In 2010, Grandma Li, who left us, was 82 years old. She should have enjoyed the joy of family life in her old age, but in this originally warm and happy home, she experienced endless sorrow and torture.
We have to trace her long and difficult life. Grandma Li's name is Li Shilan, and after marrying her wife, she gave birth to four children in a row, and she has spent her life working hard.
In order to support her family, she worked tirelessly, worked hard, and her hands were covered with calluses. The four children grew up one by one**, and she witnessed their growth with her sweat and tears.
When her husband grew old, she took on the responsibility of the whole family. Even in her twilight years, she is still taking care of her sick wife in bed. After the death of her wife, she devoted all her energy and love to her youngest son, the father of Wang Tao, whom we have repeatedly mentioned in our article.
Wang Tao's parents moved in with Grandma Li. 's mother was very filial and gave birth to her only son, Wang Tao, who became the pearl in her heart. Grandma Li poured all her love into taking care of this well-behaved and obedient grandson to grow up.
Her heart was full of love and joy, and like all grandmothers, she hoped to live out her old age with the help of her pampered offspring.
If we reflect on her life's dedication and hard work from the perspective of grandma, she deserves to enjoy a peaceful rest of her life, and be cared for by her children and grandchildren.
However, the cruel reality has pushed her into the abyss, and the reward she deserves has come to naught. Let's move on to the dramatic changes that befell her.
The moment Wang Tao stepped into the marriage hall, it should have been the most gratifying day in Grandma Li's life, and she could finally witness the inheritance and happiness of the bloodline. However, when Wang Tao decided to marry his newlywed wife and take possession of this small family, a sudden change befell Grandma Li.
The son-in-law's attitude began to change subtly. In the name of renovating the house, Wang Tao ruthlessly ordered Grandma Li to leave immediately and move to a small room in the common corridor.
We can't imagine that Wang Tao, who was once pampered and had no skin, can now be so cruel to his grandmother.
Grandma Li was forced to live in a modest room separated by only two wooden planks. It was dusty, rotten and damp, and through the windows you could see the mottled and peeling walls, and cobwebs hung from them.
A dilapidated table and chairs, a cardboard bed with a thin quilt, and a few plastic buckets as a makeshift toilet are her new "home".
In this unimaginably simple environment, 82-year-old Grandma Li not only lost the right to a decent house, but also completely lost the dignity of life. She was severely visually impaired and had difficulty moving, but she had no one to take care of her.
Wang Tao and his daughter-in-law's attitude was extremely indifferent, not only did they not care about her injury, but they didn't even send a bite of three meals a day.
What's even more cruel is that Wang Tao only gave Grandma Li 300 yuan a month for living expenses. It is not difficult to imagine that for an old and frail old man, such a meager amount of money is simply not enough to maintain basic food and clothing.
Grandma Li's original property of 170,000 yuan was worthless after it was handed over to Wang Tao. She asked Wang Tao for 100,000 yuan as future living expenses, but was refused.
If from her point of view, a happy old man who was originally looking forward to being surrounded by children and grandchildren suddenly fell into a situation where even the needs of minimal survival could not be met, and the sense of gap in her heart must be too huge to bear.
It is hard for us to imagine why Wang Tao, who once loved his grandmother the most, has become so ruthless and cruel now.
When Grandma Li realized that she could no longer return to this warm home, and the attitude of Wang Tao and her daughter-in-law was already dead, she chose an extreme way - to end her own life, in order to end this imminent tragedy.
During the day, she asked her neighbors to teach her to write ominous characters, such as "rebuke" and "lung." Unbeknownst to all, this was a sign of an impending catastrophe.
Li began to write her suicide note in the narrow and simple corridor every night in the dim light.
In this letter, entitled "Suicide Note to Avenge Yourself and Accuse Your Children and Grandchildren", Grandma Li told in detail about her life's dedication and denounced the crimes of her eldest grandson Wang Tao and his wife.
She earnestly accuses them of ruthlessness and injustice, and describes how Wang Tao drove a kind old man out of the house and forced her to live in the hallway.
We can imagine that the 82-year-old Grandma Li, because of the betrayal of her children, reached the peak of all the pain and despair accumulated at the end of her long life journey.
She could no longer endure the pain of trampling on her dignity and was determined to punish these unfilial descendants in her own way.
So, on the night of writing the suicide note, Grandma Li took out a red rope and wrapped it around her waist. In folklore, this symbolizes taking away all one's bad luck so that future generations will never be happy.
We have to feel infinite regret for the determination of an old man like Grandma Li to go to a dead end.
Early the next morning, when the residents of the community found that Grandma Li's body had jumped from the balcony on the 12th floor, everyone was in an uproar. And at the last moment of her life, her grandson Wang Tao was still preparing for his wedding in the hotel.
The moment the groom learned the bad news, he did not mourn, but chose to continue the wedding, which was undoubtedly another injury to the grandmother.
When Grandma Li decided to end her own life, we thought that we would at least get the condolences and regrets of our children and grandchildren after death. However, what her grandson Wang Tao and other relatives gave her was still a cold and ruthless attitude.
The day chosen by Grandma Li was the day before Wang Tao's grand wedding. We took it for granted that after learning of this sudden bad news, the groom Wang Tao would cancel the wedding and deal with everything immediately.
However, the harsh reality shocked everyone.
Wang Tao was so indifferent and indifferent when he learned that his grandmother had committed suicide by jumping from the 12th floor. He simply sent someone to claim the body, and he was still dressed in a wedding dress, smiling and laughing at the banquet in bright and luxurious colors.
Wang Tao's various performances undoubtedly made us deeply disappointed in him. He continued the wedding as if in revenge, showing no remorse for his grandmother. Grandma Li's two sons are no better, one sues for money to fight for the inheritance, and the other suspects that grandma is **, and the dark tide between the two is turbulent.
We can't help but ask, an old man who raised you to grow up, who was tortured at the last moment of his life and chose to commit suicide, should have been the saddest moment of your life.
You should be crying and crying, and you should be heartbroken. But what Wang Tao did hurt the fragile heart of the dignity of the elderly all the time.
This series of indifference and ruthlessness is truly shocking and painful.
When we witnessed the tragic life of Grandma Li who was ruined by the betrayal of her children, we couldn't help but feel a wave of grief and anger in our hearts.
First of all, this incident highlights the seriousness of the current phenomenon of unfilial piety among children. In the lure of interest. Under these circumstances, some people can turn a blind eye to the elders who raised them, or even kick them out of their homes.
We must face up to the social cancer of our children's unfilial piety and form a moral and legal constraint.
Secondly, it is a tragedy about the distortion of human nature. Wang Tao's family was unable to give basic sympathy to the old man, and their behavior was the same, which shows that this is not accidental.
We must be vigilant to everyone, always monitor our words and deeds, and not let profit erode the inherent goodness of human nature.
Finally, this is also a story about the lack of retribution. The grace of nurturing is as vast as the sea, and gratitude and return are the principles that every pair of parents and children should follow. We must carry forward the virtue of the Chinese nation in repaying kindness, and make gratitude and gratitude a social consensus, so as to prevent the recurrence of such tragedies.
In this case, the grandmother's suffering was preventable. As a social community, we deserve to give life the dignity it deserves. Every fragile life deserves to be warmly treated, which is the original intention of making a human being.
We call for mutual support with sincerity and love, and for rebuilding bridges between people so that such tragedies do not happen again.
