It is said that it is fate that people meet and know each other. My husband and I are fate. I thought we could go to the end of time with him. Unfortunately, my mother-in-law and I have no fate. My marriage lasted only two years.
My husband and I met in the street. That day was my most embarrassing day. I interviewed for three jobs and failed. Just out of the interview building, high heels bullied me, and the heels fell off inexplicably.
In a rage, I ignored the image of a lady, walked barefoot with shoes in my hand, and called my friends while crossing the street to complain about my bad luck. I didn't notice the galloping electric bicycle and the loud cry of the owner.
When I realized it, I couldn't react. I closed my eyes and waited for the moment when I was hit. I waited for a few seconds without waiting for the pain. When I opened my eyes, a young-looking man grabbed my arm and pulled me aside in time. Two years later, he became my husband.
On the contrary, it scared the owner of the electric car enough to come back and accuse me: "Little girl, how dangerous it is not to look at passing the road." Maybe my bad mood reached a climax and my tears fell down. The master saw me crying, muttered that I didn't say anything, and rode away.
At that time, my husband had not left, so he took out a tissue and handed it to me, crying with me. Perhaps it was his enthusiastic behavior that made me feel warm in this strange city. I asked for his contact information in the name of thanks.
Later, we contacted each other every once in a while, and then became lovers. At that time, I had just graduated from college. My husband is three years older than me and came out to work two years earlier than me. In the process of getting along, I learned that his family is also rural. His parents divorced at an early age, and his mother raised him and his sister alone.

After we fell in love for two years, my mother-in-law urged us to get married. I think my husband is a warm man and will be a good husband and father after marriage. Despite my parents' opposition, I secretly got a certificate with my husband, but my parents had no choice but to agree to our marriage.
My parents don't want me to get married so soon, saying that we don't even have a house now, and it's not too late to get married until we buy a house, but I didn't listen. I firmly believe that we can buy a house soon.
Not long after marriage, my mother-in-law became seriously ill. After she got sick, my husband wanted her to move in with us. My husband told me emotionally about her mother-in-law's efforts over the years, and I was very moved by his filial piety and agreed to live with her.
We want our mother-in-law to settle down and support her old age. Before my mother-in-law came, my husband borrowed money to buy a second-hand house with a good location and good decoration.
Two months before my mother-in-law moved in, we got along very well. Slowly, the contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law appeared. The main source of the contradiction is that my mother-in-law thinks that I don't care about my family and often tells me whose woman doesn't do housework and serve the whole family after marriage.
My husband heard her mother-in-law's words and didn't speak for me in front of her. He just said his mother was old in front of me, which was nagging.
At this time, I discovered that although my husband is a warm man, he is a man with no opinion.

I want to pay off my mortgage early and change jobs after marriage. My salary is much higher than before, but overtime has become the norm and I can't eat together basically.
Sometimes I have to work overtime on weekends, and I really can't take care of things at home, but I understand that my mother-in-law does housework for us, giving her 3 thousand living expenses every month, and she doesn't forget to give her gifts every holiday.
I work hard for our small family, but my mother-in-law doesn't think so. She thinks that when I marry her son, I should put my family first and be a good wife and mother.
In the past two years of marriage, my mother-in-law secretly said that her mother-in-law is really blessed. Every day, in addition to taking her grandchildren and dancing in the square dance, her daughter-in-law arranges her home in perfect order. I pretended not to understand. In fact, I know that my mother-in-law has risen from disrespecting my family to disrespecting me for not having children.
Later, my mother-in-law said in front of her husband that she saw me having dinner with a man she didn't know, and that she often saw me being driven back. Everything my mother-in-law said is true, but I had dinner with someone for work and my female colleague sent me back.
Under the influence of her mother-in-law, her husband changed from disbelief at first to dubious. My mother-in-law took the opportunity to encourage her husband to divorce me and marry a family-oriented daughter-in-law.
My husband obediently asked me for a divorce. If two people in a marriage lose trust, there is no need to continue. I didn't stay, and I went through the divorce procedure the next day.

My husband bought a house, so I left innocently. Only half a year after our divorce, we heard that our ex-husband remarried and married a daughter-in-law who was satisfied with her former mother-in-law. She doesn't go to work, but waits on her daughter-in-law at home all day.
Half a year passed quickly, which is one year after our divorce. One day, when I was eating in the mall, I saw my ex-mother-in-law. She is actually mopping the floor. Then I saw her wearing a cleaner's uniform.
When my former mother-in-law saw me, she froze. I am completely different now than I was a year ago. At that time, I was reluctant to buy new clothes and bags to save money. I look fashionable now, unlike married people.
At this time, I have been promoted to department manager because of my work achievements, and my salary has also reached a big step. I'm still wondering if I should say hello to my ex-mother-in-law, who has turned away.
Later, I learned from others that the remarried wife of her ex-husband took care of her family, but she didn't go to work. She needs money to live everywhere, and the whole family depends on her ex-husband.
My former mother-in-law thinks this daughter-in-law doesn't make money, but her daughter-in-law is not as accommodating as me, but she forces her former mother-in-law to go out to work to make money.
Now I just feel lucky to leave such a baby boy who has no opinion and soft ears early.
