The son asked his mother and his wife to get a marriage certificate, but his wife disagreed, and found a rich woman a month later

Man, you can't be too good at the abacus. If you are too fine, you will lose what you shouldn't have lost.

In March, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the spring flowers bloom, which is a good time to go out and breathe fresh air.

Daming's mother fell ill.

Da Ming, his younger brother Erming, and his third brother Sanming all thought that their mother was tired of weeding in the rape field.

Only their mothers themselves know what is going on.

01

It's been more than a decade since their father died. In the autumn of the previous year, through the introduction of others, my mother and a widower in his 60s from a neighboring village lived together.

My mother moved in. Lao Zhangtou loves cleanliness and cleans up his home spotlessly, even the capable young daughter-in-law in the village can't compare.

The old Zhang Tou is diligent, and the housework does not need to be interfered by Daming's mother. I also cook a good dish, which is not the same almost every day.

It can be said that all day long, Daming's mother almost stretched out her hand to eat to open her mouth.

In addition, there is no need for Daming's mother to spend money, and more than 100 pension money can be saved every month. Coupled with a few acres of crops at home, the old lady can still have about 3,000 yuan left a year. This was unthinkable before.

The old lady sighed: I didn't expect to be old and old, and I can still enjoy this blessing.

02

recalled that when she was young, Daming's father was alive, and it was polite not to scold her. At that time, all the housework was hers.

finally pulled the three sons up, and all of them became independent, and the three sons all bought houses in the county.

Sometimes he took turns staying with his three sons for a few days. As a result, every time she went, the daughters-in-law all seemed to have discussed it, and they all did the housework, and the housework at home was left to her, and there was no intention of letting her mother-in-law enjoy leisure.

Sometimes, she even has to pick up her grandchildren to and from school.

Since then, she has been visiting her sons' homes less often than she has done each year. Every time, they called her to go, and the reason for going was to help their respective families pick up and drop off their children to study.

03

Most of the time, Daming's mother is alone in her hometown.

In this village, which once had hundreds of households in the ravine, only a dozen elderly families are still left, and most of them have moved to the city with their children.

The mountain village is quiet, and the home is even more deserted. In a huge yard, she is alone day and night, and there are few neighbors.

In the winter night, the birds at this end of the village can be heard clearly at the other end of the village hundreds of meters away.

It was eerily quiet in the room.

Sometimes the sudden ringing of the mobile phone will scare the old lady who is watching TV.

Once, when the old lady had an upset stomach at night, she got up and went to the toilet to relieve her big hands, and when she opened the bedroom door, there was a figure in the west corner of the courtyard in a trance.

In an instant, the old lady was so frightened that she couldn't move, and froze in place.

A gust of wind blew, and the "figure" kept swaying from side to side, making a "swish" sound. She realized that it was the ginkgo tree in the corner that was causing trouble.

So, I thought in my heart that tomorrow I must take an axe and cut down this broken tree.

In the autumn of the previous year, an old sister who married outside the ravine and whose home was close to the national highway introduced her to a family business.

The other party is a "young" old man who has been widowed for many years, and the old sister calls him "Old Zhangtou".

When you say you're young, you're not young anymore. is only one year younger than her, but the old Zhang Tou is very energetic, and he doesn't look like a farmer, but like a retired worker, and he is polite.

As soon as the two of them met and chatted, they were quite satisfied.

Soon, Daming's mother moved over and lived with Lao Zhangtou.

Lao Zhangtou has two sons, both of whom work in large enterprises in big cities, have families, stable incomes, and live happily ever after.

These two sons are also very supportive of the old man and Daming's mother living together.

Before the Spring Festival at the end of that year, Lao Zhangtou's two sons returned to their hometown with their respective daughters-in-law and children to celebrate the New Year.

Each son gave Daming's mother a thousand yuan of New Year's money, which scared Daming's mother. The daughters-in-law also bought new clothes and shoes for Daming's mother. Open your mouth and shut up to call your mother, you really treat the old lady like your own mother.

The old lady has received this preferential treatment, and she can't close her mouth happily, and she shirks not to press the New Year's money.

Lao Zhangtou's eldest son said: Mom, with you with my dad, we don't know how happy and relieved we are juniors! This red envelope is a festive picture for the New Year, you must not be too little!

