When Ji's mother died, Brother Ji and his wife felt that the sword hanging above their heads disappeared, and it began to appear during the funeral. Sister Ji couldn't stop crying, and her tears kept falling. It was useless to persuade anyone, and those who didn't know thought they were with Ji's mother. How good the relationship is.
As a result, as soon as the funeral was completed, Sister-in-law Ji and Brother Ji began to settle the accounts openly.
When Ji's mother was admitted to the hospital, Ji Huai said that there was still a sum of compensation that had not been used up. How much was this compensation? How much did you use? Why didn't you say it before
They felt that Ji Huai and his wife had embezzled a lot.
Sister-in-law Ji has no job, but where is brother Ji? He used to work at a construction site, and after the construction site was completed, he looked for work intermittently. He was not a particularly hard-working person, and the money he earned could only make ends meet. The two often quarreled over money.
In the face of money, the ugliness of human nature is exposed.
Ji Huai looked at the two people with slightly angry eyes. If this matter is not resolved, he doesn't know what he will be said about in the future, let alone brothers.
He and Tian Jing also plan to buy a house. If they do, they may be accused of buying it with Ji's mother's compensation, and there will be no end to it.
He looked at the emotional Brother Ji and his wife, who kept saying weird things. He did not refute or quarrel with them, but called the elders of the family.
In front of everyone, he put the insurance money, hospital bills, and various expenses on the table, and also made a very concise and clear bill.
Ji Huai looked at Brother Ji, "Even if we as a couple pay for other bits and pieces of expenses, aside from these, there is indeed a sum of money left, a total of 287,151.24."
When she heard that there were hundreds of thousands left, Sister-in-law Ji's eyes lit up and she raised her voice, "This is the money left by mom. Score it and divide it into three parts. One share for your brothers and one share for mom's grandson."
In this way, their family can get two-thirds, close to 200,000 yuan.
Brother Ji also agreed and wanted the elders to testify, "The money still needs to be divided to avoid any disputes in the future."
Ji Huai looked at him, and then at Ji's father who was sitting silently aside. He was not as strong as Ji's mother. Since Ji's mother became ill, her head had gradually turned gray and her waist had become bent a lot. He answered, "Mom is gone, the house is gone, and dad will have to provide for his retirement in the future. I think I need to use this money to supplement dad's pension insurance. What do you think, brother?"
These words directly stopped Brother Ji, and Sister-in-law Ji was also confused. She subconsciously retorted, "That's the money left by Mom. Not only Dad has a share, but everyone has a share."
The elders disagreed: "If you divide this money, what will your father do? How will he support himself without a house? What will he eat?"
"Ji Huai is right. This money is going to your dad. How to divide it? It all has to go to your dad."
"I think it's okay. At least there is a source. Now the country has policies. After making up for it, you don't have to worry about taking care of yourself in old age."
…
Brother Ji wanted money, but he couldn't ignore Ji's father, otherwise he would be drowned in spit. He hesitated and said, "How much more do I have to pay?"
You can't pay 280,000, right
"Maybe you have to pay 300,000 yuan. If it's too little, it won't be enough for dad to live." Ji Huai finished speaking and added, "Now we have to rent the house, which is another expense. The house and water and electricity bills are several hundred a month. Dad Now I have a chronic disease and I need to take medicine. Xiaojing and I have discussed it and we will make up for the rest."
After hearing what he said, Ji's father raised his head and looked over, but said nothing.
Ji's mother's death was a big blow to him. Although Ji's mother had a loud voice and was very competitive, and eventually sold the house and wandered around, after all, they were people who had lived together for decades, and they were gone. When they were in the hospital, Mr. and Mrs. Ji didn't visit often. Now that their home is gone, their two sons are arguing over the little money.
He has lived for most of his life, but now he doesn't know what to do. He is confused and wandering. His son can no longer rely on him. What does he want his grandson to do
When Brother Ji heard that he wanted to make up the money, he obediently said nothing.
Sister-in-law Ji didn't believe it. She rolled her eyes and said, "You guys will be the good guys, and we will be the bad guys? Who knows if there are only 280,000 left, or more?"
