My MIL Called My Quiet Mom ‘Ugly’ at My Wedding – She Couldn’t Stand Up for Herself, but I DidMy mother-in-law branded my quiet mother “ugly” at my wedding, and I just couldn’t let it go. I thought I had the ideal revenge plot, but when the backlash started, I realized I might have gone too far.For the hundredth time, I adjusted my veil as I stood in front of the mirror. My hands were trembling; perhaps from excitement or nerves? Mum appeared behind me, teary-eyed.

You too have a wonderful appearance.”She fidgeted at her dress’s hem. “Are you sure it’s not too plain?” I told her, “It’s perfect,” “You’re perfect.”Mom gave me a grin, but I could see doubt in her eyes.
