My brother and sister-in-law have never worked, and my mother will give them 10,000 yuan per month for living expenses. But since her brother-in-law gave birth to a son, she began to be dissatisfied with the status quo and longed for the family property.
As my due date approached, I was in my room tidying up my maternity bag when suddenly my phone rang on my bedside table.
I picked up the **, and my brother-in-law immediately asked: "Sister, I haven't been out of confinement yet, why did you let my mother go?"What do you mean?”
I hurriedly explained: "Xiaofan, it's not like this. My brother-in-law has been on a business trip for the past two days because of the company, and I am about to give birth, so my mother is worried and says that she will come to take care of me. ”
The younger brother-in-law said reluctantly: "What does my brother-in-law's business trip have to do with me?"I am the eldest son and grandson of the old Li family. If you drive my mother away like this, I can't eat well, and the milk won't be good. The milk is not good, aren't you worried about starving your nephew?Aren't you distressed at all?”
I tried to soften and said, "Isn't it okay for my little brother to take care of you at home?"”
Don't you know what your brother is like?And the mother-in-law should take care of her daughter-in-law. Do you drive your mother away like this, and when they are old, do you rely on you to support their old age?”
I asked, "What do you mean exactly?"”
She replied coldly: "It's nothing, just to tell you, if my mother doesn't come back to take care of me, I won't take care of them when they get old!."”
Before I could answer, there was already a busy sound on the other end, and she hung up**.
I sat on the bed and froze for a moment. Suddenly, I heard the sound of the door opening the door.
I adjusted my mood and walked to the door. I saw my mother holding fresh vegetables and fruits in one hand and holding the door of the shoe cabinet in the other hand to change shoes.
She looked up and smiled, "I didn't hear a sound when I entered the door, so I thought you were sleeping." ”
I said, "No, I just checked the delivery bag again." Mom, there's nothing going on here, so why don't you go back?Xiaofan hasn't been out of confinement yet, and she may be careless when you're here. ”
Mom smiled and nodded, "Okay, then I'll go back." ”
As soon as I finished speaking, my mother's expression changed, "Did she call you a **?"
I nodded a little unhappily, thinking of my brother-in-law's words just now.
Ignore her, I've already worried a lot about both of them. Besides, she will be out of confinement in two days, can't they both take care of a child at home?I'm going back this time, and they're probably even more overwhelmed. ”
But if you don't go back like this, some people may gossip. ”
Whoever says it, just say it, I've seen more people over the years, they all eat me, live with me, and use me, they all take advantage of all the good things, you go to the sofa and sit down. I'll go and wash your grapes. ”
Mom went to the kitchen, and I took a fruit bowl and followed in.
The floor is slippery, don't come in, go sit on the couch. flour in the third cupboard. ”
I can find it, you go out and wait. ”
After a while, my mother came out with the washed grapes.
Mom, why don't you stay with me for two days, wait for Zhang Chen to come back from a business trip, and then you go back, the child is still young, and the two of them have no experience, what if something goes wrong?”
Don't worry, they're in charge, I'll take care of you here. If they're not sensible, I'll just stop giving them money, and your dad is here, don't worry. ”
I'm glad my mom didn't leave me alone at home to take care of my brother and daughter-in-law. That night, after I took a shower, I felt that something was wrong, and my mother quickly dialed 120, and then called my father and Zhang Chen, asking them to go to the hospital immediately.
When Zhang Chen rushed back overnight, I was still in the delivery room, and I had been in pain for six or seven hours, and the baby was finally born, and I fainted because of exhaustion.
My husband said that when I was in a coma, my brother-in-law beat my mother again and was scolded by my mother. And mom said that from next month, no more money will be given to them, let them figure it out on their own.
After five days in the hospital, the doctor confirmed that our mother and child were safe and allowed us to be discharged. After returning home, my mother continued to cook confinement meals for me, carefully matching nutrition and caring for me.
On the seventh day, I was discharged from the hospital, and my family welcomed my younger brother and sister-in-law with their children.
Sister, congratulations. My brother-in-law smiled and handed me a red envelope.
Thank you, Little Sail. I took the red envelope and replied with a smile.
Wow, this kid looks so fair!It's only been a few days since he's been so white, and unlike Xiaobao, he's full moon, but he's still a little black. It seems that you are in good hands during your pregnancy. ”
Mom walked in with a plate full of fruit, "Did you have any hardships during pregnancy?"She asked.
The younger brother and daughter-in-law listened to her mother's words and hurriedly put the small bed table away, "Mom, you obviously know that I didn't mean that." With you and Xiao Tao here, how could I be wronged. ”
You know, you're like my flesh growing on you. Anyone who is a mother understands this feeling. Mom said with a smile.
Alas, Mom, I know I may not have done well enough before, so don't be like us. Your eldest grandson misses you, so we brought him with us. ”
Okay, let's rest for a while. You go sit outside, have a chat, and eat some fruit. ”
Okay, Mom!The younger brother and daughter-in-law readily agreed and went out. Before leaving, he made a face at me.
After the door closed, I pointed to the door, and my mother smiled mysteriously, "They must have run out of money again." ”
After dinner, the younger brother and sister-in-law left with the child in their arms. Mom also called Dad **, confirmed her idea, and asked Dad to give them 2,000 yuan, for fear that they would treat the child badly.
My mother helped me take care of the children until the 100-day feast. During this time, my sister-in-law and younger brother came to the house many times, and each time they were very enthusiastic and spoke very likable.
After a few times, my mother resumed giving them 10,000 yuan of pocket money every month.
However, after her mom came home, something happened that was hard for her to accept.
One day, my mom came back from a restaurant outside and was resting on the couch.
