Recently, the company has not been too busy, and my husband and I have taken a few days off and are going back to our hometown to see my in-laws.
I always asked my in-laws to move in with us, but they refused, saying that there were still many relatives in the countryside who wanted to move around, and they wouldn't see each other in the city.
No way, we can only take time to go back to see them more, in recent years, my in-laws' legs and feet have not been good, and some distant relatives can't move around, my husband and I went for them.
After coming back this time, I haven't had a good rest for two days, my mother-in-law took a bag of pickles that she had sunned, and said to the two of us, you go to see your sister-in-law tomorrow, and by the way, take this bag of pickles, she loves to eat my dried pickles, I haven't sent her after my bad legs and feet, just when you two are at home, you two send it.
It just so happened that we hadn't seen my sister-in-law for a few days, so I answered for my husband and went to the supermarket to buy some gifts and fruits, ready to bring them to my sister-in-law.
The next morning, because I got up a little early, I had no appetite to eat, so I only drank two mouthfuls of porridge and stopped eating.
After my husband saw it, he said to me, you should eat at home first, I shook my head and said, wait for lunch at my sister-in-law's house, my sister-in-law is not not not giving us food, why do we have to eat so much.
Seeing that I couldn't make sense, my husband also gave up, and told me, anyway, I'm reminding you, it's your own business whether you eat enough or not, and I don't care about you when you're hungry.
Although I said so, I still resigned myself to my fate and drank two more mouthfuls of porridge, then changed my clothes, took gifts and drove to my sister-in-law's house with my husband.
My sister-in-law's house is not very far from my mother-in-law's house, and it takes about 20 minutes to drive.
My husband told me righteously that he might forget the way to anyone's house, but he will always remember the way to his sister-in-law's house, because this road was walked hundreds of times when he was a child.
Back then, after my in-laws gave birth to my husband, they both went to other places to work hard, leaving my husband in the care of my grandmother and sister-in-law.
At that time, the grandmother no longer had the energy to take care of a child, so the responsibility of taking care of her husband fell on the sister-in-law.
I think that back then, when my husband was born, my sister-in-law had just become an adult, so she had no experience in taking care of children, so she could only ask for help everywhere.
My sister-in-law told me that at that time, she ran to other people's houses with Xiao Gong (husband) in her arms every day, either to learn from this experience, or to ask that person for experience, and she was stunned to hone a girl who was not yet married into a master of taking care of children.
At that time, an interesting thing happened, a matchmaker in the village came to tell her sister-in-law that she was matchmaker, and the two of them had met, and they were both very satisfied with each other, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a certainty.
But on the day that my sister-in-law's blind date came to her, I happened to meet my sister-in-law running around with Xiao Gong, and people misunderstood at the time, thinking that Xiao Gong was my sister-in-law's child, and refused to run away with my sister-in-law.
My sister-in-law's first family affair was so yellow, and then my sister-in-law was sad, and then someone came to tell her about matchmaking, so she used Xiao Gong as a shield to scare people away and make my grandmother angry enough.
My husband said that he had been living with his sister-in-law until he was five years old, and in his impression, he always thought that his sister-in-law was his biological mother, and he had no father.
So when his in-laws came back to pick him up, he refused to go with them after he died, thinking that his sister-in-law didn't want him anymore, so he knelt on the ground with his sister-in-law's legs and cried to his sister-in-law, don't want him.
My sister-in-law was also reluctant, and said to her in-laws, the child is young, and he is not familiar with you, don't take it away yet, let him continue to follow me, and then get familiar with him and you, and then you will take him to your side.
Don't look at Xiao Gong was only five years old at that time, in fact, he had a lot of eyes, he heard outside that he was going to send him away in the end, he began to lose his temper and make a little temperament.
At that time, it was the sister-in-law who couldn't coax it, and the in-laws couldn't buy it no matter how much they bought the snacks, but it really made the sister-in-law and the in-laws worried.
Later, after a long time, Xiao Gong slowly forgot about it, but he has always been wary of his in-laws, although he will accept the snacks and toys they bought, but he just doesn't get close to them.
When Xiao Gong was seven years old, my sister-in-law got married, and the relationship between Xiao Gong and my in-laws had eased a lot, and they began to live with them.
I thought things were going in a good direction, but I didn't expect that something went wrong on the day of my sister-in-law's wedding, and I almost messed up my sister-in-law's wedding.
My sister-in-law told me that I didn't know that the person in the village teased him again that day, saying that I wouldn't come back after I got married, and I didn't care about him, and when I had my own children in the future, I wouldn't like him anymore.
When your little uncle came, he stopped people alive and lived, didn't let people in, and almost beat your in-laws and grandmother when he was angry, and then your little uncle said, let him go with me, so he didn't cry.
