As soon as Chen Lin entered the elevator, she smelled a scent of braised meat. No need to ask, it must have come from her home.
Sure enough, my dad was holding my grandson, and my mom was in the kitchen braised beef and large intestine .
Chen Lin took a piece of her hand and grinned with a hot teeth. Her husband Zhao Heng got off work.
"What are you making delicious, so delicious?" He ran towards the kitchen as he said.
Zhao Heng frowned: "There is no taste when the large intestine is braised. My mother stir-frys directly."
Chen Lin followed behind him, and was very angry when she heard this: "Your mother cooks delicious, so let your mother help you make it."
Zhao Heng was criticized by his wife in front of his mother-in-law, and he was a little embarrassed, so he simply refused to speak.
Chen Lin's mother glared at her daughter and said to her son-in-law: "I know you like to eat fried foods. I have left some for you in the refrigerator, and I will start stir-frying later."
Everyone has their own little thoughts for this meal, only Chen Lin's three-month-old son was babbling and having fun.
After the meal, Chen Lin and her mother washed the dishes together. The mother lowered her voice and said, "Please be careful when speaking and take care of your husband's emotions. After all, he is a man and wants to save face."
Chen Lin pursed her lips: "I just annoyed him to be unable to tell, how is he doing one mouthful? Why don't he come to help? Thank you for your hard work, but I haven't mentioned it in a word. I'm wronged for you."
"I don't feel wronged. I'm taking care of my daughter's children, not for my son-in-law. I have to be upright and live without being tired." My mother said,
When I rest at night, Zhao Heng still looked bad: "You spoke too much in the kitchen today, in front of your mother."
Chen Lin asked: "What sentence did I say too much? You only see what you don't like to eat. Do you see my dad holding a child? My mom is cooking in smoke? Your mom is good at this and that, it's all you said, but why don't you come to help you?"
Zhao Heng argued: "Isn't my sister still in school? They are not at ease"
"Isn't you still at ease when you go to college? Keep these words for lie," Chen Lin said angrily.
Zhao Heng was in a position of fault and secretly complained that he said the wrong thing and provoked his wife to make things worse, making both of them unhappy.
After all, it is because I am not used to living with my parents-in-law, and I am used to blurting out the words without shyness. The speaker is unintentional and the listener is intentional.
can be different, and it is unrealistic. Zhao Heng couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought of his incompetent mother.
…
When Chen Lin was in the late stage of pregnancy, Zhao Heng returned to his hometown, hoping that his parents could come and help take care of the children. The couple continued to work hard.
My mother refused: "You got married and had children, and my task was completed. Besides, you have your grandparents and your sisters, and you need money everywhere. How can I go to see the children?"
Zhao Heng, who was rejected, went back with a sad face. He couldn't make up a suitable reason, so he could only tell the truth.
Chen Lin called in disbelief and asked, "Mom, you have to ask for help during the confinement period. We have no experience."
mother-in-law: "We all came from that time. If I asked me these, I wouldn't understand even more. I forgot whether I had been in confinement period."
as he spoke, the topic changed. The rejection was obvious. Chen Lin was very proud of her and gave up the idea of taking care of her mother-in-law.
Please confinement nanny , go to the confinement center, which was not popular in small county towns, so Chen Lin thought of her mother who was taking care of her grandmother.
Zhao Heng disagreed: "Your mother is taking care of your grandma, and your father is not in good health. Now call her here. What do your relatives think of me? It's too unfilial."
Chen Lin: "Your mother doesn't want to come, and you don't want my mother to come. What should I do? Who will take care of the child after confinement and maternity leave? Can you rest assured to hire a nanny for such a young child?"
My husband had a good time and agreed to her proposal.
When Chen Lin was approaching her pregnancy and childbirth, her parents moved here and sat very comfortably during the confinement period, which made her mother lose weight.
After the child was born, Chen Lin's mother was afraid that her son-in-law would be tired from work and had a bad rest, so she took the child to their bedroom. The couple took care of her in the first half of the night and the second half of the night, and Chen Lin just got up at night to feed and suck her breasts.
Whether it is day and night, going to work or off work, Zhao Heng doesn’t have to care about anything at home, and his parents-in-law are doing it in an orderly manner.
The colleagues around him were envious of him so much, but Zhao Heng couldn't be happy. It was too inconvenient to live with his parents-in-law.
Zhao Heng is used to sleeping late, and after washing up, he stays in the study to read novels, write and draw, etc. The parents-in-law and the children sleep and get up, and after living together for a long time, the parents-in-law will complain about their dissatisfaction.
Father-in-law: "You should pay attention to your health when you are young, staying up late is not healthy."
