My mother sold the old house to my cousin for 5,000 yuan, and last year the old house was demolished, and my cousin sent a courier
Hello, please sign for your package. ”
I opened the door, took the package from the courier, glanced at the address, and saw that it was from my cousin.
Without hesitation, I handed the package to my mom and asked her to open it herself.
When my mother opened the package, I was eager to try it out, and I looked forward to the contents of the package.
Five years ago was a turning point. I got married and moved to the city, but my mom insisted on staying in her hometown. I persuaded her more than once to live with us, but she always insisted that she was used to life in the countryside.
However, it was only when I called ** that I realized that things might change. ** It was from the village health center, and they told me that my mother had fallen and asked me to take her to the city hospital for a check-up.
This news made me so anxious that I hurriedly asked for leave and immediately returned to my hometown to pick up my mother to the hospital. This time I went home for the shortest time, and I was in a hurry to get my mother to the county hospital. The doctor told me that my mother broke her calf and needed to be hospitalized for a while** and needed more care in the future.
Mom spent a month in the hospital before being discharged. I resolutely refused to let her stay alone in her hometown again. She may also realize that she is getting older and has increased the safety risks, so she agrees to go back to the city with me.
Before we moved to the city, we decided to sell our old house. After all, if you don't live for a long time, the house will become dirty and messy, which is also a waste.
Soon, word spread that we had decided to ** the house. But unexpectedly, the first one to come to the door was my cousin.
My cousin has always had a good relationship with our family, playing with my mom a lot when I was a kid, and now I occasionally visit relatives.
His family has always been poor, and he still lives in a simple brick house. I didn't think he could afford our house, but I didn't expect him to show a lot of interest.
Sister, how much are you going to sell this house for? Uncle Cousin asked.
I was about to say 20,000 yuan, but my mother took my hand and whispered to my cousin, "If someone else has 10,000, you can just give me 5,000." ”
Uncle Cousin's eyes lit up, but he tried to control his emotions, "Sister, this is too little, let's charge more." ”
But my mother said with a straight face: "If this price is not good, I will sell the house to someone else." ”
Uncle Cousin hurriedly said, "Don't don't, I'll buy it, five thousand will be five thousand." He also promised to return it to my mother when he made money in the future.
After my cousin left, my mother said to me, "I wanted to sell it to your cousin in the first place, after all, their family conditions are too poor." But before I could say anything, he came to the door himself. ”
Although it should have been sold for 20,000 yuan, it doesn't matter if we make less money, it's a good thing to be able to help them. ”
After selling the house to my cousin, I took my mother back to the city. 
Every year during the Chinese New Year, my cousin would come to our house with home-grown vegetables, stay for a while and leave, never staying overnight or staying to eat.
Until last year, we heard that the house that my cousin bought was going to be demolished. At the time, I was still saying, "If only the house were still ours, my cousin really took advantage of it." ”
My mother said indifferently: "We are relatives, what is there to worry about, demolition is the fate of others." ”
I didn't refute it at the time, but there was still something wrong with it in my heart.
However, Uncle Cousin never mentioned the demolition. I always thought that he had left that fortune behind in private.
However, it was only after receiving the package from my cousin that I realized that I might have blamed him.
My cousin thanked my mother in the letter and said that she was his lucky star. He knew that the house could have been sold for 20,000 yuan, but his mother only needed 5,000.
Since moving into that house, his luck has gotten better and his job has become more stable.
Last year, after the house was demolished, he received two small apartments and a sum of compensation.
When I saw this, I was filled with emotion. I thought my cousin was hiding the demolition from us, but now I understand that he is an honest man.
The keys were the keys to the big suite he gave us.
If my mother doesn't go back to her hometown, he can help rent out the house, and the monthly rent will be called directly to us.
If her mother wants to go back to her hometown, the family will also help take care of her.
After hearing this, my mother sighed: "My cousin has always been an honest man, if you are good to him, he will be good to you by two points." It never changed, just like when I was a kid. ”
She looked at me again and said, "I know you always think your cousin is hiding from us, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, and we will always know." Now that you know, don't have bad intentions in the future. ”
