He doesn't ask for much, just a harmonious family.

Mr. Luo glared at her angrily.

This idiot is only controlled by her because the fifth child is too honest; any other child in the family would have thrown a huge tantrum.

They're all my children, I don't expect them to be completely equal, but they shouldn't be too different from each other.

Mr. Luo glared coldly at Sun Xiulian.

You have to protect your own wife. No matter what she does wrong, she is still his wife and the mother of his children.

"Which child doesn't do chores? These are nothing."

A single sentence from Luo's father ignited Luo Yu's fury.

Luo Yu suddenly stood up from the chair, knocking it over and making a loud "bang" as it hit the ground. This startled Luo's mother and Luo Li, who looked at Luo Yu in horror.

This fifth son is different.

Luo Yu lowered her head and looked at her father, who was still sitting upright in the chair, and sneered: "Of course you don't care who does the housework, and how unfair my mother is to me. You are the beneficiaries and have no right to talk like this."

The right thing to do is to keep quiet after you've gained an advantage; acting innocent after gaining an advantage is just annoying.

Mr. Luo was so angry that his temper flared up. Just as he was about to retort, he saw his fifth son looking at him with a gaze as cold as ice in the dead of winter, chilling him to the bone.

The anger that had just risen instantly subsided, and Mr. Luo said cautiously, "You can't just not help the family at all, can you? You can work on your own, but you still have to bring money home every month, right?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Li screamed, "Dad, how could you do this? Didn't we agree that I would go to work?"

Unable to argue with Luo Yu, Luo's father couldn't handle Luo Li either, and his temper flared up again. "Shut up! The job belongs to the fifth child. She can give it up if she wants, or she can choose not to."

Hearing the anger in Luo's father's words, Luo Li dared not say anything more. She glared at Luo Yu resentfully, the hatred in her eyes almost tangible.

Luo Yu didn't care about Luo Li's gaze at all; a little Karami wasn't even worth her attention.

"So, secondly, I will give you retirement money when you retire, which is also pocket money, but I will only give you one-seventh of this money."

I have filial piety, but only one-seventh of it.

Mr. and Mrs. Luo were taken aback.

How come I still have one-seventh of my retirement savings?

Luo Yu raised her head, her expression indifferent, her eyes filled with mockery.

"Who told you to have so many children? How can I be the only one paying for your retirement? If I don't let my other siblings pay for your retirement, wouldn't that be the same as making them unfilial? I can't do that. We all have to take care of you together."

Therefore, the seven siblings divided it equally.

"Your pensions will be enough for you to live on after you retire. The average monthly living expense for each person is about five yuan, so for the two of you together it's ten yuan. We seven siblings will split it equally. I'll give you one yuan and fifty cents each month, which I'll bring to you at the end of the month when I get my salary. You won't be shortchanged."

"Furthermore, the prerequisite for receiving retirement money is that you keep your job until retirement. If you give your job to someone else in the middle, then the money will be canceled, and whoever gave the job to will be responsible for your retirement."

"We can't let others benefit while she suffers the consequences."

Luo Yu looked at Luo Li meaningfully.

Luo Li immediately understood; this was meant for her.

My initial desire to have Luo's mother give me the job vanished instantly.

It's not that she didn't try, it's just that trying was useless. Her father is selfish. If Luo Yu hadn't reminded her, there would still be a chance for her to get a job. Now that Luo Yu has made things clear, her father will never let her mother give her a job.

Her mother didn't earn much, but she still made 37.5 yuan a month. If she gave up her job, not only would she lose that money, but she would also lose her retirement savings.

If Luo Yu doesn't pay, the other siblings certainly won't either after they find out the reason.

They grew up together, and she knew their personalities all too well. They were just like their father, a whole family of selfish bastards.

After listening, Luo's father seemed to be deep in thought.

Luo Li was right. To be honest, he hadn't thought that much about it before, but after Luo Yu reminded him, he really started to calculate the gains and losses.

First, the wife lost more than 30 yuan a month by giving up her job, and the fourth son's salary was naturally not as high when he took over the job. Moreover, the fourth son is selfish, so he certainly wouldn't give all of the money to the family. Even if he did hand it over, it wouldn't be all of it, so he lost a lot of money in the process.

Secondly, Luo Li will get married sooner or later, and what will she do about her job then? Her in-laws won't let her keep her job at home.

If her job goes with her when she gets married, the family income will decrease. What will happen to the family then? His salary is not enough to support the whole family.

Another thing is retirement money. If one person doesn't pay, no one else will either. Ten yuan a month, how much can you do with that!

Mr. Luo was quick-witted and immediately calculated the gains and losses.

When Luo Li saw her father's expression, she knew that there was no chance of her taking over her mother's job.

Mr. Luo narrowed his eyes and looked at Luo Yu.

They'll give him money, but only after he retires. He's only 46 this year, and retirement is four years away. Who knows what might happen in four years? (Coal mine workers are a special type of worker; they can retire five years early after nine years of service. The retirement age for male workers was 55 at the time, but it was later changed to 60.)

The family is in financial difficulty right now, and there are many places where money is needed. How can we manage without Luo Yu's salary?

"No, the family needs money now, you have to give it to us now."

Luo Yu sneered, "Is the family's financial difficulty my fault? Isn't it because you had too many children without restraint?"

When Luo Yu revealed the truth, both Luo's parents blushed.

But that wasn't all. Luo Yu continued sharply, "It's because you had too many children and spoiled your other brothers and sisters that the family is in such a difficult situation. It's not my fault, so why should I have to buy... and bear the burden?"

My eldest brother and sister-in-law didn't contribute a single penny after they got married. They ate and drank at home, and even their clothes were bought by Mom. My second brother and sister-in-law did the same after they got married; the whole family ate and drank at home and didn't contribute a single penny. Why should I have to pay for things here? This is discrimination; I can report you."

When Luo's father heard that he was going to report him again, he was so angry that his face turned pale.

But what the fifth brother said wasn't wrong either. The eldest and second eldest brothers' weddings were all paid for by the family, and they also ate and lived at home. In fact, they didn't give the family a single penny.

Thinking of this, Luo's father's anger surged again, and he also felt sorry for all the money he had earned over the years.

If he didn't earn so much, it wouldn't even be enough for his family to live on. What wealthy family could afford to spend like that?

Seeing that none of the three spoke, Luo Yu continued to attack.

"A whole family of lazybones, they rely on me, their sister-in-law, to serve them all day long, but they don't spend any money. Instead, they expect me, their sister-in-law, to pay for their nephew's upbringing. Where's their shame?"

If you can't afford to raise them, don't have children. You can't just enjoy yourself and let others bear the consequences. What do I have to do with them?

And the sixth and seventh siblings, if you can't afford to raise them, you can give them away. Don't expect me, their older sister, to support them.