The meat in her mouth was about to fly off, how could she not be in a hurry
"Take a good look at these bills." Ji Huai couldn't bear it. He raised his hand and slapped it on the table, saying calmly, "Don't open your mouth and talk nonsense."
Sister-in-law Ji lost face and started to yell, "These two insurances paid out this amount of money, but who knows if there are other insurances? Maybe you took one for yourself, who can say for sure?"
Just after she finished speaking, she noticed that Ji Huai was looking at her with a sullen face. He felt guilty and mustered up his courage, "What? Did I tell you the truth?"
"You keep saying that we hid the money secretly and that we swallowed up mom's insurance compensation. When we bought the insurance, did you ever think about buying it for mom? The tens of thousands of dollars were paid for by our husband and wife, and you paid not a penny. "?" Ji Huaiba raised his voice, looked at them word by word, and asked again, "And we bought the same thing for dad. Did you pay for it? When mom was lying in the hospital, where were you? Yes. Are you going to take care of me? Now you’re here asking for money, where’s your face?”
Brother Ji felt guilty and lowered his head. Sister Ji also choked on her words.
"Really, you and your wife, what are you talking about? The bills are all here. You don't have to pay or contribute, so you're so embarrassed."
"Yeah, where is the secret? It's too ugly to talk about."
"If you ask me, this money should be used for your father's retirement. Otherwise, you will have to pay for your retirement in the future. Don't even think about sharing the money with your mother. Just do what Ji Huai did."
"This money can't be divided and spent. How can you still spend the money left over from your mother's treatment?"
…
The elders were talking to each other and pointing at Brother Ji and his wife. Brother Ji stretched out his hand to pull Sister Ji and told her to shut up. It was embarrassing!
If he spends this money, will he never see anyone again
"It's okay to use this money to support dad in his old age, but the money to build a house has to be paid back to us, right? We have four children, it's harder than you!" Sister-in-law Ji is still fighting for it.
No matter what they do, they still have to spend tens of thousands. They are now in debt and don't even have next month's rent.
"Stop yelling." Uncle Ji sat aside and looked at Sister-in-law Ji who was already a little dissatisfied. "Just because you raised four children, Ji Huai and his wife paid out the remaining money. What do you do?"
"It's easy for you to make money. What does this little money mean to them? They have more money flowing out from their fingers than we do." Sister-in-law Ji was indignant.
"What are you talking about? People's money is also earned by their husband and wife's hard work." Uncle Ji was displeased.
"We have worked hard to save those tens of thousands! Aren't we working hard? We don't want the extra money, we just need the money to build a house!" Sister-in-law Ji shouted with a stern voice, not giving in at all.
Tian Jing pulled Ji Huai's hand, feeling a headache, and whispered, "Forget it, give it to them, give it to them."
If adding tens of thousands will bring peace of mind, then forget it.
Ji's mother had just passed away. She mainly felt sorry for Ji Huai and couldn't bear to let him face such a scene and couldn't bear to have him in a dilemma.
Ji Huai did not give in. Sister-in-law Ji insisted on it, but he refused to give it. He said calmly, "My parents have given you a lot of money to raise your children these years, right? How many years have you and your brother not paid living expenses? This money always amounts to tens of thousands." Bar?"
"How can this be included in it?" Sister-in-law Ji refused.
Ji's father, who was sitting in the corner, did not raise his head. He spoke in a low and heavy tone, "When Shanshan was born, we gave you ten thousand instead of a full moon party. When we gave birth to Miaomiao, we gave you another three thousand. Before you gave birth to Miaomiao, we gave you ten thousand." He said he wanted to go out to work, and bought you an electric car worth 4,000 yuan. Ji Hui was not paid at the construction site, so we gave him money several times without telling Ji Huai. The first time we gave him 8,000 yuan, and the second time we gave him 8,000 yuan. I gave six thousand, and the third time I gave five thousand, and then I gave two or three thousand intermittently... The land in my hometown was expropriated, and we lost the compensation by thirty thousand, and used it to compensate Ji Hui to invest in opening a store. Last year …”
"Dad." Brother Ji suppressed his blush, felt ashamed, and called Ji's father hastily.
