But later, too many things happened, which made the old lady increasingly disappointed in her children. Finally, she decided not to leave any of the remaining money to them.
Later, her health became worse and worse, and she could not control her bowel and bladder. She would often urinate in her pants or on the bed. As a result, the three children never came into her room again after that, and they only talked to her from a distance at the door.
She knew very well that she had a smell, but their dislike for her was so obvious, which made her feel even more sad.
When they were little, she would clean up their shit and piss without any complaints.
Now she didn't even need them to clean her, she just wanted them to come closer and talk to them more, but they were unwilling to come over.
She is their mother!
From that time on, the old lady no longer had any expectations of them.
In the last few years of her life, it was Gu Congfen who took care of her all the time. Even if she did it for money, she still gave her heart and effort, which was what the old lady needed.
After all, at her age, what people fear most is not illness and death, but loneliness.
Her children and grandchildren should have taken care of her and been by her side, but the one accompanying her was a stranger with no blood relationship.
Perhaps sometimes outsiders are closer than so-called relatives.
So in the last period of her life, the old lady made a decision. She decided to leave her savings to Gu Congfen instead of to her children.
She planned to repay her for taking care of herself in this way.
Of course, there is another reason why she did this, which is that she wanted to make those children regret it!
She knew each of her children's personalities very well. Although the eldest child had a weak temper and didn't dare to say anything, he couldn't be without some resentment in his heart. He would definitely secretly complain about her being unfair.
As for the second brother, he is obsessed with money and can't wait to get into the hole of money. If he knew that the little money she had left was given to others, I don't know how angry he would be!
And the third one.
She was indeed her most beloved daughter, but the more love she gave to the third daughter, the deeper her disappointment became later.
Moreover, in the eyes of the third child, she probably deserved to be favored, so everything left behind should belong to her.
But she just wouldn't leave it to her!
Coming to her senses, she replied to the children's unacceptable expressions, "I decided to give the money to Xiao Gu. It has nothing to do with her. Please don't bother her anymore."
"That money was saved when I was young. It wasn't given to me by you. How I spend it is my own business."
Yang Laoer was furious and couldn't help but yell, "Mom, are you confused? We are your children, your closest relatives. Why do you give her money?"
"Are you mad at us just because we don't come back to see you more often? Please, Mom, do you think we are like you? You just need to lie in bed every day and have food, drink and people to serve you? We need to make money, we need to live! And we also pay for the babysitter. If we don't work, you can't even afford a babysitter!"
"Yang Jianshou!"
Yang Jianling scolded him loudly.
She was just about to continue asking why he was so fussy about such a small amount of money when she heard Gu Congfen on the other side speak up, unable to bear it any longer.
"Yang Lao Er, you're such a scoundrel! Your mother worked so hard to raise you. I don't know how much she's spent on you since you were little. You're so crazy when I ask you to spend a little money. If you really want to be so calculating, why don't you return all the money and hard work your mother has put in to her?"
"I feel so disappointed for your mother. She actually gave birth to a selfish, heartless person like you!"
After scolding Yang Laoer, Gu Congfen looked at the third brother Yang Jianling angrily.
"And you, Yang Laosan, do you think you're great just because you can make money? When your mother asked you to come back to see her, you either directly transferred money to her so she could buy whatever she wanted, or you directly asked your subordinates to come over to give her a perfunctory visit. She's your own mother, not some business partner of yours!"
"You're busy, but your mother wasn't busy before. But I didn't see her abandoning you to someone else to take care of you when you were little, and then just giving you some living expenses and letting you fend for yourself."
"It's true that once you've had a little bit of money, you can't tell the difference. You can't even tell the difference between your mother and your subordinates."
After teaching Yang Jianling a lesson, Gu Congfen looked at Boss Yang again.
"Look at you, the eldest brother. Not only can you not stand up for yourself, but you can't even take care of your younger siblings. Are you the eldest brother or the youngest brother? All you do is work outside all day long. You have a reputation as an elder, but why don't you help your own mother more often? Not only do you serve her tea and water, wash her clothes and cook for her, you even help others with your strength. Why don't you push your mother down to get some sun?"
"You idiots, do you really think that everything will be fine just because she has a nanny to look after her? I really don't know if I did something bad in my past life to end up with children like you!"
"Why would my elder sister leave money to an outsider like me and also to you? Of course, she's disappointed by you. You don't even know this, and yet you still ask? You're really shameless!"
After cursing, Gu Congfen was also very angry.
She also has a son and a daughter. Although her children are not very good to her, they are still good to her.
At least after comparing herself with the three siblings of the Yang family, Gu Congfen felt that her two useless children did have a conscience.
