As an emotional blogger, I often hear stories about elder sisters helping their younger brothers buy houses, but the elder sisters are actually very bitter inside. Sometimes I feel that siblings are connected by blood, so it’s okay to help, but This reader’s story really shocked me.
Let’s call this reader Mr. Wang, thinking it is a first-person story:
1.
My wife and I are college classmates, she is beautiful and talented She is the dream lover of many people. There were many people pursuing her at that time, and I was just one of them.
I was afraid that I wouldn’t even have to be a friend to confess my love, so I treated her secretly without asking for anything in return or expecting anything in return. When I was young, being able to take a secret look at her was already a great happiness.
She rejected everyone, but was very friendly to me. Once she had a fever and couldn’t stand properly while doing exercises. I was the first to rush up and carry her to get an IV drip. She was injecting fluids and asked me what she thought she was. Anyway, I was a little overjoyed.
In everyone’s unexpected eyes, she became my girlfriend. I was average-looking and had average grades. When I graduated, I asked her, why did she choose me? She said you must have forgotten that on the day of registration for school, her father and her brother went to see her off. Our dormitory was not full at that time, so I let my uncle and brother sleep in our dormitory.
I remember this, but I think it is appropriate. It was a simple effort and I didn’t think it was special. However, she felt that I was a kind person at heart and worthy of being together.
We stayed together in the city where the school was located, rented a house and started living together. I loved her and never thought of marrying someone other than her, so I handed in my card from the first salary after graduation. Yes, I feel very happy.

The first quarrel since we fell in love came relatively late. We decided to get married and looked at a house. Our parents gave us the down payment and wrote our names. , but hinted that I wanted to ask my wife to decorate their home.
Considering that my wife’s family background is not very good, and my younger brother is still in college, and based on my wife’s daily interactions with family members, I guessed that their family would not have much money to give us.
So, my wife and I suggested that we pay for the decoration ourselves, but told my mother that it was from their family. I thought this would be the greatest sincerity to her. Besides, it was more than three years since I graduated. We should have savings.
Unexpectedly, my wife hesitated, her face turned red and white. I asked her what was wrong, and she said she had deposited a fixed term. I asked how much, one hundred thousand, and she said sometimes no. . I hugged her and said, no matter what happens, I hope she can be sincere.
It turned out that her younger brother participated in gambling when he was in school. In order to end it, she secretly paid off all the money we saved. I was very shocked and angry.

On weekdays, we are very good to his brother and basically cover all his college expenses. If he wants to buy anything, he only needs to send a link and his sister will buy it on Taobao. Shan, I have never had any objections, because I think my brother-in-law will also be my right-hand man in the future, and it is normal to help him.
But this time, the amount was a bit big, 150,000 yuan in three years, and we blocked it all. My wife also borrowed 50,000 yuan from a credit card, which meant that we couldn’t renovate our new house, and we still had debt.
My wife fell asleep with tears in her eyes. It was so pitiful. She was afraid that I would be angry and afraid that I would not get married, but she couldn’t bear to let her brother fall like this. She told me frankly that if she had to choose again, she would still I will help my brother without hesitation.
I thought about it and decided to accept it and hide it. I found a part-time job and was determined to plug the hole quickly. Then my wife became pregnant.
I borrowed money from friends to quickly renovate and hold a wedding quickly. I feel that two people are the greatest happiness together, and other problems can be solved.

After I gave birth to my eldest son, my mother came over to help me take care of the child. She also brought her and my dad’s pensions with her, and they took over all the family expenses.
The reason is that they can’t stand the way we live, without eating delicious food or buying new clothes. They don’t understand why we are so poor.
I lied and said it was because I wanted to change my house. The savings in my wife's hands increased again. In the same year, my brother-in-law graduated a year ago, got a girlfriend, and said he wanted to get married.
Because my wife and I have been living in different places, and my brother-in-law has returned to his hometown to stay with his parents, we have always felt that we owe it to our two elders, so we have settled the previous account and have no plans to ask for it again. Besides, my salary has also increased a lot. Second-rate.
But my wife proposed to spend all the remaining money to help my brother buy a wedding house. This time she wanted to discuss it with me. I firmly disagreed and only gave a quarter.
During the stalemate, my wife became pregnant again. She cried and begged me to help her for the sake of our two children. She couldn't ignore her brother. He wouldn't be able to marry him without a house.
I took out 200,000 and said that I didn’t want it anymore and that I didn’t need to pay it back because it was impossible to pay it back, but this was the last time and it was two-thirds of our deposit.
That year, my wife and I kept arguing, and both of us felt aggrieved. My mom still doesn’t know.
5.
The life of the brother-in-law was not stable. After getting married and giving birth to a son, they got divorced. The woman insisted not to let him go, so the brother-in-law sold the house and went out to work.
My father-in-law passed away in the same year, and my mother-in-law was struggling to raise her grandson alone in a small county town. My wife proposed that my mother-in-law take her nephew to live with us. I agreed.
My mother returned to her hometown, and my mother-in-law came. My mother left me one hundred thousand, but I didn’t tell my wife because it was too ironic. This time, I won’t take it out no matter what.
My mother took away the living expenses. From then on, we had to pay for everything. My mother-in-law was very friendly and managed our daily life very well.
I don’t mind raising another child. After all, he doesn’t have much to eat, and his brother’s clothes can be worn just right, and it doesn’t cost much. But the problem is that he had a cold and a high fever, and he got sick. icu causes complications.
I can't hold on to the five or six thousand dollars thrown in every day. After all, it's not my own child. Forgive me for being selfish. I ask my brother-in-law to pay, even if it's a loan, to save my child.
My brother-in-law just cried because he had no money. My wife also cried. I was really exhausted physically and mentally, so I went back to my hometown alone with my luggage, told my parents everything that happened over the years, and asked for advice.
My mother was very angry and insisted on my divorce, but my father advised me to make my own decision. He said that we should wait until the child recovers. They all cried and said, aren't you tired of holding on like this?

Tired, very tired, very tired, but every time I want to leave, I always think of her in college, so gentle, beautiful and kind, and my lovely two Children, they are very happy and innocent.
I know that my wife liked me for being kind at first, but this time I really wanted to escape. But later, under the persuasion of my wife, I returned to the hospital to save the child. Ten years later, I didn’t want to be unkind at the critical moment.
However, this is also my last kindness. I should have a serious talk with my wife and ask her to make a choice. I want to live my own simple life.