Later, your grandmother always told him that I was already married, and I couldn't always bother, otherwise my little uncle would be unhappy and would not treat me well, so I was stable for a few days.
I remember one time when he had a birthday, he ran more than ten miles to find me, and it happened that day that I went out with your uncle and came back in the afternoon, and the child stayed at my door for an afternoon.
His parents were going crazy, and they wanted to take him out for a day on his birthday, but they didn't expect that when they opened their eyes, they disappeared, and they searched the whole village without seeing anyone.
After I came back with your uncle, I found him at the door, so I sent him home, and when I sent him back, Xiao Gong also told me aggrievedly that today is his birthday, and he wants to eat the hand-rolled noodles I made, but he didn't wait for a day, and after meeting, he had to send him back in a hurry.
The sister-in-law said that she felt very uncomfortable when she heard this, so she stayed at her grandmother's house with her uncle for a day and spent the birthday with him.
Since this incident, my sister-in-law has never gone out again, even if she wants to go out, she must leave someone to guard at home, what she is afraid of is that Xiao Gong suddenly ran over and pounced.
Once born and twice cooked, since that birthday, Xiao Gong would come to my house from time to time, and he would run to me five days a week.
Later, after junior high school, it was a boarding system, and there was no time to rest, so he went less often, but every time as long as there was enough time, he would still go.
My sister-in-law also treats her husband as her own son, and every time I go, I buy a bunch of snacks and cook a table of delicious meals.
Then, my uncle had an accident on the construction site, and my sister-in-law's family was not as rich as before, and even owed debts, so my husband didn't go to my sister-in-law's house much.
My husband told me that it was not that he disliked his aunt's poor family, but that every time he went to his aunt, he would buy him delicious food, even if the conditions at home were not as good as before, he would still prepare, and he didn't want his aunt to spend more money.
In the past few years, the economic conditions of my sister-in-law's family have changed, but it is only enough for daily life, so every time they go to my sister-in-law's house, they put down their things and leave, and never eat at home, for fear of adding burden to my sister-in-law.
Even if it is to eat, they will be pulled to the restaurant to eat together, and then they will be responsible for the payment and will not let the sister-in-law pay.
But my sister-in-law is a real person, every time I go back after eating, I will always give him 200 yuan, sometimes they don't want it, and my sister-in-law will say angrily, don't come to my house next time.
Hearing this, I realized that my husband asked me to come back in the morning when I was full, because I didn't want my sister-in-law to break the bill for us, but unfortunately, I didn't listen to my husband's advice and came after drinking two mouthfuls of porridge.
When we arrived at my sister-in-law's house, it was only nine o'clock, and my sister-in-law took us to talk for a while, and then we were about to go to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
My husband hurriedly pulled my sister-in-law and said that I wouldn't eat here at noon, and I had to have something to do when I went back, so I sat for a while and left, so I didn't have to work.
My sister-in-law slapped her husband and said, you are all here, I can still ignore your food, your mother called me yesterday and said that you are coming, my dishes are ready, and I must eat here today.
My sister-in-law insisted on leaving us to eat, and we didn't refuse, but went into the kitchen to help my sister-in-law with her work.
My sister-in-law is a diligent and neat person, and in more than an hour, I made all the dishes on the table, and my husband and I made everything except for washing the vegetables.
At about twelve o'clock, we officially started to eat, and looking at the table of food full of color and aroma, my stomach screamed in anger.
After listening to it, my sister-in-law smiled and hurriedly beckoned the two of us to eat, should I say it or not, my sister-in-law's cooking is really delicious, no wonder my husband always ran to my sister-in-law's house when he was a child.
After eating, we chatted with my sister-in-law for a while and then prepared to leave, and when we left, my sister-in-law packed a bunch of things for us to take back to eat.
Before leaving, I took out the only 600 yuan in cash from my pocket and asked my husband to give it to my sister-in-law, and after my husband took the money, he didn't give it directly to my sister-in-law, but stuffed it under the quilt at my sister-in-law's house while my sister-in-law was packing up for us.
On the way back, I asked my husband why he didn't just give it to my sister-in-law, wouldn't my sister-in-law be happier?
My husband told me that if I gave it directly to my sister-in-law, my sister-in-law would not accept it, we just brought her some fruit and milk this time, and she collected a trunk of food for us.
I nodded, and my husband continued, put the money under the quilt, my sister-in-law will see it sooner or later, and when she sees her, she can't return the money anymore, so she can only accept it, isn't it better?
Harm, to put it bluntly, it's all for the sake of the other party, when I was young, my sister-in-law treated her husband sincerely, and now that my sister-in-law is old, I change my husband to be filial to my sister-in-law.
In fact, a family should not be like this, they all want each other to be good, so they try their best to help each other, and relatives help each other and tolerate each other, this is a harmonious and loving family!
