Life is more than just living

The arrival of siblings Chen Zhihua and Chen Zhigang made Chen Xu feel uncomfortable. It seems that when demolition is linked to money, everyone wants to get a piece of the pie.

Grandma looked at the two children she had raised with caution, and asked uneasily: "What are you doing here?" Chen Zhihua said, "Mom, you also know that now we and Xiaoyu are crowded together, and the five of us live in which one?" The small house is too crowded. It’s just the right time to demolish it, so I should be a part of it!” Grandma sighed and said, “There are four adults in your family of five, and they are all strong laborers with hands and feet. What are you doing? Do you have to fight with me, a lonely old woman? I heard people say that this house cannot be exchanged for a bigger house. Besides, you have been married for 30 years, so don’t worry about these things at home."

But Chen Zhihua said to himself: "When the time comes, Wang Yu and his father and I will come and live with you. You are so old and you need someone by your side. By then, you will be no better off than you are now!" Before Chen Xu could wait, When talking to grandma, Chen Zhigang spoke next to him, "Sister, I don't like hearing what you say. The old man has been gone for so many years, and I haven't seen you take the old lady to your place to honor him for two days. Now when we talk about demolition Well, you are being filial. Who do you think is a fool?" Chen Zhihua retorted angrily, "That's better than you! I still come back to visit you from time to time. You act like you don't have this person. What face do you have? Say this?"

Chen Xu saw the two siblings biting each other. She was impatient but not surprised. She had long been used to the shameless faces of these two siblings. She took a few deep breaths, and then said: "Okay, you two, stop arguing. Just tell me what the purpose of coming back is, and don't talk about useless things."

Chen Zhihua said concisely this time: "Anyway, this house was left by my parents, and I also have a share." Chen Zhigang said from the side: "The water thrown out by the married daughter. How many years have you been married? More than 30 years!" Why do you want to come back to fight for something? Do you want to lose face?" Chen Zhihua simply yelled, "The most shameless person is you. You don't care about the old ones, and you don't care about the young ones. Aren't you quite proud of eating soft food outside with such an old woman? Why do you still worry about this little shabby house?" Chen Zhigang said shamelessly: "Don't worry about the size, it is the property of our old Chen family. With my son here, you don't have to worry about it." The loud quarrel attracted the neighbors. Everyone came to watch the fun.

No one stopped the fight, and the onlookers were afraid that the world would not be in chaos. Grandma sighed repeatedly, and she sat there sadly without saying a word. Chen Xu was very upset when he heard that. Seeing that the onlookers were even more upset, he said: "Everyone, please stop standing around and go back!" Then everyone reluctantly dispersed slowly.

Chen Xu said to the three people: "Since we have different opinions, let's resolve it through legal channels!" Several people were surprised. No one wanted to file a lawsuit. Chen Xu said expressionlessly: "Since everyone feels that they deserve a share, then let's follow the law! I don't have much legal knowledge. You two have the right to inherit part of grandpa's share, but the share Not much. After so many years, you have not fulfilled your obligation to support grandma. As for the legal verdict, I don’t know yet. Are you going to sue in court or go to a notary to settle the estate?” Chen Zhigang and Chen Zhihua were both silent for a moment.

Chen Xu added: "I don't know what the financial situation of you two is, but it should be better than grandma's situation! Grandma only has a few hundred yuan a month, so there is no doubt that she needs a place to stay. . You have never considered what will happen to grandma. I think the best way is to solve it through legal channels to avoid future troubles." At this moment, the gossipy grandma Liu walked in again in the name of visiting. After listening to what a few people said, Grandma Liu suddenly said to Chen Zhigang: "Dagang, I'm not talking about you. You are doing so well outside now, are you still short of these two dollars? Although your mother didn't give birth to you, But he raised you, right? I watched you grow up. How old were you when your mother came? Besides, after your divorce, you two didn’t care about the children. No matter how you say it, your mother also took care of them for ten years. It’s been years. You haven’t given me a penny. Is it easy for your mother? She’s so old and has to pick things up in smelly garbage pits every day. Now we only have such a house, how dare you come to share it? I’m so old I just love to be fair, and I really can’t stand it.” At this moment, Grandma Liu’s image became much taller in Chen Xu’s mind.

Chen Zhigang felt a little ashamed after being told that. Chen Zhihua, as if he had found a confidant, said to Grandma Liu: "Aunt Liu, you know that I often come back to see my mother. I have not ignored my mother these years."

At this time, Chen Zhigang suddenly said, "Actually, I didn't come back this time to ask for a house. After all, I also have a share in this house. I came back just to see how to make reasonable arrangements. Mom, how about this? See if it works: I don’t want the money from the house, nor the house. But you have to write Chen Xu’s name on the demolition agreement and give the house to Chen Xu. I won’t want it in the future. Anyway, I haven’t taken care of the children these years, so I’ll give you some compensation. !”
