Preface
In today's era, young people have different ideas from old people. Young people want to make a lot of money and live a good life, but the old people want to have a healthy life. Body, live to be a hundred years old, but if such an idea is placed on the current eighty or ninety-year-old elderly, it is impossible. They do not want to live to be a hundred years old, and even want to leave this world quickly. How on earth is this happening? What's going on? Let’s listen to what Uncle Lin said next.
Narrator: Uncle Liu is 85 years old
My surname is Lin, and I am 85 years old. When I was young, I had already made all plans for my old age. I thought at that time that I wanted to live a happy life in my old age. , so I worked hard every day to make money and save money. Later, through years of hard work, I finally bought a big house and lived the life I wanted.
But I never imagined that none of the plans I had when I was young would be put to use in my later years. On the contrary, my old life was still very miserable. I even thought about dying every day. It was so tiring. It was simply It was miserable.
Maybe everyone doesn’t understand why, but I can’t think about it. Besides, I still have a monthly pension of 6,000, and I even have three houses and a deposit. Why can’t I think about it? In fact, it's all my fault. If I hadn't been too bad-tempered and cruel to my wife and children, they wouldn't have treated me so badly.
When I was young, I was very arrogant. Because I was the team leader in the factory and managed dozens of people. Usually they would obey my orders and not even bother me. In order to please me, they often give me various gifts. When I meet this kind of person, I feel that I am very powerful. As long as I speak louder, they don't dare to speak. I am so dignified that I treat such employees even more. No respect at all.
I like the feeling of being supported. Whether in the factory or at home, I must be respected. My wife is also made obedient by me. She has to do whatever I ask her to do. If she messes with me Angry, I looked at her and she immediately apologized to me.
In fact, my wife is a very nice person. She takes good care of the house and makes me very satisfied with everything she does. But at that time, I only thought that she was taking advantage of me to live such a happy life. If it weren’t for me, She may not live that happily, so she must listen to me. Every day when I come back from work, I don’t want to do anything. As soon as my wife hears that I am back, no matter what she is doing, she will come over immediately and help me take off my shoes. , put on slippers for me, everything she did, I felt she should do it, who asked me to give her a good life? So I gave her a good life, and she had to repay me and serve me.
My wife and I have two sons and one daughter. I am usually very strict with them. When they were young, I began to train them to be self-reliant and do their own things. In order to train their hard-working spirit, I just let them Watching me eat, forcing them to do things they don't like. If they don't do well, they can't eat. Because of this, they have hated me since they were children, and their relationship with me is not good. So far, they have not They were willing to call me dad, but I didn't care at the time. They wanted to call me or not. I thought to myself, I don't rely on them to support me in my old age, so I didn't care.
Decades have passed in the blink of an eye, and I have reached the age of retirement. In the year I retired, my wife fell ill. It seemed to be late-stage gastric cancer. The doctor said it was very serious. Originally, I wanted to spend money to treat my wife. Yes, but I heard the doctor tell me that even if I was cured, the follow-up nutritional expenses, treatment expenses, and hospitalization expenses would still cost a lot of money, and because I would no longer be able to live like a normal person, I decisively refused to take the money. When I come out to treat my wife, I might as well let her die happily. It will save trouble and I can keep my money.
It was precisely because of this incident that my children completely broke up with me, saying that I was not worthy of being their father. No matter how cruel they said, I remained indifferent. In the end, my wife also left, and I couldn’t even shed a single tear. No, my children hate me so much that after my wife left, they never came back once, let alone called me daddy.
At that time, I was still in good health and could take care of myself, so I was too lazy to care about them and ignored them. I didn’t care about them. Anyway, I had plenty of money. Am I still afraid that I would not be able to live well without them in my later years? ? That's impossible. Now my assets can last me a lifetime. The reason why I worked so hard when I was young was to live a good life in my old age, and now it finally comes in handy.
From then on, I was the only old man living in the family. None of them was willing to provide for me in my old age. Even if they gave me money, they didn’t care about it. Calling them would just block me. It was like they no longer had me as a father. They still didn’t care. He really has my ruthlessness and is decisive and ruthless in doing things.
Later, as I got older, some diseases gradually appeared in my body, especially my diabetes and gout . Sometimes, when I didn’t pay attention to my diet, I ate something that could easily cause gout. After the meal, I felt like a cripple for a few days. I couldn't walk, it hurt when I touched it, and it was swollen like a pig's trotter. When I used to have gout, I could get better by taking some medicine, but now I don't care what I eat. I had to buy some traditional Chinese medicine and apply it. The hospitals were all overrun and they couldn’t cure my gout. It was too difficult.
