My mother-in-law was lying in the hospital waiting for money for surgery, and my father-in-law called me and my husband for help, wanting us to support the point.
I was about to go out when I pulled out my bank card, and my mother snatched it up and said bitterly: Are you heartless or, you are confinement with children, they are not on the side. Now that I have difficulty thinking of you, hang them out, and don't go! ”
Husband Meng Chao was still downstairs waiting for me to take money to go to the hospital, I was anxious to scratch my ears and scratch my cheeks, soft words to explain to my mother, although my in-laws did not help. But Meng Chao came back from work to take the children to do housework, and everything was discussed with me, and we never blushed. Looking at his face, my mother-in-law's life is at stake, and I can't sit idly by.
My mom poked me in the head and said, "You're just so good at talking, they dare to bully you like this." Don't think I don't know, when you buy a house, you ask them to borrow money, but they are a dime, saying that they will keep the money for your uncle to marry his daughter-in-law. If I hadn't supported you fifty thousand, would you have been able to afford a house? ”
My face was red, and I didn't blame my mother for being angry, the year before I bought a house with Meng Chao, there was not enough money, and my in-laws refused to help.
My mother heard about it, and without saying a word, she called me fifty thousand yuan. Meng Chao and I are grateful to my mother. This time they came back from the provincial city of my brother, and Meng Chao graciously invited them to come to my house to live, and they were very attentive in serving tea and water.
My mother was afraid that my heart would be soft, so she added another fire: "I can inquire, last year your little uncle got married, and your mother-in-law not only gave an eighty-eight thousand bride price, but also appeared in the village." She funded 200,000 yuan to buy a house for your brother-in-law. ”
My mother-in-law's family and in-laws are from the same village, and it is not surprising that my mother knows these situations. The more my mother said, the angrier she became, and she snorted coldly: "When you got married, your mother-in-law pinched and twisted before she took five thousand yuan in dowry, and she couldn't even reach the fraction of your concubine!" Let her count on her little son now! ”
I know that my mother is also sorry for me, but I have always been grinning and do not value money seriously. Now we have survived the first two years of the most difficult time with children, and we have not been so angry with our mother-in-law.
Meng Chao and I married nine years ago, and now the situation is different, and the bride price is much more common. This will make my mother-in-law have cancer, and my life will enter the countdown, and I don't want to leave Meng Chao with regrets for the thirty thousand yuan surgery fee.
Let my good words be exhausted, my mother just grabbed the card and didn't let go: "You want to take the money away today, there is no door!" ”
Meng Chao waited impatiently downstairs, ran up to urge me, and when he saw this situation, he instantly understood something, and his face was a little ugly.
My mother saw that his face was ugly, and her heart was on fire, and she shouted at him: "I am all for your own good, the two children are still young, and the days of spending money are still ahead!" Cancer is a bottomless pit, there are one and two, after chemotherapy, your father asked you again, do you give? Your father is also unreasonable, my daughter did not enjoy their blessings, but because they drank the northwest wind? ”
Meng Chao was like a cat whose tail had been trampled, jumping to his feet in a hurry. I was afraid that they would pinch up, so I quickly pulled Meng Chao downstairs and asked him to borrow some from relatives and friends first, and then return it later.
Meng Chao's face was thin, he couldn't wipe his face to borrow money, he angrily complained to me: "Whatever you do, let your mother interfere!" ”
This made me roll my eyes and smile bitterly, I was really a pig looking in the mirror, and the two sides were not human.
I knew that my father-in-law was in a hurry, and he could not avoid being in a hurry to get on the fire, so he suppressed the anger and persuaded him: "My mother is old, you don't want to see her in general." ”

Meng Chao forced me to ask for the card, I know that my mother's temper has always been a word, my father still took her and did not have a fight, let Meng Chao think of another idea.
The two of us had an argument downstairs, and my mother really listened upstairs, and she rushed down with a sigh of relief: "You two don't argue, I and your father will go back to the rural hometown now, don't annoy people here!" After saying that, she turned her head and left, and my father wiped his tears and carried a large bag and a small bag behind him.
I was instantly a big head and quickly chased after it.
The house in my hometown has long been dilapidated and uninhabitable. Before my parents came back from the provincial city, they asked me to rent them a house, but they came back for a short time and did not go to live. I'm good at talking and persuading them to rent a good house.
