I bought a lipstick worth 100 yuan, but my husband scolded me for being a waste of money?

Chapter 01

Life is only a few decades in spring and autumn, time flies like an arrow, and the sun and the moon fly by. Time flies through the fingers in a blink of an eye and will never come back again.

Too many people always understand after experiencing too many things, being hurt too much, and shedding too many tears that they should not wrong themselves too much in their lifetime.

Especially in marriage, blindly tolerating and sacrificing oneself will not actually gain the understanding of the other half. Instead, it will make the other half trample on one's own bottom line.

In marriage, only by taking good care of yourself can you better take care of others. Treating yourself unfairly will only result in not caring.

Especially for women, too many women sacrifice themselves for the so-called "warm family". They have obviously suffered a lot of grievances, but they naively tell themselves "It doesn't matter, it will be better in the future." ”.

However, does such humiliation really bring happiness?

Ren Yaoyao didn't know what others got in exchange, but she completely regretted it. The humiliation and self-sacrifice she once had was like a joke. In the days to come, she decided to treat herself kindly.

Chapter 02

Ren Yaoyao comes from a good family. She is a woman who loves fantasy, poetry and distant places.

Before getting married, I always hoped to have a warm family and live the ordinary days after marriage as poetic and romantic with my husband.

After graduating from college, she did not follow her parents' arrangements to return to her hometown. Instead, she stayed in a big city and wanted to work hard for the future.

In the company, Ren Yaoyao and her colleague Zhou Zheng have a good impression of each other. They both work hard in the field and speak the same language.

After meeting each other's parents, the two held a wedding reception in Zhou Zheng's hometown and got married.

The two people who worked together in the big city were very frugal, especially Ren Yaoyao. Because she felt sorry for Zhou Zheng, she voluntarily gave up expensive cosmetics and big-name jewelry, and did not buy a new piece of clothing throughout the year.

You know, when she was not married, her quality of life was very high. She didn’t have to worry about her family, and her parents gave her money every month.

But after getting married, she knew that she was no longer alone and could no longer be willful. Moreover, after getting married, she could no longer ask her parents for money. In order to take care of Zhou Zheng's feelings, she became very calculating. got up.

After three years of frugality, the two finally scraped together enough for the down payment and took out a loan to buy a house of their own.

The moment she moved into her new home after the renovation, Ren Yaoyao felt extremely happy and secretly vowed to work harder with Zhou Zheng to live a better life.

Gradually, the two bought a car, had a baby, and established a foothold in this bustling big city.

Zhou Zheng was also promoted from a rookie who just joined the company to department head, while Ren Yaoyao became a budget-conscious housewife in order to better take care of her children.

Chapter 03

Ren Yaoyao is responsible for taking her daughter to kindergarten every day. During a parent-teacher meeting, she met a beautiful and fashionable matriarch sitting next to her.

After that parent-teacher meeting, the two became good friends. Although this parent is also a full-time housewife, she never stops thinking about herself. Seeing the other party's beautiful and confident look, Ren Yaoyao felt a little bit ashamed.

Once upon a time, she was also an exquisite woman who went out to dress up beautifully and pursue goals, but what about now?

In just a few years, the original ambition has long ceased to exist. What remains is the indifference of daily necessities and the inability to educate children.

She doesn’t know why her life is like this.

Once, the two of them made an appointment to go shopping together. Ren Yaoyao entered the cosmetics store she had not seen for a long time. She looked at the exquisitely packaged makeup shining under the light, just like every woman’s dream when she was young, but Ren Yaoyao had already She is no longer the girl who was willing to buy a dress worth a thousand yuan for herself. She chooses from thousands of choices and buys a lipstick that costs more than a hundred yuan.

Just a simple touch of color on the lips immediately made her look beautiful. Looking at herself in the mirror, Ren Yaoyao was as happy as a bird.

When Zhou Zheng returned home in the evening, he found that his wife was in a particularly good mood. The feeding process, which used to be a headache, was carried out calmly today. She kept smiling sweetly after putting the child to sleep. It aroused Zhou Zheng's curiosity.

Ren Yaoyao proudly handed the newly bought lipstick to Zhou Zheng like a treasure. This was the first time she bought cosmetics after getting married. She wanted to show it to her husband.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Zheng suddenly frowned. Seeing Ren Yaoyao happily asking if it looked good, he said with a cold face: "What kind of lipstick should I buy? It will only waste money on useless things." , Prodigal.”

“It’s just a lipstick.” Ren Yaoyao didn’t understand why Zhou Zheng suddenly changed his attitude. She hadn’t bought cosmetics for many years. Zhou Zheng would scold a lipstick that cost more than 100 yuan. Own.

Ren Yaoyao only felt aggrieved when she thought of the rings and gifts her friends showed off to her.

Zhou Zheng was still nagging and complaining that Ren Yaoyao didn't know how to run a household. The cost of a child's kindergarten is already high. If you can spend less, you should save money. Why buy useless cosmetics? You are not an unmarried person.

Chapter 04

Ren Yaoyao listened silently to Zhou Zheng's scolding, and then she understood the reason why her friends had earnestly persuaded her not to neglect herself because of taking care of the family.

She spent all her time taking care of her family, but in exchange she got no gifts, no romance during the holidays, and was not even qualified to buy lipstick.

Ren Yaoyao stopped paying attention to Zhou Zheng, who was still scolding him in anger. She turned around, took her phone, and placed an order for a bag that she had been thinking about for 10,000 yuan.

After showing Zhou Zheng a screenshot of the order, Ren Yaoyao expressed her intention to no longer treat her unfairly. If Zhou Zheng really had objections, he could file for divorce and she would not stop him.

Zhou Zheng looked at Ren Yaoyao's firm eyes. He originally wanted to be angry because of the huge bag, but he unconsciously stopped and went to sleep silently.

Since then, Ren Yaoyao no longer wears the cheapest clothes and has beautiful jewelry. And Zhou Zheng would occasionally give her gifts on holidays, and no longer dared to take Ren Yaoyao's contribution as a matter of course.

So, at any time, women should not compromise themselves for the sake of their family.

You have to know that only when people do not treat themselves badly can they not be treated badly by others. Only when people love themselves can they be loved.

Life is short, you must do the things you like, buy the things you like, and don’t sacrifice yourself to help others.

Before you love others, you must first love yourself. Loving yourself does not mean blindly buying yourself famous brands and enjoying the best material treatment. It means thinking more about yourself in every moment of your life, not only spending your energy on it. Spend it on others.

Olde said: "Loving yourself is the beginning of a lifelong romance." When a person has more self-awareness, he can better safeguard his own interests.

I hope every woman knows how to love herself.
