Li Ming is an ordinary office worker, with a stable job and a well-off life. He and his wife Zhang Li have been married for many years, and their relationship has always been very good. Both are only children, so they have the responsibility of supporting their parents.
One day, Li Ming received a call from his father, who informed him that his and his mother's pensions were no longer enough, and he hoped that he could help share some of the expenses. Li Ming immediately said that he would try to help. He knows that the issue of his parents' pension is a thorny one, and he needs not only financial support, but also spiritual comfort.
"Dad, don't worry, you and Mom, I will definitely help with this. As a family, we need to help each other through this difficult time. Li Ming said in a sincere tone.
"Good boy, you are really my pride. Don't worry, your mother and I will live frugally and won't burden you too much. Father said with relief.
After Li Ming hung up the phone, he sighed softly. He knew that his parents' pension problems could not be ignored, but at the same time, he was worried that it would bring some pressure to his and his wife's lives. After all, they also have to pay for the mortgage and other living expenses.
Just when Li Ming was immersed in his thoughts, his wife Zhang Li pushed the door in, with a bright smile on her face: "Husband, guess what? Our house has finally been added to my name!"
Li Ming was stunned for a moment, and then reacted: "What? Your name has also been added? That's really good! We have finally become co-property owners." "
He hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his wife, and the two hugged each other, ecstatic. This house was bought many years after they got married, and it has always been in Li Ming's name. Now the wife's name has also been added, which undoubtedly increases her sense of security.
"Yes, when I went to do it today, the procedures went smoothly. However, I am also a little worried, after all, I will continue to repay the loan in the future. Zhang Li frowned slightly.
"It's okay, as long as the two of us work together, we will definitely be able to repay the loan smoothly. We have to help each other as a family and get through this together. Li Ming said with a smile.
At this moment, Zhang Li's mobile phone rang. She picked up the phone, and her face suddenly became a little ugly.
"What's the matter, wife, what's wrong?" Li Ming asked with concern.
"My parents said that their pension was not enough and that they hoped we could help. Zhang Li sighed and said.
Li Ming was silent for a moment, and then comforted: "It's okay, our family must unite and help each other." Don't worry, we'll find a way to help your parents. "
In the face of various challenges in the future, Li Ming chooses to face them with a positive and optimistic attitude. He believes that as long as the husband and wife work hand in hand, they will be able to tide over the difficulties together and create a better future.
In this way, Li Ming and Zhang Li's family began to work hard to cope with the next challenges.
"It seems that our living expenses will be appropriately reduced this month. Zhang Li said worriedly.
"It doesn't matter, as long as we all work together, I'm sure we'll get through it. Li Ming comforted.
At the same time, Li Ming also took the initiative to communicate with his parents, hoping that their parents could also save money appropriately and reduce their burden as much as possible.
"Dad, Mom, I've discussed with Lili, and we'll give some money every month to help you. But at the same time, I hope that you can be appropriate and economical to reduce our burden as much as possible. Li Ming said sincerely.
"Good boy, you guys are so nice. Your mom and I will try to save as much as we can, but as we get older, some expenses are inevitable. Don't push yourselves too hard, take care of your own life. Father said gratefully.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, we will take good care of ourselves. As long as we are united, I believe we will be able to get through this difficult time. Li Ming said solemnly.
After dealing with the problem of their parents' pension, Li Ming and Zhang Li began to solve the problem of housing loans. Although Zhang Li's name has been added to the house book, the two of them still need to repay the loan together every month.
"Husband, our mortgage is due again this month, what do you think we should do?" Zhang Li asked worriedly.
"It's okay, as long as the two of us work together, we will definitely be able to repay the loan on time. Li Ming comforted.
As a result, they began to look for ways to save money and spend more money on their mortgage. For example, reduce eating out and cook more home-cooked food; Temporarily give up some recreational activities; Try to reduce electricity and water, etc.
"Husband, our expenses this month are really over budget. Why don't we save some more?" Zhang Li said with some concern.
"It doesn't matter, as long as we persevere, we will definitely be able to repay the loan on time. We have to help each other as a family and get through this together. Li Ming said firmly.
With the joint efforts of Li Ming and Zhang Li, they finally paid off this month's mortgage on schedule. Although life is a little tight, neither of them complains, but cherishes each other more.
In this way, Li Ming's family began a difficult time. In addition to their own living expenses every month, they also have to share their parents' pension expenses and mortgage repayment. Life is indeed a bit tight, but they all insist on facing it with a positive and optimistic attitude.
In order to save money, Li Ming and Zhang Li had to give up a lot of their usual entertainment activities. They cut back on eating out and try to cook at home; Some unnecessary consumption is omitted; Even electricity and water use are starting to be saved.
