The daughter-in-law who bought a house for her daughter was unhappy, she gave 5,000 a month, and forced her son to ask for 200,000
Wei Ruying has entered the 55-year-old stage of her life, she turned her mobile phone to airplane mode, came to Yangzhou alone and chose a quiet homestay to stay.
It doesn't hurt to be extravagant, after all, she is full of uncertainty about the days ahead, her home may be in chaos because of her sudden departure, and relatives may be looking for her. She couldn't help but have some funny fantasies, imagining the scene of her family anxiously looking for her.
Wei Ruying was thin and small, sitting on the balcony outside the room, closing her eyes and feeling the breeze blowing, and her whole person exuded a peaceful atmosphere.
The question of dinner made her think, and she simply went to the market for a stroll. She put on a floral dress and strolled leisurely.
The market was bustling with everyone hurrying by, but she was the only one who was at ease, scrutinizing each stall as if time had slowed down around her. Perhaps in the eyes of others, she is a unique existence.
Wei Ruying, who was smiling, finally chose a bouquet of lilies, a small bowl of wontons, and a few skewers of barbecue, and returned to her room.
The lights on the street were already on, and she sat on the balcony and slowly enjoyed dinner, eating and watching dramas. The plot of Ode to Joy is still fascinating, especially He Minhong in order to fight against the scumbag Qi Mu, who actually pushed down his mother and escaped, which made her feel angry.
The scumbag doesn't care about her, even if she's pregnant, he doesn't care, and lets her run around. In contrast, her parents' care for her is very precious and supports her carefully. But those girls whose hearts are blinded can't see all this, and can only listen to the scumbag's rhetoric, which makes people extremely angry.
This caused Wei Ruying to fall into deep thought for a moment, and she suddenly wondered if she had fallen into a similar predicament. However, it was not clear to her whether there was a better solution. She knew that as long as she was willing, her husband Wang Zhi would definitely treat her at all costs. However, that life was not what she was after.
Or she should discuss it with her family and let them accompany her for a walk and see, after all, in less than half a year of earthly time, it will definitely be happier with her family.
While slowly savoring the food, the ups and downs of life are unpredictable, and birth, old age, sickness and death are always uncontrollable laws. In the face of all this, there seems to be no other way but to accept it.
Zhu Zhe's younger brother found her again, as a college graduate, why did he not pursue to find a job and move forward, but to keep reaching out to his sister to ask for money? What caused him to think like that? Maybe he hasn't experienced the trials of life, and he feels that there will always be someone to support him at any time, so he seems a little fearless.
However, he may not realize that the voyage of life still needs to be controlled by himself in the end, and the help of others may be able to solve the problem for a while, but it will not last long. As the saying goes, "help the emergency does not help the poor", and no one can change the fate of others forever.
Wei Ruying sat quietly in front of the TV, thinking about these things. It turned out that watching a drama could be so interesting, and she couldn't help but chuckle.
Her mind turned to her children, who must have been missing her too. What would they think when they learned that she had taken her family's card? Although Kari doesn't have a lot of money, it's probably only more than 300,000.
She and Wang Zhi earn money through WeChat every day, except for the 20,000 that are retained, the rest are deposited into this card. Even though they are used to paying on their phones, this age group still likes to keep some money on their cards.
Wei Ruying has two children, a son is 33 years old and a daughter is 28 years old. They each have their own lives, running around every day like the people she sees on the street.
She was like this a month ago, she had no time to care about chasing dramas, she was busy from morning to night every day, watching the money in her WeChat account increase little by little, and felt that the meaning of life was these numbers. Being able to save for a pension, go on a trip, buy what you want.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but laugh. Now, she no longer needs to think about the issue of pension, and her life has entered the countdown, with just over 180 days left.
She needs to think about whether she wants to tell her family where she is. Wait until you think clearly before making a decision, after all, there is some beauty in life, which belongs to her last time, and the most beautiful thing is to have relatives with her.
After dinner, she leisurely takes out the trash. She didn't like the smell of leftover food in the room. Walking down the street, the night sky was filled with warm heat, and she looked up at the starless night sky, and the neon lights of the city still shone brightly.
