The 79-year-old mother lived in her daughter's house to support the elderly, gave two houses to her son, and said to her daughter: You are an outsider
My name is Li Mei, I am 52 years old and I am a secondary school teacher. My mom is 79 years old, her health has not been good, my dad died early, and my mom has lived alone in the old house all these years. Last winter, my mom accidentally fell and broke a bone and spent months in the hospital. After I was discharged from the hospital, the doctor suggested that it was best to have someone take care of me, so I discussed with my husband and brought my mother to live with me.
My husband is an only child, and my in-laws left early, so our family has never lived with the elderly. My husband was a little hesitant at first, worried that my mother would not be used to living and that we would not be able to take care of it. I told him, "I don't feel at ease when my mother is home alone, and besides, she's old and there is no one around." You should think of one more mother and I have one more father, let's be filial to them together, okay? "When my husband heard me say this, he no longer objected.
Our house is a three-bedroom and two-living room house, my husband and I live in the master bedroom, my son lives in the second bedroom, and there is a room that is empty, just enough for my mother to live in. In order to greet my mother, we cleaned up the room and went out of our way to buy a new mattress, hoping that she would be more comfortable.
On the day my mom came to stay at home, I took a day off to pick her up at the station. When I saw my mom get out of the car, my nose was so sore that tears almost fell. My mother was old, her hair was gray, her back was hunched, and she walked tremblingly. I hurriedly stepped forward to support her and said, "Mom, you are here, you want to kill me!" ”
My mom smiled and patted my hands and said, "You kid, why are you still crying?" Mom, isn't that good? ”
I helped my mom into the house, showed her about the house, and took her to her room. My mother was very happy to see that the room was so warmly furnished and said, "This room is really nice, much better than the one I live in." ”
When my mom first came to live at home, we were very reserved. I was worried that she was not used to it, so I changed my tricks every day to cook food for her, and often chatted with her and took her out for a walk. Although my husband doesn't say anything, he also cares about my mother in action, and when he comes back from work, he will take the initiative to help my mother pour water, and often play chess with her.
My mom is a very open-minded person, and it's gratifying to see that we are so good to her. She often said, "You guys are busy with work, you don't have to revolve around me all the time, I can take care of myself." ”
After my mother came to our house, I took care of my daily life. I wake up early every morning to make her breakfast and then take her to classes at the University for the Elderly. In the afternoon I went to pick her up, chatted with her, and cooked her dinner in the evening. My mother is not in good health, and she often gets up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, and I get up to help her every time.
My mom has two children, and I also have a younger brother named Li Qiang. My younger brother works in sales for a company and earns a decent income, but he is very busy at work and travels a lot, so he rarely comes home to visit my mother. My brother only came once when my mom was sick and in the hospital, and he came in a hurry, stayed for less than an hour and left.
I felt a little uncomfortable, but I didn't say anything. After all, my brother is busy with work, and I understand. My mom also often spoke for my brother in front of me, saying that he was under a lot of pressure at work, and asked me not to blame him.
After my mom came to stay at my house for a while, one day she suddenly called me into her room and said she had something to discuss with me. I didn't think much of it at the time, so I followed her into the room.
My mom took out a document bag from under her pillow, handed it to me, and said, "Xiaomei, these are my two property certificates, you can keep them." ”
I opened the file bag and looked at it, and I was stunned. These two property certificates, one is the old house where my mother lives now, and the other is the welfare house assigned by my parents' unit, which is now rented. Although these two houses are not big, they are both in good locations, and the combined market value is at least five million.
I was surprised and asked, "Mom, what are you doing here?" Why give me the house? ”
My mother said, "I plan to give both of these houses to your brother." Your brother is a son, and if he wants to marry a daughter-in-law and have children in the future, he needs a lot of money. You're already married, and you're someone else's family, so you don't have to worry about these things. ”
When I heard this, my heart felt like I had been pricked by a needle. I held back my tears and said, "Mom, what do you say? How did I become someone else's family? I'm your own daughter! ”
My mom said impatiently, "What's the use of you telling me this? Since ancient times, your brother is my reliance on the water spilled by my married daughter. If you are filial to me, don't fight with me about this. ”
I couldn't hold it back any longer, and tears welled up in my eyes. I said, "Mom, how can you say such a thing?" How much have I paid to take care of you over the years? What has my brother done for the family? When you were sick and hospitalized, who took care of you day and night in the hospital? Who is it for you that you can't even take care of your own home? Now that you're all right, you're going to kick me away and give everything to my brother, have you ever thought about how I feel? ”
My mother said coldly: "I raised you, and I am already worthy of you." Everything you do for me, you should do. Your brother is a man, and he will have greater responsibilities than you in the future, so of course I will help him more. ”
I was in utter despair. I didn't expect that in my mother's heart, I was an outsider. I ran out of the room crying, went back to my room, closed the door, and began to cry.
My husband heard my cry and quickly came and knocked on the door and asked me what was wrong. I told him what had happened, and after hearing this, my husband said angrily, "It's too much! How can there be such a mother? You've done so much for her, and she's done this to you! ”
I cried and said, "I was so good to her, she even called me an outsider, and my heart was broken." ”
My husband took me in his arms and comforted me and said, "Don't cry, you still have me." Your mother is unkind, and we can't be unjust. In the future, we will live a good life without her as a mother. ”
I cried for a while, and my mood slowly calmed down. I knew I couldn't give up my life because of my mother's partiality. I still have a husband and a son, and they all need me.
I wiped away my tears and said to my husband, "You're right, we can't ruin our lives because of her." In the future, we will live a good life without her as a mother. ”
Since then, my attitude towards my mother has become much colder. I still take care of her daily life, but I don't care about her as much as before. My mom seemed to realize her mistake, but she couldn't pull her face to apologize to me, just silently accepted my coldness.
I knew that there was an irreparable rift between me and my mother. Perhaps, this is life, full of helplessness and regret.
