Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

Xu Shuhua was doing other things with his hands and did not raise his head to look at him. His tone was calm: "You have been persuaded by Xi'er and you want to persuade me to allow her to practice martial arts, right?"

Gu Yunji choked and was speechless.

He was a little angry and sad about his daughter hurting her body to force her parents, but thinking about it carefully, when it came to Gu Zhaoxi's desire to practice martial arts, his heart was already on her side, and he subconsciously wanted to persuade his wife to let his daughter do what she wanted. .

There was silence in the room for a long time. Xu Shuhua sighed and said slowly: "I don't want Xi'er to practice martial arts. It's not that I don't want her to suffer. It's not that I think girls should be quiet and dignified. They can't be beaten or killed like men."

"I just think that practicing martial arts is just the beginning for Xi'er. Once she takes this step, we will not be able to predict her future."

Xu Shuhua raised his head and looked at him: "Yunji, you should know very well what kind of temper our daughter is. Do you think that if she learns martial arts and has the ability to protect herself, she will stay with us obediently in the future and become a so-called An obedient child?"

"Wouldn't she want to get out of the house and see a wider world? Wouldn't she want to see all the mountains, rivers and lakes like her third cousin? Of course, there is nothing wrong with this, but the mother is worried about her son traveling thousands of miles away. Rather than her venturing into that unknown and dangerous world alone, I naturally hope she can always be by my side and live a happy and smooth life."

The more Xu Shuhua talked, the more excited he became and burst into tears: "The world is rugged, and there are countless difficulties and obstacles. Not to mention that Xi'er is a girl. She has many more inconveniences when walking outside than men, and she may encounter more dangers. It’s a lot more than men.”

"Rao is the third cousin, a strong man with rich travel experience and strong body. He has encountered several robbers and gangsters in the past few years and barely managed to save his life. Xi'er is a weak woman. Even if she has martial arts at her side, will she be destined to die? Can you beat the murderous gangster?"

"You and I are just one child. If something happens to Xi'er, what should we do? Xi'er is the meat that fell off my body, the sweetheart that I raised in my hands. If something happens to her, then I will really I can’t live anymore…”

When Xu Shuhua thought of this, he felt so scared that he rested his hand on the table limply and cried uncontrollably.

The more Gu Yunji listened, the more uncomfortable he felt. He put his arm around his wife's shoulders and wiped her tears: "I understand, I understand... Xi'er is your daughter and mine, how can I not love her? Don't say that You and I are just one child, even if we raise ten or eight children, if Xi'er wants to practice martial arts, you still can't rest assured."

"But Shuhua, Xi'er has already had such an idea, will she give up easily? She is only six years old. In order to make you agree to practice martial arts, at an age when other children of the same age can only cry and make trouble, she can Although it is wrong to kneel for such a long time, doesn't it also show that she is determined?"

"Our daughter has been different from others since she was a child. She can dance, make noises, and is particularly smart. Some people say she has a wild temper, but I think she is born with a smart mind and is not the same as ordinary people. Xi'er is like you, and she is also like As long as I am determined to do something, I must do it, and I can't give up just because of others' obstruction."

Seeing that his wife was silent, Gu Yunji didn't know if she heard it, so he simply turned his head and looked into her eyes:

"Just like when you were a child, your teacher was open-minded and did not stop you from learning Western writing and the Four Books and Five Classics. If he was a rigid person and wouldn't let you touch anything except female virtues and female precepts, would you be obedient or rebellious? , the more he doesn’t ask you to do anything, the more you want to do it?”

Xu Shuhua looks weak, but at heart he is a person who is unwilling to be restrained. He even has a hint of rebellion. There is no doubt that he is the latter.Gu Yunji continued: "Others think that a woman's lack of talent is a virtue, and you sneer at it. If this is the case, what if the happy and smooth road we envision is not what Xi'er wants? What you and I think is good, But Xi’er thinks it’s not good, so does it have to be good?”

"Is it necessary to raise Xi'er up to be a dignified and beautiful lady? After many years, I will become a highly respected official, and then I will find a young man with excellent appearance and literary talent to accept as my disciple, select him as a potential son-in-law, and bring him and Xi'er together. Can we live a happy and happy life only if our children become husband and wife?"

At first glance, these words were obviously talking about Xu Shuhua and Gu Yunji themselves. Thinking about it more carefully, they actually teased Xu Chengyu as well.Xu Shuhua felt more and more uncomfortable as he listened and stared at him: "Isn't this good?"

Gu Yunji laughed: "I didn't say this was bad. This is your life and mine. What's wrong? But it's obvious that such a happy life is not what our daughter wants."

"What she wants is to get out of the house, break away from the shackles that the world puts on women, go see the great rivers and mountains, and appreciate the magnificent scenery."

Xu Shuhua leaned into his arms, his eyebrows filled with sadness: "It sounds great, but I'm worried..."

"What are you worried about?" Gu Yunji answered her, "Xi'er is only six years old now. It will take at least ten years for her to grow up to the day when she can really go out. To be honest, ten years is a long time, what will happen There are many unpredictable changes, and it’s hard to say what Xi’er will become.”

"Maybe she just had a whim to practice martial arts, but after trying it, she found that it was just like that, and she soon lost interest; or she may be a very home-loving child, and even though she has the ability to go out and explore, she is reluctant to leave you and me; or maybe, When she reaches the age where love begins, she will fall in love with some handsome son and clamor to marry him..."

"Oh, not necessarily." Gu Yunji thought about that situation and changed his words with a smile, "After all, with our daughter's temperament, if she really fell in love with another son, I'm afraid she wouldn't marry him, but 'coercion and inducement' He will be our son-in-law."

Hearing Gu Yunji's words become more and more outrageous, Xu Shuhua gave him a light slap: "It's not as serious as you said. Xi'er is naughty and very well-behaved."

Although he said this, after Gu Yunji interrupted, Xu Shuhua imagined what his daughter would look like when she grew up. He couldn't help but feel curious and relieved, and the depression in his heart dissipated a lot.

Gu Yunji smiled and said: "Of course I know Xi'er is well-behaved, and our child is naturally good in all aspects. After all, as parents, we don't ask for anything in return from our children. We only hope that she will be happy and have a safe and smooth life. In this case, I am satisfied. What about her wishes?”

After being persuaded by Gu Yunji, Xu Shuhua was initially very resistant to his daughter's martial arts practice, but now he has less than three points of resistance.After much hesitation, she finally agreed: "Okay, then let Xi'er practice martial arts."

As she said that, she said uneasily: "However, you have to carefully look for martial arts masters to teach. Don't look for those who are not popular. If they don't show their true ability, they will teach us Xi'er bad things."

Gu Yunji smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will look for it carefully. By the way, when I am free in the future, I will pull Su Qi over and let him guide Xi'er. Ding Guogong will personally check it, so there will be no problem."
