Chapter 307 Losing the wife and the army

Seeing her daughter-in-law asking for twenty years of pension money, which had to be paid in full at one time, Grandma Lu felt that it was not right, but she didn't say anything because she still had to rely on her son's family in the future. The eldest aunt

was a sensible person. When she heard what her sister-in-law said, she almost rolled her eyes.

She said, "You are out of breath when I say you are fat. Who doesn't know your thoughts? When the money comes, when the old lady can't work, you will not take a look."

Mother Lu said, "Give it monthly. When the old lady passes away, the filial piety money will stop. As for how much to give, just follow the crowd. We will give as much as the people in the brigade give. We will not give less or more."

The girls in the brigade don't give much money to their parents. Basically, they buy some things during the New Year and festivals. On weekdays, they just give a little bit of money.

Unless the family is good to the girls.

Grandma Lu looked at Mother Lu, her eyes full of pleading. She is now eighty years old and feels more and more powerless. She is panicking in her heart.

Didn't Grandma Lu know that she was biased? No, she knew, but people are biased. She has been biased for so many years and has long been accustomed to it.

Grandma Lu was still young at the time and felt that she could do everything. Naturally, she was not afraid of quarreling with her eldest daughter-in-law. She thought that her eldest son's family was unreliable, and her youngest son, whom she had loved since childhood, would support her in her old age.

Sure enough, after that big quarrel, her youngest son said that he would support her, but as time went on, she found that the youngest son might not be reliable.

So every time she let her two daughters subsidize the youngest son, so that the youngest son and his wife would support her for the sake of profit.

Later, she had gotten used to finding a concubine to support her younger son. Even when her daughters were angry, they didn’t argue with her. She thought that this would never change. She didn’t expect that her two daughters would ignore her now.

As for her eldest son, the quarrel was too tense at first, and she couldn’t bring herself to give in to them.

Perhaps she knew subconsciously that she had offended her eldest daughter-in-law too badly. Even if she gave in, her eldest son’s family would not agree to help her in her old age.

If her two daughters no longer lend a hand, she would have a hard time in the future.

Thinking of this, she looked at Lu’s mother, “Qiaofeng…”

Lu’s mother was in a complicated mood now. No one wanted to see the mother who gave birth to and raised them end up alone in old age.

But the old lady went too far this time.

Not only did she target her daughter-in-law, but now she also had her job in mind.

If the old lady had taken some money from her to support herself in her old age, instead of asking for a lot of money from her brother's family, she wouldn't be so angry.

"Mom, don't say anything. Let's follow the rules from now on. We won't delay in paying the old age pension every month. We will pay once a month."

After saying that, she looked at Uncle Lu again, "Weimin, if you want to get the money for a long time, you have to let the old lady live as long as possible. You know what I mean."

Uncle Lu didn't say anything, but if the eldest sister really didn't give a penny, he couldn't do anything to her. His little nephew was not a pushover, and his eldest brother-in-law was not someone who could be easily talked to.

If they were easy to talk to, they would have talked about work yesterday when their eldest sister went back to her parents' home.

If it wasn't for the fact that his eldest brother-in-law was busy taking care of his grandson and not here at the moment, they would have had to find another time when he was not here to talk.

Father Lu, who was playing with his eldest and youngest grandsons in another room, heard what was going on in their room, but for the sake of his wife, he pretended not to hear it

. With Wei Guo around, nothing serious would happen.

That's how it was settled, and Uncle Lu and his family had no choice but to agree. Grandma Lu was silent the whole time, perhaps because she knew that whether she could live long in the future depended on the monthly filial piety money.

It was not until after four o'clock in the afternoon that everyone left one by one.

The first to leave was Uncle Lu's family.

Even though Uncle Lu lived not far from Uncle Lu and his family, Uncle Lu didn't think about leaving with them.

Lu Weiguo and Shi Tingyu had no opinions on the way Lu's mother handled the matter, and Lu Jianguo and his wife would say nothing.

When the uncle's family was arguing about the benefits before, they were like a nobody, not getting any attention from the uncle and his family. At

this time, Lu's sister-in-law felt that being ordinary also had its advantages.

Compared with Shi Tingyu, her sister-in-law, she seemed to have no value, and naturally those troubles could not be found on her head.

Shi Tingyu said that if she were in the position of her mother-in-law, she might have done something more extreme.

Most people in later generations understand the law, and children have the obligation to support the elderly.

But now is different from the later generations. Even if the law stipulates that children have the obligation to support the elderly, the principle followed in rural areas is that sons support the elderly. Daughters are like water spilled after they get married. Even if the daughters don’t give money, no elderly will sue their daughters for not supporting the elderly.

They may make a fuss, but they won’t go to court.

For her, why give money? Just give some filial piety during festivals.

But she is not the mother-in-law after all, and the feelings of the mother-in-law for the grandmother cannot be let go.

Before she traveled through time, she was an orphan and didn’t know the taste of it. After

traveling through time, she had parents and brothers, but they were all very good to her, and they treated her sincerely. She had never encountered such a thing and could not understand the mother-in-law’s dilemma.

After everyone left, Father Lu came out with Shen Shen and Lu Zhen. Seeing that his daughter-in-law looked unhappy, he patted her hands and didn't say anything.

In comparison, his brothers were much better.

Shen Shen's big eyes were dark. Seeing that grandma was in a bad mood, he took out a small biscuit and handed it to Mother Lu.

"Grandma, eat the biscuit, and you will feel sweet."

Mother Lu originally just felt that she was in a bad mood, and she didn't feel sad or wronged, but when Shen Shen said this, her eyes were red in an instant.

This emotion came quickly. Mother Lu was afraid of scaring her grandson, so she quickly turned around and wiped her eyes. When she turned back again, she had a loving smile on her face.

She reached out and took Shen Shen from Father Lu's arms, and said in a soft voice, "How come our Shen Shen is so adorable? Grandma will take you to the factory to play tomorrow, okay?"

Shen Shen's eyes lit up when she heard the word "play".

"Shen Shen wants to play!"

Mother Lu was happy, "Then let's make a deal. If your parents agree, grandma will take you to the factory to play."

Shen Shen looked at his parents standing beside him. The little fat boy held his hands together and finally looked at Shi Tingyu. He said in a coquettish voice, "Mom~"

Shi Tingyu held his forehead with one hand, feeling helpless.

"Okay, Mom agrees, but you must be obedient!"

Shen Shen smiled so much that his eyebrows curved into a crescent shape, "Shen Shen, be obedient!"

At this time, he turned his head to look at his father again, and sure enough, he saw his father nodding with a smile.

Shen Shen was once again impressed by his own intelligence, so he said, if Mom agreed, Dad would definitely agree.

Hearing that his daughter-in-law agreed, Mother Lu was also very happy.

Some of the cadres in their factory would occasionally bring their children to the factory.

She has long wanted to take her grandson to see it.
