My name is Li Xiaoyu, an ordinary housewife, who is busy taking care of the family's affairs on weekdays, and tries her best to run the family in an orderly manner. I don't have a very good relationship with my mother-in-law, she is a traditional old-fashioned mother-in-law who is always picky and dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law. And I also strive to be a good daughter-in-law, silently taking on the responsibilities of the family.
One day, I received a call from my mother-in-law, and her voice was full of excitement: "Xiaoyu, I have to hold a banquet at home for my birthday this time, you have to help me prepare." I've got more than 20 guests, and you've got to cook 30 dishes. ”
When I heard the news, I panicked. Thirty dishes, how much time and energy does it take! And there are more than 20 customers, there are so many people, how can I manage so many dishes by myself? But thinking that it is my mother-in-law's birthday, I can only agree to it.
I was very busy preparing for this feast. From morning till night, I was busy in the kitchen, busy picking out recipes, buying ingredients, processing ingredients, cooking dishes...... The whole person was about to be overwhelmed by this birthday party.
While I was busy, the atmosphere at home was getting weirder and weirder. The mother-in-law became extremely excited, and was busy decorating the house every day, as if this feast was more important to her than anything else. And my husband, who is my mother-in-law's son, is less and less present at home, busy outside all day, hardly asking about things at home.
At the same time, I noticed that the surveillance cameras in my home were frequently abnormal. Sometimes it suddenly fails, and sometimes it shows some strange images. But I didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was just that the camera was aging and needed to be repaired.
However, one night, when I was about to stay up all night to get busy, I suddenly heard a cacophony from downstairs. I hurried downstairs to take a look, and I saw a group of people standing in front of the house, including my husband.
"Mom, how can you do this? let Xiaoyu work so much by herself, how can you be so selfish!" I heard my husband yelling at my mother-in-law.
"Can you manage it? How I want to spend my own birthday is my business, why should you care!" The mother-in-law was also visibly enraged, her voice full of anger and dissatisfaction.
"Can't you think about Xiaoyu, how could she cook so many dishes by herself, you're torturing her!" my husband's tone was firm and unyielding.
"You...... You unfilial son!" the mother-in-law trembled with anger, and tears welled up in her eyes.
I stood upstairs listening to their arguments, mixed feelings. I didn't expect things to turn out like this, and I didn't expect my husband to stand out for me. What should I do?
Hearing my husband's scolding, I was moved in my heart, but I also felt heartache. He stood up for me and protected me, but it also meant that the conflict between him and his mother intensified.
"Son, how can you do this to me? I'm just here for my birthday, can't I be a little happier?" the mother-in-law cried even harder, as if she had been hurt like never before.
"Mom, you should be happy, but not at the cost of hurting others. You're so unfair to Xiaoyu. There was a hint of grief in my husband's voice.
"Are you rebelling, tearing your face at my own doorstep?" the mother-in-law's words revealed a kind of helplessness and anger.
"Mom, we're not trying to be your enemy, we just want you to understand our situation. "My husband tried to calm my mother-in-law's emotions.
"I don't need to understand, I just need you to respect me!" the mother-in-law's voice became sharper and sharper, and she seemed to be unable to control her emotions.
I stood upstairs, hesitant. I know my husband is doing it for my good, but I also don't want to have more conflicts with my mother-in-law. What should I do? What can I do to stop this quarrel?
Just as I was hesitating, my husband suddenly turned around and walked to the surveillance camera in front of the house. I couldn't help but look down curiously, only to see that he took out a piece of his mobile phone, which seemed to be doing something.
"Mom, you know what? I've been watching the surveillance at home. My husband spoke suddenly, and there was a kind of indifference and determination in his voice.
"Are you spying on me?" the mother-in-law was startled when she heard my husband's words, and her eyes were full of horror and uneasiness.
"Yes, I'm spying on you. I saw your attitude towards Xiaoyu, and I saw how you treated our family's life. I can't let you hurt her like that anymore. My husband's tone was cold and firm, as if he had made up his mind.
When my mother-in-law heard my husband's words, a flash of fear flashed in her eyes, but then it was replaced by anger. "You unfilial son, you are secretly spying on me!" her voice was full of anger and dissatisfaction, "I'm leaving, I'll never come back!" After saying that, she walked straight out, without the slightest intention of turning back.
I looked at the back of my mother-in-law leaving, and a mixed emotion welled up in my heart. It all happened so suddenly, and before I could react, my mother-in-law had already left. I don't know what's going to happen next, I just know that I need to think hard about my relationship with my husband and my responsibilities to the family.
So, I silently walked back to the house and began to sort out the remaining dishes, and I was overwhelmed by all kinds of thoughts.
The next morning, I woke up with a heavy heart. I was very tired from what happened last night, but I knew I couldn't sit back and I had to face the reality and solve the problems in my family.
When I went downstairs, I found that peace had returned to my home. The husband sat in the living room, seemingly thinking about something. Seeing me come down, he turned his head and showed a reluctant smile: "Good morning, Xiaoyu." ”
I nodded lightly and didn't speak. At this moment, I felt an inexplicable tension in my heart, and I didn't know how to face my husband and our relationship next.
"What happened last night wasn't easy for you either, and I know you're tired. My husband seemed to sense my emotions and whispered.
