My name is Li Mei, I am from the countryside of Henan, and I have been living in the countryside of my hometown since I married my husband Wang Qiang. We had a son together, named Xiao Ming. Over the years, our family of three has lived a simple and unpretentious life, my relationship with my in-laws is also good, and my son Xiaoming is also very obedient and sensible.
It wasn't until two years ago that my in-laws passed away one after another, and my husband Wang Qiang decided to take Xiao Ming and me to live in the city. When I first arrived in a strange city, I was a little Xi to the people around me who felt cold and strange. We bought a neighborhood house on the outskirts of the city, and I started to settle in.
One day at noon, I was cooking when I suddenly heard the doorbell ring. When I opened the door, it was an aunt dressed in pale yellow clothes, looking at me with a smile: "Hello, I'm Ms. Zhang next door to you, I heard that you just moved here, so I came here to say hello, we are neighbors!"
I was a little surprised, so I hurriedly asked her to come in and sit down, and serve her fruit. Ms. Zhang seemed very kind, chatted with me while eating fruit, and cared about my work and life. I also answered her questions enthusiastically and felt that she was really nice.
Ms. Zhang said: "We are all neighbors who live together, just like a big family, if you need anything, just ask, I will definitely help you." ”
I smiled and said, "Thank you, Auntie, I am not very familiar with the environment when I first came here, it is great to have a neighbor like you." ”
Since that day, Ms. Zhang and I have become good friends. She would often come to my house to sit down, and sometimes I would give her some of the food I cooked. I also often go to Ms. Zhang's house as a guest, and she will warm me up and cook me all kinds of delicious food.
One day, Ms. Zhang said to me: "Meimei, you can call me mom in the future, you see that we have such a good relationship, just like a family." ”
I said happily, "Okay, Mom, you're so good to me, of course I'm going to call you Mom." From today onwards, you will be my mother!"
From that day on, I respected and cared for Ms. Zhang as much as I did for my biological mother. Every time I went to her house, I would carefully pour water for her, tidy up her room, and do everything I could to make her happy. Ms. Zhang also treats me as her own daughter, and often cares about my life and gives me a hand.
"Mom, my son is getting married, you must come to the wedding!"
When Ms. Zhang heard that my son was going to get married, she was so happy that she couldn't stop talking: "Great! Our Xiao Ming is getting married! Mom will definitely go to put on his wedding dress, and she must not miss his big day." ”
I said excitedly, "Mom, thank you so much! Xiao Ming will be very happy to have you here." The wedding will be held the day after tomorrow, and I will pick you up when the time comes, and we will go to the wedding company together. ”
Ms. Zhang smiled and nodded: "Good boy, of course Mom will go." By the way, are you ready for the gift money? Generally, you should prepare a red envelope for the newcomer. ”
I was a little embarrassed and said, "We are still preparing for this, but we don't have much money, so we may not be able to prepare too much." ”
Ms. Zhang thought for a while and said, "That's it, Mom won't accept your gift money, anyway, we are a family." Come, give, this is a little bit of heart prepared by Mom, you can take it. ”
After speaking, Ms. Zhang took out a red envelope from her bag and handed it to me. I hurriedly said, "Mom, how can you do this, for such a big event as marriage, we must prepare gift money." ”
Ms. Zhang waved her hand and said, "Take it, Mom will prepare a little bit, you can use it." ”
I was flattered and thanked again and again. Ms. Zhang also told me all the preparations for the wedding, and I wrote them down one by one, and planned to prepare well when I returned home.
The day before the wedding, I went to Ms. Zhang's house and asked her to go to the wedding company tomorrow to dress the bride in her wedding dress.
