Father-in-law pretends to be mute for 17 years, truth revealed at New Year’s dinner, shocks and stuns the whole family, he confesses why he did it
Kenh14.vn website reported the story of Mr. Van Tho, 68 years old, from Yunnan Province, China. His family and neighbors knew him as a calm and gentle man. But unfortunately an accident left him mute for 17 years. However, the truth hidden inside him was just revealed during the New Year’s meal, shocking the whole family. Especially his daughter-in-law.
The story begins in 2008 when Father Wen was in a serious car accident. After being discharged from the hospital. He developed a language disorder, almost losing his ability to speak and repeat words fluently. He then lived a quiet life, communicating through his eyes and gestures. No one suspected anything because he always showed love and concern for everyone in the เว็บพนันออนไลน์ UFABET สมัครง่าย โปรโมชั่นมากมาย family. Especially his daughter-in-law who had just moved into the house 6 years ago.
Everything seemed to be going as it was, unless something unexpected happened during the family’s New Year’s meal. That day, when the whole family was sitting at the table eating, the youngest son spilled hot rice porridge on his father Wen. As he was in so much pain, he cried out in a clear voice, “It’s so hot!”
The atmosphere in the house was dead silent. Everyone was shocked to learn that Father Wen could speak. His son immediately asked, “Dad… what did you just say?” At that moment, Father Wen was obviously confused and shocked. With no other choice, he had to accept the fact that he had not been mute for the past 17 years.
According to Father Wen, faking muteness began after an accident in 2008. At the time, he did not actually lose the ability to speak, but only had temporary difficulty communicating due to the injury. However, he found that faking muteness made his family members pay more attention and take care of him. “At first, I thought I would only do it for a few days. But the longer it went on, the harder it was to get back to normal,” Father Wen admitted.
The surprising thing is that he uses this silence to observe and control his family members without anyone knowing. He knows everything from the quarrels between his son and daughter-in-law to the things his wife is hiding, but instead of intervening. He chooses to keep quiet and let everything take its course naturally.
This truth was a huge blow to all the family members. His son couldn’t hide his disappointment. “For the past 17 years, you didn’t trust me to tell you the truth?” His wife cried. “Why are you doing this? This family has been in a lie for so long.”
As the daughter-in-law calmed down somewhat, she said. “I just hope that Dad really loves the family and doesn’t test anyone’s heart like this again.” Despite being shocked, she still hoped that the family would be reconciled after this incident.
Although Father Wen explained and apologized to the family, the atmosphere at home was still not the same. Especially during the approaching Chinese New Year, his family was almost not happy and excited to welcome the new year. Father Wen himself said that living under the pretense of being mute for 17 years made him feel tired and lonely. “I just want everyone to pay more attention and care, but I didn’t think it would turn out like this,” he said.
Father Wen’s story spread throughout the village, becoming a hot topic of conversation among the neighbors. Although his actions received mixed reactions, some saw it as a warning to others about having honest conversations in family relationships.
Most agree that family should be a place of sincerity and trust. Small words can bond family members, while silence can sometimes destroy strong relationships.