Wei Ruying took the medicine and went to bed early. She plans to wake up early tomorrow morning and sit on a park bench to feel the morning sun shining through the willows.
Lying in bed, she lamented that life was full of accidents. A month ago, she also felt that she was in good health, except for some fatigue. And a month later, she was lying alone in bed, counting the remaining days.
A month ago, she accompanied her sister to the hospital for a check-up. My sister said that she was weak all over her body and always felt sore. My husband suggested: "Ruying, you can also check it, you have lost a lot of pounds this year, prescribe some Chinese medicine to recuperate." She responded with a smile: "Oh, how many people envy me for my good figure, and at our age, it is easier to get sick if we are fat." However, she was eventually examined, and the results dramatically showed the differences between the sisters.
Ruying couldn't believe her ears, she always felt that she was very healthy and never caught a cold, but the reality was so cruel that it broke her mercilessly.
My sister was already in tears, but she kept calm and asked, "Doctor, is it still possible for me to be sick?" ”
The doctor replied with a serious face: "Of course, we can have surgery, and then post-operative chemotherapy, and if everything goes well, we have another three or five years." ”
She asked: "Doctor, if you choose not to **, how long can you live?" ”
The doctor re-looked at her ** and the test results and said: "If you choose not to operate, it may be half a year at most, and it is already in the middle and advanced stages." ”
When she walked out of the hospital, she seemed to be fluttering and felt like she couldn't sit on her feet.
My sister persuaded: "Ruying, let's go for surgery tomorrow, the family has money, act quickly, now that medical technology is advancing rapidly, maybe in a few years cancer will be as simple as a cold, just take a medicine." ”
Ruying smiled stiffly and said, "Sister, if you have time tomorrow, let's go see my mother and stay with her for a few days by the way." ”
The next day, Ruying drove and went to visit her mother with her sister and mother's favorite pastries.
My mother is over 80 years old and in good health, but the only inconvenience is that her ears are a little weak, and she has to shout loudly in her ear when she speaks.
Ruying accompanied her mother and sister to the hospital, customized a pair of hearing aids for her mother, and took her mother to taste soft and glutinous braised pork.
She said to her sister: "Sister, when the hearing aid is ready, you go and give it to your mother, and I will keep your **."
My sister thought she was going to be hospitalized for surgery, and readily agreed.
She and her sister accompanied her mother, carefully preparing food every day, and although the old lady didn't eat much, she was full of joy and smiling all day long.
She also visited her mother-in-law with Wang Zhi, who had been spending her old age with her eldest brother, and the yards of the two families were connected, and although they often went out, the vegetable garden in the yard was taken care of by the eldest brother's family, which could be regarded as helping to take care of it.
The old lady has limited mobility and can only sit in a wheelchair, often basking in the afternoon sun.
She bought a gold bracelet for the old lady, who loved gold jewelry, but she never got her wish.
The old lady was in a good mood and kept serving her vegetables during the meal.
After returning home, Ruying felt that she had difficulty communicating with Wang Zhi, and she had not yet decided how to deal with the situation.
My sister called, and she only said that there were some things that needed to be dealt with and that she would go as soon as possible.
In the early years, Ruying and her husband also worked as farmers in the village, and later saw that the villagers went out to work, and they also went to Guangzhou to work hard for two years. During that time, the husband met a friend who was in the scrap business and learned a lot of experience.
Two years later, they returned to their hometown and opened a scrap yard in the county seat, where they have been in the business ever since. Although it was hard, I also earned a lot of money, and the income was more substantial than working outside the home.
She and her husband bought two homes in the county, and their son chose to stay and work in the provincial town after completing his graduate studies, and they also bought a house for him. Of course, housing prices here are not as high as in Shanghai and Shenzhen, otherwise they would not be able to afford them.
As their daughter continued to pursue her PhD, they also purchased a property while her daughter was studying for her PhD. For this reason, the family had little savings left, and even had to sell a house in the county seat.
When buying a house for her daughter, her daughter-in-law was not very happy, and her husband Wang Zhi was also hesitant, not to mention that she still needed a house.
Despite this, Ying feels that it is more difficult for women, and she only hopes that her daughter can live a relatively easy life. Whenever you have a harbor of your own, you have more confidence in your heart and more choices in life.
