Chapter 318 Filial Piety Outsourcing (End)
The original owner’s grandfather, Xu Changming, had six children. The original owner’s father, Xu Yonghai, was his fifth child. He had four older brothers and a younger sister, and they all had their own families.
But when Xu Changming fell ill, the other children ignored him, thinking that Xu Changming loved Xu Yonghai the most, so they asked him to take care of him.
Xu Yonghai pushed it to the daughter of the original owner, saying, "You just graduated from college, so you are not in a hurry to find a job."
The original owner disagreed, so Xu Yonghai said, "Have you forgotten that your grandfather loved you the most when you were a child? He let you ride on his shoulders and bought you food."
Four uncles and an aunt also advised the original owner.
After persuasion from all parties, the original owner agreed, on the condition that she would be given a monthly salary, living expenses, and grandfather's medical expenses. In the end, Xu Yonghai agreed to the two people, but the first one disagreed.
Instead, he said to the original owner: "That's your grandfather, and you still want money. You really have no conscience."
Finally, after discussion, everyone gave 300 yuan, but gradually, some stopped giving, and some gave 100, 50...
When the original owner asked, Xu Yonghai and his friends played the victim, saying that they were short of money recently and would make up for it when they were not short of money anymore.
But no.
The original owner wanted to give up, but Xu Changming suffered from Alzheimer's disease and only recognized the original owner.
The original owner was soft-hearted, so he kept delaying the process for fifteen years until Xu Changming passed away.
At this time, the original owner was already 37 years old, unmarried and childless, and did not have a formal job.
Several uncles, aunts, uncles, cousins, and father Xu Yonghai all looked down on the original owner, thinking that no one wanted her. When relatives asked about her, they spoke with disdain.
Xu Yonghai kicked the original owner out of the house because he had no place to live, saying, "You should support yourself now that you are old enough."
The original owner was indignant, "If you hadn't stopped taking care of Grandpa and let me take care of him, I wouldn't be in this situation today."
Xu Yonghai refused to admit it: "You are incompetent, and you have so many excuses. Go away and don't go home for the New Year."
The original owner looked at his father's indifferent expression and felt that his life was particularly meaningless.
At night, he hanged himself at the door of Xu Yonghai's house.

As soon as Xu Jinhuan arrived, she smelled the scent of disinfectant. She frowned, picked up the bag on the chair, turned around and left.
A voice came from behind, "Huanhuan, Grandpa is hungry, go outside and buy him something to eat."
Xu Jinhuan said "hmm" without turning her head, and then never went back. She had so many sons and daughters, so it was not her turn as a granddaughter to take care of anyone.
Xu Changming waited for two hours, and seeing that Xu Jinhuan had not returned, he called her, but the call didn't go through, so he called his son Xu Yonghai.
Xu Yonghai frowned after hearing this: "This girl is really ignorant. I will call her now and ask her to go back."
Xu Changming snorted, "Don't you want to take care of an old man like me? Run away."
"Impossible." Xu Yonghai said firmly.
He knew his daughter well. She was very kind-hearted and would not leave the old man alone in the hospital.
"Maybe something happened!" Xu Yonghai guessed.
Xu Changming said angrily: "It's better this way."
"Don't worry about that for now. Order me some takeout. Make it light. Then have the delivery man deliver it to my ward."
"I'm almost starving to death!"
"understood."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Yonghai ordered the cheapest takeaway for the old man and asked the delivery man to throw away the order.
Then he called Xu Jinhuan and started asking, "Where have you been? Don't you know your grandfather is waiting for you to bring him food in the hospital? How can you be so unfilial? Do you want to starve him to death?"
"Whoever has a father should take care of him. Anyway, I won't do that." Xu Jinhuan said, "If you don't take care of him, I will go to your hospital and put up banners to put you on the news, so that everyone will know that you are an unfilial son."
Without waiting for Xu Yonghai to say anything, Xu Jinhuan hung up the phone and started queuing up to get on the bus.
She came to the city where Xu Yonghai worked, found two aunties, and went to Xu Yonghai's workplace with a banner. She carried a speaker and a microphone and scolded Xu Yonghai for being an unfilial son who ignored his biological father who was seriously ill in bed and was unkind to his daughter. He had no living expenses or tuition fees, and yet he asked his daughter for money...
The two aunts also agreed wholeheartedly.
Everyone loves to watch the fun, so nonsense gathered a lot of people and started talking.
Xu Yonghai in the crowd had a dark face.
He never dreamed that Xu Jinhuan would do such a thing.
"Dad, I didn't wrong you, did I?" Xu Jinhuan walked up to Xu Yonghai with the microphone.
Everyone looked at Xu Yonghai at the same time with contempt in their eyes.
Xu Yonghai clenched his fists.
I wish I didn't have this daughter.
He stammered, "I'm not ignoring it. I was just planning to ask for leave to go back."
Xu Jinhuan asked: "When?"
Xu Yonghai took a deep breath, "Tomorrow!"
Xu Jinhuan nodded: "I hope you will keep your promise, otherwise I will come to you again tomorrow."
Xu Yonghai even wanted to kill someone.
He returned to the company in a rage.
Before he had time to ask for leave, his boss gave him leave and said, "As a child, you still have to be filial. If it's not enough, call me."
Xu Yonghai nodded with a red face.
When he returned to the office, he heard his colleagues whispering to him.
"cough!"
Xu Yonghai coughed twice deliberately.
After work.
