The Buddhist lady travels through ancient times to live a leisurely life
Chapter 70 Mother-in-law
Even though Lord Xie didn't look at his wife, he could roughly guess her reaction.
He opened his eyes and looked at Madam Xie with a sharp gaze. His eyes alone frightened Madam Xie. She lowered her head, and her hand holding the handkerchief to wipe her tears was still on her face, not knowing whether to continue wiping or put it down.
Lord Xie rarely spoke sternly to his wife: "You'd better take my words to heart. Don't interfere in the affairs of your son and daughter-in-law, as well as Dalang's discipline."
He spoke each word with great emphasis, his tone extremely stern.
The reason he said this was because he suddenly remembered that his wife wanted to take a concubine for his son. She said that they only had one child, Dalang, and it was too thin, so they wanted to take a concubine to expand the Xie family.
I just don’t know what it means!
Back then, his mother wanted him to take a concubine, but as soon as she mentioned it, his wife made a fuss and the family became uneasy. Why is it that now that it's her turn to be a mother-in-law, she's thinking about taking a concubine for her son again?
Isn’t it said that you should not do to others what you do not want others to do to you?
Besides, are his old relatives easy to mess with? Although he no longer holds a position in the court, his title of Taifu is still there, his status as the emperor's teacher is still there, and his connections in the court are still there. The positions of his two sons in the court are also very stable, and it is only a matter of time before they hold high positions.
Why do you think that such a family would watch their daughter being wronged and turn a blind eye? Would they allow their daughter to be bullied by the daughter of a minor official? Even if you are the mother-in-law, they can't do anything to you directly, but it is easy for them to criticize Xie Lang.
You make mistakes at home and let your son bear the consequences for you outside. Is this what a mother should do?
Why are you so reckless in doing things?
He had to knock her.
"I don't care about Dalang's upbringing, but can't I make the decision to marry a concubine for my son? Is there any mother-in-law as cowardly as me in the world? She has been married for so many years, and she only has a child like Dalang. After that, she has no children for many years. Aren't you anxious?"
Lord Xie said mercilessly: "Isn't there only one son left in my generation?"
You did give birth to two children, but one of them was not taught well and died of depression. Now there is only one left. What's the difference?
Besides, since you can give birth to one child, it means there is nothing wrong with your body. If you take good care of yourself, you will be able to have another child eventually. Why rush?
The old lady started crying again. The knife stabbed by the old marquis really pierced her heart.
Lord Xie sighed and said, "Qing'er is just like you, she is heavy-hearted and cries easily, so she got into trouble in the end. Just be a good old lady and don't worry about other things. Hand over your share of the household expenses to your daughter-in-law, and enjoy your old age."
Old lady: “!!!”
Why is it that the more she talks about it, the less power she has? Are they trying to completely sideline her?
She cried, "Is it not okay for me to stop caring? You asked me to hand over everything I was doing. What position would I have in this family in the future? How would the servants look at me? Would I be able to hold my head up in front of my daughter-in-law? Why don't you think about me?"
The daughter-in-law was born in a noble family, so she might look down on her mother-in-law. If she didn't have any power as a housekeeper, how would she manage the servants in the future? How would she establish her authority? Who would take her, an old lady, seriously?