Despite the unhappiness, when the grandson was born, the daughter-in-law did not let her come to help, but only said through **: "Mom, you and my dad are very busy, so you don't need to come over." Although Chengyun and I don't have a high income, you and Dad still have to support it. ”
Ruying was just smiling at the time, her son worked in a scientific research unit, and his monthly income was more than 20,000 yuan. There is no mortgage pressure, and the car is also purchased with the full amount of his son's savings, so why is it not enough to raise a child? Despite this, she did not say it, and after the birth of her grandson, she still gave her daughter-in-law 5,000 yuan a month. Now the grandson is nearly 3 years old, and time flies.
After graduating with a doctorate, her daughter found a privileged job and is now the leader of the project team, with an annual salary of more than 600,000 yuan. At the beginning of the year, she also got married, and now she has a worry-free life.
Recalling her children's achievements, Ruying is proud of them. As long as they live a good life with peace of mind, life is bound to change for the better.
Ruying quickly fell asleep, and she didn't know if it was because of psychological reasons, and her body always felt tired.
Wang Zhi sat in the living room, smoking non-stop, Ruying's ** still couldn't be connected, and there was no response to the text messages sent.
He felt irritable, so he called his son: Chengyun, did your mother contact you? Do you know where she went? ”
Cheng Yun's son suddenly showed that he was in a bad mood and blamed him: "Dad, how do I know where my mother is, I should ask you, haven't you been together all the time?" ”
Wang Zhi felt angry, and his son's attitude made him feel that there was no use in having a son. He replied angrily: "Your mother was diagnosed with cancer, but she didn't go to the hospital and can't find it now." ”
Cheng Yun was stunned, he was arguing with his wife Xiao Yun just now. Xiao Yun is also a rural girl, and her family needs to spend 200,000 yuan to renovate the old house, so she forced Cheng Yun to borrow money from her parents. However, his parents did not have any extra money at home, and the family had used up their savings in the past few years to buy a house for him and his sister.
Even if his parents have money, it is earned through hard work, and Cheng Yun feels that he should not ask for money at every turn. Parents have provided them with enough help.
He understood that the reason why Xiao Yun was angry was to buy a house for Cheng Han. Xiao Yun thought that this was supposed to be money reserved for them, and Cheng Yun couldn't understand why Xiao Yun had such a patriarchal concept, even more than his mother.
Xiao Yun firmly believes that his parents still have money on hand, and if they are not willing to give it, it will definitely be given to Cheng Han. No matter how Cheng Yun explained, she didn't want to listen. Cheng Yun was also angry.
At this time, the father called ** to ask about the mother's situation. Cheng Yun thought that his parents might have quarreled, and his father would say this when his mother was angry. However, when his father hung up **, before Cheng Yun could react, he heard what his father said:"Mom got cancer and ran away from home. "
Cheng Yun anxiously dialed her mother's **, but only heard a cold beep, and ** did not respond. He kept walking around the room, anxious.
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Yun hurriedly called his father **, but there was silence during ...... call
At the same time, Wang Zhi called her daughter Cheng Han and said anxiously: "Hanhan, did your mother call you?" Any idea where she is? ”
Cheng Han just came out of the laboratory and replied tiredly: "Dad, I haven't gotten off work yet, I've been working overtime for the past few days and haven't come home." What happened to Mom? ”
Wang Zhi said in a heavy voice: "Hanhan, you have to find a way to find your mother." Your aunt said that she and your mother went for a physical examination and found out that the cancer was already in the middle and advanced stages. Now your mother can't find it. ”
Cheng Han was stunned, her mother had cancer and was still missing. Dad meant that her mom might be thinking about how to deal with this fact.
said mechanically: "Dad, I watched, Mom didn't call me **." It seems that she may have found a quiet place to figure out what to do. We can only wait. ”
Before he finished speaking, Cheng Han had already begun to cry. Mom has always been the person she relies on the most, and as long as Mom is around, she doesn't feel like anything is scary. But now, my mother is terminally ill, what's going on?
Wang Zhi hung up**, with a heavy heart. It has been more than 30 years since they got married, and Ruying was only 20 years old, with big braids and looking at him shyly.
