breakfast……
She had been sitting alone in the dark living room for almost two hours. Because of the work relationship, I have always been used to getting up at six o'clock. The children also have a very fixed schedule. Even on holidays, they go to bed at nine and wake up at seven. An hour ago, when the two children woke up and were playing in the game room, the middle daughter came over and said, "I'm so hungry."
She replied casually, "I see." She still had to sit in the living room and wait.
What are you waiting for? Waiting for my in-laws to buy breakfast. Her in-laws get up earlier than her, go to exercise before dawn, and come back with breakfast after exercising. Before, she couldn't wait, and took her two children to the breakfast shop for breakfast. When she came back, her parents-in-law's face was not very good.
My husband doesn't take it seriously either, saying that my mother has prepared it, isn't it a waste of time!
My husband is still lying on the bed and sleeping soundly. She can't sleep. Sitting in the living room, she flips through advertisements, swipes her phone, and wants to watch a TV. But my husband's house has two or three TV remotes, and she presses the button for each one. Over and over, just can't turn on the TV.
Helplessly put it back on the remote control. This time, my son is here: "I'm hungry, when can I have breakfast?"
"When Grandpa comes back."
"When will grandpa come back?"
"I do not know either."
The meal time of my husband's family is very irregular. Sometimes the meal is prepared on the table after seven o'clock. Sometimes, like today, it is past eight o'clock and no one is seen. At this time, there was a door opening from outside. Finally back!
"Breakfast!" Father-in-law put two or three bags of breakfast on the table. "There are steamed buns and scallion pancakes, you can take them yourself depending on what you want to eat."
Because the steamed buns were all meat buns, she picked up a greasy scallion pancake and started eating. The two children also took the buns and scallion pancakes to eat. After a while, the mother-in-law brought a few cups of warm five-grain pulp, "This is very healthy, I want to drink it!" Knowing that she would not drink it, the mother-in-law put the cup directly in front of the two children.
After breakfast, my husband also got up and sat on the sofa with his head sullen while playing with his mobile phone. The buns and grain pulp on the table were already cold, so he slowly picked it up and bit it.
She remembered how they had a falling out over breakfast before—
That time, my mother-in-law took the cake that I didn't eat the day before and said, "Is it okay to have this for breakfast?" Of course, she replied angrily, "No, let's go out to eat by ourselves." The mother-in-law was helpless and murmured: "Ah, what else are you going to eat!" Then he turned to his son and asked, "Do you want to eat this?" The husband also replied helplessly, "I don't know either."
Later, my husband took the family of four out for breakfast, but the atmosphere was very rigid.
"Is this necessary? My mother is also kind, not eating is not a waste!"
"I also think it's necessary for your mother to do this. She obviously doesn't have anything to eat. I'm also kind enough to eat out without spending her money. How old is the child, wouldn't it be too exaggerated to have cake for breakfast in the morning!"
"Anyway, you have an opinion on how to do it!"
"..." Her husband's words blocked her, so she didn't know how to answer, she could only nibble on the sandwich without knowing the taste. What did she do wrong? She just wants to have a good breakfast, why should she be regarded as a sinner?
Returning to my in-laws' house after breakfast, the atmosphere continued to be dull. The way her husband and her in-laws looked at her made her feel resentful. She walked out the door with her young son, and left, "Let's go for a walk."
Just as she walked out of the door, her tears began to fall. She was unfamiliar with her husband's family, so she could only walk along the road she was familiar with. If she could, she would really like to take a ride home with her child.
After walking around for about two hours, her husband called. When she pressed the answer button, she was still full of anticipation: "Hello?"
"Where are you going? My dad said he would take us to play."
"I'm not going!" she said and hung up. The father-in-law was really enthusiastic, and even when they were on their honeymoon, he eagerly suggested to take them to play. At that time, her husband knew to refuse, and she missed the husband who knew how to refuse...
After breakfast, she continued to sit in the living room dumbfounded.
When my mother-in-law came home, she was almost always busy in the kitchen. She didn't know what her mother-in-law was busy with, probably washing vegetables, chopping vegetables, and preparing ingredients. She once went into the kitchen and asked if she wanted help, but her mother-in-law said no. Her mother was a typical young daughter-in-law who was taught by her mother-in-law all the way in the old days, so she always thought that when she got married, she would always go into the kitchen to help, but she didn't expect to have to do anything at all.
At her in-law's house, the only thing she had to do was sit in the living room and wait for her in-laws to buy breakfast. Then the in-laws announced that they were going to drive them to play today.
Is not it good? Her husband had faced her emotional questioning.
Is not it good? This family is full of all kinds of good intentions, which are like air, seemingly optional, but absolutely irresistible. Is not it good? She could only continue to breathe the kindness that suffocated her as she counted down the days to go home.
When her husband finally finished breakfast, she saw that he just changed his posture, took a book and continued to read. The father-in-law began to clean up the leftover breakfast and rubbish on the table, and the mother-in-law went into the kitchen to work again. She finally stood up and walked into the playroom where the children were playing————
