Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

The funeral of the deaf old lady was very grand, and the street office didn't say anything. They were very happy to have someone hold a funeral for a five-guarantee household. Zhao Shanhe did as he said and sent the old lady on her last journey.

Zhao Shanhe felt that the deaf old lady had lived a fairly good life. She was childless and was not sent to a nursing home. Instead, she was supported by the government as a five-guarantee household.

Yi Zhonghai's wife served him wholeheartedly. In the early days, his eldest grandson Sha Zhu provided him with delicious food and drink every now and then. Lou Xiao'e also often brought some cakes. When he died, someone held a funeral for him. He was much happier than most people who had both sons and daughters, and happier than many rural elderly people in later generations.

Three days after the old lady's funeral, Yi Zhonghai went to the Jia family with the purpose of dissolving the grandfather-grandson relationship as mentioned above.

In recent years, Bang Geng has become more and more outrageous as he grows older. Stealing and cheating are commonplace, and fighting is also normal.

In recent years, Yi Zhonghai has found that Bang Geng does not have many major problems, just petty thefts. After all, every child has had the experience of stealing things when they were young, so he just turned a blind eye.

However, with Yi Zhonghai's indulgence and the Jia family's doting, and the improvement of living conditions, Banggeng is even more outrageous than in the drama. In the drama, he also steals things to get food. In that era, hunger was common. When you are hungry, you want to eat, but what can you do if you can't get food? You can only steal. Banggen steals things and still takes care of his two younger sisters.

Due to Zhao Shanhe's time travel, a butterfly effect occurred. The living conditions of Banggeng's family improved. Yi Zhonghai gave him twenty yuan a month, and he often sent some noodles and vegetables. Banggeng also often ate at Yi Zhonghai's house, and Yi Zhonghai's wife was also happy to cook for this good grandson.

So Banggeng had no shortage of food and drink, and he made a lot of bad friends outside. Then he was short of money. What should he do? He started stealing money. At first, when the aunt found out, she didn't say anything. She thought that the child was grown up and needed pocket money, so she put some money in for Banggeng to take.

Everyone knows the consequences of indulging children. Later, more and more money was lost. Yi Zhonghai found the Jia family. The Jia family had a good attitude and admitted their mistakes, but they were stubborn and would not change. No matter where the money was put, it would be lost. Yi Zhonghai felt that he had made a mistake all these years and had raised an ungrateful person.

Yi Zhonghai thought about calling the police, but when he thought about how he would have no one to take care of him in his old age, his heart softened. He also thought that the money would still be useful after he passed away. However, the amount was getting bigger and bigger, and Yi Zhonghai couldn't bear it anymore. He wasn't dead yet, so how would he live without the money?

Later, he discussed it with the old lady, who told him to make a decisive decision and abandon Bang Geng as the old man and find another one, which led to the conversation between Zhao Shanhe and her.

In fact, the old lady and Yi Zhonghai wanted Zhao Shanhe to take care of them in their old age. Looking at how Zhao Shanhe treated Aunt Chen over the years and the dowry he gave to Daya, they knew that Zhao Shanhe was a man who valued friendship and loyalty.

Logically speaking, the mother and daughters had little to do with the Zhao family after Zhao Jin's death. Who would keep three mouths to feed for nothing? But Zhao Shanhe did just that. Not only did he not let the three daughters starve, he also sent them to school and gave them dowries of three turns and one ring. Who wouldn't give a thumbs up when seeing this?

Therefore, Zhao Shanhe was the first candidate for the elderly support they planned. They knew that Zhao Shanhe's family had a lot of salary and was not short of money. If it didn't work out, they would plan another one. If it worked out, wouldn't it be even better? As expected, Zhao Shanhe refused.

The second candidate is Sha Zhu, whom the deaf old lady has always favored. Although they have not been in contact for many years, He Daqing has also returned, but the He family has a fatal flaw: they lack houses. With two more children, the children are growing older and there are only so many houses left.

In fact, it would be no problem to make a few partitions in the main house where Sha Zhu lives, but who would complain about having too many houses? Although Ma Dongmei agreed, she also put forward a condition, that is, the deaf old lady's house should be given to them now instead of Yi Zhonghai. Yi Zhonghai would definitely not agree. What if he doesn't use the house for his old age after getting it?

Finally, the deaf old lady, Yi Zhonghai, and Sha Zhu's family reached a tripartite agreement that the deaf old lady's house would belong to Yi Zhonghai after her death, but the right to use it would belong to Sha Zhu. If the deaf old lady did not provide Yi Zhonghai with retirement care, Yi Zhonghai would have the right to take back the house. After Yi Zhonghai died, all of his property would belong to Sha Zhu, so a new retirement agreement was born.

Zhao Shanhe couldn't understand why the property of an old lady without children, who was a five-guarantee household, was considered private. The country had supported her for so long, so even if the property was gone, it should belong to the state.

Today, Yi Zhonghai went to the Jia family with the purpose of terminating the agreement and asking the Jia family to pay compensation. If they did not pay, he would report to the police. He was extremely disappointed with Bang Geng.

"What, Old Yi, I let my son Bang Geng recognize you as my grandfather because I saw that you liked him. I didn't expect that just because I spent some of your money, you would disown him and even send him to prison. How could you be so cruel?" When Jia Zhang heard what Yi Zhonghai explained, she jumped up.

"Sister-in-law, I've made it very clear. I don't want the twenty dollars every month for all these years. I took the initiative to ask for it, so you have to do it according to the agreement. What I want is the money that Banggeng has stolen in the past few years, a total of five hundred yuan. And after we agree to the agreement, Banggeng must move out of the cabin immediately."

"Uncle, please, Banggeng is a good boy, he will change, can you please give him another chance?" Qin Huairu pleaded.

"Forget it. A dog will always eat shit. This is the nth time you've said this. Has he changed? Either do as I say today, or report to the police. Not only will you have to pay back the money, but your Banggeng will also go to jail. You better think it through."

Qin Huairu said with tears in her eyes, "Uncle, you know that I am the only one in our family who earns a salary. My mother-in-law is old and needs to take medicine. The children are still young. Can you just pity us orphans and widows?"

"Humph, Qin Huairu, other people don't know your family's situation, but I don't know your family's situation either. Do you want me to explain it to you one by one? You'd better give me the money, otherwise it will be bad for Banggeng to go to jail.

If you two widows hadn't been able to live so peacefully these years without my support, you'd better hurry up and not step down. Think about how you're going to live in the future."

"Old Yi, are you so ruthless?" Jia Zhang said

"Hmph, you guys should think about it with your conscience. Over the years, from Lao Jia to Jia Dongxu and then Bang Geng, I have been kind to you, right? But what about that ungrateful little bastard of yours? He eats and drinks my food, and even steals my money every now and then. Who is so ruthless?

If I really did something ruthless, the people chatting with you now would be the police, Banggeng would definitely be in jail, and I would send your sister-in-law back to the countryside. I didn't even take the money I gave you over the years, but only the money that Banggeng stole. Do you still think I did something ruthless?"

"If you cancel the agreement, who will support you in your old age? Otherwise, I will let Bang Geng kowtow to you and admit his fault, and then write another agreement to promise not to steal money. What do you think?"

"You don't need to worry about my retirement. I turned a blind eye to all the benefits you've gained from my retirement over the years. Do you still treat me like a fool?"