He walked into the room and saw a piece of paper in a drawer, which simply read: "Ruying took a card away, she went to the big hospital to check it again, and at the same time found a place to think about it, so that you can wait for her." ”
Wang Zhi was in a painful mood. In fact, he understands that if other hospitals also diagnosed Ruying's cancer as having reached the middle and advanced stages, she would definitely not choose surgery.
Wang Zhi's father also suffered from cancer, which was not at an advanced stage, but only in the middle stage. Everyone thought that surgery and chemotherapy could be cured, but the cost was huge, and the patient suffered greatly. However, after the operation, he lived for less than two months.
After that experience, when they were lying in bed and chatting at night, Ruying once said that if one day she also got a terminal illness, she would not be **, and the money left behind would be given to him and his children for the rest of their lives.
He whispered, "Ruying, even if you really can't be cured, you should let me stay by your side." We can go to your favorite place and taste the food you want to try. You shouldn't be hiding alone. ”
Wang Zhi could no longer restrain himself and sat on the bed crying silently. He was angry with God, why was he so cruel to Ruying? The children are married, and they can finally enjoy a few years of quiet time, but she no longer has that time.
Cheng Han forced himself to eat something, called in sick, and drove home.
When I opened the door, it was pitch black. She turned on the light and walked to her parents' bedroom, where she found Wang Zhi sitting there silently, her eyes full of helplessness.
Cheng Han turned on a small lamp, didn't speak, went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of green vegetables and egg noodles for his father, walked up to him, and whispered, "Dad, eat some noodles." You have to stick with it at this point, Mom needs us the most right now. When she figured it out and found us, we couldn't afford to be without the strength to accompany her, right? ”
Wang Zhi looked at her daughter and asked blankly, "Hanhan, when did you come back?" Do you think mom will find us? ”
Cheng Han: "Dad, don't you know your mother?" She's just trying to be alone for a while now, and when she figures it out, she'll definitely find us. We have to take care of ourselves and wait for her. ”
Wang Zhi felt that her daughter was reasonable, took the bowl, and ate it in a big gulp.
Cheng Yun couldn't get through**, so he sat alone on the sofa in a daze. Xiao Yun said impatiently: "Chengyun, what time is it?" Why don't you go and put your child to sleep? How do you want to spend your day? ”
Cheng Yun didn't react, he didn't hear what Xiao Yun said at this time, and there was only one thought in his mind: Why did he suddenly suffer from a terminal illness?
Xiao Yun looked at him and became more and more angry, and said, "Cheng Yun, I'm talking to you, did you hear me?" Tomorrow you have to call your mother and ask her to send you some money, my hometown's house is about to start, we can't be in arrears, how can you let me explain at home in the future? ”
When Cheng Han heard the mention of his mother, he was stunned and said, "Xiao Yun, my father told me that my mother has cancer, and it is already in the middle and advanced stages. ”
After Xiao Yun heard the news, he said emotionally: "Cheng Yun, what did you say? Is it still necessary in the middle and late stages? Isn't it spent in vain? Don't be silly. ”
Cheng Yun stared at her with red eyes, but Xiao Yun thought that what he said was right, after all, the cancer was in the middle and advanced stages, ** was useless, he was just spending money in vain.
Seeing that Cheng Yun was silent, Xiao Yun continued: "Cheng Yun, I know you are uncomfortable, but we have to think about those who are still alive, you have to think clearly. ”
Cheng Yun stood up silently, slapped her hard, and said coldly: "Xiao Yun, you are really cold-blooded, are you still human?" ”
After saying that, she walked into the house, picked up a bag, sorted out some children's supplies, went out with the child in her arms, and drove home.
Xiao Yun didn't expect Cheng Yun to beat her, sitting there crying, expecting Cheng Yun to coax her. However, when she heard the door open, Cheng Yun had already left with the child.
Ruying watched the warm sunlight reflecting the lake through the hanging willow branches, and a tenderness welled up in her heart.
She decided to check again today, and if the results were still the same, she would call Wang Zhi and the child and ask them to come over to accompany her. The children continue to work, while she and her wife plan a trip.
