When Mr. Lu Xun commented on his "Kong Yiji", he once used this sentence: "Poor people will have something to hate, and hateful people will have sad suffering."
This folk saying basically means that those who seem to be pitiful must have made some mistake and blamed themselves in order to put themselves in such a desperate situation.
In a certain street, the weather of the cold winter moon, the old man over eighty years old has a house and a pension, but he and his wife sleep on the street, and the stepson bluntly says: The stepmother is the emperor of the film. What's going on here?
01. Over eighty years old, there is a house with a pension but sleeping on the street
Next to the greenery near the overpass, there are two very conspicuous places, with cool mats on the ground, a quilt on it, and various bottles, waste paper, pots and pans, and so on. It is not difficult to see that this may be the home of a homeless man, but next to this "home" sits two old people.
An old man with gray hair, some back ears, slow response, others ask the old man a question, he can answer it for a long time, this old man is called Cheng Shangyuan, over eighty years old, is a retired employee of a nearby unit, receiving a fixed pension every month.
Another old man with a pestle and a hat on his head, a thin face and a painful expression, was the wife of the old man cheng Shangyuan, her name was Li Xiuliang, 79 years old. Before the reporter could ask the grandmother, the grandmother cried loudly, saying that her son beat her and drove them away from the house, and during the conversation, she handed the reporter a few pages of handwritten appeals.
From this material, it is learned that the elderly Cheng Shangyuan has a retirement salary of 2500 yuan per month, a unit welfare house, and a 38-year-old son named Cheng Qing. The reason why they are sleeping on the streets is that the sons beat their old two, took away their retirement cards, and drove them out of the house, and now they live on the streets, only by picking up garbage and food that the hotel does not want, drinking dirty water from the bathroom, and living a life without clothes and food.
When everyone saw this scene, they felt very uncomfortable in their hearts, what kind of son could be so evil and filial piety, so that the two old people could live such a painful life!
Just when the reporter was angry about the current situation of the old man, the old man Li Xiuliang told a secret, she told the reporter that she and her wife are remarried couples, 30 years ago when she married into the Cheng family, the stepson Cheng Qing was only 2 years old, she raised the stepson with hard work, the stepson not only did not appreciate her, but beat her and drove them out of the house.
At this moment, we understand that cheng qing is Li Xiuliang's stepson, and it is understandable that the stepson is so vicious to his stepmother, but Cheng Qing is the biological son of cheng Shangyuan, so why should he drive his biological father out of the house?
02. Why do neighbors and neighborhood committees support Cheng Qing's approach?
In order to find out the truth, the reporter came to the door of Cheng Shangyuan's house, there was no one living in the house, the door was closed, but the door was not unlocked, but was completely welded by welding. What's going on here?
The words of a neighbor shocked the reporter, who said that the old man's son Cheng Qing was honest and dutiful, and he was very filial and could not beat this stepmother. The old man slept on the street not because Cheng Qing drove them out of the house, but the old man himself could not live in the house, piled up garbage at home, and in desperation, the neighborhood committee welded the old man's door with electric welding. And the neighbors all support Cheng Qing, they are all helping Cheng Qing speak, the reason why they are sleeping on the street is because of Li Xiuliang's own reasons. The neighbor also said that all this was carefully planned by the elderly Li Xiuliang, the purpose was to destroy the father-son relationship between Cheng Shangyuan and Cheng Qing, in order to occupy the house.
Neighbors, you say what I say, who is telling the truth? Did the stepson kick them out, or did the stepmother want to own the property?
In order to find out the truth, the reporter came to the neighborhood committee to understand the truth, and the director of the neighborhood committee said that Cheng Qing was filial and honest, and had come to the community many times for his father's affairs.
The reason why the old man's door was welded was that the old man Li Xiuliang had a room that could not live, the whole room was piled up with all kinds of garbage, there were dead rats, dead snakes and other stenchy things, everyone in the community complained, every year the neighborhood committee had to dispatch 20 trucks and dozens of workers to help the two old people clean up the garbage, the per-time cost was as high as eight or nine thousand.
The old man's son Cheng Qing has no fixed income, nor does he have a house, so married there are two children who are waiting to be fed to take care of, not because they do not want to care for the old father, but many times to dissuade and try, there is really no way, the old father has no heart, only to let the old man fend for himself.
Regarding the pension of the elderly, the director of the neighborhood committee said that the pension of the elderly is in the hands of Li Xiuliang, and the pension of 2500 yuan per month, Li Xiuliang, the elderly, all gave to the son born to his ex-husband, and it is not occupied by Cheng Qing. All the money was given to the son of his wife's ex-husband, and forced to do so, the two elderly people could only rely on picking up garbage to survive and live a hungry and cold old age.
Neighbors and neighborhood committee people all support Cheng Qing, as Cheng Qing's father faced the boss's lies and accusations against his son, why did he remain silent? What's the reason behind this?
