Wen Hongyu was unwilling to resign and insisted on going to work every day. Although Zhang Ming was worried, he still chose to accommodate.
I just became more considerate to my wife. She was picked up and dropped off every day no matter the wind or rain.
Colleagues in the sales department, who doesn’t envy Wen Hongyu?
Until one day when she got off work, she saw her mother-in-law Wang Suxia at home.
The woman who drove her crazy with the kindest face.
In order to take care of her and the child in her belly, her mother-in-law quit her job and moved in.
Wen Hongyu was really touched at first. Although there were some things about her mother-in-law that she didn't like, she could understand it.
For example, when her husband was helping her wash her clothes, he would take them away from her, which made Wen Hongyu a little embarrassed.
Then the mother-in-law did not allow them to sleep with the door closed because she would come into the room to help them cover themselves with quilts several times in the middle of the night...
Then when she saw her husband doing housework, she happily took over and said, "Oh, let mom do it! How can you men do housework?"
When your damn dad was alive, I wouldn't even let him touch the broom. It was already hard enough for him to work outside. How could I bear to let him go home and still work?
If he is still alive, I will serve him forever! Anyway, your mother and I are used to working in this life.
Why did he leave so early! Mom misses him!"
The mother-in-law wiped her tears while sweeping the floor, and her anxious husband kept comforting her beside her.
Wen Hongyu felt a little sorry. She endured the pain from a day's work and got up. She took the broom and said, "Husband, you go back to the room with mom to rest. I'll just come here."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, wife."
However, when her husband helped her mother-in-law into the room, Wen Hongyu straightened her back. The moment she raised her head, she discovered that her mother-in-law was staring at her fiercely.
The full malice made her feel scared, but she felt it was impossible.
…………
In the days that followed, my mother-in-law went even further.
First, she was forced to resign.
Just because her mother-in-law was delivering food and soup to the company because she was worried about her, she accidentally fell down.
After returning home, Zhang Ming begged her to quit her job. One was his mother and the other was his wife. Both of them were working so hard. As a man, he felt very sorry for her.
Wen Hongyu was reluctant, but still agreed...
After all, her husband and mother-in-law care about her.
It was not until later that Wen Hongyu realized that her mother-in-law had done it on purpose, but at this time she had been tortured to the point of going crazy.
Since she resigned and stayed home, she obviously mopped the floor, cooked and hung out the clothes in the morning.
When Zhang Ming came home in the evening, her mother-in-law was mopping the floor with her painful waist, sweating profusely.
That night, for the first time, her husband became a little dissatisfied with her, "Honey, you don't have to go to work now. Mom is not in good health. You can help with the housework to some extent...Thank you for your hard work."
"
"But... I have already finished my housework in the morning, and I only started to rest in the afternoon." Wen Hongyu's face was full of bitterness.
"That's impossible. Mom is at home, and she definitely won't want you to work. I don't blame you, wife, I just think... our mother is not in good health, so you should be more considerate of her.
The doctor has also said that proper exercise can help with childbirth, so just choose something easy to do, that kind of heavy work, and save it for when I come back from get off work!"
Zhang Ming's first reaction was that he didn't believe it. To be honest, who would believe that a mother-in-law would deliberately frame her pregnant daughter-in-law.
Even Wen Hongyu couldn't figure it out.
The next day, she was more thoughtful. After finishing her housework, she sat on the sofa the whole time and didn't even take her lunch break.
Whenever I see my mother-in-law doing anything, she rushes to do it.
Soak your feet in water, hang clothes to dry, wipe the table, clean the bathroom...
The place that was obviously very clean was cleaned again.
Wen Hongyu was so tired that she couldn't straighten her waist, and there was still a feeling of swelling in her lower abdomen, so she could only go back to her room to rest.
When she was woken up again, she was faced with her husband's somewhat angry face. He asked with a questioning tone: "Did you know that mom fainted in the room? Fortunately, you can still sleep.
I said it all! Don't let her work! The bathroom was painted and the floor was reflective. The doctor said she fainted due to hypoglycemia and should not be overworked.
Wife, I’m begging you! You don’t have to do any of this work, just watch her and don’t let her do the work. Can you let me do it when I come back from get off work in the evening?”
"I..." Wen Hongyu felt that she was really suffering and couldn't express her pain.
She was the one who almost fainted from exhaustion, okay?
However, Zhang Ming didn't believe her explanation at all. He said that he knew his mother! She was a person who couldn't rest for a moment. She felt sorry for her children and wanted to help them put food into their mouths.
In the end, he advised her to treat his mother better. Although his mother may have a lot of things to do and is a bit annoying, she has a good heart.
What he said was that he hoped that his wife would not dislike her mother for being uneducated and used to living in poverty.
This made Wen Hongyu feel bitter, so in his eyes, his wife was this kind of person, right?
In addition, she was in the early stages of pregnancy and had great emotional ups and downs. That night was the first time she cried after her marriage.
The scariest thing was that I cried until midnight, while my husband fell asleep next to me, and there was a twisting sound from the doorknob of the room.
Wen Hongyu immediately pretended to fall asleep.
…………
When she heard the footsteps getting closer, her heart was lifted.
Fortunately, the visitor did not come to her side, but sat down next to her husband.
The husband suddenly turned over, muttered, "Wife, don't touch her," and then fell asleep.
So her mother-in-law came to their room late at night and touched her husband? Wen Hongyu felt as if she knew something, and her heartbeat accelerated.
It wasn't until she heard the door closing that she breathed a sigh of relief and slowly opened her eyes...
But he saw a woman standing in front of the window, smiling meaningfully at her.
"ah!!!"
The scream woke up Zhang Ming, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
After turning on the light, the mother-in-law standing in front of the window said with a nervous and aggrieved face: "Mom just saw that Xiaoyu's quilt was not covered properly, so she wanted to help her cover it. The air conditioner is on, in case she catches a cold..."
Zhang Ming breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a mistake. The scream scared him to death. "It turned out to be mom!"
He hugged Wen Hongyu and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, honey, it's our mother! Mom, please leave us alone at night and have a good rest. We are all adults, how can we kick the quilt off! Go back to the house and sleep."
"Okay, I'm sorry Xiaoyu, mom didn't mean to scare you, don't be angry with mom! Mom will leave now."
Anyone who sees that look of grievance and self-blame will think that this daughter-in-law is too difficult to get along with.
Wen Hongyu was speechless again. She wanted to refute, no...she was not here to cover herself with a quilt.
But no one would believe that they were the mother and the child, and she was just an outsider who had only joined the family for less than a year.
