Reborn as an 80s-aged woman, her unfilial son begs for forgiveness on his knees.

Li Wenhai spent two days taking care of Li Jianguo in the hospital, and he was on the verge of a breakdown.

He never imagined that his father, who always stood tall and spoke with a strong voice in his memory, would one day lie weakly in a hospital bed, needing help even to turn over.

He Caifeng explained the situation to Li Wenjun, who then delayed for a whole day before finally arriving at the hospital.

Li Jianguo has woken up, but he is not in good spirits. The doctor said he needs to be observed in the hospital for a few more days.

Having gotten older, this illness has left me feeling quite drained.

Li Wenhai stood by his father's bedside, looking at his father's gaunt face, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart.

"Second brother, Dad doesn't have much savings. I even paid for the hospital fees myself."

The doctor said that Dad will need to rest well after being discharged from the hospital and will not be able to go back to work for the time being.

We'll probably need to prepare more funds for nutritional supplements and subsequent medication.

As Li Wenhai spoke, he took out a medical bill and a payment slip from his pocket and placed them in front of Li Wenjun, his tone tinged with fatigue: "Take a look at these first, so you have a general idea."

"You're a son too, so we brothers have to face Dad's illness together."

The third child is still a minor, so we can't count on him.

Li Wenjun took the receipt, his gaze lingered on the string of numbers for a moment, his brows furrowed slightly, but he did not immediately respond.

He was silent for a moment, then folded the receipt and put it back on the table. His voice was a little muffled: "Brother, I'm not exactly well off either."

I have to give my mom twenty yuan every month, and sometimes I have to go out for drinks and meals with my colleagues, so I really don't have any money left.

He was telling the truth.

He only earns about forty yuan a month, and his mother extorted twenty of it from him. He still has to eat, and sometimes he even has to help Pan Wenfang out of poverty. How could he possibly have any money left?

Dad, really, why did you have to get sick when you were perfectly healthy?

This adds unnecessary burden to them.

Upon hearing this, Li Wenhai's anger flared up, but looking at his father who had just fallen asleep on the hospital bed, he swallowed back the words he was about to say.

He lowered his voice, but his tone was undeniably cold and hard: "Third brother, you have a guilty conscience."

This is our own father, not someone else.

Also, Dad had five children, not just me.

Dad is in the hospital now. Medical expenses, nutrition expenses, and follow-up care—all of these cost money.

I understand you're short on money, but this isn't something I can handle alone.

Although both my sister-in-law and I work, we have children to raise, and our expenses are considerable.

Even if you can't afford much, you should still show your appreciation. Even if it's just ten or eight yuan a month, it's a token of your goodwill.

Dad raised us all these years, we can't let him down at this time.

Li Wenhai dared not tell Li Wenjun that his father had taken expired pills that Li Wenjun had brought him to the hospital.

If Li Wenjun knew the reason behind it, he would probably be even less willing to pay the money.

"Brother, I understand what you're saying. But I really can't come up with that much. My monthly salary isn't even enough for my own expenses."

Li Wenjun still didn't want to pay.

Li Wenhai took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to beat up Li Wenjun.

"If you don't want to pay, then you can take a few days off to take care of Dad, so that your sister-in-law and I can have some time to recover."

Your sister-in-law has already taken several days off from work. If she takes any more, her workplace might not be so friendly.

"Brother, you are the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, it is your duty to take care of Dad."

Besides, my workplace is a large state-owned factory with strict leave policies. If I take leave, not only will my salary be severely deducted, but I also won't be able to explain it to my superiors.

Besides, I'm a grown man, how would I know how to serve others? My sister-in-law is very attentive; she'll definitely take better care of me than I do.

He Caifeng was furious when she heard that.

"Li Wenjun, you are still your father's own son. He raised you, so you should fulfill your filial duty."

What do you mean by "the eldest son and his wife should be taken care of"? That's heartless!

"Your dad didn't raise me!"

Want her to take care of this old geezer? No way!

Li Wenjun, embarrassed by He Caifeng's sharp retort, retorted, "Sister-in-law, what are you saying? I never said I wouldn't care about Dad."

Once you've entered my home, you should assume your due responsibilities.

"Learn from my mom. She's so filial to her grandma. She takes her everywhere she goes, making sure she eats well and dresses well. That's how a daughter-in-law should be."

He Caifeng sneered and retorted sharply, "Your mother is your mother, and I am me."

"Your mom is so good, why did she divorce your dad?"

"You..." Li

Wenjun was so taken aback by this remark that his face turned bright red, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

The fact that his mother and father divorced was a thorn in his side. Whenever anyone brought it up, he felt utterly humiliated and ashamed.

"What do you mean, 'you'? Did I say something wrong?"

He Caifeng stood with her hands on her hips, refusing to back down once she was in the right.

"If your mother were really as filial as you say, she wouldn't just watch your father lying here and not care about him."

They've lived together for decades, so even if they're divorced, shouldn't they at least come and visit?

She, on the other hand, is nowhere to be seen.

Is this kind of woman considered good?

She was already being very polite by not saying that Zhang Wenying was shameful.

Li Wenjun's face turned pale and then red after being bombarded with a barrage of criticism from He Caifeng. His lips trembled, and it took him a long time to finally manage to squeeze out a sentence: "Sister-in-law, how can you talk like that?"

In this family, you have the lowest salary and the least deduction for taking leave, so it's only right that you take care of Dad.

Besides, you've been married into the Li family for so many years, and Dad has treated you well. You can't just watch him lie in the hospital unattended, can you?

He Caifeng glared at her: "So what if my salary is low? Does that mean I should work more because my salary is low? That's a really funny thing to say."

Your dad has always been most biased towards you. He even slapped your mom because of your promiscuous ex-girlfriend.

"If it weren't for your ex-boyfriend who had an abortion, would Dad and Mom have gotten divorced?"

Li Wenjun was struck on a sore spot by He Caifeng's words, and he froze on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning.

"He Caifeng, you shrew, what nonsense are you spouting!"

Li Wenjun slammed his hand on the cabinet next to the hospital bed, causing the water in the glass to spill out.

"Try saying that again!"

He Caifeng was not to be outdone. She took a step closer and spoke louder than him: "Did I say something wrong? Your ex-girlfriend caused chaos in the family back then. Dad even beat Mom because of her. Who in the neighborhood doesn't know that?"

And now you're playing the dutiful son and grandson.

"If you're so capable, then come and serve your father. Don't drag me into this!"

The two started arguing in the hospital room.

Li Wenjun was so angry at He Caifeng's retort that he trembled all over. He pointed at her nose and cursed, "You, you are simply unreasonable!"

Our family spent money to marry you into the family so that you could serve your in-laws.

Dad isn't feeling well right now, so this is your duty!
