The final solution

I was driving my grandchildren near a cemetery.
- Grandpa, they hide dead people in boxes and put them here - said Felix (6 years old).
- Yes, you are right.
- You are old grandpa, you will die soon.
- Yes, thanks for reminding me, I will book a place here tomorrow.
- But grandma is older than you.
- No, she is much younger than me.
- She is very, very, very old - confirmed Matilda (4 years old).
- She will die before you grandpa - announced Felix.
- You are wrong - I interrupt - I will die earlier.
- No grandpa, she will die earlier, but you will not marry anybody else! - stated Felix.
- Felix - she cannot die before me - who will cook us the soup? - I used the strongest argument.
- Yes Felix - Matilda was seriously alarmed - who will cook the soup?
- Grandpa, you will buy yourself baby food! - declared Felix triumphantly.