My sister-in-law and my brother came over with the child in their arms, and my sister-in-law sat on the sofa opposite my mother, "Mom, we have something to discuss with you." ”
Is it that the money is out again?”
No, Mom. You see, I gave birth to the eldest grandson of our family, isn't this a continuation of our family's incense?This is a great joy in ancient times and in modern times. ”
And then what?"And then you think our pocket money should go up, right?”
You don't have to worry about any expenses, including the cost of the children, your father and I are responsible for it. I give you 10,000 a month, and I don't think it's enough?”
Oh, that's not enough for 10,000 yuan, even if you buy a bag. ”
10,000 yuan is not enough to buy a bag?Do you know how many days it will take to earn back this 10,000 yuan?How many people have to work for months to save 10,000 yuan?”
Alas, our family is different from others, so why don't you let Xiaotao go to the hotel directly. You and your father are also old, you can help us and my sister take care of the children, we give you 3,000 yuan a month as living expenses, do you think this is okay?”
Just kidding!Let's not talk about whether the hotel can be run by you, it was your father and I worked hard to get it. Why should we give it to you?!”
I provide you with food, shelter, and expenses every month, but you want to put the blame directly on us”
Mom, don't be so mean, Xiao Tao is your only son, and Xiao Bao is your only grandson. These things will belong to them after all, and whether they take it early or late, they will have to belong to them in the end. And the house will also be transferred to our name. ”
No way!”
Mom, if you don't agree, Xiaotao and I will leave with the child and never let you see your grandson. "
Xiaotao, do you also support this decision?"
Mom, we actually want to share this hotel with you as soon as possible, so that we can play with the children together and also let my sister have more time to take care of the children. "
Okay, okay, you've thought it through. "
We ask you not to agree, if you want to work like this, maybe we should move out. We will work our own to earn money and no longer need monthly support. "
Mom, are you really willing to give up your grandson?Aren't you worried that we won't let you see your grandson in the future?"The daughter-in-law continues to try to influence my decision with her grandson.
If they don't want to see me, I don't care, they can pack up and leave here with the kids. ”
Mom, please don't regret it. We're gone, and there may be no one to take care of you when you're old!”
We have enough funds to choose any nursing home. And we still have your sister, but you two are always unenterprising, and always have some unrealistic ideas. You can't count on it!”
After kicking his brother and his wife out of the house, Mom sat on the couch for a while, and then called Dad while crying, describing to him what had happened.
Dad was worried that Mom would get sick, so he immediately put down his work and hurried home.
It's okay, you're doing a great job. In their situation, even if the hotel is handed over to them, they will not be able to keep it. Instead of that, why don't we pay more, and when we can't do it, sell the hotel, and we can keep more money. ”
Mom's crying became louder, and Dad continued to comfort her, "Don't worry, they still have tens of thousands of dollars in their hands and a car worth more than 600,000 yuan." They're all already adults and won't starve. ”
At this time, the mobile phone kept coming with a message prompt sound.
Dad thought something was wrong with the company, so he picked up his phone and looked, but it was his younger brother and sister-in-law who were talking about his mother's bad things in the family group.
I was at home with my children, and I suddenly felt a mess in my mind when I looked at the information in the family group.
My brother-in-law said in the group that my mother and I bullied her, and her confinement was not finished, so my mother didn't care that she went to my house, and she didn't let her go to work in the hotel with her brother. Now for the sake of property, regardless of the feelings of his grandchildren, he kicked them out of the house, and declared in the group that he wanted to sever the mother-son relationship with his mother.
I read the message carefully and took the child to my mother's house.
When I arrived, I noticed that my mother's eyes were red and swollen with tears. I tried to hit my brother **, but he just hung up every time.
Dad said, "Don't pay attention to them, if you want to break off the relationship, you have to do it simply." No one is allowed to help them secretly. We used to be too tolerant of them, and now it's okay to let them go through some setbacks!In the past, we allowed him to go to the hotel to study, but he was always flirtatious, only thinking about being the boss and in charge of money, and never willing to engage in actual work. As the saying goes, 'a loving mother loses her children'. Maybe it would help them to face some challenges now. ”
Later, through my brother's friend, I learned that they had originally rented a house outside, but it didn't take long to spend all the money on hand.
In order to make a living, his younger brother found several jobs, but none of them made him happy. Later, they had to sell the car. The younger brother wanted to use part of the money to make a mortgage on the house, and the rest to start some small businesses, but the younger brother and daughter-in-law did not agree.
Every family has its own set of challenges. When I got married, my parents gave me 100,000 yuan as a dowry and a car worth 300,000 yuan. When their younger brother got married, their parents gave them 1 million yuan to buy real estate. However, they used the money to buy a car worth more than 600,000 yuan, and then used the rest of the money to go on a road trip.
When they came back, my mom asked my brother, "I haven't bought a house, are you going to live there?"
My sister-in-law snuggled up to my mother's arm and said, "Oh, Mom, our house is so spacious, why bother to buy a house outside?"Not only do you have to pay more strata fees, but it's not convenient for us to take care of you. ”
The matter about the house was put on hold. Later, my brother-in-law became pregnant, and my parents hurriedly prepared for their wedding. When I got married, my mother paid a bride price of 180,000 and a change of money of 20,000 yuan.
However, after the marriage, the younger brother's family was at the mercy of the child in his wife's arms. Not only did they not take care of my parents, but they asked the old couple to take care of them, and they would lose their temper if something didn't go their way.
Now, they even want all the property in the family, and even ask to sever the relationship.
When will my younger brother be able to appreciate his parents' intentions?I hope that he can bring his family back home to learn how his parents run the hotel and learn the skills of business management with peace of mind.
Do you have any suggestions to share on this matter?It is hoped that the above situation can be rephrased to avoid repetition, but the meaning of the content remains the same.
