시어머니께 전화 한 통 안 하면서, 나에게 효도 훈수를 두는 아주버님

I made the doctor appointment for my mother-in-law's knee, went grocery shopping with my husband, and even went to my in-laws' house the day before Chuseok to help with the food preparations. It wasn't that I begrudged the money. My mother-in-law even contributed the money she spent on groceries later. However, the problem is that the things I did out of my heart began to be regarded as a daughter-in-law's duty, something taken for granted. On the evening of Chuseok, just as I was finally catching my breath after standing in the kitchen all day, my brother-in-law—who doesn't call my mother-in-law even once a month—spoke to me. "Sister-in-law, please call my mom more often. She's secretly feeling a bit hurt." At that moment, I felt truly devastated. There is a clear difference between doing something voluntarily and doing something you are forced to do. What do you think? Is being good to a mother-in-law a daughter-in-law's duty, or is it a choice that must come from the heart?
