A Nigerian lady has shared how her prospective mother-in-law put her through an unexpected test before considering her worthy of marrying her 39-year-old son.

The lady, who shared her ordeal on TikTok, recounted how she was asked to prove her domestic skills by staying with her fiancé's mother for a week.

According to the lady identified as @glammedbymimz, her fiance's mother doubted her ability to care for her son, labeling her a "baddie" and questioning her cooking skills.

To prove her worth, she was tasked with cooking and cleaning for the older woman for about one week.

On the first day of her trial, she was instructed to prepare egusi soup to impress her prospective mother-in-law.

She took to the kitchen and prepared the dish, and after serving the soup, she received a surprisingly positive response from the woman, who declared that she had done well.

However, her relief was dampened by the revelation that her wedding date would not be set until 2027, two years from the time of her test.

She narrated:

"POV: My mother-in-law to be asked me to cook egusi soup to impress her before I can get married to her son. I followed my fiance to go see his mother and the woman looked at me and called me a 'baddie'. She said I cannot be able to take care of her son. That I don't know how to cook. She said the only way I can marry her son if I can stay with her for one week to cook and clean for her back to back.

"Today na day one. She say make I cook egusi soup to impress her. Na the egusi soup I dey cook like this. I put 6 Maggi. If she purge, no be my business. I don cook the soup finish. I don serve her. She ate it and said I did well. She will be the one to give us date to get married. She said it will be in 2027. Her son is 39 years. Why does she want him to wait for two years before getting married? Abi she wants to bring another woman? Me wey pin, after 5years of dating."
