A woman’s second mother should be her mother-in-law, that is, her husband’s mother. Like your husband, she should also be called her mother, and she should also fulfill the obligation of filialpiety and support. Because she is your child’s grandmother, her mother-in-law is also called her mother. Some mother-in-law relations are as good as her own mother. In the relationshipbetween mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, as long as they care for each other, they can get along well
I’ve searched the Internet for a long time recently, but I can’t find it. I only have a little information: The Second Mother is a short story written by Ba Jin in 1932. The story takesplace in a small city. The little hero died when hisparents were young, and lived in a widowed uncle’s house.
This child is especially envious of the little servant’s dear father and mother. “I think I need a mother like his mother, but it’s no use. I can’t make a mother out of nothing. People can only be born once, so there can only be one mother, and my mother is dead. ” Physiologically and ethically, the absence of mother is an irreparable regret for this young narrator. But one night, my uncle took him to the theater to see aplay, which coincided with a very beautiful middle-aged woman who was very familiar with her uncle. The child became very interested in this middle-aged beauty, and in theprocess of watching theplay, he unconsciously became close and finally sat in her arms. At the end of theplay, the woman asked the child, “You haven’t called me yet. What do you want to call me?” The child “began to look upat her face with wide eyes, a little reluctant topart with this lovely face so soon. I was a little moved. I didn’t know why, even I didn’t understand myself, so I called two words’ Mom’ one after another”. On such a night, the woman who met by chance, because of aperformance, the children thought that it shouldprobably be mom, right? From then on, the “mother” began to associate with the son. Sometimes, my uncle joined in, and the three of them shared their family happily. As time went by, the woman became more and more intimate in the image of her mother. One night, she told her story. She was sold to the theater since she was a child. She was once a famous actress, and now she is her uncle’s lover, but she is a man. The child looked at her face and said, “Oh, so you are a man, too.” “Yes, I am a man. How can we continue in the future?” The child said, “I still want to call you mom.” When the truth comes out, the little heroprefers to enter theperformance situation, still applies the cultural model on the stage to the ethical relationshipin real life, and still feels that he can “create” a mother in the void, and this woman “might as well” is the mother; For a woman, “she” just thinks that this “son” reminds her of her long-lost and dead brother. So, the fake father, fake mother and fake son lived a quiet and happy family life together. If it was a war, this family might go on like this.
