"It's too tired to be a householder," she said.
I looked at the tears in her eyes and knew she wasn't lying.
Although this girl is the eldest granddaughter of Gao family, she has been marginalized all the time. Gao Yinlong attaches great importance to Gao long and loves Gao Wen. He is also very concerned about Gao Quan, but only for Gao Ying, the granddaughter, who has always been lukewarm. Gao Ying is strong, independent and proud. She is a miss of Gao family, but her wish is not to take charge of Gao family. On the contrary, what she wants is to leave.
Her dream is to leave the family and live a free and dignified life.
But now it seems that this dream can hardly be realized.
Gao Ying took a few mouthfuls of porridge, calmed down and asked me, "if I quit, would grandpa be ok?"
I looked at her calmly, without speaking.
There were tears in her eyes, which were opposite to my four eyes, waiting for my answer sincerely.
What should I say?
Say it's ok? Let her out?
Can the high power bear the power of the dragon?
Say something, let her insist?
What about her dream? What should I do? "Young master, can you tell me?" She tried to hold back the tears in her eyes and asked me again, "if I quit, would grandpa be ok?" I smiled calmly, "are you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid," she said.
"Then why do you want to quit?" I asked, "to fulfill your brother? Or to fulfill yourself? "
"I don't want to be a householder," she said. "I'm for Grandpa."
"Then why do you want to quit?" I asked.
She dodged my eyes and let out a long breath.
I stood up, patted her on the shoulder and turned to go.
"I am a girl, and my brother should be the master," she said lightly.
"So that's what you thought from the beginning?" I looked at her. "You think your brother is the pillar of your life. He will stick to it until the end. But you and Gao Wen are just for your grandfather. When you can't stick to it, you can quit, right?"
She stood up and looked at me. "I didn't want to quit, but if someone has to, it's me and Gao Wen. I think I'll stick to it until the last moment, but I won't be the head of the family. As long as my brother sticks to it, I'll stick to it. When grandpa is OK, I'll quit and let my brother be the head of the family. "
I was deeply moved by the girl's kindness.
I went to her and asked seriously, "do you really think so?"
She nodded quietly.
I looked at her for a while, smiled, held out my hand, and gently wiped away the tears from her eyes. "If I could, I really want to complete you... But unfortunately, I can't do that."
She was stunned. "You..."
"promise me, don't let me." I looked at her. "Try to stick to it. You can't stand it. You can quit. This is the most important moment in your life. Don't leave any regrets for yourself. "
"But my brother is..."
"if your brother can't hold on, he is not qualified to be the head of the family." I said, "Whoever can hold on to the end is the head of the family. If you deliberately let him, you are not responsible for your grandfather and all the people in the family, including yourself."
She looked at me in a tangled way, and then stopped, "I... But..."
I smiled and patted her on the shoulder, "I'll go to see Gao Wen. When you're finished, go to the living room and wait for me."
She hesitated for a moment and nodded in silence, "OK."
