I got married when I was 24 years old. Right after the wedding I got pregnant and gave birth. Just over a year later, I was pregnant again. Just like that, from the day I got married, my life was flooded with milk with 2 daughters. My children are too small and I have no one to take care of me, so I can’t go to work.
I am an orphan since childhood. At that time, my mother-in-law fell ill and passed away after a period of treatment.
Many times I told my husband to let me go to work, but he told me to let the children be strong and then go to work. So I had to put aside all my plans to hope that my son would be strong soon so he could go back to work. Those days were really tiring and stressful for me. Seeing people go to work, and me hanging around at home not being proactive, I really crave.
My family’s economy is not difficult, even if it is well-off. My husband’s own income is enough to support both my mother and my children to have a prosperous life. My wife and I also do not have to worry about the father-in-law because he has conditions. But to take the initiative in my life, I want to go back to work.
Her father-in-law brought back a young Osin. She is only a few years older than me. Illustration
From my husband to my father-in-law, no one supported my decision. My father-in-law told me to stay at home to take care of the children and then give birth to another child. The reason he gave was that he wanted to have a lot of grandchildren to make his family happy, but I know that he still wants a grandson to continue the family line.
After 2 consecutive births, I was extremely scared. I don’t want to have more children and think that whether it’s a boy or a girl, only 2 is enough. Before this decision of mine, the husband’s family was not satisfied.
Back to work, it took me a long time to catch up because the maternity leave was too long. Every day I am reeling with mountains of work. Seeing me like this, my husband told me to hire Osin to help me with family matters and take care of my children so that I could have more time to arrange work.
I was deeply moved by his decision because I thought he loved his wife. Even more surprising is that my father-in-law supported this because he did not want strangers in the house before.
Moreover, this time my father-in-law also told him to take the initiative to find Osin.
After that, the father-in-law brought back a young Osin. She is only a few years older than me. Not only is she agile, but looking at her beauty, to be honest, my daughter also has feelings for her. I find it strange why a girl like her would accept to work as an osin. Feeling that it was not normal, I expressed my displeasure with hiring that maid.
Seeing that, my father-in-law immediately shouted: “Hiring Osin now hires young people who are agile, know the job, then they can support the work. But now, how can I choose an elderly person who is slow to come back and take care of my house?” Normally, my father-in-law had decided that we would not dare to interfere anymore.
I just didn’t understand that my father-in-law was originally a miser. However, this time my father-in-law is willing to hire a young Osin and pay a salary of tens of millions of dollars a month. Compared to the common ground, that price is much higher because my family’s work is also not much.
My father-in-law insisted on hiring that Osin because he thought it was okay to pay a little higher for the job. After many unsuccessful arguments, I let my father-in-law decide. Anyway, my husband, father-in-law is the one who pays the salary and I have someone to help me.
I was shocked when he announced that Osin was pregnant with my husband’s child. Illustration
It is true that since I have a helping hand, I have more time for work. I rushed to work to assert myself. Half a year has passed, I am dumbfounded when I know the truth that my father-in-law, my husband did. That day, my father-in-law announced the family meeting.
I was shocked when he announced that Osin was pregnant with my husband’s child.
He said in a very happy tone because he knew that the fetus was a boy. He told me to accept this because I couldn’t have a son, so I let my husband choose another way to fulfill the role of the eldest son in the family. My husband was also very pleased.
Only now do I know that after I told my husband that I had a tubal ligation to stop giving birth, my husband had sex with the girl my father-in-law took to work as a maid. My father-in-law has calculated to bring someone back to give birth to a son for my husband.
Just thinking about it makes me feel terrible. I was even more afraid of my husband, so I decided to divorce. He blamed me for not listening to my father, not giving birth to another son for him.
Although I love my children, I don’t want to hold on to this marriage anymore. I don’t understand what era it is now, but there is still the idea of respecting men and disrespecting women, and nieces are so cheap?. I have decided to leave but I don’t know if I should take my two daughters with me.