Ji's father looked at Brother Ji with calm eyes, and continued in a leisurely manner, "You have spent more money than Ji Huai since you were a child, and your daughter-in-law also asked for 20,000 more betrothal gifts than Tian Jing. Later, you said three gold It was not enough, so your mother secretly bought one without telling Ji Huai and his wife. She has a lot of things to do at home, so your mother also secretly asked you to take the money back. When building a house, you also take the money that will be given to the workers in the end. It’s been spent, and we have to pay for it... In fact, you didn’t have to pay so much, we were afraid that Ji Huai and the others would have some ideas and make it up."
Sister-in-law Ji, who had been quite reasonable just now, was like a defeated quail and did not dare to say any more.
Brother Ji, who originally wanted to pretend to be stupid and get the benefit of being stunned, really didn't dare to have any objections at this time. Looking at Ji's father's eyes, he swallowed and wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl in.
He is confident in being favored. Ji's father and mother have been very fond of him since he was a child, so he doesn't want to suffer, and even wants to get more benefits.
When the elders saw this scene, they shook their heads. Brother Ji and his wife finally walked away in despair. How could they dare to say anything more
They are not completely bad. If they really want the tens of thousands of yuan, it will not be enough to pay off the debts Ji's father just mentioned. Moreover, they have already raised four children, how can they have money to support Ji's father in his old age
Finally, the matter was finalized. The money must be paid to Ji's father for pension insurance. In this case, he could receive a sum of money every month, which was enough for living expenses.
It was impossible for Ji's father to tell all these things unless he had no choice but to be extremely disappointed. When he looked at Ji Huai, he no longer knew what to say.
He moved the corners of his mouth, but his pride and embarrassment prevented him from spitting out a word.
Brother Ji and his wife are more "obedient" and will not contradict them. Ji Huai and his wife have read more books and are more thoughtful. They cannot be controlled by them, so they have always disliked them.
When leaving, Ji Huai pursed his lips tightly and forced out a smile, "It doesn't matter."
Before he finished speaking, he quickly turned around and left.
Tian Jing saw Ji's father's eyes were red and his mouth was trembling, but she didn't say anything. She took her bag and followed Ji Huai. After running to catch up with him, she put her hand into his and held his hand tightly. Fingers intertwined with him.
Ji Huai walked a little too fast just now, but after being held by her hand, he slowly slowed down and held her hand in return.
In fact, she had long seen that Ji's father and Ji's mother treated the two brothers differently. Ji Huai was the one who was not favored very much. He could still accept it reluctantly when he didn't know it. It was really uncomfortable to know these unfair treatments.
All the way to the subway station, Ji Huai took two deep breaths and pretended to be relaxed, "Actually, I think it's nothing, but it's unfair to you and it still makes me sad."
"I don't care, really, I don't care at all." Tian Jing shook her head and said softly, "If I knew it before, I might feel it was unfair, but now I don't feel it. On the one hand, I don't need it anymore, but more importantly The important aspect is that because of you, you are worthy. No matter how unfair it is, I still think you are worthy."
Ji Huai held her in his arms, buried his head in her neck, and said gloomily, "The good conditions I thought I had before are gone. I feel like you are at a loss."
He is a local aboriginal and does not need to buy a house. This is what makes him better than others. But in the end, he lost everything, the money to build the house was gone, and the house was still in a mess.
This is really bad, that's what he thinks is better than her, and it will seriously damage his self-confidence.
Tian Jing knew what he meant and reached out to hug him back, "But your ability has improved and you have become better."
"What's good? I still can't afford a house, and I still have to pay back a lot of mortgages. What's the difference from them?" Ji Huai became even more depressed after saying this, asking himself, "There's no difference! You still suffered so much with me. "
"Then... why do I love you more? There must be a reason." Tian Jing continued to hold him, looking at him with a smile, the corners of her mouth raised.
Ji Huai has been dealing with Ji's mother's affairs during this period. Although he didn't tell her, he must have felt depressed and helpless. With this incident happening again, he felt a little depressed and began to doubt himself.
When he heard that she loved him more, his eyebrows relaxed and he asked, "Really?"
This sentence is very useful.
