Chapter 351 Old Mother 23
Lin Hui looked at Zhu Jianli and Chen Guoying who looked eager, shook her head and said, "No, I have already hired help in the store."
In fact, how could Zhu Jianshe not ask about it? He already knew that his mother had invited someone, but didn't he have a better candidate?
"Mom, the people you look for outside are not as reliable as your own relatives. Guoying's cousin is very efficient and clean. Now that her grandson is old and has nothing to do, it is just right for her to help in our store. After all, It’s a relative of my own, so I feel more at ease when using it.”
After Zhu Jianshe finished speaking, he looked at Lin Hui expectantly, hoping to get her approval. Chen Guoying on the side also looked hopeful.
Lin Hui looked at the couple with a half-smile, and said solemnly: "First of all, this is my own store and it has nothing to do with you. Don't use the word "we". Secondly, I already have suitable helpers in the store. He is very honest and reliable, so there is no need to invite anyone else at the moment.”
Zhu Jianli's expression changed after hearing this. He didn't expect that his own mother would not give him face in front of his wife. She refused the candidate he recommended without telling him, and also had to distance himself from the store. How could this be possible? OK!
Chen Guoying's face turned even more ugly. In her opinion, this was because the old woman was trying to take advantage of her and deliberately prevented her relatives from going to the store. She felt unhappy, so she quietly put her hand into her husband's lower back and pinched him hard.
Zhu Jianshe received the signal of his wife's displeasure, and you were also unhappy in his heart, so he immediately retorted: "Mom, what are you talking about? I am your son, your biological son, how can the store you open be like It doesn’t matter to me. Doesn’t it mean that if you don’t rely on your son to support your old age in the future, what you leave behind a hundred years later will not be given to your children and grandchildren?”
Ha, I finally said what I was thinking. The other sons probably have the same mentality as the eldest son. They feel that the father who was the head of the family is gone, leaving a mother with no one to rely on. She can only rely on her son and wife in the future. To make a living, that's why they took care of the original body.
Moreover, they firmly believed that their parents' property must be left to their sons, so when the old house was demolished, they never thought of leaving any share to their old mother, but divided it among several people.
But if you get a house and treat the elderly well, that’s fine!
Unfortunately, she was originally a lonely old woman. As she got older, her sons and their families were divided into several houses, but no family was willing to take her to live with her. She could only live alone in this old house in the family courtyard.
Although this house is only on the third floor, when people get older, daily walking sometimes becomes a problem, let alone climbing stairs.
My original health was not good, and it was difficult to go up and downstairs, so I tried my best not to go out. I only bought groceries once every few days, and then stayed at home without going out.
Many people of similar age to her in the family compound have moved to live with her children. There are fewer and fewer people she knows well, and there are no more people who visit her.
Later, the original person realized that her body functions were gradually deteriorating, and she could no longer even go out to collect her pension. So, she once again asked her children if they could take her away.
She thought about taking turns living in several houses, and giving her pension to whomever she lived in.
However, at that time, the original son's sons had already become grandfathers. They also lived with their children, and they themselves were three generations of grandparents. If there was another old mother, how would the children live?
As for my monthly pension, they don't even care. It's only a few dollars, and they don't care about it!
However, it is not a good idea to completely ignore my request. It would not be good if the old lady goes out and talks nonsense and affects the reputation of the children.
So, the several families of them agreed that each family would take turns sending people to visit the old lady, and each family would come twice a week to see the old lady and help her with some things.
However, even if you say this, it is difficult to fully implement it when it is actually implemented, and it will often be compromised.
At first, when they came, they could really help the old lady with some things, bring some food, and help clean up the unsightly places. However, as time went by, this kind of visit gradually faded away. As for the form, I just came to take a look.
After a long time, even the twice-weekly visits were no longer guaranteed, only a symbolic visit occasionally. This was the case for one family, and then it was the same for every family. Later, no one came even for ten and a half months. trip.
It’s not like she has never begged her children to let them come back often when they are free, even if they just sit and talk with her.
But they are either still working, busy at work, and want to rest when they have free time, or they already have children and grandchildren and are too busy to take care of them, so they can't even bother to take a look at their mother who lives alone.
In addition, the original owner was very poor, and her sons had a few houses allocated to them. People with a monthly pension could not see her, and she was completely unattractive to them.
One day at noon, the original person suddenly felt pain in his chest, his vision turned black, and he fell to the ground out of energy.
At this time, she still had some consciousness and wanted to struggle to get up and use her mobile phone to call the emergency number.
However, because she was old, she did not have the habit of carrying her mobile phone with her. Moreover, no one called her on weekdays. The mobile phone would not ring once every ten and a half days, so she left it beside the bedside in the bedroom.
She struggled for a long time but failed to get up. She wanted to shout for help but found that she couldn't make a sound at all. She could only lie down on the ground weakly and gradually lost consciousness, until finally her chest no longer heaved.
Because the fertilizer factory's family home is a staircase building and the school district it belongs to is not very good, many children of factory employees find ways to move to other districts when they grow up. Their parents also move with their children, and there are not many elderly people left. .
There are only two households on the first floor of the original neighbor's building. The others are new residents or young people renting houses, so no one pays attention to the fact that the original person has not been out for a long time.
It was not until a few days later that a foul smell gradually began to permeate the corridor, which could be smelled almost in the entire building. After gradual investigation, everyone found that the source of the smell was Room 302, where he was originally located.
The smell was getting louder and louder, and it had reached the point where it affected everyone's normal life. The owner of 301 couldn't help but cover his nose and knock on the door to ask, but no one responded after knocking for a long time.
He thought that this was an old lady who lived alone and seemed to have not been out for a few days. In addition, the smell was strange, so he called the police.
After the police arrived, they violently broke open the door and found the original body lying on the floor of the living room. Due to the high temperature in the summer, the body had already been highly swollen and decomposed, making it difficult to identify. Maggots were already crawling on it.
