WHAT WOULD YOU Do...?

A woman tells her husband that she is going to visit her sick mum in the village. She goes on Friday and returns on Sunday, with plenty of fruits and food stuff, saying they are from her mum to the husband and the children. Then, the husband gently asks her about her mother's health and how she was doing, to which she replies that she took her to the hospital in the village and she is recovering and getting better. The wife adds that her mother insisted that she must re-visit the
village in a few days, to spend at least a week with her. "I'm worried about Mama" the wife
crooned, with tears swelling in her eyes. "She'll be fine, dear." Husband lovingly replied.
The husband then politely asks her to take the items to the kitchen. As she enters, she meets her mother preparing food in the kitchen. Apparently, her mum came visiting since the Friday that she left home.
You can imagine the plight of this woman. stuck, shocked, dazed and dumb founded at the kitchen door! whether to go in and drop the items' from mama', or return to her husband in the living room!

How would you handle this if you were the husband or what explanation how would  you defend yourself if you were the woman?

Please your humble opinion is required...