Tian Jing stood on tiptoes and pecked the corner of his lips, "Really, I love you very much now, more than before. You are the best in my heart, better and better than anyone else. I don't love you at all." I don’t feel any pain.”
Ji Huai was coaxed by her and reminded her, "You still have to save for a year or two to buy a house, and you have to repay the mortgage of more than 10,000 yuan a month. Now you have a mid-life crisis. What if you get laid off..."
"When the time comes, we will sell the house and live in a small city, okay?" She answered softly.
In the past, Ji Huai was her mood stabilizer, but now she is his.
"No." He refused flatly, holding her hand and walking to the subway station. "I told you before I fell in love with you, I will definitely let you take root here, and I will not drag you down. I have to do this. arrive."
Tian Jing couldn't laugh or cry. At that time, she said that she would not go back to her hometown, but now she feels that the person beside her is the most important. She feels at ease wherever she is with him, and it doesn't matter where she is.
The two returned home and their two daughters were there. Ji Tianyi came back from a painting training class and heard a noise at the door. She ran over with a look in her hand, holding a painting in her hand.
"Wow." Tian Jing exclaimed, "Who are you drawing?"
She raised it up proudly, and above it were a man in a suit and a woman in a wedding dress. She had just learned to paint this year, and she painted awkwardly, "It's dad and mom, having a wedding!"
Tian Jing looked carefully again and saw that Ji Huai had knelt down and carried her in, "Where is the wedding held?"
"In the church," she replied, "there are flower girls. I am a flower girl, and my sister is also a flower girl."
Her words made Ji Huai feel so guilty that when he returned to the room, he said to Tian Jing, "Shall we take wedding photos after a while? We didn't even take any photos at the time."
"Forget it, after spending so much money, you might as well keep it if you don't want to see it." She refused without thinking.
She is always too sensible. She needs to build a house and buy furniture when she gets married. She feels that she does not need these rituals. She will not spend money if she can, and she does not even have a set of wedding photos.
Ji Huai: "It's not bad at all. Let's go take pictures sometime."
"No." She refused again and said while folding her clothes, "I still have to save money to buy a house. Who's to say it's not bad?"
He sighed, got up and took his clothes into the bathroom without saying anything more.
late at night.
The couple sleeps in the master bedroom, and their two daughters sleep in the children's room, so they won't be disturbed.
During this period, Ji Huai traveled to the hospital and the company, and often accompanied him in the hospital at night, so he spent less time at home. He usually fell asleep and had little communication.
After she washed up, she lay down on the bed. Ji Huai had been sleeping for a long time, and he didn't know whether he fell asleep or not. He liked to sleep on his side, facing her now.
Tian Jing gently raised his arm and fell asleep in his arms. She rarely took the initiative in the past. When she was in love, he took the initiative, trying his best to sell himself, trying his best to get closer to her, and doing his best to please her. He would never be cold or violent towards her, and he would take the initiative to admit his mistakes when they quarreled, for fear that she would break up.
After being married for so many years, he took the initiative in bed and out of bed. After all these years, he was still obsessed with her and liked to hold her while sleeping.
Ji Huai opened his eyes, bleary-eyed, instinctively holding her in his arms, lowering his head to kiss her.
She had just come out of the shower and her hands were a little cold. After he touched them, he put them in his palms and rubbed them. He took her hands and wrapped them around his neck, placing them on his hot skin.
His body temperature was high, like a naturally warm baby. His cold hands gradually warmed up. He took one of her hands, wrapped it around her, and then pulled up the other. Tian Jing's eyes curled up, and she leaned into his arms again, a little clingy.
Ji Huai put his hands down again, hugged her slender waist, and looked at her close at hand. Tian Jing was not a beauty that was stunning at first glance, but in his eyes, she was really beautiful. He looked at her Then he suddenly smiled and said, "After so many years of marriage, why can't I see enough?"
"Is your heart still pounding?" She smiled lightly and snorted, "Don't fool me."
"Kiss me." He said suddenly.
Tian Jing raised her eyebrows, but saw that he was looking at her very intently, her figure reflected in his deep eyes. She seemed to be suddenly bewitched, and she leaned over and kissed her gently, and then kissed her again, "Isn't one kiss not enough?" ?I kissed you twice."
