A newly wedded girl was being welcomed
at the husband’s home in a traditional
manner.
She was asked to give a little speech.
She addressed as follows:
“My dear family members, I thank you for welcoming me in my new home and
family“,
she said “Firstly, with my presence i would
not want to create any
inconveniences by my being here. I mean
that I don’t want you all to change your way of life, your routine.“
“What do you mean my child?” asked her
Mother-In-Law.
What i mean is:
Those who used to wash dishes must carry
on washing them. Those who used to do the laundry must carry on doing it. Those
who cook shouldn’t stop on my account.
Those who used
to clean should continue cleaning.
As for me, I am here just to control
your son!.
