My name is Lu Xiaomei, and I am an ordinary housewife. I am married to my husband Li Jianguo, who is an engineer in a machinery factory.
The son married a wife named Li Yali, who is a gentle and kind girl, and everyone likes her very much.
However, misfortunes in life happened one day. Li Yali suddenly had a cerebral thrombosis and became a vegetative person.
This sudden blow plunged our family into great pain.
Faced with this dilemma, I decided to use my own way to help Li Yali so that she no longer felt lonely. I carefully wipe her body every day and do everything I can for her.
Who would have expected that this simple video would attract the enthusiastic attention of netizens. The video quickly went viral, with some people calling me "the wisest daughter-in-law in the country" and others hailing me as "the great daughter-in-law".
And it was at this time that my mother-in-law suddenly showed her true attitude. When she saw this video, she said to me in a mocking tone: "If you have time to shoot these videos, you might as well spend more time with your son."
I shot back angrily: "You're really calculating, I'm just recording a video, and it's not that I don't accompany your son."
As soon as these words came out, I suddenly felt a burst of anger, and my face turned pale with anger: "Mother-in-law, do you think I have not fulfilled my responsibilities as a daughter-in-law?" I take care of Yali every day so that she no longer feels lonely and hopeless in this world.
The mother-in-law was silent, her eyes flashing with tears: "I'm sorry Yali, and I'm sorry for you." ”
At this time, her husband Li Jianguo appeared, and he patted his mother-in-law on the shoulder: "Mom, Xiaomei is right, you have to care more about Yali in the future."
Since then, the mother-in-law has begun to realize her mistakes, and she will take care of Li Yali every day, feed her, and chat with her.
And I continue to keep recording videos about Li Yali, and I hope to encourage more people to pay attention to those in need around them.
As the days passed, my relationship with my mother-in-law gradually improved. We helped, understood, and supported each other, and despite the friction and friction, we slowly learned to tolerate each other.
At this time, my husband Li Jianguo's brother Li Minghua suddenly returned home. He is a businessman, he works hard all year round and rarely comes home.
Our family got together in the living room, Li Minghua looked at Li Yali lying on the bed, his eyes were full of guilt: "It's all my fault, if I hadn't pushed Li Ming to this point of no return, Yali wouldn't have been like this."
I hurriedly comforted him: "Brother, it's not all your fault, everyone is responsible, the important thing is that we face and solve the problem together."
But Li Minghua shook his head: "No, it's me who ruined my brother's happiness." I've always felt that he didn't deserve Yali, so I've always been against them being together.
I felt Li Minghua's inner torture and self-blame, so I gently held his hand: "Brother, things that have passed cannot be changed, the important thing for you now is to do your best to make up for it, care about Yali, and pay attention to her recovery."
Li Minghua's eyes were red, and he held my hand tightly: "Xiaomei, thank you for your tolerance and support for us, and thank you for your family's tolerance of me."
Just when Li Yali's condition was gradually improving, we were facing a new dilemma. Li Yali's recovery requires a lot of financial support, and our family's financial situation is not well-off.
Countless caring people have forwarded and donated, they have not only given us huge financial support, but also given us endless encouragement and strength.
Now the home is full of warmth and harmony, and we no longer quarrel and complain, but understand, tolerate and respect each other.
However, life is always full of uncertainties and challenges, how do we deal with the problems that lie ahead?
One day, my son Li Ming suddenly came to my house and said to me with an angry expression: "Mom, why are you making these videos? Don't you feel ashamed? ”
I was stunned, I didn't expect my son to object to me making a video. I tried to control my emotions: "Son, I just want more people to know Li Yali through video.
The son sighed: "Mom, do you know? After watching these videos, Li Yali cried silently in bed every day, and she felt that she had become a burden to you.
When I heard this, my heart was like a knife. I never realized that this kind of behavior of mine would put pressure and burden on Li Yali.
My son looked at me with tears streaming down his face, and suddenly felt a little distressed: "Mom, I didn't mean to blame you. It's just that the current Internet atmosphere is too complicated, and many people say that the wind is the rain.
