Brother Liang was silent for a while. "I have to go to work. Your sister-in-law is not in good health. You know our family's situation. How about we send Dad to a nursing home?"
Liang Lijun looked at her elder brother with a cold smile, "Let's not talk about the cost. If you're not afraid of being gossiped about, then go ahead and give it to him. He raised us, but when he got sick, you couldn't even take care of him for a day. You're really a qualified son."
Brother Liang's face flushed red. "If I had the time, I would definitely be willing to take care of Dad."
Liang Lijun crossed her arms and said, "Anyone can talk a good game. Even though Cao Jun and I don't have time, we still serve him every day, don't we?"
Brother Liang snorted coldly, "They're really good at taking care of us, even taking us to the hospital."
"If you think I'm not taking good care of you, then you take good care of him! You clean up after Dad's poop and pee every day, and when Dad has an upset stomach, you'll be covered in poop too. Let's see if you can still say that then." Liang Lijun didn't believe that her brother, Liang Guangming, could take good care of her in his current state.
Brother Liang felt nauseous just thinking about it; he definitely couldn't do serving people.
"How much money does Dad have left? We don't have time, maybe we should hire a couple more people to take care of him?"
"Dad gave all his money to that old lady. When Dad got sick, the old lady ran away, taking all the gold and money with her. There's not a single penny left in the house," Liang Lijun lied through her teeth.
Brother Liang's eyes widened. "That old lady took them all away?"
Liang Lijun shrugged. "You know how Dad treats that old lady. He's practically transferred the house to her. I don't even know where she's from or what her identity is. I can't even find anyone to ask her for it."
Brother Liang looked pained. "Didn't you ask Dad? Our family must have accumulated several hundred thousand over the years, right?"
“Dad’s mouth is crooked and his eyes are slanted, so he can’t speak. How can I ask him? You, as his son, don’t even know how much wealth we have. How am I supposed to know?” Liang Lijun buried her eldest brother’s name, not mentioning that she had taken all of the old lady’s gold and money for herself, leaving the old lady to take the blame.
"Then let's call the police. We have to get our money back no matter what," Brother Liang said, not wanting the old lady to get away with it.
“Don’t you know how Dad treats that old lady? He’d give her the whole house. Do you think he’ll cooperate if we call the police?” Liang Lijun was already prepared.
Brother Liang sighed. His sister was right. Even if they called the police, his father wouldn't cooperate. It would be a waste of effort.
“Young female caregivers generally won’t take care of an old man like Dad who can’t take care of himself. They’re too old to do it. If we were to hire a male caregiver, the salary alone would be more than ten thousand yuan a month, plus room and board, and it would be hard to find one. Hospital caregivers don’t work at home; they earn more at the hospital,” Liang Lijun continued.
"So expensive? A caregiver earns more than 10,000 yuan a month?" Brother Liang couldn't believe it.
"If I offered you over ten thousand, would you be willing to do this job?" Liang Lijun countered.
Brother Liang, even if you give him 50,000, he still can't do it.
“It’s not just the caregiver; Dad also needs to take medication and undergo rehabilitation training. His salary isn’t even enough for him,” Liang Lijun continued.
Brother Liang remained silent. If they were to hire a caregiver, he and his sister would have to pay for it, and he was already under a lot of pressure.
Cao Jun, who had been listening outside, came in at that moment. "Brother, Lijun, how's Dad? He just finished cleaning up the house."
