"My brother-in-law and his wife came visiting my husband and I today as usual.
Luckily for him, I had made bitterleaf soup, his favorite
So I teased him:
“How did you know I cooked your favorite today?”
He replied immediately:
“What are you waiting for? Go bring am come. You know I don’t joke with your bitterleaf soup.”
We all laughed, I dished out the food and we all ate.
When they were leaving, he asked me to pack some soup for him to take home, so I did.
Hours later, his wife texted me:
She said she knows her husband jokes a lot but I should stop encouraging him. She also said she was disappointed I packed soup for him and asked me how I’d feel if my husband was collecting soup from another woman to keep at home.
Then she added:
“The last time you gave him soup, he barely ate any soup I cooked until he finished yours.”
Honestly, I was shocked.
I told her I couldn’t possibly deny my husband’s elder brother food in our house after he openly asked for it. I also told her if it truly bothers her, she should speak to her husband directly because my husband himself would be upset if I refused his brother something that simple"
