I'm Xiaoli, an ordinary housewife. My husband Xiaoqiang and I have been married for ten years and we have two lovely daughters, Xiaofang and Xiaohong. Our family lives in a small building on the outskirts of the city, living a plain and happy life.
It all started with a phone call from my husband. That day, he was holding his mobile phone and looking at WeChat while frowning, and seemed to be a little irritable. I was busy doing my homework for Xiaofang, and when I saw this, I asked, "What's the matter, Xiaoqiang?
Xiaoqiang frowned and sighed: "That's the case, my mother called today, and she was urging you to transfer the house under your name to my cousin." ”
I was shocked, this thing happened again. My mother-in-law has been urging me to transfer the house under my name to my husband's cousin since I gave birth to Xiaofang, and she said that it is a family tradition, and a boy can only be considered a real home when he has a house. I kept dragging my feet and felt it was too unfair to do so. After all, Xiaoqiang and I have both worked hard to earn it, so why give everything to others?
I sighed, "Why is this happening again?" I think we should leave what we have worked so hard to earn for our own daughters. ”
Xiaoqiang smiled bitterly and nodded: "I think so too, but my mother's attitude seems to be more resolute this time." She said that if we didn't agree, we would break off the mother-child relationship. ”
I felt a chill in my heart when I heard it, and such a threat made me feel extremely desperate. I know that my mother-in-law has always been very strong, and there is an uncle-in-law at home who is very obedient to her. If they do decide to turn against us, there may not be anything we can do to resist.
Just as Xiaoqiang and I were in deep thought, Xiaofang suddenly ran over, took my hand and said, "Mom, Xiaohong and I are going to go to the park in the afternoon, can you take us?"
I looked at her innocent smile and felt a warm current in my heart. Perhaps, these disputes and disputes in front of us are really not worth our attention. Family harmony and children's happiness are the most important things.
I smiled and patted her head, "Of course you can, dear." Let's go together, Mommy will take you to play. ”
Watching Xiaofang and Xiaohong happily run out, the doubts and worries in my heart gradually faded. Perhaps, this crisis is not so difficult to solve. The relationship between me and Xiaoqiang, as well as our family, will not be easily shaken by such a thing.
I discussed it with Xiaoqiang and decided to have a good talk with my mother-in-law this weekend. After all, family harmony is more important than anything else. On Saturday afternoon, we took our children to my mother-in-law's house.
When my mother-in-law saw us coming, she had an unexpected look of surprise on her face. She immediately beckoned us to sit down and brought out tea and snacks.
"Xiaoli, Xiaoqiang, why did you come so suddenly today?" asked the mother-in-law with concern.
I smiled and said, "Mom, there are some things we think we need to discuss with you. ”
Xiaoqiang also continued: "Yes, Mom, we know that you have always wanted us to transfer the house to your cousin, and we also want to talk to you about this matter. ”
When my mother-in-law heard this, the smile on her face gradually froze, and she looked at us with a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
"What do you want to talk to me about, are you still hesitating?" said the mother-in-law's tone a little stiff.
I quickly explained, "Mom, we are not hesitant, we just feel that this issue needs to be communicated well. We really want you to understand what we think. ”
Xiaoqiang also added: "Yes, Mom, we know that you value family traditions, but we hope you can understand our position. ”
When the mother-in-law heard this, the expression on her face gradually became serious, she was silent for a moment, and then she spoke: "Whatever you want, just say it." ”
Xiaoqiang and I exchanged a look, and then I began to say, "Mom, we understand your worries, but this house is a house that our husband and wife have worked hard to build. We want to be able to leave it to our daughters as a support for their future. ”
Xiaoqiang continued: "Moreover, my cousin's family is actually quite wealthy, and they don't need our help. We feel that family traditions are important, but family harmony is even more important. ”
When the mother-in-law heard this, the expression on her face was a little complicated, she was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "I understand what you said, but you must understand that family traditions cannot be easily changed. ”
I quickly said, "Mom, we're not trying to completely change the family tradition, we just want to make some adjustments so that everyone can be happy." ”
Xiaoqiang also hurriedly answered: "Yes, Mom, we don't want to fight against you, we just hope you can understand our hardships." ”
When the mother-in-law heard this, the expression on her face softened a little, she sighed and said, "Okay, since you are so insistent, I can't force you anymore." ”
Xiaoqiang and I listened to it, and we were relieved, we knew that this conversation was not easy, but we finally got my mother-in-law's understanding. This makes us feel that family harmony is the most important thing.
My mother-in-law's attitude was indeed unexpected, and Xiaoqiang and I both felt a little surprised and relieved. We know that although this matter has been resolved, the family conflict still needs to be mediated slowly and not hastily.
In the days that followed, Xiaoqiang and I worked hard to bring the atmosphere back to calm at home. We try to spend as much time as possible with our children every day, so that they can feel the warmth and harmony of family.
However, just when we thought everything was going to settle down, something suddenly happened that caught us off guard.
