Crypticity
First, don't go with the stereotypical idea that a Chinese mother-in-law is going to be an enemy. Respect, try to communicate or interact directly and sincerely (not just through your other half). Good will is half your ticket. Second, don't live in denial that you can always play by western rules. There aren't western expectations on the side of the in-laws, so give and take is the prescription. I get along with my in-laws by the above. I taught my mother-in-law Angry Birds just yesterday. Had a good laugh.
