teks: In Kedah, my in-laws' house is occupied by all the siblings including my brother-in-law and sisters-in-law. My mother-in-law strongly prohibits them from living separately. However, every time I come back to Kedah, my mother-in-law speaks badly about my sister-in-law. At first, I just listened and nodded. After all, I didn't know my sister-in-law at all. So, in the beginning of my marriage, I believed what my mother-in-law said and assumed that my sister-in-law was really problematic, to the point that my mother-in-law kept badmouthing her. My mother-in-law also forbids me from befriending or talking to my sister-in-law, fearing that I might adopt her bad behavior. Whenever I go back to Kedah, my in-laws' family, including my brother-in-law, would always criticize my sister-in-law. When my sister-in-law is not around, my mother-in-law would start talking about her non-stop. Even my husband's siblings would join in. At my in-laws' house, my sister-in-law is the one who cooks for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, except when she has school activities and doesn't have time to cook. But my mother-in-law would quickly criticize her for being lazy to cook. When my sister-in-law is resting in her room, my mother-in-law would complain about her not making breakfast. My in-laws' family treats my sister-in-law like a maid. My sister-in-law washes and hangs all the clothes, and even when she accidentally falls asleep while waiting for the laundry to finish, my mother-in-law would quickly label her as lazy. Usually, when my husband and I are around, my mother-in-law would call us just to show my sister-in-law's mistakes.