The three of them were very angry after Gu Congfen pointed at their noses and scolded them by name.
But they couldn't find any reason to refute what Gu Congfen said.
Finally the old lady stopped it.
"Forget it, Xiao Gu, no need to say more."
Then she looked at her three children.
"I didn't leave you my last bit of savings, but I didn't leave you nothing either. At least I can tell you from my own experience that raising children doesn't necessarily prevent old age. You should also educate your own children in the future."
After the old lady finished speaking, she no longer looked at the three children and just smiled at Gu Congfen.
"Xiao Gu, you've worked hard these years. I hope that money can help you, so you won't have to work so hard in the future."
Gu Congfen's family conditions were not very good, otherwise she would not have been able to work as a live-in nanny, cleaning the feces and urine of a paralyzed old man in bed.
Although she has some minor flaws, she is a truly kind-hearted person.
The old lady was very glad that she met her instead of someone else when she was sick.
Gu Congfen knew that the old lady was really going to die this time, and she couldn't help wiping away tears.
"Old sister, you have to be healthy in the afterlife too. In your next life, it doesn't matter if you have children or not. Just don't give birth to another idiot like this!"
Although strictly speaking the three children did not abuse her and they hired a nanny to take care of her, she only saw them a few times a year and had to ask the nanny Gu Congfen for help with everything. What's the difference between this and not giving birth to these children?
The old lady's own pension money is enough to hire a nanny, and she doesn't really need the money from her children to hire one for her.
What she needs is companionship and care.
But they still don't understand.
After saying hello to Gu Congfen, the old lady's soul slowly disappeared in front of everyone.
The children realized something at this moment, and stared blankly at the center of the room where their old mother had been standing. But she was no longer there.
"Mom, Mom... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so stupid..."
The eldest brother cried with red eyes.
The second child's originally angry expression also changed to panic and sadness.
"I, I really didn't mean to say those words just now, I just, I just couldn't help it..."
Only the third brother held back his tears and said nothing, and only gave the compensation he had originally promised to Gu Congfen.
She gave him 20,000 yuan, but Gu Congfen thought about it and decided not to accept it.
"Money isn't everything. I don't want this money. I just want you to apologize to me."
Gu Congfen thought that Yang Jianling would never apologize to her based on her personality, but what she didn't expect was that after looking at her for a while, Yang Jianling finally apologized to her in a low voice.
"I'm sorry, and...thank you."
Gu Congfen sighed, said nothing more, and took the vegetables home.
Lin Xi also left after receiving the transfer from Yang Jianling.
She and Gu Congfen took the elevator downstairs together. While in the elevator, Gu Congfen kept observing Lin Xi quietly.
Lin Xi noticed it and turned to ask her: "What's the matter?"
Gu Congfen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "No, nothing. I just think you are really amazing, Master. You can even bring back the souls of the dead. Do you have any other skills?"
Lin Xi didn't mind her calling her skills a craft, and nodded in acknowledgement.
"Oh, that's too much. Master, can I have your contact information?"
Lin Xi saw that she wanted to ask him for help, so he didn't refuse and quickly exchanged his contact information with Gu Congfen.
It was still relatively early when the matter was resolved, and Lin Xi saw that he could still make it back to school for dinner, so he told Xu Jing about it first. Then, seeing that there was still some time, he simply took a walk around the mall that he had not had time to go shopping before.
She then left the mall carrying two large bags full of snacks.
When I returned to the dormitory, the other people in the dormitory were discussing something.
Lin Xi distributed some of Lin Xi to a few people, and was then pulled aside by Xu Jing to ask about joining the group.
It turned out that what they were discussing just now was the topic of the group.
"Just now, the school forum said that the Hundred Regiments Campaign will begin this week, and there will be many groups recruiting at that time. By the way, Lin Xi, do you want to join any group?"
Lin Xi was just about to say that she had no interest in the group when she heard Xu Jing continue.
"Joining a group will earn you some Sutaku points! I don't know if joining more groups will earn you Sutaku points. If I can, I'll join more."
Sutuo points?
Lin Xi paused.
She recalled that the counselor seemed to have mentioned this matter at the time, and asked them to actively participate in extracurricular activities. He also said that both physical extension points and moral education points were very important. After all, their school was not determined to cultivate students who only studied hard, but hoped that students would develop comprehensively in terms of morality, intelligence, physical fitness and aesthetics.
This group of people is a must-see, right?
Not only do you have to attend classes, but you also have to participate in activities.
Lin Xi suddenly felt that going to college was not as easy as he had imagined.
Who said you can have fun once you go to college?
Oh, it’s a high school teacher.
