A leisurely life that begins with the possession of a game character

"I see. When I came here just now, I saw that your place was under construction. I have some funds to donate here. Is it okay?" Ni Yuqing asked again.

Zhang Lan quickly waved her hand and said, "No, no, I don't accept donations here. If you want to show your love, you can do some charity work yourself."

Seeing Zhang Lan's firm refusal, Ni Yuqing said with a little embarrassment: "I'm sorry, when I came here I just wanted to know about your treatment plan, so I thought..."

"Everyone's condition is different, and the treatment methods are also different." Zhang Lan explained casually.

Ni Yuqing was already exhausted, so Zhang Lan asked her to go back and rest. Li Shumiao came in a commercial vehicle, so he could rest in the car.

After Li Shumiao sent Ni Yuqing to the car, he turned and walked towards the yard.

Zhang Lan, who was standing at the door, asked in surprise: "Aren't you going with anyone?"

Li Shumiao shook his head: "My brother will come to pick me up later, and I will go home to see my parents."

"That's what I should do." Zhang Lan nodded.

Li Shumiao sighed: "Just show your kindness. You can't let people gossip about you all day long."

Zhang Lan will not comment on this. It is not easy for outsiders to say anything about things like parents' partiality and filial piety. Unless it is too much and people really can't stand it.

In the past, when Li Shumiao and Zhang Lan talked about their parents, they always felt that their parents were unfair to them and favored their younger brother. However, after experiencing a lot in recent years, they found that it was true that their parents were biased, but it was not to be said that they were unfair to them.

When you think about many things from the perspective of the person involved, you will find that some choices are not completely unreasonable.

The reason why Li Shumiao could have such emotion is that no matter what her parents said back then, she was determined to get married without a wedding. Her parents did not provide her with any help, but they did not hold her back either.

Later, Li Shumiao's parents asked her to help her younger brother. After Li Shumiao refused, her parents did not force her to do anything.

The main point is, I have asked for your help, and if you are willing to help, that's great. If you don't want to help, then I won't help you.

Compared with the chaos in Li Shumiao's cousin Li Zheng's family some time ago, Li Shumiao felt that his parents were relatively reasonable.

Li Shumiao and her cousin Li Zheng both work in the south. Li Zheng's conditions are better and he has quite a few connections where he works after many years. So after Li Shumiao got in touch with her cousin, she would often visit him.

Li Shumiao's cousin Li Zheng is the youngest of three brothers. His wife is the second oldest of three siblings, one brother and one sister.

The fathers on both sides had passed away several years ago. Li Zheng and his wife had a child. Among the two siblings, Li Zheng and his wife were relatively better off, so naturally the old man stayed with Li Zheng.

The two elderly people had different personalities and habits, so they had to live separately, each with a house. Li Zheng's mother-in-law believed that her daughter should take care of her when she grows up, because her son was busy with work and had no time to take care of her.

Li Zheng's mother believed that raising a son to support her in her old age would end up supporting her mother-in-law. Thus, the fuse of the quarrel was secretly planted.

When Li Zheng and his wife got married, his father-in-law and mother-in-law were reluctant to come because the journey was too far. When the child was born, Li Zheng's parents went back home after taking care of him because they were not feeling well. That was the most difficult time for Li Zheng and his wife. His wife closed her business and stayed at home to take care of the child. During that time, Li Zheng and his wife gritted their teeth and persevered.

Li Zheng's parents-in-law are from Qilu, and they particularly emphasize tradition. They clearly distinguish between sons, daughters, and sons-in-law. Even when Li Zheng's father-in-law was about to go to the ICU, he was unwilling to listen to the arrangements of his two sons-in-law and insisted on waiting for his son to come and listen to his son's arrangements.

But the sons were too busy with work and could not come, so the sons-in-law took care of the matter. Finally, the person died, and when the sons-in-law came, they urged them to take the person home quickly, cremate and bury the person, and then went back to work.

It took less than three days, and they were very calm. Maybe as civil servants, they had already been familiar with the procedures for handling funeral affairs. Li Zheng's mother-in-law was even more powerful. She lived in Li Zheng's house. Li Zheng's wife received a document for payment on delivery, but the family refused to accept it, even though Li Zheng's wife called and begged repeatedly.

Even when the property management came to collect a few dozen dollars for water, it was Li Zheng's wife who took the time to go back and pay for it. It wasn't about the amount of money, but the status of her daughter and son in her heart.

Li Zheng's mother was always angry about Li Zheng's adoption of his mother-in-law, so she wanted to show her mother's status and right to speak everywhere. Li Zheng had no choice but to spend money to settle the matter. Spending money was a small matter, as long as everyone was happy.

After the children finished their classes on Saturday, Li Zheng and his wife immediately rushed to his mother-in-law's house to have a happy meal together, and then quickly rushed to the next class. This was considered spending the weekend with his mother-in-law, a 20-kilometer trip each way.

Like Saturday, Sunday was the same as Saturday. He had to go to his mother's house and spend a happy weekend with the old lady. Even though Li Zheng's children and wife kept looking at the watch and winking at him, he still had to say a word of concern to her.

At the same time, Li Zheng also had some thoughts in his mind. Why didn't you tell me on Saturday? What's the point of coming here and having nothing to do on the weekend? I don't want to leave even if you want to leave.

The old people are all very lonely. Even though they have card-playing friends and singing clubs, Li Zheng and his wife start talking as soon as they enter the door. They even shout out a few words of advice through the window when Li Zheng's car is about to leave the community.

Sometimes the old ladies have mood swings regardless of time and place, and Li Zheng and his wife can handle it. Before going to bed, the old ladies dream about their feelings and can't sleep. They call to complain and cry. If they continue crying, something serious will happen. Li Zheng and his wife quickly coax the children to sleep. Then they quietly leave the children behind, rush to the old lady's house, coax her to sleep, and then rush back to their own home in the middle of the night.

The road home in the middle of the night was empty, as if they were the only two people in the world. Neither Li Zheng nor his wife wanted to talk, for fear of breaking this rare tranquility.

Holidays are the easiest time to trigger a cold war in Li Zheng's family. How to celebrate is really a problem. Going out for a trip has to be done secretly. If you bring someone with you or not, or if you bring both, something bad will happen.

Among the six children of the two mothers, Li Zheng's conditions and urban environment were relatively better. Therefore, everyone felt more at ease leaving the old ladies with Li Zheng.

Li Zheng's two brothers live far away from home, not in the same city. The eldest is a civil servant, he can't even afford to eat, he can't even take care of his own family, let alone his mother. But the eldest has a habit of calling his mother every day to chat no matter how busy he is, and his children also call her every day and every weekend, which is still acceptable.

But the second son of Li Zheng's family is a businessman and is always busy. Even when he makes a lot of money, his mind is full of business matters. Li Zheng told him to set an alarm on his mobile phone and call the old lady at the appointed time, even if it takes only time to go to the toilet. But the second son still forgot.
