Ordos, Inner Mongolia, became depressed after an economic bubble.
The wealth of the local Lao Yang is also like a roller coaster, from soaring to plummeting, from the family wealth to the current depressed, he is very uncomfortable, even more unwilling.
He was just a small man in the big era, slapped on the beach by the economic tide, unable to move.
Old Yang, who is no longer beautiful, is unwilling to take care of his wife who has been paralyzed for many years, spends all day wandering outside, eating, drinking and gambling, and bursting into foul mouths at every turn, and he will open his work without a word, and get rid of an old cannon in Inner Mongolia.
The children hated him so much that they called him old and disrespectful.
In order to allow him to stay at home and take care of his mother, the children were not decent enough to forcibly lock him in the house.
Old Yang took a breath, picked up the hammer, and smashed the lock in three or two clicks.
He put on a leather jacket, put on his sunglasses, got on a battery car, threw off his paralyzed wife, and went straight to the casino.
With little money in his hand, he rode again to get the money, and found that there were only 75 yuan left in the card, and he couldn't take it out.
After being ridiculed, he stuck the secretly taken mahjong sign in the ATM door.
On the way, Lao Yang met an old friend who had not been seen for many years.
Even if he didn't have any money in his pocket, he still enthusiastically pulled his old friend to drink and reminisce.
When we talked about excitement, I didn't even answer the old woman's phone.
Old friends said that now that the government has promoted the return of farmland to forests, their herders can no longer blatantly graze their cattle, but can only sell their sheep one after another.
But when the sheep were sold, he didn't know where to go.
This time in town, the old friend was pulling a sick camel to see the veterinarian.
Lao Yang is still a big brother to make pie, and after drinking, he took his old friend to the bathing center for massage.
The old friend knew at a glance that he was a regular customer, and he was going to find a familiar girl to serve him.
After waking up, Lao Yang mortgaged the battery car to the store, but for the sake of face, he insisted on telling his old friend that he could not swipe the card here, and he had no way to put the car there.
Old Yang has difficulties, but he doesn't want his old friend to know.
The old friend said that there was something wrong at home, and gave the sick camel to Lao Yang and let him take care of it for two days.
Old Yang agreed, turned around and sold the camels.
Seeing this, I think this old bastard is really shameless.
He got the money, redeemed the car, and instead of going home, he went to his old friend with a bunch of gifts.
He took out a big red coat and gave it to the woman, who was very happy.
It could be seen that he was very generous to this woman.
The two made love, the woman was still on the head, and Lao Yang was not good.
Old Yang knew that he was old and weak, but he wanted face again, and he desperately tried to find excuses because he was too tired lately.
The woman sensibly comforted him and cooked him the meat he had brought.
Woman here is the warmest harbor in the life of old Yang.
He does not care about the eyes of others, not ashamed, but proud.
The children and relatives all thought that he was an old color embryo and lost the face of the family.
When Lao Yang was out and happy, his wife fell out of bed and was unconscious.
Everyone in the family came to the hospital and waited anxiously, only Lao Yang, and no one could find any shadow.
The doctor said that the patient's operation cost at least 30,000 yuan, so they hurried to prepare.
As soon as it came to money, the family began to complain.
The sister-in-law said that the family had just purchased goods, still owed money, and every day someone chased debts, and really couldn't get it.
The second brother-in-law said that he had been nervous recently and could not take it out.
The third sister married to a foreign country and could not come to discuss.
In the end, everyone reached a consensus, no one suffered losses, and one family paid ten thousand, which was fair and reasonable.
When the sister-in-law heard The face of The Rama, she said that this father never helped with the children, and the mother-in-law also fell because of him, why live in their house, but also give so much money.
But the quarrel is over, and the money is still going to come out.
The second daughter put the money under her mother's pillow and planned to hand it over tomorrow morning.
Coincidentally, when the daughter put the money, she was seen by Lao Yang.
The old friend called again and said that he would come up tomorrow to take the camel to see a doctor.
Old Yang, who had no way out, could only steal money after his wife was asleep and buy a cow to give to his old friend.
When his old friend saw that he had sent more valuable cows, he was so moved that he could not speak.
Lao Yang said that when his son got married, the bride price was not enough, or the old friend sold two horses to get the money, and successfully let his son marry his daughter-in-law. He had always remembered the kindness of that year, and this time it should be the great favor of the year.
Although the son forgot these things, Lao Yang never forgot!
It seems that lao Yang this old bastard is not useless, he knows how to be grateful, and he is very righteous to his friends.
Over the years, he helped his children get married, helped them find jobs, and lent them money to buy a marriage house. The wife has been paralyzed for six or seven years, which day is not his care?
