But I'm worried that if my parents know my actual income, they will ask for more, such as buying a house and a car. My salary is definitely not enough to meet such a large consumption. So, when my parents asked me about my income, I always said, "I only have a salary of 3,000 yuan a month, which is not enough to spend." ”
I remember one day, my mom called me and asked if I had been promoted and raised in the company recently. I hurriedly lied and said, "Mom, how can an ordinary employee like me have any chance of promotion, I am responsible for some paperwork every day, and 3,000 yuan is already good." My mother said, "Why are there so few? The children of the same classmates are either 5,000 yuan or 10,000 yuan, why are you only 3,000?" I hurriedly found a reason: "The children of the same classmates are better than me." The mother said, "Alas, our daughter is so miserable, the salary is so low, how will she live in the future?" I was so weak that I hung up the phone after a few soft words.
I feel that I can't help them by lying to my parents, but for their good, I can only endure it. I often blame myself for being an unfilial daughter. But I also feel that if my parents know the truth, they will only worry more about it, which is not good for their health. When my parents called and asked, I would still say that I only had a salary of 3,000 yuan.
Later, I met my husband Xiao Zhang. We got married after a little over a year of dating. Xiao Zhang's parents are both retired workers of state-owned enterprises, and their pensions and various retirement benefits are very considerable, and their lives are very comfortable.
I trembled with anger after hearing this, but I didn't expect Xiao Zhang to be on my mother's side, I was a machine in his heart to earn money to support the family. I held back my anger and said, "Xiao Zhang, I'll give you one last chance, you decide for yourself who side you are on? If you are still so partial to your mother, we have only one way to divorce!"
Seeing that I was so resolute, Xiao Zhang was so anxious that he stomped his feet: "Don't be like this Xiaofang, you think that my mother's health is not good, can you help me this time?" I sneered: "Help you? This is what you want to help you? My salary is used to support your mother, is it to help you? Xiao Zhang, you are completely consuming me!" With that, I rushed out the door and began to prepare for the divorce process.
I was so sad and so angry. I think of my poor parents, who are old and not getting worse day by day, and I can't afford to provide for them. I hated myself for hiding it from them, and now I wish I could pay more for their treatment. I hate Xiao Zhang and his mother, I work hard to earn money, but they want to squeeze my hard-earned money, it's so immoral.
I called my mother and said that the company had recently reduced its staff and that I had been laid off. I had a vague feeling that my mother's voice was weak, but my own situation was also terrible, and there was no better way. I kept reassuring my mother that I would find a way, and hung up the phone and started crying. At this time, Xiao Zhang suddenly came in and begged me not to divorce, he cried more sadly than me, and I was completely unmoved. I knew that if I continued to walk with such a family, I would lose myself.
Just when I was busy dealing with the divorce procedures, a sudden phone call came in, my hand shook, and the phone almost fell. I picked it up with trembling hands, it was my classmate small. She choked up and told me that my dad had a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and had been admitted in critical condition.
The phone in my hand fell to the ground with a "click". I covered my mouth in surprise, tears welling up in my eyes again. I never expected that my mother-in-law, who has always been concerned about money, would choose to sponsor me without hesitation when I was in the most difficult time. This great kindness has left me unrepaid.
I picked up my phone tremblingly and expressed my sincerest gratitude to my mother-in-law. The mother-in-law said softly: "Hurry back to the hospital, your father's condition is not optimistic, and time is the most precious." I hung up the phone and immediately took a taxi back to the hospital. My mother looked a little strange when she saw me, but before I could elaborate, the doctor came and told me that I was ready to start the surgery. My mother and I kept walking around the operating room, feeling nervous.
My father was hospitalized for a few days for observation, and his condition steadily improved, and my mother and I were relieved to go home to rest. On the way home, I hid my quarrel with my mother-in-law from my mom and thanked her for her generosity. My mother kept telling me that I must take good care of my mother-in-law and not be ungrateful. I was speechless and silent all the way.
After sitting down face-to-face with my mother-in-law, I apologized to her with red eyes, saying that what I had done before was really excessive, and I was willing to pay her monthly living expenses according to her demands. The mother-in-law said gently: "Daughter-in-law, when I married into Xiao Zhang's father's family, I also resisted to hand over my salary like you. When I think about it now, I was too young to understand how families support each other. Don't embarrass yourself, just get used to it. ”
I couldn't stop crying, my heart full of remorse. I suddenly realized that many troubles in life can actually be faced with a more tolerant attitude. My mother-in-law helped me to redeem my father's debt without asking for anything in return, which made me see the deepest beauty of human nature. I made up my mind to be as generous and kind as my mother-in-law in the future, and to Xi emulate her demeanor.
I began to reflect that if it weren't for these two accidents, my mother-in-law and I might have been in a stalemate forever. And the arrangement of fate gave me the opportunity to re-examine my mother-in-law and her family, and discover the beautiful qualities that shine in them. My mother-in-law's generosity and generosity annihilated all the mustards between us, which also invisibly touched me and taught me to tolerate my family's faults. I am sincerely grateful to my mother-in-law for making me a better person.
Later, my father-in-law suffered a sudden myocardial infarction and needed immediate surgery. This time, my mother-in-law didn't have any extra words, but simply said to me: "You don't have to worry about money, just concentrate on taking care of your father-in-law." "My mother-in-law's trust and support made me feel the warmth of family affection, and I firmly told myself that I would always protect this home.
Nowadays, every Mid-Autumn Festival, I invite my parents to my in-law's house for a reunion. We sat around the table, laughing and laughing. My mother-in-law was always busy, and she exaggerated the best dishes and piled them up in her parents' bowls. Looking at the smiles on my parents' faces, I couldn't help but shed tears of emotion. The stories that have happened over the years have made our family more intimate than blood relatives today. I am sincerely grateful that fate has arranged for me to get to know these dear and dear people. After going through this series of stumbling through, my relationship with my mother-in-law has grown closer, and I have gradually accepted the reality of handing over part of my salary every month. My mother-in-law generously sponsored me three times, and I can't repay this kindness. I decided to care more about my mother-in-law in my life in the future, so that she could live a comfortable and comfortable old age.
I began to learn to cook the hometown dishes that my mother-in-law likes to eat, and although the craftsmanship is not very good, my mother-in-law always eats deliciously with a smile on her face. I also take time out of work to chat with my mother-in-law and listen to her reminiscences of her youthful stories. One day, my mother-in-law suddenly took my hand with tears in her eyes and said, "Xiaofang, thank you for being so good to me these days, you are like my own daughter." I couldn't hold back my tears, and I was moved like never before.
I begged my boss to arrange a flexible job for me so that I could have more time to take care of my mother-in-law. Although my salary has decreased a little, the time I can spend with my mother-in-law is priceless. Sometimes when I come home from work and see my mother-in-law sitting alone on the balcony in a daze, I will quietly walk over and put my arms around her shoulders; At night, when I can't sleep, I will go to my mother-in-law with hot milk to chat. Day by day, the bond between us grew deeper and deeper.
