"Thank you for your hard work, husband!" Liang Lijun said sincerely. She couldn't handle that situation. "Brother, Cao Jun and I have been taking care of Dad for half a month. It's your turn now. After you've finished taking care of Dad for half a month, we'll discuss what to do based on his condition."
Liang Lijun didn't want her older brother to have any contact with their father and wanted to transfer all the family assets to her name, but she couldn't show it now.
"I don't have time," Brother Liang immediately objected. He could smell the stench emanating from Liang Guangming even while sitting by the hospital bed. He couldn't possibly take care of him personally.
Liang Lijun: "We don't have time either. We've been taking care of him for so long, haven't we? If you don't have time, then spend money to hire a caregiver and let Dad stay in the hospital. You take care of him for a month, and I'll take care of him next month."
"I'll go ask the caregiver first," Brother Liang said, getting up and leaving the ward.
Cao Jun asked in a low voice, "What if your older brother really agrees to take turns serving him?"
"No, my sister-in-law is in poor health and takes medicine all year round. My nephew is preparing for graduate school entrance exams. My brother can't afford that much money, and he can't do this job himself." Liang Lijun knows her brother very well.
Cao Jun felt a little relieved.
"What did your mother say?" Liang Lijun frowned; she couldn't serve her for even a minute longer. Someone had to take over immediately.
Cao Jun: "My mom said she'd think about it for two days, which is considered an agreement."
“It’s not like I’m asking her to actually live with my dad. What’s she thinking about? Just send my dad to your mom’s place when he’s discharged. If she’s thinking about us, we’ll suffer,” Liang Lijun said with dissatisfaction.
Cao Jun nodded in agreement. He didn't want to serve her anymore; it would be better to send her to his mother's place, where it would be easier for him to handle.
Brother Liang returned shortly afterward, looking rather unwell.
"How's it going, brother?" Cao Jun asked with a smile.
Brother Liang shook his head. "I never thought that being a caregiver was such a high-paying job. They can take care of several patients in one night, earning several thousand yuan a night. They simply don't want to stay at home."
“Yes, if someone dies, they help carry the body and so on, and they earn even more,” Cao Jun chimed in.
Brother Liang looked at his sister and then at his brother-in-law. “Cao Jun, I really don’t have time. You know our family situation. Your sister-in-law is sick, and our child is in college. I really don’t have the energy to take care of Dad. How about you trouble yourself for a while longer?”
Liang Lijun rolled her eyes. "Big brother, our Cao Jun also has to work. If you don't have time, he does."
Brother Liang chuckled awkwardly, "Cao Jun's unit is more lenient; I really can't get out of my unit."
“Dad isn’t just my dad, why should I take care of him myself?” Liang Lijun protested.
Brother Liang regretted coming today. If he hadn't come, his younger sister would have had to continue taking care of him. He could have come after their father passed away, taken half of the family fortune, and avoided this trouble.
“Don’t say that to Lijun. Big brother also has his difficulties. We are all siblings from the same mother. Let’s help each other out if we can. Big brother, how about this, I’ll take care of Dad for now. You go ahead with your work. If Dad gets better and can take care of himself, then you can take care of him, okay?” Cao Jun spoke very frankly.
Brother Liang was deeply moved. "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Cao Jun. I appreciate it!"
Cao Jun: "We're all family, we can't just see you suffering like this. Brother, if you're busy, go ahead. I'll stay here at the hospital."
"Okay, okay, I really did take leave to come here. I'll come and relieve you when I have time. Thank you for your hard work, brother-in-law." Brother Liang was very happy. This brother-in-law is really great.
