Money in my father-in-law's name was regularly transferred to my bank account. As a wife, I didn't know about this until now, and I had to ask my father-in-law why he was transferring the money! I thought. I asked my ex-husband, but he didn't give me any answer. So... I called my father-in-law. I found out today that my father-in-law had been transferring money to me. I'm sorry for the trouble. XX-kun won't tell me what the money is for... As I was talking, my father-in-law interrupted me and said, "XX-chan, you're spending too much money, saying it's for living expenses! XX-chan has worked hard to earn it, and you're spending it so much, who do you think you are?!" ??? What. Me? You mean I'm spending it? I manage with 40,000 yen a month? ? No matter what I try to say, my father-in-law won't listen. He just kept blaming and blaming and insulting me, and then just hung up the phone. I was so confused... No way. This is no time to be confused! I told my ex-husband what his father-in-law had said to him, and asked him what he meant. "I lost money on the slots, so I decided that XX was saying they didn't have enough money to live on." ...Hey, ex-husband. Did you say slots? Do you have time to go to the slots with your busy daily work schedule? And now, something became clear. [No. 1] He wasn't coming home late because he was working hard, but he was playing slots every day. [No. 2] All of his salary (350,000 yen at the time about 17 years ago) was spent on slots. [No. 3] If I said that I was spending too much, my in-laws would give me money without any restrictions. [No. 4] Since I was a child, they have always given me money if I asked, so I don't feel guilty at all. [No. 5] If I blamed them, I could get sympathy and it was easier to borrow money. [No. 6] By the way, he played slots every day while I was in the hospital, so he didn't have time to go to the hospital (← he said he didn't have time to go). He was in a terrible state, and his finances were constantly showing. I first checked to see if he had any other debts, and from that day on, I decided to manage his money. But. I realized that my thinking was too naive...
