Since ancient times, there has been a controversial saying among the people: if you marry a wife, you will forget your mother. But in reality, this situation is not uncommon.
Three years ago, a couple in Shaanxi, who were over 70 years old, took out the money they had saved for their whole life and bought a house for their son in Xi'an. I thought I could live with my son and daughter-in-law when I was old, but after I had a grandson, Mrs. Ge and his wife couldn't even enter their son's house!
Save all your life and save money to buy a house for your son
Old Lady Ge and his wife are from Baoji, Shaanxi. They are authentic farmers. When they were young, Old Lady Ge was in poor health and suffered from polycystics. She was nearly 50 years old and gave birth to a baby son.
Old Mrs. Ge and his wife who had a child in their old age were naturally very rare. They were busy until they were in their 70s and did not stop working. They finally gave their son to college. The old couple thought about buying a house for their son in Baoji .
's son is also very successful. He has no academic assistance from his parents since he was a child, but his grades have never been worrying. In the year of the college entrance examination, he was admitted to Xi'an Jiaotong University with excellent results. After graduation, he had the plan to stay in Xi'an.
Learning that his son wanted to stay in Xi'an, the old couple didn't meet for a few days. The next door Lao Zhang family spent more than 1.7 million yuan on the second-hand house he bought in Xi'an the year before, while the new house Lao Wang bought for his daughter in Baoji was only 700,000 yuan.
Finally, Old Lady Ge couldn't stay at home, so she got up early and ran to Xi'an. After finding her son, she said she would go to see the house. The son was very happy and immediately expressed his desire to take his girlfriend to see the house. Only then did Mrs. Ge find out that her son was having a date.
Compared to the shock brought by her son's relationship, Mrs. Ge couldn't recover for a long time after watching the house. The new house with an average price of nearly 20,000 yuan is worth 2 million yuan. After seeing the house, Mrs. Ge stopped saying that she would discuss it with the old man, and she didn't even look at her daughter-in-law in the eye.
After returning home, Old Lady Ge told the old man about the situation, and the old man was worried. These two million were really astronomical figures for the old couple. If they barely pieced together, they would probably make half of the money. I didn't want my son to be disappointed, nor did I want my child to take the loan. I thought about calling my son to see the second-hand house in the suburbs.
Fortunately, my son also felt sorry for his parents. After hanging up the phone, he said he had a look at a suitable one. This house is located in , Lianhu District, , 5 minutes from Metro Line 8, and the building area of is 83.78㎡, two bedrooms, two living rooms and one bathroom, fine decoration, northeast facing, sufficient lighting, middle-level households in high-rise communities, with a total price of 1.02 million yuan.
After the son got married, taking care of his wife during confinement triggered a conflict
There was almost no hesitation, so Old Mrs. Ge agreed. Because the gap between the drop from 2 million new houses to 1.02 million second-hand houses made the couple feel very sorry for their son. So when faced with their son's choice, they hollowed out their family's assets and paid the full amount to show their support.
Before buying a house, my son went back to his hometown, took away his household registration book and said he wanted to register for marriage. My girlfriend has been with me for many years and said that her name should be included in the house book. Old Mrs. Ge and his wife did not raise any objections, but said they had time to bring the girl back to see her.
The second time Mrs. Ge met her daughter-in-law was on her son’s wedding day. The wedding was very simple, with only a few tables in total. The son knew that his parents spent all their money on buying a house, and did not make any requests from the family when they got married. After discussing with his girlfriend, everything was kept simple.
A year later, the daughter-in-law became pregnant. The son called and asked Mrs. Ge to take care of her pregnancy. Mrs. Ge thought about it for a long time at home, but she still couldn't bear to put down her work. She told her son that she would go after giving birth. Now she would take a day off and stop working for one day, which was 12 yuan per hour!
Who knew that my daughter-in-law was in poor health during pregnancy, and she had gestational diabetes , and she had repeated bleeding. She went to the hospital every few days, or she would just lie down at home. My son called several times, but Old Lady Ge did not agree. She felt that her daughter-in-law was still young, so she just took it over.
It was like this. It was not until the daughter-in-law was born that Mrs. Ge stopped working and came to Xi'an to take care of her daughter-in-law during her confinement period. Who knew that within a few days, the two had a conflict.The wife disliked Mrs. Ge for being unhygienic and kept kissing the baby. Mrs. Ge felt that her daughter-in-law was too spoiled, and she was picky if she didn't do it.
was just secretly angry at the beginning and complained behind his back that something happened a few days later made his wife directly pull down her face and start a war with Mrs. Ge. It turned out that Old Mrs. Ge did not hold her back while bathing her child, so she threw her child down.
was not very heavy, but the daughter-in-law was not able to bear the child for only a few days. She immediately cried and asked Mrs. Ge to get out. When her son received the call, she rushed home. Her wife even counted the various crimes of Mrs. Ge. She did not take care of her during pregnancy and was not caring for her during confinement. Her son also felt sorry for the child and couldn't help but blame Mrs. Ge.
Old Lady Ge felt a little disappointed for a moment. She fought for work every second and insisted on her wife giving birth. Didn’t the money she earned be handed over to her wife at the first time? The house I bought after working hard all my life, but my wife asked me to get out? This is wherever you go, how can you live your life in the future?
After returning to his hometown in anger, he wanted to come back, but his daughter-in-law disagreed with
. He couldn't get any comfort from his son. Old Mrs. Ge packed up and returned to her hometown that night. After arriving at home, she told the old man about the whole story. The old man shook his head and said nothing.
A few days later, Old Man Ge called his son and asked his son to take his mother over. After all, someone still needs to take care of the child. Unexpectedly, my son stammered for a long time and said no more.
After Old Man Ge asked, his son explained that after Old Man Ge left, his wife found a confinement nanny . Now the confinement nanny lives at home, and my mother has no place to live when she comes. Besides, my wife doesn’t like her now, so why are she here?
Old man Ge hung up the phone and kept scolding the ungrateful wolf. It was vain. Old Mrs. Ge hurriedly asked what was wrong. He didn't speak for a long time after knowing the whole story, and shed tears silently. During this period, she kept thinking, are she wrong? What was wrong?
