I had a fight with my husband over whose house I should go to for the Chinese New Year. It’s so annoying. It’s the first day of the new year.

After I got married to my husband, I would go to his house to celebrate the Chinese New Year every year. I also really want to go back to my parents’ home to celebrate the New Year. When I told my husband about this idea, what surprised me was that he didn’t object. This makes me ecstatic.

So I happily called my mother and said: "Mom, we have decided to go back to our home for the New Year this year." My mother was naturally very happy to hear what I said, but because she was worried that people would gossip if I didn’t go back to my husband’s house to celebrate the New Year (everyone who got married here will spend the New Year at her husband’s house), so my mother asked my husband and I to talk to my mother-in-law first. Say hello before making a decision. I asked my husband to call my father-in-law, because my father-in-law is always easy to talk to. If I call my mother-in-law directly, I think my mother-in-law will definitely not agree to my request.

Sure enough, after hearing what we said, my father-in-law decided to help us talk to our mother-in-law first. I'm anxiously waiting for my father-in-law's reply. After waiting for a long time, the call from my father-in-law came. He said on the phone: "Your mother still hopes that you can come back to our house for the New Year. She said that you only come back once a year. She wants to see the little baby and is looking forward to this time." We only meet once a year.” At that time, my husband spoke in a foreign voice, and the people nearby could hear it clearly. My husband and I fell silent at the same time.

After a long time, my husband spoke. He said: "How about we go back to our house to celebrate the New Year." I said: "But I have already told my mother that we will go back to my house this year." My husband said: "Didn't our mother also say that? I want you to ask my mother's opinion first. My mother agrees and then we can go to your house to celebrate the New Year." My husband said this and I got angry. I said, "Then let's go to whose house we celebrate the New Year today." Instead of comforting me, my husband added fuel to the fire and said, "Then I'll take the baby back to my house." I said angrily: "Why should I let you take her away? My mother also wants to see the baby."

The atmosphere became a little tense, and just then my mother called. I angrily told my mother what my father-in-law just said again. My mother asked me to go to his house with my husband to celebrate the New Year. The mother said: "No matter what, it is only natural that your mother-in-law wants to see her grandson. After all, they only meet once a year. Besides, I miss the baby. I can go to your place by car to see her. Your mother-in-law is illiterate and it is more difficult for her to travel by car than it is for me." . My mother’s words woke me up. Yes, I can’t be so selfish. In the end, I went back to her house with my husband to celebrate the New Year.

I finally understand why so many people say that my mother is a good person, because she is not only upright and does things well, I believe that with my mother’s reminders and on-demand messages, I will also be a competent daughter-in-law. of.
