My husband works far away, so after giving birth, I went back to my husband's hometown to give birth, planning to stay there for only 1 month and then return to my parents' house. However, after only 2 weeks, someone came to visit my mother-in-law and told her that she had to try to earn money to "support her daughter-in-law" who had just given birth. After hearing that, all I wanted to do was take my baby and go straight to my parents' house.
My husband is in the army, working far from home. When I gave birth, he could only come home for a few days before going back to work.
My husband and I still rent a house in the city, so we decided to go back to the countryside to give birth. Like many other women, of course I wanted to go back to my parents' house to give birth.
My parents live alone in the countryside, are retired so they have a lot of free time to take care of me and my mother.
However, my husband's family is quite strict, requiring the daughter-in-law to return to her husband's family for a few months before being allowed to return to her parents' house.

I discussed with my husband that we would go back to my parents' house for about a month, after the baby's full month, then go back to my parents' house to spend the rest of my maternity leave until I go back to work.
But after only 2 weeks of being home, I heard my mother-in-law complaining about everything. Day or night, I was still the one who took care of the children, she only took care of 3 meals a day.
I came back for a month so I gave my mother-in-law 5 million to pay for groceries but she didn't take it.
My mother-in-law owns a small grocery store. Whenever someone comes in to buy something, she says, "You have to work hard to support your daughter-in-law during her confinement period." She often complains about the expense, but I give her money and she doesn't take it.
I felt extremely uncomfortable. I had only been home for a few days, but my mother-in-law was already upset, regretting the money, and complaining about having to "raise her daughter-in-law".
Since my mother-in-law doesn't have any money, I still order meat, fish, and food to be delivered every day. I also pay for all the baby's diapers and milk. I don't understand how she can tell everyone that she has to "support her daughter-in-law". I just want the month to end quickly so I can go back to my parents' house.