Ruying likes Yangzhou, the city is like a classical woman, graceful and beautiful. She wanted the children to join her for a stroll through the surrounding country towns and appreciate every detail.
After the examination, Ruying's heart was full of anticipation, but the cruel result shattered her dreams. She smiled wryly, it turned out that anticipation would only make people more uncomfortable, and this might be the last time.
When she returned to her room, she sat on the bed crying in despair, for the first and possibly last time she learned about her condition.
She has understood that miracles will not happen again. She had no choice but to accept it, as less than 200 days were already getting closer. Why not make yourself happier, more relaxed?
When her emotions calmed down, she went out for dinner, and when she called Wang Zhi ***, Wang Zhi asked excitedly: "Ruying, where are you?" My children and I are going to go and look for you. ”
Ruying smiled, obviously, the other party also understood her choice.
Said softly: "I booked a homestay here in Yangzhou, I'll send you the location, come here." ”
She added with some concern: "Can Cheng Yun and Cheng Han ask for leave?" Don't let your work get hurt. ”
Cheng Han smiled and said, "Mom, I've taken a month's leave, I plan to go around with you and Dad, do you have any places you want to go?" ”
Ruying frowned and said, "Hanhan, don't you often work overtime?" How is it possible to take such a long time off and not be afraid of problems at work? ”
Cheng Han's eyes were red and he said: "No, Mom, my project has been completed, the experiment has been successful, and all the reports have been submitted, and I also told the leader not to accept new projects for the time being." ”
Mom, think about how difficult this project is, and how can the leader not let me rest more when it has achieved such great results? ”
After hearing this, Ruying said: "Hanhan, you accompany your mother, your mother is very happy, but you must not delay your work, otherwise your mother will be very worried." ”
Cheng Han smiled and nodded: "Well, I know, Mom, don't worry." ”
At this time, the grandson woke up more and more, and shouted in a milky voice: "Grandma, I will also go to you, you wait for us." ”
Ruying is very happy, the child's innocent and cute appearance always makes people happy.
But she also said: "Chengyun is also here, can you also ask for leave?" Don't force it too hard. ”
Cheng Yun said: "Mom, I can't take so many leaves, only 15 days, you wait for us, we'll go to you now." ”
Wang Zhi had handed over the scrap yard to someone else, and the group immediately set off for Yangzhou.
They choose to drive directly, after all, it is more convenient to travel on high speeds, and it is more free to travel with a car.
Ruying rested for a while, and when it was almost 8 o'clock in the evening, she received a voice message, and a more delicate voice came: "Grandma, we have arrived." ”
Ruying got up and changed her clothes, ready to greet them. She booked two rooms in advance.
After a simple wash, the family set off to taste Yangzhou cuisine. Hanhan found a store with excellent online reviews, the store is antique, quiet and orderly, and there is no hustle and bustle atmosphere.
The dishes on the table are light, but they have a delicious aroma. The family sat around to eat, and as they continued to taste, the laughter gradually spread and became cheerful. Ruying looked at the children around her and sighed the wonder of life, from ignorant childhood to gray-haired old age, how many adventures and hardships everyone's life has experienced.
When night fell, Hanhan accompanied Ruying to sleep, and the mother and daughter lay on the bed, recalling the bits and pieces of their childhood, while falling into a leisurely dream.
Accompanied by their children, Ruying's family traveled to the surrounding scenic spots, the son then returned to work, and the daughter took the old couple to start a new journey.
Ruying felt that this kind of life was very beautiful, and although their pace was slow, they were in a very relaxed mood. Whenever you want to stop, stop and enjoy the local culture.
This kind of life is satisfying for Ruying, because in her limited time, having relatives by her side and visiting the places she once loved has become the best time of her life.
Final Words:
Time seems to have slowed down, both in terms of transportation and communication. In life, we can only choose to love someone. And at the end of life, I longed for everything to flow slowly, savor the warmth of family affection, and feel the beautiful moments in ordinary life.
The years of life are becoming more abundant yesterday and gradually decreasing tomorrow. The road I have traveled is getting longer and longer, and I have met more and more people, as if I realized that the most wonderful scenery in life turned out to be inner peace and indifference.
