The mother-in-law gives her husband’s sister a lot of money, and helps us only with food.

Helping people in the family is very important. Especially when it comes to helping parents and vice versa. Ksenia always believed that the desire to help should be mutual, and the love of parents for children is equal. But the example in her husband’s family showed that relationships can be different.



Trips to the village to the parents of her husband have become commonplace for a young family. There was no question of spending the weekend for yourself. The husband immediately said that he and Xenia are obliged to help his parents in the garden. She didn't mind. After all, physical labor is useful, and fresh air has never hurt anyone.

Over time, the young couple even got a car to travel to the countryside. Since it was possible to get to the destination only with transfers. And it took a very long time. In addition to handmade, they also purchased seeds and seedlings for the garden. And then Xenia together with her husband and his parents worked on the harvest.



Her husband's sister Xenia was happy at first. Her relationship with her husband’s parents is good. With mother-in-law you can always talk and even joke, and the father-in-law every weekend arranges barbecues after a hard day’s work. And everything seems normal as long as it's not about the sister-in-law.

Her husband's younger sister is Christina. She is 26 years old and lives and works in the city. However, he does not visit his parents often. And when Xenia invites everyone to go to the village together, she is always either busy at work or sent on a business trip.



To the constant absence of a daughter, parents treat with understanding. They believe that Christina is constantly working and she simply does not have time to visit her parents. In this regard, they said that the house in the village will remain Cristina. And Xenia and her husband can handle it themselves. Ksenia herself considered it strange, given that without them, the mother-in-law and father-in-law no longer want to work in the garden.

Last week Christina called her brother and asked them to go to their parents. I haven’t seen it for a long time, but here is a free day to travel. Ksenia reacted to this impulse of a relative with skepticism. Just like that, Cristina wouldn't have gone to the countryside. She probably needs something from her parents. And Xenia wasn't wrong.



While the husband and father-in-law were engaged in the garden, and Xenia and her mother-in-law were going through vegetables, Christina slept peacefully in the house. You see, she's very tired. When everyone gathered at the table in the evening, Ksenia inadvertently heard a piece of conversation between her mother-in-law and Christina.

- Sure, baby. Whatever you say, we'll help you.

Then Xenia finally became clear.



Peels Money vs Vegetables The next day, happy with the productive weekend, the husband put food prepared by his mother-in-law into the car. And at this time Christina put in a purse 7000 rubles from her parents. She didn't hide it, so Xenia didn't think she was spying on her sister-in-law or violating her personal space in any other way.

She didn’t care what the money was for. Ksenia was worried about the fact that for all the time the parents of her husband did not give them a ruble. Their maximum is a few kilograms of potatoes, beets and carrots. At the same time, the mother-in-law is absolutely sure that she helps the children equally.



According to Xenia, mutual help of people, especially relatives, should be deserved. One’s time should be rewarded by the gratitude of the other and vice versa. The effort should not be spent on helping a third party who had nothing to do with working for the common good. What can I tell my husband’s parents? It's their daughter. But it's still not fair.

Mutual help of people - the result is Ksenia right about the role of sister-in-law in the life of her husband's parents? Do you think your son is unfair?
