"ah?"
Gu Nini was dumbfounded. She said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Yichen, did you really tell your parents that?"
"They have no objections?"
After all, in her view, their son used to send them 20 yuan every month, but now that he's getting married, he's reduced that amount.
No wonder they're not happy; they're probably cursing her, their future daughter-in-law, in their hearts.
Fu Yichen said, "My parents have no objections."
"It's your eldest brother and sister-in-law, and your second brother and sister-in-law who have objections, right?" Gu Nini added.
Fu Yichen didn't expect Gu Nini to guess this.
He said somewhat embarrassedly, "Um... Nini, if they have opinions, that's their business. Before I got married, I would subsidize them whatever expenses they needed, and I didn't want to argue with them. But after I get married, I definitely can't do things the way I used to."
“They have hands and feet of their own and can earn money to support themselves.”
"It doesn't make sense for me to be the one to help them all."
Gu Nini was surprised that Fu Yichen was so clear-headed. She said, "Yichen, your clear-headedness really makes me look at you in a new light."
"Here's what you'll do: you should send 20 yuan back to your parents every month, and then have them tell everyone that they only sent 10 yuan back. That way, they can save some money and avoid being tricked out of their money by your older brothers in various ways."
“Although you are brothers, as you said, they have hands and feet, why can’t they support themselves? Why do they have to rely on you to support them?”
“You’ll only spoil them by doing this. When you stop giving them money later, they’ll blame you and think you’re an ingrate.”
"They might even be giving you the cold shoulder now, feeling that you've let them down?"
Fu Yichen trembled.
He never expected Gu Nini to say something like that.
She still made herself send 20 yuan back to her parents every month.
She even guessed that her older brothers had called her an ingrate.
This inexplicably touched and moved him.
His gaze softened as he looked at Gu Nini: "Nini, thank you."
Gu Nini smiled and said, "Why thank me? It wasn't easy for your parents to raise you. Now that you're capable, you should naturally take good care of them."
"However, I heard from my mother that your parents are often bossed around by your eldest and second sisters-in-law, so I guess they're not living a very good life. You can decide how to handle this yourself."
“If they keep being soft-hearted and always let themselves be manipulated, then if you send 20 yuan back home every month, it will probably all end up being spent by them, and your parents will probably only get a fraction of it.”
"So, you need to have a good talk with your parents about this."
"Of course, if you want to continue supporting your older brothers and the like, then disregard what I said."
After all, this isn't how you help others.
Fu Yichen's current behavior clearly shows that he has raised a group of lazy and good-for-nothing people.
Now that he doesn't want to give back that much money, they are immediately unhappy and start yelling at Fu Yichen, thinking he's an ingrate.
This is a classic example of taking Fu Yichen's efforts for granted.
This is treating him like a blood bank, completely exploiting him.
If Fu Yichen remains obstinate, then she won't bother with him anymore.
Upon hearing Gu Nini's words, Fu Yichen immediately said, "Nini, don't worry, I'll talk to my parents properly when I get back. If they're still soft-hearted, then I'll send 10 yuan back to them every month. If they're more hard-hearted, then I'll do as you said."
"As for my eldest and second eldest brothers, I've seen through them now, and I definitely won't act like I used to."
"Besides, I don't owe them anything."
