Xu Shuhua was doing other things in his hands, he didn't look up at him, and his tone was calm: "You were persuaded by Xi'er, and you want to persuade me to allow her to practice martial arts, right?" ”

Gu Yunji choked, a little speechless.

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

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 this hardship, and it's not that I think girls should be quiet and dignified, and they can't fight and kill like men." ”

"I just think that practicing martial arts is just the beginning for Yu Xi'er, and once she takes this step, it will not be something we can predict in the future."

Xu Shuhua raised his head and looked at him: "Yunji, you should know very well what our daughter is, do you think that if she learns martial arts and has a certain ability to protect herself, she will stay by our side obediently in the future and be a so-called obedient child?" ”

"Wouldn't she want to get out of the house and see the wider world? Wouldn't she want to be like her third cousin, seeing all over the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas? Of course, there is nothing wrong with this, but my mother is worried that I naturally hope that she can always be by my side and live a peaceful and smooth life than if she went to the unknown and dangerous world alone. ”

The more Xu Shuhua spoke, the more emotional he became, and he burst into tears: "The world is rugged, I don't know how many difficulties and obstacles, not to mention that Xi'er is a girl, there are many more inconveniences when walking outside than men, and there are many more dangers that may be encountered than men." ”

"Rao is the third cousin, a middle-aged man with rich travel experience and strong body, who has encountered robbers and bandits several times over the years, and barely picked up a life. Xi'er is a weak woman, even if she has martial arts, will she definitely be able to beat the murderous bandits? ”

"You and I are such a child, if Xi'er has something to do with three longs and two shorts, what should we do? Xi'er is the meat that fell from my body, and I raised it in the palm of my hand, if she has an accident, then I really can't live......"

As soon as he thought of this, Xu Shuhua was terrified in his heart, and he propped up one hand on the table weakly, crying uncontrollably.

The more Gu Yunji listened, the more uncomfortable she became, she reached out and grabbed her shoulders and wiped her tears: "I understand, I understand...... Xi'er is your daughter and my daughter, how can I not love her? Don't say that you and I are such a child, that is, we have raised ten or eight children, Xi'er wants to practice martial arts, and you still can't rest assured. ”

"But Shuhua, Xi'er already has 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 will only cry and make trouble, she can kneel for so long, although this way is not right, but it also shows that she is resolute? ”

"Our daughter has been different from others since she was a child, she can dance and make trouble, and she is especially smart, some people say that she is wild, but I think she is born with a beautiful spirit, and she is not the same as ordinary people. Xi'er is like you and me, as long as it is something that is certain, it must be done, but it is not something that can be given up with the obstruction of others. ”

Seeing that his wife didn't speak, Gu Yunji didn't know if she had listened or not, so he simply turned his head to look at her eyes:

"Just like when you were a child, the teacher was open-minded and did not hinder you from learning Western characters, the Four Books and the Five Classics. If he is an old-fashioned person, and he will not let you touch anything except for the female virtue and female commandments, will you be obedient and obedient, or will you be rebellious, and the more he does not tell you, the more you will be? ”

Xu Shuhua looks weak, but in his bones he is a person who is unwilling to be bound, and even has a bit of rebellion, there is no doubt that it is the latter.

Gu Yunji continued: "Others think that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, and you scoff at it, in this case, what if the road of peace and smoothness we envisioned is not what Xi'er wants?" What you and I think is good, but Xi'er thinks it's bad, then it must be good? ”

"Do you have to raise Xi'er to be a dignified and beautiful lady, and after many years, I will become a highly respected official, and then find a descendant with excellent appearance and literary talent to be accepted as a disciple, and be selected as a preparatory son-in-law, so that he and Xi'er can become husband and wife, can it be called a happy life?"

At first glance, it was obvious that he was talking about Xu Shuhua and Gu Yunji themselves, and after thinking about it carefully, he actually teased Xu Chengyu as well. The more Xu Shuhua listened, the more wrong he became, and he glared at him: "Isn't this bad?" ”

Gu Yunji smiled: "I didn't say that this is bad, this is your life, what's wrong?" But obviously, such a happy life is not what our daughter wants. ”

"What she wants is to get out of the house, break free from the shackles imposed on women by the world, and go to see the beautiful rivers and mountains and enjoy the magnificent scenery."

Xu Shuhua leaned on his arms, his eyebrows and eyes dyed with sorrow: "It sounds very good, but I'm worried about ......"

"Worried about what?" Gu Yunji picked up her words, "Xi'er is only six years old now, and it will take at least ten years for her to grow up to the day when she really has the ability to go out." To be honest, ten years is a long time, and there will be many unpredictable changes, and it is difficult to say what Xi'er will become. ”

"She may have been interested in martial arts on a whim, but after trying it, she found that it was like that, and she soon became uninterested; She may also be a very home-loving child, even if she has the ability to go out, but she is reluctant to leave you and me; Or perhaps, when she grows up to the age when she first falls in love, she will fall in love with a handsome son, and clamoring to marry him......"

"Oh, not necessarily." Gu Yunji thought about that kind of scene, and changed his words with a smile, "After all, with our daughter's temperament, if you really fall in love with another family's son, I'm afraid that it is not to marry him, but to 'coerce and entic' others to be our family's son-in-law." ”

Listening to Gu Yunji's words, the more unspeakable he became, Xu Shuhua slapped him lightly: "How can it be so serious as you say, Xi'er is naughty and naughty, and she is still very well-behaved." ”

Having said that, after Gu Yunji's interruption, Xu Shuhua imagined what his daughter would look like when she grew up, and couldn't help but feel curious and relieved, and the dullness in her heart dissipated a lot.

Gu Yunji said with a smile: "Of course I know that Xi'er is well-behaved, our children are naturally good in all aspects." After all, you and I are parents, and I don't ask the child to reciprocate anything, I just hope that she will be happy and have a safe and smooth life. In that case, what about fulfilling her wishes? ”

was persuaded by Gu Yunji like this, for his daughter's martial arts practice, it can be said that Xu Shuhua was very resistant at first, and now there are only less than three points left. After hesitating, she finally agreed: "Okay, then let Xi'er practice martial arts." ”

Saying that, she said uneasily: "However, the martial arts master who teaches you have to look for it carefully, don't look for those who don't enter the stream, don't talk about it if you don't have real skills, but you also teach us Xi'er." ”

Gu Yunji said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely look for it, and by the way, when I have time in the future, I will pull Su Qi over and let him guide Xi'er." Ding Guogong personally checks the check, there must be no problem. ”
