My name is Wang Xiaoming, I am 32 years old this year, and I am an ordinary white-collar worker. My wife Xiaowen and I have been married for six years and we live an ordinary and happy life. However, our lives were shattered by an unexpected contradiction on a cold winter day.
That day, I had just come home from work and was about to enjoy the warmth of family, when I was startled by the roar coming from outside the door. I rushed to the door, only to see my wife, Xiaowen, standing angrily in front of the door, complaining loudly to an old woman standing proudly outside the door with a distorted face.
"How can you do this!" Xiaowen's voice was full of anger and grievance, "You've been here three times, and each time you look vicious!" We're doing well, there's no need for you to make trouble all the time! ”
The old woman sneered disdainfully: "How are you doing? You're embarrassed to say it! You, a mother-in-law, eat and drink every day when you get married, and your son is blind to marry you like this! ”
I was displeased, this old lady was my mother-in-law. She is in her seventies, but she still maintains a mean and self-righteous attitude. I didn't like her style, but in order to avoid conflicts, I tried to keep my distance from her.
"Mom, don't say that again." I stepped forward and tried to persuade, "We didn't mean to treat you badly, it's just that there are some things that we may not handle well enough, and I hope you can understand." ”
My mother-in-law looked at me coldly, and the corners of her mouth provoked a touch of disdain: "You? What qualifications do you have to talk to me! A son who is not even filial to his own mother is embarrassed to come out and preach to me! ”
My heart was shocked, my mother had always been reluctant to accept Xiaowen because of my marriage to Xiaowen, but I didn't expect her to speak so badly of me.
Xiaowen saw that my face was ugly, so she hurriedly pulled me: "Don't be like her, this kind of person, let her go." ”
When my mother-in-law saw that I didn't answer, a smug look flashed in her eyes, and then she turned away proudly. I felt a pang of anger and helplessness in my heart, and I couldn't understand why my mother would be so mean to me, and I couldn't accept my mother-in-law's accusations against our family.
"Xiao Ming, don't be angry, she's just that kind of person, let's not worry about her." Xiaowen comforted me softly.
I shook my head and sighed, "Maybe, but I've really run out of her attitude." ”
As time went on, the mother-in-law's visits became more and more frequent, each time bringing tension and uneasiness to the family. Sometimes she would come uninvited, talk about family rules and family precepts, and accuse us of not being filial enough to her; Sometimes she will bring some so-called "good intentions" and bring us unnecessary troubles and troubles.
One night, I was about to watch TV with Xiaowen when suddenly the phone rang. I picked up the phone, but I heard my mother-in-law's anxious voice: "Xiao Ming, come to me!" I fell and my leg hurt terribly. ”
My heart tightened, and I hurriedly said goodbye to Xiaowen and immediately drove to my mother-in-law's residence. When I arrived, I saw my mother-in-law curled up on the ground, her face pale and her eyes full of pain. Xiaowen and I hurriedly helped her up and asked about her injuries.
"I broke this leg, and it hurt so much." The mother-in-law's lips trembled, and there was a bit of pleading in her voice, "You take me to the hospital quickly." ”
I hesitated, but finally decided to take my mother-in-law to the hospital. In the hospital, the doctor gave my mother-in-law a detailed examination and diagnosed a fracture of the patella, which required surgery.
The operation went smoothly and the mother-in-law was placed in the hospital for observation. Xiaowen and I visit her in the hospital every day to take care of her daily life. Although my attitude towards her has not changed, I still hope that she can recover soon.
However, just when we thought everything was going to get better, my mother-in-law had an accident in the hospital room.
"Xiao Ming, Xiao Wen, come and take a look!" The nurse at the hospital hurried to us, "Your mother-in-law has had an accident. ”
We hurriedly followed the nurse to my mother-in-law's ward, only to see her lying on the bed with a pale face, and drops of cold sweat oozed from her forehead. The nurse was busy giving her first aid, while Xiaowen and I stood anxiously on the sidelines.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Xiaowen's eyes were full of worry.
The mother-in-law said weakly: "I don't know, I suddenly felt that it was difficult to breathe, and my heart seemed to be beating." ”
Our hearts instantly rose to our throats and eyes, and we hurriedly asked the doctor for emergency treatment. With the full efforts of doctors and nurses, my mother-in-law's condition gradually stabilized. Xiaowen and I breathed a sigh of relief, but the uneasiness in our hearts grew stronger.
Back at home, Xiaowen and I sat on the couch and fell silent. This accident made us more aware that my mother-in-law is not young and needs more care and attention. Although her attitude is still difficult for us to accept, after all, she is our family and we cannot ignore it.
"Xiao Ming, what should we do?" Xiaowen's voice revealed a hint of helplessness, "Mother-in-law needs our care now, but she always causes us trouble. ”
I pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly: "We can't give up taking care of her because of her attitude. She is, after all, my mom's mom and our family. Perhaps, we can try to communicate with her and see if we can improve our relationship. ”
Xiaowen nodded: "Well, maybe we can spend more time with her and listen to her more, maybe she will change slowly." ”
Xiaowen and I looked at each other and smiled, although the road ahead is still full of challenges, we are willing to work hard for the harmony of the family.
