My wife went to get her hair done for ₱7,000, came home without money to go to the market, and lied to me that she had lost money.
I knew everything, but I didn’t say it, I just thought bitterly: “No matter how hard the effort is, my wife considers it a waste.” Extremely angry, I decided to punish: buy all the eggs with tofu, make my wife and children eat it continuously for a month. I want my wife to remember life, know what is wasted, what is the consequence of lying.
Every day, the rice tray is only full of tofu filled with fish sauce and fried eggs until it is boring. My wife is very angry, the child is sulking, but I am still stubborn:
“Eat! Money does not fall from the sky. A dong is also sweat and tears!”
However… One day, as I was going to work in the middle of the day, I received a panicked call:
“Brother, go home immediately! His wife and children… You are a liar!”
I was shocked, resigned from work and hurriedly left the company. When I got home, the scene in front of me made my heart explode: my wife and children were pale, collapsed on the dining table with a tray of cold rice filled with eggs and tofu.
The doctor said doubtfully:
“Eating monotonously like this for a long time, the body is tired, the child lacks nutrients, the wife has low blood pressure, if it is a little slower… I am not sure if I can save it.”
I sat on the floor, my hands shaking. Around, the neighbors whispered:
“What kind of person is so narrow-minded…”
“Is it worth going to this shallow?”
At that moment, my heart was pounding. Although the other three million were angry, the price to be paid for this blind punishment was a thousand times more expensive…
