I'm Li Juan, a housewife living in a small city with a husband who has a successful career. Recently, we moved into a new house, which made me excited and a little nervous. My husband's mother, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law temporarily moved in with us due to family problems. Although this was temporary, this new living arrangement presented me with challenges. I have always tried to maintain harmony, despite the growing distance and tension between me and my aunt and brother-in-law.
On my first Sunday morning after marriage, I woke up and realized that it was no longer my exclusive morning. I went to the kitchen first, ready to make breakfast, but found that the ingredients in the refrigerator were a little messy, probably because my mother and brother-in-law stayed up late to play cards and eat supper last night, and they didn't clean up. I smiled bitterly in my heart, this new way of life made me have to learn to adapt.
"Li Juan, the braised pork you made yesterday is so delicious!" said my mother-in-law, her voice gentle but full of maternal care.
"Thank you, Mom. I replied with a smile, trying to hide my inner turmoil.
"By the way, sister, have you ever thought about having a child recently? You and Xiaobai (my husband) have been married for a few years, and the time is not small. The sister-in-law asked as she sat at the dining table and ate her breakfast.
This topic was like a sharp knife that pierced my inner peace. I know that in this family, Xiaobai's child and I are something that has been awaited for a long time. However, I have never been able to get pregnant, which has become a hidden pain in my heart.
"Sister, you really have to think about it, after all, it's really too late to miss this age. The little uncle also interjected.
I felt irritated and my words made me feel extremely stressed. In the traditional Chinese family, it is regarded as a responsibility and an honor to have offspring, and I have not been able to fulfill this basic mission, which is something I have never been able to let go of. But I also knew that it wasn't all my fault, and the doctor said I had a fertility disorder, which made me even more self-guilty and depressed.
"Mom, my sister is actually conditioning her body, and the doctor also said to be patient. Xiaobai saw that there was something wrong with my expression, and he helped me out.
"Yes, Mom, don't keep talking about this, Xiaobai and I have plans. I also hastened to add.
My mother-in-law glanced at me and didn't speak, but her eyes revealed a kind of expectation and pressure.
After breakfast, Xiaobai and I went to the market to buy some household items. On the way, we talked about family.
"Juan, how have you been getting along with your mother and Xiaobai lately?" asked Xiaobai with concern.
"It's okay, it's just a little stressful. I said with a wry smile.
"What did they say, did they have anything unpleasant?" Xiaobai's tone revealed concern.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that they've been pushing me to have a baby. I whispered, not wanting Xiaobai to worry too much.
Xiaobai was silent for a moment, he knew that this was a sensitive topic for me. He squeezed my hand, "Don't pay too much attention to what they say, we'll take care of it." ”
I nodded, secretly determined in my heart that no matter how much pressure from the outside world was, I would stick to my bottom line and beliefs.
When I got home, I saw my brother sitting in the living room reading a book. My brother is three years younger than me, a smart and somewhat homely boy, and we have always had a good relationship.
"Sister, how are you back, what did you buy?" When my brother saw me coming in, he immediately put down his book and greeted me warmly.
"Nothing special, just bought some groceries. I laughed.
"Sister, I want to tell you something. The younger brother said mysteriously.
"What's the matter?" I was a little curious.
"I've recently wanted to change places and rent a house for myself. The younger brother looked serious.
When I heard this, I was a little surprised, "Why? Isn't it good here?"
"It's not bad, it's just that I want a little bit of my own space and be more independent. The younger brother explained.
I was silent for a moment, a little surprised by this sudden offer. I know that my younger brother works outside the home and his income is still repaid
My younger brother works outside the home and his income is okay, but this sudden proposal still surprised me.
"Brother, why do you suddenly want to rent your own house?" I asked.
"Sister, you know that I have been working for a few years and have some savings, so I think I should be more independent. The younger brother explained.
I was a little reluctant in my heart, but I also understood my brother's thoughts. Independence is a stage that every young person goes through, and I can't let my feelings hold my brother back.
"Well, if you really want to, I'll support you. I tried to make my tone sound light.
When my brother saw that I agreed, his face showed a hint of relief, "Thank you, sister, I will take care of it." ”
In the evening, we sat in the living room as a family and chatted. The little uncle took out a bottle of wine, "Let's have a drink together today." ”
The mother-in-law smiled and said, "Okay, today is a day worth celebrating. ”
As I watched my family sit together, I felt a little complicated. The changes in my family made me feel stressed and uneasy, but I also understood that it was a part of life and I had to learn to face and adapt.