Xu Yonghai called Xu Jinhuan with a gloomy face.
damn it!
He actually embarrassed his father in public.
but,
The call never got through.
Xu Yonghai became even angrier.
Li Hui was shocked to see him like this, and asked with concern: "What happened? Did the company lay you off?"
Xu Yonghai said: "My unfilial daughter used a loud speaker today to accuse me of being unfilial in front of the company. Now my colleagues are laughing at me."
"Ah! Didn't you say that your daughter is very obedient?" Li Hui was very surprised.
She divorced last year and came to Shenzhen to work hard, where she met Xu Yonghai. After working together for a while, Xu Yonghai pursued her.
She didn't agree at first, and she wanted to be a stepmother, but Xu Yonghai said that his daughter was very sensible and would graduate from college soon, so he didn't need to take care of her and she would not live with them in the future.
She agreed!
But based on what Xu Jinhuan did today, can this be called being sensible?
If one day she fails to do her job as a stepmother, she will use a loud speaker to shout that she is abusive and a vicious stepmother.
When she thought of this, she said to Xu Yonghai: "Since you want to go back to take care of your uncle, let's break up!"
It is hard to find a three-legged frog in the world, but three-legged men are everywhere.
Xu Yonghai was anxious: "Why are we breaking up? It's not like I won't come back."
He was playing the victim because he wanted her to go home and take care of his old father, not to break up with him.
Li Hui got up, started packing her luggage, and left overnight.
Xu Yonghai couldn't stop it.
He kicked the door in frustration, "Women are just selfish."
the next day.
Xu Yonghai boarded the train home with a gloomy face.
Xu Jinhuan also flew to the places where several of his uncles worked and did the same thing.
Several uncles lost face, were labeled as unfilial sons, and had to go home to take care of their old father.
I even wanted to kill Xu Jinhuan.
The eldest brother Xu Yongshan asked: "Did your father ask you to do this?"
Xu Jinhuan nodded.
Xu Yongshan said sinisterly: "You are really great!"
He had no doubt that Xu Jinhuan was lying. After all, it was unthinkable for a daughter to put the blame on her own father.
I just think that this younger brother is too pretentious. He is usually affectionate and generous, but in fact he has all kinds of small calculations in his mind, and he will use all kinds of tricks when it comes to his own interests.
When they got home and saw Xu Yonghai coming towards them, Xu Yongshan and his companions snorted in their hearts, thinking how shameless he was and still pretending.
"Brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, and little sister, why are you all back? Dad, I'm the only one who can take care of him. I'll go back to work when he's almost well." Xu Yonghai said with a smile.
Xu Yongshan said sarcastically, "Didn't you ask your daughter to stand in front of our company with a loud speaker and accuse us of being unfilial?"
Xu Yonghai: !!!
"I didn't. Why would I do such a thing? That damn girl must have acted on her own initiative. That damn girl also went to the door of my unit and shouted."
He said with an anxious look in his eyes.
"What your daughter did is equivalent to what you did."
Xu Yongshan glanced at Xu Yonghai with disdain, "It's fine if you're not good at work, but how come you can't even take care of your own daughter?"
Xu Yonghai looked ashamed.
He is useless in this family.
"Okay, big brother, stop talking. Fifth brother didn't mean it." Sixth sister Xu Yongjuan came out to ease the atmosphere.
Xu Yongshan snorted coldly, looked at his brothers, and said, "Let's discuss how to take care of Dad."
No one said anything.
Finally, Xu Yonghai said, "Let me take care of it!"
He smiled bitterly: "The salary is low anyway."
Xu Yongjuan was silent for a while, then said, "I can give you 300 yuan a month."
If she works hard but doesn't pay, people will accuse her of being unfilial.
Xu Yongshan: "Then I'll pay 400."
He looked at the second brother and the others: "You guys should also pay 300 like the sixth brother! The total is 1,600, which is enough for living expenses. As for medical expenses, they will also be shared according to this ratio."
Xu Yongjuan disagreed: "I didn't get any house or anything at home, and I don't want to pay for the medical expenses."
My family has always favored boys over girls since I was young, so why should it be fair and just that it is my turn to pay?
She is not convinced.
"If you want Xu Jinhuan to hold a loud speaker and accuse you of being unfilial, then you won't come out." Xu Yongshan snorted coldly.
"you,"
Xu Yongjuan was so angry that she trembled and glared at Xu Yonghai fiercely, "Keep your daughter under control. If she does this again next time, don't blame me for scolding you."
Xu Yonghai was embarrassed.
Xu Changming was quite happy. No matter how well his granddaughter took care of him, he felt empty inside when his son was not around.
Now his son is with him all day long. He is happy, with a smile on his face, and looks much kinder.
But Xu Yonghai is tired!
He didn't expect taking care of someone to be so tiring.
I have to take care of his eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, wipe his body, keep an eye on the IV bottle and chat with him.
At night I have to sleep on a small recliner and can't even turn over.
After a few days, Xu Yonghai couldn't stand it anymore. He went for a walk after breakfast in the morning and returned home every two or three hours.
Xu Changming was so angry that he called his other sons to complain.
But he didn't answer it. He was so angry that he was shaking and cursing him as an unfilial son.
It’s not that Xu Yongshan and the others don’t want to take the job, but they are now facing social death.
Xu Jinhuan handed out flyers at the door of their company, on which was written in huge letters that they only gave 300 yuan a month to their sick and hospitalized old father.
