It is said that raising children to prevent old age, but when you meet those who don't want children, how should they spend their old age? And who wants to take responsibility and provide for them?
My third uncle is one of them, he has been dinkbed all his life, and in the end he has to take care of me, which is my responsibility, and it is understandable.
But I have worked hard for ten years, who would have thought that in exchange for such a result, the moment I saw the third uncle's will, my grievances gushed out, and the next day the third uncle was sent to a nursing home, and no longer had any contact with him.
01
My family is just a daughter of mine, and my parents grew up in the palm of their hands, so to speak, I am a little princess at home, after getting married, my husband also spoils me the same, and I am almost ten fingers at home.
Then such days lasted until the third uncle fell ill and was hospitalized, and I, the "little princess", took on the task of taking care of the third uncle, just because my third uncle had no children and no daughters in his life, and his wife ran away with others.
Doesn't it sound very pitiful, and people's sympathy rises all of a sudden, but there is a saying that is right, poor people must have something to hate, and all this is caused by the third uncle.
Before the grandmother died, although the third uncle was the eldest in the family, he was not so favored, on the contrary, it was the father who was favored.
My father is the eldest in the family, and he has been quite sensible since he was a child, and he has shared a lot of responsibilities for his grandparents, and his grandmother is a little partial to his father, so the third uncle has quarreled with his grandmother, but every time his grandmother is not painful or itchy.
My father told me that he was also very puzzled at that time, and it stands to reason that the third uncle was the eldest in the family and a boy, and he was very favored in that era.
But grandma just doesn't like the third uncle, and grandma's dislike attitude is very obvious, grandpa sometimes can't look past it and will say a few words, but grandpa is a door-to-door son-in-law, so he has no right to speak at home.
It wasn't until grandma died that everyone understood why they were like that to the third uncle, it turned out that the third uncle was not his own, but his grandfather brought it back from the outside, grandma was reluctant at first, but for the sake of being a boy, she acquiesced.
Not long after grandma died, grandpa brought back a step-grandmother, this step-grandmother was very good to the third uncle, so that everyone suspected that the third uncle was actually the grandmother's child, but to this day, no one can give a definite answer to this speculation, but the third uncle's life has changed dramatically.
Whether it is a step-grandmother or a grandfather, they all like the third uncle, so all the good things in the family will be close to the third uncle first, and when the third uncle does not use it, the rest will be used by the father and aunt.
At the beginning, the conditions of the family were a little bad, and only one child could go to high school, and this place should have fallen on the father who studied best, but because of the grandmother, this place finally fell on the third uncle.
My father also quarreled with my grandfather for the place in school, but my grandfather has always been a man who is afraid of his daughter-in-law.
The third uncle's study was obvious to everyone, and in the end, as everyone thought, he was not admitted to university, and his father ran away from home because of school and went out on his own.
The aunt felt that there was no place for her in that family, so she chose to marry early, and the remaining three people in the family were more like a family of three.
As time passed, my father met my mother when he was working hard, and he also settled in a big city, and rarely contacted people in his hometown.
Suddenly, one day my father received a strange phone call, and a familiar voice came from there that was the third uncle, it turned out that the grandfather was gone, and the third uncle called to ask my father to go back.
My father was haunted by the events of that year and didn't want to go back, but in the end he relented, thinking that it was his own father, and took me and my mother back to my hometown to mourn.
02
After arriving at his hometown, he learned that the third uncle called his father back not to run for the funeral at all, but to let his father pay for the funeral.
He said that he had no work income for so many years, and he couldn't afford to bury his grandfather, and if his father and aunt didn't take the money, then he would bury his grandfather casually.
No one thought that the third uncle would be so unfilial, he just ate his father to death and his aunt would not ignore his grandfather, his father was too lazy to argue with the third uncle, and discussed with the aunt, and the two families decided to take out the money and send the grandfather away.
Because the aunt is the daughter who goes out, she can only get a small amount of money, which is equivalent to the entire funeral of the grandfather, which is handled by the father.
Who would have thought that our family's efforts were thankless, don't look at our family for grandpa, even so, it is still my third uncle who has a good reputation in the village, and the most we say is "yes, it's really unfilial to not go home for so many years outside!" ”
Others said, "If you earn money outside, you don't say that you come back to help your family, and you know that you are blessed!" "And so on and so forth, and there are even worse things to say, and the author of all this knows who it is without asking.
It must be that my father was arranged in the village all day, and the villagers were so dissatisfied with my family, but my father didn't think so, people were doing it, the sky was watching, and my father said that as long as I could do things worthy of my conscience.
We planned to leave after taking care of our grandfather's funeral in our hometown, but the third uncle insisted that my father take the two of them away, saying that he also wanted to go to the city to develop.
