I received a call from my mom early in the morning, and she cried on the phone saying that she had quarreled with my dad again, and this time she had to get a divorce.
This situation has happened many times in our family, and my mother and my father have been arguing all their lives and looking at each other unpleasantly.
My mom was stubborn and sensitive, and my dad was grumpy and machismo, and the two often quarreled over trivial matters.
My dad's biggest advantage is that he doesn't hold grudges, and he doesn't mention it after the quarrel, but my mother can remember it for a lifetime, and as long as she quarrels, she will take out the old things and talk about them once, and scold my dad for bullying her.
We are caught in the middle as children, in a dilemma, the public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, so we can only persuade this and that.
Slightly biased towards any one, the other one is absolutely unrelenting, either angry and not eating, or hiding in the room and crying.
My mother moved the idea of divorce several times, and my father was even more fearless, and shouted at my mother: "Leave and leave, who is afraid of whom!"
One year, my mother went to the Civil Affairs Bureau, and after being persuaded by the staff, she called me to persuade her to go home.
As I grew older, I thought my dad and mom would be able to restrain their tempers and tolerate each other and be considerate.
But it backfired, the old couple still quarreled for three days, this time my mother dropped the tableware directly and scolded the ancestors for eighteen generations!
My dad is almost 70 years old, crying and calling my brother to ask him to take my mom to his house and live his own life in the future.
My mother was not far behind, and immediately called me to complain, constantly telling her about the grievances she had suffered over the years and how angry she was.
Finally, I discussed it with my brother and agreed to take my mother to the city, let the old couple separate for a while, and then calm down.
I originally planned to let my mom stay at my house for a while, but my brother meant to let my mom go to live with him first, and pick up the children by the way.
On this issue, I must put my younger brother first, since he has asked so much to be a son, I can't keep my mother as a daughter.
After my mom stayed at my brother's house for three days, my brother-in-law started calling me and complaining about my mom's various shortcomings and minor problems!
For example, she doesn't like to cook, she buys fried food for her nephew every day, she doesn't talk when the family sits together, and goes back to her room to lie down after eating.
Indulged in his nephew playing with his mobile phone, had a bad smell on his body, couldn't tell the difference between a face towel and a foot cloth, washed underwear in the basin, and so on.
My brother-in-law complained: "Since our mother came, I have quarreled with your brother several times, and now I don't want to go home after work, I feel too depressed, I really can't stand it." ”
Listening to my brother-in-law's meaning, if my mother continues to live in her house, she and my brother should not be able to get by, let me think of a way.
I secretly complained that my brother and daughter-in-law had a lot of things, and the house was bought by my father, and it was my brother who strongly asked my mother to go to his house to live, and it was only three days that I couldn't accommodate my mother?
But it's good to think about these words in my heart, and I can't say them, so I had to comfort my brother and daughter-in-law a few words and ask her to be more considerate.
Two days later, my brother-in-law called me again, this time she was not polite, and asked me to pick up my mother, otherwise I would not go home to live.
I hung up the phone, and without saying a word, I immediately ran to my brother-in-law's house, and took my mother to my house in anger, so that she could live in peace.
As soon as I entered the house, my mother began to complain to me, saying that my brother was afraid of his daughter-in-law and could not be the master, so he didn't dare to say a word at home.
said that her brother-in-law lay on the sofa and played with her mobile phone after work, ignored her, pretended not to hear her when she talked, and didn't say anything when asked.
After saying that, my brother-in-law began to scold my dad again, saying how difficult she has been all these years, how my dad has bullied her, and how much she has been wronged.
Over and over again, over and over again, there were many things that my mom had said several times, but she seemed to have forgotten and brought them up over and over again.
I listened patiently to her for four or five hours, and finally I was almost asleep, and my mother stopped talking and went back to her room to rest.
On the first day, my mother took a shower, and I could already smell a sour smell on her, but I didn't dare to say it, so I took advantage of her bathing to put her changed underwear in the basin and soak it.
The next day, my mom continued to complain to me about my dad, and I couldn't help but remind her that it had been said several times.
My mom changed the subject.
After dinner in the evening, I boiled hot water, arranged for my son to wash up, and then told my mother that it would be comfortable to soak my feet later.
But my mother said, "My feet are not dirty, so I don't need to wash them." ”
But I obviously smelled my mother's feet smelly, she took off her shoes and lay on the sofa after eating to watch videos, and I could smell the smell of feet when I sat next to her.
In the next few days, too, I openly and secretly reminded my mother to wash her feet before going to bed, but my mother either pretended not to hear or ignored me.
When it's time to go to bed, go straight to the house to rest.
For a whole week, my mother didn't wash her feet once, she was a little better with her shoes on, as soon as she took off her shoes, she immediately smelled a smell of stinky feet.
The room where she sleeps can stun people as soon as she enters, but fortunately, the weather is warm, and she can ventilate every day to get rid of the smell of the house.
In addition to not paying attention to hygiene, my mother also likes to look at her phone, and my son is doing his homework first thing after school.
After finishing his homework, he would do some crafts or build blocks, and I would limit him to watching TV for an hour a day.
But since my mom came, my son couldn't help it.
When he came home from school at noon, he just watched his grandmother lying on his mobile phone, and he was clamoring to watch TV, and he was also clamoring to watch TV at night.
didn't let him watch it, he started crying, saying that grandma was watching videos, and for the sake of my mother's face, I could only let my son watch TV.
After living for a week, I finally realized the complaint of my brother and daughter-in-law, and there are indeed many inconveniences in living with the elderly.
It's annoying to be a daughter, let alone someone else's daughter-in-law.
It is estimated that my father's anger has also disappeared, and my brother called him and asked him to coax my mother to let my mother go back, after all, they are still an old couple.
The children have a home, and it is not the same thing to follow anyone, and if they can't take care of themselves in the future, that's another story.
But if it's just because of a quarrel, the old couple will go their own way, outsiders will know the joke, and the children won't have so much energy to take care of it.
My dad was so knowledgeable that he asked my brother to take him to my house and apologized to my mom in front of us, telling her not to be like him.
My mother was also holding back a breath of anger, and wanted my dad to bow his head first and admit his mistake, but now my dad gave her a step, and then borrowed the slope to get off the donkey.
After the family finished eating, my mother happily returned to my hometown with my father, and a storm finally subsided, and my brother and I were also relieved.
