Kneading machine

There was a young woman who got married. Her parents decided to gift her a dough-making machine.

However, her in-laws would have none of it, and promptly returned the machine to her parents.

"We don't believe in taking any dough-ry," said her father-in-law huffily.

"Yes," added her mother-in-law. "We have no knead for these things."

Yours and mine

Once, a couple went on an India tour. With them were their children, and both the children's grandmothers. Taking her mother was the husband's idea, and the wife had suggested taking his mother.

On the way, his mother found the strange cities uncomfortable, and became quite cranky. The man got very upset, but what could he say? It was his mother being crabby after all!

For some days, he bore it in silence, but then he couldn't stand it any more. He couldn't say anything to his mother, so he flared up at his wife instead: "See how well-behaved my mother-in-law is? Yours is nothing but trouble!"

मेरी तेरी

एक दम्पति भारत दर्शन के लिए निकल पड़ा। साथ थे उनके बच्चे, और बच्चों की दादी और नानी। नानी को ले जाने की आदमी ने ठानी थी, और दादी को ले जाने का उनकी पत्नी का सुझाव था।

नए शहरों में दादी को काफी तकलीफ हुई, और वह चिड़-चिड़ी हो गयीं। कुछ देर के बाद आदमी से अपनी माँ का व्यव्हार सहा नहीं गया। कहते तो क्या कहते? हरकतें तो उन्ही की माँ कर रही थीं।

कुछ दिनों तक चुप रहे, पर फिर अपने को रोक न पाए। माँ को तो कुछ कह न सके, पत्नी पर बरस पड़े: "देखो! मेरी सास कितनी शांति से चल रही है - तुम्हारी सास हमें कितना तंग कर रही है!"

After Marriage

"You know, after marriage, you should always gain some weight."

"??? Why on earth?"

"So that your spouse gets more than they expected..."
