My mother-in-law is 73 years old, and she has been living with my father-in-law in her hometown. Now that the children have gone out to work, the two of them have lived alone for many years, and their lives are simple. My mother-in-law has always thought that when she is old, she can come to my house to care for the elderly, and our family is also welcome.
A few days ago, I suddenly received a ** from my father-in-law, he said:"Auntie, pack your luggage, let's go to Xiaoqian's house. "I immediately became excited and praised my father-in-law's decision:"Great!Mom must be happy. She wanted to come to our house so much, and now she can finally do it. "
I knew my mom must be very happy. Sure enough, I received my mother's *** that day She smiled from ear to ear, and her face was full of joy:"Sissi, my father-in-law said we were going to your house!I've been looking forward to this day for a long time, and I'm so happy to be reunited with your family!"
I was also very relieved to see my mother so excited. At this moment, I seemed to see my mother excitedly packing her belongings, imagining the future life with our family, and she must have planned all kinds of fun to come to our house a long time ago.
A few days later, I received a call from my mother, saying that they had arrived at the station by high-speed train. I was pleasantly surprised"Mom, you've worked hard, you must be very tired from taking the train for such a long journey. "
Mom smiled heartily:"I'm so happy to be able to come to my daughter's house, I'm not tired at all!"I heard the excitement in my mother's tone, and it seemed that I saw a happy smile on her face, and she must have been looking forward to this moment for a long time.
My husband and I welcomed my mother and father into our small home, and my mother was sincerely grateful for the care of our family, and we could finally live a happy old age. I saw my mother with a happy smile on her face, and she paced briskly, visiting every corner of our house, admiring the warmth and comfort of the house from time to time. My husband and I looked at each other and smiled, and my mother's happy appearance was our greatest happiness.
I could see that my mother was touched by our family's filial piety. She must have thought that she had worked hard all her life, and that her pension should be left to her daughter. In our old age, we take care of it, and it doesn't matter who the money is given to. Mom took the money with a trembling hand and a grateful expression on her face. She sighed softly and looked at us with watery eyes, as if she wanted to turn a lifetime of gratitude into tears.
But my husband and I both know that 1.73 million is too much for an old man. So my daughter softly dissuaded her mother:"Mom, you can keep the money yourself, we don't lack it. "I chimed in"Yes, Auntie, it is easy for us young people to earn money, so you can keep it for yourself. "
Mom understood our intentions in her heart, and also felt that it was indeed too extravagant for an old man to keep so much money. She handed the purse back and waved her hand to indicate that she didn't have to give it to herself. I saw my mother looking at us with satisfaction, and her eyes were shining, and she must have thought that we were very filial and amiable.
But my husband and I hope that my mother will keep the money and not shirk it. I persuaded again"Auntie, you can keep this money, you can buy whatever you want. We are not short of money to spend, we just want you to live comfortably in your old age. "My husband also expressed his thoughts again and again:"That's it, Auntie, the money is the same for everyone, we just hope that you will have a happy old age. "
Now my mother finally understood our good intentions. I saw her take the money bag again with red eyes, and my mother must have been moved by our love for her, and only thought about making the old man rich in his old age. Mom patted the back of our hands gently, her eyes filled with gratitude and love"Good boy, Mom knows. With you here, Mom already feels very happy and satisfied. "
That night, my mom came to me for a chat. She said with emotion"I originally thought that it would be enough for me to come to my daughter's house for food, shelter and accommodation when I was old, but I didn't expect you to give me so much money, I was so moved. Now that I'm old, I eat and sleep well, I have you to take care of me, and I have enough money to spend, I really feel very happy, and I don't lack anything. "
I held my mother's hand and said:"Mom, you raised us**, and you have worked hard for a lifetime. Now it's time for us to be filial to you and take care of you. It doesn't matter how much money you have, we just want you to be happy. "
Mom nodded, tears in her eyes:"I used to worry that I would become a burden when I got old, but I didn't expect to meet your filial mother's family. With you here, I really don't lack anything in this old bone. "
I am glad that my mother finally let go of her worries and accepted our care. Our family will stick together to make Mom's carefree old age. Seeing Mom living happily ever after in our home was the result we wanted most.