Ji Huai pulled her hand from his neck and put it on his chest without saying a word.
Her smile gradually faded, and her palms became very hot because his heartbeat was really fast.
What he said fell in her ears, "I still worry about gains and losses. I'm afraid that I'm not good enough, I'm afraid that you'll regret marrying me, I'm afraid that I'm too bad and drag you down, I'm afraid that you will continue to suffer hardships, all of which are caused by me."
Tian Jing had tears in her eyes, shaking her head left and right in denial.
"When I fell in love with you, I knew it was over. I can't escape in this life. No one is as good as you, no one is as good as you, so I really want to marry, and I just want to marry home. I feel I'm okay, not too bad, at worst I'll lick you, you're a man, you can stretch and bend..."
Tian Jing laughed out loud at what he said and took a breath.
He whispered again, "It's no big deal. When I marry you home, I will treat you well and I will listen to you in everything. Be obedient and diligent. I can do the housework and take care of you behind closed doors." Come and live, I don’t believe you don’t think I’m good.”
She stopped holding his neck and nodded, "I fell into this problem in the first place."
Ji Huai was indeed not that outstanding at the time, but she was anxious and more assertive. Boys who worked hard like her were stronger and more difficult to communicate with, so she fell in love with him, and they were more comfortable getting along with her. She had to admit that it was He has a good temper, doesn't criticize others, and is very tolerant of her.
"But I found that I didn't treat you well either. When I got married, I didn't do much at the wedding, not even wedding photos." He felt deeply frustrated in his tone.
Tian Jing felt that he was very kind to her, but he was still reflecting on himself, "I used to be very confident. I can definitely treat you well, and I will and always will, but..."
She stretched out her hand to cover his mouth and said softly, "Then let's go take photos of the wedding, okay? Bring your daughter with you, and maybe even take a family photo together this time?"
During this period of time, Ji Huai did not tell her about Ji's mother. He was silently enduring a lot of pressure. She felt sorry for him but did not dare to say more because he was more afraid of her being stressed and troubled.
Ji Huai: "Yeah."
"When you were pregnant with Qiqi, you said you wanted to take me to play, but you didn't take me to play in the end. Do you also want to make it up to me? Take me to play." She requested.
One of her bad points was that she was used to being strong. She took care of everything by herself and didn't care about many things. Instead, she made him feel that she was not needed.
Ji Huai has a gentle temperament, but because Ji's father and Ji's mother value his eldest brother more, the family environment he grew up in also made him somewhat inferior. In this relationship, he always felt that he was at a disadvantage. If something like this happens again in the Ji family, he is afraid She gave him another penalty.
"Where do you want to go? I will take you there during the National Day." He responded quickly.
"It doesn't matter where we go, it's important to go with you." She nodded to herself, then pointed at him, and leaned over to say embarrassedly, "Can it be just the two of us this time? I haven't been alone with you for a long time. ”
Before she finished speaking, Ji Huai's heart beat faster again, and he took her hand and put it on his chest.
Tian Jing's face turned red and she hid in his arms.
His lust for her never diminished, and he pulled her into the bed like a young boy. Tian Jing was ticklish and laughed repeatedly when he was tossing her around.
"Don't... cluck... "
"No, I won't. Ji Huai, don't go too far."
"You're done, I'm going to be angry."
…
Tian Jing's anger was not threatening at all. The next second he was amused, and with a smile and tenderness, he even took the initiative to hug him.
She was also afraid that Ji Huai was in a bad mood. He had been focusing on his daughters before, and she was focusing on him during this time. She wasn't that good at coaxing people when she was in love, but after giving birth, she had to learn how to coax her children, so now her coaxing skills are not bad, and she does one thing after another when coaxing him. Ji Huai can't stand it at all, and his emotional temperature is so low Miso rising.
We walk together when we go to work, come back together after get off work, and hold hands on the road, which is so annoying.
Even Tian’s mother noticed something was wrong. Why did these two people look like they were in love? They have been parents for several years, especially their daughter, who looks so shy that she is embarrassed.
However, her daughter and son-in-law have a good relationship, and she likes to hear about it and is eager to see it happen.
