There is no blood relationship or family relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Only the man in the middle maintains a relationship that is neither far nor close.
Once the man in the middle is unreliable and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fail to show sincerity to each other, then the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will become like strangers. No amount of making amends can replace the original sincerity.
Luo Qin (pseudonym) met an extremely partial and selfish mother-in-law. Of her husband's two demolished houses, she didn't give one to her eldest son, but gave them all to her younger son. From then on, Luo Qin no longer went back to her husband's house, but she couldn't bear the thought that five years later her mother-in-law came to her door and asked for 200,000 yuan for her retirement. But in fact, she was helping her brother-in-law pay off his debts.
01. The husband’s family was not given one of the two demolished houses, and the daughter-in-law did not return to her husband’s house.
In the third year of marriage between Luo Qin and her husband, the old house of her husband’s family was demolished and the two houses were divided into two houses and hundreds of thousands of compensation. Luo Qin and her husband were so happy that they didn't sleep all night. They were so eager to have a house that truly belonged to them, but the house price was too high. Even if they worked overtime every day, they couldn't save enough for the down payment of the house.
When Luo Qin and her husband got married, her mother-in-law cried out that she was poor and did not give her a bride price or buy a wedding room. She also bluntly said that Luo Qin was in free love and did not need to give a bride price. The couple had just started working and had little savings, so they had to rent a house to get married.
Now that she heard that her husband's family was to be demolished and divided into two houses, Luo Qin naturally thought that her mother-in-law must give one house to each son and treat them equally. But two months have passed since they were assigned a room, and their mother-in-law has never notified them to pick up the keys and the house.
Luo Qin couldn't help it, so she dragged her husband back to her husband's house, only to hear that her mother-in-law had given all the two demolished houses to her brother-in-law a month ago, leaving none for them. Luo Qin was furious and argued with her mother-in-law, but her mother-in-law believed that the house belonged to her and she could give it to whomever she wanted.
Luo Qin couldn't stand up to her mother-in-law, so she left her husband's house frustrated and never returned to her house again. Even during the holidays, her husband would go back alone. Luo Qin would rather stay in a rental house or her parents' house than go back and see her mother-in-law's selfish and partial face.
02. Five years later, the mother-in-law came to visit
. She gave all the two demolished houses to her younger son’s mother-in-law. She happily moved her luggage into her brother-in-law’s house and helped them raise their children with money and effort. All this made Luo Qin itchy with hatred, but there was nothing he could do about it.
was not assigned a house, so Luo Qin could only continue to work hard with her husband, and then bought her first house in her life in the fifth year of marriage. The couple was happy and worried at the same time. They were happy that they finally had a house, but they were worried that the money for the decoration of the house was not available.
Luo Qin persuaded her husband to go back and borrow some money from her mother-in-law for decoration, and he would return it in full in the future. But my husband was not happy at first, saying that he was already married and had a family, so it was not appropriate for him to take advantage of his old age. Later, I had the courage to borrow money, but my mother-in-law scolded her angrily: How old are you, and you are still asking your parents for money to renovate the house.
After being scolded, her husband never bothered to borrow money. Luo Qin had no choice but to go back to her parents' home to borrow money, and then she successfully renovated the house. The couple thought they could live a peaceful life without worries, but their mother-in-law came to visit.
03. Mother-in-law came to the door: Give me 200,000 to support me in my old age.
Mother-in-law came uninvited, which made Luo Qin's heart skip a beat. If mother-in-law didn't come to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, she must have done nothing good. Sure enough, only five minutes after my mother-in-law sat down, she got straight to the point: I am getting older now, so you can give me 200,000 for my retirement.
Luo Qin thought she heard wrongly, but when her mother-in-law repeated her request again, she realized that her mother-in-law was prepared. The mother-in-law continued to explain: It is the duty of sons and daughters-in-law to support their parents. I have lived with my younger son all these years, and now it is my eldest son’s turn to support him in his old age. I live with my younger son, but you have to give me 200,000 in one lump sum for pension.
When the mother-in-law spoke like this, both Luo Qin and her husband looked extremely ugly. A pension of 200,000 yuan is really a big deal for a lion. Luo Qin, who has never enjoyed any kindness from her mother-in-law since her marriage, finds it extremely ridiculous.
She asked her mother-in-law, you live with your brother-in-law, but you ask us to give you 200,000 yuan in pension funds. This 200,000 yuan pension fund is not spent by you, but for your brother-in-law.
Luo Qin had heard that his brother-in-law was very ambitious and had no business experience, but he partnered with others to do business. As a result, his partners defrauded him of all his money, and he also owed hundreds of thousands of foreign debts.
04. The mother-in-law was sent away by her son with 5,000 yuan.
Seeing that the purpose was revealed, the mother-in-law became angry and said: Don't care who the money is for, you have to support me anyway. As for whoever gives the money to me, that is my right and you have no right to interfere.
Seeing that her mother-in-law was so stubborn, Luo Qin lost her patience and told her directly that it was okay to provide for her in retirement. First, she would divide the two demolition houses and hundreds of thousands of compensation equally, and then we would talk about the 200,000 pension fund, otherwise I would not pay any money. Will not come out.
The mother-in-law was irritated and finally slammed the door angrily and left. After that, the mother-in-law complained to her eldest son many times, but Luo Qin was in charge of the money. No matter how foolish and filial her husband was, he did not dare to risk divorce to help his younger brother, so he could only send her mother-in-law away with 5,000 yuan.
How can my mother-in-law be so willing? She ruins her husband's reputation in front of relatives and friends every day, saying that he is a white-eyed wolf and ungrateful. He married a daughter-in-law and forgot about his mother. He didn't even support his biological parents. In response to this, my husband became even more disappointed, and even blocked her mother-in-law's contact information, and never took the initiative to mention taking money to honor her parents.