"Husband, I think our expenses this month are still a little over budget. Why don't we find a way to save some?" Zhang Li said with some concern.
"It's okay, dear. As long as we persevere, we will definitely be able to get through this difficult time. We need to help each other as a family and create a better future together. Li Ming comforted.
Although life is indeed a little tight, Li Ming and Zhang Li have never complained. On the contrary, they cherish each other more and cherish the present life. The two often chat over dinner and share their joys and sorrows.
"Husband, do you know? Today when I was shopping for groceries at the supermarket, I saw the kind of dessert that we used to like the most. I was tempted to buy it, but in the end I held back. Zhang Li said with some regret.
"It's okay, dear. I know life is a bit hard right now, but as long as we persevere, we will be able to get through it. We need to help each other as a family and create a better future together. Li Ming said softly.
Hearing her husband's words, Zhang Li's eyes flashed with emotion. She reached out to hold Li Ming's hand and whispered, "Husband, I really love you so much." With you, I'm not afraid of anything. "
Li Minghui held his wife's hand and said dotingly, "I love you too, my dear." We will definitely get through this difficult time, and I believe that our family will be able to create a better tomorrow. "
At this moment, Li Ming's mobile phone rang. He picked up the phone, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.
"What's the matter, husband, who called?" Zhang Li asked with concern.
"It was the bank who called, saying that our mortgage repayment was overdue this month. Li Ming sighed and said.
"What? How can this be? We've been trying to save as much as we can. Zhang Li said anxiously.
"It may be because we have to take care of our parents' pension expenses, which has caused problems with our income and expenditure this month. Li Ming said heavily.
The two fell silent. They all know that if this month's mortgage payment is overdue again, the consequences can be very serious. After all, the house is their entire savings.
"Husband, what should we do? Why don't we discuss with the bank and see if we can postpone the repayment?" Zhang Li said anxiously.
"I don't know what to do. However, we must find a way to pay off this month's mortgage as soon as possible. Otherwise, we might lose the house. Li Ming said worriedly.
As a result, Li Ming and Zhang Li began to look around for additional sources of income. Both of them worked overtime in hopes of earning more money. At the same time, Li Ming also took the initiative to negotiate with the bank, hoping to get some grace period.
Thanks to the efforts of Li Ming and Zhang Li, they finally managed to raise the mortgage this month. However, it has also made their lives more strained. In order to pay off their mortgage, they have had to drastically reduce their living expenses, and even the cost of their parents' retirement has been delayed.
"Husband, we're really strapped for this month. We don't even have enough money for our parents. Zhang Li said worriedly.
"I know, dear. But we must now focus on paying off our mortgages. When we settle down, we will definitely take good care of our parents. Li Ming comforted.
At this moment, Zhang Li's parents also called, eagerly asking when this month's pension fee would be remitted.
"Dad, Mom, I'm really sorry, we are so tight this month that we can't remit your pension expenses for the time being. But we'll get to the bottom of it as soon as possible, so please give us some more time. Zhang Li said apologetically.
"What? You can't even remit our pension money this month? What can we do?" Zhang Li's father said anxiously.
"Mom, Dad, we're really sorry. This month we have to focus on paying off our mortgage. When we settle down, we'll take good care of you. Please give us some more time. Zhang Li pleaded.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Li couldn't help but shed tears. She was so worried about her parents' lives that she couldn't help them right away.
"Husband, I'm really worried about my parents. Their pension is no longer enough, and we can't even give them this month's money. What should I do?" Zhang Li choked up.
"Don't be sad, dear. We'll definitely figure it out. When we pay off our mortgage this month, we will definitely take good care of our parents. I'm sure our family will be able to get through it. Li Ming comforted.
At this moment, Li Ming's mobile phone rang. He picked up the phone, and his face suddenly became very ugly.
"What's the matter, husband, who called?" Zhang Li asked worriedly.
"It was the bank who called and said that if we still overdue our mortgage payments this month, they would take legal action against us. Li Ming sighed and said.
Hearing the news, Zhang Li's face turned pale with fright. She knew that if they did lose the house, it would be a huge blow to them.
"Husband, what are we going to do? Are we really going to lose this house?" Zhang Li asked anxiously.
"I don't know what to do. But we must find a way to pay off this month's mortgage as soon as possible. Otherwise, we may really have to leave the house. Li Ming said worriedly.
Just when the two were in despair, Li Ming's parents suddenly came to their house.
"Dad, Mom, why are you here?" Li Ming said with some surprise.
"We've heard you've had a problem with your mortgage this month, so we're here to check on you. Li Ming's father said.
"Mom, Dad, I'm sorry. We are so strapped for this month that we can't even remit your pension expenses. Now that the bank is going to take legal action against us, we really don't know what to do. Li Ming said helplessly.
