The mother-in-law is feudal and instills in her daughter the ancient ideas of three obedience and four virtues all day long
I wanted to reason with my mother-in-law, but my husband stopped me.
He said that his mother-in-law is old, and those of us who are juniors must follow her.
But one day, I found out that my young daughter was secretly bound to her feet.
In a fit of rage, I got into an argument with my daughter.
These are the essence left by the ancients, not the bad habits you said! 」
Women should be at home with their husbands and children, not like you and show up outside! 」
After being called to school by my daughter's homeroom teacher again, I finally couldn't help it.
Teacher, you have been asking about our family's family situation last time. 」
I wonder what you are calling me to come to school again? 」
I looked at the head teacher suspiciously.
I once inquired about my daughter's homeroom teacher, who was a top student who had just graduated.
In addition, the parents in the class have a very good evaluation of her, so I told her one by one last time she asked about the situation of our family.
I originally thought it was the homeroom teacher trying to get to know each student's family better.
But when I inquired, I found out that I was the only one who had been called to school.
Looking at the head teacher's somewhat ugly face, my heart sank slightly.
I used to read a lot of news on the Internet about gifting teachers.
I didn't expect that I used to scoff at it, but now the news is happening around me?
Just as I was thinking about whether to transfer my daughter to another school, the head teacher's voice pulled back my thoughts.
Recently, Cen Qingqing has often wandered away in class. 」
Not only that, but her face was also very ugly, especially when she walked. 」
Mother Cen, since there is only one daughter in the family, it is better not to treat the child too materially. 」
After listening to the words of the head teacher, my cheeks instantly turned red.
It's not because I'm ashamed, I'm angry!
No wonder the head teacher kept asking Cen Qingqing if she had an older brother or younger brother last time.
After getting a negative answer, he still asked me if I still wanted to have another son.
I'm so busy with my career that I'm so busy with my career, how can I have any other energy to have a baby.
Besides, although our family is not very rich and expensive, we will not treat our children harshly in small things.
However, the words of the head teacher still sounded a wake-up call for me.
In the past, when Cen Qingqing came home from school, she would always gather around me and talk about interesting things that happened at school.
But now when she comes home, she stays in her room and doesn't come out, and only goes out every day when she eats.
Even though we live under the same roof, we don't see each other very often.
The first thought in my mind was whether Cen Qingqing had encountered school violence at school.
The head teacher shook his head and patted his chest very responsibly to reassure.
This matter must have nothing to do with the school. 」
Qingqing is a good boy, and her classmates like her very much. 」
Ever since I noticed something strange about her, I have been secretly observing her every day. 」
When I learned that the reason might be at home, a candidate came to my mind.
My mother-in-law. But in front of the head teacher, I was still embarrassed to say it after all.
On the way home, I became more and more sure of my thoughts.
Cen Qingqing has not had an accident for so many years under my teaching.
But after her mother-in-law, who has been living in the countryside, came, Cen Qingqing's state became very poor.
In addition, the mother-in-law has been talking about wanting a grandson, which will definitely cause some psychological damage to Cen Qingqing.
Because I came back too early, my house was empty.
This also made it convenient for me to go to Cen Qingqing and her mother-in-law's room to look for clues.
But I searched for a long time, but I never found anything.
Could it be that it is really like what the head teacher said, because Cen Qingqing's shoes are small?
When I saw the shoe rack, I was furious.
At the same time, her mother-in-law also received Cen Qingqing and returned home with her husband one after another.
Mom, you are Qingqing's own grandmother, how can you abuse children? 」
I blamed mercilessly, which made everyone present change their faces.
Cen Qingqing pushed me away and limped back to the room.
I looked at her strange walking posture, and my eyes instantly turned red.
Isn't it just to give my daughter a good environment when I'm working hard to make money now?
But if my daughter's life is getting more and more difficult, won't it be contrary to my original intention?
When I turned around, my face turned completely cold.
I pointed to my daughter's pitifully small shoes on the shoe rack and sneered, Mom, you always mentioned anything at home before. 」
Could it be that you really want to recover the dregs of ancient times? 」
Qingqing is now in the fifth grade, but her current shoe size is clearly from kindergarten. 」
I asked myself, I've been good to you all these years, have you been so bad with your own granddaughter? 」
My words became more and more ugly, and my husband simply dragged me directly to the study.
