My sister-in-law was deaf and mute for 7 years, but when my brother d!3d and the family got together to divide the assets, she burst into tears and said something that blew us all away.
My sister-in-law used to be a lively and energetic person. But one day, in an accident on his way home from work, he lost his hearing completely, and from that moment on, he didn’t utter another word.
For 7 years, he lived in silence with my brother, without complaining or arguing.
All the chores around the house—from taking care of my in-laws to raising our young son—were done in silence.
He communicated only using pen and paper, or sometimes with text messages on his phone if necessary.
Honestly, I admired her.
But one day, bad luck struck us.
MY BROTHER PASSED AWAY SUDDENLY
My brother died of a sudden stroke while working in the factory.
He didn’t have time to leave one last wish. He left no will.
My parents had passed away a long time ago, so the division of the inheritance became a fuse that lit the whole family.
In my family there were two brothers: my older brother, my sister-in-law’s husband, and me, the younger uncle, who took care of the house and the documents.
Right at the funeral, the younger uncle let out a cold phrase:
– The house and land are in the name of our parents, they are considered family property. Now that my brother has passed away, it is only right that it be redistributed. It has to be distributed among the brothers, you can’t let my sister-in-law keep everything.
MY SISTER-IN-LAW REMAINED SILENT
He wore the mourning suit, with his long hair down, and his hands trembled as he offered the cup of water.
He did not utter a word. He didn’t react either.
The family murmured:
“She lives at the expense of her husband’s family. “The brother died young, the wife is mute, so this is the end…”
We sat down to discuss, and someone even proposed to sell the house and divide it into three parts: one for my sister-in-law, one for the younger uncle and the rest to be divided among the other relatives.
I felt indignant, but I didn’t know what to say. Everyone thought that, since my sister-in-law was mute, she didn’t understand anything.
BUT JUST AS EVERYONE WAS ABOUT TO SIGN THE PAPERS TO DIVIDE THE HOUSE, SHE SPOKE UP
He got up, his eyes red, slapped his hand on the table, and burst into tears.
His voice, hoarse and breathy, but clearly audible, said:
“This house… it’s the money from my kidney that I sold to build it…!
The whole room fell into a deathly silence.
Trembling, she pulled out an old, yellowish photocopy: a medical certificate from the kidney removal surgery from 8 years ago.
I took it, with icy hands.
“When my husband was unemployed and was planning to go home to the village, I… I sold my kidney so I could pay the deposit on the land and build this house from scratch.
He said, slowly but with every word clear.
THE WHOLE FAMILY FELL SILENT. THE YOUNGER UNCLE WAS IN A COLD SWEAT.
No one said anything else.
From the person who tried to take over the house to the relatives who were gossiping, they looked at each other with pale faces.
The woman who had been called “mute” for 7 years… He had only remained silent because of his suffering, not because of ignorance or lack of intelligence.
He got up, picked up the papers, and went to his room.
From that moment on, no one dared to mention the word “division” again.
A single sentence, after 7 years of silence…
It was enough to make everyone lower their heads.
