The four brothers He Aiqing, He Aiguo, He Aidang and He Aimin were a little confused when they were called together.
They looked at each other as if asking what was going on.
"Ahem... Sit down, everyone. I called you brothers here today to discuss your parents' retirement."
Third Uncle would cough every few words, as if he was about to die at any moment.
Yet he still acted like a patriarch and spoke harshly to the younger generation.
When He Aiqing heard that they were discussing the retirement of the elderly couple, she instantly lost interest.
Although he is the eldest son, he has provided them with food, clothing and shelter over the years and has long fulfilled his responsibilities as a son.
Not only that, he was the one who supported these brothers' families in the early years.
Now it is time for his three younger brothers to show themselves, so he will not get involved.
So He Aiqing played with Widow Liu's hands in a place where no one could see.
Tian Xiaocui hid behind He Aidang and looked around.
Seeing the two people pulling each other in public, he rolled his eyes, cursed them shamelessly and looked away.
Widow Liu didn't mind and gave Tian Xiaocui a provocative look.
I have to say that Widow Liu's pair of seductive fox eyes are really charming.
Tian Xiaocui became fascinated after just a few glances.
"Have you all gone mute? They are your biological parents, who raised you with great difficulty, helped you find a wife and raise children, and toiled for most of their lives. And now, they're being tossed around like a ball by you. Don't you have anything to say?"
Third Uncle was so angry that he wanted to poke a hole in the floor with his shining crutch.
Tian Xiaocui quickly came to her senses.
A vixen is a vixen, she can seduce any woman's soul.
She had to keep an eye on He Aidang, as she never knew if Widow Liu would hook up with her brother-in-law.
"Aiqing, you are the boss, you speak first."
He Aiqing, who was called out, took a long time to react, hesitating for a long time before saying, "I don't know."
The four grown men lowered their heads and remained silent like quails, leaving the elders and village cadres present speechless.
"Good, very good. The He family is very lucky to have a few losers like you. It's my fault that I didn't lead the He family to a good life and let the branches below become so crooked.
Since you all have no idea, I'll make one for you. Each of you four families will take turns supporting the elderly couple, and each family will live there for three months. Each person will receive 20 kilograms of food per month. If you don't have food, you can pay five yuan in compensation."
"I object. My house was left behind by my deceased father. If he knew I was taking his man and his family back home, he would be so angry that he would crawl out to look for me in the middle of the night."
Widow Liu was the first to jump out.
Just because she can accept He Aiqing doesn't mean she can accept the old couple, Mrs. He.
There are plenty of men. At worst, you can just kick He Aiqing out and find another one. Why should you take on the responsibility of supporting the old couple in their old age for him?
She now deeply regrets getting married.
If she had not been tied to He Aiqing, she could have partied every night and been around a bunch of men.
Why bother hanging yourself on He Aiqing's crooked tree now? That thing is small and doesn't work well.
"Your objection is invalid. You are now the daughter-in-law of the He family. Naturally, you have the obligation to provide for the elderly couple."
"I don't care. I don't agree. If you dare to put someone in my house, He Aiqing, we will divorce immediately. You and your parents can live wherever you want."
I don’t know what words irritated Uncle Qi, but he threw the teacup next to him away.
"Nonsense! Marriage is no joke. You can get married and divorced at will. Do you think this is just a child's play?"
He Aiqing has already left two of them.
If they divorce again, people outside will say that the He family has high standards and is very picky.
How will the younger generations in that clan get married in the future?
"I didn't say I would support his parents when we got married. Anyway, I'm leaving it at that. How you deal with it is your He family's business. If you make me angry, I can stop being their daughter-in-law at any time."
It would be impossible for Widow Liu to have lived safely in the village for so many years without some tricks.
I have seen many storms and waves.
She's not afraid at all of this little scene of people talking loudly and smashing pots and pans.
"Women have long hair but short knowledge. I'm too lazy to tell you, He Aiqing, keep your wife in check. You're in your thirties or forties and you're still so careless every day. You've married three wives, divorced two, and there's still one who can just ride on your head and fart. It's really a waste of your parents' cultivation of you."
"Uncle Qi, you're going too far. They're not my parents alone, so it's not good to keep picking on me. Although I've been away from home these years, I've left a lot of money for them, enough for them to enjoy their old age. Whoever they spend the money on should take care of them in their old age."
Seeing that He Aiqing was unmoved, Uncle Qi turned his attention to the other three.
"Love the country, the party, and the people. What do you think?"
"Seventh Uncle, we have no idea."
"Uncle Qi, our family is really poor. Our children are about to get married, but we keep delaying because we can't afford the betrothal gifts. How can we have the energy to support two elderly people?"
"Seventh Uncle, you know the situation of our family. We can hardly protect ourselves."
The three of them each had their own difficulties.
Luo Quanxiang replied dissatisfiedly, "Why don't you go find He Aihua? The old couple loves her the most. Their pocket money starts at a big black ten. It doesn't make sense for her not to participate in such a big thing as retirement."
He Aiqing's words reminded Luo Quanxiang.
