I am a 60-year-old retired worker named Li Fang. I have a son, Xiao Ming, who is 35 years old and works as a salesman in a ** company. Two years ago, Xiao Ming married a rich girl, Xiaohong.
The three of us sat down in the house to drink tea and chat. Xiaohong looked at me and asked with some confusion: "Mom, how much is your pension this month?"Can you meet your daily expenses?”
As soon as my mind was hot, I casually said, "1,800 yuan a month." ”
What?!Xiao Ming's eyes widened in surprise, "Mom, why is your pension so low?"How can this be enough to spend!”
As soon as I saw Xiao Ming's reaction, I knew that I had made a mistake, and quickly explained: "Son, don't get excited, I just said something wrong." My pension is actually 3,850 yuan a month. ”
Then why did you just say that there was only 1800?Xiao Minghu asked suspiciously.
Xiao Ming breathed a long sigh of relief, and his expression softened: "Mom, you scared me!."I thought your pension was really that little, then I have to worry about your pension every day!”
Xiaohong pouted on the side: "Mom, you are too unrigorous." When people ask you about business, how can you talk nonsense!”
I was full of apologies and immediately confessed my mistake: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was negligent in my words." I promise that I will be cautious in my future words and will not talk nonsense again. ”
Xiao Ming nodded: "Forget Mom, you can't be blamed for this." Actually, you don't have to work part-time to earn extra income, Xiaohong and I have earned it.
I was full of apologies and immediately confessed my mistake: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was negligent in my words." I promise that I will be cautious in my future words and will not talk nonsense again. ”
Xiao Ming nodded: "Forget Mom, you can't be blamed for this." In fact, you don't have to work part-time to earn extra income, Xiaohong and I have earned enough to support our family, so you can retire with peace of mind. ”
I listened to Xiao Ming's words, and my heart was moved. As a son, it is not easy for him to work so hard all these years and take care of me, an old lady.
Ah, Mom, that's what you're talking about. Xiao Ming smiled and explained, "At that time, Xiaohong's parents took 1 million bride price directly as a down payment, so we only borrowed 1 million. And they said that this also counts as Xiaohong's dowry, and we don't have to pay it back in the future. ”
I was relieved. It seems that I was misremembered, they didn't borrow that much money.
At this time, Xiaohong's mobile phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and said in surprise, "Oops, my dad called!".Then hurriedly picked up **.
Xiao Ming and I looked at each other, wondering if it would be Xiaohong's father calling to ask about the house. If you really press us back, then it's going to be a problem.
But to our surprise, after chatting for a while, Xiaohong said happily: "My parents said that I should deal with the ** of the insurance company they bought!."The market value is now over 100 million!”
Oh my God, our family is almost developed now!Xiao Ming said happily.
When I heard this, my heart was overjoyed. It seems that the children have grown up and have the ability to create wealth and solve problems on their own. I can leave the affairs of the house to them with peace of mind.
In the past, I used to worry that Xiao Ming was under too much pressure;I'm afraid that Xiaohong's life comes from a rich family, and she won't be able to take care of me, an old woman. But now it seems that these worries of mine are completely unfounded.
I decided that I would learn to let go in the future and believe that Xiao Ming and Xiao Hong have the ability to take on this home. I just need to retire with peace of mind and help bring my future grandchildren.
Since then, I have officially entered retirement. I spend my leisure at home taking care of flowers and plants and practicing calligraphyXiao Ming and Xiao Hong also often drove me out for a walk.
