The Age of Rebirth: The Cannon Fodder Elder Sister Brings a Sister to Counterattack

"Bell, bell, bell..."

Li Aihua picked up the phone and couldn't help sighing when he heard the voice from the opposite side. After the person on the other side finished speaking, she said, "Dad, it's because Mom doesn't want to go back, so it's useless for you to look for me!"

Li's mother retired in September last year. After completing the formalities, she packed her bags and went to the district to take care of Li Aihua's two children. When she arrived in the district, Aunt Fat also went home.

Originally, Fat Auntie had been working until the end of last year, but Li Aihua told her that she was not at ease if the two children she found halfway would not get used to it, so she begged her to help take care of her for another nine months. The fat aunt went home and discussed with her husband, and with her husband's consent, she followed Li Aihua to the district.

Once Mother Li came, Li Aihua felt much more relaxed. Fat aunt can only help with washing and cooking to take care of the two children. Apart from these, Li's mother also teaches the two children to read and write, and also corrects some bad habits of the two children. The only bad thing is that Li's mother's food is not as good as Aunt Fat's, but just bear with it.

As the saying goes, one family is happy and the other is sad. Li's mother and niece are happy every day, but Li's second aunt is very irritable. When Grandma Li arrived in the provincial capital, she was fine at first, but over time she was picky about Second Aunt Li, and she was also very strict with the nanny.

The nannies only work for money, so if one job doesn’t work, they go to another one. The nannies can’t take it anymore and quit within two days.

Second Aunt Li originally thought that the two elders were used to life in Yongning County, so they went back if they were not used to staying in the provincial capital. The facts are indeed true. The two elders wanted to go back after staying for more than a month, but Li's father did not dare to pick him up until his mother returned to Yongning County. He was often too busy to go home, and no one took care of him when he came back.

From September to before the Chinese New Year, your second uncle's family changed more than ten nannies in five months, which made Second Aunt Li almost collapse. Fortunately, the two elders had to go back to Yongning County for the New Year. They said that if Father Li didn't come to pick them up, they would go back by themselves, so they went back.

Aunt Li thought that after the two elders went back, they would be relieved. But I don't want to say that during the Chinese New Year, Li's mother said that the two elders were taken care of by her in the past few years, and now it is the turn of Li Yuan and his wife, and the requirements are not high, only three years. When Li Aihua's youngest daughter goes to primary school, the two families will come in rotation, one family for half a year.

Both are sons, and Mother Li's request is not too much. But Grandpa Li and Grandma Li didn't want to live with Second Aunt Li again, and Father Li also wanted them to stay in Yongning County to spend their old age peacefully, so they didn't agree.

It's just that no one expected that Mother Li's attitude was very firm this time, and it was useless to say that they disagreed. Anyway, she had to take care of her two granddaughters for the past three years.

Mother Li was upset. They are all daughters-in-law, and the second daughter-in-law will come back every year and holiday, and then they will always be praised by the two elders. And I have worked so hard to take care of them for many years, it's fine if I don't have good words, but I still tell outsiders that she is not filial. Since I like the second daughter-in-law so much, then live well with the second daughter-in-law.

Li's father has been doing ideological work with Li's mother, but unfortunately it is useless. After the Lantern Festival, Li's mother went to the district with her luggage and continued to take care of her granddaughter. On the third day after she left, Grandma Li caught a cold, and Father Li had no choice but to take three days off to take care of her. Three days later, he was tired and sick.

When Li's mother heard that he fell ill, she thought it was a trick, and asked an acquaintance to make sure she was really sick before she came back. I took care of him for a week, and returned to the district when he recovered.

Father Li couldn't convince Mother Li, so he hoped that Li Aihua could persuade Mother Li. But with Tian Shao's words in front, Li Aihua never persuaded Li's mother, only said to respect her decision. There is no other way, Father Li can only ask for help from his two sons, but the two brothers and you know the cause and effect and feel that the two families should take turns to take care of their grandparents.

Li Aiguo also specially called Li's mother, telling her to persevere and not compromise. Grandma Li made things difficult for Mother Li back then, and he saw all of this. In the past, when I was young and didn't understand, I just felt uncomfortable and didn't say anything, but now I'm older and feel that my mother is too wronged.

The two sons did not support him, and Li's father could only grind Li Aihua.

Father Li said helplessly: "Aihua, your grandparents loved you so much before, but now they are old and need someone to take care of them, so you can help me persuade your mother to come back."

I have never bothered about family affairs before, but this past half a year has made him and her feel haggard.

Li Aihua said helplessly: "Dad, I also persuaded, but Mom was so chilled by grandma that she didn't want to go back. Dad, I can't drive Mom back, can I?"

Father Li was really devastated, so he said casually: "Then you drive her back?"

Li Aihua got angry and said: "Dad, how can you say such a thing? I want to drive my mother out, should I be a human again? Well, I still have work to do here, so I won't tell you .”

Grandpa is okay, but grandma is not in good health after fifty years old. In the past 20 years, the child has been hospitalized no less than ten times, each time her mother took care of them, and not only that, she often went to the hospital to get them medicine and tried every means to increase nutrition for them.

Grandpa and grandma are a little confused when they are old, and they can only bear with the harsh words, but the second aunt actually agrees with grandma that her mother didn't take good care of people, so she can't bear it.

After hanging up the phone, Li Aihua was too restless to work. After thinking about it, she went to say hello to the section chief and left work early. Instead of going back, he went to the post office to call Tian Shao.

Tian Shao was surprised to answer her call. It's working hours now, so calling her at this time must be something important: "Sister Aihua, what's wrong?"

Li Aihua sighed and said: "It's not about my grandparents. My dad actually said that I should drive my mother out in order to let my mother go back."

The onlookers knew, Tian Shao said: "Your father can't hold on anymore. But now is the critical time, you must not compromise, or all previous efforts will be wasted."

This is actually a tug-of-war. If Mother Li persists, the two families will take turns taking care of her. If Mother Li compromises, then it will be her business from now on.

Li Aihua said: "Actually, I also feel very uncomfortable. My grandparents really don't like living in the provincial capital, and my second aunt just talked nicely, and didn't really take good care of them."

"Your mother took good care of them, but what happened?"

Li Aihua smiled wryly: "My grandma said that I was cruel, and that I have been hurting me for so many years."

Tian Shao was silent, and said: "They can say this, it shows that they don't think they are wrong at all. In this case, you have to support your mother even more, otherwise it will be easy to have problems with your heart and body. I want your mother to be well, Just support her."

This is actually a question of trade-offs. If you think grandma is more important, you can persuade your mother; if you think mother is more important, don't interfere.

Li Aihua hummed and said: "I definitely support my mother, but seeing them like this makes me feel uncomfortable."

There is no other way for Tian Shao, she thought for a while and said: "If you really can't bear to ask your brother and Aiguo for help, let them come forward and tell your father."

In today's society, the son's words carry more weight. As long as the two brothers stand firmly by Li's mother, Li's father will only compromise. After all, he can't really stand against his wife and children.