Everybody loves to hear that. Daming's mother smiled and tearfully accepted the New Year's money, while remembering that she had never received a single dollar of New Year's money from her sons during the New Year. Several grandchildren are always pestering her to press the New Year's money.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Daming's mother's mobile phone accidentally fell to the ground, and the screen fell so badly that it couldn't be used.

Lao Zhangtou's second son happened to see it, and without saying a word, he drove to the county seat and spent more than 2,000 yuan to buy a brand new smartphone for Daming's mother.

When the brothers learned that their mother had come down for the Spring Festival, they had a full harvest, and they changed their plan not to go to their mother to pay New Year's greetings. Several people discussed that they would "form a group" to visit their mother on the morning of the sixth day of the new year.

As a result, I went late, and my two sons drove off to return to the city where they worked early in the morning.

But this guy didn't run for nothing.

Lao Zhangtou was generous and gave 500 yuan to each child of the three brothers, a total of five children, that is, 2,500 yuan. Before leaving, he divided the fish and various meats in the freezer with his family. It's enough for the three brothers to eat for a few days.

What did the three brothers take when they went to pay New Year's greetings?

A family has a carton of milk for about 40 yuan, a box of snacks, and ten twist flowers. As the name suggests, this is what my mother loves to eat. In total, it cost less than a hundred dollars.

Looking at the New Year's gifts sent by her sons, Daming's mother was obviously embarrassed, so she had to explain to her sons: They have a heavy burden on their families, don't you mind, in fact, these are the same for me in previous years......

The old man didn't care about this, and said indifferently: The conditions of each family are different, as long as the babies have a heart. It's good to come and see us and give us New Year's greetings.

In this way, as long as it is a New Year's holiday, as long as the three brothers of Daming come to the door, the old man will definitely not let him leave empty-handed, and he will give his grandson pocket money when he comes.

05

On the eighth day of the first month of this year, Daming gave his eldest son a "finished light" in the hotel (a coming-of-age ceremony for children who reached the age of 13 in Guanzhong, Shaanxi), and Daming's mother received a notice and came with Lao Zhangtou.

Lao Zhangtou gave a gift of 1,000 yuan, which is relatively high among relatives. Because the brothers Erming and Sanming followed only a thousand.

That night, when the relatives were gone, Da Ming left his two younger brothers behind and went to his house to discuss things.

Da Ming proposed that our mother can't live like this with Lao Zhangtou all the time, and she has no name and no share.

Sanming asked: Big brother, what do you say you should do?

Erming immediately understood what Da Ming meant: Big brother, did you let your mother and Lao Zhangtou get married?

Da Ming's eyes lit up, and he looked at Er Ming approvingly and said: Yes, that's what it means, let our mother and the old man get the marriage certificate. From now on, they will be a family in law.

The three brothers agreed. A few days later, under the pretext that his grandson missed his grandmother, Daming went to take his mother to his house.

The old lady went to Daming's house to see that her three sons were there. Don't know what that means.

Da Ming took the lead and told his mother the idea that had been discussed.

Erming and Sanming also followed to help, advocating that his mother hurry up and get the marriage certificate with Lao Zhangtou.

Da Ming said: Mom, you see, this old Zhang Tou is so good to you, and his family conditions are good, and he doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking, but the two of you are not married, just living together. If he doesn't want you one day, won't he delay you?

Er Ming also followed and said: That's it, Mom! If you marry Uncle Zhang, you will be legally a family in the future, and the law will protect your relationship. Otherwise, if you two break up halfway, you won't get anything! Won't that delay you! If you get a marriage certificate with Uncle Zhang, you will be old in the future, and you can bury yourself with him, and the three of us will have no opinion! Big brother and third brother, what do you say?

Da Ming and Sanming also expressed their stance and agreed to bury their mother and Lao Zhangtou together in the future.

After being persuaded by her sons, the mother agreed.

06

So, Daming's mother went back and told Lao Zhangtou what her sons thought.

When Lao Zhangtou heard this, he was not very happy.

Lao Zhangtou said, we are all old people, I don't think there is any need to get a marriage certificate. If we really get along, it doesn't make much difference whether there is that piece of paper or not. Don't worry, even if you don't have a marriage certificate, I won't treat you badly.