"Mom, let's leave for the wedding company at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, and I'll pick you up then." ”
Ms. Zhang smiled and said, "Okay, Mom remembers." By the way, before you go tomorrow, you give your mother 10 yuan for the fare, and your mother will treat it as the money for you to ask your mother to dress the bride in a wedding dress. ”
I was a little surprised that Ms. Zhang had never mentioned money to me before. But after thinking about it, 10 yuan is nothing, so I said, "Okay Mom, it's only 10 yuan for changing your mouth, and I'll give it to you tomorrow morning." ”
"Mom, I'm here to pick you up! Let's go to the wedding company!"
After a while, Ms. Zhang opened the door, and I hurriedly handed her 10 yuan: "Mom, this is the money I promised you yesterday for changing your mouth, please accept it." ”
Ms. Zhang took the money and said with a smile: "Good boy, Mom will accept it." Let's hurry and don't make the bride wait. ”
I nodded happily and took the car with Ms. Zhang to the wedding company. As soon as I entered, I saw my daughter-in-law, Li Sisi, and her girlfriends busy in the dressing room.
I hurriedly pulled Ms. Zhang over and said to Li Sisi: "Sisi, this is your mother-in-law Zhang, she came to dress you in a wedding dress today!"
Li Sisi smiled shyly and called out, "Hello mother-in-law." Ms. Zhang said happily: "Good boy, let Mom dress you, today is your big day!"
I helped hand over the wedding dress and various accessories, while Ms. Zhang carefully dressed and sorted out Li Sisi.
After more than an hour, Li Sisi finally changed into a complete wedding dress, stood in front of the mirror and turned around, and said happily: "Mother-in-law, thank you, I am married!"
Ms. Zhang smiled and nodded: "Very beautiful! The groom will definitely be fascinated by you." ”
I also excitedly complimented: "Sisi, you are so beautiful, like a fairy!"
After seeing Li Sisi off, Ms. Zhang and I went to the banquet hall and began to set up the venue. After I was busy, Ms. Zhang also helped me set up the tables and chairs together.
At noon, Ms. Zhang said that she was a little tired and asked me to buy her something to eat. I hurriedly pulled out my wallet and found that there were only a few dollars left.
I said embarrassedly, "Mom, I'm sorry, I don't have much money on me now, and I'll prepare red envelopes for my son for the rest." I'm going to get the money and I'll be back soon!"
After saying that, I hurried to get the money. Withdrew the money and came back, it was already an hour later. Ms. Zhang's face was not very good-looking.
I hurriedly handed her 100 yuan and said, "Mom, I'm sorry to keep you waiting." It's the money for lunch, so you can order something. ”
Ms. Zhang didn't answer, and said coldly: "I won't eat, don't call me mom, I'll go back." ”
I hurriedly grabbed her to explain, but Ms. Zhang shook off my hand and left angrily.
I was very sad that my mother-in-law, who was the most important person at the wedding, left suddenly, what should I do?
An hour later, the wedding officially began. I had been waiting for Ms. Zhang to come back, but I never saw her.
When the bride and groom entered, I was still looking around, hoping that Ms. Zhang would come back. Just as the host announced that the newlyweds were exchanging rings, Ms. Zhang suddenly walked in briskly.
I excitedly stepped forward and hugged her: "Mom, you're finally back! ”
Ms. Zhang did not speak with a cold face, and sat down directly in front of the main table. I knew she was still angry with me, so I had to wait for her carefully.
After the ring exchange ceremony, the banquet entered a climax. I saw that Ms. Zhang had been sullen and decided to go up and talk to her.
"Mom, I'm sorry, it's my fault that I made you wait for a long time. I'm really, really sorry, don't be angry. ”
Ms. Zhang snorted: "I'm not your mother yet, don't call me mom." ”
I hurriedly said, "Mom, don't say that, you are so good to me, of course it is my mother." I know it's wrong, and I'll treat you well in the future. ”
Ms. Zhang still looked angry. I anxiously took out my wallet from my bag and said, "Mom, this is my entire net worth, please accept it as my atonement." I really know that I was wrong, so forgive me. ”
Ms. Zhang looked at it and didn't take the money, but her face finally eased.
