In a quiet town, there lives a young couple named Li Ming and Xiaofang. They have been married for two years now and have been living happily ever after. However, with the news of Xiaofang's pregnancy, their lives began to change subtly.
Li Ming's mother, Xiaofang's mother-in-law, was a traditional Chinese woman who had always lived in the countryside and was not comfortable with city life. She has always believed that daughters-in-law should take care of their husbands and children at home instead of going out to work. Xiaofang, on the other hand, is an independent woman who hopes to continue to work and realize her worth before having children.
Before the child was born, the relationship between Xiaofang and her mother-in-law had become strained. The mother-in-law always complained that Xiaofang didn't care about the family and didn't take care of Li Ming, while Xiaofang thought that her mother-in-law was too traditional and didn't understand her choice. This conflict is exacerbated after the birth of the child.
Xiaofang gave birth to a lovely daughter named Xiaomei. However, with the arrival of Xiaomei, the contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has become more and more intensified. The mother-in-law thinks that Xiaofang has not fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother and is busy with work all day long, neglecting to take care of the children. Xiaofang, on the other hand, thinks that her mother-in-law is too strict and treats Xiaomei in a too traditional way, which is not conducive to Xiaomei's growth.
One night, Li Ming came home from work and found that the atmosphere at home was unusually dull. It turned out that the mother-in-law and Xiaofang had a fierce quarrel over Xiaomei's education and care. Li Ming stood in the middle, torn between a dilemma and not knowing how to mediate.
At this moment, Li Ming received a **, which turned out to be a call from an old friend of his. This friend told him that their company recently had a very important project that he needed to go back to work on. Li Ming hesitated, but finally decided to go back to work to solve the financial pressure on his family.
During the time when Li Ming left home, the conflict between his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became more and more serious. The mother-in-law thinks that Xiaofang does not know how to take care of the children, while Xiaofang thinks that the mother-in-law is too strict and treats Xiaomei in a way that is not conducive to her growth. The bickering between them never stopped.
However, after a quarrel, Xiaofang suddenly realized that the conflict between her and her mother-in-law was not actually a principled disagreement, but stemmed from mutual misunderstanding and lack of communication. She decided to take the initiative to communicate with her mother-in-law and try to resolve the conflict between them.
On a sunny afternoon, Xiaofang took Xiaomei to her mother-in-law's room. She knocked softly on the door and walked inside. Seeing her mother-in-law sitting on the bed basking in the sun leisurely, Xiaofang smiled and said, "Mom, I want to talk to you." ”
The mother-in-law raised her head and looked at Xiao Fang, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She nodded and motioned for Xiaofang to sit down. Then, Xiaofang began to tell her mother-in-law her heart, she admitted her past mistakes, expressed her willingness to correct them, and hoped that her mother-in-law would give her a chance.
The mother-in-law listened to Xiaofang's story, and the anger in her heart gradually subsided. She finally understood that her worries and dissatisfaction all along were due to her misunderstanding and lack of understanding of Xiaofang. She decided to put aside her prejudices and work together with Xiaofang to take care of Xiaomei.
Since then, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has gradually become harmonious. They began to understand each other, support each other, and work together for the happiness of the family. And this family, which was once full of contradictions, has finally regained its former warmth and happiness.
