Chapter 295 Elderly Care Issues
Jiang Xinlan raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Didn't I say that my family and my second sister-in-law are willing to pay? It depends on what my eldest brother and his wife think?"
Zhao Dahai and Xu Fengni immediately looked at Zhao Yishan and Xia Ju and asked, "What about you? What do you think? Give me a definite answer."
Zhao Yishan glanced at his second and third brothers who didn't care, and said helplessly: "Mom and Dad, you know that we have two sons, and the pressure is really great..."
"Well, it's so big that he's not even willing to pay the eight hundred." Jiang Xinlan added.
Zhao Yishan ignored her and complained to his mother, "Mom, I just said that Yuanzhi is 24 years old and has finally found a marriage partner. The girl doesn't have any other requirements. She just wants a room and a little decoration. Don't you think this will cost money?"
"Oh, you just want to show off that you have two sons, right? Who told you to give birth to two sons when you have no ability?" Ding Li rolled her eyes sarcastically.
Xia Ju rolled her eyes at Ding Li and said, "We are talking to our parents, why do you always interrupt us?"
Ding Li retorted without even looking up: "That just means that what you said is unbearable to listen to!"
"Okay, it's just a matter of words. Yishan, will you pay for it? Yes or no? Think about it carefully. If you don't pay, you will definitely not get a share of this house."
Zhao Dahai was too lazy to waste any more time and asked directly.
"dad,"
"Don't shout at me, answer me."
Zhao Yishan was helpless and glanced at his wife. "Forget it, I'll pay for it. Isn't it okay for me to pay for it?"
"Haha, it's as if someone is forcing you. You want the house but don't want to pay for it. You're so flattered!"
"Ding Li, what does this have to do with you? Will you die if you say less?" Xia Ju couldn't bear it any longer and felt that Ding Li was really annoying.
Ding Li raised her head and replied, "Why is it none of my business? If you don't pay and still want the house, won't it be our two families that will suffer?"
"Okay, it's not too late to have you."
"Haha, you talk as if you like to be taken advantage of." Ding Li is annoyed with her eldest uncle and his wife the most. She feels that she is the eldest and everything in the family belongs to her. She can't believe that in this era, they are still doing those country things!
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Xu Fengni felt relieved, so she smiled and said, "Well, since you all agree, then both of your families should give the money to Xinlan tomorrow, so that your father and I can write the receipt more easily.
There is one more thing. Your father and I are both over 60 years old. It is time to consider the issue of retirement. Let’s settle the matter while Yitai and Xinlan are still here.”
Xia Ju and Ding Li were united after hearing what their mother-in-law said. They smiled and said, "Mom, look at what you said. You are only 60 years old. How can you need retirement care? Besides, Dad's monthly pension is enough for you to spend."
Xu Fengni glanced at her two daughters-in-law and said in a deep voice, "Your father has a pension, but what about me? What do I have?"
Xia Ju covered her mouth and smiled, "Mom, look at what you said, Dad's money is all yours, right, Dad?"
Zhao Dahai saw that his eldest daughter-in-law had brought up the topic of his life, so he coughed twice and replied, "That was in the past. Things are different now. I get my own retirement pay now. I don't need your support at the moment, but you have to take care of your mother."
This is what the old woman taught him last night. They are all old, and the sons are all like this, so they have to deduct some money from them. Although Yitai and Xinlan will not ignore them, they can't just take advantage of the third son's family because of this. Each of the three sons should pay, this is fair!
"Dad, why would you do this? Mom has lived with you all her life, and now you are old and you are doing this..." Zhao Yishan looked at his old father with some disbelief. If his father was not already 62 years old, an age where he was powerless, he would have suspected that there was someone else outside.
"Yes, Dad, Mom is so sad when you do this! Don't worry, Mom, we will all persuade Dad," Zhao Yifeng also said.
Xia Ju and Ding Li, on the other hand, seemed to be thinking about something. They thought that their mother-in-law was so capable and virtuous, and their father-in-law still did this when he was old. So what about them? Should they also keep some tricks for themselves?
Xu Fengni waved her hands and replied, "I'm not sad. Your father has worked hard all his life. He used to support you, and he never touched the money in the family. Now that he's old, it's normal for him to love money. I can understand his lack of security."
"Do you understand? Mom, stop joking. I..."
"I think this is a good idea, mom and dad. How about each of our three families give mom 20 yuan, so that she can have 60 yuan a month."
At this time, Jiang Xinlan stood up. She felt that her parents-in-law's idea was quite correct. Anyway, they would be far away and unable to take care of her in the future, so they could just pay.
"Twenty dollars? Jiang Xinlan, you're the only one who can say that, right?"
Xia Ju was very disgusted with Jiang Xinlan for saying this. They were the only ones who had money. If they had money, why didn't they just pay it out? Why did they have to share the cost?
"Hehe, twenty for a family, sixty every month is a bit much, and not necessary," Xu Fengni nodded gently at Jiang Xinlan, knowing that she had this intention.
After hearing this, Zhao Yishan quickly responded: "Yes, Xinlan just doesn't know how hard it is to make money. How can mom spend 60 yuan a month, not to mention..." He originally wanted to say that dad still has money, but then he remembered what his father had just said, so it's better not to mention it.
"I think if each family pays ten dollars, thirty dollars a month is enough for Mom to spend alone, don't you think?"
At this time, Ding Li also quickly suggested that she was willing to pay ten yuan a month.
Zhao Yitai, who had been silent until now, received his wife's signal and said with a smile: "Second sister-in-law is right, then each family will contribute ten dollars? Mom, what do you think?"
Xu Fengni's budget was actually to have twenty dollars a month, after all, she was in charge of the old man's money. But since they wanted to give her thirty, she didn't hesitate.
So she smiled and replied, "Okay, each family will contribute 10 yuan, at the beginning of each month, is that okay with you?"
"No objection, no objection." If you have any more objections, I don't know what else you can come up with.
"That's good. In this way, you will pay ten yuan a month for my retirement. Please note that this is for me alone. During the holidays, it's up to you. And when we get sick and go to the hospital for treatment, you don't have to worry about your dad. He is taken care of by the government. The money I spend on my illness must be shared equally by the three of you."
"Okay, we'll give it to you."
"Okay, we've finished talking about everything for today, you can go back now! Remember to get the money tomorrow." Xu Fengni gave a final reminder.
When Xia Ju stood up and was about to leave, she saw Jiang Xinlan and her husband still sitting there. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yitai, Xinlan, aren't you going home?"
"We're not going back. We'll be staying at my parents' place for the next few days. We've rented out the house. Oh, Mom, I forgot to tell you, from now on you will help me collect the rent every month. It's 18 yuan a month, which will be your retirement money."
Jiang Xinlan was still worrying about how to collect the rent in the future. Now, she will let her mother-in-law collect it on time every month.