"Juan, how are you doing? are you okay with Xiaobai?" asked the mother-in-law with concern.
"It's okay, it's just that I've been a little busy lately. I replied with a smile.
"Do you have any plans? My mother-in-law has been looking forward to holding her grandson as soon as possible. The sister-in-law interjected.
This topic was brought up again, which made me a little helpless. "Mom, aunt, we'll take care of our affairs ourselves. ”
My mother-in-law looked at me and didn't speak, but I could feel the anticipation and worry in her heart.
"By the way, brother, have you been looking at the house lately?" asked the younger brother.
"yes, I'm going to move out. The younger brother said calmly.
"And what about your room here?" the little uncle was a little curious.
The younger brother smiled, "I have already discussed with my sister, I will move out by myself, she doesn't have to worry." ”
Hearing this, the mother-in-law and sister-in-law were a little surprised. After all, such arrangements are not common in traditional families.
"Are you all right? There's still a room available. The mother-in-law asked worriedly.
"It's okay, I'll find a place for myself. The younger brother said with a smile.
I looked at my brother and was a little moved. Although he is younger than me, he has a mature and independent side, which makes me proud and reassured of him.
In the evenings, I was alone in my study sorting out the family accounts. Suddenly, the phone rang and it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hey, hello, I'm a doctor from XX Hospital, are you Li Juan?" a male voice came from the other end of the phone.
"It's me, what's the matter?" I was a little surprised.
"Hello, we found that some of the results of some of your previous tests are abnormal, and we recommend that you come to the hospital for a follow-up as soon as possible. The doctor explained.
When I heard the news, I panicked. I've had some physical check-ups before, but I didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was just a routine check-up.
"Okay, I'll schedule a time to go to the hospital as soon as possible. "I try to keep my voice as calm as possible.
When I hung up, I was in turmoil. This unexpected news made me panic and uneasy. I tried to calm myself down and think about what to do next.
The next morning, I went to the hospital for a follow-up. The doctor told me that I did have some medical problems that needed to be treated and recuperated.
When I got home, I didn't tell anyone the news, but silently began to adjust my lifestyle to be more health-conscious and well-being.
During this time, the younger brother found a suitable house and was ready to move out. He came to talk to me once and expressed his gratitude and apologies to me.
"Sister, thank you for your continued support to me, I will take good care of myself. The younger brother said.
"You are my brother, of course I will support you. I smiled and said, "Remember to come and see us often." ”
My brother nodded, looking at me with gratitude and reluctance in his eyes.
The atmosphere at home slowly became calmer. After my brother moved out, my life with Xiaobai gradually returned to peace. I started to concentrate on my physical problems and try not to worry my family.
During this time, I learned to be stronger and more independent,
Over time, I have gained a deeper appreciation and understanding of life. I started to pay more attention to physical health and mental conditioning, and I did some exercise and relaxation activities every day. Xiaobai is also very supportive of me, often accompanying me to the gym or walking, which makes our relationship more harmonious.
One day, I received a special letter from my ex-husband's father. The letter reads: "I have heard that you have been feeling unwell lately, and I am writing to inquire about your condition. I hope you're doing well. ”
When I saw this letter, I was filled with emotion. Although my ex-husband and I have long since separated, his family still cares about me, and I feel touched and grateful for this warmth.
I sent a letter back to my ex-husband's father, telling him about my recent situation and also expressing my gratitude and blessings. This kind of communication makes me feel that the family bond is so strong and warm.
In the family, the relationship between the mother-in-law and the sister-in-law has also been slowly eased. Xiaobai's life and I are gradually on the right track, although the pressure of childbirth still exists, we have learned to face it more calmly and rationally.
One night, Xiaobai and I were chatting in the living room. Suddenly, Xiaobai said: "Juan, in fact, I have always had an idea. ”
"What thoughts?" I asked curiously.
"I want to adopt a child. Xiaobai said what was in his heart.
I was a little surprised to hear this. "Adopt a child, why did you think of this?"
"I don't think we necessarily have to have a child of our own, and adoption is a great option. Moreover, it is also possible to give a homeless child a home. Xiaobai explained.
I was silent for a moment, the idea did surprise me, but at the same time I thought it was a beautiful idea. "Are you sure? It's a big decision. ”
"I've been thinking about it for a long time and I feel like we can bring happiness to a child. Xiaobai said firmly.
I looked at Xiaobai, and my heart was full of emotion and gratitude. "Okay, we can go and learn about the adoption process, and if all goes well, we can try. ”
Xiaobai smiled when he heard my reply. "Thank you, Juan. ”
This decision has brought us closer together and made me feel that our family can be more complete and happy because of it.
