      Mine rattles away in their dialect… at dinners and gathering when she didn’t want me to ‘hear’ the gossip… …

      The fun part is …I can fully comprehend her lingo, I just act blur…

          - Watch TV/play iPhone and ignore them.

          - Go in room, close door & sometimes lock (cos' MIL may still barge in)
          - Act blur, dun understand what she say
          - MIL likes to 'test' if I sweep her room by throwing tissue on the floor. Sometimes I'll sweep but leave the tissue behind so that she think I din and sweep herself. Sometimes, I'll just pick up the tissue and dun sweep her room.
          Childish & Cheap thrill but shiok leh. 😆

            Best part was she will start whispering to my helper as well and my helper will ask me why granma behave so secretive, want a cup of tea also must pull me aside and whisper. Haha.


            These days, I cannot be bothered.

            Lol helper also :rotflmao: :rotflmao: I am sure all the MIL's are the same and went to the same school 😆


            Ha ha ha ... ya, helper also. When we went to anr of my SIL's place with a helper, my MIL actually helped the helper to wash the dishes and act super nice to her. Her helper will then be full of praises of her. Wonder if she is trying to get into good book of her rich son in law. :siao:

              My mil likes to follow my DH into the kitchen and then start whispering away ... really can't stand her doing that all the time.


              Oh yeah same here.... when I am in the kitchen DH will come and talk to me over there... then MIL will just follow him and then she will just talk to him as if i am invisible... then will try to become tired then take him out to the living to talk more :stupid:

              Hey same here...always whispering don't know what stuff to him...like some big time secret. I couldn't be bothered to even ask hubby what his mother tells him...bochap lor. Next year CNY, should bring ipad along. If really do that, then the 2 hours there will not be difficult to pass. :imcool:
