Waking up in the middle of the night looking for my husband, seeing a pot of ginger water, I burst into tears

I am the only child in the family. My father passed away many years ago. So when I got married, the person I was most worried about was still my mother. Fortunately, after that, I got a husband who was devoted to his wife’s family. After buying a house, he took the initiative to welcome my mother to the city to take care of me.

I say I live with my mother-in-law, but my husband treats my mother like blood. Many nights lying together, he confided:

“It’s really hard work for my mother to raise me up and be successful. Being a child, even though I’m not rich, I still have to take good care of my mother. In the future, when I have the conditions, I will welcome both my parents to live with them for fun.” .

Lately, my mother often has trouble sleeping. One day, at dawn, I was able to take a nap. I bought her some medicine to help me sleep but it still doesn’t work. Last night I woke up suddenly, not seeing my husband beside me, I got up to look for him.

Seeing my husband fidgeting in the toilet on the first floor with a basin of warm ginger water, I asked what he was doing, and he replied:

“I’m making some ginger water for my mother to soak her feet in. I just went through the room and saw the light on, so I knew she couldn’t sleep. Wait for me to finish, I’ll bring it in for you.”

I burst into tears because of my husband’s small but warm action for my mother. I am very lucky to have such a good husband.

But that also makes me feel guilty because yesterday my mother-in-law came to visit and slept over. Seeing her son’s devotion to his mother-in-law, she expressed dissatisfaction. I don’t want to offend anyone, so I plan to let my mother go home for a while. But my husband disagrees. I’m the one in the middle, how to solve this problem smoothly?
