Chapter 434 Everyone Hates Mother-in-Law (2)
However, after both children went to college, Liu Zongqiang and Zhao Shuwen changed their attitude and immediately drove the original owner back to the countryside, under the pretext that the countryside was suitable for retirement.
The original owner had worked hard to raise two children, and she wanted to stay with her son in her old age, didn't she? Unfortunately, her two grandchildren had grown up, and her usefulness was gone. Instead, she suffered from various physical illnesses due to overwork, and it cost a lot of money to see a doctor and take medicine every month. How could Liu Zongqiang and Zhao Shuwen let such a waste stay at home? Naturally, they kicked her out of the house without hesitation.
The original owner died not long after returning to the countryside. One reason was that she was ill and had no money for treatment; the other was that her son was unfilial, which was too much of a blow to her. She was heartbroken and wanted to die.
But ironically, not long after her death, the old house in the countryside was demolished, and Liu Zongqiang got a large sum of money, and immediately had the houses his two grandsons wanted to buy for their marriages. He lived an easy life. When he was young, his parents did their best to buy him a house; after he had children in middle age, he had the original owner's free and easy-to-use nanny mother-in-law to take care of him wholeheartedly; when he was old and wanted to buy a house for his son to get married, the annoying mother-in-law died in time, and the inherited old house was demolished, so he got the house easily.
It's just a pity for the original owner, who worked hard all her life for her son and grandson, but ended up alone and miserable. She was truly a candle person who burned herself to light up others.
When his son Zhao Shuwen heard Shi Chu say that he was going back to the countryside, he immediately raised his eyebrows and said sarcastically, "You're going back to the countryside tomorrow? Are you willing to go back?"
"What's there to be reluctant about? I feel much more comfortable back in the countryside. Anything I do is better than serving you here." Shi Chu said coldly. Zhao Shuwen obviously saw that the original owner wanted to stay, so she was fearless.
Zhao Shuwen sneered, thinking that Shi Chu was really making fun of her, threatening her by asking her to go back to the countryside and not help take care of the children, so she said, "You can go back if you want, but I tell you, if you don't want to help me take care of the children now, then when you are old, I won't serve you. Don't say I am unfilial and heartless then."
Shi Chu nodded immediately: "Okay, I don't ask you to take care of me when I'm old. As long as you pay the maintenance fee, I won't bother you even if I die."
Just as Zhao Shuwen was about to talk about alimony, she saw Shi Chu say with a half-smile, "Why, I have fulfilled my obligation to support Liu Zongqiang, paid for his college tuition, and used my life savings to pay for the down payment for his house. You can't say that he has no obligation to support me, right?"
Zhao Shuwen was Liu Zongqiang's college classmate. She had received higher education and naturally knew common sense about the law. Liu Zongqiang must of course support his parents who had fulfilled their support obligations, so she had no words to refute. Her face was extremely ugly, but she still suppressed her anger and said, "Okay, we will pay alimony, but when you are old and paralyzed in bed, and you don't even have a sip of water to drink, don't regret not taking care of our children now!"
Shi Chu gave her a mocking look and said, "Based on your current attitude, I don't think that if I help you raise the children, you will take care of me when I am old."
Wasn’t that the original owner? She raised two children with all her heart, but was driven back to the countryside. When she died, she had no descendants by her side, and was only discovered by the villagers after she had started to stink.
Zhao Shuwen wanted to say something, but Liu Zixuan in her arms burst into tears. Just as she was about to call her mother-in-law, she immediately remembered what she had just said, so she had to get up and comfort the child herself.
But since the child was born, she had not taken care of the child at all except for feeding, so she was a little at a loss. Liu Zixuan was full of energy and his crying was loud, which could easily make people irritable. Zhao Shuwen just coaxed him for a while, but his crying made her yell impatiently: "Stop crying, shut up!"
Shi Chu seemed not to have heard it and went back to his own small room to pack up the original owner's things. This small room was actually a storage room. The room was small and dark, without even a window, and was very cramped.
There was only room for a bunk bed and a small cabinet, and there was no space even for a wardrobe. Of course, the original owner didn't have a wardrobe. In fact, if she hadn't had to take care of the children, Liu Zongqiang wouldn't even buy her a bunk bed, let alone a family.
Shi Chu was packing up his things amid Liu Zixuan's crying. No matter how loud Liu Zixuan's crying or Zhao Shuwen's scolding were, Shi Chu turned a deaf ear to them.
Don't think that Liu Zixuan is pitiful. In fact, he is also a conscienceless ungrateful person. He was spoiled by Liu Zongqiang and Zhao Shuwen, and he saw his family members disrespecting the original owner, so he followed suit. He didn't regard the original owner as his grandmother at all, but as a nanny and servant who could be beaten and scolded at will. When he went to college and knew that the original owner was sent back to her hometown, he didn't object at all, and even agreed with his parents' behavior of driving the original owner away, because the original owner was old and not as agile as before, and couldn't complete his orders efficiently, so he disliked the original owner very much.
Why keep such an ungrateful person? It's better to keep a piece of barbecued pork than him. At least barbecued pork is edible. Keeping such a ruthless person will do more harm than good.
So even if Liu Zixuan is crying miserably now, Shi Chu can turn a blind eye and not whitewash him by saying that he is just a one-month-old baby who doesn't understand anything. He shouldn't be blamed for his past life's sins in this life...
To this kind of thought, Shi Chu just wanted to say, "Bah!" He was himself in the previous life, but he is not himself in this life? Shouldn't he redeem himself in this life for the sins of the previous life? Shi Chu is not such a kind-hearted saint. Besides, she didn't do anything to him. She just stopped taking care of him. Can she be blamed for this?
At this time, Liu Zongqiang finally came back from get off work. As soon as he entered the door, he heard his son crying and Zhao Shuwen's roar, and frowned: "What's going on? The child is crying so hard? Mom! Hurry up and stop the child from crying. What are you doing..."
Look, the original owner's status is not even as good as a nanny. A nanny can earn a lot of money every month, and the owner is afraid that he will not take good care of him and will respect him very much. But here, the original owner not only has no salary, but also has to suffer.
"Why are you calling me mom? Was this my child? Isn't my biological mom coaxing me? Don't call me for everything. You should be independent and self-reliant." Shi Chu said coldly to Liu Zongqiang.
Liu Zongqiang was a little unresponsive and stunned for a while when he suddenly heard his mother, who had always obeyed him, suddenly change her attitude and became rude to him.
But he soon reacted and understood the meaning of her words. His face darkened and he stared straight into Shi Chu's eyes and said, "Mom, do you mean you don't want to help me take care of the children? Do you want to go back to your hometown in the countryside?" His tone was threatening, and he obviously knew that returning to the countryside was the original owner's weak point.
It turned out that these people knew her weakness, so they used it to exploit the original owner.
But this was the original owner's weakness, not Shi Chu's.
