The story is being shared widely on social networking platform Weibo.
A Hao (28 years old) and his wife My Hoa (23 years old) got married in 2022 after 1 year of dating, and were supported by both families. According to A Hao, because My Hoa's father passed away more than 10 years ago, she is the only child in the family so she does not want to be away from her mother.
The story between A Hao and his wife's mother-in-law attracted attention. Illustrative photo.
“Hearing my wife’s thoughts, I agreed to live with her. Actually, my family and I are very open-minded about this issue, so everything has been peaceful for the past two years. My mother-in-law is 45 years old this year, she is kind, helps my husband and I take care of our grandchildren and cook. In addition, she spends time every day managing two spas and living a chill life because she has a good economy,” said A Hao.
Everything seemed to be going smoothly until last April, when A Hao's mother-in-law, Mrs. Tan, remarried a man 5 years younger.
At first, her family and children objected, but after seeing Mrs. Tan's determined attitude, they agreed.
Moreover, the ancients also said: "A son taking care of his father is not as good as a wife taking care of her husband" . Maybe this man will be the right piece, making up for Mrs. Tan's loneliness over the years.
“This man has two children who are both in college. He rented a house, so after getting married, he moved in with Mrs. Tan and my husband and I. However, I still feel like he is not happy with me, and I have been uncomfortable these past few months.
During meals, he often asked my wife and I if we intended to live separately or work, how much we earn per month, and how we save,” A Hao said. However, he said he and his wife were not too concerned, just thinking that his stepfather was curious.
Until one day, he came home from working overtime at almost 12 o'clock, he saw the bathroom door was still lit but didn't pay much attention. However, because he was so hungry, he went to the kitchen to make a bowl of noodles to eat, about 10 minutes passed but still didn't see the bathroom door light on.
He walked over and knocked on the door, then heard his mother-in-law's voice coming from outside. She pushed the door open and walked out with a red face as if she had just cried.
A Hao asked what was wrong but his mother-in-law just said she had a stomachache. He didn't think much about it and went to brush his teeth and go to bed.
“However, in the following days, I occasionally saw my mother-in-law go to the bathroom, and sometimes I heard her crying clearly. Many times during the day, she just sat there absent-mindedly and looked much more haggard. I wondered what had happened, so I told my wife what I had seen. Coincidentally, she also realized that there was a problem,” A Hao recounted.
Finally, after many days of thinking, My Hoa decided to have a small talk with her mother. After a while, her mother softened and confessed that she was under pressure from her new husband.
This man did not agree with My Hoa and her husband living together while his two daughters still had to rent a room outside, thinking that this was unfair and uncomfortable.
Mrs. Tan was really in a dilemma, with her son on one side and her husband on the other, so she didn't know how to resolve the issue properly.
If she lets her children go out now, she will be accused of abandoning them for her husband; and if she still lets the children stay in the house, she and her husband will be tense and disagree.
That's why there were nights when I felt so sad that I had to sneak out of my husband's house and go to the bathroom to cry until my face turned red.
After discussing with each other, A Hao and his wife decided to move out to live separately. Illustrative photo.
Hearing her mother's story, My Hoa understood her feelings, because she now has her own family. "My wife came to discuss with me. We both decided to choose an apartment near the area where my mother lives so that we can occasionally visit and bring our grandchildren to visit her.
My wife and I proactively said we would move because our finances were stable, and my mother already had her own family so she wanted privacy and comfort. My mother-in-law also gave us some extra money to buy a house,” A Hao said.
He also said that he had told his wife to care more about her mother, talk to her often, and not let her suffer too much.
After the post was shared widely on social networks, it immediately received much attention from netizens. Many people praised the son-in-law and gave mixed opinions about the stepfather.
