Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng sat awkwardly at the dining table, watching Zheng Juan carefully feed their daughter Feng Yue.
Zhou Rong originally wanted to feed Feng Yue by herself, but unfortunately her daughter didn't want her at all and was not even willing to sit next to her.
Li Suhua wanted her daughter to get close to her granddaughter, so she arranged for Zhou Rong to sit on the other side of Feng Yue. As a result, Feng Yue was afraid of Zhou Rong and leaned against Zheng Juan.
Zhou Rong was very sad, but there was nothing she could do if her daughter disowned her.
Li Suhua saw this and could only sigh: "Oh, you have met Yue Yue too little. It will be fine once you bring Yue Yue back to the capital."
Feng Huacheng lightly kicked Zhou Rong under the table, hoping that she would discuss Feng Yue's custody with Li Suhua.
As a result, Wang Gang looked straight at Feng Huacheng and said, "You kicked me right here."
Feng Huacheng was embarrassed and said quickly: "Sorry, I stretched my legs."
Wang Gang sneered in his heart, but he didn't reveal Feng Huacheng's little thoughts.
The table became quiet again, with only the sound of everyone eating.
Feng Huacheng winked at Zhou Rong, and Zhou Rong finally understood.
"Mom, can you help me take care of Yueyue for a while?" Zhou Rong said directly to Li Suhua without any worries.
Everyone stopped using their chopsticks.
Li Suhua said with some displeasure: "You don't want to take Yueyue back to the capital?"
Zhou Rong explained: "The college entrance examination will resume next year. I want to review for half a year to take the college entrance examination, but I really don't have the energy to take care of Yue Yue."
Wang Gang sneered and said: "You are reviewing again, why can't you take care of your children? According to you, if you get into college, do you still want your mother to help you take care of your children for four years?"
Zhou Rong put down her chopsticks with a snap and glared at Wang Gang: "I asked mom to help, not you, why are you interrupting?"
When Feng Huacheng saw that Zhou Rong was about to argue again, he quickly stopped her.
"Zhou Rong, please speak politely and don't get excited. Aren't we all discussing it?"
Feng Huacheng said to Wang Gang again: "Bingkun, don't blame your sister, she always speaks straightforwardly."
Wang Gang also put down his chopsticks and said to Zhou Rong: "Zhou Rong, you know in your heart that mom is not in good health and can't help you take care of the child. You left Yueyue in Jichun, didn't you just count on me and Zheng Juan?"
Zhou Rong blushed fiercely when Wang Gang told her something important. She didn't know whether it was from shame or anger.
"I'm really in trouble." Zhou Rong suddenly softened her tone and said to Li Suhua, "Mom, it's not easy for Hua Cheng and I to live in the capital. We really can't take Yueyue with us."
Li Suhua's face turned dark and she did not reply to Zhou Rong.
Wang Gang said coldly: "Zhou Rong, don't force mom, don't you just fancy that Zheng Juan has no job and can take care of the elderly and children at home?"
"Zheng Juan really has nothing to do at home and has a lot of time to take care of her mother and children." Zhou Rongtian said shamelessly.
Wang Gang snorted coldly: "You can keep Yueyue here, but it's impossible for Zheng Juan to take care of the elderly and children alone."
"What do you want?" Zhou Rong asked.
Wang Gang said: "The family needs a nanny, should you contribute a share of the money?"
"Pay for it?!" Zhou Rong said in surprise. She had never thought about money.
"Your daughter is in Jichun. She eats and uses my food and will go to school in the future. It will cost money. Shouldn't you pay some money?" Wang Gang said sarcastically:
"Do you want your mother to raise a daughter for you?"
Zhou Rong said anxiously: "I don't mean that."
Feng Huacheng also said: "Whether it's hiring a nanny for mom or paying for Yueyue's child support, we should pay for it."
Zhou Rong thought for a while and said: "Mom is the mother of our three brothers and sisters. If you want to hire a nanny, shouldn't you and your eldest brother also contribute a share?"
"No problem." Wang Gang said immediately: "My eldest brother mentioned this when he came back during the Chinese New Year last year. Our three children will bear the nanny's expenses together, but you can't ask me to bear a share of Yue Yue's child support, right?
?”
Feng Huacheng immediately said: "We should pay alimony, but how much do you think is appropriate?"
Wang Gang glanced at Li Suhua and asked, "Mom, what do you think?"
Li Suhua said: "Your sister and brother-in-law are not happy living in the capital. I should pay for the nanny, and they should pay for Yueyue's support!"
After all, Li Suhua still feels sorry for her daughter.
"Mom, if it hadn't been for her, you wouldn't have had a stroke, and you wouldn't have had to hire a nanny at home. Zhou Rong must contribute a share of the money." Wang Gang said resolutely: "I don't care about the money, I can't swallow this breath."
