Shen Qiqi cleared her throat, pulled out a piece of paper from the stack, and showed it to everyone: "After working all night, I have drawn up a preliminary retirement plan. Let's take a look first." There was a confident smile on the corner of her mouth, as if everything was under control.
Everyone came forward, eyes wide open, and studied the thin piece of paper carefully.
The handwriting on the paper is clear and powerful, well-organized, and clearly divides the responsibilities of each family. It is simply a model of targeted poverty alleviation.
My uncle's face was gloomy, his eyes were moving rapidly, and his mind was calculating.
The second uncle frowned and kept mumbling something, as if he was reciting heavenly scriptures.
Lu Qing's cousin seemed a little impatient, rolling his eyes from time to time, as if he was watching some boring farce.
Only Lu Qing looked at Shen Qiqi tenderly and silently gave her a thumbs up.
The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, with only the rustling of papers being flipped through.
As time passed, everyone's expression changed unpredictably like a roller coaster.
The air was filled with tension and anticipation, as if waiting for a wonderful show to begin.
"This...this is not fair!" Suddenly, my cousin broke the silence first. His voice was sharp and harsh, as uncomfortable as nails scratching on a blackboard.
"Why should my family bear so much? I still have to save money to get married!" He slammed the plan on the table, his face full of dissatisfaction. He looked like a child whose candy was snatched away.
"That's right, Qiqi, isn't your plan a bit biased?" Second uncle also agreed, his old face wrinkled as if he had suffered a great injustice.
"My family is really in trouble and can't afford so much!" As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Shen Qiqi, as if afraid that she would not agree.
Although the uncle did not express his opinion directly, his eyes flickered, and it was obvious that he was not satisfied with this plan.
He cleared his throat and prepared to do his usual "crying poor" act, hoping to get away with it.
Watching these "drama queens" taking turns to perform, Shen Qiqi couldn't help but feel a headache.
She knew that the pension issue was not so easy to solve.
She took a deep breath, suppressed the helplessness in her heart, and prepared to face the next round of challenges.
"Everyone," Shen Qiqi's voice was still calm, but it carried an unquestionable power.
"I understand everyone's feelings, but the issue of elderly care is everyone's common responsibility, and no one can escape it." She paused and glanced at everyone, "Of course, if you think the plan is unreasonable, you can also raise it and we can discuss it again." The corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing an unfathomable smile.
"Since you all think it's unreasonable, then..." Shen Qiqi suddenly stood up, picked up the plan, and walked to the window. The sunlight shone on her through the window, as if she was coated with a layer of golden light.
"In that case, let's start over..." As she was speaking, a figure suddenly rushed over and snatched the plan from her hand.
"Who allowed you to change the plan!" An angry voice echoed in the room.
