Rest In Peace - 3rd Uncle
i still remember when i'm young, among my (many) uncles.. only my 3rd uncle came & visit us always.
he's the closest to my dad.. probably my dad is the youngest, & they're quite close when they're young, buddy time...
when he's with us, he told my mum :
you're very good, can prepare lunch easily in such a short period. my wife start preparing lunch since early morning, till 1-2pm, still no lunch.
he always came alone during his visit.
or when 'qing-ming', he'll visit my dad and pray for their parents together..
a simple quiet man, working as a cobbler (shoemaker) for his life and too shy till can't get a girlfriend.
his current wife (3rd aunt) is via match-making by friends & have a child, same age as me.. or probably 1 year older than me.
he's already into his 70's and still working for a living, not able to retire
he's a smoker and with liver cancer, he admitted to the government hospital
my parents does visit them regularly
my mum told me :
that woman got money, why put yr 3rd uncle in a government hospital?
govn hospital, u need to take queue.. queue till when?
if she dun have money, she can afford to buy a house?
(they rent a house for years)
buy house (with her son) and don't even let your 3rd uncle know about it, but then.. after bought, complain the house too far away, transportation not convenient.. serve them right.
so sell it away.. & look for another one.
something very wrong with their relationship?
my dad in HK/Macau when my 3rd uncle pass away
so my mum take over and go over to help, with other relatives as well
to their surprise..
human being can be sooooo cold blooded
my 3rd aunt keep pestering them for money, to pay for the funeral, etc... the collection of 'bai-gin' already have RM6k++
when they pass about RM1.2k++ to my 3rd aunt, she refuse to take
she told them, the funeral cost about RM3k++ and can you all come out with that figure?
they try to fork out as much.. to help, giving face to my 3rd uncle
my mum only have around RM500 & minus transportation (about RM50), she give everything to her.. and yet, my 3rd aunt still haunting them for more money.
when the funeral is over, she block them from leaving & demand them to settle the funeral cost if possible.. my mum & other relative really piss-off with her
if not for 3rd uncle...
normally after the death ritual (Chinese ancestor praying), we'll bring back the tablet & put in our house.. but my 3rd aunt just burnt it immediately over there
all my 3rd uncle belonging also throw away
my dad so sad when he hear upon this
if my 3rd uncle knew about it, will he rest-in-peace?
even you have tons of money.. if you don't use it.. u're only a caretaker of those money
u born with nothing, u'll go with nothing too...
yr husband, no one force you to choose
since u already accept.. then stick to the r/s & work for better life
only know how to complain is useless
before you complain, ask yrself : what have you contribute to the family?
if u complain he earn too little compare to others.. then ask yrself : how much you earn, and how much can you contribute?
haiz... life is not sucks
life sucks because you bring upon to it yourself.. no one own you a living
life can be so cold & bloodless, wtf...