After this accident, Xiaowen and I decided to work harder to take care of our mother-in-law, hoping to improve our relationship. Every day, we would visit her in the hospital, chat with her, and bring her something she liked to eat. Gradually, my mother-in-law's attitude towards us also softened and began to communicate with us about some trivial matters.
"Xiao Ming, Xiao Wen, you guys are so good." The mother-in-law sat on the hospital bed, her eyes shining with gratitude, "I used to have a bad attitude towards you, and it was because I was too worried about you. ”
Xiaowen and I glanced at each other, and I couldn't help but feel a trace of warmth in my heart. Perhaps, this accident became a turning point between us, making us cherish our relationship even more.
As time passed, the mother-in-law's condition gradually improved, and the doctor announced that she could be discharged from the hospital. Xiaowen and I immediately decided to take her home to take care of her, which is also a kind of respect and care for her.
When my mother-in-law returned home, we tried our best to meet her living needs, arranged a comfortable room for her, and prepared nutritious meals for her every day. Although my mother-in-law still loses her temper sometimes, we have learned how to cope with it and try to make her feel at home.
"Xiaowen, Xiaoming, you guys are so good." The mother-in-law sat at the table, looking at the meal we had prepared with our hearts, and her eyes showed gratitude, "I was too much before, I'm sorry for you." ”
Xiaowen and I looked at each other and smiled, our hearts full of satisfaction and emotion. Perhaps, family harmony is not achieved overnight, and we need to manage and maintain it with our hearts. Now we can finally sit together and enjoy the warmth of family together, and it is all worth it.
As time went on, my life with Xiaowen gradually got back on track. My mother-in-law's attitude has become much gentler, and our relationship has gradually become more harmonious.
"Xiaowen, Xiaoming, don't be too tired, I'll help you do some housework." The mother-in-law's voice came, and she took the rag and prepared to clean the room with an energetic face.
Xiaowen and I looked at each other and smiled, and our hearts were full of emotion. From the quarrels and conflicts in the past, to taking care of and tolerating each other today, our family has gone through too many twists and turns and challenges, but in the end we have all become more mature and stronger.
"Mother-in-law, sit down and rest, we can take our time with these things." I smiled and persuaded.
The mother-in-law smiled a little embarrassedly: "Okay, then I'll sit down and watch TV." ”
Our family sat around the living room, watching TV and feeling the warmth of family. At this moment, I felt filled with satisfaction and happiness in my heart. Home is not only the place where we live, but also the harbor of our soul, no matter what difficulties and challenges we encounter, as long as we hold hands and face them together, we can overcome everything.
"Xiao Ming, Xiao Wen, I really thank you." The mother-in-law looked at us with gratitude in her eyes, "I will cherish every day with you in the future." ”
Xiaowen and I looked at each other and smiled, full of relief and satisfaction. The harmony of the family needs to be managed and guarded together, but as long as we are grateful and tolerant, we can make the warmth of the family exist forever.
Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it is another season of spring flowers. The atmosphere at home has become more harmonious, and my mother-in-law has gradually integrated into our lives. She is often busy at home, doing all kinds of household chores, and sometimes cooking us some delicious home cooking.
"Xiao Ming, Xiao Wen, today I made you your favorite braised pork." The mother-in-law smiled and served a plate of fragrant dishes.
I smelled the meat and couldn't help but salivate: "Thank you, mother-in-law, you are so virtuous." ”
Xiaowen also smiled and praised: "Yes, mother-in-law, the dishes you cook are really getting better and better." ”
The mother-in-law listened to our compliment, and her face was full of happy smiles: "Hehe, it's all for you, I will try my best to learn to make more delicious food." ”
With the enthusiastic participation of my mother-in-law, our family has become more warm and harmonious. Every night, we would sit around the dining table, taste the food cooked by my mother-in-law, chat about household chores, and feel the happiness of the family.
"Xiao Ming, Xiao Wen, I want to tell you something." The mother-in-law suddenly spoke, her expression a little serious.
Xiaowen and I glanced at each other, and couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in my heart: "Mother-in-law, what's the matter?" ”
The mother-in-law pondered for a moment and slowly spoke: "I know that I didn't treat you well before, maybe there are many things that I didn't do well enough, but I really appreciate that you have always tolerated and cared for me. From now on, I will cherish our time together and stop causing you trouble. ”
Xiaowen and I listened to my mother-in-law's words, and a warm current surged in our hearts. This sentence may be simple, but it is the promise and change of our mother-in-law, and it is also the guarantee of harmony and happiness in our family.
"Mother-in-law, we all know what you said, we have always regarded you as family, and you are welcome to join our family." I said softly.
Xiaowen also added with a smile: "Yes, mother-in-law, our home is your home, and we will live together and take care of each other in the future." ”
The mother-in-law listened to our words, and her eyes were full of gratitude and joy: "Thank you, I will cherish our time together and do more for you." ”
At that moment, I felt the warmth and happiness of my family, and I also realized how important it is to understand and tolerate each other. Our family has finally ushered in true harmony and happiness, and I believe that in the days to come, we will be more united and create a better life together.