A while ago, I just had hemangioma surgery on my thigh, and I haven't recovered well, I have limited mobility, and I haven't had time to clean up the house. In the courtyard, there was a pile of garbage left by the previous tenant, and the doors and windows were not cleaned, and it looked a little gray.
My mother was heartbroken, saying that she was like a dog that had lost her family, and when she was old, she didn't even have a home, and she cried.
I was ashamed to pick up a broom to clean the yard, and my dad wiped a handful of tears to help.
After cleaning up to the meal, I was ready to go to the market to buy vegetables, walked outside the wall and remembered that I didn't take my mobile phone, so I folded it back. As soon as I got to the door, I heard my dad persuade my mom to give me back the card.
My mother was full of anger: "I don't give her the money!" Let her rent a house is to test whether she really gives us a pension, and the rented house is not her own home! She really can't figure it out! She took the money to please her in-laws, and she didn't know how to use this money to buy a house for both of us! Sons and daughters are all unreliable, raise them, they live in a few windows, we don't even have a nest, simply find a rope to hang! ”
My dad's ears were behind his back, and my mom talked to him all the time, and it was hard for me to hear them.
My mother's words were like ear scrapers hitting my face, and I couldn't believe my ears, it turned out that my mother had so many bends in her stomach. No wonder that in recent years, she and her brothers and daughters-in-law have always been conflicted.

My brother stayed in the provincial city after graduating from college, and later married and had children, bought a house and settled down, and my parents have always been proud. After the birth of his brother's child, his parents went to help him with the child, and he did not return to his hometown for seven or eight years.
Last month, my mother and my sister-in-law had an argument, which was caused by my brother-in-law's mother-in-law's gallstone going to the provincial city for surgery, and after the operation, she lived in my brother's house, and my sister-in-law would not let her go.
My mother was in a hurry, and she persuaded her mother to return to her hometown behind her sister-in-law's back, and when her sister-in-law knew about it, she had a big fight with my mother.
During the quarrel, my mother learned that the down payment for my brother's house was all from my mother-in-law, and she couldn't hang on to her face, and she packed her bags and came back in a huff.
Before my mom came back, she asked me on the phone to rent them a house. I tried to invite them to live with me, but she didn't agree, saying she didn't want to be poked in the spine by my in-laws.
I saw that she was resolute, so I listened to her, and near my house, I rented her an exclusive courtyard with a good environment at a high price, and paid the rent and utilities in advance.
Meng Chao's pained teeth Hanako: "You don't rent a unit of thousands of yuan, but you want to rent this exclusive courtyard." The rent is about to catch up with our living expenses for a year, you are so generous! ”
In the past two years, because I did not go out to work with the second treasure, the family's expenses all depended on Meng Chao's little salary, and the account owed for buying a house was paid off, and I just had a little savings. I know that Meng Chao is worried about money, but I think about not being with my parents for many years, I just want them to do everything as they wish, and I don't care about the thousands of yuan rent that comes out of the year.
At this time, I listened to my mother's words to understand that she said that she wanted to rent a house, but she actually wanted me to buy a house for her.
But she knows that the house price is so high now, I am not financially rich, I have to take out a loan to buy a house, my mother is afraid of being criticized and robbed of me, she will not say it directly, I did not guess the nerves.
My mother was still complaining about something, I was so distraught that I didn't have time to listen carefully, I went in and got my mobile phone, and I came out with a stuffy head.
I came home in a daze and received a call from my brother, who asked me in a tired tone, "My mother said you kicked her out?" ”
A sentence made me cry bitterly and choke for half a day before I made the truth of the matter clear to my brother.
My brother said that since my parents wanted to buy a house to live in, he would let me buy it for my parents near my house. He tried to find a way to do the money, and lent me thirty thousand yuan to use for my mother-in-law's surgery.
After hanging up the phone, I exhaled a long breath, so that the housing problem was solved and my mother would not say anything.
As it turned out, I still underestimated my mom's ability to do things.

I cooked a meal for my mom, and she and I were in tears in the house.
When I saw this situation, I remembered my mother's words about finding a rope to hang, and my heart was full of excitement, and I even coaxed them to pull them back.
