family has a son and a daughter, which is what many people dream of.
My wife and I were also very satisfied. We worked hard to raise our children and we reached the age of retirement.
I thought I could be free now, but who knew that the trouble had just begun.
called by phone: "Mom, your son-in-law and I are too busy. Are you and dad here to help me take care of the children?"
was called by my daughter Xiaohua. It's time for my grandson to go to kindergarten and need someone to pick me up and drop off.
The affairs of children are big things, let’s schedule the trip later!
My wife and I rushed to my daughter's home in Deyang . We lived there for two years, and the whole family was happy to be together.
Not long after, Xiaohui, the son who works in Guangyuan , gave us another surprise: "Mom, your daughter-in-law is pregnant, come and take care of her for a while."
My wife and I were separated from each other and began to live a separation life.
But the development of things actually caused an irreversible tragedy.
The palms and backs of hands are all flesh
In July 2019, my wife and I received a call from my son, who wanted me to go to Guangyuan with his father to help take care of my daughter-in-law who has been pregnant for more than 3 months.
At this time, my husband and I were in Deyang, helping our daughter Xiaohua take care of our grandson.
After graduating from college, my daughter worked in a foreign trade company. She is very busy with work and often travels on business trips.
The son-in-law also works in the same company. Because the son-in-law’s parents are not used to living in the city, they contracted an orchard in the countryside of Deyang and could not come to help them take care of their children.
My wife and I used to be ordinary employees of the factory and have been idle at home after retirement.
Son Xiaohui is 5 years younger than her sister. When he was admitted to university, Xiaohua was already working in Chengdu, so Xiaohua took the initiative to bear the tuition for several years of his younger brother's college.
Seeing that my daughter took care of her younger brother in this way, the old couple always felt relieved by Xiaohua's sensibility, so she asked us to help take care of her grandson, and we agreed without hesitation.
After Xiaohui graduated from university, he went to work in a company in Guangyuan, Sichuan and got married to his college classmates. Unexpectedly, his daughter-in-law became pregnant so soon, and my husband and I were very happy.
But the worry is coming. My grandson is only 5 years old now and I still can’t live without the care of adults. My daughter and son-in-law started their own business this year and opened a trading company by themselves. They are so busy that they can’t get time to pick up and drop off their children to school?
Actually, I have lived at my daughter's house for a long time and have become accustomed to life here. The son-in-law has a good personality and is filial to us. In this family, it is almost all my daughter and our old couple. I really can't bear to leave.
But my wife's parents are doing business in other places and cannot take care of their pregnant daughter. My son and daughter are both flesh that fell from me, so I can't ignore it.
Therefore, after discussion, my wife and I decided to split it into two. He picked up and dropped off his grandson at his daughter's house to school, and I went to my son's house to take care of his pregnant daughter-in-law.
Although her daughter Xiaohua couldn't bear to leave, under the current circumstances, she could only let her younger brother Xiaohui drive me to Guangyuan.
The face of the daughter-in-law
When I first arrived at my son's house, my daughter-in-law Minmin was quite polite to me, but a few days later, her spoiled and domineering personality also appeared.
Since we are from Sichuan , we are all used to spicy flavors and like to add a little chili when cooking.
When I was cooking fish at noon, I put some hot pot ingredients to cook.
Who knew that Minmin threw away the chopsticks after taking a bite and said unhappily: "It's so spicy, I won't eat it!"
"Cooking fish must be a little spicy to taste good!"
The son quickly smoothed out the situation, coaxed his wife, and smiled apologetically at me: "Mom, I forgot to tell you that Minmin will have acne after eating chili peppers, so she kept eating light."
"You only care about your own taste. Is it me who forgot to be pregnant? I don't know if I will take care of people!" Minmin simply stopped eating, stood up and entered the room.
I quickly got up and said to my son, "I'll go and cook a light dish again, don't let Minmin hungry."
Entered the kitchen, and I felt very uncomfortable. No one had scolded me at my daughter's house. My wife has always been considerate to me. Now I am not used to being separated from him suddenly. I have to look at my daughter-in-law's face carefully. I feel so aggrieved that tears burst out.
My son went out for a walk with my daughter-in-law on the night. I took the opportunity to clean up the house. When I got to the long boots that my daughter-in-law threw in the aisle, I picked them up and put them in the shoe cabinet.
Unexpectedly, I caused trouble again this time. When my daughter-in-law came back, she saw the boots in the shoe cabinet. It had been flattened when she took them out. She suddenly turned blue and she threw my shoes to the ground in anger.
Xiaohui hurriedly grabbed his wife, turned around and whispered to me, "Mom, don't touch her things in the future! "
A moment of depression surged into my heart, and I really wanted to shout loudly: "Since you dislike me, don't ask me to come and serve me! "
But I still resisted my grievances and tried to convince myself: my daughter-in-law is pregnant and I feel uncomfortable. I can't argue with her.
Although my relationship with my daughter-in-law has always been not very harmonious, I still took care of her at my son's house for more than 3 months.
At this time, I missed my wife even more and missed my little grandson, so I told my son that I wanted to go back and take a look.
