The mother-in-law who used to treat her daughter-in-law well in the nursing home asked her soul: What about the mother-in-law who has been watching her for ten years and her daughter-in-law for ten years?
Sitting in the sunny yard, her aunt carefully watering the flowers and plants, her leisurely expression revealed a sense of peace and contentment. She is the helpful and kind-hearted old man, who always takes care of her daughter-in-law as if she were her own daughter.
However, at this moment, a wave of doubts surged in her heart. Once upon a time, was her kindness and dedication to her daughter-in-law really understood? She began to think about this question, and although doubts gradually grew in her heart, she could not bear to easily deny her daughter-in-law's understanding and return.
As she fell into deep thought, a gentle voice broke the silence. "Mom, I'll help you." Daughter-in-law Xiaoli came over with a smile, took the kettle in her hand, and gently watered the flowers and plants.
The aunt was slightly stunned, and then a trace of emotion flashed in her eyes. Perhaps, the sincerity and kindness buried in her heart were finally perceived by her daughter-in-law.
Xiaoli continued: "Mom, you see, these flowers are growing so well, and they are all the result of your careful care. Her words revealed respect and gratitude to her aunt.
Auntie's heart warmed when she heard this, and she realized that her worries might be unnecessary. It's not that the daughter-in-law doesn't know how to appreciate and reciprocate, it's just that the way of expression is different.
Gradually, my aunt understood a truth: love and kindness do not have to be clearly reciprocated, they are like seeds that have been sown, taking root and sprouting silently, and will eventually bloom into their own flowers.
"Xiaoli, you are such a sensible child." Auntie said softly, her eyes full of relief and encouragement, "In the future, the affairs of the yard will be handed over to you." ”
Xiaoli smiled and nodded, she didn't speak, but she secretly made up her mind in her heart to pass on her aunt's love and continue to take care of this garden that belonged to the two of them with common memories.
At this moment, the doubts in the aunt's heart gradually dissipated, and were replaced by an inexplicable joy and satisfaction. Perhaps, the reason why she is so devoted to her daughter-in-law is not only out of responsibility and obligation, but also because of her sincere emotions and desires.
In the past ten years, she has not asked for anything in return, but only hopes to use her kindness and love to warm her daughter-in-law's heart, just like the sunshine, blooming the beauty of life.
The ending of the story may not be surprising, but there is a touch in the blandness. The emotion between the aunt and the daughter-in-law does not need flowery words and warm emotions, only a sincerity and tolerance, which is enough to hold up a warm sky.
In our busy lives, perhaps we always ignore those ordinary and warm details, and it is these details that constitute the most beautiful scenes in our lives. When we feel and appreciate with our hearts, we can truly understand the beauty and true meaning of life.
Therefore, let us learn to treat the people and things around us with a normal heart, and be grateful and repay with a sincere heart, perhaps, in this process, we will find that the warmth and beauty in life do not only exist in the big events and achievements, but also hide in those ordinary and sincere emotional exchanges.
