A short-tempered mom? A money-grubbing dad? A humorous trio of women were sent to the 1960s by a leaky electric kettle, bringing with them a kitchen that could infinitely replicate food and a space...
After getting married, Zhang Xiaoli initially behaved like a good wife and mother, and gave birth to two children for Hu Xi. Seeing her daughter-in-law sincerely living with her son, his mother gradually accepted her.
Later, Hu Xi was often away on business, and Zhang Xiaoli sometimes found it difficult to care for the two children alone. This was especially true when the eldest son started elementary school and the second child started kindergarten. As a result, Zhang Xiaoli had no choice but to ask her mother to come over to help. Naturally, her mother had to bring her father, who was bedridden for years, and her younger sister, who was in middle school, along. Otherwise, there would be no one to look after them at home. Before long, everyone in Zhang Xiaoli's alley knew that she had become wealthy and had taken her parents away to enjoy a better life.
What about girls? A filial daughter finds a good husband and is equally filial to her own parents. Zhang Xiaoli has single-handedly raised the overall status of girls in her neighborhood. Many parents who favored boys over girls no longer regard girls as a waste of money and now treat them the same as boys.
In contrast, everyone was making fun of Hu Xi's family, saying that his wife didn't like him, that his parents had brought everyone back home to enjoy the good life, etc. These words were like surround sound, and Hu Xi's parents could often hear them at the entrance of the alley when they got off work.
Hu Xi's father was a very honest man. At first, Hu Xi's mother was angry when she heard the gossip and often helped her daughter-in-law to persuade her, but later she stopped trying to persuade her. The gossip gradually faded over time, but the scars in Hu Xi's parents' hearts grew deeper and deeper as time settled.
Later, Hu Xi's children graduated from junior high school, and Zhang Xiaoli's sister got married. At this time, Hu Xi bought three villas in a wealthy area, one for himself, one for his parents, and one for his mother-in-law's family.
Zhang Xiaoli's father can now walk around, go out to buy groceries, take a walk, and cook, and can even do simple housework like cooking, thanks to Hu Xi's expensive treatment over the years. Zhang Xiali bought all kinds of nutritional supplements for her parents to eat, so they don't have to worry about the old couple and the young people can't do that. Zhang Xiaoli also took over the marriage of her youngest daughter. The son-in-law's family conditions were not good, but Zhang Xiaoli's sister was very fond of him. She also kept saying that her brother-in-law was also poor and powerless before, but now her sister is just as happy. Zhang Jie's parents had no choice but to agree to the marriage, and Zhang Xiaoli privately gave her sister a small apartment as a wedding house.
At first, Hu Xi's parents didn't know about this and never thought much of it. They thought it was normal for their sister to get married, and the man would prepare a house, so they didn't have any suspicions at all. But Zhang Xiaoli had a showy mother who would show off in the alley when she came home. When people came home from get off work in the evening, the news spread throughout the neighborhood. Two months later, Hu Xi's parents came home to show off the old house, and they must have known about it.
This incident was the fuse, and the first family war broke out from this incident.
In the past, when Hu Xi supported Zhang Xiaoli's family, her parents were indeed grateful. But now, they are no longer like that. Their daughter was pregnant and gave birth to two boys for the Hu family. The whole Hu family should be grateful to them. What's wrong with supporting their own family? Raising sons is a way to support your old age. Daughters are also sons. If you don't support yourself, who will? The eldest daughter has money, so what's wrong with buying a house for the younger daughter to get married? I didn't ask your family to buy a villa for you, nor did I ask you to find a job for your son-in-law. It's just a small house.
