Suddenly received billions from neighbor who passed away

Tu Hue Minh (currently 68 years old) was born and raised in a small village in Ho Chi Minh City. Ningbo (Zhejiang, China).

Next to his house was an old woman named To My Van.

Mrs. To and her husband had no children, so after her husband’s death, Ms. To lived alone. Mr. Tu is a kind person, seeing that his elderly neighbors live alone, he often comes to help.

In 1990, Tu Hue Minh’s family built a new house. At that time, Mrs. To’s house was dilapidated. The walls of the house appear cracks, there are signs of collapse, if you continue to live, it will be very dangerous. Ms. To is 66 years old, her family’s economy is difficult, so she cannot afford to remodel her house.

Mr. Tu discussed with his family, built an extra room in his new house, and invited Mrs. To to come live with him. Although he is not related by blood to Mrs. To, the whole family of Mr. Tu considers her as a relative. Take care of her every inch, from clothes, food, shelter and transportation.

This makes Mrs. To, who has been lonely for many years, feel the warmth of her family.

In 2008, Mr. Tu’s house was subject to demolition. It also means that his family has to move elsewhere.

Mr. Tu’s family wanted to take Mrs. To along. But she refused. She said she was used to life in the countryside and did not want to get used to the new environment.

Seeing that Mrs. To did not want to leave, Mr. Tu did not dare to force her. Instead, he rented her a house in the village for 300 yuan a month.

At the new house, every time he thought about the elderly To live alone, Mr. Tu felt uneasy. When he has free time, he visits Mrs. To again and talks to her to ease her boredom. On New Year’s Day holidays, his whole family came together to visit her, making preparations for her just like her biological mother.

In 2012, Ms. To was 88 years old and her health was very weak. She walked unsteadily, unable to take care of herself. She needs someone on duty 24 hours a day. However, Mr. Tu still has to work, so he cannot be with her constantly.

After many days of thinking, he went to the village committee and presented Mrs. To’s situation and his difficulties. Finally, with the help of the village committee, Ms. To was admitted to a nearby nursing home.

The problem again is the money to pay for the nursing home. In the first year, Ms. To had to pay 1,700 yuan per month, in the second year, this number increased to 2,000 yuan per month.

Although Ms. To is entitled to a monthly rural insurance and old-age pension, the total amount is less than 1,000 yuan. Mr. Tu’s family is not well off, he is just an ordinary worker, but because of his pity for Ms. To’s situation, he decided to help her pay this amount.

After Mrs. To was admitted to the nursing home, Mr. Tu still regularly visited, brought her fruit and food.

Those in the room were always jealous of Mrs. To, praising her for having a filial son. Every time she hears that, the old woman laughs and explains that this is not her son, but the neighbour.

On June 21, 2017, 93-year-old To was hospitalized due to abnormal kidney function.

Mr. Tu and his family took turns taking care of her in the hospital, keeping watch for 8 days and 8 nights. None of the nurses at the hospital knew that they were just the old lady’s neighbors.

On June 29, 2017, Mrs. To took her last breath. Tu Hue Minh again shouldered the responsibility of taking care of the funeral for the old woman, because in his heart, he had long considered Mrs. To as his relative.

Surprise money

Everything related to Ms. To thought was over. Unexpectedly, 3 years later, Mr. Tu received a phone call from the village secretary.

The man told Mr. Tu that Ms. To’s house had been demolished, and that Ms. To received millions of yuan (billions of VND -nv) from the demolition money. However, because Ms. To has no heir, the village leader believes that it should belong to Mr. Tu.

“We all felt we should give this money to Mr. Tu, after all, he had 30 years of taking care of Ms. To,” the village secretary told PV in an interview.

Mr. Tu was very surprised by this. He said that taking care of Ms. To completely comes from love for the lonely elderly. He never thought about her fortune.

However, later, the Ningbo court still decided to hand over 50% of Ms. Su’s money to Mr. Tu. The rest of the money was donated to a cousin of Mrs. To and the poor and lonely people of the village.

In 2020, Mr. Xu also received the title of “kind and filial person in 2020” and was commended at the opening ceremony of the 12th China Filial Festival.