I didn't answer, just sat quietly beside him, my heart full of contradictions and confusion. I don't know what I'm going to do, I don't know where my relationship with my husband is going.
"Xiaoyu, I want to have a good talk with you. The husband spoke suddenly, his voice full of seriousness and sincerity.
I looked up into his eyes, filled with anticipation and unease. I don't know what he wants to talk to me, but I know that this conversation could determine our future.
"I know there were a lot of problems going on between us and last night's argument made our relationship even more strained. The husband's tone was frank and sincere, "But I hope we can face the problem honestly and find a solution." ”
I nodded, motioning for him to continue. At this moment, I am also full of anticipation, hoping that he can give me some answers.
"I know I don't care enough about you, I'm always too busy with work to notice how you feel. There was a hint of apology in her husband's voice, "But I want you to believe that I truly love you." ”
When I heard his words, my heart was moved. Perhaps, it is not that there is no solution between us, and maybe we still have a chance to repair our relationship.
"I also know that I am not kind to your mother, and I can't help but have conflicts with her. The husband sighed, "But she always treats you badly, and I can't stand it." ”
When I heard his words, my heart was sad. Perhaps, the problems between us are not unsolvable, and maybe we have a chance to start over.
"I hope we can work together and fight for our future. My husband reached out and gently shook my hand, "Would you like to go down with me?"
I looked into his eyes and my heart was filled with gratitude and hope. Perhaps, the problems between us are not unsolvable, and maybe we have a chance to start over.
"I do. I said softly, my voice full of determination and determination.
My husband and I shook hands, and our feelings were released, and I knew that our relationship would become stronger and stronger.
"Thank you, Xiaoyu. The husband showed a sincere smile, "I will cherish our relationship and try to make our family happier." ”
I smiled too, filled with gratitude and anticipation. "Thank you, I believe we will be able to create a better future. ”
At this moment, suddenly, there was a knock on the door. My husband and I were stunned for a moment, not knowing who would be visiting.
When I opened the door, I saw my mother-in-law standing in the doorway, her eyes full of worry and uneasiness.
"Mom, you...... "I was a little surprised, I didn't expect her to show up at this time.
The mother-in-law didn't speak, just stood there silently, her eyes full of contradiction and anxiety. I could feel her struggling inside, not knowing how to speak.
"Mom, come in and sit down for a while. I tried to lighten the mood and motioned for her to come in.
The mother-in-law walked into the house, sat on the sofa, and was silent for a while before she spoke, "I...... I was in too much of a hurry last night, and I haven't made some things clear to you yet. ”
My husband and I looked at each other, and a trace of doubt welled up in my heart. When my mother-in-law came to us out of the blue, she must have something important to tell us.
"I know I'm not good to you, I'm always critical of you, always looking for fault with you. The mother-in-law's voice was a little choked, "But I hope you can forgive me, I really love you." ”
When my husband and I heard my mother-in-law's words, a mixed emotion welled up in our hearts. Perhaps, she also has her difficulties, and perhaps the contradictions between us are not irresolvable.
"Mom, we actually understand you. I tried to comfort my mother-in-law, "We know you're doing it for our good, but sometimes it's not the right way to put it." ”
The husband also nodded in agreement: "Yes, Mom, we don't blame you, we just hope you can understand our situation." ”
When my mother-in-law heard our words, tears welled up in her eyes, and she seemed to release the burden in her heart, and her face showed a hint of relief and relief.
"Thank you, thank you for being able to forgive me. The mother-in-law wiped away her tears and showed a happy smile, "I will treat you well in the future, and I will try to make our family happier." ”
My husband and I also smiled, our hearts filled with gratitude and joy. Perhaps, the contradictions between us are not unsolvable, and perhaps we still have the opportunity to start over.
The arrival of the mother-in-law made the atmosphere at home relaxed and pleasant. The three of us sat around the living room, chatting about family things as if last night's quarrel had never happened.
"Mom, I want to prepare a good lunch for you, which is my apology to you. I smiled and said to my mother-in-law.
Mother-in-law waved her hand again and again: "No need, Xiaoyu, you have worked hard enough, I am here to apologize to you today, don't worry about me anymore." ”
My heart is warm, and I am glad that my mother-in-law's transformation has made me feel gratified. The husband also quickly chimed in: "Mom, it is our blessing that you come here, and we all hope that you can stay here for a little longer." ”
When the mother-in-law heard this, a trace of emotion flashed in her eyes, and she nodded lightly: "Okay, then I'll stay here for a few more days." ”
So, the three of us sat around and chatted about family life, laughing constantly. I am grateful and I know that although there will always be some conflicts and frictions between families, as long as we understand and tolerate each other, our family will definitely become happier and more fulfilling.
Since that day, my husband and I have cherished each other's feelings even more, and we have worked together to create a better future for our family. And my mother-in-law has become more amiable, she has tried to adjust her attitude and try not to find fault with me anymore, and our relationship has become more harmonious.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the annual mother-in-law's birthday. This time, our family decided to prepare a grand birthday party for her together to send her our sincerest wishes.
On this special day, we were all together as a family and had a great time. I watched my mother-in-law smile from ear to ear, and my heart was filled with happiness. Perhaps, the conflicts between families are not terrible, as long as we understand each other and tolerate each other, our family will definitely be full of warmth and happiness.
