rich concubine

Chapter 2098 Unrestricted

At dinner the next day, Yun'er saw her mother's eyes full of joy and her father looking more attentive than before. She couldn't help but think: What they said to their mother in private yesterday, she wouldn't have told her father in the blink of an eye, right?
Thinking about it like this, I couldn't help but feel guilty. After all, yesterday I completely sold my biological father without any hesitation.

But after the whole meal, Dad didn't say anything else. As usual, he told them to study hard. Then, he said abruptly: "I guess I will send you to Zongxue at the beginning of the new year."

Except for Ling'er, the two elders at the table and Rong Yi were all stunned for a moment.

Jiang Shunxiao smiled and said to Rong Yi first: "I was busy with things last night, so I didn't have time to talk to you."

Things are busy?If it weren't for the presence of the child, Rong Yi would definitely roll her eyes at him and let him act so careless here!

Ignoring her annoyance, Jiang Shunxiao said seriously to the two children: "Your Majesty intends to let Mr. Yu enter the palace. I'm afraid he will have to concentrate on assisting the prince and grandson in the future. You are also old enough to go to Zongxue. Which path will you take in the future?" , Dad supports it.”

Whether he pursues an official career or pursues martial arts, he supports it, and his words are meant to be heard.

Chengcheng said: "My son hasn't thought about it yet..."

"Then wait until you think about it. You are still young and should focus on etiquette. In the future, you will have the confidence to go wherever you go."

Chengcheng nodded and became a little silent. He picked up the rice in his bowl. He knew in his heart that his father wanted him to follow the path of the Jiang family, and as the eldest son, he should indeed inherit the inheritance. But now, his father seemed to have no idea about this matter. , not so insistent anymore.

Rong Yi also looked at him, but since the child was present, she didn't ask any questions.

After both children entered school, she couldn't help but asked.

I thought it would be some serious reason, but I heard him say: "The Jiang family is taking the road of martial arts. No one can tell whether the next step will be life or death. In the past, when my children were young, I didn't I think there is something wrong with letting them take this path, but now that they are older and looking at Chengcheng, I don’t want him to have any regrets. He is a child who loves to read. Although I have high hopes for him, I don’t want to suppress him because of such high expectations. It took away from his nature and made him make decisions that were contrary to his original intentions.”

"Then the prince...does he think so too?"

Jiang Shunxiao was silent, looked into Rong Yi's eyes, smiled lightly, and said: "Although my idea is very selfish, I can't care about so much right now. I just want our children to be able to live this life peacefully." In my life, the Jiang family will not only have one son, but I will also have only one grandchild in the future. He is your and me’s first child. I will always love him in my heart. The first son of a wealthy family, what a blessing. I hope that he will be subject to such strict discipline, but for our son, I don’t want him to live so hard. If he is a capable person, I don’t need to say that he will slowly know what path he should take. road."

If he is not the one who takes the lead, even if he is put in shackles now and pressed on his head to force him to obey, it will only hurt the relationship between father and son, and it may not lead to a happy ending in the future.

Rong Yi's words last night reminded him that although the two of them later spent time on that heavy topic in other ways, as a father and husband, he had to think about it.The ancient ethics can discipline the eldest son of a family well, so that he can be an excellent heir and pass on the glory and glory of the family. However, a child raised in this way will lose his luster in this life, and he will be imprisoned with this surname for life. Under this situation, you will never know whether he is willing or not, because the upbringing and rigid obsession in his bones will suppress the will he should have, and what he will build up again is nothing but what the family gave him.

How cruel to deprive a person of the right to choose life. Who has not been like this throughout the ages?
From the moment Jiang Yimin was crowned king and the Jiang family climbed to new heights, why wasn't Jiang Shunxiao a person who had been deprived of his will?
People living in the current era have a kind of extreme numbness, so numb that they don't even notice that their lives have been deprived of them. Following the rules, following ancient laws, and accepting the lessons of their ancestors, this kind of life seems to be the right way.

If he had only married someone who was suitable for the position of mistress of the Jiang family, then he might not be able to escape from that vicious cycle of thought, but he married the person he loved, and his children are all in the palm of his hand. He doted on his grown-up parents and children instead of inheriting the family. Looking at the young faces of the children, how could he bear to imprison them and let them live numbly from now on?
Instead of teaching them strictly, what is the glory of a family and what is prosperity for generations?It would be better to let him slowly understand what he should do from an early age. If he is willing to take this path in the future, although he will be worried, he will feel more at ease.

Rong Yi remained silent, not bothering with the consequences of such a decision, and asked him: "If I had given you a choice, what would you have done?"

Jiang Shunxiao was stunned for a moment, looked at his hands, and chuckled, as if with a sense of innocence, he said: "If I had never led troops to fight, I might still know what I want, but now you ask me like this, I can't figure out what I want to do, what can I do? It's like I was born to guard."

Just like his name, this is his father's hope for him.

Seeing him like this, Rong Yi felt a little depressed, but after thinking about it, she smiled and said: "But, what I wanted at the beginning, I got now, although it is a little different from what I actually thought. , but I have to say that what I get now is ten times and a hundred times what I could have imagined at the beginning."

At the beginning, I just wanted to marry an honest man and have children. Even if Jingchai is in a sarong, as long as the husband and wife are harmonious and the children grow up, it will be great. All of this has been realized now, but I am not marrying an honest man. A man is a general who is thoughtful, courageous and capable.

Nowadays, silk and satin are added to the body, gold and silver treasures are within reach, and there has been a leaping change in both identity and thought.

After she was well-dressed and well-fed, her thoughts also became: Why can't women be like men, able to walk independently and not be like canaries attached to others?

People will always be greedy for what they can't get. This is not wrong. The wrong thing is that if you are greedy but don't know how to restrain yourself, you will lose what you want and achieve nothing.

After Rong Yi got everything back then, she would feel this kind of panic, as if these things were something she shouldn't have taken, but now they were all handed over to her, making herself a rare person in the world. of lucky people.

People's blessings are limited. She is afraid that she will spend all her blessings in such a short period of time. How will she live the remaining decades of her life?

Therefore, even if she is very satisfied with the current situation, she never dares to stop, for fear that once she stops, the whip of fate will severely remind her how hard-won all this is.