Lao Zhangtou said, you see that we have been together for more than a year, and you know who I am. You don't have to take a penny for your pocket money and living expenses at home, and you don't have to take care of housework. I'm used to doing it myself. It's good for the two of us to talk to each other all day, what do you say?

Daming's mother said, I am relieved of you, you are good, I know.

Lao Zhangtou went on to say, if you get sick, I will show you a minor illness, I can afford this money, needless to say that the money given by my two sons is the money I have saved, plus the annual harvest in the field, it is enough. If you have a serious illness or something, and your sons take the big head, I can also make a small head. Please understand this. After all, seeing a serious illness costs a lot and I can't afford it alone, and it's not the same thing for me to ask my son for money. If I get sick, no matter how big or small, I don't have to worry about it, I'll solve it myself.

Daming's mother was a little unhappy in her heart, and her mouth was "uh-uh".

Lao Zhangtou continued, as for what you said in the future, we will be buried together when we are old, I don't think it's appropriate. You see, we are both married people, although our respective wives are gone, but they are also the original husband and wife, how can there be a reason for you and me to be buried together? If a hundred years later, we must be buried with our respective original partners?

Speaking of which, Lao Zhangtou made it clear that he did not agree with the two people to get a marriage certificate, and he wanted to maintain the status quo and continue to live together.

Although the old Zhang Tou people are sincere, they are not stupid. I understand that these ideas were all made by Brother Daming.

Brother Daming's purpose is obvious, that is, he wants to push the responsibility of supporting his mother to Lao Zhangtou and his two sons by letting his mother marry Lao Zhangtou.

As long as Lao Zhangtou and Daming's mother receive a marriage certificate, then his old mother's pension, life, medical treatment and even funeral are all matters of Lao Zhangtou's family, and there is no need for the three burdens of Brother Daming.

If you don't do it, maybe you can be cheeky and ask for some "property" in the future.

Brother Da Ming is very shrewd in his small abacus. But Lao Zhangtou is not an ordinary person, he saw through their tricks and was not fooled.

07

Lao Zhangtou did not agree to get the certificate. Da Ming continued to give the old mother ideas and asked his mother to temporarily move out of Lao Zhangtou's house and dry him.

In the way of the Cold War, an old man is used to being lonely, and after a while, he will definitely change his mind, please go back!

Da Ming also named his perfect plan "Drawing Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron".

Daming's mother put away her clothes, moved out of Lao Zhangtou's house, and returned to her hometown in the ravine.

Lao Zhangtou just sent her out of the courtyard, not to the entrance of the village as usual.

Da Ming's mother felt a little cold, and she didn't feel quite right.

But the steps taken, the water spilled, can not be taken back.

I can only hope that Daming's "salary draw from the bottom of the kettle" can succeed as desired.

In a flash, a month passed, and Lao Zhangtou not only didn't invite her, but didn't even make a phone call.

Two months have passed, and there are still no calls.

In the third month, suddenly a piece of news came.

Lao Zhangtou found another wife, only fifty-seven or eighteen years old, not yet sixty years old, it is said that the family is quite rich, there are several properties, and a pair of children are abroad.

When Da Ming's mother heard the news, she was shocked, scared, and a little incredulous.

So, I hurriedly called the old sister in the same village as Lao Zhangtou.

The old sister said that the news was true, and sometimes the woman drove with a large bag to Lao Zhangtou's house to stay for a few days. Sometimes I drove Lao Zhangtou to the city to live for a few days. The two of them are as sweet as a newlywed.

After saying this, the old sister counted Da Ming's mother again:

Such a good wife, why don't you know how to cherish it? You too, when you did this, you didn't say that you would discuss it with me, but it turned out to be like this, and I was embarrassed to talk to Lao Zhangtou!

Daming's mother was in a hurry, and fell ill at once, with high blood pressure and a heart attack, and stayed in the hospital for a month.

postscript

When lying on the hospital bed, Da Ming's mother often regretted:

Do you blame the three sons? No, you still have to blame yourself, if you hadn't moved that thought, there would be no follow-up incident.

People, don't be too shrewd. Too shrewd, often losing even the most basic things.
