Chapter 491 Outsiders
"Sister-in-law, a worker's monthly salary is only 28.5 yuan, and you asked me to give my mother 20 yuan a month for retirement. Sister-in-law, you really calculated it clearly."
Fan Jianguo smiled with sharp eyes.
Wu Jinai blushed. She knew that she couldn't pursue this matter too closely or she would not be able to withstand it if someone did.
"It's not that you are capable, Uncle. I just want Mom to have a better life, eat well, dress well, and show that we are filial children."
"Sister-in-law, I appreciate your kindness, but I won't bother you with the care of our mother. I married my new daughter-in-law. Since she has entered our family, she has to take care of my mother. No one in the world can resist this filial piety. Who made her meet a terrible man like me?
It doesn't make sense to forget your mother after marrying a wife. I'm not that kind of person! If the new wife is not happy, then I, your brother, will have to remain single. I don't care. My mother is in good health and doesn't need anyone to take care of her. At most, she can only do some cleaning.
How difficult is it? Even if my new wife is too busy, I can spend 10 yuan to hire a nanny to take care of my mother. She will take good care of her and save money compared to you, sister-in-law.
It's not easy for me to earn money, and I'm going to get married soon, so it's not appropriate to spend lavishly. I don't have the heart of my elder brother and sister-in-law, and I can't ask them to give me 20 yuan for my retirement, but you guys should not treat other people as fools.
Don't use the excuse of being filial to the elderly to make money. My money didn't come from the wind, it was earned through hard work. It's really disheartening to hear this."
Fan Jianguo's barrage of sarcasm immediately made Fan Jianfeng lose face.
"We didn't mean that. You opened a store and got tens of thousands of dollars in rent. You still make money easily in the city. It's not your due to spend a little more on mom.
If you don't want to, forget it. I'm not forcing you to pay the money. You're making it sound like your brother is just coveting your money."
Fan Jianfeng tried to save himself.
Jiang Xiaoxiao burst out laughing, and everyone present couldn't help but sigh. No wonder they say a dragon gives birth to nine sons, and each son is different. Look at this son, there is really a big difference between him and his son.
Fan Jianfeng was also embarrassed by the shame.
"Xiaoxiao, please watch your attitude. After all, I am your elder."
Shouted sternly.
Song Moting glanced at his uncle and said, "Uncle, I don't mean anything else. I just think that elders should behave like elders. After all, there are so many younger people in this house. What aunt said really opened our eyes."
Wu Jinai glared, "Oh, now, this nephew's son-in-law is more powerful than us elders. I have never seen an outsider who is the king in our family. This is our Fan family's business. What does it have to do with you, the Song family? If you want to show off, go back to your Song family."
Fan Xiuying stood up and said, "My son-in-law has become an outsider at this time. How could he not be an outsider when we asked him to find someone and a car to bring our father back? When we were handling the funeral and asked him to buy things, cigarettes and alcohol, why didn't you say that my son-in-law was an outsider?
If an outsider is willing to help our family so much, then this outsider is much better than the Fan family."
The old lady slapped the bed and said, "Alright, stop arguing! Boss, Boss and his wife, what do you mean by that? Are you holding this meeting today and saying these things to break away from your family?"
And the eldest wife, are you talking like a human being? How did Xiao Song become an outsider? It was he, an outsider, who carried me out of the tunnel. It was he, an outsider, who chiseled open the stone wall and saved my life.
It was this outsider who took care of your father's funeral. Are you being heartless by saying this now? What do you mean? Seeing that your father is gone, an old woman like me is a nuisance to you, so you are saying this to piss me off to death."
The old lady was really furious.
The old lady has never been so angry in her life. Her husband's body is still warm, and now the eldest son's wife has started to play tricks on him.
This will never end.
In the past, they endured and gave in to each other because he was their eldest son after all. Even if their daughter-in-law was not a good person, they still had their son.
It wouldn't be too much for the old couple to give a little subsidy to the eldest child.
After all, the eldest child has the hardest life among the children, and they often tell themselves that he is their son.
There is no way to tell whether they are good or bad. There is no way to educate them now. We can only try to treat them equally and not hurt the children's feelings.
But I didn't expect that the boss would become even more extreme.
My father just passed away, and now I start to make trouble.
When Fan Jianfeng saw that his mother got angry, he glared at Wu Jinai and asked, "Do you know how to speak?"
I know that the people I cannot afford to offend the most in this family are Song Moting and Jiang Xiaoxiao. If I say this now, wouldn't that cut off the chance of any relatives visiting me in the future?
Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't say anything the whole time, not because she didn't want to defend Song Moting, but because she knew how much his parents and grandmother defended Song Moting.
She didn't even need to open her mouth.
"Mom, the child's mother just has a bad mouth, please don't mind it. Xiao Song, don't take it to heart. Uncle knows that you are a good child, and everything here depends on you. This time, uncle is grateful to you from the bottom of his heart. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would... Anyway, no matter what, uncle understands."
Song Moting didn't say anything, mainly because if he opened his mouth, he might push this person upside down and he wouldn't be able to get down from the wall.
No matter how much he dislikes giving face to the monk, he has to give face to the Buddha. For the sake of the old lady and Fan Xiuying in the room, he cannot do this.
After all, he has no right to do this. This is the old lady's biological son, and it is not for him, as a junior, to criticize whether he is good or bad.
"Okay, big brother, stop being so polite. Mom's matter is settled. She will still live with me. But you should still list the expenses for Dad's funeral. This is a matter between us brothers. There's no reason to let Xiao Song pay for it.
How can I ask my grandson-in-law to pay for it? I don't want to be talked about. The Fan family can't afford to lose face. I don't want any of the gifts from the villagers. Do you think this is appropriate?"
Fan Jianguo's concession was the biggest one. He could have refused to let his eldest brother's family pay a penny, but after thinking about his eldest brother and his wife's personalities, he realized that if he said so, they might even go even further.
Besides, it is impossible for me to be the only son to show filial piety to the elderly. Although my eldest brother's family is in trouble, I have tried my best to help them. But it does not mean that I have to bear everything myself. Once this opening is made.
There will be no end to it from now on.
