Chapter 23 Education
Li Rui glanced at Gu Lei with a meaningful look, but Gu Lei pretended not to notice.
Li Yu happily put away her treasure, "As long as I have money, I can create more interesting things."
With this, you can negotiate with the clan and occupy a position.
Mr. Li looked at his granddaughter with pride and joy in his eyes. Grandpa Gu also nodded with a smile. This girl is really the lucky star of the Li family. The Li family has raised a good daughter.
"Show me, don't be in a hurry to accept it."
Gu Lei was very interested and wanted to see it again.
Li Yu held the box with a wary look on her face, "If I don't give it to you, don't try to steal my treasure."
Gu Lei's eyebrows stood up in anger, and he glared at her with his peach blossom eyes, "I'll take a look at who cares about stealing your stuff."
"You are a layman and can't understand, so I won't show it to you."
Li Yu pouted at him and rolled his eyes.
"Hey! Grandpa Li, look at her... she still looks down on people."
Old Man Li laughed heartily, "That's her treasure, so guard it very tightly."
"You said you, a girl likes carpentry, it's really strange."
Gu Lei couldn't grab it and deliberately choked her.
"Everyone has different hobbies. I like the ingenuity of these mechanisms. What's wrong with it? I'm happy to do it. You care about me. My father didn't say I was bad. The skills I learned are all practical."
Li Yu replied unconvinced.
I don't care what you think, I know what I want.
"Yu'er is what everyone's daughter should be like. She is a treasure. She has many skills such as brewing, machinery, and waterwheels."
The more Grandpa Gu watched it, the more he liked it. Our daughter should be like this, generous and refreshing.
"The wine she makes is very delicious. It is the best wine I have ever tasted."
Gu Lei looked at Li Yu's gentle smile.
"You were dissatisfied with me just now. I didn't let you drink my wine or show you my baby."
Li Yu pushed him away and jumped out of the car and got into her mother's car.
"I'm just kidding, don't be angry."
Gu Lei also got off the horse and went over to coax her.
Li Yu turned his head and ignored him.
"Who told you not to show me your baby? If you show it to me, I will praise you."
Gu Lei deliberately made her angry and liked to see her face turn red with anger, like a delicate rose with thorns.
"Who cares if you praise me? Shut up or I'll beat you up."
Li Yu clenched his fists angrily, really wanting to hit him.
"Hehehe! Cheapskate."
Gu Lei was not angry and kept laughing.
Lin Yue saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart. How could she talk to a man like this? Women should abide by the three obedience and four virtues.
"Yu'er, don't argue with your cousin. It won't look good to outsiders."
"I don't care what outsiders do, and what outsiders think has nothing to do with me."
Li Yu was quite surprised by her remarks.
Lin Yue's face instantly turned red, she bit her lip but still spoke unconvinced, "A woman should abide by the three obediences and four virtues, and be more modest when speaking to men. Do not argue to avoid violating verbal ethics. It is better not to tarnish the lintel of the family and affect the family's reputation."
Li Yu's eyes widened with a look of disapproval, "A few gossips will affect the family's reputation and tarnish the lintel. So what do you think I should do?"
There was a teasing smile in her voice at the end.
"You should apologize to your cousin. My cousin is a man who started the family. You shouldn't steal my cousin's limelight repeatedly. This is really not good."
Lin Yue shook her head with a look of disapproval. This was seriously inconsistent with her family education.
"Hahahaha! You are so funny, you made me laugh to death."
Li Yu had already laughed so hard that she fell in her arms, as if she had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world.
"What did I say wrong? It's against etiquette for a girl like you to strive for the first place."
Lin Yue refuted loudly.
"So this is how your civil servants teach their daughters. It's so interesting."
Li Yu smiled and shook his head.
"This is etiquette."
Lin Yue deliberately enunciated her words.
"Lin Yue, I don't care what outsiders think of me. My parents and grandfather are still alive and have not said anything bad about me. My grandparents and parents taught me that daughters should be as tough and brave as men, and be a good example to the world and the family.
An upright and useful person."
Li Yu straightened his face and looked at Lin Yue with a firm and calm attitude.
"What you said is bullshit to me. I don't think I'm any worse than a man. I will naturally reject what he said is wrong."
"I, Li Yu, have never been a weak woman who relied on men to survive. I can still live without a man, and I can still live well."
At the end, she added, "I feel extremely honored and lucky to be born into the Li family and become the daughter of the Li family. My parents have never restricted my freedom."
"Allow me to study and practice martial arts with my brothers, take me to see the outside world, and let me know that there is a world outside the sky, the outside world is vast and beautiful, and life is not limited to the three acres of land in the house. This is the upbringing of my Li family."
Daughters are not inferior to boys and can be excellent as well.
Lin Yue was speechless by the rebuke, and when she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say in order to make sense.
But the upbringing she received since she was a child is completely opposite. A woman should study and practice calligraphy in her boudoir in a well-behaved manner. In the future, she should marry a good family and add children to her husband's family, carry on the family line and take care of her inner house.
Aunt Gu and Mrs. Wang both had proud looks of recognition in their eyes.
Only Gu Lin was confused. It turned out that this was the reason why he didn't love me, and this was the reason why my mother-in-law always looked down on me.
"Cousin, Yu'er is different from you. She is better than men. My childhood sweetheart Yu'er and I have been playing around like this since we were young, so don't mind."
The implication is that you and Yu'er are incomparable. They are not people who can be compared together. You don't have to meddle in my business.
Lin Yue's face turned red when her cousin said this, and she almost said that she was being sentimental and meddling in her own business.
Li Yu turned his head and ignored her. It turned out that Lin Yue's tutor was like this, completely opposite to him. This was too frustrating.
None of the elders spoke or intervened in the children's disputes.
Li Yu was a little hungry, so she took out some uneaten snacks from the cabinet, "Mom, aunt, do you want to eat?"
"You go ahead and eat it, I've already eaten it."
Wang shook his head.
Aunt Gu also waved her hand to indicate that she would not eat snacks.
"Leizi, would you like some snacks?"
"eat."
Gu Lei lowered his head and Li Yu fed him a piece of snack from the car window.
"When we go to the city, I will buy you some more delicious food and put them in the carriage. You can always have a bite to fill your stomach when you are hungry."
Gu Lei remembered this while eating snacks, and Yu'er became hungry quickly while practicing martial arts.
"Do you know what flavor I want to eat? Don't buy the wrong one."
Li Yu asked casually.
"I know, can I still know your taste? If I make a mistake, I can't make a mistake on yours and buy you something else."
Gu Lei was thinking about the kinds of snacks she liked to eat, and he didn't know if they were available in the city. If they were not available in the town, this girl was very naughty.
"Do you have enough money?"
"That's enough. I won't ask you for more if I don't have enough."
Gu Lei also did not meet Li Yu.
"When we enter the city, we first inquire about the Du family. Someone in the escort office was injured when we arrived. They will definitely stay for a few days. We may encounter them. You can tell me after you inquire. Don't act in a hurry."
Li Yu took the attitude of taking it for granted that I am in charge of everything and you are in charge.
"I understand, I listen to you."
Gu Lei happily ran errands for her.
Lin Yue bit her lip in grievance, her hands trembling with anger.
A big man is being bossed around by women. This is never allowed in my family. Women must walk behind men when they walk, and must not go in front of men. This makes the man lose face.
She is always fighting for the first place. What's the point?