And so it is again! Whenever I had any conflict with my mother-in-law, my husband would always drag me to the study.
As the name suggests, let me calm down.
I put up with the little things in the past, but when I thought of my daughter's strange walking posture, tears fell from my eyes.
It was a child I gave birth to in October, why should I be so badly abused by my mother-in-law.
The husband knew that this matter was his mother-in-law's fault, so he considered it and said, Mom didn't mean it, you shouldn't say it so ugly. 」
It wasn't easy ......for her to grow up with her pulling me alone」
The familiar words came out of her husband's mouth again.
I interrupted him without hesitation.
No matter how difficult it is for her, it is not a reason to bind Qingqing's feet. 」
If it hadn't been for Qingqing's homeroom teacher who found me today, I'm afraid I would still be kept in the dark. 」
I thought the problem was at school, but it turned out that the family had abused the child. 」
Thinking of my previous speculation about the head teacher, my face hurt hotly.
If she hadn't paid attention to Cen Qingqing, I'm afraid her life would have been ruined!
When I remembered that I had talked about the dangers of foot binding in a previous book, I was terrified for a while.
That's a brute that broke the child's feet!
Thinking of this, I looked at my husband even more firmly.
You told me before that your mom was going to stay here for a few days. 」
Now that she's lived there for more than half a year, shouldn't you send her back to the countryside? 」
The mother-in-law took a hard car from her hometown to this place by reason of wanting to see the child.
Before she came, she vowed to help us take care of the children.
But it wasn't until she stayed here that I suddenly understood that she had invited a big Buddha back.
When she cooks, she barely puts a few ribs in it only when her husband comes home.
Usually only when we are at home, there is very little diced meat.
When she went to the toilet, she didn't flush the toilet, saying that it would save water.
When it comes to washing clothes, she washes dark and light colors together.
Even if the clothes are washed and colored, she will say that it is to save us money.
And so on and so forth.
After getting along for more than half a year, I was so tired that I couldn't say anything.
But my husband and mother-in-law were full of red faces, and both of them gained a lot of weight.
My husband was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, and he shouted, how old is my mother, don't you still want me to drive her away? 」
If it weren't for my mom helping you take care of the kids these days, would you be so easy? 」
I'm telling you, I want my mom to go, no way! 」
That night, after I packed my luggage, I wanted to leave with Cen Qingqing.
To my surprise, she broke free of my hand and ran behind my mother-in-law to hide.
Cen Qingqing's face was pale, and her eyes were full of confusion and resistance to me.
Looking at her swollen feet, my heart ached so much.
Good daughter, will your mother take you to the hospital? 」
You must be having a hard time walking right now, right? By the time we got to the hospital, it was all right. 」
But no matter how I persuaded her, Cen Qingqing always stood behind her mother-in-law.
The look on the mother-in-law's face became more and more proud.
When my mother-in-law first arrived home, Cen Qingqing once told me that she was afraid of her mother-in-law.
Somehow, after only a few months, their relationship is better than mine.
But I know that I brought it all upon myself.
In the past, I didn't take Cen Qingqing's words to heart, thinking that my mother-in-law would never attack her granddaughter no matter what she did.
So I gave her to my mother-in-law without any burden.
He was so focused on his career that he paid less and less attention to his family.
I stood in front of Cen Qingqing stubbornly, tirelessly coaxing her.
Just as her hand finally let go, my husband stood in front of me.
He frowned, his eyes full of displeasure at me.
It's too late now, what are you still messing around? 」
Your stinky temper is long overdue, do you think we're all your subordinates? 」
My daughter is not sick, what are you taking her to the hospital for? 」
How could my mother bind her daughter's feet, I think you were deceived by the child's homeroom teacher. 」
Who knows if it was she who caused the influence, and in turn splashed my mother with dirty water. 」
I didn't even bother to give him a look.
What did Cen Qingqing's feet look like when they were swollen?
But anyone who has a heart, if you take a closer look, you will know that something is wrong.
You can never wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep.
