Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Mother Xue smiled bitterly: "You are happy, but we are no longer happy."

Cheng Tianyuan was a little confused and asked, "What are you unhappy about?"

"I don't want to be taken care of by you!" Mother Xue shook her head and sighed: "Every day, I have you hanging around us elderly people..."

Cheng Tianyuan burst into laughter: "Mom, didn't you just say that? We are all old people too. We now take care of each other and keep each other company. We are all old, what can we do?"

Mother Xue said: "You can do a lot of things! If we weren't dragging you down, you could travel and enjoy life, help your children take care of your grandchildren, and even make a lot of money!"

Cheng Tianyuan's intuition was very funny, so he asked: "A lot of things? Mom, are you sure? At my age, can I still make a lot of money? If I apply for a security guard job at my age, people won't accept it, because they think I'm too old. The epidemic outside is not over yet. There are viruses everywhere, where can we travel? If we get sick, our lives may not be guaranteed, so what about traveling and enjoying it!"

Mother Xue couldn't help but muttered: "No - can't you still help young people take care of their children?"

"They don't like it." Cheng Tianyuan told the truth: "Today's young people dislike the older generation for not being able to teach children and doting on their children. If possible, try not to let the elderly take care of them. Besides, the elders from the second family are all studying. , wherever we are needed. An An always takes care of Xiaozhe by herself, and you all know that."

Mother Xue said "Hey!" and said: "You can fool me! I am old, not old and confused!"

Cheng Tianyuan laughed.

Father Xue on the side listened thoughtfully and gestured with his hands.

"Growing old is indeed a drag on our children... Fortunately, when we are old, you will all retire. If you are still in your prime and still have to work hard to raise your children, we will never let you accompany us. "

Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but ask, "How will you live your life if you don't let us accompany you?"

Mother Xue immediately replied: "Send us to a nursing home!"

Cheng Tianyuan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it: "What a crooked idea! What is the purpose of raising children? Isn't it just so that when you get too old, there will be someone around to serve you with tea and water?"

"Then - there are times when there is no choice!" Dad Xue said: "Young people really can't spare the time, so it's not good for them to give up their lives and take care of the elderly. The elderly will eventually have to embark on this path, and young people will They all still have to live, their days are still long!”

Mother Xue whispered: "Isn't it just for this kind of elderly people that people build nursing homes? If the family can't take care of them, they can only send them to the nursing home to wait for death."

"Our family is not like this!" Cheng Tianyuan analyzed: "When we were in our prime, you were all in good health and could take care of yourself. It is only now that you move more slowly and need our help. In fact, you are like this He doesn’t need us to attend him all the time, and he can eat and go to the bathroom by himself, so he is still taking care of himself.”

Dad Xue smiled bitterly: "Where! You don't know how to cook, do you? You don't know how to clean, do you? I have to rely on you for all this!"

"Wrong, wrong." Cheng Tianyuan shook his head: "Ling Ling and I don't have to cook, don't we still have chefs? We don't have to do hygiene, there are so many servants inside and outside. We just need to accompany you, nothing else You don’t have to do it. Why do you have to rely on us? You have enough money to hire many nannies to take care of you. Even without us, you still don’t have to go to a nursing home and you can still live a comfortable life."

Xue's father and mother couldn't help laughing when they saw that he had reasons for everything he said. Cheng Tianyuan pretended to have a sullen face and said in a deep voice: "You are not allowed to say anything that will hinder your children in the future. Dad, Mom, you raised your children, helped protect your grandchildren, and even helped take care of your great-grandchildren. You have worked hard all your life, and you will grow old." We need to take care of you when you are in trouble. Don’t talk like you have done anything to regret us, or talk about whether it is a burden or not. Aren’t they all what we should do?”

Xue's father and mother nodded: "Okay, okay! I won't say it anymore."

Cheng Tianyuan smiled and said: "Dad, Mom, I'm going to take a look at Lingling."

"Okay." Xue's mother waved her hand: "Go ahead and let her drink more ginger water to avoid catching a cold."

Cheng Tianyuan answered.

Father Xue looked at his son-in-law's leaving figure and smiled happily.

"Ayuan is really a considerate and good boy..."

"Return a child?" Xue's mother teased: "He has been a grandfather for many years! Can you still call him 'child'?"

Dad Xue laughed loudly and defended: "At my age, he is just a child!"

Mother Xue was also very pleased and whispered: "Whether he treats Mr. Cheng and Mr. Cheng or us, he treats us equally and is generally filial. Unfortunately... they are not as lucky as us. We enjoy more care of our children and grandchildren than they do. , and they are better at tossing people.”

"Don't say that." Father Xue reminded: "Ling Ling and A Yuan may get angry again when they hear it later."

Mother Xue sighed: "I just suddenly felt something."

"What are you thinking!" Father Xue scolded: "If we can live one more day, we can be happy one more day, isn't that bad? Listen to what you said! What did A Yuan say just now? We have professional chefs Yes, servants do the housework. We don’t have to wash our clothes, mop the floor, or cook the food. When food comes, we open our mouths and when clothes come, we stretch out our hands. Isn’t that good? Don’t you want to live such a good life? You still want to go to heaven. ?”

"Yes." Xue's mother retorted funny: "I'm tired of living, I don't want to live anymore, I just want to go to heaven, isn't that okay? Anyway, you have to die early and die late. If it drags down your children too much, it's better to leave earlier to save the children. I'm tired and tired, and I feel resentful in my heart."

Father Xue glared at her and whispered: "What nonsense are you talking about... Lingling and Ayuan are not like that."

"Of course I know that." Mother Xue said depressedly, "But we also have to be a little self-aware."

Dad Xue stopped: "Don't talk nonsense, there is no need for such self-awareness! The longer we live, the happier the children will be!"

"Haha!" Mother Xue laughed and teased: "I think you have lived for too long, your face has become wrinkled and thick, and you dare to say anything! Who do you think you are? Are you a sweet potato? I wish you lived a long time. A little? Pull it down!"

"I - I'm really right!" Xue's father explained: "We are not the kind of old people who deliberately torment our children. We will never let the children do it if we can do it ourselves. We have also helped young people, not that kind of people. A selfish miser who only cares about himself and never gives anything to his children. These emotions are inherently interactive. We love them, and they love us - that's the way it has to be." (End of Chapter)
