Chapter 1111 - On the Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Relationship

Nan ngyu did not dare to hope that her mother-in-law would treat her very well. She knew that although her mother-in-law was easily influenced, she had a kind heart and wouldn’t be too bad.

Gu Dongxing sighed, "Isn’t Minxing still at ho? If she really can’t get along with you, let her stay with Minxing in the future, and we’ll just give her Dragon Raising Money each month."

Nan ngyu suddenly looked up: Did he really think like this?

"Aren’t you afraid of being called unfilial?"

Gu Dongxing shook his head, "I have a career to pursue, and often take on tasks for the Folklore and Cultural Research Association, so I’m destined not to balance everything. I’m rarely able to co ho, let alone stay with her to take care of her.

It’s often said that many n marry in order to have soone take care of their parents, but I think, a man owes his parents a debt of gratitude, but a woman does not owe the man’s parents anything. If a woman chooses to show filial piety towards her man’s parents, it’s because of love for him, and she’s willing to extend that love to his parents. Therefore, a woman showing filial piety to her man’s parents should not be seen as an obligation. A man should be grateful to her for it.

Because a woman doesn’t owe anything to her man’s parents; what she owes more is to her own parents!

Like the two of us, you do not owe my mom anything. On the contrary, it’s my mom who owes you a favor.

All along, it’s my mom who has been creating issues, and you’ve been tolerating her. I can’t let you suffer by tolerating my mom indefinitely. So all I can say is, if you get along, live together; if not, live apart.

If my mom didn’t have other children, I would hire soone to take care of her, but since she has Minxing, naturally, it’s Minxing’s responsibility to take care of her. As for , I can only take care of her when I co ho, and in the anti, I can only provide financial support for her."

Nan ngyu looked at Gu Dongxing, surprised that he could consider her perspective in such a way.

Moreover, his ideas were quite progressive.

At this ti, the word "filial piety" was like a mountain pressing down on daughters-in-law, suffocating them.

It is said that a woman never has a ho of her own; her ho as a child is her birth family, and after marriage, her ho is her husband’s family. There’s never a ho of her own.

So, when a woman tends to her birth family, she is criticized for ignoring her husband’s family.

But in reality, who stands up for the won? From childhood to adulthood, it is their parents who raise them, while the mother-in-law has never raised her for even a day.

After marriage, a woman is expected to show filial piety to her husband’s parents but not to her own parents, which is incredibly cruel to won.

In reality, the relationship with a man’s parents was only established because of the man. In truth, what debt or obligation does she have towards them? What she truly owes is the debt of upbringing to her own parents.

So might say, the dowry given by the groom’s family to the bride’s family is akin to buying the bride back.

But in reality, the groom’s family gives the dowry, and the bride’s family provides the trousseau. These are rely forms of support from elders to juniors in forming a family. At most, it’s about who provides more support, not about who buys whom.

Of course, there are cases where the bride’s family keeps the dowry without providing a trousseau, or the groom’s family takes the bride’s trousseau upon marriage, but these are not mainstream. More commonly, the groom gives a dowry, and the bride not only returns it entirely but often adds quite a bit of her own dowry.

Hence, having daughters is sotis criticized as a loss!

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a centuries-old problem, primarily because the daughter-in-law owes nothing to the mother-in-law, yet society demands filial piety from the daughter-in-law to the mother-in-law, not recognizing the daughter-in-law’s filial duties toward her own parents!

When a daughter-in-law is negligent toward her mother-in-law or pays more attention to her own parents, she faces condemnation. n resent this, and even her children might resent her for being filial to her own parents, seeing them as outsiders.

But everyone forgets that this so-called "outside family" is the one who raised their wife (mother) from childhood!
