I had just come home from work that day, and when I opened the door, I saw my daughter and daughter-in-law arguing fiercely in the living room. I was very confused at the time because usually they were both very harmonious. I walked over to find out what was going on.
It turned out that my daughter borrowed a sum of money from me, but I didn't promise her. My daughter-in-law asked me for a large sum of money, and I agreed without saying a word. My daughter pointed at my nose and scolded me on the spot, saying that I was biased and unfair to her. I scratched my head and just said lightly, "I have a clear conscience." ”
Although the two of them no longer quarreled, the atmosphere in the house became a little awkward. I didn't know how to resolve this embarrassment, so I had to silently walk to the backyard and stare at the flowers and trees on the side.
Just then, my phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number, and I connected **, which turned out to be a distant relative I hadn't contacted for many years. He said he had a good business opportunity and needed a start-up capital and wanted me to support a little. I panicked for a while, because although I didn't have a lot of money, I didn't have a lot of money. I hesitated, but finally agreed.
Hung up**, I was a little irritable. I knew my daughter needed money, but I didn't want to break my promise. At this time, my daughter-in-law came over, patted me on the shoulder and said, "Mother-in-law, in fact, my daughter is just a little concerned that you don't give her money and give it to me." She's not really mad at you. Listening to her words, I felt a little better.
However, just as I was calming down a little, my daughter came over again. She looked at me and suddenly showed a bright smile: "I, I actually just wanted to pay you and my mother back as soon as possible, I didn't expect you to give so much to your daughter-in-law, I don't know how to speak." "Hearing what she said, my feelings were even more complicated. I hadn't thought about this before, I just felt that I had done a good thing for my daughter-in-law.
The conversation between my daughter and daughter-in-law put me in an unspeakable predicament. I'm afraid that I have acted partially in the family, and I can't care for my daughter-in-law as much as I do for my daughter, and I can't treat my daughter-in-law like I do for my daughter. This kind of family relationship makes me feel very difficult to let go.
I pondered whether I had really been out of balance in the family and had developed prejudice against my daughter and daughter-in-lawWhile I was agonizing over the issue, my phone rang. I took a look, and it turned out to be my daughter's call. My heart moved, and I quickly picked it up.
Dad, I was a little impulsive just now, I'm sorry. The daughter's voice came with a hint of apology in it.
Daughter, what are you wrong with?I asked.
I know that you are for our good in your heart, I shouldn't be so impulsive to be angry with you, you have been a kind-hearted person for so many years, how could I doubt you. "My daughter said it very sincerely.
When I heard my daughter's apology, I felt a little more comfortable. I comforted her and said, "Child, it's okay, it's all Dad's fault, I should think more about you." ”
* At the other end, the daughter choked up and said, "Dad, I really thank you so much, you are so good to our children." As she spoke, her daughter's voice trembled a little.
My heart softened and I was moved and said, "Son, Dad has not fulfilled all his responsibilities. ”
* The daughter comforted me and said, "Dad, you're enough, we know you've been working hard, you've been good enough for us." ”
Hung up**, my mood is exceptionally clear. My daughter's apology really touched me and I am willing to do more for her. But at this moment, I also began to think about my attitude towards my daughter-in-law. Am I good enough for her?Or did she perceive my partiality in her heart and became suspicious, so she changed her attitude towards me?
Just when I was feeling uneasy, something big happened in my home. My son had an accident while working in the field and needed a large amount of medical bills. It made me anxious and I didn't know who to turn to for help.
My daughter-in-law saw my trouble, came over, held my hand and said, "Mother-in-law, don't worry, my daughter and I will find a way together, and our family will definitely get through it." "My daughter-in-law's words made me feel very warm in my heart.
I nodded silently and looked at my daughter-in-law gratefully. Perhaps, in life, I once ignored her existence, but in this moment, she brought me endless hope. The troubles in my heart seem to have dissipated. As the saying goes, "sharpening a knife is not a mistake for a woodcutter", but at this time, understanding and support between family members is the most important. I hope my family can unite and get through this together.
