My sister-in-law forbade me from attending the wedding because I was poor… But when the groom met me, he quickly bowed his head and called me by a name that made his whole family scared. Actually, I am…
I have been married for two years. My husband’s family has three siblings, my husband is the youngest, and his sister – Hanh – is famous in the family for being a show-off.
Since I became a daughter-in-law, she has always shown contempt and did not bother to hide it. My family is in the poor countryside, my parents are farmers, and I am a girl who has been independent since I was young. After graduating, I worked hard in the interior design industry, gradually building my own company.
But because of my simplicity, I have never shown any signs of being a show-off, and even my husband’s family did not know that I was a director. In their eyes, I was just a “little girl who ate a lot and was lucky to marry a rich man”. Ms.
Hanh often hinted:
– “I don’t know what kind of luck her family had to marry my younger brother. Nowadays, girls are good at cooking, but they probably don’t have much money.”
I listened and just smiled. I didn’t need to prove anything.
But life is full of twists and turns – and the day she had to receive her “revenge” came faster than I thought. One weekend morning, the whole family was happy because Ms. Hanh was about to get married.
Her husband – the groom – worked in the field of construction design, and was said to have “a pretty face”. My mother-in-law was very happy and kept telling me:
– “Get ready to dress up, tomorrow we’ll go to the groom’s house with the whole family to meet him.”
I nodded, but before I could say anything, Ms. Hanh stepped out, arms crossed, her voice full of sarcasm:
– “No, you don’t have to go.
His family is full of rich people, and you come from a background like this, going with me is awkward.”
I was stunned. My husband frowned:
– “What are you talking about? My wife is also a family member!”
But Ms.
Hanh remained calm:
– “You don’t understand. You have to be respectful wherever you go! If people knew that our youngest daughter-in-law was a poor girl, wearing cheap clothes, what kind of respect would that be?”
I was silent.
