I am a 54-year-old nanny from rural western Sichuan.
In my hometown, there was a neighbor named Qiao Lan, whose husband died of illness.
Qiao Lan has only one son, he is married, but very lazy.
The daughter-in-law and son were reluctant to go out to work, and spent their days in the town's mahjong parlor.
Qiao Lan is not tall, only about 1.5 meters.
She saw all kinds of disagreements between her son and daughter-in-law, but she couldn't do anything about it.
Family life was very difficult, and Qiao Lan began to think about finding a support for her old age.
Not long ago, Qiaolan's husband died, and she married a single man in the village named Peiwen.
Due to his poor family, Pei Wen has never been able to find a wife.
When he reached the age of 50, he just wanted to find a companion to spend the rest of his days with.
Pei Wen still had tens of thousands of yuan on hand, and after marriage, Qiao Lan married him, and her son began to treat him hospitably in order to get money from Pei Wen.
When Qiaolan's son got the money Pei Wen took out, he squandered all the money in the mahjong parlor.
After losing everything, he went to Pei Wen to ask for money, but Pei Wen couldn't make up the money.
Pei Wen is an honest man, and he really has no money to come up with.
Qiao Lan and her son saw that Pei Wen really had no money, so they no longer needed him.
The son often finds fault with his stepfather and argues, and even scolds him to get out.
Pei Wen had nothing to say and was bullied at home.
Qiao Lan's son even beat him and ordered him to leave.
Poor Peiwen, in the end, even lost the money and people, and left Qiaolan's house with only simple luggage.
His departing figure looked very desolate.
Qiaolan did not give up and planned to marry again.
Finally, she was introduced to a sixty-five-year-old man with a pension.
Qiao Lan and her son fancy that the old man has a pension, and they think that with this guarantee, they will live well in the future.
Qiao Lan soon married the old man, and her son asked the old man to sign a marriage certificate with her mother.
However, the old man disagreed, saying that he was over sixty years old and no longer needed a marriage certificate, and he would take good care of Qiaolan.
Qiao Lan wore a bright red dress and married again with radiance.
In those days, Qiao Lan was full of red light and seemed to be living a good life.
She also wears a watch, which she often rolls up to deliberately show its existence.
The old man had two sons, both of whom worked in other places and bought a house and a car.
The old man's home has also been renovated, and compared with Qiaolan's home, the old man's family background is very different.
The old man's sons were enterprising, while Qiao Lan's sons were lazy and intimidating.
Although Qiao Lan is not tall, she is quite diligent.
She took good care of the old man, and the old man gave her 800 yuan a month for living expenses.
In the countryside, 800 yuan a month can already live very well.
However, Qiao Lan is very frugal and can save one or two hundred yuan a month from her living expenses, while her son often asks her for money, and she does not leave any way back for herself.
As long as her son asks for money, she will give it.
The old man was very upset when he found out.
The old man appeared to be in good health, but he had high blood pressure and heart disease.
Qiao Lan naively thinks that she has found someone to support her, and she does not know that misfortune is coming.
One hot summer evening, the old man came home from the street and suddenly fell fifty meters from his house.
Onlookers picked him up and took him to the hospital in a car.
After three days of rescue, the old man still passed away.
After the old man's death, Qiao Lan fell into a predicament of being at a loss.
However, she still lived in the old man's house and had no intention of leaving.
When dealing with the old man's funeral, his sons ignored Qiao Lan, she was just a neglected existence.
They were ready to leave after finishing their affairs, and no one mentioned Qiaolan's going.
But before leaving, all the doors were locked, and only the door of the room where Qiaolan lived was left, after all, Qiaolan was still sleeping inside, and they might not be able to throw things directly to her, right?But all but the door where she slept was locked, including the kitchen.
The meaning of this is obvious, that is, let her come from ** or go back**.
Qiao Lan became a balloon hanging in the air, and she took a few clothes back to her house.
Thinking that the old man was dead, she had to go back to her own house.
Her son and daughter-in-law said, "If you take care of the old man until he dies, you deserve an explanation from the old man's son."
You can't just come home. ”
Qiaolan felt that her son was right, she had taken care of the old man for more than a year, and the old man was sick and rescued in the hospital, and she and her neighbors took him to the hospital.
The old man died, after all, she had been with him for more than a year, and she could be regarded as the stepmother of the old man's son.
She went back to the old man's house, but she only had one room to stay in for a while, and there was no place to cook or go to the toilet, because the old man's son had locked the kitchen and toilet.
Qiao Lan ran to the village cadres at the old man's place, and she wanted the cadres to help her find the old man's son and ask them to give her an explanation.
As a result, the village cadres told her that when the old man's son left, he had already explained and asked her to go back to her home.
The reason why they didn't throw her things away was because they looked at her pitiful.
After all, she took care of the old man for a year, and the old man gave her a salary, and now that the old man is gone, their family doesn't need a nanny, let her take her things by herself.
Qiao Lan said that she was not a nanny, she was the wife that the old man was looking for, and she was their stepmother.
The village cadres beat the old man's son, but was scolded by the old man's daughter-in-law in **.
Tell her to pack up her things and take them away, they are already very polite to her, and if she doesn't leave, they will immediately have people throw her things out.
Qiao Lan had no choice but to take her own things and go home in disgrace.
The scene when she returned home was very similar to the scene when Pei Wen was driven away by them.
People say that this is the current newspaper.
Write at the end: Tell the truth People still have to rely on themselves, don't always think about relying on others.
In this world, the most reliable is only yourself.
I feel that you can change your life by working your own, and no one can be your long-term dependence.
Therefore, if you want to live a stable life, you still have to be down-to-earth, and don't always think that pie will fall from the sky.