But there are always times when people are tired, and if they don't find some fun, they don't have much to do.
After Lao Yang returned home, he said that he would not gamble again in the future, and would help take care of his grandson and wife at home. It's just that none of his sons and daughters believe his lies, and he has said this promise many times.
The son-in-law asked him to sign a letter of agreement to ensure that there would be no more chaos in the future.
When Old Yang heard the fire, he scolded them as the Eight Lambs of the King and did not take his father in his eyes.
The son and daughter Xu Qi brushed up and held him down, and Old Yang inevitably bumped and injured during the struggle.
But let Lao Yang struggle to the death, or was tied up.
The son also forced him to press his fingerprints before tying him up in the hut, which was a punishment for stealing money from him.
Old Yang was angry and took out his mobile phone to call the police on 110, saying that he had been beaten by his sons.
At the scene of the mediation, the son scolded him for not being worthy of being a father, and even stole his mother's life-saving money.
Old Yang was not willing to show weakness, scolding them for not filial piety, and used to help them get married and buy a house, and in the end they beat him for a little money.
The more the family quarreled, the more fierce, And Lao Yang slammed the door in anger and threatened to sue them in prison.
After he calmed down, he regretted it again.
He hurried to withdraw the lawsuit, but he did not expect that it could not be withdrawn.
Old Yang had no choice but to bow his head and ask his nephew, who was a lawyer, for help, and his son-in-law was released.
Old Yang watched his son and son-in-law come out of the police station and ignored him.
Old Yang was now rebellious and separated.
He was very sad.
In order to make up for the old woman's surgery money, he rode to the neighboring city to find the youngest girl, but the son-in-law did not want to see him.
He could only pretend that something had happened and get up and leave, and returned to the hostel alone for the night.
He took the only money in his pocket to call, and without his son-in-law around, he could open his mouth to get money from his daughter.
When the son-in-law heard this, he resolutely opposed it, saying that he would unite with his brother-in-law and resolutely not to be busy with this dead old man.
The little daughter could not bear it, saying that her father hurt her the most since she was a child, and when she bought a house, her father also made a lot of efforts.
The son-in-law ignored it and insisted on not giving money to his father-in-law.
Old Yang came to the door again with a thick old face to ask for money, and the daughter only prepared a few packs of cigarettes and five hundred yuan, asking him to go back to take care of his mother as soon as possible.
Old Yang was sullen, saying that Bai had hurt her for so many years, and her daughter was silent.
Lao Yang was thus driven out of the house by his son-in-law.
Grumpy, he got into an argument with the conductor on the road, jumped out of the car with a choke, and threw the bag he was carrying into the river.
Old Yang was in a hurry and hurried to fish.
On the way, he was stopped by two intermediaries to buy a house, and he greeted his mother unceremoniously.
The two young men beat him up hard.
Old Yang, who had a blue nose and swollen face, was very embarrassed, and suddenly received a call from the hospital, saying that the operation fee was paid and that he could do the operation tomorrow.
Old Yang lit a cigarette and was relieved in his heart.
It turned out that after the youngest daughter called home, she learned that her father borrowed 6500 yuan not to squander it, but to make up for the operation.
The daughter's heart was not a taste, and she quickly made up the money.
It's just that the operation failed, and the wife can only be consumed in the hospital and will die at any time.
Old Yang knew that the root of their contradictions was the sick old woman.
It is said that there is no filial piety in front of the bed for a long time, and lao Yang is deeply touched by this.
He sat quietly in front of his wife and said that you should not suffer again, and do not cause them trouble, you go first, and then I will follow.
After saying that, he crushed the pills and added water to feed them to his wife.
After all this, he was so tired that he lay down on the sofa next to him.
This concludes the movie.
Old Yang knew that they could no longer help the children, but they still had to worry about their children's small lives.
The old woman is a burden, he is trouble.
After a long time, no one wants to see them.
He was not convinced, but the useless old Yang could no longer maintain the majesty and domineering spirit of the head of the family.
Old Yang was like an old beast, and he wanted to toss it twice when he had a breath.
It's just that he's old and doesn't have the strength to fight anymore.
He was like a white horse in a dream that had lost the prairie, a crow trapped within the wall.
All he could do was personally send away his wife, who had accompanied him all his life, and help his children to be liberated.
The children said that he was not worthy to be a father, but they, asking themselves, deserved to be the Son of Man?
Old Yang is selfish, but the children are more selfish than him.
They will only choose to pay for their mothers without losing money after weighing the benefits and losses.
Imagine if Lao Yang had not fallen down and remained as beautiful as ever, the children would have looked differently to him?
In this way, is blood thicker than water or material interests that bind family relations?
