When Song Yutang returned home, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Xiulan sitting on the sofa wiping tears.
The circles under his eyes were red, and he had obviously been crying for a long time.
Song Yutang felt nervous and hurriedly came up and sat next to her. "Mom, why are you crying?"
Li Xiulan couldn't hold it anymore, and tears fell from his eyes. "Just now your uncle called and said that your grandma... was gone... He said he had no money for medical treatment, so he hung himself with a rope..."
Song Yutang was stunned for a moment.
Old Madam Li was very lively when he went to a restaurant and said he had liver cancer, but he looked like he wanted to eat Li Xiulan alive.
Not long after that, it was gone.
Li Xiulan wiped her tears and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. "I know that my mother values boys over girls. In her mind, I am just a piece of grass and my two brothers are the treasure. But after all, she gave birth to me and raised me. Suddenly I heard that she was dead and she hanged herself... It feels very uncomfortable. Our family is not short of money now. If we had given her some money to see a doctor, maybe she would not have died..."
Song Yutang came back to his senses and quickly held her hand. "Mom, this is not your fault. You gave her the money for medical treatment. That much money is enough for her to find a good hospital in the local area and die peacefully. It's just that she loves her children and grandchildren, and herself Just give them the life-saving money to squander it. No matter how much money you give, it won't be used on grandma in the end. The fact that things have come to this point is because grandma couldn't bear the consequences, and it was also caused by the unfilial uncles. You have done your best, there is no need to blame yourself."
Li Xiulan felt a little better, but was still wiping away tears. "It's true... but I suddenly heard that my mother was gone, and I felt really uncomfortable. My father died in the first few years, and I only have this mother left..."
Song Yutang can understand.
My mother-in-law is always a kind and honest person. Even if she encounters a stranger committing suicide, she feels uncomfortable, let alone her biological mother.
Especially this matter, it has something to do with her.
She hugged Li Xiulan gently. "Mom, in this world, everyone has his or her own fate. As a daughter, you have done your best to be kind and righteous. We ordinary people cannot be perfect in life and work, as long as we can live up to our own conscience."
Li Xiulan sighed and wiped his tears, hesitating. "Then do you think I should go to the funeral? Your uncle said that he would stay at home for three days and the funeral will be held three days later... Should I go to see her off for the last time?"
Song Yutang was silent for a moment. "Mom, she is your mother. It is up to you to decide whether to go or not."
Li Xiulan thought about it for a long time, and finally said, "I still want to send her on her last journey. After all, it was she who gave birth to me... Sending her on her last journey will be the fulfillment of the lifelong friendship between mother and daughter."
Song Yutang nodded. "Well, let's go."
The deceased was very old, and she was her biological mother.
Old Madam Li is indeed excessive, but everyone dies, and in the end, the love between mother and daughter in Quan Yiquan's life is also human nature.
Li Xiulan suddenly rolled his eyes, and his tone became more vigilant. "But... their old Li Family has tricked me more than once. Maybe they just want to trick me into going back to my hometown and forcing me to take money. I want to go, but I have to let Butler Wang check first to see if she is really dead."
Song Yutang couldn't help laughing, "Okay."
My mother-in-law's awareness is really getting higher and higher.
With this kind of awareness, no one will be able to easily bully their family in the future.
Li Xiulan's hometown is in a mountainous area more than 600 kilometers away from Cloud City.
However, with the development of modern communications and the ability to scatter Butler Wang notes, there was a clear result that night.
According to confirmation from villagers in several villages near Li Family Gully:
Old Madam Li did hang himself last night and was discovered early this morning.
Li Family The mourning hall had been set up and firecrackers were set off at noon. The nearby villagers heard the commotion and spontaneously came to help.
Now I'm doing nothing.
Li Xiulan has seen the video sent by the villagers and confirmed that it is from her natal family.
Looking at the coffin in the center of the hall, she couldn't help but feel sad again, and tears fell from her eyes. "The old lady has been partial all her life and has gained nothing. In the end, she ended up like this because of her partiality. If she had not been so partial and only wanted to cheat me, and had left a little money for medical expenses, she would not have reached this point."
Just as Jiang Dingkun was coming down from upstairs, he paused when he heard these words.
Song Yutang noticed his actions and deliberately raised his voice. "Mom, don't blame yourself. In this life, you will reap the consequences of whatever you sow. She planted the evil karma herself, and now she will suffer the consequences of her own death."
Jiang Guoqiang, who had cooperated countless times, immediately understood what she meant, and nodded to comfort, "Yes, Xiulan, it's not your fault. And after all, your two brothers are biological children. Even if you end up like this because of partiality, you are still an old lady." It was too voluntary. Compared with Old Man Li who killed his three biological children with his own hands, spent money and effort to raise the widow's son, and was finally driven to the pigsty by the widow's son, half of his body was eaten by the pigs, and his ashes were thrown into the latrine, it is already much better."
Jiang Boyan recently had a rare half-day break during the summer vacation, so he happened to be there.
He nodded like a fool. "Dad is right, respect the fate of others and let go of helping others. Respect, but don't bless them. I wish them death."
Song Yutang glanced at him angrily. "What are you talking about? The two uncles are my grandma's biological children after all. The flesh that fell from their bodies was broken bones and tendons. Although she died because of her partiality during her lifetime, she saw her husband and old Li Family after her death. 's ancestors can also straighten their backs. No matter how little your two uncles and your cousins are, why don't they also set up incense and candles in the mourning hall for her, kneel before her soul and wrap her in sackcloth to show her mourning? From now on, every time during the Qingming Festival and the Zhongyuan Festival, she will also have to visit her grave and burn paper. Isn't this a worthy death?"
Jiang Boyan glanced at Jiang Dingkun calmly and laughed mercilessly, "That's true. If this BMW is labeled as Mercedes-Benz, if something goes wrong, send it to Mercedes-Benz for repair. Mercedes-Benz definitely doesn't recognize it. I sent it to BMW for repair, but the mark doesn't match it. In other words, if Mercedes-Benz is scrapped, what does it have to do with me, BMW? Even if I want to take apart the parts and give him repairs, it doesn't match the standard."
Jiang Guoqiang had a headache when he heard it. "What kind of nonsense is this BMW Mercedes-Benz? Children, don't interrupt when adults are talking."
Jiang Boyan pretended to slap himself. "Oh, I forgot, in fact, many car parts are universal. The reason why BMW is unwilling to disassemble the parts for Mercedes-Benz to repair is not because the parts are not suitable. It is because If your Mercedes-Benz is scrapped, what does it have to do with my BMW? I was produced by the BMW manufacturer. Do you really think that the car with your Mercedes-Benz mark is your Mercedes-Benz car?"
Jiang Guoqiang glared at him again. "You learn some bad jokes in school every day, and then you come back and talk nonsense. Don't you just want to talk about Old Man Li? He doesn't even have a grave left, his ashes and feces are buried under the highway, and thousands of cars run over him every day. He is a dead man, so just say less."
Song Yutang shook his head regretfully. "It is said that history can be used as a mirror to know the ups and downs. There are so many lessons in history, why can't we remember them?"
Jiang Boyan quickly raised his hand. "I know, it is said in history books that many dynasties declined like this. I saw a sand sculpture video on the Internet before, which talked about how those prodigal emperors appointed wrong heirs and were beaten by their ancestors underground... Sister-in-law, if you are interested, I will show it to you now..."
