Xiao Yu, when you are full of food and wash the dishes, wipe the kitchen cupboard, it's so dirty. ”
Gu Yu's hand paused for cooking, and he raised his head from the bowl to answer his mother-in-law.
He glanced at his wife Lin Xiaowei, who was playing with his mobile phone while eating, and sighed softly.
Obviously, the two of them are eating together, but the mother-in-law will always ask Gu Yu to do housework.
He is a man, and he doesn't care if he does more or less, but he doesn't feel very comfortable in his heart, as if he is a servant of this family.
He ate quickly, he was full in three or two clicks, Lin Xiaowei was still slowly pulling the rice in the bowl, knowing that she would have to wait a while, he simply went to the bedroom to be busy for a while.
but received a call from his father.
It was said that Gu's mother was not in good health recently, and when she went to the hospital for examination, she said that she had some liver problems, and it was recommended to go to a big hospital for an examination to rule out the chance of liver cancer.
Gu Yu was a little nervous when he heard this.
Let his dad not panic, he will arrange it first, and take Gu's mother over in the next two days.
After finishing the incident, he walked out of the room and saw that Lin Xiaowei had eaten a full meal, sitting on the side and continuing to play with his mobile phone.
He put away the dishes and chopsticks and took them to the kitchen to be washed.
After coming out, he sat next to Lin Xiaowei: "Wife, I have something I want to discuss with you." ”
Lin Xiaowei didn't raise her head: "You say." ”
My mom isn't feeling well, and I want to take it to the city for a check-up. ”
When Lin Xiaowei heard this, she put down her mobile phone: "What's the problem with Mom?" ”
It was said that there was a problem with the liver, and the doctor in the county suggested coming to a big hospital for a check-up to rule out the chance of liver cancer. ”
Is it so serious? Lin Xiaowei frowned.
It's not sure yet, but I'll be relieved to check it out. He hesitated and spoke: "Wife, when the time comes, please tell your parents, my mother is coming." ”
Lin Xiaowei heard that it was not very serious, so she didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to take the mobile phone and swipe the small **.
If she wants to come, she can come, and she doesn't have to tell my parents. ”
When Gu Yu heard this, his face was happy: "Wife, you are really good." ”
Lin Xiaowei's mobile phone was a little confused, and she didn't hear what he said, and she was a little confused when she was praised for it, but she didn't care too much.
Gu Yu is so cautious because he is a son-in-law.
In this home, he always felt that he was not fitting in.
His father-in-law and mother-in-law didn't seem to like him very much, and he always felt like he was playing the role of a servant at home.
In fact, he also knew that his father-in-law and mother-in-law didn't think much of him.
His family is in the countryside, and his parents do not have regular jobs, nor do they have a retirement salary like his parents-in-law.
They didn't have any dignity.
Originally, Gu Yu was not inferior, his salary was okay, and his annual salary could be 250,000, which was three times Lin Xiaowei's salary.
But when it was really time to talk about marriage, he realized that the capital he was proud of was nothing more than this in the eyes of others.
His mother-in-law disliked that his family was too poor, and proposed that he must buy a house in the city to get married, and the location of the house should not be too bad, and the area should not be less than 150 square meters.
According to the mother-in-law's request, a house will cost 2 million at least.
He had to work for ten years without eating or drinking to get the full amount.
He thought of taking out a loan, but his parents-in-law disagreed, fearing that Lin Xiaowei would suffer with him.
With your salary, you took out a loan to buy a house, and the money was used to repay the loan, so what do you eat and what do you use? You can't live on Xiaowei's salary, it's okay for her salary to support herself, but she can't support her family at all. ”
is also, not to mention Lin Xiaowei's low salary, she spends money lavishly, and her parents-in-law will subsidize her money every month.
The daughter in the palm of her hand is naturally reluctant to let her suffer with her.
He retreated.
Lin Xiaowei disagreed with a handful of snot and tears.
He relented. But I can't afford to buy a house.
At a critical time, the parents-in-law proposed that it was not impossible to get married, and if they had a house, they could also do without a bride price, but there was one condition, Gu Yu wanted to be a son-in-law.
Gu Yu was a little embarrassed.
He is also an only child, and if he were to be a son-in-law, his parents would not agree.
But the mother-in-law said: "What can't you agree to, it's just to be a son-in-law, and I don't want you to sell yourself to our family, after getting married, your parents are still your parents, and you can still manage them." ”
And after Gu Yu's parents knew about this, they didn't object, they knew that they were incapable, and finally Gu Yu was able to get married, and they couldn't stop it.
In this way, Gu Yu became the son-in-law of the Lin family.
But the door-to-door son-in-law is not so easy to be.
After marriage, he and Lin Xiaowei lived with their parents-in-law.
This house is very large, 200 square meters of duplex, although they do not live on the first floor, they will inevitably stay together every day.
For Lin Xiaowei, there is no difference before and after marriage, but for Gu Yu, there is a big change.
His mother-in-law seems to be intent on cultivating him to be a good husband for twenty-four, not only does she take care of all the housework at home, but also asks him to be good to Lin Xiaowei.
Gu Yu actually had complaints.
He thinks that his home belongs to him and Lin Xiaowei, and he should not be the only one who pays it.
He has been resentful for a long time, but he hasn't complained.
And today, he proposed to let his mother come to the city to check and live at his parents-in-law's house, Lin Xiaowei agreed without saying a word, so that the resentment in his heart dissipated in an instant, and he felt that everything was worth it.
