When the Past Meets the Future, or The Story of an Intractable Mother-in-Law Who Doesn't Accept the Modern Way of Life
When Allochka came to meet her future mother-in-law, she was morally ready. After all, there are cases when the relationship between the daughter-in-law and the mother of the groom, to put it mildly, tense. It’s something that sitcoms make, books and jokes write about, but it’s one thing to laugh at a TV show, and quite another to become one of its heroes. And even if Alla allowed such a development, she clearly did not understand its scale. Well, it was obvious from the first meeting: Larisa Evgenyevna was an old-school man who loves remember.
And all would be fine if they did not have to share the same living space for a year and a half. However, after that, it is safe to say that the marriage of Alla and Sergey will endure. test.
Why some people need to remember the past
Larisa Evgenyevna, born in 1969, was undoubtedly a strong woman. She raised her son and tried to give him the best. To do this, she worked from morning to night in accounting, which adversely affected her character. She was unhappy with her life. And the lives of all the people around you, to be honest, too. Therefore, in her later years, Larisa Evgenyevna had no friends or girlfriends, and even with a neighbor they did not talk for the past five years. The son Sergei was joy in her life.
Therefore, the appearance of Alla became a real test for both of them, and everything began from the first minute, when the mother heard about the fact that the son was a child. finally get married.
Sergei himself was a bachelor until the age of 30, but was completely fascinated by his chosen one. They met by accident, at a trolley bus stop. It was a late winter evening, traffic was interrupted, and the two frozen passengers quickly found common ground. Larisa Evgenyevna still believes that his son from that moment as if replaced.

- She won't even make you soup, mark my words. I doubt she knows anything about running a house. What kind of job does she have that she gets up at 10am?
The future mother-in-law was inconsolable after the first meeting, as the young announced that they were preparing for the wedding. She immediately called this decision wrong. First of all, they've only known each other for a couple of months. Secondly, daughter-in-law She didn't like the word at all.
But Sergey only gave up on these naggings and put his mother before the fact: either he is moving out right now, or they live together for some time until they save up for the down payment for the apartment. Relentingly, her mother agreed to live together. She didn’t want to let her son go. And then she decided that she could change his mind while they lived together. Open his eyes, so to speak.
Most of all, Larisa Evgenyevna was confused by the profession of a freshly baked relative. Alla worked. marketing consultantIt's remote. Which means she spent most of her time at home. In the understanding of the mother-in-law, finding a home implied tireless restoration of order, cooking, needlework and other troubles. What else can I do at home?
Therefore, the way of life of a young and successful woman was not clear to her. What is it like to sit at home and do nothing? Because such work Larisa Evgenyevna did not consider for work. You have to go to work, and if you can do it at home, What a job.? Allochka, who sits at her laptop from morning to night or talks on the phone, brought unbearable suffering to her mother-in-law.
The last straw was the appearance of new equipment in the apartment, which, according to Sergei’s mother, allowed Alla to do nothing at all. Smart robot vacuum cleaner It was much better than the old vacuum and took out dust even from under the old sofa. Lunch and dinner were periodically prepared by a multicooker. However, most of all, Larisa Evgenyevna was frightened by an electric kettle, which could be turned on through the phone while in another room.
- When I was young, we didn't have all the electrical stuff. They did everything with their hands and did no worse. I'm afraid to imagine how much this pleasure costs. And all for what not to get out of the couch? Go clean the dust and break your back.
Larisa Evgenyevna dripped Alla on her brain almost constantly. Mostly during work, her husband, who left at 9pm and returned at 7pm, was like "any normal person." At least that’s what Larisa Evgenyevna thought. She also believed that her calls and correspondence on the Internet Alla does not earn anything, but lives. at the expense of her son.
What to do if the mother-in-law does not accept the daughter-in-law Alla was a strong nut, and did not succumb to provocations. I could wear headphones and not hear at all. lamentation. After all, Sergey warned her that these few months will not be easy. The woman did not want to complain about his mother, besides, she had work above the roof: online interviews, courses, project protection, you still need to somehow make a financial report. But one day, even her patience broke.
- Your vacuum cleaner's back in the corner for the third hour. Is that what he's vacuuming? I should have cleaned up the hallway. Satan's machine, that's all. And where you're spending your money, I don't know. What will you do when the baby is born? Buy a robot, too? I'm not gonna let my grandson be followed by some iron guy.
Dear Larisa Evgenyevna...
Alla closed her laptop and, trying to control herself, tried to formulate a thought. She knew she was living in someone else's house. But I also knew it would not be long. And the relationship with the mother-in-law and husband for a long time. But she would not tolerate such comments anymore.
- You see, my money also goes to utility bills. And buying your medicine, by the way. We also buy products from Seryozha. By the way, he has a pay gap, which is why I work so hard. A vacuum cleaner from the previous apartment.
Probably the first time Allochka was so serious. Before that, she only joked or silently ignored reproaches. This frightened Larisa Evgenyevna, who did not even suspect that her son could not cope financially. It seemed to her that just calling and sitting on the Internet can not make money.
Sergey, hearing from his wife the details of the conversation with his mother, was simply amazed. He did not even know Larisa Evgenyevna from this side. Therefore lodging They got a lot faster, and a month later the young couple finally moved out. Soon after, it became clear that Allochka was in position. She really didn’t want to talk about this mother-in-law. But when it became obvious, Seryozha insisted on sharing the good news.
Unsplash Keeping the Memory of the Past Not wanting to personally listen to comments about the robot nanny and about the fact that she does not know anything, Alla wrote in a family chat: “We are waiting for replenishment, we accept congratulations!”
The mother-in-law, angry at the fact that the daughter-in-law took her son and now she lived alone, at a meeting with Sergei did not forget to remind him what a selfish wife he had.
- Look at her, she hasn't given birth yet, and she's already accepting gifts! Of course, sitting at home will not make money, now you need to give everything. How is she going to babysit? You don't have to press the washing machine button. In my time, we did everything with our hands, so you grew up so good.
For Seryozha, this was the last straw. He realized that he had to make a choice: either mother or Alla, and the third was not given. When he told Larisa Evgenyevna that she was completely wrong, it was a real blow to her mother. And for a couple of months after that, they didn't really talk. But still, Larisa Evgenyevna did not want to be lonely for the rest of her days, so she accepted an apology from her son. But she didn't do any better for her daughter-in-law.
The situation changed a little when a grandson was born. He was named Eugene after his grandfather, and it finally melted his mother-in-law's heart. And even Alla stopped being such a bad daughter-in-law. The child is well-fed, well-groomed, always clean, the house is in order. But no, there are still times when grumbling He is the one who bought a new Satanic machine. It's not easy. remember And at the same time, try to move into a bright future.
And all would be fine if they did not have to share the same living space for a year and a half. However, after that, it is safe to say that the marriage of Alla and Sergey will endure. test.
