"Sister Jin Feng is so unlucky to have such an unreasonable mother-in-law!"
Wu Xiufen added, "Anyone who gets stuck with a mother-in-law like that is doomed for three lifetimes!"
Other military dependents chimed in, "When her daughter-in-law needed help, she chose to help her own daughter. Now that her grandson is all grown up, we don't know what she's doing here."
"Come here and wait to be served by your daughter-in-law! She used to serve her own daughter and grandson, and now she's the one waiting to be served by her daughter-in-law. It's disgusting!"
"Her daughter isn't human either. She uses her mother and then throws her away. What's the difference between that and throwing away garbage?"
Li Cuilan couldn't stand others speaking ill of her daughter, and her face darkened and became terrifying. "What nonsense are you spouting?"
"My daughter is not like that at all!"
Wu Xiufen asked, "Your daughter is so good, why doesn't she take care of you in your old age?"
"Did your daughter give you any money for your retirement when you came to the family compound this time?"
Li Cuilan was taken aback. Her daughter's life wasn't very good, so she definitely wasn't receiving any retirement allowance.
She has also invested a lot of money over the years.
However, she did all of this willingly; helping her daughter and seeing her daughter's family live well was her wish.
Some people took the opportunity to question, "You didn't give birth to your daughter-in-law, nor did you raise her. You didn't help her when she needed you, so why should she take care of you in your old age?"
"I've come to seek refuge with my son!" Li Cuilan said angrily!
“Your daughter-in-law has a share in this family compound. If your daughter-in-law doesn’t marry your son, he can only live in the single dormitory. How could you possibly have the opportunity to come and stay with him?” Wu Xiufen said clearly.
"Besides, your son is often away on missions. If you ever feel unwell in the future, won't you be waiting for your daughter-in-law to take care of you?" a young woman continued.
Li Cuilan disagreed, saying, "My son supports the family, so isn't it only natural for me, as his mother-in-law, to treat her as his daughter-in-law?"
"They work and earn money, why would they need your son to support them?"
"Nothing in this world is a given. If you're good to me, I'll be good to you; if you're not good to me, don't expect me to be good to you either. Isn't that the way mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law get along?"
"Don't be fooled by the fact that other people seem to be taken care of by their daughters-in-law when they get old. Those who tormented their daughters-in-law when they were young will be tormented by them in their old age."
"As far as I know, there are people who give their mothers-in-law urine and feces to drink when they are unable to move or speak!"
This statement was a bit harsh, but everyone who heard it felt relieved.
Li Cuilan was furious and embarrassed, "She dares!"
The military wives chuckled softly, "So you're scared now?"
"Hurry up and go home, pack your things, and go back to your good daughter to take care of you in your old age."
"You raised your daughter's grandson, surely your daughter wouldn't refuse to take care of you in your old age?"
Li Cuilan glared at everyone, "Of course my daughter is willing!"
“In our hometown, people rely on their sons and daughters-in-law to support their parents in old age. Who would expect a married daughter to support her in old age?”
Wu Xiufen couldn't stand it anymore, "Those who take care of their sons and daughters-in-law in their old age, they don't even go out of their way to help their married daughters take care of their grandchildren!"
"Whoever you help will be the main force to support you in your old age. The other children who don't help are just lending a hand. How can you be so shameless as to not contribute any money or effort, and now you come here expecting your daughter-in-law to serve you? Do you think they owe you anything?"
The military dependents present all had mothers-in-law, and they could empathize with this kind of mother-in-law/daughter-in-law problem. Therefore, they didn't hold back at all when teasing Li Cuilan.
They don't think their mothers-in-law have to help them take care of their children, but they can go to their sons and daughters for their old age, instead of them. They don't owe them anything!
