"Dad, look at our house, your leg is broken and you can't go to the fields, and your mother has asthma, so you can't go to the fields either, and you can't do heavy work.
My brother and I go to school, and we have to pay a tuition fee of more than ten yuan every year. My brother is only three years old and is in poor health. No.
After a long time, not only the fourth aunt was cursing, but the uncle and the second uncle must be unhappy. "
"You can't say that," Ye Yusi said softly, "there are twelve large tile-roofed houses built with blue bricks and the most spacious and magnificent yard in the village. They were all built with your father's allowance. Although your father now Retired from the army, but your dad was injured while performing a mission and made special meritorious service. Even if he is retired due to injury now, the army will give you eight dollars a month as a subsidy. We will give all the eight dollars to your grandparents That's enough for our family of five to eat and drink."
In fact, the army gave ten yuan.
But after discussing with her husband, she only said eight yuan to the outside world, and they kept the remaining two yuan privately.
It's not that they are selfish, it's a family of five with three patients, and they don't keep any money in their hands. In case of sudden illness in the future, they can't pay for medical treatment, and there is only one dead end.
Fortunately, although her husband is filial, he still feels sorry for their wives and agrees with her to keep two yuan a month privately.
But this matter, only she and her husband knew about it, and they didn't tell the children, for fear that they would be loose-mouthed and vent their anger.
"Where are you going to see a doctor? What about getting medicine? What about going to school?" Xia Xiaoman counted the same with his fingers: "These three things add up to a lot of money a year. The most important thing is that our family of five lives on idle food. Yes, there is no one who goes to the fields to earn work points, and after a long time, the whole family will envy us and see that our family is not pleasing to the eye."
Ye Yusi fell silent.
Although she speaks clearly and logically, she also knows that many people only look at the present and don't remember the past.
Seeing that the family of five eats free food and does not have to work in the fields, they don't think about it. The bright blue brick and big tile house they live in was built with her husband's allowance.
They can only see that there are five members of their family, and none of them work in the field to earn work points. They are all taking advantage of other houses and eating idle food.
The elder brother and the second elder brother's family are better. Considering the relationship in the past, they say whether they are happy or not, at least on the surface they can get along.
The fourth daughter-in-law had only been married for a short period of time, and she didn't benefit much from their third wife, so she had to make a fuss every now and then, accusing Sang Huai and taunting their family.
She doesn't quarrel with people, she can only pretend not to hear.
Her husband is even more clumsy and tongue-tied, he can only sulk all his life, and can't say a word of rebuttal.
Only her daughter is not easy to mess with, every time she has to turn the fourth daughter-in-law's face into a pale face, wishing she could bear her anger.
After being bullied by her daughter several times, the fourth daughter-in-law learned how to be good, and picked on her daughter-in-law when she was not at home, scolding the couple.
Today, her daughter-in-law had a fever, she asked her mother-in-law for two eggs, steamed a bowl of egg custard for her daughter, and poked the lung tube of the fourth daughter-in-law, forgetting the time when she was so speechless by her daughter-in-law , and pointed at Sang Huai outside the door and scolded their family.
This day is really hard.
But she has asthma, can't get off the ground, and can't do heavy work.
After her husband was injured, he lost feeling in both legs below the thigh, and couldn't even go to the toilet by himself.