Over time, we successfully completed the adoption process and welcomed a lovely child. His arrival has brought infinite joy and happiness to our lives, and also made our family more fulfilling and warm.
During this time, various experiences in my family have taught me to be stronger and more rational in facing the challenges and difficulties in life. The support and love of my family is the driving force for me to move forward, and I believe that as long as we have love and understanding, family is the warmest harbor.
My life with Xiaobai has become more colorful because of the arrival of our children. Children's laughter and mischievous mischief fill our family with energy and joy. I learned the responsibility and joy of being a mother, and I was full of love and care for my children every day.
One day, I took my kids for a walk in the park. The children were running and playing on the grass, and I sat on the bench enjoying the sun. Suddenly, an old man sat down next to me and looked at the child with a smile.
"Your kids are so cute. The old man said.
"Thank you, he was adopted by us. I replied with a smile.
"Adopt, you're a good person. The old man's eyes revealed a kind of appreciation and emotion.
We started talking about family and life. The old man told me that he had two sons, both of whom were working in other places, and that they rarely came back to see him. After his wife died, he was the only one left in the family.
"Children, the most important thing in a family is reunion and harmony. The old man said with emotion.
I nodded, "Yes, family is our warmest harbor." ”
Talking to the old man made me cherish my happiness even more. I decided to spend more time with my family and make our family more harmonious and happy.
When I got home, I shared a conversation with the old man with Xiaobai. Xiaobai also agreed, and we decided to arrange more family activities to enhance the emotional connection between family members.
"Where are we going this weekend?" asked Xiaobai with great interest.
"We can go to the countryside and get a feel for the rural life. I suggested.
"Okay, I'll see if there's a suitable homestay. Xiaobai began to look up information on the Internet.
This weekend, our family came to a country house. The environment is tranquil and pleasant, relaxing and pleasant. The children were chasing butterflies in the meadow, and Xiaobai and I were strolling along the field paths, enjoying the peace and good time.
In the evening, we ordered some local specialties at the B&B. The table was filled with sumptuous dishes, and we sat around as a family, enjoying the food and laughing.
"Juan, we are living happily now. Xiaobai looked at me, his eyes full of satisfaction and emotion.
I smiled and nodded, "Yes, we are blessed and have a complete family. ”
The child was eating next to him, and suddenly he said, "Mom and Dad, I love you." ”
When we both heard the child's words, our hearts were filled with happiness and emotion. "We love you too, baby. We said at the same time.
This weekend trip made us feel the warmth and importance of family even more. No matter how the outside world changes, our family is always our strongest backing and support.
Come to an end.
That weekend trip made us feel the warmth and importance of family even more. No matter how the outside world changes, our family is always our strongest backing and support.
After returning home, we went on to live a full and happy life. My child is doing well in school, and my work is going well. The atmosphere at home has become more harmonious, and my mother-in-law and sister-in-law have gradually accepted the lifestyle of Xiaobai and me, and the relationship between them has become more harmonious.
One day, my sister-in-law suddenly came to talk to me. "Juan, I want to talk to you about something. ”
"What's the matter?" I asked curiously.
"I've had some problems with my brother-in-law lately. The sister-in-law said with some hesitation.
"Is there a problem?" I asked with concern.
"There was some misunderstanding between us, which led to tensions in the relationship. The sister-in-law frankly expressed her troubles.
I was silent for a moment, the question is indeed somewhat complicated. "Do you have any specific questions between you? Can you tell me about it. ”
The sister-in-law began to describe the conflict between her and the brother-in-law, mainly due to the friction caused by some differences in living habits and concepts. "I hope we can reconcile, but it's a bit difficult right now. ”
After listening to my sister-in-law's story, I understood something in my heart. Relationship problems in the family are common, but they require a certain amount of patience and wisdom to solve.
"In fact, there will inevitably be some conflicts and differences in the family, and it is important that we can communicate openly and find solutions. "I tried to enlighten my sister-in-law.
"Yes, I also want to have a good talk with my brother-in-law to solve the problem between us. The sister-in-law expressed her attitude.
"You can communicate openly and honestly, and you can trust that the problem will be solved. I encouraged.
My sister-in-law listened to my words and showed a hint of relief and hope. "Thank you, Juan, I'll do my best. ”
The conversation between us made the family atmosphere more harmonious and harmonious. I want everyone in my family to be able to live happily and happily and create a better future together.
