Married for 4 years, let my wife return to her hometown, I look at my father-in-law’s room in the morning and I’m speechless

My wife and I have been married for 4 years, but last weekend was the first time I took my wife home after the wedding. The two of us work in the city, our grandparents’ house is several hundred kilometers apart. Whenever we have time off from work, we still have to go back to our grandparents’ house.

I believe that women who get married must follow their husbands. On holidays, she goes home to visit and pay filial piety to her parents-in-law, on New Year’s Day, the daughter-in-law must be present, when the child is born, she goes back to her husband’s house to stay, and the eldest child needs to take her home to play with her grandparents. Grandparents and grandparents will have their grandchildren, no one’s family is like that. Conditions far away know how to do.

Until last week, the wife said that she had not been home for 4 years, her father was sick and only her brother was there. My wife said in a sad voice, thinking for a moment I clicked my tongue to say that I would take her and her children back to the country to play.

We would like to take an extra day off on Friday, and go back to our hometown for all 3 weekends to be comfortable. The mother-in-law passed away a long time ago, which is also the reason why I think that my wife does not need to go back to her hometown much. Having a brother and sister-in-law, she takes care of her father, she no longer has a mother, but goes back to talking about it. When I returned, I just looked at each other, asked a few questions and left immediately. If so, asking by phone would be more than enough.

The few days in my hometown passed quickly. The father-in-law and brother-in-law welcomed us quite enthusiastically. In the morning, I had to get on the bus back to the city, I got up very early because I didn’t sleep well at night. Seeing that it was not yet time, I did not call my wife and children to wake up.

I went out, when I passed my father-in-law’s room, I suddenly heard strange sounds coming out. It was the cry of a man. It must be his father-in-law, but why should he cry?

Stepping closer, through the gap in the door, I saw a scene that made me dumbfounded. The father-in-law sat at the head of the bed, clutching a picture frame in his lap, crying and choking as he exclaimed:

“Grandma, it’s been 4 years since I last saw our youngest daughter in the flesh. I miss it very much. We only have one daughter, cherished and cherished her since childhood. Give it enough education, love and care, thinking that it will be happy to see it in the future.

Your son-in-law is not a bad person, but it’s been 4 years since I’ve seen your daughter. It’s also been 4 years since he lit incense for the house… I can’t describe my nostalgia, but he and his wife are about to leave, when will we be able to see our daughter and granddaughter again. I don’t know when it’s time to go down there with her, how many times I can see it …”.

My father-in-law has a disability in his leg, and walking is a bit difficult, so if we don’t go back to his hometown, he won’t be able to go to the city. His choked cry echoed in my ears, making my heart sink, pity, and regret welled up. A man who’s been up and down all his life can still be so weak…

Returning from my wife’s hometown to the city, the image of my father-in-law holding a photo of his wife crying still replays in my mind. (Illustration)

I made a big mistake already. I also have a daughter, thinking that in the future my son-in-law won’t let her take her home to play with me, I will certainly be very sad. No matter how old a child is, he is still a child of his parents. The father-in-law has lost his wife, even his daughter can’t visit him, but the one who stops her is me.

Returning to the city from my wife’s hometown, the image of my father-in-law holding a photo of his wife crying still replays in my mind, making me feel even more guilty for my wrongdoing over the years.

Lowering the determination in my heart, putting aside my shame, I frankly apologized to my wife. I promised her that I would treat both parents equally. As much as I would visit my grandmother’s house, I would visit my mother’s hometown as much as I could. Seeing my wife smile happily, then I felt my heart lighter.