Thinking of the dangers of foot binding that I had just found on the Internet, my worries intensified.
If I hadn't been in a hurry to take Cen Qingqing to the hospital, I would have really wanted to scold him for spurting blood.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, my husband thought that he had moved me, and his expression became arrogant.
Since it's nothing serious, let's go back to my room and go to sleep. 」
Looking at the three people in front of me who didn't eat oil and salt, I couldn't stop my temper.
I grabbed Cen Qingqing's arm forcefully, trying to take her out.
She panicked and bit my arm.
Looking at the blood gushing from my arm, my heart suddenly fell to the bottom.
The well-behaved and sensible daughter was raised crooked by her mother-in-law after all.
While I was stunned, Cen Qingqing limped back to the room.
The sound of the room locking was clearly heard in the living room.
Now I had no scruples and looked at my mother-in-law with hatred on my face.
You have to give me a reasonable explanation today, or I'll warn you about child abuse. 」
Foot binding is a bad habit, and I don't believe ......」
Before I could finish my sentence, I was interrupted by my husband angrily.
Who told you that your mother bound her daughter's feet, do you have proof? 」
Besides, if we really bind our feet, won't my daughter tell us? 」
If you don't want to stay in this house, get out of here! 」
I thought about it for a moment, but I put my luggage back.
The top priority is to take Cen Qingqing to the hospital.
Nothing else, it's out of my mind.
In the next few days, I specially asked for leave from the company and took Cen Qingqing to and from school every day.
Under my attack, her attitude towards me gradually softened.
Looking at her nervous face, I gently rubbed the top of her head.
This action made both of us freeze in place.
She turned her head unnaturally and whispered, Mom, let's hurry home, or Dad and Grandma will be in a hurry. 」
My heart sank, but I didn't say anything.
By the time we got home, there were only leftovers on the table.
Cen Qingqing's face did not change, and after putting down the schoolbag, she sat down to eat obediently.
She expertly sandwiched the food into the bowl as if it were meant to be.
My husband and mother-in-law were sitting in the living room watching TV, and after one look at us, they withdrew their gaze.
There were all kinds of snacks in front of them, but Cen Qingqing was eating leftovers alone.
The stark contrast crushed my last sanity.
I angrily rushed to the living room, pointed to the dining table and said, "The child is now at the age of growing up, so you will let her eat leftovers?" 」
Isn't it because if I hadn't bumped into me today, you would still have to hide it from me? 」
Isn't the family so poor that they can't open the pot, it's your turn to abuse children like this? 」
My daily hours at work are not stable, and overtime is a common occurrence.
So every time I get off work early, I tell my husband.
Unexpectedly, it was convenient for the mother-in-law to be yang and yin.
On the surface, she promised to take good care of Cen Qingqing, but in fact, she prepared leftovers for her daughter to eat when I was away.
Originally, I asked a client to eat out today.
I didn't expect that something suddenly happened at the customer's home, so I went to school to pick up Cen Qingqing from school.
The husband and mother-in-law thought that Cen Qingqing would take the bus home by herself, so they left the leftovers unscrupulously.
I was just standing at the entrance and replying to a message from a customer.
By mistake, I saw through the small actions of my husband and mother-in-law on weekdays.
Looking at Cen Qingqing's skillful movements, I don't have to think about it to know how my mother-in-law treats her on weekdays.
The mother-in-law still stiffened her neck and explained, what nonsense are you talking about, she is my own granddaughter, how could I deliberately leave leftovers for her? 」
Usually when you and my son go to work, I work hard to pull my granddaughter. 」
I didn't expect me to help and help the enemy, since that's the case, can I go? 」
Seeing my mother-in-law's sophistry until her expression was distorted, I hated to kick her out immediately.
Of course, she had a reason to deliberately tribulate Cen Qingqing.
She has always wanted a grandson, and on weekdays, Cen Qingqing's eyes are not eyes, and her nose is not her nose.
Isn't it ridiculous to talk about their previous family relationship now?
I still haven't been able to say these words.
But seeing that my husband was still silently playing with his mobile phone, I couldn't get angry.
I rushed forward in a fit of rage and threw his phone on the ground.
