As soon as Mrs. Zhou said this, the softest part of Lin Ajiao's heart seemed to be touched all of a sudden. With tears in her eyes, she suddenly remembered all the unsatisfactory things that happened after she married into the Zhou family, such as At the beginning, the servants of the Zhou family were disrespectful to me, and they were not used to eating, and when Huan'er said that he wanted to celebrate his birthday, he felt helpless and sad.
"Mom, you are really my biological mother. You have said everything in my heart." Lin Ajiao held Mrs. Zhou's hand tightly and said with great emotion.
Mrs. Zhou raised her hand and touched her aggrieved face: "We are all women. I have experienced everything you have experienced more than 20 years ago, so I am the best one to understand your feelings." Understood.”
In the long time since Lin Ajiao married into the Zhou family, this was the first time that someone other than Zhou Ming had said such thoughtful words to her. She cherished this opportunity to talk to her mother-in-law so much that in order to avoid interrupting Mrs. Zhou Although she had thousands of words to say, she never expressed them.
Mrs. Zhou let out a long sigh and continued: "It is precisely because I have the same experience as you that I understand your current situation.
Women like you and me who are married into wives, if they don’t rely on their own efforts to gain a firm foothold in their husband’s family, no matter how much their husbands shield them from the wind and rain, it will be of no avail. They deserve to be wronged and angry. , nothing less.
The reason for this is very simple, because as a man, you cannot stay at home all the time, you always have to go out to make a living and do business.
If you don't work hard to live up to your expectations, and your husband has gone out, you will become the punching bag of your family, and no one will pity you, let alone feel sorry for you. "
Lin Ajiao nodded, feeling that what her mother-in-law said was very reasonable. If she had not been a martial arts practitioner, she would probably have been bullied to death by the Zhou family's servants from the beginning, and in this case, with her own In terms of his temperament, even if he was wronged again, he would never say anything to Yi Ming.
"Ever since you married into our family, I have been watching with cold eyes and found that when you deal with things, you are very well-controlled, so that the servants in the family can't find fault at all." Mrs. Zhou was quite pleased. He said, "You have to know that the servants in our family are not easy to use, especially that Laifu. If Ming'er hadn't been aware of everything, this old boy might still be domineering in our family.
When I first married into the Zhou family, I was in a similar situation to you, and I also suffered a lot. "
Seeing Mrs. Zhou's gentle and elegant look, Lin Ajiao really couldn't imagine that such a harmless and well-educated woman would be bullied by her servants when she was young.
Thinking of this, Lin Ajiao couldn't help but feel a little lucky in her heart, because she was lucky that she didn't choose to endure when she faced the grievance, otherwise the consequences would have been very miserable.
Seeing that Mrs. Zhou had spoken so much to her, Lin Ajiao was very grateful. At the same time, she felt that she had learned a lot from these words. However, what she never quite understood was that her mother-in-law said that she should not be in front of so many people. scolding Huan'er in front of him, what is the truth behind this?
Seeing that Mrs. Zhou's words were not getting to the point, Lin Ajiao became a little anxious. She saw the opportunity and quickly brought the conversation back to the topic: "Mom, I have kept in mind what you just said, but I still I don’t quite understand. Why did you just say that I shouldn’t reprimand Huan’er?
I brought this little girl from my parents' home. She is very affectionate and reasonable. Even if she makes a mistake, you and the master will definitely not blame her. To be honest, you will even love her very much. If you know that she is naughty and troublesome, not only will you not blame her, but you will not blame her. Punish her, and maybe she will make mischief with her. You said that under this situation, if I don't care about her anymore, this child will be destroyed. "
Mrs. Zhou was immersed in a good conversation with her daughter-in-law. When she suddenly heard her daughter-in-law say this, she suddenly remembered the important words in her heart that she had not yet said.
She sat upright, with a serious expression on her face, and then lowered her voice and said: "Daughter-in-law, what you said makes sense.
But based on my many years of experience, you can reprimand Huan'er, but not in front of so many people.
After all, you brought this child from your mother's family. If she is embarrassed, you will be embarrassed.
If this child is not a reasonable person and hates you from now on, wouldn't things be difficult? Think about it carefully, the people you bring from your own home cannot be of the same mind as you are. If this is the case, can you expect others to be of the same mind as you?
And more importantly, our master and young master were both there at that time. If you scolded Huan'er so recklessly, wouldn't it be tantamount to telling other people present that our master and young master are useless people? "
As soon as she heard this sentence, it was like a thunder exploded above Lin Ajiao's head. Her head was buzzing. It took her a long time to calm down. The reason why she was so shocked was entirely because she suddenly understood, I made a huge mistake at the dinner table just now.