How could this father agree, in case he was entangled and more troublesome, he knew that the third uncle was lazy and lazy, and marrying a daughter-in-law was also like this, it was not that the family did not enter the door, so that the two of them were exceptionally unified in the matter of not having children.
Not long after grandpa left, grandma fell when she went to the toilet one night because no one took care of her, and because she was not sent to the hospital in time, she also left, so that only the third uncle and third aunt were left in the family.
Originally, I thought that the days would be like this, our family and the third uncle's house will not violate the river water in the future, there is nothing to contact, there is something to call, who would have thought that the third uncle would come to the door by himself.
That day, my father called me and called me over, saying that the third uncle was coming, and I rushed to the past with my husband in a daze.
When I really saw the third uncle, I was stunned, the third uncle became very old, full of gray hair, the whole person was also thin and out of appearance, and he was still in a wheelchair, which was completely different from the high-spirited third uncle I saw in my hometown.
Father said that the third uncle was sent here, the third uncle slept outside after drinking in his hometown and had a stroke, and the third aunt went out to play in addition to playing mahjong every day, and didn't care about the third uncle at all.
The third uncle is hungry and full, and the neighbors around him can't stand it and will help take care of it, but every time he intervenes in the care, he will be scolded by the third aunt, or standing at the entrance of the village and scolding, how ugly it is.
This is later, the village chief really couldn't stand it, so he asked someone to help send the third uncle to my house, the aunt is a married girl, and she has no obligation to take care of this side anymore, even if she can manage it, the aunt won't care, and she hates the third uncle to death.
Back then, it was the third uncle who poked his grandfather to marry his aunt to a fool in the village as a daughter-in-law, just because the bride price given by the family was high, if the aunt hadn't escaped, she would have really been pushed into the fire pit.
Now that the third uncle is like this, it's too late for the aunt to hide, how can he take care of it, just like this, the third uncle lived in my father's house, and he looked like a brother in the past, but in a blink of an eye, he became like this, and his father's heart couldn't be hard for a while.
The father began to take care of the third uncle, and at first the mother strongly refused, because the mother knew about the affairs of the father's house from the time she was with the father, even if she had not returned to her hometown several times, but she was resistant to the people in her hometown.
There was no way for my father to ask me for help, and I couldn't watch my third uncle fall into the streets, but I didn't want to watch my father suffer, so I discussed with my husband and took on the task of taking care of my third uncle.
03
At this point, I am very grateful that I have a good husband, my husband agreed without thinking about it, and took over the responsibility of taking care of the third uncle, because the third uncle is a man, and it is inconvenient for me to take care of it.
Under the care of my husband and me, the third uncle recovered very well, from not being able to walk in a wheelchair at the beginning, to only the left half was not very flexible, and the rest was like a normal person, and he could take care of himself independently.
One care is ten years, during which the direct relationship between the father and the third uncle has made a qualitative leap, and the third aunt has also come to find the third uncle, but every time the third uncle avoids it.
Slowly, the third aunt stopped coming, and the third uncle was equivalent to completely settling down in our family, and my father discussed with me, the third uncle did not have a child in his life, and I was the only junior in the family, so he wanted me to give the third uncle a pension.
I thought that I had been taking care of them for so many years anyway, and my father's advice was not impossible, but just when my husband and I were about to discuss, when my husband was tidying up the third uncle's room, he accidentally saw the third uncle's hidden will.
I was shocked when I saw the will, I didn't expect that I and my husband had paid for so many years, but they couldn't match a third aunt who abandoned him.
The third uncle left all the inheritance left to him by himself and his grandfather to the third aunt, and it also explained that I should take care of him as a niece, and it is my responsibility, so there is no need to share his inheritance, and the third aunt has followed him for so many years, which is what the third aunt deserves.
After reading the contents, I took the will and let my father see it, although this will is not recognized, it is enough to show where the third uncle's heart is.
After reading the will, my father immediately decided to send the third uncle to a nursing home, and the future life and death have nothing to do with our family, he has money in his hands, and he can live well in the nursing home, which is better than giving it all to the third aunt in the end.
As soon as the third uncle left, my heart suddenly emptied a lot, after all, it was the person who had taken care of me for so many years, and it was false to say that there was no family affection, but I don't understand why the third uncle's heart has not been warmed for so many years.
But I always believe that home is a place of family affection, the third uncle is just an example, home is a warm harbor, no matter what kind of suffering you suffer outside, you can stop for a moment when you get home.
Now that society is developing faster and faster, there are many families, maybe only at night will be reunited, children come back from school, adults come back from work, the family around the dinner table talking about the anecdotes encountered today, such a family is bland but very happy.
Those who are wandering abroad should always believe that home is your strongest backing, and that no matter how much you are bullied outside, your parents will always be able to support you without fear.
Just like my father, he will choose his children at the first time and cry out for his children!