What else can you do at home all day besides playing with your phone? 」
Do you know how old your daughter is now? Have you tutored her in her homework? Do you know her hobbies? 」
She's your own daughter, and you're watching your mom feed her leftovers all day long? 」
There was deathly silence in the living room.
My husband finally set his eyes on me, but he never said a word.
As we silently confronted each other, a small figure suddenly rushed over.
You are not allowed to bully Dad and Grandma! 」
Cen Qingqing's face was irrepressible hatred.
I couldn't help but take a step back and look at her with some incomprehension.
Qingqing, I'm my mother, I'm helping you. 」
Eating leftovers, wrapping feet, and being coerced by patriarchal thinking every day......
The piles weighed me down.
But the hatred on her face did not seem to be fake, as if I were her enemy.
Suddenly, I looked at her feet with a blessed heart.
She looked very loose in the shoes I had bought so specially.
But there was a hint of bandage on it.
I took her shoes off without hesitation.
I saw that her feet were tightly wrapped in bandages.
My eyes were filled with tears, and I looked at Cen Qingqing in disbelief.
I've checked on you every day, but when did you put the bandage on again? 」
She dodged my gaze, and her whole body trembled and hid behind her husband.
Even though her face was full of fear, she still had the courage to say that my grandmother had told me that every girl had to bind her feet. 」
If you don't bind your feet, you can only be like you who can't even take care of your home all day long, and no one will like you. 」
I don't want to be like you. 」
A hint of pride flashed in my mother-in-law's eyes, and she looked at me gloatingly.
I know very well that my daughter's thinking has long been ingrained, and it is not something that can be corrected overnight.
So I unceremoniously pointed the finger at my mother-in-law.
When she first settled in the house, I sensed that something was wrong.
She is full of women who want three obedience and four virtues, and they must teach their husbands and children at home.
Joke, my monthly salary is three times that of my husband.
Most of the family's expenses fell on my head.
If I resigned, with my husband's thousands of dollars, my family would have drunk the northwest wind a long time ago, how could I give them the opportunity to show off their might?
I know that my husband has a strong personality, and for the sake of his poor self-esteem, I never took the initiative to mention it.
But now it's different.
The attitude of the two of them made me understand that blindly tolerating will only make others worse.
I sneered, Mom, since you are an excellent female representative in Qingqing's mouth, then why don't you wrap your feet? 」
What is the ability to coax a little girl with your simple knowledge? 」
Since you want to bind your feet so much, then I'll help you. 」
Seeing that I was going to move seriously, my husband stood directly in front of the two of us.
He grabbed me by the arm and tried to take me to the study to calm down.
This time, I didn't lower my eyebrows as before, and gave my husband a backhand slap.
It's a for a man to do your part. 」
My wife and mother had a conflict, and you didn't even dare to say a word, so you only dared to drag me to the study to talk about the truth. 」
I'm curious, you talk about your mother all day long, why don't I see how filial you are? 」
Or is your filial piety only reflected in preaching? 」
My words made the two of them turn pale, and my husband stared at me with an unkind expression.
My mother is right, with your temperament, who wants you but me? 」
If you don't apologize to your mom today, we'll both get divorced! 」
My husband looked at me triumphantly, as if he was sure that I would give in.
Waiting for them was my back as I turned away without mercy.
In order to win the custody of Cen Qingqing, I specially asked a senior lawyer friend.
But when she learned what I was coming from, she looked at me with a complicated expression.
I'm sure I'll help you get custody of your child. 」
But I hope you don't look at the present, but even more so later. 」
Judging by your description, your child has been poisoned, can you guarantee that she will treat you the same way in the future? 」
Her words slammed down on me like a stick.
I looked at her at a little bewilderment, not understanding why she was saying this.
She sighed and slowly recounted her past experiences.
I used to be like you, thinking that if I tried to persuade my child, she would return to the right path sooner or later. 」
But it turned out that I was wrong, she actually teamed up with my ex-husband to loot my property. 」
Not only that, but I also lost a couple of very important cases. 」
In fact, it was not only me, but many other people like me, who were stabbed by the people closest to me. 」
Your daughter may be different, but I hope you will think about it from my lesson. 」
When I came out of the lawyer's office, my mind was still in turmoil.