Meng Chao came up with a smiley face and apologized, saying that he was too anxious just now, and he didn't choose his words, so that his parents would not be assured.
My mom held her head high and seemed to have confidence.
The next day I talked to the landlord about a train, and the landlord agreed to return the house, and the landlord said that I unilaterally broke the contract and deducted a thousand yuan in liquidated damages.
When my mother found out, she rolled her eyes and scolded me for being damned.
My mother felt that I begged her to come back, no longer hiding her dissatisfaction with me, she completely let go of herself, and a little thing attacked me. The food was not to her taste, so she scolded me, saying that now she can still move, I will ignore her so much, I will not be able to move in the future, I will not lie in bed and starve.
I defended myself a little, and she said that I was showing her my face, looking for death and life, and I was clamoring to run away from home, and I was tormented by her, so I had to shut up.
My husband complained that I was like a powder keg, at one point, and the two children were cautious and trembling every day, for fear of provoking me to get angry.
If I continue like this, I will be on the verge of collapse. I put my time and energy into finding a house every day, hoping to buy it quickly.
Every time I went out to see the house, my mother would sneer and mutter to my father. I knew she was just saying that I was in a hurry to let them move out, and I didn't care about it.
Soon, I looked at a simple second-hand house. On the day of signing the contract, my mother gave me the card, and I paid a deposit of twenty thousand yuan, and returned my brother's thirty thousand yuan by the way.
The landlord asked if the house was written with my name, and I was about to refuse, but my mother rushed to say: "Don't write her, she only paid a few dollars to buy this house, and the big head is still my son out, write my son's name." ”
I twisted my face to the side in embarrassment, and tears of grievance flowed straight into my stomach.
After paying the deposit, on the way back, my mother was satisfied, and began to say the same thing: "If I hadn't had a vision with your father back then, and I was tired and tired to provide for your brother's study, would he have the income he has now?" Look at the people of his age in the village, all moving bricks at the construction site. ”
My mother's words were quickly punched in the face by reality.
That night, my sister-in-law called my mother to cry, and she said that in order to buy a house for her parents, my brother suddenly borrowed 200,000 yuan. Now under the epidemic, the income has shrunk a lot, the car loan and the mortgage have long been overwhelmed by them, and then lend so much money, the family has to drink the northwest wind.
She has been in a cold war with her brother for several days because of this matter, in a word, if her brother does not lend money to my mother to buy a house, she will divorce.
My mother was domineering in front of me, and as soon as she came to my sister-in-law, she was like a frosted eggplant.
She put the responsibility on my head, she said it was all my idea, I wanted to buy them a house, I wanted to put the house in my name. Fortunately, she had already figured out my purpose and was not going to buy it.

My mother threw this big black cauldron over, and I was so angry that my tears instantly broke the embankment.
I took the money, the time and energy, all to make her satisfied, and in the end I ended up being selfish. No matter how hard I tried to catch up, I couldn't satisfy my mother's thoughts, I was too tired.
My mother hung up the phone and turned her head to vent her emotions at my father: "I already knew that this daughter-in-law was not okay, and I should have let my son leave her and remarry!" ”
She looked back and saw me shedding tears on the side, waving her hand indifferently: "Don't think about it too much." You and your brother are far away, it is rare to see each other once a year, and I have fallen out with your sister-in-law and cannot meet. It is also right to raise you and take some responsibility for your parents. ”
I silently went back to the bedroom, the house could not be bought, and the deposit of twenty thousand yuan was lost. For a small family like ours, every penny is paid for by real sweat, and it can't be wasted like this anymore.
For my mother's work, I made up my mind, and in the future, whatever she said, I would treat it as a bystander, and I would not let her fiddle with me as a private property. I put all my strength into it, and I couldn't get back the slightest positive feedback from her.
I still have to focus my time and energy on my own little home, after all, the children are still young and need my care, and I have neglected them too much lately.
You raise me small, I raise you old, the words are romantic and poetic, really do it, but it is so difficult.
Maybe like Meng Chao said, my mother is so noisy because she doesn't have a house to live in. We first worked hard to earn money, and in two years, when we had savings, no one would rely on us, and we would buy a house for my mother on our own.
At that time, maybe she will understand my sincerity.
