An Bing and the others kowtowed mechanically, and in the end, An Bing didn't spend a single penny.
After everything was over, Anqi looked at her older brother, who had aged a lot over the years and lived a muddled life, and felt helpless.
In the days that followed, this older brother worked himself to the bone but couldn't gain the approval of his family. They seemed to only see him as a tool to make money. Angie didn't know if this older brother regretted it.
He treated his mother very badly back then, and now his grandson is doing the same thing to him.
"Big brother, you should go back and rest. Mom's matter has been taken care of. She said that the three of us can live in this house. When the three of us are gone, we can leave it to the village."
She said that even if she left, this would still be our home, and if we ever had nowhere to go or felt like coming home, we could come back. This is your key.
Anqi gave the key to Anbing, even though Mom had said there wasn't one for the eldest brother.
But she still gave one to her older brother. Seeing his dejected appearance, she felt that nothing else mattered. In the end, she felt sorry for her older brother.
"Really?" An Bing looked up, his bloodshot eyes filled with tears. He looked at An Qi in disbelief. "Mom really wants to give it to me? An Qi, if I told you I regret it, would you believe me?"
Back then, I felt like I was the eldest son, the big brother, and that since Mom was getting old, I should be the one in charge of the family. I should be the one making decisions, and Mom should listen to whatever I said. I felt like I was doing it all for her own good.
If she doesn't listen, then she's being unreasonable and doesn't know how to understand me.
At that time, he really felt that he was in charge.
“I started threatening my mom, thinking that if I said that, she would give in.”
I never imagined that Xiao Bao would become like this after seeing my behavior.
I never imagined that 80,000 yuan would change my life.
Do you think that in the future, Xiao Bao might also wish for me to die sooner, and wouldn't care about me anymore?
Anqi didn't know what to say. The answer was obvious without even thinking. As for Xiaobao these days, it was indescribable. Everyone could only shake their heads when they saw him. All he did was play games all day. He called his older brother by his first name and yelled at him, showing absolutely no respect.
"Brother, instead of expecting how others will treat you, you should think about your future. The saying 'raising children to provide for old age' is outdated. You should think about what you'll do in the future."
Buy some retirement insurance, and you'll have money to receive every month, which will also provide for your living expenses. Take advantage of the fact that you can still earn money now and plan for the future.
As his younger sister, I can only offer one suggestion: if he wants to believe it, then believe it; if he doesn't, that's his own business.
"I haven't decided yet, we'll see when the time comes."
Anguo has been doing alright these past few years. Seeing his boss like this, he secretly chuckled to himself. Serves him right for being so smug.
"Big brother and second sister, I have something to do, so I'll head back first. Call me if you need anything. Big brother, if you have any difficulties, don't be shy, just tell me and I'll transfer you some money."
He chuckled to himself, but he never imagined that An Bing would actually get into trouble.
"No need." An Bing's face darkened. This An Guo was doing it on purpose. Even if he didn't have money, he wouldn't come to him.
"Okay, then I'll be going."
To be honest, Anguo's family did quite well afterward, and their children were also doing well. They fulfilled their responsibilities to the couple.
Anguo didn't ask for much. He just wanted a monthly allowance. The couple stayed in the village, paid their share on time, and worked hard to contribute to the village. They hoped that even after they died, the village would take care of their funeral arrangements so as not to burden their child and allow them to live a more comfortable life.
I don't have any expectations for my child's future, nor do I interfere. In the end, my child chose the life he/she wanted.
Anqi's family is also very good. The eldest daughter and her husband are loving, and the youngest daughter is focused on her studies, saying that she will come back in the future to repay the village like her grandmother and become someone the village will remember. Today, Mo Yan's story is still circulating in the village.
People say that because of the sweeping reforms implemented by that generation of elderly people, the village might have declined long ago after the old folks left.
Young people have all gone to the city, and no one lives in the village anymore; it will gradually decline.
The village remains beautiful, the villagers are growing up, everyone is earning money, and city dwellers can also come here to find peace and quiet, eat well, have fun, and even take some fresh vegetables home.
To be honest, vegetables grown in farmland are really different from those grown in greenhouses. These are organic vegetables, and the best part is that they're not expensive.
Anqi and her husband later returned to the village. After Anqi's mother-in-law left, they returned to the village and lived a peaceful life, enjoying the warmth and life of everyday existence.
Sometimes they would go out together, travel, see the world, and then come back home to rest for a while.
Anbing was having a very difficult time at this time.
His son often asked him for money, saying he was useless. He couldn't help his child at all, that he was useless in life, and that he might as well be dead.
Even Xiao Bao treated him very badly, calling him an old geezer every day and demanding money from him, otherwise he would abandon him.
Anbing was in a terrible state every day, and sometimes he really wanted to die.
Later, he also saved some money for himself and put it into the village's elderly canteen.
If any elderly person wants to eat there, they just need to pay a small fee each month and come over for three meals a day; they don't need to worry about anything else.
If you get sick, there is a doctor in the village.
These were all ideas proposed by Mo Yan and the others.
Anbing then moved to the village's senior center to live out his retirement, and he ignored them when they came to ask for money again.
Sometimes when my grandson comes, I'll give him some too.
After a while, he ran out of money, and that bastard beat him up and stole all his money.
After being discovered, Anqi and Anguo wanted to teach them a lesson by calling the police, but Anbing disagreed and said to let it go.
Since he said that, they definitely wouldn't care anymore. Then Xiao Bao came and beat him up badly.
It was a very cold day.
It's snowing.
He lay down on the snow and thought, he regretted it, he really regretted it.
If time could be turned back, he wouldn't have done these things. He would have let his grandson see how filial he was to his parents, and perhaps everything would have been different then.
An Bing was discovered a long time ago, but he was rescued after being taken to the hospital.
But his legs were frostbitten.
Now that's even worse, nobody cares about him anymore. In the end, he lived alone in the old house, struggling to survive every day...
He hired a caregiver, but later he ran out of money and died in the old house without anyone knowing.
Of course, his sons and grandsons weren't much better off; they couldn't even support themselves and often went hungry.
When they make money, they eat and drink extravagantly; when they run out of money, they stay home drinking water...
