Bea Hayden Kuo has been married to Jacky Heung for 6 years, and they have a daughter and a son, both deeply cherished by her mother-in-law, Charles Heung’s wife, Tiffany Chen. Recently, Tiffany shared bits about her relationship with her daughter-in-law, believing that the secret to a happy family is “to treat your daughter-in-law kindly.”
Tiffany recently posted a video on the social media platform Xiaohongshu, expressing that she couldn't understand why anyone would want to “make things difficult for their daughter-in-law,” calling it a very strange thing to do. She said she has never spoken a single bad word about Bea Hayden, not even anything serious. Whatever Bea Hayden says, she simply agrees; whatever Bea wants, she will provide.
Tiffany revealed that she once promised Bea Hayden to buy land. When Bea saw a vacant lot near her family home in Taipei, Tiffany immediately helped her buy it. After purchasing two plots, Bea noticed that the lots next door were also up for auction, so Tiffany found a way to petition the court and bought those together as well. In the end, they bought a total of four plots, which could be connected together.
Bea Hayden loves animals and has many ideas. Tiffany said: “She (Bea Hayden) is a major landowner now, but she still hasn't finalized a design. She’s been working with a designer for over a year, and still hasn't figured it out. Her plans are huge—she might build a bird area, dog area, cat area, plus gardens, trying to balance having flowers and plants everywhere. What she wants, perhaps even the designer can’t imagine.”
Tiffany recalled that when she was a daughter-in-law, her own mother-in-law never scolded her, but would say things were “for her own good.” For example, when she was pregnant, her mother-in-law told her not to eat lychees or longan, saying they would cause overheating; if she wanted to eat watermelon, she was told it was too cooling. Bananas, she was told, would make the baby cramp—eventually, she was told not to eat any fruit at all. This made Tiffany very resentful, but she never talked back to her mother-in-law out of respect.
Therefore, when Tiffany herself became a mother-in-law, she believed in “not nagging at your daughter-in-law,” because a daughter-in-law would be unhappy if nagged. Let her do whatever she wants; let the son be managed by the daughter-in-law—she actually feels at ease this way. She said: “A harmonious family brings prosperity. If you treat your daughter-in-law poorly, you are actually making things difficult for your son. If he sides with his wife, he loses his mother; if he sides with his mother, he loses his wife. Both choices are wrong. So why force your son to choose? Why make things hard for your son?”
In the end, Tiffany Chen said that you should treat your daughter-in-law well and never mistreat her; she won’t try to drive a wedge between husband and mother-in-law. Also, daughter-in-law and mother-in-law should not live together, as treating your daughter-in-law poorly will only lead to bad outcomes. She said: “Cherish your daughter-in-law well. The most important thing is that your son loves her—then the two of them can truly be happy together.”
