Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are pregnant at the same time, who wants the child to be born, and the father and eldest son turn against each other
Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been a social problem, with endless contradictions and disputes. Differences in living habits and ways often deepen the contradictions between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law, and become a problem for generations after generations. To solve the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the key is that both parties must learn to think from each other's perspective and understand each other to reduce the occurrence of family conflicts. The story we are going to talk about below describes an experience of escalating from a conflict between a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law to a family conflict. In the story, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were pregnant at the same time, but unexpectedly, after the birth of the child, the father and the eldest son had irreconcilable conflicts.
During the Tang Dynasty, there was a family living in Pingjiang City, surnamed Yang. The male owner of the family is named Yang Danian, and his wife is named Li. The couple had only one son, named Yang Yu. When Yang reached the age of eighteen, Yang Danian and his wife Li arranged a wedding for him and married him to a girl named Ruhua from a neighboring village.
The story takes place in a peaceful village, and the Yang family is overjoyed because of their marriage. However, when the news of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's pregnancy spread, the family's peaceful life began to be in turmoil. After the birth of the child, the contradiction between his father Yang Danian and his eldest son Yang Mo quickly escalated and turned into an irreconcilable battle.
After two months, the good news came that she was pregnant. However, her mother-in-law, Lee, also announced that she was pregnant at this time. Li is in his forties, and it is indeed not easy to get pregnant at this age. Her pregnancy made Ruhua's situation even more difficult, and the father and son Yang Danian and Yang Mo lived a busy life every day, working in the fields and taking care of their wives.
The pregnancy of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law at the same time has become the focus of discussion in the village, and everyone has praised Yang Danian as both a father and a grandfather, which is really lucky. At first, Yang Danian was so happy to hear such a compliment, however, as his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became six months pregnant, Yang Danian's family's smiles became less and less.
When Li and Ruhua were six months pregnant, their bellies were bulging, which caused speculation among the people around them, who thought that they were both expecting a boy. After learning that she was pregnant with a boy, Ruhua was elated, but she didn't expect that her mother-in-law Li's behavior made this joy cloudy.
Ever since the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became pregnant, they have often worked together at home to make clothes for their soon-to-be-born child. Li saw that Ruhua's needlework skills were outstanding, so he specially instructed Ruhua to sew a few sets of clothes for her unborn brother-in-law. However, Li seemed to be afraid that Ruhua would feel reluctant, so he took away all the clothes that Ruhua had worked so hard to make. Ruhua saw her mother-in-law's excessive behavior, and she was angry that night.
Yang Mo noticed that his wife was unwell and quickly invited a doctor for treatment. It was only after the doctor left that he learned what his mother had done. Yang Mo thought that this was just a trivial matter, so he just advised his wife to be patient and not to worry about the Li family. However, he never imagined that his parents' behavior would become more and more excessive.
When Ruhua's parents learned that she was pregnant, they made a special trip to visit her and sent a beautiful gold longevity lock to their soon-to-be-born grandson. This longevity lock is exquisitely made and has a beautiful appearance. However, Li took a fancy to it at a glance, and as soon as Ruhua's parents left, Li quietly entered Ruhua's house and snatched the longevity lock.
After learning of this incident, Yang Mo rushed to the front of the Li family, trying to persuade him to return the key that symbolized longevity. However, the Li family resolutely refused to return it, and Yang Danian also stood on his wife's side, saying that the children born by the Li family are the elders, and the children under the peanuts are the younger generations, so if the children of Ruhua have any good things, they should be given to the children of the Li family.
Yang Danian's words were obviously biased in favor of his wife Li, which made Yang Mo feel extremely aggrieved, and almost made him unable to help it. For such unreasonable remarks, Ruhua has produced tire gas again and again. Although Yang Danian and his wife were so obviously partial to the young son who was about to be born, Yang Mo and Ruhua still chose to swallow their anger. However, unexpectedly, as Li and Ruhua gave birth to children respectively, Yang Danian's behavior caused the relationship between him and Yang Mo to deteriorate sharply, and finally turned against each other.
Li and Ruhua gave birth to a child almost on the same day. Li's child was named Yang Xin, and Yang Mo named his son Yang Ming. Due to Lee's advanced age and poor health, milk is limited. She asked Ruhua to feed her brother-in-law Yang Xin every day, and whenever Yang Xin felt hungry, Li would hold the child and force Ruhua to breastfeed. However, one person's milk simply cannot meet the needs of two children. As a result, Yang Xin eats a lot every day, while Ruhua's biological son Yang Ming often has an empty stomach, looks very thin, and often gets sick.
Faced with Yang Ming's condition, Yang Mo and Ruhua were distressed. In order to take care of her own son, Ruhua decided not to breastfeed Yang Xin anymore. In this regard, Li was very dissatisfied and tortured Ruhua verbally and physically, and Yang Danian was also involved. The couple beat Ruhua, causing her to bleed from her head and scarred all over her body.
Seeing his wife and children being bullied by their parents, Yang Mo had a fierce quarrel with Yang Danian, which led to the escalation of resentment between father and son, and finally turned against each other. In order to prevent his wife and children from being wronged again, Yang Mo resolutely decided to leave home with his family. After moving out of the house, Yang Mo and Ruhua's lives finally regained some tranquility, and Yang Danian and his wife thought that driving away the eldest son would create a better life for the younger son, but in fact they miscalculated.
Soon after giving birth to her child, Lee's health deteriorated due to lack of good care. When Yang Xin was three years old, Li died of illness. After Li's death, Yang Danian felt guilty and wanted to reconcile with Yang Yu and his wife to take care of the young Yang Xin together. However, Yang Mo and Ruhua were full of deep hatred for this father who had favored his younger son, and simply ignored his desire to make peace. Yang Danian could only take care of his youngest son alone, and his life became tight. He felt how wrong his decision had been, but it was too late to regret it.
