Chapter 3 — Mother-in-law scolded me for being greedy for inheritance, so I immediately broke off the relationship

Gradually, the clinic's reputation in the industry is also increasing. Work is so busy that my feet don't even touch the ground, and I don't even have time to pick up my children. When Chu Vu was still alive, Luu Xuan Mai always criticized me for not knowing how to be a good wife and mother. She hated that I always followed my husband out to take care of work, always thinking that I did it to compete with her children over hospital property. So time after time, she tried to separate my husband and me. Fortunately, at that time, Chu Vu always thought his mother was unreasonable. He is always on my side. Between the two women, he is the one who tries to calm the atmosphere and keep harmony in the family. Because we have little contact, the conflict between me and her has not yet reached the point of exploding. At most, it's just a dull discomfort in my heart. When Chu Vu was still alive, I always had him as my fulcrum. If anything happens, he is the one who takes responsibility. Thanks to that, I was able to live peacefully throughout those years. I'm naturally a mild-tempered person and don't like to argue, but honestly, no one can walk out of a big family event without being hurt. More or less, it will leave a scratch in my heart. No one knows how much I suffered. One day, a peaceful family suddenly broke apart like bubbles. Only me and my two young children remained. Since then, my personality has also changed. I'm more impatient than before. Get angry easily. Easy to lose patience. So, when Luu Xuan Mai continued to talk nonsense and cause trouble, I really didn't have any composure left to pretend to be nice anymore. I didn't say another word, quietly threw her at the hospital and turned around to leave. From now on, I will never be soft on her again. She doesn't deserve my pity. In the morning, I immediately did four full eyelid surgeries. When I went out to eat at noon, I noticed that my WeChat phone was showing 99+ unread messages. Because of my busy work, I soon lost my sensitivity to this flood of text messages. I was going to call my daughter first. This afternoon I didn't have time to cook dinner for my two children. You can only find a boarding babysitting place near an elementary school, and carefully choose a place with an absolute five-star rating to send your children to eat lunch and rest. I only have an hour lunch break to eat. After eating, it's time for the shift break, and I won't be able to call the kids anymore. While calling, WeChat messages continued to pour in. As soon as I hung up, I immediately turned on my phone to look. As a result, a series of messages came from Chu Manh Manh, and then Chu Vu's aunt, uncle, and cousin. Most of them were scolding me for being heartless and without conscience:

“Chu Vu just passed away not long ago, and you treat his mother like that?”

“You are such an ungrateful and ungrateful thing!”

“If you are not filial, you will be punished by heaven, you know?”

In addition, there were many messages from the doctors at the hospital that I took Luu Xuan Mai to see this morning. I am a student studying from university to master's and doctoral degree at Provincial Medical University. Before opening my own clinic, I worked at that same hospital. There are many old colleagues there, who are also my old classmates. This morning, because I was in such a hurry, I took my ex-mother-in-law to that hospital and forgot that there were many people there... who still remembered who I was. When Chu Vu passed away, Many people in this hospital attended the funeral. There are also many people who know Luu Xuan Mai's face and voice. Looking at the series of messages sent by former colleagues, I realized... After I left, Luu Xuan Mai immediately became angry in the hospital. She cursed her daughter-in-law, me, the smelly toilet next door, scolded her son who died early, scolded her daughter for not answering the phone, scolded the hospital, scolded fate. Especially after someone realized she was Chu Vu's mother, she became even more crazy. Everyone you meet curses. No distinction between doctors, patients or security guards. Trieu Dan Dan - a former colleague - texted me:

“The security team called the police.

The police have already contacted her daughter.”

“Everything is taken care of now, you don't need to worry.”

"I looked at the camera, I can partly guess what happened."

“She said such harsh words that… even if she doesn't think about you, she should think about the two children.”

"As a biological grandmother, can she act so unsympathetically?"

In recent years, to avoid arguments between patients and doctors, public areas in hospitals have cameras with recording functions installed. Although the argument between me and her was not loud, because it was still very early and the hospital did not have many people passing by, the entire process was still clearly recorded. Furthermore, at Chu Vu's previous funeral, Luu Xuan Mai also cried, screamed, and then rushed to beat and scold me, saying I was a comet, the one who killed her son. At that time, there were many witnesses. They had to dissuade and advise her on all sorts of things. But this time, the scene of "going crazy in the hospital" was enough to make those who had sympathized with her wake up and see clearly her true nature. None of my colleagues blamed me, on the contrary, they sent many words of comfort and sharing. Someone even recorded the screen and sent it to me with a message:

“I saw people around the patients taking videos.”

“Maybe it will be posted on Douyin or some other platform.

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is inherently very sensitive..."

“If anyone slanders you in the future, this video can at least be used as evidence.”

I hastily sent my thanks. It's truly a warming coal on a cold, snowy day. With Luu Xuan Mai's personality, I have absolutely no doubt that in the future she will find a way to drag me online to defame me. At that moment, Chu Manh Manh's phone called again. She and I had no conflicts, so I immediately picked up the phone. Her voice almost sounded like she wanted to cry:

“I really don't want to worry about my mother anymore.

She's so annoying, I hate her to the core!”

“And yet the police still called me.

As soon as I arrived, she scolded me, beat me, and scolded me for being unfilial!

“Sister-in-law, is there any way…

How can I prevent my mother from ever being able to raise her head again in this life?"

“I really… hate her from the bottom of my heart.”

I was silent for a long time, then just said one sentence:

“Yes… but…”

Chu Manh Manh immediately interrupted:

“Don't say 'but' anymore.

As long as you can cut her off, you can tell me to do anything!”