"Don't worry, kid. Mom and Dad know that your situation is not easy. So we came up with a way to help you. Li Ming's mother said softly.
Li Ming and Zhang Li glanced at each other, their eyes full of doubts and expectations. They don't know what kind of solution Li Ming's parents will come up with to help them tide over the difficulties.
"Dad, Mom, what the hell do you do?" Li Ming asked eagerly.
"We know that your current economic situation is indeed not easy. So we discussed it and decided to give you our pension in advance. This way, you can pay off this month's mortgage first, and we will collect it later. Li Ming's father said kindly.
"What? Mom, Dad, are you really willing to do this?" Li Ming said in surprise.
"Of course, kid. As parents, we hope most than to help you through this difficult time. How can we sit idly by and watch you carry such a heavy burden right now?" Li Ming's mother said softly.
Hearing their parents' proposal, Li Ming and Zhang Li were suddenly choked with emotion. They never expected their parents to be so generous in reaching out, and it swept away the worries in their hearts.
"Mom, Dad, thank you so much. With you here, our family will be able to tide over the difficulties together. Li Ming said excitedly.
"You're welcome, good boy. As parents, we should help you. You have to take care of yourselves now, and we'll come back to the pension in a while. Li Ming's father said with relief.
In this way, with the help of their parents, Li Ming and Zhang Li finally paid off the mortgage this month. The two were relieved, and their hearts were filled with gratitude and hope.
"Husband, I'm really grateful to my parents. With them, our family will be able to create a better future together. Zhang Li said excitedly.
"Yes, dear. As a family, we need to help each other through this difficult time. I believe that as long as we are united, we will be able to overcome the difficulties ahead. Li Ming said with relief.
At this moment, Zhang Li's parents also called.
"Lili, we heard that you have a problem with your mortgage this month, right?" Zhang Li's father asked eagerly.
"Mom, Dad, I'm sorry. We are so strapped for this month that we can't even remit your pension expenses. However, fortunately, Li Ming's parents reached out and helped us through the difficulties. Zhang Li said apologetically.
"What? Uncle and Aunt Li helped you through this? That's great!" Zhang Li's mother said with relief.
Hearing that Zhang Li's parents were so happy, Li Ming and Zhang Li suddenly felt extra warm. They realized that during this difficult time, it was not only their parents who reached out to help, but even Zhang Li's parents were also concerned about their situation.
"Mom, Dad, thank you so much. With your support and understanding, we will be able to tide over this as a family. Zhang Li said movingly.
"Lili, don't worry. You have to take care of yourselves now, and we'll come back to see you later. Hopefully, the family will be able to reunite and have a good time together. Zhang Li's mother said softly.
"Okay, Dad, Mom. We will definitely take good care of ourselves. After a while, we will definitely invite you to our home. Zhang Li said happily.
After hanging up the phone, Li Ming and Zhang Li looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of happiness and gratitude. They realized that despite the difficult situation in front of them, with the support and understanding of their families, everything would be better.
"Husband, I really appreciate your parents. With them, we can get through the difficulties together as a family. Zhang Li said movingly.
"Yes, dear. We need to help each other as a family and create a better future together. As long as we are united, we will be able to overcome the difficulties ahead. Li Ming said with relief.
At this moment, Li Ming's mobile phone rang. He picked up the phone and found out it was from the bank.
"Hey, hello, I'm Li Ming. What's the matter?" Li Ming asked with some concern.
"Mr. Li, I am your bank manager. I would like to inform you of the good news that your mortgage has been paid off smoothly this month. The bank manager said pleasantly.
"What? It's already paid off? How is that possible?" Li Ming said in surprise.
"Yes, Mr. Lee. We have received a notification that you have repaid the loan in full. I would like to express my gratitude to you and also wish you all the best in your life. Said the bank manager.
After hanging up the phone, Li Ming excitedly told Zhang Li the good news. The two were immediately overjoyed and hugged each other tightly.
"Husband, that's great! We're finally getting through it. With the help of your parents, our family will be able to create a better future. Zhang Li said with relief.

At this moment, Li Ming's parents also came to their house. Seeing the joyful appearance of the two, Li Ming's parents also felt sincerely happy.
"Kids, it looks like you've gotten through it. I'm so happy for you. Li Ming's father said kindly.
"Mom, Dad, thank you so much. With your help, we can create a better future together as a family. Li Ming said gratefully.

In this way, with each other's support and understanding, Li Ming's family has overcome one difficulty after another together. They not only solved the immediate financial difficulties, but also strengthened the relationship between the family members.
Time flies, and a few years have passed in the blink of an eye. Li Ming and Zhang Li's lives are gradually getting on track.
"Husband, look, our house has been paid off. We can finally be the owners of this house in the name of right. Zhang Li said excitedly.
