I tried to keep my tone calm. "Mom, please delete the video. If you want to take it in the future, wait for me to tidy myself up and take it with the baby. But when I was in such a miserable state, you took the video of me and it has already invaded my privacy."
"Why are you young people so sensitive nowadays? Back in my day, when I was breastfeeding and giving birth, I couldn't just find a corner to get it over with." My mother-in-law rolled her eyes.
After much persuasion, she still didn't agree.
My anger grew higher and higher, and I couldn't help but say, "I'll say it one last time, delete the video."
"Women should prioritize their husband's family. What are you rebelling against?" Rosemary Guzman raised an eyebrow.
I realized that it was pointless to argue, so I stopped talking.
I silently picked up my phone and reported my mother-in-law's video for obscene content.
After a while, my mother-in-law's video was taken down by the platform.
"Oh no, where's my video?" My mother-in-law just put down the child and found that her highly praised video was gone.
"Nina, you have such a bad temper. With your attitude, this old lady will never forget it in the second half of her life!" Mother-in-law collapsed on the ground, throwing a tantrum. Tears were like thunder without rain, not a single drop fell.
I ignored her and carefully lay down, still feeling the pain from the incision on my abdomen, and rested.
Mother-in-law seemed to realize that I wasn't buying into her act, so she quickly got up and started calling various relatives.
"Yes, Nina even got angry with me today. It seems that people in the city become delicate after giving birth."
"I will start accommodating her now, otherwise this old lady won't have a good life."
……
I couldn't rest well even when I lie in bed to rest. At this time, the puerpera was already the weakest, but my mother-in-law chose to pick on me at this time.
Before I could refute, my phone rang.
Without even looking, I know it must be those annoying relatives.
I looked up and met my mother-in-law's gaze, and saw her relaxed eyebrows and a happy expression, as if she had won a great victory.
But since getting married, I had been annoyed by those so-called relatives, and I didn't have the energy to answer their calls, so I simply turned off my phone.
Seeing me like this, my mother-in-law frowned and muttered something, then threw the child and ran out.
