story: My mother came to my house, but my mother-in-law didn't cook when it was time for dinner. I cried when I heard her call!
I grew up in a rural area. When I was a child, I wanted to study hard. When I grew up, I would be filial to my parents because I knew it was not easy for them to support my education. When
was in college, he enrolled in a school out of town. He wanted to save some fares and only went back home once a year. He spent his time working part-time to make money and spent less time with his parents.
After working, I thought I could finally make money on my own, be filial to my parents, and not let them worry about me anymore, but I got married again not long after I started working.
After getting married, things became more and more complicated, and I spent less and less time with my parents. When I got busy, I didn’t even have time to make a phone call.
Therefore, after I got married, I had less time to go back to my parents’ home. I was busy with work and life, but my mother still called me from time to time to care about my life, and then hung up quickly, saying that she would not waste my time.
I feel very guilty every time I talk to my mother on the phone. When I was a child, I always said that I should be filial to my mother and stay by her side, but when I grow up, I have no time to spend with her.
A few days ago, my mother called me and told me that the old hen at home laid a lot of eggs. Knowing that I like to eat them, she saved all the eggs and asked me to go back and get them when I was free.
In fact, I know that my mother not only wants me to go back to get eggs, but also wants to see me. We haven't seen each other for a long time.
I originally promised my mother that I would find time to go back, but my work suddenly became busy, so I could only tell my mother that I could not go back for the time being. When my mother found out, she said it was okay, then she would come to visit me and bring me the eggs. When my mother said this, I was a little sad. I didn’t want my mother to come.
I live with my mother-in-law. I think my mother does this because she doesn’t want to get along with her. Although I didn't see any conflict between them, they didn't talk much when they sat together. I think it was because they didn't see each other very often.
I told my mother that I would definitely find time to go back, but my mother insisted on bringing me chickens and eggs.
I am always happy when my mother comes. I told my mother-in-law about this, saying that my mother will come to my house today to deliver free-range eggs to me. I hope she can go to the vegetable market and buy some good vegetables.
After I told my mother-in-law, I went out to work. I was very excited all day long, thinking about my mother coming. My work efficiency also improved a lot, and I went home on time after get off work.
I thought I would see steaming meals when I got home, but when I opened the door, I saw my mother sitting alone on the sofa in the living room.
My mother seemed relieved to see me back and quickly stood up to talk to me. I walked over and sat on the sofa with my mother to chat with her. I didn't see my mother-in-law during the
period. I thought she was cooking in the kitchen so I went to see her, but there was no mother-in-law in the kitchen.
And the kitchen was very clean, and there was no sign of cooking. I was very angry. I had obviously told my mother-in-law that my mother would come today and hoped that she could buy some vegetables, but they treated my mother like this.
I saw that my mother-in-law’s door was open, and I wanted to go in and argue with her. When I walked to the door of the room, I heard my mother-in-law talking on the phone to my husband.
"Why aren't you back yet? Didn't I tell you today that Xiaolan's mother is coming today? You also know that your mother-in-law doesn't come easily. She leaves very quickly once she comes, and I didn't entertain her well before. I booked a table at the restaurant downstairs and thought that when Xiaolan comes back, the whole family will eat there. You are also here today. Stop working overtime and come back to accompany your mother-in-law. You are not sensible at all."
After hearing what my mother-in-law said, I felt ashamed of my suspicion just now. It turned out that my mother-in-law did not ignore my mother, but they felt that it was not easy for her to come and she should be treated well.
I cried secretly outside the door. I felt very happy to be able to marry my husband and have such a good mother-in-law. I will treat her well in the future.
