Seeing this, Madam Zhu interrupted, "Isn't your Lu Ting the eldest son? Isn't your father-in-law planning to transfer that courtyard house to your eldest grandson's name?"
"My son Yiming is only half a year old now. It will take another 10 to 20 years for him to grow up. Now it's Xiaojin and his wife who are moving in."
Mrs. Zhu smiled awkwardly. Was her father-in-law saying that her daughter was the one who was really taking advantage?
It's obvious that the one who takes advantage is
Lu Yiming sat in his aunt's arms, quietly watching the Zhu family fight for benefits for his second aunt.
My aunt is so mean that she always says to abort the child. Does she think that if she threatens his grandfather with the child, he will compromise?
Seeing that the old Zhu couple remained silent, Lu Fengnian continued, "The house was agreed to be given to my eldest grandson. It will be transferred to his name when he turns eighteen. I think by then, my Xiaojin and Xiaochen should have received their share of the house."
"Old Lu, let's not talk about the house for now, let's talk about who will take care of my child Tingting after she is born.
Your grandson should be able to walk after the New Year, right? Comrade Hua Jing can look after him during the day while helping Tingting take care of the child, and your wife can help take care of him at night."
"Old Zhu, you know that a toddler needs someone to help him all the time. Besides, my aunt's sister was invited back by my eldest son. She will live with my son when the time comes. We can't send the second son's child to live with the eldest son, right?"
Zhu Jinghong thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. Not to mention that Lu Ting and his wife might not agree, even if they agreed, Tingting would not feel comfortable leaving her child in someone else's foster home.
"Old Lu, what do you say we should do now?"
"Either your Xiaoting take a year off from school and stay home to take care of the child, or you can hire someone to go to Siheyuan to help take care of the child. Xiaoting's school is not far from Siheyuan, so she can come back after school every day."
After all the twists and turns, they have to pay someone to take care of the child. Zhu Ting will definitely be unhappy. They only have so little money. If she can't breastfeed the child, the milk powder will cost a lot of money. How can they afford to hire someone to take care of the child?
"Dad, Lu Jin and I don't have much money. If we hire another person, the child will need milk powder. How can we support him?
My aunt doesn't help me take care of the children. Is it you who are unwilling to do so, or is it my sister-in-law and the others?
Others have their mothers-in-law helping to take care of their children, so why can't my mother-in-law take care of my grandson?" Zhu Ting burst into tears as she spoke.
Hua Min came out with the dishes and just heard Zhu Ting's hysterical scream, and almost dropped the dishes in her hands.
She was wondering if she, as a mother-in-law, should not work and just take care of her grandchildren. However, Xiaoyu and Xiaochen were still in school, and it would cost a lot of money to get them married in the future.
Hua Min was hesitating. Lu Fengnian thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, let's split up. Lu Yu, go call your eldest brother and his wife."
"good!"
Lu Ting and Su Yan had just finished their meal and were called to Lu's house by Lu Yu before they had even washed the dishes.
When I arrived at Lu's house, I found out that Zhu Ting had called her parents over to support them.
After Su Yan and Lu Ting greeted the Zhu couple, Lu Ting asked Lu Fengnian, "Dad, why did you call us here?"
"Let's talk about the division of the family."
Although they did not live with their parents and sometimes cooked separately, they did not mention separating the family.
It is said that the family will not be divided while the parents are alive. After the family is divided, the brothers will take care of themselves and have no idea what is wrong with their father.
"Dad, isn't this just a joke? Why divide the family?"
"Xiaoting wants your aunt to help her take care of the children in the future."
Seeing that Zhu Ting was still unwilling to give up, Su Yan said directly, "Sister-in-law, if you let your aunt take care of your child, then who will take care of my child? If you ask your aunt to help you take care of the child, I have no objection if you pay her salary. At worst, I can give it to you and hire someone else to take care of my son."
Zhu Ting wiped her tears and said pitifully, "Sister-in-law, your son will definitely be able to walk after the Chinese New Year. You just need to take a look at him. My child would only eat and sleep at that time. I am fully capable of taking care of two children."
"Sister-in-law, have you ever respected your aunt? Have you ever asked for her opinion? Can your aunt take care of two children at once? If she neglects one of them and something unexpected happens, who will be held responsible?
After I got married, I knew that my mother-in-law had to go to work to earn money and had no time to take care of her grandson, so my son Lu Ting invited my aunt to come and help.
Lu Ting and I received the same gifts and watches, but your Lu Jin even got a bicycle. You had a lavish wedding, and in the end, because you were broke, your parents gave you all the gifts.
My Lu Ting has been contributing to the family since he got his first salary. After we got married, he always found a way to get whatever the family needed."
"But my Lu Jin doesn't have a job, and didn't Dad say he would give the courtyard house to your son? I wonder how much attention you're taking away from your parents-in-law by living with them?"
How did she benefit from her parents-in-law? They didn't raise the child, they didn't pay the money, and they didn't live in the house they talked about, and they didn't even see the deed.
My father-in-law just wrote them a blank check. If they are lucky, maybe this blank check will be cashed, but if they are unlucky, nothing will happen.
After all, it's actually the Lu family who benefited from her, okay?
Su Yan sneered, "Zhu Ting, you are like this without a job. If you had a job, would you really pay the household allowance on time?
As for that courtyard house, let alone, weren't you two the ones who ended up living there? You are the actual beneficiaries of the Lu family!"
This was the first time that Lu Fengnian saw his eldest daughter-in-law arguing with his second daughter-in-law. Was the eldest daughter-in-law resenting him?
Seeing Lu Fengnian's gloomy face, Su Yan hurriedly explained with a smile, "Dad, we don't mean to blame you. Taking care of grandchildren is not the exclusive responsibility of grandparents.
And if my mother-in-law really quits her job and goes home to take care of her grandson, that's not realistic either. After all, Xiaoyu and his family aren't married yet..."
Su Yan spoke from the perspective of her parents-in-law, and her words were heartfelt. In the end, Lu Fengnian believed his eldest son and daughter-in-law, who really didn't care about his things.
Zhu Ting felt that Su Yan was pretending to be generous and sensible to please her in-laws. Since they had already hired a nanny, what was wrong with her helping them take care of the child as well?
Doesn’t she like to pretend to be generous? Why is she so stingy with them?
