its a pretty common conflict... hmmm
it might be because the mom in law doesn't want his son to replace her by his wife
or
she thinks that the wife ain't good enough for her son
or
she prefers to be the one to have chosen a wife for the son
or
she thinks the wife won't treat her son well
or
the mom in law will be seen as nosy by the wife because she might want to get involved in the life of her son (and this will be seen as negative by the wife=conflicts)
or
she would like a "better" mother to her grand children
... now when it comes to the wife (daughter in law)
she might constantly be in conflict with the mom in law because she wants to live her marriage life with her husband her own way... not in the way the mom in law wants!!!

I often see it because it's the other way around.
Like, the mothers of my or my sisters ex bfs can be unbearable and it's like they purposely do all these things to "test" you.
My mom is not like that and I tell my brothers how lucky they are lol or my brothers wives i should say haha
What women? My mother loved her mother-in-law and viceversa. Even when my parents we're just boyfriend and girlfriend, my father's mother suggested that he wouldn't be the perfect man for her, that she deserves better. Now what mother would advice a girlfriend agaisnt her son?
Isn't it obvious? Women feel threatened by a mother-in-law because they are the other woman in their husband's life who may influence him or test his loyalty to her, putting the wife in a vulnerable position.
Simple women in competition with one another. The mother is seen as mean or antagonistic for doing things the way she always has, but that inevitably is different to the wifes way of doing things. Generational gaps, modern vs antiquated ideas, and techniques in living all act as catalyst to these sorts of problems. Men often see this same type of conflict in the workplace, where the old guys who are about to retire can't be bothered to learn new tech that the youngins are power houses at. The old guy feels threatened, so he puts the young guy down. The young guy feels inadequate, and the fires get stoked.
In your case and to some extend my example in the workplace, the saddest thing about the situation is if both people accepted the other for who they were and worked together, the synergy between experience and youthful exuberance would make them a formidable team.

In most cases it's the other way round some mothers don't want to give up their precious sons and no woman is ever good enough.
I love my mother in law, she is a saint :0