I nodded silently, grateful for my son's concern and understanding. I began to reflect on my own actions and realized that my blind actions could bring negativity to Li Yali.
The next day, my son and I went to the hospital to visit Li Yali. Seeing the smile on her face made me feel very guilty.
Li Yali smiled lightly: "Sister Xiaomei, I can understand your intentions. You pushed me onto the balcony to shoot a video, just so that I could see more of the outside world, I know in my heart.
I breathed a sigh of relief, relieved by Li Yali's understanding. I found that I had been doing one thing for Li Yali, but I didn't communicate with her and didn't really understand her heart.
When I got home, I decided I wanted to make some changes. I stopped shooting videos, chatted with Li Yali, and spent time watching movies and listening to music with her.
The husband and son also saw this change, and they also took the initiative to take care of Li Yali.
However, just when we thought that the family was in harmony, a new contradiction crept in. Li Yali's parents came to visit her out of the blue, but they objected to the way we took care of Li Yali.
My mother-in-law gradually paid attention to Li Yali's care, but the conflict in our family has not been resolved. One night, Li Yali suddenly had a high fever, and the situation became very urgent.
But just when the doctor was examining Li Yali, her mother-in-law suddenly lost her temper.
She pointed at me and asked loudly, "It's all your fault!" Didn't you once be dismissive of Li Yali? Now she's sick and you're pretending to care again! My face instantly turned red, and I replied angrily: "Mother-in-law, you are doing nothing!" I've been trying my best to take care of Yali, why are you always prejudiced against me? ”
After the doctor's treatment, Li Yali's condition gradually stabilized. But the quarrels in our house did not stop.
I understood that my mother-in-law had always felt that I could not replace her position in the family, and that my efforts had made her feel threatened.
I can't escape the reality of the predicament. I decided to find an opportunity to have a good conversation with my mother-in-law to resolve the misunderstandings and conflicts between us.
She immediately stopped what she was doing, and her eyes unabashedly revealed a hint of surprise. I said in a gentle tone, "Mother-in-law, I know that there are many contradictions between us, but we are members of the same family, and we should be united.
Please give me a chance.
The mother-in-law was silent for a while, then sighed: "Maybe I'm too stubborn." I saw that you took care of Yali, and although I was grateful in my heart, I couldn't help but feel that you were stealing my place.
I quickly explained: "Mother-in-law, I don't want to replace you, I just want to help Yali and make her feel the warmth of the family."
My mother-in-law looked at me with a flash of emotion in her eyes. She gradually let go of the knot, she took my hand, with tears on her face: "Xiaomei, I'm sorry for you, and I'm sorry for Yali."
I gently shook her hand and said gratefully, "Mother-in-law, thank you for your understanding and support. Together, we will get through this.
One day, Li Ming suddenly came home with his child. He told me that Li Yali's brother had been in a car accident and that they needed help taking care of him for a while.
However, the mother-in-law disagreed. She insisted that we had taken care of Li Yali enough and should not worry about other people anymore.
A few days later, Li Ming's little child began to make a fuss at home. He was disobedient and threw things, and I was helpless.
The mother-in-law's negative attitude added to the tension in the family. I realized that the difficulties in the family often do not only come from external pressures, but more often from internal conflicts.
In order to ease the tension, I decided to sit down with my mother-in-law and have a good talk. When I asked her why she was reluctant to help, she was silent for a moment before she could barely name some of the unspeakable reasons.
It turned out that my mother-in-law had always felt that her place in the family had been replaced by my sudden status as an internet celebrity. She felt that Li Yali's vegetative condition was the only opportunity for her to have a voice in her family, and my video event made her feel that she was once again ignored in her family.
I deeply felt her inner pain, and I apologized to her and assured her that I would pay more attention to everyone in the family.
Gradually, the relationship between me and my mother-in-law began to ease. Together, we made some rules for Little and made a common family plan.
I realized that the family is not a utopia free of disputes and contradictions, but a delicate system that requires constant adjustment and communication.
