It is said that the family has a difficult scripture, the family lives together, there will inevitably be a variety of small contradictions, at this time if there is an extra "outsider" in the family, and do not know how to score inches, it is even more easy to become a mess.
In the following case, the hero is under the influence of not understanding the mother-in-law's behavior, luring the wolf into the house, resulting in his marriage almost in crisis.
After a year of marriage, Ah Wen and Xiao Fang finally ushered in a new life for the family. Just as they were immersed in joy, a new question arose. Arwen's mother had just undergone surgery a month ago and could not come over to take care of their mother and son, and Arwen also had to go to work, and could not always accompany his wife and children.
So Ah Wen discussed with Xiao Fang and wanted to hire a sister-in-law, although the price was not cheap, but this was also no way. Originally, Xiaofang also agreed, but Xiaofang was not discharged from the hospital, and she received a call from her mother. It turned out that when Xiaofang gave birth to a child and said hello to her mother's family, she mentioned this problem, so her mother volunteered to take care of Xiaofang's confinement.
Originally, Ah Wen did not think of his mother-in-law, but the mother-in-law still had to take care of his grandson in his hometown, so he gave up this idea, but now that the mother-in-law volunteered, Ah Wen naturally could not ask for it. Therefore, on the same day, Arwen returned home and quickly cleaned up the guest room, ready to welcome the arrival of his mother-in-law.
On the day Xiaofang was discharged from the hospital, the mother-in-law also came as promised, but what Ah Wen did not expect was that the mother-in-law also brought her 2-year-old grandson. Although unexpected, he was soon relieved. Arwen's brother-in-law and husband go out to work, leaving the child to live with the grandparents, if the child is left to the grandfather, it is estimated that the grandfather will not take good care of it.
On the same day, Arwen, who solved a big problem, was very happy, and personally cooked a sumptuous dinner to entertain the mother-in-law and the little nephew, and the family was happy and harmonious, and there was talk and laughter. When he went to bed at night, Ah Wen thanked Xiaofang gratefully, and said that he would wait for his mother-in-law to leave, and then wrap her a big red envelope.
The next day, Before going to work, Arwen left 300 yuan at the dinner table, told the mother-in-law that this was the meal fee for the day, and would give her 300 yuan every day in the future, so that the mother-in-law could buy some nutritious food for Xiaofang to eat. The mother-in-law, who was busy in the kitchen, smiled and agreed.
Every day after that, Arwen would leave 300 yuan at the dinner table. For the first few days everything was normal, but gradually, Arwen began to feel that something was wrong, why did the dishes on the dinner table become more and more light? When he asked XiaoFang with doubts, Xiaofang was embarrassed and unable to speak, which made Arvin immediately understand.
It turned out that the mother-in-law felt that the 300 yuan given by Arwen was too much, and the woman could not use so much money at all for confinement, nor did she have to eat so well. So she quietly lowered the standard of food, and the excess money was collected. After learning the truth, Arwen was not angry, but blamed himself for negligence.
Therefore, during dinner in the evening, Arwen found an opportunity to thank his mother-in-law and took out a large red envelope of ten thousand yuan on the spot. After the mother-in-law pushed off a few times, she accepted it with a smile. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Arwen euphemistically expressed that Xiaofang's milk was insufficient, so that the mother-in-law's future meals would be more nutritious.
After all this, Ah Wen felt that he had said everything he should say, and his mother-in-law just lacked heart and eyes, and he should understand his own meaning, right? The result did not disappoint him, and the next day's meal was indeed much more hearty. However, only the next day was a little more hearty, and after the end of the next day, the problem of the light meal was revived, which made Arwen intolerable.
Privately, Arwen asked Xiaofang about this, but Xiaofang seemed very helpless, she said that she had known it for a long time, but because her parents had been patriarchal since childhood, she had no right to speak at home, so she did not dare to accuse her mother in person, and did not dare to tell Arwen about this matter, worried that Arwen blamed her mother for this.
Half a month after the arrival of the mother-in-law, Arwen decided not to be patient anymore, he found an excuse to send the mother-in-law and the little nephew home, although the mother-in-law knew it, but because she got a big red envelope, she did not say anything, but she was not happy to pack up her things and go home.
After the mother-in-law left, Arwen called and asked his mother if there was a sister-in-law she knew, and the mother was surprised to ask his mother-in-law about it? After Explaining the matter simply, Ah Wen complained: "Please such a mother-in-law, or spend ten thousand to invite the sister-in-law!" ”
