It's so great to not be a good daughter-in-law!
It's so great to not be a good daughter-in-law!

My mother-in-law lost two teeth, so I bought her an entire box of cheap and unhealthy instant noodles—one meal for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
She held a bowl of instant noodles, eyeing the skewers in my hand with clear envy, and asked if she could have some meat.
I told her, "No way. Meat might aggravate your condition. The doctor said you need to eat something nutritious."
Later, she went around telling everyone in the neighborhood that I was a heartless daughter-in-law who abused her.
Her son confronted me angrily, and her daughter called to accuse me of being ungrateful, saying I was heartless.
I recorded everything they said and played it back for my mother-in-law. She fell silent after hearing it.
Because she knew better than anyone.
Back when I was recovering after giving birth, during the time I was supposed to be cared for and well-fed, she made me eat nothing but instant noodles for a whole month.
