When I get married, I only think about being able to stay with the person I love forever. I will be determined and give everything I have, with my heart and eyes filled with only the man I love.
After getting married, I realized that marriage is not as simple as just loving each other.
When you are in sweet love, each other is the only one in the world, and each other is the only one you can think about and see.
But after getting married, everything is different.
After getting married, every day I have to face the repetitive and tedious life of daily necessities, as well as other family members from my husband's family.
The eldest sister-in-law is a very easy person to get along with. The eldest brother is a little standoffish, but he is not indifferent. He takes good care of her and Ayi.
If she could continue to live with her eldest brother and his wife, she wouldn't have to worry about anything and would even be happy about it. After all, her eldest sister-in-law took care of all the family's expenses and food, and was very tolerant and generous to the couple.
But from now on, my mother-in-law and two sisters-in-law will also move to Yucheng.
The suite, which was originally quite spacious, suddenly became cramped with the arrival of three adults.
She didn't dare face her sister-in-law and mother-in-law, because the only thing they had left was to engrave the words "disdain" and "contempt" on their foreheads. They would either ignore her or ridicule her, and most of the time they wouldn't even look her in the eye.
It seems that in their eyes, I am just an outsider.
Even though they had disagreed before, she had already married into the Gu family and married Ayi. She wondered how long they would treat her like this?
How nice it would be if my mother's home was right nearby, as close as my eldest sister-in-law's, and I could go there and stay for a day or two from time to time!
If your husband's family bullies you, you can go to their house and stay for a few days to relax and change the environment, which can somewhat relieve the boredom in your heart.
But her parents' home was too far away. It took more than half a month to send a telegram, and the phone calls were sometimes unresolved. Moreover, it took her parents at least two hours to walk to the post office to answer the phone.
Even if she felt aggrieved and wanted to talk to her family to vent, she had no way to do so. After all, every word on the telegram had to be charged, and one or two extra words of nonsense would cost several cents more.
As such, even if her life was not going well, she had to just force herself to swallow it, because even if her parents wanted to help her, they couldn't. It was better not to let them know so that they wouldn't worry.
In addition, my eldest sister-in-law's family is well-off, and she has a very rich fourth brother who built houses for all her brothers and sisters-in-law, and even her married sister has a share!
They are both daughters, and she is also a daughter loved by her parents, but the difference is very big.
When the Gu family sent the betrothal money, her parents' first reaction was to build two houses for their sons and did not leave a penny for her.
In the eyes of her family and villagers, a daughter who is married off is like water spilled, and everything in the family belongs to the son, while the daughter has no share at all.
Not only that, the betrothal money of a daughter when she gets married must belong to the family.
When her mother-in-law asked her if she had any dowry, she hesitated and dared not answer, and finally could only shake her head in shame.
She will always remember how terrifying her mother-in-law's fierce and disgusted look was!
I also remember that she mocked me at that time and said that even if marrying my eldest sister-in-law was a bad thing, the in-laws would not take the betrothal gifts and could turn it all into a dowry for me, and finally add a gold ring.
She could see that her daughter's status and the degree of importance she received in her husband's family depended on how greedy her parents were and how generous they were to their daughter.
Her parents' family always expected her to send some money to help the family. Fortunately, Ayi had lived in the mountains before, and knew that it was no problem for people there to be self-sufficient, but it was too difficult for them to earn money, so they quietly agreed to let her send five or ten yuan home every two months.
He also repeatedly warned his mother not to know about this, otherwise there would be a huge quarrel in the family.
Not only did my eldest sister-in-law's family not ask for her money, they also sent her gifts every now and then, and were even extremely generous - they gave her a piece of land to build a house!
The place was very spacious, as wide as six houses, with a yard in the front and an open space on the side. The best part was that it was only a short walk away from the shipyard!
When the sister-in-law wants to live with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, she can live there. If she doesn't want to live there anymore, she can move out at any time. Anyway, there is no shortage of escape routes, because her mother's family has built the escape route directly outside the house.