One night, when Xiaoqiang returned home, his face was solemn and pale. Seeing this, I hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, Xiaoqiang, what's going on?"
Xiaoqiang held back for a long time, and finally said the news that shocked me: "My mother filed for divorce with me today." ”
I was shocked and couldn't believe it: "Divorce? why?"
Xiaoqiang smiled bitterly and said, "She said that it was because we didn't listen to her and were not filial, so we wanted to mention divorce." ”
I listened to a sadness in my heart, and this result was really unexpected. Xiaoqiang and I always thought that the relationship between us was indestructible, but I didn't expect my mother-in-law to mention divorce because of such a thing.
I hurriedly comforted: "Don't be sad, Xiaoqiang, maybe it's just her impulse." Let's talk about it, and maybe we can save it. ”
Xiao Qiang shook his head and sighed: "I feel that she is serious this time, and she said it very resolutely." Moreover, she also put forward some conditions, asking us to transfer the house to my cousin, otherwise she would really have to divorce. ”
My heart sank when I heard this, and this matter seemed to be much more serious than we thought. My mother-in-law's attitude was so resolute that I felt extremely helpless and confused.
"So what are we going to do?" I asked, my heart filled with anxiety and unease.
Xiaoqiang frowned and said, "I don't know, I think we can only think about how to deal with it now." This matter cannot be delayed, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
Xiaoqiang and I fell into deep thought, and we knew that in the face of such a situation, we could not be helpless, and we had to come up with a proper solution. Otherwise, our families will face an even greater crisis.
Faced with the sudden divorce crisis, Xiaoqiang and I fell into heavy thinking. We understand that this is not just a family crisis, but also a test of our feelings.
After some discussion, we decided to talk to my mother-in-law first, try to defuse her anger and find a proper solution.
So, one weekend afternoon, Xiaoqiang and I came to my mother-in-law's house again. When my mother-in-law saw us coming, she had a cold expression on her face, but she still warmly beckoned us to sit down.
I said, "Mom, we're here to talk to you. ”
Xiaoqiang continued: "Yes, Mom, we know you're angry, but we really don't want to get into trouble with you. ”
The expression on her face softened a little, and she nodded and motioned for us to continue.
I said, "Mom, we know you value your family traditions, but we hope you understand what we're struggling with. This house is a hard-earned house for our husband and wife, and we hope to be able to leave it to our daughter as a future support. ”
Xiaoqiang also hurriedly answered: "Yes, Mom, we are not ignorant, and we also want to be filial to you." But we feel that family harmony is more important than anything else. ”
The mother-in-law listened, was silent for a moment, and then said slowly: "I know your hardships, but you must understand that family traditions cannot be easily changed. ”
I hurriedly said, "Mom, we're not trying to completely change the family tradition, we just want to make some adjustments so that everyone can be happy." ”
Xiaoqiang also added: "Yes, Mom, we don't mean to work against you, we just hope you can understand us." ”
When the mother-in-law heard this, the expression on her face was a little complicated, she was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Okay, I promise you, I won't force you anymore." ”
Xiaoqiang and I listened to it, and we were relieved, we knew that this conversation was not easy, but we finally got my mother-in-law's understanding. This makes us feel that family harmony is the most important thing.
After some difficult conversations, Xiaoqiang and I finally reached a compromise with my mother-in-law, and the family atmosphere gradually eased. However, I know that this is not the end of the problem, and we still need to face the resentment and pressure that my mother-in-law has on us.
Back at home, Xiaoqiang and I continued to discuss our next plans. We know that in order to keep the family in harmony, we need to make some compromises and changes. And the most important thing is to strengthen communication and understanding with your mother-in-law.
"What should we do to make Mom understand us better?" I asked, filled with confusion and anxiety.
Xiaoqiang pondered for a moment, and then said, "Maybe we can spend more time with my mother and let her feel our sincerity and love." ”
I nodded, "yes, I think that's a good idea." We can often visit our mother, help her with household chores, and chat with her. ”
Xiao Qiang smiled: "Moreover, we can also listen to her opinions more and try to consider her feelings." ”
I laughed too: "Yes, I think as long as we treat my mother with sincerity, she will also feel our sincerity." ”
So, from that day on, Xiaoqiang and I started a new way of life. We would visit my mother-in-law every weekend to chat with her and help her with some household chores. Sometimes, we would go out for a walk together and enjoy a sunny afternoon.
Thanks to our efforts, my mother-in-law's attitude gradually improved. She began to be more willing to communicate with us and understand our position better. The atmosphere of the family has also become more and more harmonious, which makes us feel extremely relieved and happy.
After a series of twists and tribulations, we finally understood a truth: family harmony is based on mutual understanding and support. Only when we are willing to listen to each other sincerely and tolerate each other can we have a truly happy family.
Now, when I think back on that difficult time, my heart is filled with gratitude and emotion. It is precisely because of those setbacks and trials that we cherish and understand each other more and have a stronger and better family.
