Chapter 259 Want both and want
Her life is almost over, and she thinks of all the big and small things in her life every day. The more she thinks about it, the more she feels that she is too biased.
In order for the Shen family to have someone who can make a name for themselves, everything was given to the eldest son. However, Shen Dali was honest and got nothing, and he was the one who suffered the most in the family.
But it was this son who kept giving her money to sustain her life, while the eldest son was still asking her for more.
As soon as Lin Ting finished speaking, Shen Jizu became anxious, but he couldn't let a few people say that he was unfilial.
"Isn't it a matter of priorities? Mom's illness has been seen by a doctor before. As long as she continues to take the medicine, she will get better.
"Why waste money if you know the outcome is like that? You might as well use it to buy another dose of medicine."
Lin Ting sneered: "Why did Grandma Qingzhou's body become like this? Isn't it because you fed her poison?
Isn't it right for you to not treat her properly and let the doctor take a closer look at her body?"
Lin Ting doesn't deal with Shen Jizu, but that doesn't mean she doesn't hate Shen Jizu. What she can't stand the most is Shen Jizu's hypocritical look.
"Lin Ting, what do you mean? Don't you want to support my mother?"
Shen Jizu was speechless and had no choice but to bite back.
This made Lin Ting laugh: "What a joke! You said it too, that's your mother, not mine."
Unable to convince Lin Ting, Shen Jizu pointed at Shen Dali again.
"Shen Dali, this is your good daughter-in-law. How dare she speak to her elders like that? Is this the daughter-in-law you raised?"
Yang Xiuxiu stood in front of Shen Jizu and slapped his hand away.
"You don't need to say anything about my daughter-in-law. She is free to do whatever she wants and say whatever she wants."
Shen Jizu was very angry, but not only could he not beat Lin Ting, he couldn't even convince Lin Ting, and even Yang Xiuxiu dared to go against him.
The whole room started to quarrel. Seeing this, Xu pulled Shen Jizu's sleeve.
"Husband, let's talk about business."
Shen Jizu then realized that he had been led astray. Today they mainly discussed who would take care of Shen's mother.
"After today, your two families will take turns taking care of Mom. It's settled. I'm the eldest brother, so you all have to listen to me."
Not to mention Yang Xiuxiu, even Liu Shiying disagreed with this.
"Brother, this cannot be generalized. If you want us to take care of our aunt, then you have to make it clear how long it will take. How many months will each of us take care of her?
Also, originally you were supposed to follow your aunt when the family split up, but now you're just throwing in the towel with just one sentence. That doesn't make sense."
"That's right, we won't say anything about taking care of my mother-in-law, but we have to tell you how long we'll be taking care of her so we have a clear idea in our hearts."
Yang Xiuxiu felt very uncomfortable. When Shen's mother was in good health, all she thought about was Shen Jizu. Now she was sick and all the money was taken away by Shen Jizu. Now she asked them to take care of her. She felt very uncomfortable, even though she could support her.
Shen Jizu was so annoyed. He was fed up with all this nagging.
"Brother Shen Zhu, Shen Dali, are you two dead? Mother can support all of us by herself, so can't we support her by herself?"
Shen Zhuxiong and Shen Dali looked at each other. It was not that they did not want to raise the child, but they just wanted Shen Jizu to tell them how long they would take care of the child.
"Brother, you asked us to help take care of her, so let's put it this way, it takes ten months for my sister-in-law to be pregnant.
When the baby is born, you need to stay in confinement for a month. The baby is still young, so you have to wait for a few more months.
That's more than a year. Since you're going to have my third brother and I take care of her for more than a year, I'll farm her two acres this year. I'll take care of her personally, and my third brother will be responsible for her medical treatment, clothes, and so on."
Shen Zhuxiong thought that it would be a good idea to leave Shen's mother at the old Shen's house, and he and Liu Shiying would take care of her eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, while Shen Dali would pay the money.
Moreover, Shen Dali owns a farm and doesn't look down on Shen's mother's two acres of land, but his brother Shen Zu needs those two acres of land to grow peppers.
"No, Brother Shen, why didn't I realize you were so scheming before? Mother agreed to live with me, and her two acres of land are mine.
I've only asked you to take care of me for a while, and you're already negotiating terms. How can you be so heartless?"
Shen Jizu wants it all. He doesn't want to care about Shen's mother, but he also wants Shen's mother's land.
"If you want to talk about conscience, you feed poison to your own mother. This conscience is good because it is inherited."
Lin Ting's words were full of wisdom. She not only said this to Shen Jizu, but also to Shen's mother. The old lady had empty eyes, and she must have seen through Shen Jizu's true face.
They say you can’t tell whether a person is good or bad until he or she reaches a desperate situation. Now I understand everything I should understand.
"Lin Ting, you..."
Lin Ting folded her arms across her chest. It would be easy to solve the problem of Shen's mother, but she just couldn't stand Shen Jizu.
"Stop the you-and-me talk. I think what Second Uncle said is very good. Whoever takes care of it will get to farm the land. As for us, we have no interest in those two acres of scattered land."
Lin Ting is so wise. Now that she has said this, Brother Shen Zhu has more confidence to speak.
"Brother, if you don't agree with the farm, we won't let Mom starve to death, but the responsibility of taking care of her is on you. If you pursue a career in politics, it won't be pleasant for others to talk about you."
Shen Jizu is about to have a son. His reputation is already bad. If he is also known to be unfilial, the court will not want someone like him even if he can write brilliant articles.
For the sake of his career and his son, Shen Jizu reluctantly agreed.
Tears flowed from Shen's mother's hollow eyes. Lin Ting didn't tolerate her and walked straight up to her and said.
"You see, it was your eldest son who didn't want you. If you were in good health, you might be able to take care of your eldest daughter-in-law during her confinement in the future.
But look at you now, you've been poisoned like this, you've become a burden, no longer of any use, so of course you're despised."
Lin Ting wanted to hurt her right in the heart. Compared with the harm she had caused to Lin Ting and the others, this was nothing.
"Also, do you have any objections to giving your land to Second Uncle's family to cultivate? If you do, nod your head. If not, shake your head."
Mother Shen shook her head. She knew who took good care of her. Every time she urinated on the bed, Mrs. Xu knew about it but didn't change it for her.
He also cursed her, saying that her room was so smelly and that Liu Shiying had to come to change it every now and then, otherwise she didn't know what the situation would be like.
Seeing Shen's mother shaking her head, Shen Zuxiong and Liu Shiying also smiled. As long as they could cultivate the two acres of land and take care of Shen's mother, they had no complaints.
Lin Ting took Shen's mother's pulse as promised, and her eyes moved.
This pulse condition indicates that her lung function is beginning to fail. In addition, Shen's mother is old and cannot be saved. She can only live for about eight or nine months at most.