Chen Lin gets up late, and although she will be chanted, she is her own mother after all, and she will not hold grudges. He is so old that he is so dissatisfied with being chanted and expresses dissatisfaction.
Originally, when the two lived, when it was hot in summer, Zhao Heng would wear shirtless shorts when he got home. After living with his parents-in-law, he would have to wear short sleeves no matter how hot he was.
There was a corner of Zhao Heng on the balcony, where figures, tea drinking tools, etc. were placed. The parents-in-law thought it was troublesome to clean and said that the children were unsafe to bask in the sun, so they all took it into the drawer.
Own private space was eroded little by little, and Zhao Heng couldn't help but give his wife an opinion: "We are independent adults and need to have our own space. Even if we don't have enough food and clothing or not, it is better than the current life."
Chen Lin was heartbroken: "That's because my parents took care of their children. You are so comfortable. After you ask you to take care of your children for a few days, you will find that the independent space in your mouth is nonsense."
The angry Chen Lin made up her mind to throw the child to Zhao Heng, and coaxed and deceived her parents to visit her grandmother.
After two hours, Zhao Heng couldn't hold on anymore. He called
"What should I do if the child doesn't sleep? I just slept when I put it down and woke up."
"You don't come back at noon, how can I eat?"
"How to charge milk powder? The child is pulled, I can't change my diapers. When will I come back?"
only experienced it for a day, Zhao Heng stopped talking about the independent space.
Chen Lin looked at all the changes in her husband coldly, and secretly arranged that her husband was not lucky enough to have food to eat at home, and she didn't have to worry about the children, and she didn't have to do housework. She also complained about this and that. I really don't know who gave her the courage?
Zhao Heng still feels that life is depressing, but reality cannot be changed, so he can only slowly get along with his parents-in-law and adapt slowly.
When Chen Lin gave birth to her second child, her grandmother was seriously ill. Her mother rushed to take care of her and left her father to see the two children at home. She couldn't bear it, so she went to invite her mother-in-law again.
The mother-in-law was pushed and stopped. She found many excuses, but she was unwilling to come. Chen Lin became angry at her husband: "What should I do? Should you ask for leave or should I ask for leave? My dad definitely can't take care of two children."
Zhao Heng was unwilling to see the child, so this matter fell on Chen Lin.
Chen Lin doesn’t need to experience the hardships of her parents. After sleeping, she felt: “If you have a child, you will know your parents’ kindness. My parents will help me now, and I will definitely provide them with their old age in the future.”
Zhao Heng whispered “Hmm”.
Chen Lin said dissatisfiedly: "What is your attitude? Can't you see the efforts of my parents over the past few years? Or is it said, whoever mom is in love?"
"I don't mean that, I just think it's boring to say that the vague promise." Zhao Heng
Chen Lin was satisfied and let him go.
In a blink of an eye, Chen Lin's son is ten years old. His parents have been taking care of the children in her house for more than ten years. They have proposed to go back several times, but before Chen Lin could keep them, the two children cried like tears.
Chen Lin: "What are you doing when you go back? There is no one at home. This is your family. You will be here to retire from now on."
Zhao Heng did not make any statement from beginning to end.
The child is getting older and older, and the house is getting smaller and smaller. Zhao Heng and his wife are planning to change the house.
The two went to see the house, Zhao Heng took a fancy to a four-bedroom and two-living room, Chen Lin was amazed, and the price of a square meter was also high.
Zhao Heng said, "The big house has been done in one step. My parents are older. Then we will come and live together. The two elderly families will support each other."
Chen Lin finds it ridiculous. Everyone has a different lifestyle. Can three families live together without any trouble? Besides, even if she reluctantly agreed, her parents would be embarrassed to continue living, which would be a killing donkey.
Chen Lin was so angry: "Why didn't you stay together when taking care of your child? I asked her to help me twice, and pushed her around and lived under the same roof in the future. I could live under the same roof? I don't agree with this matter."
" I have never relaxed after living with your parents for so many years. I want to live my own life." Zhao Heng finally said his heart.
Chen Lin sneered: "If you want to live your own life or want to kill a donkey? You know best in your heart. If it really doesn't work, then take your own parents to live."
The house was not completed, and the couple was still having an unhappy relationship. Chen Lin firmly thought that he must not let the life that had finally settled down and become a mess.
Without Chen Lin's consent, Zhao Heng's plan to buy a house was stranded, and it was even more ruined to take his parents to live there.
It is human responsibility to be grateful. If someone gives you one point, you must at least return one point. You must be grateful. Nothing is taken for granted.
You can’t just look at the surface when looking at the problem. Parents in-laws come to help take care of their children, but you can’t just look at the inconvenience. You have to look at the convenience they bring to you. Friends, do you think this is the reason?