She had just focused on settling the conflict between Huan'er and Chunni, and even wanted to take this opportunity to scare the monkeys and give other servants of the Zhou family a warning not to take her seriously.
In the end, she achieved these goals, but she made a bigger mistake. After all, on that occasion, her master and husband were both there, and these two important figures in the family had no influence on the two little maids. He didn't intervene in the dispute at all, and even thought it was a trivial matter.
As a result, Lin Ajiao stood up rashly and got angry like a fool. Although on the surface she calmed down the conflict between the two little maids and did not cause a bigger incident, in reality, she All of a sudden, the two male owners of the family were offended.
The reason is simple. On that occasion, neither Zhou Ruhai nor Yi Ming expressed their opinions, but she stood up and made irresponsible remarks. This behavior itself was a sign of not taking the male master of the family seriously. If If you encounter a mean-spirited person, this one sin alone is enough for your husband to kick you out of the house.
After thinking about this, Lin Ajiao was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat. Although she knew in her heart that Zhou Yiming was her husband-in-law and had deep feelings for her, no matter how excessive what she did, he would never do it. He was angry with himself, but his father-in-law was different.
My father-in-law was originally a scholar, and he always wanted to save face. He trampled on his majesty and dignity in front of so many people. Although he didn't say anything at the time, he probably hated himself to the core. If he didn't find a way to solve this problem quickly. If so, once the relationship with the father-in-law becomes too tense, not only may he not be able to stay in the Zhou family, it may even affect the father-son relationship between the father-in-law and the father-in-law.
After realizing the seriousness of the problem, Lin Ajiao turned pale with fright. She didn't have time to think too much and directly asked her mother-in-law for help: "Mom, I really didn't mean this. When I saw Huan'er losing her temper, I felt I got angry, so I couldn't hold back my anger for a while, so I stood up and talked nonsense. I didn't mean to be disrespectful to my father-in-law at all.
You, the old man, are very aware of everything. You must explain it to me in front of my father-in-law. Otherwise, how will I behave at home in the future? "
Seeing Lin Ajiao's frightened look, Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment. She and Zhou Ruhai had always thought that Lin Ajiao had martial arts skills and was such an outstanding person, so it was impossible to compare the two of them to each other. Putting it into perspective, now that she saw her acting like this, Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but sigh in her heart, thinking that this child is really great. She is so outstanding, but she has already been wronged by marrying her own son. As a result, After arriving at his own home, not only did the child not show the slightest bit of rebelliousness, he actually respected his parents-in-law so much. The Zhou family really found a treasure.
"Silly boy, looking at the way you are scared, it's not that serious." Mrs. Zhou quickly comforted her, "When we came here, your father-in-law wasn't that confused yet. He knew that you were so angry just now and it wasn't for him, so he didn't do it at all. Not angry.
Besides, after dinner, your father-in-law and I returned to the room, and I had already explained it to you in advance, so you don’t have to worry about this matter.
I am telling you these things from my heart. I just hope that you will be more careful in the future. As men, if they encounter some small bumps outside or make some mistakes, they will still have the opportunity to make a comeback. But in this world, for We women are not so tolerant.
Even if you have been careful, if you show your teeth when you smile, you may become the laughing stock of others. "
Lin Ajiao nodded, deeply convinced.
The more Mrs. Zhou saw her daughter-in-law, the more she liked her. Just when she was planning to pass on some of her experience in life to her daughter-in-law, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside the house.
A moment later, Chun Nier ran into the room panting, and just about to speak, she suddenly saw Lin Ajiao in the room, so she hurriedly said: "Young lady, it turns out you are here, let me have a good meal." try to find."
Lin Ajiao stood up quickly and asked in a panic: "Why are you so anxious to find me? Is the young master awake?"
At this time, Mrs. Zhou also asked Chun Nier: "What happened?"
In order to worry Mrs. Zhou, Chun Nier hurriedly smiled and said: "Old madam, don't worry, it's nothing serious. It's just that a group of people came outside our door just now and said they had something to do with our young master.
As soon as the family informed them, the master told them to take these people to the study and receive them personally.
After they took the lead to see the master, they were a little ungrateful. They said that the master could not handle their matters. They kept asking to see the young master. When the master asked them what the matter was, they would not tell them.
In the end, the master had no choice but to ask someone to find the young master. "