In the past, Cen Qingqing's actions were projected in my mind like a movie.
Reason tells me that maybe Cen Qingqing will betray me like she said.
But emotions tell me that maybe Cen Qingqing is different.
After a long time, an unformed plan slowly took shape.
When I got home, my home was filled with takeout boxes, and the smell of rot was spreading in the air.
Cen Qingqing stood in the middle, slowly cleaning up the garbage.
Because the movement was too slow, the mother-in-law's stern scolding came.
I didn't eat, I moved so slowly. 」
You can only have food after cleaning. 」
My mother-in-law had noticed my existence for a long time, and these words were deliberately said to me.
She's beating me, she's the one who is really in charge of this family.
I ignored her, but squatted in front of Cen Qingqing.
Qingqing, Mom and Dad are getting divorced, do you want to follow Mom? 」
Maybe mom will be dumber in taking care of you, but mom will learn. 」
As for your bad habits, your mother will accompany you to correct them slowly. 」
When she heard the bad habits, her mother-in-law's face changed significantly.
Noticing that her mother-in-law's mood was obviously low, Cen Qingqing did not hesitate to block in front of her mother-in-law.
You are talking nonsense! That's the essence handed down from ancient times, not the dross you say! 」
Women should be husbands and children at home, not out of the world like you! 」
The mother-in-law patted the top of Cen Qingqing's head with a smile and praised her for being well-spoken.
Cen Qingqing's originally tense body also relaxed at this moment.
Noticing the movements between them, I slowly had a guess in my heart.
Qingqing, if you follow your mother, your mother will guarantee that you will have whatever you want. 」
You won't be scared all day long like you are now. 」
My words clearly aroused Cen Qingqing's interest.
She cautiously glanced at her mother-in-law's not-so-good-looking face, but still firmly rejected me.
My mother-in-law thought that I would stay at home for the sake of Cen Qingqing's face as before.
In her imminent gaze, what she got was still the back of me leaving.
Now that I have made up my mind to leave this home, I will no longer be easily coerced.
That night, I received a call from my husband.
* On the other end, there was no more disdain in his voice.
Wife, do you really want to divorce me? 」
Qingqing is only how old she is now, can you bear to let her grow up in an incomplete family? 」
For the next half hour, he chattered and persuaded.
From our previous relationship to the current mutual ** interests.
When he saw that I was soft and hard and didn't eat, he was annoyed and said angrily, divorce is divorce, do you think whoever is divorced can't live? 」
When the words fell, he hung up in a hurry.
At the same time, I received a text message from Cen Qingqing.
Mom, I want to follow you. 」
My heart sank.
Even though I knew that Cen Qingqing might have been bewitched by my mother-in-law, I still went to pick her up.
I looked at my mother-in-law, who was not good-looking, with a smile.
I got the kid, but you can't live here. 」
This house is my pre-marital property, and since I'm going to get divorced, you should move out immediately. 」
When my husband returned, I threw the last of their mother and son's clothes in the hallway.
Seeing that the corridor was full of their clothes and daily necessities, my husband suddenly exploded.
Are you overdoing it! 」
This is our house for the two of us, why did you kick me out? 」
Under my watchful eye, my husband was defeated.
The house is my pre-marital property, and even if it goes to court, it is still my house.
At that time, my husband's family was poor, and his salary was even smaller.
If you want to buy a wedding house that belongs to the two of us, it is far away.
At my suggestion, I made the house that my family bought for me into a wedding house.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, my husband was ashamed to say that he wanted to take it for himself.
It's a dream.
I noticed that Cen Qingqing, who was standing next to me, wanted to go out to help her mother-in-law several times.
But when he met my gaze, he refused to move.
After a long time, my mother-in-law and husband packed up their things and left.
Before leaving, my mother-in-law glared at me viciously.
But when she fell on Cen Qingqing, Cen Qingqing lowered her eyes tremblingly and slowly returned to the room.
At noon the next day, I followed my previous memories and cooked a full table of meals according to Cen Qingqing's preferences.
But when I wanted to pick her up from school, the teacher told her.
Grape Slope Slope" knows.
