"Comrade, you don't have to go. Comrade Li Daren asked for leave after receiving his salary."
"Auntie, look, this comrade works in the same workshop as your son. Even he said that your son took his wages today. Why don't you go ask your son?"
"Yes, yes, I saw it too. It was really your son who came to collect his salary today."
"I saw it, too."
When the lady who was causing trouble heard what everyone said, her face turned very ugly, and she pushed the onlookers away and left.
"What's going on?"
"That's right, why did you leave?"
Seeing that there was nothing exciting to do anymore, everyone started queuing up again. Of course, there were also those who were curious, so they asked a few people who worked in the same workshop as Li Daren.
"Let me tell you, this old woman is no good."
"What, what? Tell me more specifically!"
After several people told their stories, everyone present knew that this old lady had two sons. The eldest son was Li Daren, who worked in a workshop in a textile factory, and the younger son was a temporary worker in a timber factory.
As the saying goes, the youngest son and the eldest grandson are the lifeblood of an old man. Old Mrs. Li has loved her youngest son the most since he was a child, and she always saves any delicious food for him.
When the two sons grew up, they both had no jobs, but the eldest son was capable and through his own efforts he got a job in a textile factory and became a regular worker. The younger son also couldn't find a job, so the old lady had no choice but to spend money to buy him a temporary job.
Logically speaking, a family with two workers should have a good life, but the bad thing is that the old lady controls the family. The old lady collects the wages of both sons, but privately, the old lady will give some subsidies to the younger son, but no one knows the exact amount of the subsidies.
The two sons got married one after another, and then had children. The eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to two daughters in a row, and the youngest daughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat grandson as soon as she came home. This made the old lady's heart even more biased.
She treated her eldest son's family very badly and even wanted her eldest son to give his job to his younger brother, but her eldest son refused. She even threatened to split up the family, which finally made the old lady quiet down.
The eldest son wanted to control his salary himself, but the old lady used the excuse that her son was unfilial and kept using the eldest son's household registration to collect his salary. The eldest son had no choice.
Who would have known that this time, his daughter-in-law suffered heavy bleeding during childbirth and asked the old lady to pay for her to go to the hospital. However, the old lady said that there was no money at home and all the money had been spent.
If Li Daren had not asked his colleague for help, he might have lost his wife and children. This immediately angered this honest and loyal man, so he collected his salary early this morning and directly returned the money to his colleague.
The people who were talking just now were the ones who lent money to Li Daren yesterday.
"This old lady is such a scoundrel. She actually watched her daughter-in-law and grandson die without helping them."
Then these people talked about some other things. It was all because the old lady favored her youngest son and used all the money from her eldest son to subsidize her youngest son. The youngest son's family ate greasy food, while the eldest son's family were all pale and thin.
"I heard that the old lady didn't want to spend any money at all, and wanted to leave the money to her eldest grandson."
"Oh my, this old lady is really biased to the extreme."
"That's right, isn't the eldest son his biological son?"
"This old lady will cause trouble when she returns."
"Let me tell you, just split up the family."
"How could it be that easy? Li Daren is a regular employee, earning ¥37.50 a month. How could the old lady be willing to let him go?"
"Hey, filial piety is greater than heaven. If the old lady refuses to divide the family property, it will be really difficult to deal with."
While Lin Siya was busy with her work and eating melon, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that every family has its own problems.
