Pictures come from the Internet
I am Meimei. In the past two days, because I have to take the nanny exam, I asked my mother to help me take my daughter and accompany me to the county seat. Of course, I actually wanted to take the car back to the countryside on the day after the exam, but my mother said that she had some unfinished business and had to wait two days, so I stayed in the county for two extra days!
In the past two days in the county town, the old man (father) often sent me voice messages, saying that he had a cold, a bad cough, and maybe a fever or something. He also said that he had no money and wanted me to go to the county town to get the "lucky man" (a kind of superstitious book in the countryside). It records the general process of a person's life. Some people believe it and some don't. I don't really believe it.) It costs 70 yuan per person. Counting from my grandmother, there are nearly 40 or 50 people in our Chen family, and the total cost is two to three thousand.
After listening to what the old man said, I hurriedly said that there are too many positive cases in the county now and I dare not go out, especially since I have a six-month-old daughter at home.
After hearing this, the old man could only say: You really have to pay attention to safety. Now I have no money. If it weren't for the land compensation for dozens of people in my family, I wouldn't even have a dime now.
I replied: Since their farm compensation is with you, you can just use their money to do this for them. Everyone has their own families, so there is no need to always advance money for each of your brothers. Besides, your brothers are all richer than you.
After hearing this, the old man could only hum twice, and then coughed several times. Listening to the sound of the old man coughing, I judged that the old man had a serious cold, so I asked him if he wanted to call a doctor for him. The old man refused and said no. He also said that a doctor would come to the village to see a doctor this afternoon, and he would just need to see a doctor then.
I asked the old man if he had any cold medicine or anything at home. I should take some first. The old man said that he had a serious cold yesterday. He took two capsules of metamizole in the morning and two capsules of metamizole in the evening. Now he has a severe cough, but nothing else. When I heard what the old man said, I felt much relieved.
Originally, regarding the old man’s condition, I had already planned to go back and buy a box of Sanjiu Cold Spirit to take back and let the old man drink some more. But my sister just sent me a message, asking me to go back tomorrow. When I go to the countryside, I will make a video call with the old man, ask the doctor to diagnose and treat him online, and get some medicine for the old man. My first reaction was that I had to pay again!
To be honest, now that I have become a single mother, I only have tens of thousands of yuan left with me. Apart from the gift money that I forcibly obtained from my parents, I have no other income. And I still have a lot of grievances in my heart that haven’t been released yet! Now, you still have to ask me to repay evil with kindness?
I told my sister directly that I have to raise a daughter now, so I have no problem seeing a doctor online, but if I am asked to pay for medicine, I have no money! My sister said: You are responsible for getting the medicine, and I will reimburse you for the medicine! I felt a little more comfortable.
I know that many people will definitely accuse me of being unfilial. However, if you knew that he once accused me of being hypocritical when I was sick and didn't want to eat, and wanted to kick me out of the house, would you complain if it were you?
If you were forced by him to marry someone you don't love. Later, when you see that the other person is unreliable, you want to break off the engagement. And because the old man took the bride price and was deceived, and has no money to break off the engagement, and can only curse you, will you complain?
If you are a teenager and work on your own during the summer vacation, you are exposed to the scorching sun every day, suffer from heat stroke every day, and take medicine to maintain your health. You handed him the money you earned, but he only gave you the most basic tuition. Later, when you asked him for pocket money to buy stationery and homework books, but he scolded you so much, would you resent it?
Also, even now, after he became a cadre in the village, he received a monthly salary. He chose to use part of his money to support his sister-in-law. Even though his sister-in-law lived a rich and wealthy life, he always tolerated her.And now I am alone and have no source of income. If I ask him to buy some ribs by the way, and I have to pay for it myself, will you be willing to do so?
...
We have three sisters and one brother in our family. The eldest sister went from elementary school to college. Although the old man was very stingy with his family, he still tried his best to support his sister through college. My sister has never had family affairs affect her own life.
When my brother opened a store, the old man asked me to leave my job and help him look after the store for free, so I did. When my neighbors in the village said that no one wanted the old man’s third daughter, the old man forced me to get married, so I got married. The old man always said that being a man is about reputation, so for the sake of his face, my husband’s family was making things difficult for me, so I tolerated it. Even when we got divorced in the end, it was because my ex-husband hurt my mother before we got divorced, so that the divorce would not hurt his reputation!
My father has hated me the most since he was a child. I don’t know why. Even the old people in the village can’t stand it. They often ask the old man: The most sensible person in your family is your third daughter. Why do you dislike her so much? The old man just smiled.
Yes, maybe he himself doesn’t know why he did this to me, but I have always been an outstanding girl in the eyes of others since I was a child. Even though I experienced a failed marriage because of his interference and am now a single mother, I am still an outstanding daughter in the eyes of others!
Before getting married, I would give him 2,000 yuan or take him to buy clothes worth 1,000 or 2,000 yuan every year. Although he was very happy, he never cared about me.
After I got married, I ran out of money. My ex-husband would give him one thousand during the Chinese New Year, so he tried to suppress me with my ex-husband and make me a slave of my ex-husband’s family. Therefore, even in the end, when my ex-husband scolded me in front of him and even tried to beat me, he remained indifferent!
I have also thought that he is my father, a person I should strive to respect and love. But then I thought about how I had almost been maimed at his hands since I was a child, and the resentment in my heart became deeper and deeper.
Now, although I can not resent him, but seeing how he cries about poverty at every turn, I really don’t want to care about him anymore.
My brother and sister-in-law now have cars, houses and savings, but he still gives his salary to his sister-in-law. The sister-in-law took the old man's salary and often hurt him behind his back. If the old man knew about it, he would still do it.
I once reminded the old man and asked him to keep some pension money for himself. After hearing this, the old man said he would not do it because he doesn’t know where he will die when he gets old! But he turned around and cried hard at me.
I know that if he is rich, he has nothing to do with me. If he is poor, he will definitely find me responsible, so I am afraid. I really don’t want to care about him now.
Tomorrow, I think I will ask my sister to reimburse the cost of the medicine. I will not easily bear the living expenses of my parents anymore, at least until my life is better!
