The old man said to his son on the phone: I am sick now and have no money for treatment. Can you give me some money to buy me medicine?
The man on the phone said: What does it have to do with me? It doesn't matter if you die.
The old man said angrily: What you said really hurts my heart. Although I am sorry for you for cheating on me before, but it has been 20 years, why can't you let go of your hatred?
The man said: You brought this upon yourself. You can't blame anyone else. It was you who wanted to tear a good family into pieces in the first place. Don't blame me for being cruel. That's it. After saying that, the man hung up the phone.
What happened between father and son? Will a man support his father?
The old man who asked the reporter for help was named Xu Ping'an. He told the reporter: Look at the air leaks around my house, the rain and water leaks, but my children are driving luxury cars and living in villas with a net worth of over ten million. I don't know how they can bear to watch their father living in the open.
reporter said: Now that your children are so rich, why don’t they care about you?
Xu Ping'an said: I blame myself for being a prostitute when I was young. If I hadn't had an affair, I wouldn't have lived like this. Although I felt sorry for my children, I also gave all the things in the house to my ex-wife.
reporter said: How long has it been since you and your child have seen each other? Are you still in contact?
Xu Ping'an said: I haven't seen each other for 20 years. I have called them several times in the past two or three years, but they are unwilling to pay attention to me. I came to you very helplessly.
reporter said: Do you still remember where they live?
Xu Ping'an said: I don't know much about this, but I know where they lived before. I guess they haven't moved out yet.
After hearing what Xu Pingan said, the reporter followed Xu Pingan to the place where he lived 20 years ago. After arriving, he knocked on the door but there was no movement. The outside of the door was also covered with spider webs. It looked like no one had lived there for a long time. Then a group of people left.
The next day, Xu Pingan called the reporter and said: He found the address of his son's real estate company on the Internet. Then several people followed Xu Pingan to his son's company. When Xu Pingan knocked on the door again, a woman walked out. The woman said: Who are you looking for?
Xu Pingan said: I am here to see my son Xu Xusheng. Is he in the company now?
The woman said: If he is not in the company, you can find me. I am your daughter.
The reporter also looked at a loss after seeing it. He didn’t even recognize his daughter Xu Pingan, who was so close at hand. This also shows that Xu Pingan has never paid attention to his children.
Entering the office, Xu Ping'an sat on a chair and said: I'll call your brother, and he can tell me to die. You can't go too far in saying this. How can a son curse his father?
And it’s not easy for me to raise you. There is an old saying in China, “Raising children will protect you from old age. Now that I am old, you have to bear the burden of my daily life.”
Xu Hui said: You haven’t called or come to us for so many years, which means that we are not very important in your heart, so you are looking for us now just for your retirement. Reporter
said: When you opened the door just now, your father didn't recognize you. I was a little surprised. You guys probably have little contact, right?
Xu Hui said: This is normal. After all, we have not seen each other for 20 years, and since he cheated on me and divorced my mother, we have not had much contact, so it is normal for our relationship to fade away.
Xu Ping'an said: I was sorry for you and your mother when I cheated on you, but you are also the flesh that fell off my body. Just because I have raised you for so many years, you should at least give me some alimony.
Xu Hui said: You haven’t seen us in the past 20 years. Although you have called us in recent years, we feel a sense of loss in our hearts. Do you understand?
reporter said: Can I show you a picture of the house where your father lives now? Xu Hui took the phone and looked at it for a few times.
Xu Hui said calmly: His house is much better than the one I lived in before. When my husband married me, I lived in an old house made of mud bricks. Now that he still has a house in his hometown, it is very good.
Moreover, we children have all gone through hardships. Now we can make a little money and have gone through a lot of things. What does it mean for him to come to you now?
reporter said: Your father just hopes that you, as children, can support him.
Xu Hui said: It’s hard for me to accept him all at once. We all started from scratch. Now that we can make a little money, when life gets better, he will come to us. To be honest, he probably only has money in his eyes.
After Xu Pingan heard what his daughter said, he turned and left angrily. The reporter also hurriedly chased him out. Xu Pingan opened his phone and saw that it was a text message from his son
After seeing the text message, Xu Ping'an said a little sadly: Even if I am wrong, now, they drive a luxury car and live in a luxurious house and still talk coldly to me as a father. Can they do this to balance their hearts?
After saying this, Xu Pingan walked back home alone.
On the third day, Xu Hui called Xu Pingan and said: Today is the winter solstice, let me treat you to a meal. Xu Pingan took reporters to the hotel again. Everyone was wondering whether Xu Hui had forgiven Xu Pingan?
After Xu Pingan gave his daughter a chicken drumstick, he cried and said: The life I live now is really unsatisfactory. My son and daughter are unwilling to pay attention to me. I feel that I have failed as a father.
Although I have been divorced for 20 years and have been working outside, I am still not as miserable as I am now.
reporter said: In fact, when we talked to your father in the past few days, we learned that he is a very tough person. It is because of his tough personality that the relationship between you has become cold.
Xu Hui said: In this society, everything you do has a cause and effect, and you will reap the consequences of whatever cause you sow. Since things have developed into an irreversible situation, why bother to force it?
reporter said: Our country also has a legal obligation to require children to support the elderly.
Xu Hui said: I know, I didn’t say I wouldn’t support him, and we didn’t say we cared about the money. In fact, we just wanted his explanation.
reporter said: Do you want him to apologize? Or other reasons?
Xu Hui said: I am not asking him to apologize. Anyway, these are his freedoms. In the past 20 years, when we needed him, where was he? Now that our life is getting better, he appears. To be honest, I feel uncomfortable when he does this.
Moreover, the issue of support is not a problem. As long as the emotional matters are resolved, money is not a problem for us.
Reporter said: The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the child wants to be raised but cannot be cared for, right?
Xu Hui said: Yes, we do not refuse to support the elderly, but our feelings for him are frozen three feet and never become cold in a day. So many years of grudges and indifference to us for so many years. To be honest, it would be difficult for anyone to accept it.
Xu Pingan couldn't help but said: "Then you mean you don't want to support me anymore."
Xu Hui said: I didn’t say that I won’t support you. I think you should sue us through the law and let us pay as much as we want. This is better.
After Xu Hui said this, Xu Pingan finally realized that his children would never forgive him no matter what they said. Xu Pingan turned around and left angrily. In the afternoon, Xu Pingan came to the Justice Bureau and decided to prosecute.
In the end, Xu Pingan and his children solved their own pension problems through law.
Conclusion:
It is the obligation of us young people to support the elderly, but for some parents who have not fulfilled their obligations to their children, to be honest, they should support them anyway, but there is really no need for the two parties to interact, which will cause additional harm to each other.
As ordinary people, there are very few of us who can forgive ourselves for being abandoned by our biological parents, because no one can understand the hurt caused to our hearts by our parents abandoning us.
Therefore, whether you are a parent or a child, you must take good care of your family, otherwise it will be very miserable to be homeless.
