Sister-in-law, the dining table is too crowded, don't sit if your in-laws are outsiders

My name is Xiao Ming, I have been married for five years, and I live with my sister-in-law's family. On this day, my sister-in-law's family held a happy event and invited many relatives and friends to come to the house for dinner. The dining table was already small, but now it is even more crowded.

During the meal, I saw my in-laws standing beside me and there was nowhere to sit. I thought to myself, my in-laws are old, how tired they are to stand and eat. So, I couldn't help but say to my sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, the dining table is too crowded, do you think you can ask your in-laws to stop sitting and let them eat next to you?" ”

My sister-in-law glared at me and said angrily, "What do you know?" Today is the big day of my mother's family, how can my in-laws not sit? Besides, they are elders, how can there be any reason for them to stand? ”

I frowned, and I wanted to argue, but I was pulled by my daughter-in-law. She whispered in my ear: "Don't say it, today is a big day for my sister-in-law's family, don't let her not get off the stage." ”

I sighed and gave up. However, during the meal, I found that my in-laws really had no place to sit, so I had to stand aside. I don't feel good in my heart, and I feel sorry for them.

At this time, I saw my sister-in-law's mother-in-law sitting on the main seat, looking high. When she saw her in-laws standing, she laughed and said, "Oh, my parents-in-law, aren't you tired of standing and eating?" ”

The in-laws smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I stood up and said, "Mom, it's uncomfortable for you to sit there, why don't we change positions?" ”

My sister-in-law's mother glared at me and said, "What are you doing here?" I'm fine sitting here, I don't need to change it. ”

I gritted my teeth in anger, but I couldn't help it. I was on pins and needles at this meal, and finally I stayed up until I finished eating, and I quickly pulled my daughter-in-law away.

At night, I lay in bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, thinking about the day. My daughter-in-law saw what was on my mind and comforted me and said, "Don't think about it, this kind of thing will happen again in the future, so we can only try to adapt to it." ”

I sighed and said, "But I'm not feeling well and feel sorry for my in-laws." ”

The daughter-in-law was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Actually, we can live separately from my sister-in-law, so that there will be no such contradictions." ”

My eyes lit up and I thought it was a good idea. So, we started talking about moving out. Although we will face many difficulties, for the sake of our in-laws and our own happiness, we decided to work hard.

After this, we started looking around the house. And my sister-in-law, on the other hand, seemed to be aware of our intentions and had a much better attitude towards us. My in-laws also knew about our plans, and although they said they didn't need to bother, I knew they were happy in their hearts.

In this way, we are busy preparing for the day of moving. Although there are still many unknowns in the future, we believe that as long as we work hard, we will always live the life we want.

During this time, I deeply experienced the helplessness of family conflicts and the importance of family affection. And all this will become a valuable wealth on the road of our life and accompany us to a farther future.

The day of the move was finally set, and it was a sunny weekend. My sister-in-law also seemed to be relieved, maybe she also felt that this was good for everyone. Although the in-laws didn't say anything, their eyes lit up a little bit every time they mentioned moving.

On the day of the move, my daughter-in-law and I got up early in the morning and started to pack our things busily. The in-laws also came over to help, and although we gave them a break, they insisted on cleaning up together. There is a rare harmony in the atmosphere at home, and everyone is working hard for the new life that is coming.

"Xiao Ming, you will live by yourself in the future, you must take good care of yourself." My mother-in-law helped me pack the dishes and chopsticks while admonishing me.

"Mom, we'll be fine, and you have to take care of your health." I took the chopsticks from my mother-in-law's hand, and a warm current surged in my heart.

After packing up, we started moving the furniture. Seeing this, the neighbors all came to help. Everyone talked and laughed, as if it was a small community event. My sister-in-law was also in the crowd, and although she didn't say anything, I could feel that her attitude was much better than before.

Just as we were busy, there was a sudden cry. Everyone followed the prestige, and saw a little boy falling, his knee scraped, and crying sadly. I quickly put down what I was holding and ran over to comfort him.

"Children, don't cry, don't cry, be brave." I gently patted him on the back and tried to calm him down.

"Dad, I hurt." The little boy sobbed.

At this time, the sister-in-law came over, she squatted down, gently wiped away the little boy's tears, and said softly: "I know that the pain means that you have grown up, come, Auntie will blow it to you." ”

Looking at my sister-in-law's gentle side, I suddenly felt that she was not as unreasonable as I imagined. Perhaps, everyone has their own difficulties, but we don't have the opportunity to understand them.

After moving, we invited everyone to dinner to express our appreciation. At the dinner table, I noticed that my sister-in-law offered a place to her in-laws and asked them to sit down. I was secretly happy in my heart, maybe this move could really change our relationship.

In the evening, my daughter-in-law and I packed up our things in our new home. She leaned into my arms and whispered, "In the future, we will have to live by ourselves, what do you think it will be like?" ”

I smiled and said, "Either way, as long as we're together, it's the best day." ”

The moonlight shone on us through the window, and I hugged my daughter-in-law tightly, my heart full of anticipation for the future. I know that there will be many challenges in our lives, but as long as we walk together, we will always find our happiness.

