The more I talk, the more rambling it gets.
Later on, Tang Sumei lost her composure and simply spoke whatever came to mind. She listened attentively and nodded in agreement from time to time. She had never had this kind of life experience in either of her two lives.
She was naturally happy to finally have someone to teach her.
"Yes, yes, you're right, Second Aunt."
"Yes, yes, yes,"
"Then, shouldn't you also have some skills?"
"Otherwise, if we argue, and I get angry and hit you, wouldn't it be easy for something serious to happen?"
Tang Sumei was in the middle of her enthusiastic speech when she heard this and suddenly didn't know what to say. After hesitating for a long time, she finally asked,
"No, why are you already thinking about arguing? We haven't even decided on a partner yet, and we haven't even started dating. Isn't it a bit much to be thinking about this already?"
Most young women are shy, hopeful, and expectant about married life, but she's the opposite. Before anything even happened, she brought up fighting first.
Simply scratch your head.
"No, that's not it. I just suddenly thought of this. Even if you get married, arguing is inevitable, isn't it?"
"......"
That's true. A little argument can be good for the relationship, but a big argument can hurt feelings.
Ultimately, marriage is a gamble.
Two people who have never met before and have had no connection for the past twenty years may get to know each other for a few days because of feelings, or simply because of an introduction by their parents, relatives and friends. If they are lucky, they can spend some time together and then form a new family.
To be honest, most of the time it's the woman who marries into the man's family. As you said, there are twenty or thirty people under one roof. It's not just about the couple living together, but also about taking care of the whole family. Whether you're working or going to a job, you can't escape it.
Actually, working a regular job would be better. By the way, Dandan, would you like to find a job?
If you have a job, you'll likely be less involved in household chores.
Of course, if two people can truly manage on their own, even if there are household chores, they will be limited. After all, a couple's life is much less troublesome without outside interference.
Without the interference of the in-laws, there are only two people in the house. In this kind of life, as long as the man listens and is ambitious, there is hope.
After saying that, I thought about it and realized I'd been a bit too pessimistic, so I quickly tried to backtrack.
"What I'm talking about is the worst-case scenario. It's more about the mindset of people like me who have been married for more than ten years or even longer. Over time, life wears us down, and we lose our passion and our edges. There are elderly people, children, endless housework, and complicated relationships with relatives. Sometimes, you get this feeling of 'annoyance'."
But let me tell you, marriage is both difficult and easy.
Who you marry, who you'll spend your life with, is the only person besides yourself who you need to focus on.
As long as he is of one mind with you, knows how to protect you, and the two of you support each other, life will always get better and better.
What I fear most is when someone is bullied but throws a tantrum incompetently, missing the point, or launches indiscriminate attacks. What good will that do? It only makes people think you're being unreasonable and irrational; it serves no purpose whatsoever.
If someone provokes you, just focus on the key points. Don't be afraid of the other party's unreasonable behavior. Even if they are alone, they always have a weakness. Just seize on the person or thing they care about.
For example, if an old lady likes her son and grandson, it's not nice for her to hit the old lady, and we're not in the right either. But if she makes you suffer an injustice once, her son and grandson should get beaten up once. Is that fair? As long as she's willing to do it, we're not afraid of what others will say.
Don't get entangled with them; it's a waste of time and breath. Just target what she cherishes most. At most three times, and I guarantee no one will dare mess with you again.
Jian Dan looked at Tang Sumei with admiration. She often used this kind of move when fighting and on missions, but she really had no experience using it in daily life.
She said she learned something.
"Second Aunt, you're amazing!"
Tang Sumei had long seen through it; Jian Dan didn't put her mind to such trivial matters and had no patience for them. If someone really provoked her, given her personality, she would probably take direct action.
However, in daily life, even if you are in the right, the kind of force that kills a wild boar with a single punch will only give others an opportunity to play the victim and gain sympathy. That's why I thought of taking this opportunity to bring it up so that my child can also know that brute force is not always the easiest way to get things done.
"Second Aunt, is this what they call a new broom sweeping clean?"
"Pretty much, it's more like establishing authority."
When a new bride marries into a family, both sides will openly or secretly compete, hoping to suppress the other. This is especially true for many mothers-in-law and sisters-in-law who have entered the family first. Unconsciously, they will have this sense of superiority, either ordering or exploiting the new bride, or simply testing her. If the new bride accepts everything, it will not be easy for her to turn the tables in the future.
However, if you can find a suitable opportunity to make a big scene at the beginning and show them that this new bride is not a pushover, they will naturally restrain themselves in the future.
Even if I want to scheme against you again in the future, I'll think twice before doing so, considering whether I can bear the consequences if you cause trouble again.
Jian Dan had never heard anyone talk to her about these mundane family matters and interpersonal relationships. In her mind, she had money and power, and she would fight anyone who disagreed with her.
As long as you have a strong fist, there is no problem that cannot be solved.
However, listening to Tang Sumei's words, she felt as if another line of thought had been opened up, and she felt quite eager to try it out.
"Second Aunt, isn't it great?"
