My wife's box was pried open by her mother-in-law just after the wedding. What does she mean?

My husband's family is in the suburban countryside, and my in-laws farm at home, but because they are close to the urban area, they earn 70 thousand to 80 thousand a year. Both parents work in public institutions, with stable income and more than enough family conditions.

Because my parents both work in the system and pay great attention to face, when they got married, my dad said that the bride price given to their daughter by colleagues was120,000, which was not too bad. According to the conditions of my husband's family, they were allowed to take150,000, and they added another 50,000 on the wedding day.

Unexpectedly, the smiling mother-in-law suddenly became sad and said that she had just bought a house for our wedding and really had no money. Then she said that her husband and his brother would get married in two years, otherwise the bride price would be 10 thousand or 20 thousand.

My dad was not happy on the spot after listening to it. Is it reasonable to say one or two thousand? I said that the bride price is to take care of face, and I will pay it back to you when I get married. Will I cheat you of your money? If you are really worried, I can write you an IOU in front of so many people.

When my father-in-law saw that his father was angry, he quickly came out to make amends and said that he would give his son a bride price, not to mention just going through the motions! When he said this sentence, he particularly emphasized "going through the motions".

My parents are angry when they look at it, and they don't want me to marry when they get home. But later, my husband-in-law sent a bride price of 1.5 million according to my dad's request, and my father-in-law apologized to my parents in person, which made them feel better.

On the wedding day, my parents prepared 200,000 cash in advance as promised to my in-laws, wrapped it in red silk and pressed it at the bottom of my dowry box. This is called "closet money" in our place. Generally, my husband's family can't move. I need to take it out and tidy it up myself.

At the wedding ceremony, when my husband and I offered tea to thank our parents, my parents gave my husband 9999 and 1000 1 red envelopes respectively. My in-laws didn't give me red envelopes, and whispered to me, Don't mind, son, after giving your bride price, the family really can't get any money!

I'm really sorry to hear this. Isn't this a public expression of dissatisfaction with my bride price? Although I think they have gone too far, I try not to have an attack on the big day.

But when the wedding was over, the scene I saw when I returned to my new house made me unable to calm down again. Because my wedding box was pried open, I was surprised and opened it quickly. Fortunately, the money is still there, but obviously, the red silk that wrapped the money has been touched.

I roared with anger and asked who had rummaged through my box. I'll call the police if you don't tell me! I was shouting, and my husband came and hugged me and told me not to shout, saying it was his mother. Because I was worried that my dad didn't bring back the bride price money like he said, I came to see it when no one was around.

After listening to my husband, I was completely speechless! I told him that your mother didn't want to give the bride price because she didn't respect me. Today, she broke into the box behind my back because she didn't respect me and my family. Since she doesn't have the minimum trust and respect for us, why get married? Divorce if you can't!

My husband saw that I was angry and kept apologizing to me, but this happened on the wedding day, which really made me tired. I want to divorce immediately, for fear of being laughed at, but I don't want to divorce. I can't even imagine where this marriage will end up.
