The youngest husband is rich but stingy

I was born in a poor family, my mother died early, my father was old and weak and lived on my children. Dad is staying with my brother. I have been married to my current husband for 15 years. When they got married, the two lived with their husband’s parents for a while before moving out to live separately. After my husband, there are three more children, my husband and two stepsisters of the same age. Retired parents-in-law had just given birth to a youngest son, so the two brothers are quite large in age. My family and the youngest brother almost did not talk or confide in anything.

My father-in-law was a patriarch, so when I lived together, I struggled a lot, life at that time made me have an unfriendly view of my husband’s family. My husband works as a police officer, I’m just a ward civil servant, so my monthly salary is not much, and I have to raise two school-age children. My husband and I moved out to live separately, my husband’s parents gave a little, we still paid for the house, so we didn’t have much to spare. On weekends, siblings often take their children to their grandparents’ house to play so that grandparents will miss their grandchildren.

The husband’s parents are living with the youngest brother’s family. Husband and wife all have their own houses. Her parents-in-law’s pension adds up to about six million dong per month. The youngest husband and wife live together, so they take care of all living expenses for both parents. All expenses for the death anniversary or filial piety are taken care of by the youngest husband and wife representing the family. Sometimes other children also give their grandparents some to buy medicine for illness. Recently, my husband and I had an argument with our youngest brother and his wife. Through the argument, I realized that my husband and I were stingy and petty. My wife and I are well off, both work in foreign companies, and our monthly salary is much higher than my husband and I. Not to mention my wife is very rich, and has some rental properties.

Since getting married, my wife and I have prepared for our parents a television, a kitchen, and a nest. The old things the husband and wife replaced, we saw that it was a waste of time to get them back, but the two of them looked at them with annoyed eyes even though they didn’t say anything. Once we sent our children to grandparents for a few weeks, the children asked to return because the aunt and uncle were too judgmental and fastidious. I sent my children over so that they could have fun, and the two of them sat down to teach morals, forcing them to clean up for their grandparents and do housework, so the children didn’t want to be there. Not only that, they also told me to teach them again, they always went up to the room to turn on the air conditioner to play games, it turned out that they were afraid of spending money on electricity.

>> I can’t stand my sister-in-law being a lady

Even eating, my wife and I are stingy with our grandchildren. The children are at the age of adulthood, but the meal is only vegetables and fish, and there is not a single meat dish for my children. I asked, my sister-in-law said that the whole family was used to eating vegetables, if I eat meat, I will take care of the children by myself. Only the youngest brother and his wife looked at my house, the other children didn’t say anything. Many times, the husbands showed that they were led by the youngest husband and wife to eat many places and buy many things, while my children could only have a few cups of milk tea at most. My wife and I have never been asked or bought gifts by our youngest brother.

Last Sunday, the baby of the youngest husband and wife stopped. The two sisters invited my family to the party, I said I didn’t have money, so I didn’t come, they must know the intention to invite my family to be kind, but they kept silent. After the party, my parents-in-law called and scolded me and my wife heavily about not having dinner with the family, never paying attention to the husband’s parents, not giving his parents-in-law any money. Probably because the youngest husband and wife added to make their grandparents angry.

My wife and I are not as rich as our youngest brother, so we can’t take care of our parents, they must be biased and scold us. When I talked to the couple, the children argued, saying that they did not help their parents and still took things home. They said without understanding that my family was not rich enough to support my parents. The items we brought back were just old ones, so I used them when I saw them no longer using them. The youngest husband and wife are stingy from the smallest things, unacceptable. I am very disappointed in my youngest brother’s family. What should I do?
