The day my son decided to divorce, I was happy to come out because my daughter-in-law and I did not get along very well.

My family is well-off and lives in the city, my husband also holds a high position at the agency, and my only son also has a good position at work. Therefore, marrying a girl who is not registered for marriage is something that makes me not very happy.

From the day my daughter-in-law came home, I was often irritable, judgmental, and did wrong things with her. The day she walked out of the house, I still thought I was right, even proud to find her a better wife. However, cause and effect did not exclude anyone and I began to suffer the consequences for my past mistakes.

The story is that I know a friend, she invited me to invest together. Because of the promise of mother and child interest, I tried to put all the money in the house, using my savings to invest with my friends. At first, every month was profitable and earned a good amount of money, so I didn’t take precautions but just kept that money to invest.

At this time, my friend also introduced me to her granddaughter with the image of a docile, courageous, and right-wing daughter-in-law that I wanted. Through a few meetings, I arranged for my son to meet and get acquainted, even insisting on forcing him to marry that girl. And then, she became pregnant and officially became the new daughter-in-law in the family.

When they returned to the same house, all the bad habits of the daughter-in-law were exposed. In the past, he appeared to be docile, meek, and courageous, now he is lazy and depraved.

A daughter-in-law who has just given birth does not care and nurture her child, but she lets her parents-in-law take care of her. Many times, I grumbled and expressed my frustration, but she just brushed it off and didn’t consider her mother-in-law’s words. But for my family, for my son and for my grandson, I accept to be patient.

A few days ago, I met her friend again to ask about the money I had invested. When I offered to withdraw both principal and interest, my friend advised me to leave it alone or in a few months to pay me a little interest.

Seeing that I firmly disagreed, her friend’s attitude changed dramatically and said as if she cursed at me: “The money my grandmother lent to her daughter-in-law has already been lent. He needed money, so when he asked, I gave it. As a family, she thought and calculated what to do.

I couldn’t believe my ears. My daughter-in-law took my money without my knowledge. It’s not a small amount, if needed, why didn’t she ask me a question.

Now, in my head, I’m so confused, thinking about how my daughter-in-law and my friend cheated on me, I feel extremely angry. I don’t dare to think about losing that money, because if that happens, I don’t know how to face it…
