With Liang Youyi paralyzed, the Liang family collapsed immediately.
Yang Huizhen has never earned any money in her life, and she is only 48 years old, not yet of retirement age. Not only does she not receive a pension, she is still paying social security.
The paralyzed Liang Youyi applied for early retirement. Considering his situation, the bank provided him with a normal retirement pension and even granted him work injury compensation. After all, the accident occurred on his way to work.
Although the family still has more than 500,000 yuan in savings, the mortgage has not been paid off yet. Now that we are retired and have no provident fund, we have to pay the mortgage ourselves.
After paying off the mortgage, there is almost nothing left after hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Although she still receives a monthly pension of more than 10,000 yuan, Yang Huizhen simply cannot cope with a 6-year-old son and a paralyzed husband.
What's more, paralyzed people usually don't live long.
Once Liang Youyi died, Yang Huizhen and her son would lose their source of income.
As a daughter and sister, Liang Xi's burden suddenly became heavy.
The Lu family, who had long been very dissatisfied with their in-laws, really turned against them this time. As a man, it was impossible for him to be willing to have a wife who was a demon.
My brother-in-law, who is only 6 years old, is studying and getting married. That’s no joke. It’s like having another son!
Lu Jun completely exploded and gave Liang Xi two choices: either ignore it or divorce!
Liang Xi was anxious, angry, and sad. Things had already come to this. What could she do? Even if she could be cruel and ignore her brother, could she really ignore her paralyzed father?
No way!
That's her father, the one who raised her since she was a child!
After quarreling for more than three months, Liang Xi finally divorced.
The Lu family was determined to keep Lu Xian, the bloodline. Considering her own situation, Liang Xi did not fight for custody.
As for the house, after discussion, Liang Xi, who felt that he owed something to his son, did not divide the house. Instead, he and Lu Jun made a fair deal and left their 160-square-meter house to their son Lu Xian.
The mortgage is still repaid with the provident fund of both parties, and Liang Xi gives 1,500 yuan in child support every month.
After the divorce, Liang Xi moved to her parents' house to take care of her father Liang Youyi.
In order to save money, the nanny was dismissed. From then on, Liang Xi had to work while taking care of the elderly and children, and the burden of life suddenly became heavier.
Because they lived close together, Liang Xi would be the first to hear about any news from the Lu family. Lu Jun, a grown man, found it inconvenient to take care of a child, so he simply sent Lu Xian to his parents' house and didn't pick him up even at night.
Lu Jun sometimes lives directly at his parents' house, and sometimes returns to this community.
In order to see her son, Liang Xi could only go to her ex-parents-in-law's house, but every time she went there, her parents-in-law were not in a good mood.
Then, within two months, Lu Jun got married. It was said that the bride was a colleague in his company.
Then, less than 6 months after getting married, Lu Jun’s wife gave birth to a son!
Upon hearing the news, Liang Xi was furious. 6 months! Even if they had been together right after their divorce, it wouldn't have happened that quickly!
What's more, if two people get married, they should at least have a relationship and develop feelings for each other, right?
What does this mean? It means the two of them have been hooking up for a long time!
This scumbag Lu Jun cheated on his wife a long time ago!
Bastard!
Liang Xi was furious, but what could she do? They were already divorced.
Although she could appeal and win the custody of her son based on this reason, Liang Xi was already exhausted with a father and a younger brother. Even if she won the custody of her son, she would not be able to take care of him. She was really powerless.
Liang Xi could only swallow his anger.
In the following life, her ex-husband and she were loving and happy, and their life was thriving, but her life was miserable. Even her son sided with his stepmother and no longer recognized her as his mother.
When they first divorced, their son Lu Xian was still very close to her, but as time went on, it became clear that the Lu family had instilled in him the idea that "your mother wants her brother, not you as her son", and Lu Xian gradually began to resent Liang Xi.
Not only did his son not understand, but bad things happened one after another at home.
When you are in your fifties or sixties, it is really like that saying goes: you have elderly parents, young children to take care of, and you have to take care of your grandchildren, so the pressure is enormous.
Two years after his father Liang Youyi became paralyzed, Liang Xi's grandfather was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, also known as senile dementia.
Liang Youyi has only one younger sister, who married and moved to the next city and cannot come back to take care of him. Although Grandma Liang is in good health, once Grandpa Liang falls ill, no one recognizes him. Grandma Liang has to farm, do housework and take care of the old man all by herself, which is simply too much for her to handle, not to mention her old age.
In the end, Liang Xi and her aunt discussed it and decided to hire a nanny.
The nanny's salary is not expensive, only 3,000 yuan a month. In addition, the living expenses of the two elderly people are 2,000 yuan a month.
The total amount is 5,000, and Liang Youyi's family, as a male, pays 3,000 per month.
Less than a year later, Liang Xi's grandmother, Yang Huizhen's mother, passed away.
In addition to her older sister Yang Shufen, Yang Huizhen also has an older brother. According to custom, the brother should take care of the elderly, but the couple works away from home all year round and cannot take care of the elderly.
Now that his wife has passed away, Mr. Yang can't take care of himself by himself. What's more, it makes people worry that he is alone at home.
Yang Shufen is a married woman from outside her family, and her family would never agree to let the elderly live with them.
So, the eldest brother Yang thought about it, and the three siblings pooled their money to send the old man to a better nursing home. In the end, the eldest brother Yang contributed 2,000 yuan a month, and Yang Huizhen and Yang Shufen contributed 1,000 yuan a month, and the matter of sending the old man to the nursing home was finalized.
A monthly expense of 4,000 yuan is a considerable expense for the Liang family. And since Liang Jie started kindergarten, his weak constitution has once again become apparent.
During peak flu season, if any child in the class caught a cold, Liang Jie would definitely be infected. Once someone got the flu, going to the hospital would cost at least four or five hundred yuan, and at most over a thousand yuan.
Medical expenses are also a major expense.
Moreover, children in the city have been attending classes since they were young. Every child in the class has signed up for at least one class, and the children will ask each other, "What are you learning?" "I'm learning dance!" "What about you?"
It’s not okay not to take any interest classes.
Liang Youyi, who is paralyzed in bed, also needs to use some medicines and nutritional supplements, which is also an expense.
In short, money is needed everywhere and life is very tight.
Life without money is always difficult.
After enduring for several years, when Liang Jie was 14 years old, Liang Youyi, who had been paralyzed for 8 years, finally passed away.
Fortunately, Liang Xi's grandparents and grandfather passed away one after another in the past eight years. Although Liang Youyi's monthly pension of more than 10,000 yuan is no longer available, the expenses have been reduced a lot.
Even so, life was still not easy, but we could make ends meet.
Graduated from junior high school, graduated from high school, graduated from college... Time flies, Liang Jie is 28 years old and is about to get married.
