Today's story
The netizen group told me such a story, which shocked me:
She said that since marrying her husband, as long as she and her husband are not cooking, they can't eat enough at her in-law's house.
The parents-in-law's family is not poor, and the assets are at least several million, and there is a storefront. But her parents-in-law's family lived in an old house that was moldy without sunlight, and lived a frugal life. But under the name of his father-in-law, there is a luxury car of more than 500,000 yuan.
When five adults and two children eat, they just have a pot of cucumbers, a pot of vegetables, and an eggplant, and they can't even see a meat star. Netizens complained about the small reunion and complained that they couldn't eat enough at every meal. Usually, as long as my mother-in-law cooks, I can't even eat shredded meat a few times a month. There are maggots in the meat I ate yesterday.
Every night, she and her husband have to secretly order takeout, and the next day they get up and throw away the box before their in-laws get up. Or the in-laws and guilds will nag for a day, saying that they are wasting money.
Dinner cooked by my mother-in-law
Every time they bought meat or fish, as long as they weren't cooking, the meat was immediately hidden in the freezer. Half a year later, the meat is still in the freezer. Every time the meat is pulled out, it is at least half a year ago.
I couldn't stand it, so the couple gritted their teeth and took the mortgage, and they also wanted to buy their own house. Now I don't dare to go home for dinner.
My husband said that he had forgotten how he grew up.
I don't understand, why are the older generations so frugal?
Many elderly people, even if they buy fruit and put it at home, are reluctant to eat it, they must wait until it is rotten, and they are reluctant to throw it away, and continue to eat it after they have been cut and broken.
Unplug the water as soon as it gets hot, turn off the range hood immediately after cooking, and be reluctant to go to the hospital if you are sick, and reluctant to turn on the lights at night until the house is completely dark.
I've asked some old people, and here's what they said:
1. They have experienced days of material scarcity before, and the days of not eating or drinking are terrible for them. Therefore, I dare not spend money lavishly now.
2. Their education from childhood to adulthood is to cherish food, and it is shameful to waste it! And working people don't need to eat meat every day.
3. Reluctant to spend money to enjoy, I feel that it is the only thing that capitalists do. In their opinion, being too comfortable means being lazy to eat.
4. The older you are, the more you are afraid that you will not have money to support your old age. Therefore, they are more willing to save their money and feel at ease.
5. It is different from the consumption concept of young people. In their opinion, it is good to have food and clothing, and there is no need to spend extra money for style and quality.
Is this the case for the old man of the small reunion family? No, a lot in reality. Check out what they have to say about the Little Reunion family!
Netizen Elena:
Haha, my lactation is a vegetarian dish, generally fried chrysanthemum, my mother-in-law said I love to eat this, don't let her do it, and have opinions, saying that I dislike what she does, the meat is bought and put in the refrigerator, her son in case he comes back to eat, he quickly takes it out and fries, and doesn't do it if he doesn't come back, and then I don't eat lunch directly, and when Dabao comes back in the evening, I stir-fry the vegetables, and the old man doesn't eat the baby, and I lost ten kilograms in the nine months when my lactating mother-in-law was in. The second year didn't come, and I came back in three months.
Netizen Butterfly:
This is the truth, I have experienced more than ten years ago when I gave birth, my husband was not at home, I lived with my mother-in-law, every day was noodle soup, every day was dizzy, and I was still breastfeeding the child in my arms, at that time I was less than 90 pounds, and I was more than one meter tall.
网友food was：
You still have 3 dishes, my rice is not enough, let alone vegetables, I was breastfeeding at that time, 3 meals a day of green vegetables, green vegetables are not much cooked.
Netizen Yangyang:
The old people like to eat light, and they think that young people are also used to eating light. This has nothing to do with money.
Netizen Traces:
It's better to go through each other, otherwise you really can't get by, because you're an outsider.
Write at the end:
Some people's living habits are lifelong and difficult to change. If you want a better life, you can't put your hopes in others. On your own! Whether it's marriage or life!
Do you have such thrifty elderly people in your family?