At this moment, the host announced that the groom was going to toast the bride's family. I hurriedly pulled Ms. Zhang to the main table, and Xiao Ming stood up with a wine glass, about to toast Ms. Zhang.
At this time, Ms. Zhang suddenly spoke: "Young man, what do you want to call me?"
Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, and stammered: "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law." ”
Ms. Zhang snorted: "I'm not your mother-in-law yet, you can call me aunt in the future!"
The guests present were stunned, and no one expected that Ms. Zhang would say this at the wedding.
I saw that Ms. Zhang was still angry, so I quickly pulled her aside and said, "Mom, today is my son's big day, don't be angry with him, it's not good to be in front of so many people." Shall we go home and talk about it?"
Ms. Zhang reluctantly nodded. I breathed a sigh of relief and coaxed her again: "Mom, after a while, you drank Xiao Ming's toast and forgot about it." I promise I'll apologize to you when I get home, we're still family. ”
Ms. Zhang was silent for a while, and finally said, "It's okay, just think that I charge you 10 yuan to change your tone." But you have to make amends when you go home, and I can forgive you!"
I nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay Mom, I will definitely make amends, just open your mouth!"
Ms. Zhang returned to the main table satisfied, and Xiao Ming raised his glass again to toast her, calling her mother-in-law. Ms. Zhang smiled and drank happily.
After the banquet, I accompanied Ms. Zhang home. As soon as I entered the door, I began to apologize to her: "Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of you today. I apologize to you. ”
Ms. Zhang said lightly: "It's not entirely your fault, Mom is also a little stingy today." But the key is that you disappointed your mother too much, your mother is so good to you, you forget your mother. ”
Ms. Zhang pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, Mom will give you another chance." You're going to have to keep your mom in mind all the time, you know?"
I said excitedly, "I know Mom! I will definitely keep your teachings in mind and be a good and filial daughter." ”
From that day on, I did correct my attitude and served Ms. Zhang in every detail. I would go to Ms. Zhang's house on time every morning to clean up, and then carefully prepare a hearty breakfast and deliver it to her bed.
At noon, I will cook all kinds of nutritious food and personally deliver it to Ms. Zhang's house to eat with her. In the evening, after work, I would go to Ms. Zhang's house to help her massage and chat, and I would not leave until she fell asleep.
On weekends, I would take my husband and children to Ms. Zhang's house, and the family would chat with her, sing, play chess, and watch TV. We are like a family.
As time went by, Ms. Zhang became more and more satisfied with me, and often praised me for being a good and filial daughter. Once, she said to me happily: "Meimei, Mom really didn't hurt you in vain, you are really attentive to Mom now, Mom is very pleased." ”
I happily said, "Mom, this is what I should do." You have been so good to me, I must be filial to you and make you happy. I will always be by your side in the future, and I will never leave you. ”
Ms. Zhang smiled and nodded, touched my head again and said, "Good boy, Mom believes in you." Let's have a mother-daughter game, and we will discuss what we have in the future. ”
I said excitedly, "Mom, we will always be together." ”
In this way, under the influence of Ms. Zhang, I became a filial and virtuous daughter. My husband and son are also influenced by me and respect Ms. Zhang very much and visit her often. Our family and Ms. Zhang have formed a harmonious and happy family.
I was so excited that I burst into tears: "Mom, what do you say, your body will definitely get better." I will always be with you and take care of you for the rest of my life!"
Ms. Zhang smiled slightly and did not speak again. A week later, Ms. Zhang passed away due to illness. When I was packing up my belongings, I found that she had left me a large sum of money, and I couldn't help but cry when I saw it.
Since then, I have been thinking about Ms. Zhang all the time, often visiting her tombstone and preparing her favorite dishes to be offered at the grave on the day of her death.
In the world, meeting such a loving mother is the greatest blessing in my life. Although she is gone, her love will always remain in my heart. I will always remember her teachings and live a simple and happy life.
