"Face" is very important, some people do not hesitate to waste money and lose their health for the sake of face, and some people lose their lives for this, my uncle is such a person.
Uncle is a kind, hard-working, but introverted person. He used to be a soldier, and after changing jobs, he worked in the construction team of his hometown, his aunt was a primary school teacher, and the couple were both hardworking and strong people. There are three children with cousins and brothers, so the family has always been relatively wealthy.
But after the cousin got married, life was a little uneven, because the brother-in-law was a woman with a violent personality and greedy for enjoyment. And because the uncle and aunt doted on the cousin, everything in the family was decided by the younger brother and daughter-in-law.
My brother and daughter-in-law are not fuel-efficient lamps, and before they get married, they directly set up washing machines, refrigerators, TVs, etc., in the shopping mall, and let the boss send them home, and naturally the uncle pays for them. At the end of the last century, it was not a small amount to have complete household appliances, and my aunt was unwilling, but my cousin liked it, so the old man had to do it, after all, things were pulled to his own home.
After getting married, my brother and daughter-in-law did not work in the field, eating all kinds of fresh fruits at home, hiding under the air conditioner, and my uncle and aunt carried a medicine cartridge to the field to spray the crops. My cousin was tired from work all day, and when he came home, he wanted to eat a ready-made meal, and his uncle and aunt wanted to complain, but my cousin said: "God is the boss, my daughter-in-law is the second, whoever gives my daughter-in-law anger, I don't want anyone!.""With my cousin to protect them, the two of them can only swallow their anger and work.
Soon there was a boy and a girl, after having a child, the younger brother and daughter-in-law became the Empress Dowager Cixi, pampered, uncle and aunt not only do farm work, but also take care of two children, at that time the aunt had not yet retired, school, home, in the field, and finally had a heart attack, admitted to the hospital, the uncle was angry and quarreled with the brother and daughter-in-law, but I didn't expect the brother and daughter-in-law to dare to beat the uncle.
The neighbors couldn't see it, so they dissuaded her brother and daughter-in-law, she also felt that she had done too much, turned her face and went to work in the county seat, no longer went home, and asked her uncle to buy a house in the county seat, but the aunt couldn't help it, so she had to borrow and buy the existing house.
Then, the two children went to school in the county seat, although the aunt's retirement salary is not low in the countryside, more than 3,000 per month, but she has to pay off the mortgage for her cousin, and she has to take the two children to school every day to cook for the family.
Finally, the two children are older, and they should go home to care for the elderly, but the uncle and aunt are not going back to their hometown, not because they don't want to go back, but because they feel that their son has no face when he comes back. The house in the county is small, and there are six people in a family, either the toilet is not enough, or the bath cannot be washed, and there are constant contradictions of all sizes.
Uncle and aunt are getting old, just think about it, in a long-term depressed living environment, the uncle who is not good at words has esophageal cancer, so his life is even more unsatisfactory, because he has to spend a lot of money to see a doctor, and now the money can only go out and not in, and the two cousins have to take out some money from time to time to see a doctor for their uncle.
After three years of suffering from illness, the lamp finally ran out of oil and my uncle died. Imagine if the grandson was older and the uncle and aunt went back to their hometown to enjoy their old age, wouldn't that life be enjoyable?
After all, the pace of life is slow, there are old neighbors, and the old couple can do whatever they want, so why do they have to guard their son at a young age?If the cousin knows that he feels sorry for his parents, how can the brother-in-law dare to be so arrogant?The cousin is a standard person who married a daughter-in-law and forgot his mother. Therefore, when people reach middle age, they must live the life they want to live, don't take care of other people's emotions, and live for themselves, not for others to see.
