Lin Xiaoman had no sense of existence and watched Liang Xi's life throughout in front of the crowd of spectators.
After Liang Xi returned, she and Lu Jun did not have any major conflicts. Without the interference of their parents, Liang Jie did not cause them any trouble, and their relationship was still very good.
So, after Lu Xian turned 5 years old, the second child plan was put on the agenda. Liang Xi became pregnant again and gave birth to a little princess before the end of the year.
A son and a daughter make up a happy family. Lu Jun, Zhou Xia and Lu Guozhong were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
After spending her confinement at the confinement center, Liangxi returned home during the Chinese New Year, and her mother-in-law, Zhou Xia, moved in to take care of the child.
Lu Jun would help with the childcare. Lu Xian was already in kindergarten and had become quite sensible after having a younger sister. Zhou Xia was healthy and Liang Xi was young, and had recovered well from her confinement, so the family was able to cope.
Although there were inevitable frictions between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law because they lived together again, there were no major conflicts overall. A year later, after her daughter Lu Hui was weaned, Zhou Xia moved back and her life returned to normal.
Liang Xi had her second child, and Liang Youyi and Yang Huizhen had just completed their house in Cuiting Community. They received the keys, but since they had no plans to move to the city, the house remained empty.
Probably because Liang Jie's physical condition had improved, he did not suffer from any serious illness, only occasional minor illnesses. This time, Liang Jie attended kindergarten in the town.
After Liang Jie went to kindergarten, Yang Shufen was rejected, and Yang Huizhen was able to manage the household in an orderly manner by herself.
The family of three lived in the town, and their life was easy and convenient, without the need to go to Liangxi at all.
After Liang Jie finished kindergarten, Liang Youyi found time to renovate the house in Cuiting. He figured it would just be a casual place to live, and he'd definitely need to redecorate it when his son got married. He went with a simple, minimalist style, and bought some simple furniture, too, so the total cost was around 150,000 yuan.
The renovated house has been vacant for more than two years, and all the formaldehyde and other substances have definitely dissipated.
Liang Jie graduated from kindergarten, Liang Youyi officially retired, and the family of three moved to the city.
Before retirement, Liang Youyi had paid off the mortgage on his house, and the couple had around 300,000 yuan in savings.
Liang Youyi received a monthly pension of over 10,000 yuan, while Yang Huizhen also received nearly 2,000 yuan. With their financial management, their monthly income was around 15,000 yuan, enough for a normal life, but...
Before Liang Jie was born, Liang Youyi always said that it was up to the child to study. But when Liang Jie really started primary school, other children in the class signed up for interest classes, and Liang Jie also clamored to join the interest classes. How could he not sign up?
If your grades are low and you can't keep up, and you get criticized by the teacher, can you really just leave it alone? Shouldn't you enroll in a remedial class or something?
No way!
Once the cost of education is added, this little money seems to be a bit of a waste, and my son will need money to get married in the future!
Since he didn't have enough money, he could only consider finding a job. However, Liang Youyi was a leader after all, and he was getting older. It was impossible for him to find a high-paying and easy job in a city where he was unfamiliar with the place.
There was no other way. Liang Youyi, who had originally planned to live in the city to enjoy a happy retirement life with his son and wife, was forced to return to the town. He shamelessly used his connections to find a job as an accountant in a factory, earning five or six thousand yuan a month.
Because of his tight financial situation, Liang Youyi couldn't go out to eat at mealtimes. He could still throw his clothes into the washing machine, but as for cooking, he could only learn to make simple dishes like noodles, and go back to his elderly parents in the countryside from time to time to have a meal.
He should be at the age of retirement, but he has to go out to work. He doesn't have a wife to take care of him, and he has to do everything by himself. Liang Youyi's life is not very comfortable, and it can even be said that he feels that life is a bit miserable.
Then, when Liang Jie was in second grade, Liang Xi's grandfather, Liang Youyi's father, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, as he had always done. He would have seizures from time to time, and when they did, he wouldn't recognize anyone, constantly shouting that he wanted to find his wife, son, and daughter, running around everywhere.
Grandma Liang has to farm, do housework and look after the old man all by herself, and she is overwhelmed.
As a son in town, Liang Youyi naturally assumed the responsibility of caring for the two elderly parents. After discussing this with his sister, Liang Youyi, considering he had a son to support and his own financial constraints, ultimately rejected the idea of hiring a nanny. Ultimately, his sister gave the elderly parents 1,000 yuan per month as support, while Liang Youyi moved from town to the countryside to care for them and tend to the farmland.
Even though it may seem like just growing some vegetables, it's not easy when you really do it.
Moreover, from time to time, an old man would go missing. Liang Youyi felt exhausted because he had to go to work and deal with a lot of family matters.
After more than a year of busy and hard life, Yang Huizhen's mother also passed away.
As before, the monthly maintenance fee for Mr. Yang increased by 1,000 yuan.
In this way, with young children to take care of and elderly parents to take care of, Liang Youyi, who should have retired to enjoy a peaceful life, is so busy that he is like a spinning top.
After four years of hard work, Grandma Liang, who was in good health, passed away earlier than Grandpa Liang.
After taking care of Grandma Liang's funeral, Liang Youyi was left alone. It was obviously beyond his ability to take care of his old father who was already severely demented, not to mention that he had to go to work!
I can’t not go to work!
Liang Youyi now truly understood what his colleague said, "Raising a son is like raising a money-eating beast." For some reason, he felt regretful.
But the child has already been born, and it is obviously too late to regret now.
During weekdays at work, Liang Youyi could only leave dinner for the old man and then locked him at home. Less than half a year later, something happened.
Liang Youyi was careless and Old Man Liang disappeared.
The villagers helped to search for him for a long time but could not find him. Two days later, someone saw the old man's body floating in the river near the village.
After worrying all day, Liang Youyi collapsed suddenly after receiving such bad news.
Because his income dropped significantly after retirement, Liang Youyi had long stopped receiving treatment from the old Chinese doctor. After all, treatment is a huge expense, and the hard work in recent years has drained Liang Youyi's well-maintained body again. The huge emotional fluctuations, coupled with overwork, caused the 65-year-old Liang Youyi to suffer another cerebral infarction.
When Liang Youyi fell down, the villagers rushed to call an ambulance for him. Two relatives accompanied him to the hospital, and then quickly called Yang Huizhen.
