At five-thirty in the winter morning, it was still dark outside, and the sound of getting up could be heard in the old farmyard.
Aunt Lianhua neatly tidied herself up and turned to look at the old lady lying on the bed next to her.
Under the light, the old lady’s cheeks were round, and although her wrinkles were deep, her complexion was already rosy. In addition, she eats well and sleeps soundly during this period, which also makes her upper limbs stronger.
At this moment, without the help of my daughter-in-law, I sat up with both hands. I put on my coat first, then turned around, supported the wheelchair on the side, and sat on it with difficulty.
“Mom, I feel like your movements are much more flexible.”
Aunt Lianhua watched from the side, her eyes full of surprise.
“Yes!” The old lady was also happy.
In the past, my daughter-in-law took care of these things, so I saved myself some effort, but the psychological burden was heavy. Besides, it was also tiring!
The son I raised was not a good person in the first place, but now I am still dragging him down. Aunt Lianhua doesn’t even like to drink water at home.
It's different now. When she got into the wheelchair, she first touched the thermos cup and drank a lot of hot water, and then pushed the wheelchair into the yard. She had to go to the toilet.
This toilet is a flush toilet that Lotus bought in October. There are poles fixed on both sides. She only needs to hold it up with both hands to sit on it.
Although the direction of sitting is reversed, it does not affect her use at all despite her age. Wouldn't it be possible to flush, dry or dry it?
This smart thing cost 3,000 yuan!
One month’s salary from Lotus!
But the old lady gave her another supply. She has been knitting straw mats at Lao Song's house this summer. Because she had so many ideas, she earned more than 8,000 yuan that month...
Ouch! If I had known there was something like this that could wash and dry buttocks, wouldn’t I have bought it earlier! My daughter-in-law has suffered for so many years for nothing.
The old lady came out of the toilet, washing her hands and giving instructions:
“Hurry up and pack your own things, and pack the bedding. I’ll finish packing later and we’ll go straight up the mountain.”
Aunt Lianhua moved quickly: "The quilts and sheets were packed last night. Mom, drink the white fungus soup first. Let's eat together at the canteen on the mountain this morning."
Actually, there is breakfast every day in the canteen on the mountain, but the old lady has no work to do now, so she is too embarrassed to go. Anyway, she can just boil two eggs for breakfast.
This white fungus soup is still the same ground white fungus powder that Song Tan gave her before. She is old and has to sit every day to go to the toilet, which is not very smooth.
But having a bowl of white fungus soup every morning is different. Since discovering this, Aunt Lianhua has stewed a bowl of it every night.
As for herself?
She doesn’t have to.
She now eats on the mountain every day, but the old Song family never lacks tea and snacks, so she always takes advantage of it!
No, I am working harder and harder when doing things.
Neither of them are big talkers. After the old lady drank a small bowl of white fungus soup in two or three gulps, Aunt Lianhua put the sheets and quilts she had packed in her arms, and then pushed her wheelchair directly up the mountain.
The village was quiet, and the street lights had long been turned off, but in this misty morning, the asphalt road could still be seen clearly.
This road is so well built!
The old lady also muttered: "I saved 22,000 yuan this year, I will give you 5,000 yuan later, and I will keep 2,000 yuan for myself. Ask Tantan and the others, what kind of electric wheelchairs are there now? I think they can be used on Douyin." Running on the main road, the speed is not slow!”
She can push it by hand now, but it’s a bit difficult to go uphill. If the old lady didn’t have the strength in her arms now, she might not be able to push it up.
Besides, when she pushed out and encountered something, she had no time to avoid it, and Lianhua was always worried... What was going on at home when she was working for others?
This is not worthy of the kindness of the old Song family.
But after the old lady finished speaking, she felt happy: "Oh, why am I so rich? I'm even willing to give up 20,000 yuan!" Thinking about it, I was really stupid before. I knew how to save money when I had money, and I couldn't bear to give up 10 yuan to 8 yuan! Not to mention anything else, just the smart toilet can be bought for 3,000 yuan. If she had bought it earlier, how could she have needed Lotus to serve her for so many years?
Aunt Lianhua was also cheerful: "You have to spend it! Yan Ping told me that this is a necessity, it is something that must be bought. Buy it early and enjoy it early!"
The old lady nodded cheerfully: "Yes, yes! Don't think Yan Ping is not good at work. He came from a good university and makes money with his brain. He is also kind."
“In the summer, his classmate called and said that the current monthly salary is more than 20,000 yuan, and he must be at the same level if he goes out to work. We can’t earn more than 20,000 yuan, so I heard that he is capable.”
Aunt Lianhua nodded "Yeah". The old lady was old, so she kept saying it over and over with emotion. This wasn't the first time she heard this.
Not only Zhang Yanping, but also everyone in the old Song family took it out and said it again.
Fortunately, there are other things to focus on today—
“Lotus, do you still have enough money to build a house on the mountain? If not, take the 20,000 yuan.”
The old lady came up with a good idea: "Yes, you can use the 20,000 yuan to decorate the house, but we won't buy the wheelchair yet! If that **** comes back during the Chinese New Year, I'll go all out and get it from him!"
Who can he be who is said to be his biological son but does not recognize his mother or his wife?
Now that she hears the man who made her unable to hold her head up again, Aunt Lianhua feels quite calm: "It doesn't matter whether you come back or not. If you feel uncomfortable when you come back, we will live in the mountains. I will also install smart toilets on the mountains."
“Whether I want to buy a wheelchair or not, I’ll keep the money for now. Everything on my mountain has been decorated. I’ll take the quilts and bedsheets and put them away today. If it really doesn’t work, we two can come and live there. It’ll be just as beautiful.”
Apparently very confident.
The old lady curled her lips: "Okay, let's do this for now."
At the same time, he muttered: "The feng shui of our village is really bad. Why are neither of us filial? During the Chinese New Year, why don't we discuss how to move the ancestral graves to another place..."
“How can you be unfilial?” Aunt Lianhua laughed.
The old lady has already counted: "Look at Tan Tan, his cousin, his son hasn't come back for so many years, right?"
“The three children of Zhang Wang’s family.”
"That old man Li who herds the cows... I have heard from Tan Tan all summer. If he is really filial, Old Li will definitely come back and tidy up the house in glory this year. But I'm looking at it. I'm not sure what he will do next year. Down and out!"
“And that thing at home.”
The old lady is old and has a bright mind.
There are also some unfilial people in other villages, but if they don’t live up to this level, they are at most the elderly who grumble at the expense of being hospitalized...
It’s different from this one that is so direct and shameless!
Thinking about it this way, is it really the wrong place to bury the ancestors?
But their graves were also scattered in each family’s field…
After thinking about it like this, the old lady still sighed: "It's all because I didn't teach him well!"
Update 1, hey! Good morning!
