I was 39 years old, the age of “sluggishness” in the ironic way of talking neighbors. It’s also true that when my friends have had children with them, they have held up to 2 or 3 of them, but I still go back and forth alone.

Every time I go to a class meeting, I see that my wife and children are full, every now and then they are called home by my wife, and I feel sorry for myself, I also like having people take care of me and go around the world with me. .

My company’s employees often gossip that I’m picky, my temper is as dry as stone, so no one can love me…

I have never experienced a serious love before. Partly because for all these years, I only knew how to study and strive for my career, after finishing university, I went abroad to study for a master’s degree, then returned to work for a foreign company, and then worked my way up from employee to manager. room.

Another part is probably because I am a guy who has everything in my hand, from a job with a good income to a house and a car, so according to my mother, girls often have the thought “high can’t come, short can’t come.” “compassionate”, equally talented girls have a full husband and children, while unmarried girls do not dare to reach.

Then how by fate I happened to know Nga – the secretary of the director of the partner company. Nga is only 27 years old, 12 years younger than me.

When we first met, she hesitated to call me uncle and grandson. After many times of talking, going out to eat, going to coffee, we changed the way we address each other and called each other brother and sister.

My love story with Russia quickly spread in the company and my employees tried their best to support for the future to have a wedding feast.

After 6 months of dating, I brought Russia home to debut. The debut at my house went very well, so we considered getting married.

Everything was going very smoothly until I met my lover’s house. In order to make a good impression on everyone in the future wife’s family, I tried to dress young and buy lots of toys for Russia’s grandchildren, and buy gifts for my parents and relatives.

When she went to her girlfriend’s house, her mother from beginning to end said very harsh words, like asking what she is doing, how much is her monthly salary, is there a car at home…

Seeing me smile and say that I am an office worker, my future mother-in-law’s face darkened, indicating that I was old but still had nothing in hand, and then she said that her daughter deserves a handsome husband, more talented. She also intentionally told her daughter privately, but her intention was to let me hear: “This family is short of money, so they have to marry someone 12 years older than them”.

The words of the future mother-in-law made me feel offended. I went straight to where the mother and daughter were whispering and told her to rethink our relationship.

When Nga explained that I was the head of the department and the garage was full, the lover’s mother quickly changed her attitude, sweetly apologizing. Nga’s father also scolded her a few sentences to calm me down, but I still decided to go home without having meals at Nga’s house anymore.

Honestly, I like Nga because she’s a good girl, she knows how to care for me, and also supports me a lot in my work, but thinking about Nga’s mother’s words on debut, I still get angry.

Yesterday, my future mother-in-law called again to invite me to my hometown to play again. Should I give it all up to get married to Russia?
