Every holiday season, when I miss my relatives and other people's homes are brightly lit, my home is full of laughter and laughter; Some old people are eating a reunion dinner coldly, and I think the children are guilty at this time.
I got married and settled in other places, but now I want to go back to my hometown and spend the New Year with my parents, but my wife doesn't agree. What should you do at this time?
Seeing that the Spring Festival is less than a month away, I want to go back to my hometown for the Spring Festival after five years of marriage, so I plan to go back to my hometown for the Spring Festival this year, but my wife's attitude makes me very angry and plans to divorce. Some people may say that I am too hasty, but I have been wronged for five years.
My hometown is in a remote mountain village, and my parents are authentic farmers who work on the construction site all the year round.
Although our family is poor, my parents would rather live a hard life by themselves than provide for my study. I knew it was not easy to study, so I studied hard and was admitted to the university as I wished.
After graduating from college, I put all my thoughts on my work. I just want to make money and let my parents live a good life as soon as possible. But after work, I find it difficult to make money, and it is even more difficult to save money.
Whenever I go back to my hometown and see my parents living in a dilapidated earthen house, I feel extremely guilty. I swear, I must let them live in a spacious and bright building.
After working for three years, I saved 200 thousand. I decided to build a building in my hometown, but my parents disagreed. They said it was not easy for me to make money and asked me to keep it for my wife. Later, regardless of parents' opposition, a two-story building was built in my hometown.
Although I spent all my savings building a house at home, I have no regrets. As long as my parents are comfortable, I think it's worth it.
Two years later, I met my wife Xiaoyu through a friend's introduction. She lives in the provincial capital and her family is very rich.
It was Xiaoyu who actively pursued me. At first, I felt very inferior. I don't think I deserve Xiaoyu, but with Xiaoyu's sincerity and encouragement, we came together.
We talked for a year and got married. Xiaoyu bought a house and a car. It can be said that I married Xiaoyu almost without spending a penny. My friends said I was lucky, and my parents told me I must be kind to Xiaoyu.
After marriage, we lived in the provincial capital. Although we live separately from our parents-in-law, I gradually feel that I am no different from my son-in-law.
Whenever there are guests at home, I always cook with fire, while Xiaoyu always chats with guests and never gives a hand.
I didn't care at first, but slowly I found Xiaoyu and her family had gone too far, especially during the Spring Festival.
Married for five years, every Spring Festival, Xiaoyu's relatives come to visit. I always cook, and her relatives treat me as a nanny. For a while, they let me serve tea and water, and for a while, they let me take snacks and fruits. In their eyes, I acted as a servant.
Besides, Xiaoyu usually gives me 500 yuan pocket money every month. Sometimes when the money is not enough, Xiaoyu will quarrel with me, let alone give her parents living expenses. You know my monthly salary is 15 thousand, so I have no position at home.
I once wanted to go back to my hometown for the New Year, but I was opposed by Xiaoyu and my parents-in-law. They think my family is poor, so it doesn't matter whether I go back or not.
Think about the past five years, my parents have been eating New Year's Eve dinner coldly every year, and I feel extremely guilty, especially when my parents called me a while ago and said they missed me and wanted me to go back for the New Year this year.
A few days ago, I told Xiaoyu that I wanted to go home and spend the New Year with my parents, but Xiaoyu refused.
I think Xiaoyu is too selfish. Married for five years, I spend the Spring Festival with Xiaoyu's family every year. Now I want to spend a lively New Year with my parents. Why not?
We quarreled about it. Xiaoyu said that she bought both the house and the car. If I go back for the Spring Festival, I won't come into this house after that. She said she would have nothing if I left.
I once gave everything for this family, but I found that Xiaoyu always only had her family in her eyes and never regarded my parents as her relatives.
As the saying goes, "the tree wants to be quiet, but the wind does not stop. The son wants to raise it, but he doesn't want to stay close."
Now that my parents are alive, I should accompany them well, and I can't ignore my parents just because my family is small. Although I really want to live with Xiaoyu, I feel that our marriage cannot go on.
I've been thinking for a long time these days and decided to divorce. Perhaps only divorce can let me unload all my burdens and let me have a happy and comfortable Spring Festival with my parents.
