There are many elderly people in society who are afraid of falling because of the misfortune that may result from falling. Chen Shunqi, 68, is a lonely elderly man whose wife has passed away and his children are busy with their own lives. Chen Shunqi broke his leg in an accident and was admitted to the hospital.
Although the children have their own things to do, they are all trying their best to take care of Chen Shunqi during his hospitalization. However, when her daughter returned to visit Mr. Chen, she raised questions about the cost of medicine. She believes that the cost should be shared equally between the siblings.
This conflict eventually led to an argument, which Chen Shunqi believes is not the true filial piety of his daughter, but the influence of Western ideas. He felt that his daughter only cared about money and neglected his son's care for him in his daily life. However, in the end, the daughter gave in, saying that the matter would not be an example.
Although this family dispute was temporarily resolved, it left unpleasant memories in Chen Shunqi's heart. The story provokes a different understanding of filial piety and makes people think about the balance between money and emotions in the family.
