xiao Wen, but now that the rice has been harvested, they are clamoring to taste the new rice. As a grandfather, you can't refuse to give them to them."
Lin Xinghua was extremely worried. He no longer made the decisions in this family. This was not something he had the final say on.
Wang said: "This year I changed the head of the household registration to Lin An. Wang is the head of the family. You can ask Wang."
"What? The old man is still alive, how can you let a young boy be the head of the household? Dad, you are confused."
"Yes, I am old and confused, so I let Lin An, who is not confused, be the head of the household."
"you……"
"Alright, I've already told you that I'm not the boss, so it's no use asking me. You guys go find Lin An, if he wants to give it to you, then I'll give it to you. If he doesn't want to give it to you, then I can't do anything about it."
"Why can't I help you? You are the grandfather, how can I object to it if you say so?"
"That's right, I think you are biased." Li Mei cried, "My Lin Chuan and Xiao Wen are so pitiful, how could they have to deal with such a biased grandpa like you."
"If you insist on being so partial, let the three of us take care of you in your old age."
"That's right. Whoever you raise should take care of you in your old age. You never took care of Lin Chuan and Xiao Wen, so don't look for us to take care of you in the future."
Xie Lin said forcefully, "You talk as if you were the ones who raised Grandpa."
At this time, Ye Xiaozhen had also arranged the stove and came out of the house.
"Third uncle and auntie are wrong. Only when children are gone will the responsibility of supporting the elderly fall on the grandchildren. Grandpa didn't raise Lin Chuan and Xiao Wen, but he raised Third Uncle, so Third Uncle should support him in his old age."
Don’t you really understand the law?
Even if you don't understand the law, you can always understand common sense, right?
No, we understand the law and common sense. We say this on purpose to take advantage of the fact that you don't understand.
They just pretend to be ignorant even though they know the truth.
"Xiaozhen?"
The two looked at her in surprise.
"Uncle and aunt, originally we never thought of asking you to take care of grandpa in his old age. We decided to take care of him ourselves. But it is not our responsibility. Taking care of grandpa in his old age is not a law or an obligation, but a family relationship.
If you insist on saying that it is the responsibility of the three Xie Linan brothers, then let's go to court to discuss responsibility and hear the judge's opinion on who should raise the child. "
Ye Xiaozhen's straightforward words left the two people at a loss for words.
Don’t you understand? If you understand very well, you will not really go to court.
We are teachers. If people knew that we were sued by our nephew for not providing for our old father, wouldn't that be a big deal?
Maybe all the work will be lost.
Li Mei said: "Why do we say this as a family?"
Funny, didn’t we say it first?
"As a woman, don't interfere in the affairs of men at home."
Ye Xiaozhen laughed out loud, "Didn't Third Aunt just tell me that women should take care of men and be the head of the household?"
Li Mei: “…”
Ye Xiaozhen said earnestly: "If I were you, I wouldn't take advantage of you. Be careful not to take advantage of you and end up vomiting all the advantages you took before."
Being scolded by a nephew's wife?
Both of them were embarrassed.
"What are you talking about? What do you mean we took advantage of them?" Xie Zhili said angrily, "The house and land in our home have been occupied by us brothers, so what if we just took a little food?"
Ye Xiaozhen: "Oh, listen to what you said, isn't it hilarious? The land in the village was only distributed a few years ago, according to household registration. If you want the land, why don't you transfer your household registration back? You have a household registration in the city and receive food coupons, but you are greedy for the land at home. You want to take advantage of both ends, why are you so greedy?"
The two were speechless in front of her.
Xie Linli and Xie Linqi both admire Ye Xiaozhen very much. How come she doesn't have such eloquence?
"What about the room at home? It's been occupied by you brothers."
This is a house passed down from ancestors, so it's hard for her to say.
But at this time Xie Linan came back.
놛 strode in, looked at Xie Zhili and Li Mei and said, "Uncle and Auntie are not very old, how come they have Alzheimer's disease?"
Xie Zhili: “…”
Li Mei: "..."
"When you were assigned housing in your unit, according to the regulations, you could only get a single room based on your qualifications, but in the end you were given two rooms with a separate toilet, which required additional money.
My father paid for this, on the condition that you give up the house. The note you signed with your fingerprints is still in my hand, do you want to see it? "
Oh, it turns out that the room has long been out of our reach.
Seeing Xie Linan coming back, Ye Xiaozhen was at a loss for words. Unable to make a breakthrough with them, the two of them turned their attention to their old father.
At this time, Lin Xinghua was squatting in the corner smoking, being entangled by them, his face full of fatigue.
"Dad, come and tell me what we should do. Do you want to give some new rice to your two grandchildren?"
Lin Xinghua tapped his cigarette stick and said, "I'm old, I'm not the head of the family anymore, you ask the head of the family."
"Hey, this is the food you, as a grandfather, need to take care of your grandchildren. I won't take ours, but I can take your share, right?"
Xie Linan sneered, "I'm sorry, Grandpa doesn't grow rice in that field."
"What?" Xie Zhili said, "When the wheat was harvested, you said that the wheat on that land was eaten. Now that the rice has just been harvested, you said that there is no rice on the land. What was planted instead of rice?"
"Grandpa took it to the dam, it's all cement. Take two pieces back."
Xie Zhili: “…”
"You...you are just being shameless."
"I don't deserve it. I am far behind you, Third Uncle."
He stood in front of the two men with his arms folded, but the two of them together were not enough to hit him with one arm.
The two of them couldn't be defeated by reason, by roguery, or by fighting.
Seeing that there was really no other way, he used his last trick.
"Dad, this year we plan to send Lin Chuan to live in the school dormitory. When school starts, you can come to our house."
Without waiting for Lin Xinghua to speak, Xie Linan said, "That's fine too. I won't stop you from fulfilling your filial duties. You should have been more filial to Grandpa a long time ago. You can take the person away, but you are not allowed to take any food from the house."
They both: “…”
"Xie Linan, don't go too far. Your grandfather raised you, and you are such an ungrateful person that you don't even give him food to eat?"
Why don't you give grandpa food to eat?
Ye Xiaozhen: "Aunt, you are trying to change the subject here. You keep saying filial piety means you don't even give me food to eat? I have to bring my own food?"
The two were speechless again.
Seeing that they couldn't get any advantage, and the old man squatted in the corner smoking silently without saying a word, they left in anger.
After they walked away, they could be heard cursing.
