A few days passed by in a hurry, and the weekend arrived.
The weather is getting colder day by day, and except for driving go-karts outside, several children spend most of their time in the indoor playground or heated swimming pool.
On Sunday morning, Xue Yang drove Wang Xiaoxiao here.
"Mom! Uncle Heng! Mom! Mom!"
As soon as we got off the bus, Xue Yang's loud voice rang out and he kept yelling.
Xue Ling heard her son's voice and rushed out quickly.
The second child, whom I haven't seen for a long time, has lost some weight, a lot thinner than in the video. He is still strong, but his chin is pointed, and his previously thick arms are obviously smaller.
"Mom!" Xue Yang rushed over and hugged Xue Ling tightly.
Wang Xiaoxiao, who was running from behind, was holding two big bags in each hand. When he saw this situation, he couldn't help but stop and smiled with joy and embarrassment.
"……mom."
She was a little uneasy and a little timid about being close to home.
Maybe it was because she spoke too harshly and unfeelingly on the phone before. When I saw my mother-in-law at this moment, I couldn't help but feel embarrassed secretly.
Xue Ling slapped her son on the back, then stretched out her hand to Wang Xiaoxiao, showing a loving and joyful smile.
"Come here quickly! Let mom take a good look!"
Wang Xiaoxiao laughed and ran over.
Xue Ling looked at her and said softly, "I have lost a little weight, but my face is better than before."
"I've lost weight too!"
Xue Ling glanced at him, smiled and asked his daughter-in-law: "There are still three or four days until the quarantine is lifted, why did you come so soon?"
Wang Xiaoxiao held Xue Ling's hand and replied: "I can't help it, I miss you so much. I heard from my eldest brother that your nucleic acid tests have always been negative, and you have been in semi-isolation before, so there is no need to worry at all. We have recently
Running around all day long, it’s us who have to worry.”
Xue Yang echoed: "If it weren't for my brother's refusal, we would have come here a long time ago. I heard that Brother Duoduo moved here with his children, and I couldn't help but want to come. But my brother said that it was too small to live here, so let us
Don’t come.”
Having said this, he looked around and suddenly realized that he had been deceived.
"Oh my god! Why is this place so small? How come we can't live in it? I should have suspected it a long time ago! How could a separate courtyard with an indoor and outdoor playground not be able to accommodate the two of us!"
Xue Ling sneered: "There is nothing you can do, you have offended too many people. Your brother doesn't want to see you, so of course he doesn't want you to come over so quickly!"
Xue Yang felt extremely wronged and acted coquettishly: "Mom~~ I already knew I was wrong!"
Wang Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed and whispered: "Mom, I'm sorry... we made you too worried before. Originally, the two of us were at odds, and we shouldn't have let you know that we were worried -"
"It's all over." Xue Ling smiled lovingly and interrupted her: "Don't mention the past. How can a couple not quarrel? Just explain the misunderstanding clearly, let go of the past, and continue to live a good life."
"Thank you, Mom." Wang Xiaoxiao's eyes were red and she choked with sobs: "...Thank you for your understanding."
Xue Ling patted the back of her hand, smiled and changed the subject.
"The children miss you very much. They are at the swimming pool right now, and Ran Ran and the nanny are with them. Come on, I will take you there."
Xue Yang walked quickly and ran forward happily.
"Baby! My baby! Daddy is here! Daddy and Mommy are here to pick you up!"
Wang Xiaoxiao looked at Xue Yang's running figure and smiled unconsciously.
"In the past few days, he has even dreamed of coming here... He also bought a lot of toys and clothes for the children, as well as several parent-child outfits."
Xue Ling held her hand and said warmly: "I don't think he is outstanding, but he is definitely a good father who loves his children. After how many years you have been married, he will learn to be a husband. I know that he has a carefree temper, even if he is in his heart
He cares about you the most, but his style of doing things is too rough and careless, and he will inevitably ignore your feelings. Give him some time, and give yourself some time. If he does something wrong, you can tell us directly and let us help.
You scold him and correct him."
A daughter-in-law is not a daughter. If she were her own daughter, she could scold her as she pleased, but a daughter-in-law cannot.
A daughter-in-law is first of all someone else's daughter, a family member who comes into the house halfway. She can only love her, but cannot blame or scold her.
Even if she doesn't agree with her actions in her heart, Xue Ling will not express it directly. No matter what the young couple did wrong, she must educate her son first, not her daughter-in-law.
Even if she had opinions about her daughter-in-law, Xue Ling would quietly start with her son instead of telling her daughter-in-law directly.
The daughter-in-law has only been married into the family for a few years. Although she calls her "Mom", it is by no means a deep mother-daughter relationship. She can love her daughter-in-law as a "daughter", but she must not treat her as a "daughter".
"lesson.
In short, when her daughter-in-law had a quarrel with her son, she would only teach her son a lesson. If her daughter had a quarrel with her son-in-law, she would only teach her daughter a lesson.
There may be exceptions, but Xue Ling will not change the main principle, and will always insist on what should be insisted on.
"...Thank you, Mom." Wang Xiaoxiao's tears fell, "I-I actually made a lot of mistakes. My mother is right. When I get angry, I only care about myself and don't think much about Yangyang. He is alone.
It was so hard to start a business again. Not only did I not encourage and support him by his side, but I also acted petty and even mistrusted him. I...I also have many things wrong with me, so I can't blame him for everything. Mom,
Don't say that...the more you say it, the more guilty I feel."
"It's okay, it's okay." Xue Ling chuckled and reassured: "You don't have to feel guilty, it was his fault first."
Wang Xiaoxiao lowered his head and apologized in a low voice: "When I was angry... what I said was very unpleasant. Mom, please forgive me, don't take it to heart."
"I have forgotten it a long time ago."
When we are quarreling, how can we say a lot of nice things, but naturally we will curse and hate each other, and then all kinds of threats and all kinds of things that require divorce.
She has lived so long that she cannot understand this truth.
If she had to worry about this with her juniors, even if she had nine lives like a cat, it wouldn't be enough.
Wang Xiaoxiao was very grateful and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Mom, thank you... My mom and dad kept praising you for being the most reasonable and good mother-in-law. They said that I was lucky enough to meet a good family with such a harmonious atmosphere. I was so troubled... but you only cared about me.
, not a single word of reproach... He even sent people to look for me while he was far abroad, to understand me and comfort me."
