When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1084 Shengnan 16
Jiang's mother felt sorry for her son: "Could... the old man go to a nursing home, and I stay at home..."
"And then give you your share of the medical expenses? So you can subsidize Jiang Shengli?" Tan You finished the sentence for her. Jiang's mother shrank back. She could think that way, but how could the other party say it so directly?
Jiang Shengli stood straighter than anyone else: "No, no need, I don't need Mom's financial support."
Tan You chuckled: "She can't make it even if she wants to. I'll just say one thing: go if you want, or get out. I can put you in a sanatorium, but don't try to make any money out of it."
"What makes you think my attitude will soften now? And what makes you think I'll subsidize Jiang Shengli like Jiang Shengnan did?"
Jiang's mother was like a chicken with its neck being choked. She was always the most likely to take advantage of others, and now that Tan You wanted to send them to a sanatorium, she immediately went too far.
"Think it over and tell me your answer. If you don't hear from me by tomorrow night, just pretend I was never here."
Tan You got up to leave, but Jiang's father suddenly said, "Shengli's mother and I are going to the sanatorium. You said we don't need to pay for it."
He now understands that raising children doesn't guarantee a comfortable old age. Instead of scheming against his daughter-in-law over 4000 yuan, he thinks it's better for them to go to a nursing home. They're getting old and should have their own money.
Moreover, he realized that since Tan You had sent them to a nursing home, Tan You would be responsible for most of their future medical expenses, and he and his wife could save up their retirement savings.
Since I no longer live at home, I see my son and daughter-in-law less often, so there are fewer conflicts.
Tan You stopped in her tracks and looked at Jiang's father seriously for the first time. After a long while, she smiled and said, "A smart choice. I will send you to the sanatorium tomorrow."
"Furthermore, your wife takes a thousand yuan from your mother every month, all under the guise of buying things for your son. Did your son even come to be born to your parents? If you gave birth to him, you should raise him yourself. How could you be so stingy with the money for your sick and frail parents' medicine?"
"If I find out again that your wife is asking your mother for money, I'll break her bones!"
Wang Sumei immediately tensed up. She was afraid—afraid that Tan You would treat her the same way she treated Jiang Shengli. Didn't she dislike the old couple? Why was she actually siding with them this time?
As soon as Tan You left, Jiang's mother became anxious. She chased after Jiang's father back to the room: "Why did you agree to that? Why are we going to the sanatorium?"
Looking at the night outside the window, Jiang's father said, "If we don't go out, we won't have a decent life at home. As soon as my monthly pension arrives, Sumei brings Tongtong back, wanting to buy exercise books, clothes, or shoes. By the end of the month, we're broke."
"At least I can have meat with every meal at the sanatorium, instead of eating boiled vegetables at home."
Jiang's mother's eyes darted around: "Tongtong... Tongtong is our grandson, it's only right to spend some money on him."
“But I don’t want to live like this,” Jiang’s father said, leaning against the headboard. “They want to send me to a sanatorium, why shouldn’t I go? They’ll take care of all my food, clothing, and accommodation, I won’t have to worry about anything.”
“I can still keep my pension. Think about when we were broke before, did Shengli and Sumei ever come back? They wouldn’t have cared about us.”
Jiang's mother fell silent. She valued her son, but ultimately listened to her husband the most.
"Are you...really going to a sanatorium?"
Jiang's father closed his eyes: "If you don't want to go, I'll go myself, saving her money." Jiang's mother wanted to save Tan You money? She immediately nodded: "Then I'll go too!"
Jiang Shengli and his wife were also whispering in the kitchen. Wang Sumei angrily threw down the spatula: "Everything changed as soon as she came back. Tongtong won't have grandparents to buy her things anymore, and your salary is only so much..."
Jiang Shengli: "After Tongtong goes back to school after the New Year, you should also find a job. You said yourself that my salary is not high, and the family can't rely on me alone."
Wang Sumei stared in disbelief: "I...I don't have much of an education..."
"Then do a job that doesn't require a degree, like a supermarket cashier, a stock clerk, or if all else fails, deliver packages," Jiang Shengli said impatiently. His son wasn't just his; why should he be the only one to raise him?
Wang Sumei felt as if she had been struck by lightning. So, not only could she no longer control the elderly couple's money, but she also had to go out and earn money herself? She couldn't live like this anymore!
Sara had never been to a nursing home before, so when Tan You came to take the Jiang family's elderly couple there the next day, Sara came along in the car. Jiang Shengli and his family of three naturally came too; they needed to familiarize themselves with the place. Did they think they wouldn't visit them after they entered the nursing home?
In front of outsiders, the Jiang family members were quite good at putting on an act, remaining quiet and reserved throughout the journey.
Upon arriving at the sanatorium, Tan You paid a year's worth of fees without batting an eye: "If you want to withdraw this money for your eldest son, I'll kill him right now!"
After putting the receipt into her bag, Tan You put her hands on Jiang Ma's shoulders and met her gaze, but there was no smile in her eyes, only a stern warning: "You can try if you don't believe me. I guarantee I can make him disappear without a trace."
Looking into Tan You's gloomy eyes, Jiang's mother trembled like a leaf: "I dare not, I dare not, I will definitely stay here quietly, I will not go anywhere."
"I won't dare to give them money anymore."
“You’d better be,” Tan You chuckled, releasing Jiang Ma, “The matter has been taken care of. A caregiver will be on your side. From now on, you’ll come through here for all your doctor’s appointments and medications, but…”
The moment she uttered the "but," everyone tensed up: "If I find out you're subsidizing Jiang Shengli, I'll never care about you again. I won't concern myself with your lives, whether you're old, sick, or dead."
Jiang's parents shook their heads repeatedly; how could they dare? Jiang Shengli and Wang Sumei were also speechless, feeling their faces burning with embarrassment.
Sara looked at the timid Jiang Ma and frowned her sharp eyebrows: "I think Auntie, she gives off a strange feeling."
Tan You: "She has a servile nature to her core; all she knows is to grovel before men. The key is that she's willing to kneel; you can't expect others to kneel too. It's useless to treat someone like her well, no matter how good you are to her. I'm too lazy to waste my time arguing with her."
"If you talk to her too much, you'll easily get brainwashed by her, which is especially scary."
Sara nodded: "That's right. Now that you've finished your business, can we go out and have some fun?"
"Let's go!" Tan You was in a good mood. Others might think she was being taken advantage of. Why should she spend money on Jiang's parents? Even if it was for their support, it should be split equally with Jiang Shengli.
But Jiang Shengli can't support his family; he still needs his elderly parents to help him out. If they continue to live with Jiang Shengli, they won't live much longer either.
Besides, she's not the original owner of this body, so she should at least let these two old people live until the original owner returns, right? As for how the original owner treats her biological parents after she returns, Tan You won't interfere.