My son also knew the conflict between me and Minmin. Seeing that I was unhappy, she agreed to leave temporarily.
Take care of my granddaughter
Back to my daughter's house. My wife and I told me about the frustration over the past few months, and he comforted me. Anime, I felt much more comfortable.
Two or three months later, Minmin reached the date of giving birth, and her son called me again and asked me to go over and help.
Although I was very reluctant to get along with my daughter-in-law, it was a big deal for her to give birth to a child, and it was unreasonable for her mother-in-law to not take care of her, so I had to bite the bullet and come to my son's house again.
Minmin gave birth to a daughter, and she was even more difficult to serve during the confinement period. No matter what I do, it often backfired and made her lose her temper.
One day I finally didn't stop the depression in my heart and shouted at her:
"Can you not speak so badly? No one has ever spoken like this at your sister's house. If you really don't like me, then I'll go back! "
The daughter-in-law couldn't stand it anymore and started crying. I had to apologize to her with shame again, but she kept crying until Xiaohui came back from get off work and heard her complain about her grievances.
Xiaohui looked at me complainingly, and then quietly said to me behind my back: "Mom, don't be as good as her, I'm in a dilemma. "
What can I say? In order to calm down, I could only resist my grievances and silently went into the kitchen to make dinner.
I was suffering at my son's house, and my daughter's house became uneasy.
Because my daughter and son-in-law were busy with the company, the matter of taking care of my grandson fell on my wife. He not only wanted to pick up and drop off the children, but also had to make clothes and food for the children.
Who knew that he didn't take good care of him for a while, and his grandson actually caught a cold and fever, and he had a fever, and he had a pneumonia , and stayed in the hospital for a whole week.
Although my son-in-law was also taking care of the children in the hospital, my wife was worried and went to the hospital to help every day.
was exhausted, when my grandson was just discharged from the hospital , my wife fell ill and stayed in the hospital.
I received the news that my wife was hospitalized and was anxious. I hurriedly explained the matter in his house to my son, so I hurried back to Deyang to take care of my wife.
My wife's health was just right, so he urged me to go back to my son's house. But my wife's blood pressure is unstable, so how can I rest assured that he is? Besides, I don't want to continue to be angry with my daughter-in-law, so I will never go.
My wife said, let's go to my son's house together, but no matter how hard my daughter's house cannot be separated from others, who will take care of my grandson when we leave?
Just when my wife and I were in a dilemma, a neighbor who usually had a good relationship with us gave me an idea, and asked us to spend some money every month to hire a nanny for our daughter-in-law's family to take care of, so that I don't have to separate from my wife.
I thought about it, so I asked Xiaohui and his wife to hire a nanny, and my wife and I came to pay the money.The daughter-in-law also accepted this arrangement, so her son went to the labor market to hire a nanny to help take care of her granddaughter.
My wife and I finally breathed a sigh of relief and continued to live in our daughter's house.
There is no medicine for regret in the world
I thought life should be like this, but after two months, my son Xiaohui called again to complain and asked me to go over and help them take care of the children.
Why is this? It turned out that Xiaohui hired three nannies in a row. They all resigned because their daughter-in-law was too strong and they couldn't get along well, so their son had to come and ask me to go and take care of my granddaughter again.
My daughter Xiaohua talked about this, and she said angrily: "If you don't want to be angry with Minmin, don't go, let them mess around on their own!"
So Xiaohua called to scold her brother, and Xiaohui was also worried about the family affairs and started arguing with his sister on the phone.
Their sibling relationship has always been good, but this time he seemed to be provoked by his daughter-in-law. He said that his sister was selfish and wanted to occupy her parents to take care of her children. He also said that they had a daughter, and my wife and I prefer boys over girls, and they prefer grandchildren rather than granddaughters.
What can I do? They are all their own children and grandchildren, so how can they not be close to each other? In order to calm the dispute, I had to promise that my son would go and take care of his granddaughter.
The next day, my son drove to my daughter's house to pick me up. Xiaohua held me and said to her brother, "Mom has suffered a lot of grievances when she came to your house. Don't you know? You can't pick me up today. My sister won't agree!"
Xiaohua locked me and my wife in the room. She wanted to solve the problem with Xiaohui alone in the living room.
We only heard the quarrels in the living room getting louder and louder, and it lasted for a while.
Suddenly, a "ah" scream came from outside, and my wife and I were stunned.
The moment my wife knocked the door of the room hard, I saw my daughter Xiaohua covering her chest and shaking. Xiaohui held a bloody fruit knife in her hand and looked at us in horror:
"Sister...Dad, mom, I didn't mean it! I..."
Why did this happen? It turned out that Xiaohui lost his mind while making a quarrel with Xiaohua, grabbed the knife that cut fruit in the living room and stabbed his sister.
No one expected that this knife stabbed Xiaohua in the heart, and his daughter stopped breathing on the way to the hospital...
Xiaohui killed his real sister!
In a day, one of our children was in jail and the other lost their lives.
is all caused by the trouble of raising children. What was my wife and I wrong?
