Chapter 8 Superfluous Burden

After dinner, Juanzi brought the food back as usual. Because there was such a situation at home, the captain ignored their family.

If you have elderly people at home, you can take them back for food if you are unable to move or are sick, but you can't take too much food.

Yesterday, Dong Shuxue came here, and Song Weiquan didn't go to the cafeteria to have dinner, so he specially brought back the food tonight. Otherwise, the cafeteria would have closed at that time and there was nothing.

In the evening, Li Daya and Song Dashan sat on the kang, one drinking hot water and the other smoking a cigarette pole.

Song Dashan pulled the cigarette pole to the edge of the kang, then knocked it hard, knocking out the cigarette inside.

"Okay, don't suck it so late, you'll knock (cough) all day long." Li Daya looked at her disgustedly, rolled her eyes and turned around to stop looking at him.

Song Dashan didn't say a word, and after knocking on the cigarette pole, he threw it into the kang.

Dong Shuxue looked at her watch. It was just past six o'clock now, and it was less than seven o'clock. But it was already dark outside and everyone was going to sleep again...

She was a little helpless, but she didn't say anything. Anyway, she was getting used to the elderly care life and was not afraid of going to bed early.

"Mom, are you sleeping?" A voice suddenly sounded outside.

Dong Shuxue was about to take off her cotton jacket and go to bed, but put it on again. It’s hard to lie in the quilt and not move, right? It’s rude to look at it.

The third uncle Song Xueming and his wife entered the house. They smiled when they entered the house. They first looked at Dong Shuxue, and then they made a side of the kang.

Juanzi lit the oil lamp quickly. Usually, if outsiders don’t come to the house, they don’t light the lamp. That thing costs electricity and costs money.

"What are you doing if you don't sleep?" Li Daya frowned and looked at them, but she had another attitude towards Song Xue.

"Third brother, don't go to work if you haven't lived these two days." She just missed this youngest son.

There is a saying that goes, the emperor loves his eldest son, and the people love his youngest son.

Li Daya and Song Dashan are such people, especially Song Dashan. Although they don’t show their faces, they just like their younger son.

"I know, I'm not very tired." Song Xueming sat by the kang indifferently. He didn't go because he was tired of working.

Now the three sons have split up on the spot, but the old couple still helps Song Xuemingduo.

Although others didn't say it, they all saw it and kept it in their hearts. They were all thirties and forties, so who cares about parents who cares about?

I have my own grandson, and living my own life is better than anything else. But this idea only exists in the second family, and the eldest brother just can't stand it.

"Come here so late (what do)?" Li Daya glanced at the couple, wondering if she came here to eat? There was no inventory at home.

Song Xueming looked at everyone with a smile, and then said, "Mom, do you think the fourth sister and the others should not leave some money? Our family has no money, so does Xiaoxue have to pay some money?"

"I didn't say I asked her for money. You know, our family is not easy. Look at the smallest people in the family live here. I have to spend more money this year, right? Xiaoxue is here, so there is a little more burden."

His words were completely correct, and Dong Shuxue listened while not finding anything wrong. Indeed, even if he lived in someone else's house, he would have to pay for it without eating or drinking.

What's more, she doesn't have work points here, so what she spends is the work points of Lao Song's family?

Song Xueming's wife Wang Lizhi also said, "Yes, dad, mom, you see, our family is divided, we say that to consider you."

Her words are fine, but you have to ignore her greedy look.

Dong Shuxue also knew that the countryside was like this, and it was not because they planned or did anything, but because they were just poor, so they didn’t feel much.

But want her to take out the money? You can't even think about it, it's impossible.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to, but that the money is limited, and it’s gone after spending it. The factory gave a pension of 100 yuan to the original owner’s father’s accident.

The family deposited 30 yuan, and it cost more than 20 yuan to treat the original owner's mother. In addition, the messy expenses left, one hundred yuan was left.

She asked her neighbors to replace her job and gave her a hundred yuan in benefits, which is also what she deserves.

Although the money is a little less, who would care about her orphans? The factory turned a blind eye. If it doesn't matter, it would probably be fine and there would be no work.

She can't find someone to take over the job, and the factory will take back the job, so she won't lose anything.

What is this two hundred yuan enough? Although it may be a considerable amount of money to take it out now, there will always be a time when the money is spent.

Dong Shuxue is not stingy with money, so she can pay some living expenses. After all, she has no real family affection with these people. Even if she finds a place to rent a house, she has to pay it, right?

"What did you say? I can't afford to ask for my granddaughter's money if I live?" Li Daya was unhappy on the spot.

She used to like her little daughter, and although she didn't listen to her and insisted on following others, what she said was definitely different from what she thought in her heart.

Now that the daughter and son-in-law are gone, the only children are left, and they are lonely and will have to get married in the future. No matter how much they plot against, they cannot plot against their granddaughter.

The third and the other couple did not expect Li Daya to react so much. Song Xueming looked at Old Song and saw him smoking a dry cigarette without saying anything, he knew that he meant the same thing.

"Mom, we didn't say anything else." Song Xueming quickly coaxed Li Daya, so that she couldn't make her angry.

Li Daya was not really angry either, but she was just angry that he was calculating Dong Shuxue so much.

"Okay, I'll tell you clearly. Xiaoxue has how much money she has will be kept for her dowry in the future. Our family has no money and does not have the conditions to buy it for her, but we can't cheat her." Li Daya's attitude was very clear. She could say anything else, but she couldn't ask for money.

Her attitude made the couple's thoughts fail, and even more surprised Dong Shuxue.

However, she could also think that Li Daya's behavior was reasonable. She might not have thought about how much money Dong Shuxue had. It was really impossible to make the others in the village pay attention to that little money.

As for their family, if one person has a bad reputation, it will easily affect the entire family, so Li Daya's consideration is reasonable.

Seeing that they didn't say anything, Old Song said, "You guys hurry up and go back to bed. If you don't go to work tomorrow, go up the mountain to pick up some firewood. Don't expect to always go to our house to get it in winter. So many children are frozen to death?"

The third and the other couple didn't dare to say anything. Although Li Daya was the one who spoke at home, he would just say whatever he said, and he wouldn't speak easily.

The two people who failed to plot were walking on the way home. Their house was not far from here, just a garden.

Say a few words here and you can hear them clearly.
