As many have said - you need to clearly tell your husband what worries you, what angers you and how you think this should be fixed (approached). But first of all ask him if he really wants to work in the shop. If he doesn't, then you should talk about what he would like to do and how he sees your future together, what compromises each of you can do to support each other.

Also, I know it's hard, but maybe defend your husband in front of her, and say you like it the way he handles things and you trust him. Maybe try to turn every of her complains into a joke. So she would see that she has to talk to him herself, and that you have her son's back :) And tell her if she continues bossing you around you'll not produce her any grandchildren (¬‿¬ ) (≧▽≦). Sorry. I don't really know how to help you with the she-devil (。•́︿•̀。). But you should stand up for yourself. If someone is using your kindness to manipulate you, and you know they do, it's your responsibility to defend yourself. Or be used forever (×_×)


P. S.: Visiting washroom seems like a valid reason to leave work to me xD. Also, I personally find smiling shop keepers creepy (≧▽≦). Polite is enough for me.

Hi mif4n! The problem is whenever we talk about it he always underestimate said problem, saying 'it's unimportant' and when we talk about the future he always said I'm thinking too far ahead--which frustrates me :'D He said he will inherit his parents business but his behavior at work is... Very grumpy and sometimes he can be really impolite. What's worse is he doesn't realize it's rude. 

I tried the soft way but it didn't work. I mean, I always defend him whenever his mother complains to me about him but when he's not showing any improvement/effort in this matter, it's not helping. Sometimes I wonder if he's being obnoxious on purpose Q_Q I want to trust him but he once said he'll tell his mother to stop complaining to me--and when we fought it was clear that he haven't even talked about this to his mother. 

When I think about the future, I'm worried because if he can't do manage the store well, will I have to tolerate his parents complaining & ordering me around everyday? I want us to be independent but it's hard when my husband is financially depended on his mother (his mother gave him the monthly salary and I think this is why it's hard for him to stand up to his mom). In any case, my stance right now is for us to leave and live independently. That way, he'll start thinking about how to pay the bills and provide for his new family. Because I think one of the reason why he have bad behaviours at work is because there is no consequences

I agree that you need some independence. I hope you'll resolve it soon and finally start picking the good fruits of marriage :) Also, I want to apologise for calling your mother-in-law the "she-devil". I was joking, of course. But now I'm ashamed of my wording <(_ _)>.

It's okay, mif4n~ don't worry about it. I know you were joking but honestly speaking, I sometimes wanted to swear at the in laws 😂 so yup, all is good~