It's a pity that Gu Yu misunderstood the meaning of Lin Xiaowei's words.
Gu Yu deliberately took two days off to go to the countryside to pick up Gu's mother, and took her to a big hospital for a check-up, it was not liver cancer, but there was something wrong with the liver, and it would take a while.
After seeing the doctor, he took Gu's mother back to the Lin family.
The parents-in-law knew that Gu's mother would come, and they also bought vegetables to entertain them.
Mother-in-law's own cooking.
Gu Yu felt very comfortable, feeling that his mother-in-law had given him enough face, and his resentment towards her was gone.
After eating, several people chatted in the living room.
Lin Xiaowei picked up her mobile phone and said to Gu Yu after a frenzy: "I booked a nearby hotel for my mother and booked a luxury single room, thinking that she was not feeling well and could rest better." ”
Gu Yu, who was still laughing, instantly restrained his smile.
Do you let your mom stay in a hotel? ”
He was afraid that he had misheard.
With two floors and so many rooms at home, Lin Xiaowei would rather spend a few hundred yuan a night to let her mother live in a hotel than live at home.
yes, what's the problem. ”
Gu Yu stood up suddenly: "She is my mother, come to our house and let her live in a hotel!" ”
Gu Yu's attitude towards Lin Xiaowei made her mother-in-law very unhappy, she sat on the side, and her expression was indifferent: "The person who comes is a guest, the habit of our people in the city, the guests generally arrange to stay in the hotel, and we have a lot less trouble when they are comfortable." ”
Mom, how much trouble is it to make a quilt? If you find it troublesome, I'll lay the quilt myself. ”
The mother-in-law's face sank when she heard this.
The meaning of her words was clear enough, and it was clear that she didn't want Gu's mother to live here.
Gu's mother naturally understood her emotions, and hurriedly got up and stopped Gu Yu, who was about to go upstairs to lay the quilt: "Don't be so troublesome, just stay in a hotel, stay in a hotel, a few hundred yuan a night, my mother hasn't lived in it yet, I will take care of my daughter-in-law's blessing tonight, and I can go to live." ”
Gu Yu instantly felt sad.
Gu's mother is afraid that he will be caught in the middle and it will be difficult to do.
He wanted to say something, but was stopped by Gu's mother.
In the end, Gu Yu took Gu's mother to the hotel alone.
Lin Xiaowei was too cold and refused to come out at home.
Gu Yu's heart was cold.
He also felt that Lin Xiaowei was empathetic, so he happily agreed to Gu's mother to do the examination, it turned out that people didn't mean that at all!
They didn't want to care about this matter at all, so Gu's mother didn't have to tell her parents-in-law if she didn't come.
From then on, Gu Yu no longer went against the grain.
When his mother-in-law asked him to do housework again, he would pull Lin Xiaowei with him, and if his mother-in-law had an opinion, he would not be humble or arrogant to retort: "Since I form a small family with her, then I should not be the only one who is paying, she is also obliged to pay and build a small family." ”
The mother-in-law wanted to say something, but Gu Yu wouldn't listen to it again.
During that time, the atmosphere at home was solemn.
His parents-in-law never gave him a good look.
Gu Yu knew that he couldn't go on like this.
Although he is a door-to-door son-in-law, he also has self-esteem and dignity.
Being a door-to-door son-in-law does not mean that you are a nanny, and you can't have your own thoughts.
If you think so, then if a woman marries, she can use others as nannies, and can she be disrespectful?
Apparently not. He felt that since they were husband and wife, they should share the responsibilities of a small family.
Gu Yu decided to buy his own house and then move out.
He told Lin Xiaowei about it.
Although I can't afford to buy a big house of 150 square meters with my salary, I can still afford a loan of 100 square meters. ”
Lin Xiaowei didn't speak, nor did she agree or refuse.
turned his head and told his parents-in-law about it.
His mother-in-law sarcastically mocked him: "How can a small house of 100 square meters be enough to live?" When you got married, I said that you want at least 150 square meters of house, since you can't afford it, then we provide it, and you agreed, and now you have only lived for less than a year, you have to move out and buy a house by yourself, and you have to have a degree of regret! ”
I admit that I regretted it, and I couldn't afford to buy a 150-square-meter house, and it's really not authentic to move out now. But Mom, you also have to know that Xiaowei and I are married, and since we can't live with the older generation, we can move out.
Although I am a profit, I am not selling to your family. A married woman can't get along with her husband's parents, and she can buy a house by herself and move out to live, why can't I? ”
At the beginning, you couldn't afford to buy a house to get rich, but now you have made a repentance, I would have known that you were like this, and I didn't agree to Xiaowei marrying you at the beginning. ”
Gu Yu lowered his eyes: "My economic situation is also clear to my mother, if I really don't like me, I can divorce Xiaowei and never delay her." ”
The mother-in-law was speechless.
Gu Yu no longer ignored her, turned around and asked Lin Xiaowei if she would like to move out with her?
Lin Xiaowei hesitated.
Gu Yu understood, he no longer forced her, packed his luggage and moved out alone.
He is not optimistic about the house for the time being, so he can only rent a house to live in.
And Lin Xiaowei didn't chase after her.
I think I've already made a decision.
After all, it's a dream.
But he doesn't regret it.
For the rest of his life, he will work hard to make money to buy a house of his own, if he can meet the right her, he does not recommend buying it with her, he only hopes that in the next marriage, he can meet the person who is willing to work with him to survive the ups and downs.