This is also the reason why I often take medicine, which makes my whole body swollen a lot, and I feel a lot weaker. I feel dizzy at every turn, and I am out of breath after walking for more than two minutes. It is simply painful, and I have never experienced it. People who have experienced it don’t understand this pain. In addition, there is no one around me to take care of me and care about me, which makes me even more uncomfortable.
I knew that it was impossible to ask my children shamelessly at this time. They wanted me to die and had already disowned me as their father. It was useless for me to go there shamelessly. Later, I decided to hire a nanny to come back and take care of me. When I first hired a nanny, it was very good. The nanny was very responsible and attentive to me. Whenever I felt uncomfortable, she would give me medicine to apply and would take me to the hospital for injections and medicine. I am much more relaxed with the care of a nanny, but I still think it is better to have someone to take care of me.
But who would have thought that within three months, the nanny would often steal my money to play mahjong, and use the money I gave her to buy food for gambling. The food I usually eat are all unwanted and discounted. I sold it to her. When I found out about it, I immediately vomited and was very angry. I fired her decisively. Such a nanny was so abominable.
After I fired the nanny, I never thought about hiring another nanny, but it was not an option on my own. At this time, a friend of mine asked me to go to a nursing home. Now the nursing home is well planned, and there are dedicated people to take care of me there. , you don’t need to think too much, you can get high-quality services by paying for it, let me think about it.
In fact, I have considered going to a nursing home before, but I have also heard bad things about some nursing homes. They said that the appearance of nursing homes is bright and beautiful, but in fact it is very different from what we think, and the inside is not as good as others say. Some The old man urinates and defecates everywhere, and garbage is everywhere and not taken care of.
There are also some nursing staff who are not so patient. They all care about money. Whoever tips will be treated well. If you don’t tip, they will not even care about your life and death. The food will be a big pot and they will be eaten at regular intervals. The food is served to you right away before you finish it, and the food is not fresh. Some old people are not very hygienic. They don’t flush the toilet when they go to the toilet, and they don’t take a bath for half a year. I am a person with mysophobia. When I see this I couldn't accept it, and it was impossible to live with such an old man, so I didn't consider a nursing home.
I have also tried to keep in touch with my former colleagues and friends, but they want to stay away from me and don’t want to know me. When they see me, they will treat me as if they don’t know me and just walk away. Watching them treat me like this, I feel a little disappointed, but I can't blame them. After all, when I was young, I was even more excessive towards them.
I’m really sad now. I eat alone, walk alone, and take care of myself every day. Every time I go out and see old men holding hands with their wives, I feel envious. I’m so envious that I remember My wife, if I spent money to treat my wife, maybe she would stay with me for a few more years, and I would not be living alone now. Looking back now, I really regret it.
It’s useless even if I have a monthly pension. My monthly expenses for medicines and injections are more than 6,000. I even sold two houses and got several million, leaving only one house for myself to live in. I live on these millions every day. I once thought about giving these millions to my children and letting them take care of me for a while. However, they don’t care about my money at all. They make more than me now. Just look down on it.
I knew I was wrong. I even knelt down and begged them to forgive me and asked them to take care of me. I really couldn’t take care of myself. I thought they would pity me if I behaved pitifully enough. But who knew they said, "Even if you die now?" In front of us, we will not shed a tear for you, let alone feel sorry for you. The reason why you ended up today is your own fault. You deserve it. We will never be able to take care of you in this life. You Just give up this heart.”
I didn’t expect them to hate me so much. What’s the point of my life? What's the use of having money and a house? My children have severed ties with me, and there is no one to support me in my old age. I might as well die as soon as possible. I will suffer while living. There is no hope of living at all. I wash my face with tears every day. I cry when I wake up. I often sit at the door of my house and look outside. I feel like a imprisoned bird, unable to fly out. It's so painful.
After experiencing these things, I finally understood what I want. When people reach their old age, they need not only money, but more importantly, family. But now it is too late to say anything, and we cannot go back to the past. All this is my own fault. My children will never forgive me. Even if I die and stink at home, they will not come back to take a look. Now I have no wishes. I just hope to die quickly. If I die, everything will be over. No, you don’t have to suffer so much.
