Wiltspoon, she heard from Jasmine.
Jasmine assessed the situation and continued, “Since Grandma May is not an option, others are targeting your mother-in-law instead. They intend to use her to torment you, aiming to undermine Zachary and your happiness.
The conflict between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law is a timeless story. Historically, mothers-in-law often bullied their daughters-in-law, and these days, daughters-in-law typically prefer not to live with their in-laws, which makes conflicts more likely to arise.
If you don’t cohabitate, the distance can foster peace between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, preventing the man they both love from being caught in the middle.
Fortunately, you and your husband do not live with your in-laws, which means you don’t see his mother often. As a result, others speculate that there is tension between you and your mother-in-law, and they are trying to use her as a means to torment you. This is why many rumors suggest that your relationship is strained.
When these rumors reached your mother-in-law, she couldn’t tolerate it, so she took you with her to dispel them. Your mother-in-law is genuinely kind to you, Seren. While you may not be her ideal daughter-in-law, she still defends you. She cannot bear to hear rumors about your supposed discord.”
Serenity felt immense gratitude toward Tania upon learning that she was defending her. Her mother-in-law had never made things difficult for her. Even during her disagreements with Zachary, Tania sympathized with him but did not create trouble for Serenity or speak ill of her.
Serenity recognized how rare it was to have a mother-in-law as wonderful as Tania. She remarked, “In the end, other people only had the opportunity to…”
Rumors are circulating because I don’t spend enough time with my mother-in-law. I recognize that I should make an effort to spend more time with her in the future. If we interact more frequently, it will reduce the likelihood of others spreading rumors about us.
“My in-laws have such a strong bond that they are practically inseparable. I even felt like a third wheel during our shopping trip yesterday. My father-in-law called nearly every twenty minutes, urging her to come home.
He also complained over the phone that she was neglecting him for her daughter-in-law. He lamented that she had gone out without informing him or taking him along, suggesting that he could have helped carry our bags. It took her quite a while to reassure him before we could continue shopping.”
Jasmine listened with envy and remarked, “I hope that after decades of marriage, Josh and I can be like your in-laws. Their relationship is so strong that it feels like they’re still dating.”
Serenity, too, envied her in-laws’ relationship. She shared, “Zachary really dotes on me, but that’s true for all the men in his family. His uncles are also very attentive to their wives. They come from a good family, which means the men were raised well.”
Thus, even if she wanted to spend more time with her mother-in-law, she had to take her father-in-law’s feelings into account.