03. Son: The stepmother is the emperor of the film
With so many problems in front of us, only face-to-face confrontation can we figure out the truth, so the reporter asked cheng qing, the son of the old man, to deal with this matter.
Cheng Qing appeared with two children as promised, at this time the sky was drizzling, and the old couple had moved their "home" under the overpass. Cheng Shangyuan has not seen his grandson for a long time, as soon as he saw his grandson, he quickly ran up to hug his grandson, and also took out money from his pocket to give his grandson, from this scene, you can see that Cheng Shangyuan's old man loves his grandson.
At the scene, Cheng Qing said that he had never beaten his father and stepmother, and in the face of his son's questioning, the old man Cheng Shangyuan revealed a helpless expression on his face. Finally, under constant questioning, Cheng Shangyuan admitted that his son had never touched himself and his wife, all of which were scribbled by his wife.
The words of the old man Cheng Shangyuan completely angered the old man Li Xiuliang, who said that the stepson beat her for a while, and then said that the daughter-in-law beat her, and the preface did not match the afterword, and also claimed that he had never given the money to the son of the ex-husband, but asked where the money was? Old Man Li Xiuliang's words began to dodge again, and even some gibberish.
In the face of his stepmother's attitude, Cheng Qing may have long been accustomed to it, he was very calm throughout the whole process, at this time Cheng Qing recalled his childhood.
Cheng Qing said that in 1985, his stepmother Li Xiuliang was introduced to marry into the Cheng family, when he had just turned 7 years old, and he thought that the arrival of his stepmother could bring warmth to himself, but what he did not expect was that it brought nightmares. Soon after her stepmother came to the house, she kept picking up all kinds of garbage in the house, never making a meal for herself, when my father went to work, he was full and hungry. Because no one cared, Cheng Qing left home early and went out on his own, and he also committed crimes for this reason, and it was for this reason that his father was very sad. But later after Cheng Qing got married and had children as a father, he began to take on the responsibility of the family and raise two children, but his father was a pain in his heart, he tried to change many times, but his father kept persuading and insisting on being with his stepmother.
Cheng Qing said that her neighbors know what her stepmother has done, and now her words and deeds are like the emperor of the film, with the purpose of making outsiders feel that they are not filial piety.
Cheng Qing did not care about this, he hoped that his parents and stepmother would be separated and take on the responsibility of taking care of their father himself. However, in the face of his son's request, Elder Cheng Shangyuan refused, and no matter how the crowd persuaded, Elder Cheng Shangyuan still chose to refuse. Cheng Qing gave in again, he told his father that if his stepmother no longer piled garbage into the house, he was willing to help his father open the door, and was willing to pay for the decoration of the house so that the two old people could rest assured in the house, but Cheng Shangyuan still refused.
Cheng Shangyuan is very clear in his heart, first, he does not want to be separated from his wife Li Xiuliang, in his opinion and his wife for 30 years, should not abandon his wife in his old age; second, when he goes home to live, his wife will definitely pile up garbage at home, so he chooses to sleep on the street with his wife.
The old father's choice, let Cheng Qing feel helpless, he had to leave with two children, before leaving, Cheng Shangyuan hugged two grandchildren again, it can be seen that he likes two grandchildren, more need for the warmth of the family, but because of this responsibility that can not be abandoned, he chose to protect his wife from beginning to end.
Near noon, Cheng Qing sent his father to buy good meals, which is Cheng Qing's concern for his father, he could not let go of this elderly old father, before leaving, he also entrusted the neighborhood committee to help take care of the old father.
Rainy and rainy, under the overpass, Cheng Shangyuan brought a bucket of cold water to his wife Li Xiuliang, helped Li Xiuliang wash his face and rubbed his back, and watched the clear water become turbid. Old Man Cheng Shang made the bed with the clothes he had picked up, and the two of them covered the quilt they had picked up and slept in the long night.
This is the story of two old people sleeping on the street, may the two old people let go of their attachments and enjoy their old age in peace.
Write at the end:
For his wife, Cheng Shangyuan is a qualified husband, he assumes the responsibility of her husband, never abandons him from beginning to end, and protects his wife regardless of right or wrong. But Cheng Shangyuan for his son Cheng Qing, he is not a qualified father, did not give him a warm home when Cheng Qing was young, in front of right and wrong, regardless of right and wrong tolerance, creating today's results.
No matter how much you love someone, you can't tolerate it without distinction between right and wrong, and more tolerance will become connivance, so that people who could have enjoyed the joy of the world around their knees have become people who sleep on the street.
Perhaps this is "the poor man must have something to hate, and the hateful man must have a miserable suffering." I hope that the elderly will distinguish between right and wrong as soon as possible and enjoy their old age in peace.
Finally, I would like to ask you, is there such a stubborn old man around you?