Seeing that Wang Gang was really angry, Li Suhua couldn't help but feel a headache.
"I know you feel sorry for Mom, but your sister cannot be entirely blamed for Mom's stroke." Li Suhua advised.
"I don't blame her entirely, but doesn't she have any responsibility? If Feng Huacheng hadn't been arrested, how could you have suffered a stroke, and I wouldn't have been able to go to college." Wang Gang stared at Zhou Rong and said:
"I don't have to worry about university matters, but Zhou Rong must fulfill her responsibilities as a child. If she can't take care of her parents, she still has to contribute money. This matter is beyond discussion."
When Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng heard what Wang Gang said, they felt a little guilty in their hearts.
After all, not everyone has the opportunity to go to college.
"It is my duty to support my parents. I will definitely pay for the nanny, don't worry." Zhou Rong promised, patting her chest.
Feng Huacheng frowned. Although he was reluctant, he didn't say anything.
"The nanny's salary is about twenty yuan a month. The three of us will share it equally. You can give me eight yuan a month. If you pay more than you need, you can make up for the difference. Is there any problem?" Wang Gang said.
Zhou Rong nodded and said: "No problem, isn't it just eight yuan? I will send it to you every month from now on."
Wang Gang said again: "Don't worry, there is still Yueyue's child support. She will go to daycare soon. She has to pay a fee every month, about five yuan, plus her usual food expenses, shoes and clothes."
, on average, eight yuan per month, totaling sixteen yuan."
Zhou Rong frowned and said, "Isn't the nursery free?"
Zheng Juan explained: "The nursery in the factory is indeed free, but Bingkun and I don't have jobs. If Yueyue wants to go to the nursery, she has to pay some fees. Five yuan is the public price. You can go and find out."
Zhou Rong and Feng Huacheng looked at each other, feeling a little nervous.
Sixteen yuan a month seems like a small amount, but it is already half a month's salary for Feng Huacheng.
Zhou Rong has to prepare for the college entrance examination and has no job or source of income. The two of them live in the capital and rely entirely on Feng Huacheng's monthly salary of more than thirty.
Zhou Rong also knew that it was unrealistic to hand over half of the money this time. They couldn't just eat porridge and swallow chaff every day in the capital!
"Bingkun, sixteen yuan is too much, can you give it less?" Feng Huacheng begged.
Zhou Rong remained silent.
"Do you think it's more money to support your parents or to raise your children? Which one do you want to reduce?" Wang Gang said sarcastically.
Li Suhua on the side couldn't stand it anymore and said to Wang Gang: "Bingkun, it's hard for your sister and brother-in-law to make a living in the capital. Prices are high. Isn't sixteen yuan a month too much?"
Li Suhua had been favoring Zhou Rong from the beginning. Wang Gang felt a little unhappy and kept suppressing his anger.
"Mom, do you think sixteen yuan is too much? The minimum monthly salary for an ordinary worker is more than twenty dollars.
As a couple, they don't have to take care of the elderly or children. They usually have a lot of time to work. As long as they are not too lazy to work, they can always earn more than fifty yuan a month, right?"
Li Suhua thought the same thing. Feng Huacheng was a college student after all. He was popular in every unit he worked in. His monthly salary could not be lower than that of ordinary workers.
Zhou Rong is a high school student, so finding a job is not a problem. Calculating it this way, the couple's income is indeed not low.
"I have to review, but I can't work!" Zhou Rong said confidently.
"Reviewing can be done in your time after get off work. You can't even think about getting into college when you have problems with your survival?" Wang Gang sneered:
"As a person of your age, if you don't want to work to support yourself, how can you expect your parents to support you and your children? Do you want to live in old age?"
Zhou Rong couldn't hear what Wang Gang said the most, and said angrily: "What about you? You don't have a job, and you don't have to spend your family's money."
Wang Gang replied: "You can ask mom if I have spent a penny from home since I started working."
Zhou Rong looked at Li Suhua, who said: "Not only has your brother never used the family's money, but he has been responsible for all the family's expenses in the past seven years, including my medical treatment."
Now Li Suhua also thinks about the good news of her old age. In the past seven years, her son has taken great care of her. Among the three children, she has given the most and asked for the least in return.
"Rong'er, I think what your brother said makes sense." Li Suhua finally stood on her son's side.
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Mom, you finally said something fair."
Li Suhua blushed a little. When she saw her daughter after seven years of absence, she always thought that she had suffered too much, so she favored her. Now that she thinks about it, it is her younger son who has suffered the most!
Seeing that Li Suhua didn't stand on her side, Zhou Rong suddenly felt betrayed by the whole world.
