Chapter 153: Meeting the Parents (3)

Li Junxian heard his father say that he wanted to see the daughter-in-law who was a general, and Li Junxian immediately scolded the subordinates who were responsible for receiving his parents countless times.

The daughter-in-law who became a general that his father said must be Mulan. And Li Junxian and Mulan, strictly speaking, do not have a husband and wife relationship, but Li Junxian said so in order to help Mulan avoid Li Shimin. However, after that, there was a scandal. But a scandal is a scandal, and Li Junxian and Mulan did not admit it to each other. As long as they wait for this limelight to pass, they can do whatever they like.

But these dogs actually told their parents about this scandal, and the parents naturally wanted to meet the daughter-in-law who was a general. But Li Junxian didn't think that Mulan would agree to see his parents at all. Because a scandal is a scandal, but once you meet your parents, it is different in the eyes of the ancients. In ancient times, a daughter-in-law or son-in-law met her parents, indicating that her parents had initially approved of them. And if Mulan doesn't marry Li Junxian in the future, then she may have a bad reputation if she wants to marry someone else. Li Junxian will not force Mulan to come to see his parents, because he will not let Mulan have a bad reputation in the future for a little vanity!

However, what Li Junxian didn't expect was that when he hesitated to invite Mulan over, the door of the box had already been opened.

"Mulan? Wan'er? Li Junxian said in surprise.

"Junxian, I'm here!" Mulan said.

Li Junxian thought in surprise: "Junxian? Why is it so affectionate? ”

Mulan then walked heroically to Li Junxian's parents, picked up the wine glass and said; "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, I respect you!"

Li Junxian almost fainted, what is this! Mulan actually took the initiative to say hello to her parents, and she still called herself in the name of her daughter-in-law.

"Hehe, I see that you are the general's daughter-in-law, I was captured as a soldier, and I know the general's bearing very well!" My father seemed very satisfied.

But the mother whispered, "Isn't it too crazy?" Also, he is a little older than Xian'er. ”

Mulan heard her mother's words and was a little overwhelmed. Mulan thought that her mother did not approve of her as a "daughter-in-law", so she was a little overwhelmed. However, Mulan's surname may be difficult to change, because she has been in the army for many years, and her surname and temperament are closer to that of the military, and it is impossible to return to the situation of her daughter's family.

Moreover, in ancient times, women were older than men, which was a very big fatal injury. And Mulan is already twenty-two years old, six years older than Li Junxian. If in later generations, getting married at the age of twenty-two is still called early marriage, but in ancient times, it was a leftover girl at the level of "Monkey King". So it's normal for my mother to worry about getting older. Even in the 21st century, women are six years older than men, which is a non-uncomfortable problem.

"It's okay, it's just right. My daughter-in-law is a general, so of course I'm happy. "My father disagrees with my mother.

When my mother saw my father say this, it was hard to say anything.

Mulan picked up the chopsticks, took the initiative to pick up a piece of meat, put it in her mother's bowl, and said, "Mother-in-law, you have been displaced all year round, so please eat more!" This is mutton, which is the most replenishing for the body. ”

And Dugu Yiren couldn't help but feel a little unhappy when she saw this situation, she rejected this Mulan a little, because Mulan's status was too high, and she could completely threaten her status. But now that this Mulan is so courteous in front of her parents-in-law, this makes Dugu Yi feel a real threat.

"Father-in-law, this is chicken soup, and it is also very nourishing, I'll give you a bowl!" Dugu Yiren also began to please his father.

Li Junxian saw Dugu Yiren and Mulan pleasing his parents so much, and he probably knew what he was thinking. Dugu Yiren is probably jealous and eager to gain the approval of his parents. But what is Mulan doing this for? Li Junxian was a little incomprehensible to Mulan's behavior, so he was a little surprised.

And the father and mother looked very satisfied, the dishes in the bowl have never been broken, and they can't eat it. And Li Junxian didn't take the initiative to disturb them, because whether it is ancient or modern, a daughter-in-law should serve her parents-in-law. And now Li Junxian's biggest headache is how to face Mulan.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, my parents seem to be full.

"Father, mother, we should go back too, right?" Li Junxian said.

"Okay, okay, we should go back too." My father seemed very satisfied.

At this time, Li Junxian sent his parents out, and after his parents got in the car, his mother actually said: "That Mulan is good at everything, but if you become a general, will it be too high?" Also, a few years older. ”

Li Junxian knew that his mother was still worried about this, afraid that he would not be able to control it. In ancient times, parents were very conflicted about their son marrying a woman with a higher status, because they thought that their son could rely on his wife to take fewer detours and achieve a greater career. But I was also worried that my son would not be able to surrender to my daughter-in-law.

"Mother, don't worry, my official position is higher than Mulan's, and my knighthood is higher than Mulan's, don't worry." Li Junxian said.

"I'm not worried about this, I'm worried that he's a soldier. To be able to be a general, there are a few who are not strong, I am afraid that none of you will obey anyone at that time. If so, I'm afraid you won't be doing well. Mother said.

Li Junxian finally knew what his mother meant, and that was because in ancient times, life after marriage was different from Li Junxian, a later generation. In ancient times, married life was about suppression, either the man completely suppressed the woman, and if it didn't work, then retreat and let the woman decide. In this way, one side is absolutely strong and the other side is absolutely weak, so there will be no contradictions. If both parties are strong and can't completely suppress each other, then I'm afraid that married life will be unfavorable.

However, Li Junxian's marriage idea of later generations is to respect each other before and after marriage, and respect each other's personality and ideals, which is a common trend of thought in later generations, which is completely different from ancient times. And my mother thinks that since Li Junxian and Mulan can both be generals, it means that both of them have strong surnames, and I am afraid that there will be contradictions.

However, suppressing each other is only the idea of the top of society, and the bottom still respects each other.

"Mother, it doesn't matter, we can respect each other as guests, and there will be no contradictions." Li Junxian said.

"I hope so!" Mother said.

Li Junxian couldn't help but sigh again, pity the hearts of parents all over the world, and even take into account the relationship between her son and daughter-in-law, this mother really has nothing to say to her son!
