Chapter 240: The Meat Zongzi You Made Tastes Good
"Ziluo, think about it. Why is your sister Qingxiang working so hard?" Ye Muyu asked, changing the subject.
After hesitating for a while, Chu Ziluo tentatively replied, "Because Sister Qingxiang is excellent and more people will like her."
"Then do you think the people who like Sister Qingxiang are drawn to her as a person or the money her skills bring?" Ye Muyu didn't want to sound too practical but these were things young ladies had to understand sooner or later.
After saying this, she subconsciously looked at Chu Heng. He was a traditional man from ancient times and Ye Muyu wondered if he would be displeased by her mentioning the independence of women.
Seemingly sensing her intentions, Chu Heng casually took a bite of a meat zongzi and said, "The meat zongzi you made is quite delicious."
"?" Ye Muyu was a bit puzzled.
Before she could figure out what Chu Heng meant, Chu Ziluo had already answered her, "Mom, it should be the money Sister Qingxiang's skills can bring."
"Then, what else do you think a woman, besides her skills, has that her future family would care about?" Ye Muyu finished speaking and suddenly understood what Chu Heng meant. He was just casually finding an excuse to stay.
As for what he might think about these shocking statements, Ye Muyu could already sense it, so she didn't intend to hide or withhold anything.
"There's also... the ability to bear sons." Chu Ziluo poked her hand and said.
Ye Muyu: "..." For a moment, she didn't know how to respond. It seemed that the issue of favoring sons over daughters was also a problem.
"What else?"
Sighing in her heart, Ye Muyu decided to bypass this matter. After all, women who couldn't bear sons were a minority.
"Well... I remembered. There's the natal family too." Chu Ziluo quickly raised her head and looked at Ye Muyu and Chu Heng. In fact, when she was studying women's arts, her cousins were very envious of her.
It seemed to be because of her father.
"Mom, Sister Qingxiang said that to marry into a good family and live a good life, not only should the natal family work hard but one must also strive for it oneself."
"The other cousins also envy me for having a talented father."
"But I think Mom is the best."
After listening to her, Ye Muyu couldn't help but chuckle. This child, who seemed timid was poking at her father's sore spot in front of him. She was probably not aware that her words might upset Chu Heng.
Chu Heng remained expressionless, maintaining an 'I didn't hear anything and don't care about anything' demeanor.
However, Chu Ziluo, who was looking at Ye Muyu with a smile and sensing Chu Heng's high-cold atmosphere, finally realized what she had said.
She hurriedly covered her mouth.
Looking at Chu Heng, she explained anxiously, "Dad, I didn't mean that... Actually, you are good in my heart."
"Don't be angry."
Seeing the child anxiously explaining, Chu Heng's resentment seemed to dissipate. He looked at Chu Ziluo and said, "It's okay. What you said isn't wrong."
"Dad, you are really good." Chu Ziluo breathed a sigh of relief and sincerely said.
Ye Muyu restrained her smile, turned her head to see that Chu Heng didn't really mind and then relaxed. She reached out and patted Chu Ziluo's hand, saying, "It's good that you understand. Mom can be so at ease because we have your dad."
"Do you understand?"
"Mom, I know. I will face it with a calm mind. As for the future husband, it's not that he chooses me, I choose him. He must be responsible and able to protect us, just like Dad."
