Chapter 33 Pre-marital Guidance_1
Throughout history, the complex web of in-law relationships—with her mother-in-law, her husband’s sisters, and the wives of her husband’s brothers—would confront a daughter step by step as she married.
This is a problem no one can evade, and it is the most realistic issue in today’s society.
"If you don’t do well, people won’t blame you; they will say we, as parents, haven’t taught our daughter properly. Your sister has already made us feel ashamed before the Horne Family; you can’t deepen our sense of guilt. Glades is a good man, the kind that’s hard to find even with a lantern. Many women out there want to get involved with him. You must trust him, don’t be suspicious without reason, as it will affect your marital relationship. No matter his attitude towards you, you are already legally married. Just do your best, and he will treat you well. Besides, he has always cared about you, ever since you were born. Dad thinks that perhaps he doesn’t love you for now, and marrying you was a matter of expediency, but he will definitely fall in love with you..." Chris Bluen earnestly advised her.
Julia Bluen listened quietly.
A sense of heaviness welled up in her heart; her father’s words were all too real. Considering Adele Horne’s attitude and the complex family dynamics of the Horne Family, she knew that once she stepped into the Horne household in six days, it would be like waging a war without smoke.
It’s not easy to be the wife of a prominent family.
Two cups of hot tea were gently placed before the father and daughter.
Scarlett Taylor stood before them, sighing softly and restraining her feigned jubilation. How could parents not worry?
She slowly continued her husband’s words, "Julia, your mother-in-law is quite angry about your sister’s actions, and she might take her frustration out on you. You must learn to protect yourself." Scarlett Taylor had experienced the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law struggle. She also hadn’t overlooked Mila Anderson’s anger after Ruby Bluen’s elopement. Her biggest worry was that Mila would vent her frustration on Julia.
