sandy,
hahaha... you got mixed up liao. it's my MIL. you think she really over-concern for me meh? it's her son that she concern loh... you know something? last time she ever questioned me if i got help out in household chores or not. she even sort of scolded me better not throw everything to her son to do... See, so biase right? that was the first conflict i had with her and till now, i'm still very angry over it whenever i think of it. at that time, i wanted very much to tell her which eyes of her saw that i didnt do household chores but too bad loh cos i dun really know how to speak hokkien so just kept quiet loh.... luckily hubby helped me and sort of tell her off... after that we went home and i cried like mad....
there is one sentence which i truely agreed loh... xiang jian rong yi, xiang chu NAN.... if you want to maintain a good relationship with your PILs, it's better to stay (residential) far away from them loh. one at 'tong', the other at 'xi'.
