      It’s never a good idea to stay with in-laws. Especially MILs and DILs staying together. I know I would never be able to live in harmony with my MIL…and I think she knows it too.

        相见容易, 同住难...for me, 相见都难。
        The youngest son wanted them to sell their flat and stay with him and his wife...you know what will happen if there is any disagreement.

            Me too. But DH not eldest son and PILs helped looked after kids of his eldest siblings (managing their households, maids, doing marketing, ferrying kids to/fro childcare and tution) so I will definitely go through the roof if anyone ever suggest them moving into my house. Anyways, my house is the smallest and being "most unfamiliar with the dynamics in my family, it will be more comfortable for them to move in with the other siblings". PILs helped them so much but none offered to lend maid to PILs to help in CNY springcleaning.

              The youngest one pays the most allowance...so he's eyeing parents' flat.

              The bimbo sister married to angmoh also wants the flat...they are like vultures :slapshead:

              It's really a shame and embarrassment to see those 2 suckers behaving like that. Told hubby NO WAY can the flat be sold and money given to youngest one...he is capable of throwing them out when things sour. At most, they can move into his flat (which was what he suggested) but rent out...after hearing this, that vulture shut up.

                    Aiyoh, my FIL passed away. MIL has a flat of her own. My SIL just separated from her husband, rent out their apartment. Now she moved in to her mother’s place with 2 kids and maid.


                    Wonder if MIL pass away, who is going to get the money from the apartment?

                    Anyhow, who is not eyeing on MONEY. I saw people even quarrelling during the funeral about the distribution of money.

                      True. My PIL are richer then me and DH, my DH's brother who is my BIL and his wife are much poorer then us and PIL. So his wife always like to bootlick PIL, but PIL not stupid, they know what she is doing. because of that, my PIL always only ask me and my DH and our kids out and not them. Then they start getting jealous and I even overheard them saying that in future what will happen to the inheritance. OMG... :slapshead:

                        The ONLY asset the 2 old ones have is that 3 room flat. Maybe some jewelry and cash. But my BILs themselves all have own flat…even bimbo SIL herself have a big house in america.

                        Btw, both of them around and they are not looking after their health…nobody knows what will happen at the rate this goes on. Eat the cheapest economy rice…they are under-nourished. But old one told hubby she rather die than quit smoking. Unreasonable.
