Li Rong's mother came. Li Rong immediately went out to the street to buy vegetables and cut meat, and made a large table of sumptuous dishes to entertain. After that, Li Rong did not let his mother go away, but led his mother to the street and bought a new set of clothes for his mother.
People often say that having a son is fame, and having a girl is a blessing. Look at your wife, how good she is to her mother. She has never bought me a piece of clothing, and you, a son, have never done anything that makes your mother feel warm! Mother, Grandma Yang, complained in front of her son.
The son said: Mom, don’t you remember this sentence? Whether your son is filial or not, it depends on whether the mother-in-law treats his daughter-in-law. If you treat your daughter-in-law as your biological daughter, your son and daughter-in-law will naturally be filial to you. Also, last time the child’s birthday was celebrated, the child’s grandmother gave him more than 2,000 yuan, and you didn’t give a penny!
Grandma Yang said angrily: The child’s grandmother is a relative, so of course she has to give money, that is gift money. I am the child’s grandmother, a family, what gifts should I pay?
The son said: If you think so, your daughter-in-law doesn’t think so. The etiquette you should pay attention to is still important, otherwise the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will become more and more indifferent!
After hearing what his son said, Grandma Yang didn't say anything, but she felt a little uncomfortable.
I remember when my daughter-in-law was in confinement, Grandma Yang said: I am afraid I can’t serve you well, so let your mother serve you in confinement! In fact, Grandma Yang was really worried that she would not be able to serve her daughter-in-law and complained during confinement. However, her daughter-in-law Li Rong thought that her mother-in-law was unwilling to serve her. She was very dissatisfied and called her mother to come.
When the child celebrated his first birthday, Li Rong and his wife invited many guests. Li Rong's mother took out two thousand yuan and said: This is a birthday gift from grandma to grandma, wishing grandma to healthy growth! After Li Rong accepted the money, he thought to himself: The child's grandmother gave more than 2,000 yuan, and the child's grandmother should also give two thousand yuan. However, after the child's first birthday party, the child's grandmother gave a penny.
Afterwards, Li Rong asked Grandma Yang angrily: Isn’t my child your grandson? Grandma Yang said: Why isn’t it? Of course it’s a grandson! Li Rong said: Since it is your grandson, the child’s grandmother gave him a gift of more than 2,000 yuan. Why don’t you, a grandmother, give a penny? Grandma Yang was also angry and said to Li Rong: It’s really unreasonable. I am the child’s grandmother and are all from the family. What kind of tribute should I give? One more effort!
From then on, Li Rong was very cold to Grandma Yang. Sometimes he didn't want to pay attention to Grandma Yang. Sometimes Grandma Yang hugged her grandson and asked her grandson to call her grandmother. Li Rong hugged the child over and said coldly: The child has no grandmother! When Li Rong's mother came to visit relatives, Li Rong kindly asked the child to call her mother grandmother or grandmother in front of Grandma Yang, and each person had two titles.
The daughter-in-law is cold to her, and her son also said that she did something wrong. Grandma Yang was very angry. Why did grandma also give gifts for her grandson on her birthday? They are all family members, and there is no need to give gifts! Grandma Yang insists on her own point of view.
So, as a family, should grandma give gifts like grandma for her grandmother? What do you think?