But she is different. She and Ayi can only rent a house, otherwise they have to look at the faces of their mother-in-law and sister-in-law every day.
As soon as this suggestion was made, the mother-in-law scolded them, saying that they did not know how to save money, did not know that renting a house costs money, and that they would have to buy an extra meal if they moved out, and they didn't know how much of the two people's salary would be left!
"Alas!" Thinking of this, Zhao Xiaoxing couldn't help but sigh uncomfortably: "Sister-in-law, I really envy you."
Chen Xingling paused, and understood the frustration and helplessness she felt at the moment.
"I envy you and Ayi for being able to move out early. Remember, you will spend your whole life with Ayi, not your sister-in-law or mother-in-law. Live a good life with him, and sooner or later you will be able to get rid of those annoying people."
The sisters-in-law are so old now, they will get married sooner or later in a few years. When they get married and have their own families, they will not have so much free time to take care of the affairs of their sisters-in-law.
If things go according to the story, Gu Xuan will eventually marry far away and won't come back for several years.
Gu Miao didn't marry too far away, and at first she often stayed at her parents' house for free food and drinks. Later, she gave birth to one child after another, and it was exhausting just to take care of and raise the children.
My mother-in-law is old too, and according to the records of the secretary, she can only live for a dozen years at most. I try to avoid her now, and when I can't avoid her, I just bear with it, and I will get rid of her sooner or later.
"Yeah." Zhao Xiaoxing nodded, but she was still worried in her heart.
Chen Xingling thought she was worried about Gu Yi's suspension, so he comforted her by saying that Gu Qi would go to help solve the problem the next day and there should be good news soon.
Zhao Xiaoxing's mood improved a little, and she went to bed after entering the house.
After entering the master bedroom, Chen Xingling checked his son on the crib first. Seeing that the little guy was sleeping soundly and sweating a little, he rolled the towel smaller to cover only his belly, and then went to bed and continued to sleep.
The next morning, Gu Qizhen came. His handsome face showed signs of fatigue and there were obvious circles under his eyes. It was obvious that he had been up all night.
"Brother, how is sister-in-law A Miao?" Zhao Xiaoxing asked with concern.
Gu Qi replied calmly, "It's fine. The fever has subsided. He's still on IV drip and should be able to be discharged in the evening."
Zhao Xiaoxing breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Gu Xuan and smiled.
"That's good... I'm glad you're alright."
Gu Xuan still had the same expressionless face as always, sitting coldly aside without giving her any response.
Zhao Xiaoxing clenched her hands helplessly and put away her smile in embarrassment.
"Brother, I-I'll serve you some porridge."
Gu Qi waved his hand and said, "No, I've already eaten. I need to wash my face, change clothes and go to work. Where are Xiao Xing, Xing'er and Xiao Huzi?"
Zhao Xiaoxing quickly replied: "Sister-in-law sent Xiaohu to kindergarten and then went to the construction site. Brother, Ayi and mom will stay at the hospital, right?"
"Yeah." Gu Qi nodded: "He stayed to help take care of it."
Gu Qi turned around and went to work.
Zhao Xiaoxing quickly cleaned up the dishes and wiped her hands.
"Ah Xuan, sister-in-law, I...I have to go to work. There is food and hot water in the kitchen. My sister-in-law and I were not able to come at noon, so you can make something for yourself."
Gu Xuan nodded coldly.
Seeing that she was shivering all over and her face showed a look of "don't come near me", Zhao Xiaoxing didn't dare to stay with her any longer. She closed the door and ran downstairs.
Why are these two sisters-in-law so weird!
One is unreasonable, with eyes on his head; the other is like a wooden man, arrogant and cold;
I'm so scared, I'd better move out as soon as possible.
I hope my sister-in-law can negotiate a rental deal tomorrow.
"Sister-in-law...it all depends on you!"