Life went by peacefully, and it's been a month since we moved into our new home. Every day after work, I would go to the market with my daughter-in-law to buy groceries and cook together when I got home. Without the previous family conflicts, our lives are simple and happy.

One weekend, my daughter-in-law and I were reading a book at home when the doorbell rang. I went to open the door, and it was my sister-in-law standing outside the door, carrying some fruit in her hand.

"Sister-in-law, why are you here?" I asked, somewhat surprised.

The sister-in-law smiled slightly and said, "I came to see you and brought you some fruit by the way." ”

I hurriedly let her into the house, and my daughter-in-law also stood up to greet her. My sister-in-law looked around at our new home, nodded, and said, "It seems that you guys are doing well, and the house is very warmly furnished." ”

After we sat down, my sister-in-law suddenly sighed and said, "Xiao Ming, what happened before, it was my sister-in-law who didn't take into account your feelings. Now that you've moved out, I've thought about it a lot and feel like I should apologize to you. ”

I looked at my sister-in-law with mixed feelings, I didn't expect her to take the initiative to apologize.

"Sister-in-law, the matter is over, and we don't care about it anymore." The daughter-in-law smiled and comforted her.

The sister-in-law shook her head and said seriously, "No, I must say." I know that my previous attitude made it difficult for you to do it, and I should also respect my in-laws more. In the future, I'll pay attention. ”

Hearing my sister-in-law say this, the big stone in my heart finally fell to the ground. I understand that the previous contradictions are not insurmountable, as long as everyone has a heart, the family relationship can be repaired.

Since then, my sister-in-law has really changed a lot, she started to take the initiative to help her in-laws with housework, and she would also invite us back for dinner on weekends. Our relationship gradually became harmonious.

Soon after, my daughter-in-law told me that she was pregnant. We were ecstatic at the news, and we immediately told our in-laws and sister-in-law. Everyone was very happy, and my sister-in-law was so excited that her eyes were red.

"Xiao Ming, you will have your own baby in the future, I'm really happy for you." The sister-in-law held her daughter-in-law's hand tightly, and her voice was a little choked.

I looked at them with gratitude. In this family, although there have been contradictions, love has never disappeared.

As time went on, my daughter-in-law's belly grew bigger and bigger, and we began to prepare for the arrival of a new life. My in-laws and sister-in-law often came over to help and prepared a lot of baby supplies for us.

Finally, that day has come. When my daughter-in-law and I came home with our baby, the whole family was at the door to greet us. Looking at the smiles on their faces, I know that no matter how many difficulties there are in the future, we will face them together and get through them together.

This is our home, a place full of love. Here, we learn to be tolerant, we learn to understand, and we learn to value each other. And all these are the roads we have walked together and the precious memories we have left behind.

Time flies, and the baby is already full moon in the blink of an eye. We held a simple full moon wine for him and invited some friends and family. My sister-in-law was very attentive and personally selected the baby's clothes and toys for us, and also went to learn how to take care of the newborn.

"Xiao Ming, you see, this bottle is the best to use." My sister-in-law said as she showed it to us.

"Sister-in-law, you are so hearty." The daughter-in-law looked at her gratefully.

On this day, our family sat around the living room, watching the baby fall asleep sweetly, with a happy smile on his face. The in-laws looked at the baby with love in their eyes.

"Xiao Ming, you will definitely be good parents in the future." The in-laws said with a smile.

I looked at my daughter-in-law and my heart was full of gratitude. I know that we will work together to give our baby a happy home.

However, life is not always smooth sailing. After the baby was full moon, the daughter-in-law suddenly fell ill. She had a terrible fever and doctors recommended that she be hospitalized for observation. I looked at my daughter-in-law's pale face, and my heart felt like I had been pricked by a needle.

"Xiao Ming, don't worry, I'll be fine." The daughter-in-law said weakly.

I held her hand tightly and held back tears. I knew that at this time, I had to be strong.

During the period when the daughter-in-law was hospitalized, the sister-in-law and in-laws took turns taking care of the baby. They are very careful, for fear that the baby will be a little wronged. Looking at their busy figures, my heart is filled with gratitude.

"Xiao Ming, you can rest assured to take care of your daughter-in-law, the baby has us." My in-laws comforted me and said.

Finally, the daughter-in-law's condition improved and she was able to be discharged from the hospital. She looked at the baby with guilt in her eyes.

"Baby, mom is sorry for you, I couldn't take good care of you during this time." The daughter-in-law whispered.

I hugged them tightly and vowed in my heart that I would cherish them more in the future.

After being discharged from the hospital, our lives gradually returned to normal. The bigger the baby gets, the cuter it gets. We often go out for walks together as a family and enjoy happy times.

"Xiao Ming, look, the baby will smile." The daughter-in-law said excitedly.

I looked at the baby's bright smile and my heart was full of joy. I knew that this was the life I wanted, simple and happy.

This is our home, a place full of love. Here, we learn to be tolerant, we learn to understand, and we learn to value each other. And all these are the roads we have walked together and the precious memories we have left behind.
