If that mother and daughter reconcile in the future, then Yue Jiuyue will be in a terrible situation, caught between the two sides.
Of course, Yue Jiuyue wasn't the type to gossip behind people's backs. After all, spoken words are the hardest to keep secret, and they might reach the ears of the person in question at any time. This would be like planting a time bomb for those who speak ill of others.
"But my mother doesn't care about any of that. She just keeps urging me to get pregnant. It's not like I can decide these things. As long as I'm not pregnant, she forces me to drink a herbal soup made from some folk remedy she got from who-knows-where. It tastes all over the place and it's awful!"
Wang Xiaoxue tearfully recounted that the same thing kept repeating itself: her own mother was pressuring her to give birth and had given her some folk remedies.
What can Yue Jiuyue do?
Listen to me!
Otherwise, her daughter-in-law might think she's impatient, and if she gets into a fight with Lin Chaobei, she'll be caught in the middle.
It's just a matter of offering a pair of ears; if you don't want to listen, just let it go in one ear and out the other.
Beside him, Lin Chaobei was also listening attentively. After all, this was his wife, and she was crying so miserably. If he just walked away and ignored her, he would definitely not have a good night.
Fortunately, Lin Chaobei wasn't a fool, but Yue Jiuyue suffered the consequences.
She was, after all, just a mother-in-law.
Lin Chaobei kept clasping his hands together, winking and pleading silently at Yue Jiuyue. Yue Jiuyue rolled her eyes and turned her back on this cheap son who had forgotten his mother now that he had a wife.
It's good that you know how to cherish your own wife.
Is it possible to sacrifice one's own mother for the sake of pampering one's wife?
After Wang Xiaoxue had finished crying, she felt embarrassed to look at Yue Jiuyue, whose dress was soaked, so she covered her face and snuggled into Lin Chaobei's arms.
Yue Jiuyue: (* ̄m ̄)
So, she was just a tool?
And the kind that you throw away after using it?
No, we need to kick him a couple more times!
How innocent was she? She gave up her ears to listen to Wang Xiaoxue nagging about all the bad things about her mother, and then gave up her clothes to wipe Wang Xiaoxue's tears and snot. Her butt was numb from sitting there, and her ears were ringing. She endured it all for the young couple. How could she be forced to eat dog food after she was done with her?
Yue Jiuyue waved her hand dismissively at Lin Chaobei, urging him to leave quickly and stop bothering this old woman.
So, everyone should just close their doors and live their own little lives. Why did she have to open the door? If she had just pretended to be asleep and couldn't hear anything, none of this would have happened.
Watching Lin Chaobei leave with the shy Wang Xiaoxue in his arms, Yue Jiuyue breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Before going to sleep, she vowed that she would never welcome the young couple to her place again until Wang Xiaoxue got pregnant, so as not to be used as a tool by the two of them again, and then discarded after use. That feeling was just too unpleasant.
The next morning, before she had even gotten out of bed or had a chance to give any instructions to the servants in the courtyard, Lin Chaobei arrived.
“Mother, Xiaoxue feels very sorry about what happened last night, but she's too embarrassed to come and apologize to you in person. So I'll say it for her: Mother, she's your daughter-in-law, and she's still young. If she does anything wrong in the future, please be more tolerant of her!”
Lin Chaobei waited until Yue Jiuyue got up before putting on a smiling face and speaking well of his wife.
"Fourth brother, it's only right for elders to be more tolerant of younger generations, but your wife has a conflict with her mother. You shouldn't come to me with this problem; I can't solve it."
I'm a mother-in-law. Mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law are not exactly natural enemies, but they're not exactly on good terms either. Why are you asking her to come over and talk to me about all sorts of random things?
Does she want me to persuade her to listen to her mother and take or drink those folk remedies as she pleases? Or does she want me to advise her to stay away from her mother and that folk remedies are not to be trusted?
Now, she's having a conflict with her mother because of a folk remedy, and I'm just stirring things up. What if they get back together after she gets pregnant? Wouldn't I be caught in the middle?
As my son and Xiaoxue's husband, please stop causing us mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflicts. You can treat your own wife well. Next time she has any grievances, please don't come over. If she just wants to find someone to confide in and cry, that's fine with you. Don't drag me into it.
"By the way, don't come here before your wife gets pregnant. Don't bother me with things that could easily offend someone. I've finally settled into a peaceful life, and I just want that peaceful life. I don't want any more trouble, and I can't afford to."
As the person at the very top of this family pyramid, Yue Jiuyue was unwilling to swallow her anger, not even for the sake of her son.
"mother……"
Lin Chaobei didn't expect Yue Jiuyue to react so strongly. In his mind, his mother-in-law was also his mother. What was wrong with a mother comforting her daughter-in-law? Wasn't that what she should do? Besides, he even came over to apologize on behalf of his wife.
What are your feelings for your mother-in-law?
Yue Jiuyue looked at Lin Chaobei and asked him.
It's easy to guess that Lin Chaobei was unhappy with what she had just said. After all, many people don't know how to put themselves in someone else's shoes. Before becoming a mother-in-law, Yue Jiuyue had never thought about how to avoid conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"Yes, it's my mother-in-law."
Lin Chaobei was puzzled. A mother-in-law is a mother-in-law, what kind of feelings could there be?
"Yes, she is your mother-in-law, and I am just Xiaoxue's mother-in-law. You can't treat your mother-in-law as your own mother, so why do you expect me to treat Xiaoxue as my own daughter? Her own mother will always be your mother-in-law. Even if she thinks her mother is bad now, I can never become her own mother."
