Chapter 1350: Does The Mo Family Care About That Pittance Of Yours? (3)
“What’s your basis for saying that? Yang Xuhua, if not for the Yang family, where would you be today? How dare you speak to me like that. The reason I work so hard is to help the Yang family progress. When I marry into the Mo family, the entire Yang family will depend on me.”
Yang Xuhua looked at his crazed younger sister and laughed coldly. “We’ll talk about it when you manage to marry into the Mo family. Don’t forget, without the Yang family, you can’t even get past the door of the Mo house!
“No, in fact, I should say that without the Yang family, you can’t even get within a ten-mile radius of the Mo house. This little enclave cannot be entered by just anyone. Do you really look down on outsiders? Without the Yang family, you would be just like them!”
Yang Shiyun: “…”
Madam Yang was terrified by their expressions. “Son, you… how can you speak to your sister like that? Both of you are the pride of the Yang family. You should help each other! When your sister marries into the Mo family, no one can compare to you. Then…”
“Since you want her to marry into the Mo family, then you should make her recognize her own value. I’ve already said that girls from noble families cannot be too domineering. Why is she acting like that? She acts as if none of the young ladies in the entire capital can compare to her, but in reality?
“Mother, think about it carefully. In the past, Gu Qingyao was a very good girl, and all her older cousins doted on her. Over the years, have you heard of her being famous for anything or having any talent besides being Jiang Yiru’s disciple and reputedly having excellent medical skills? And then there’s the Gu family’s Young Madam, Ji Mingyue. Was her reputation very good then? She had even been cast off by the Bai family!
“At that time, Ji Mingyue wasn’t domineering either. She was obedient, quiet and the demure young lady of a noble family. In the end, didn’t Young Master Gu take a fancy to her? Which man would fancy a woman like her? Men who are heads of their families like gentle, pretty, virtuous and gracious women. Does she know how to act like that?
“Perhaps you can’t tell, but those girls are never frightened of formal occasions. They are real women who are equal to any social occasion, but who can also run the household. But her? Can she do that?”
Yang Xuhua grew angry at the mention of this.
Of course he was glad that his younger sister was outstanding, but it was not necessarily a good thing to be overly concerned about one’s reputation.
“Besides continually boasting about her overseas education and that she can earn her own keep with her medical skills, what else can she do? Does the Mo family care about that pittance of hers?”
Madam Yang: “…”
Yang Shiyun: “…”‘
Yang Xuhua was a man. He felt that a woman did not need to be too strong or capable. All the children in the Gu family had been well brought up. The men were like men, and the women were like women. But many outsiders did not know that even the women had their own careers and achievements. Be it the eldest son’s wife, or the granddaughters, Gu Fangting and Gu Qingyao. All of them are doing very well in business.”
But these people kept a relatively low profile and never boasted to others. They peacefully led their own little lives and quietly grew very rich.
The Yang family was different. They were not very well-established and had made their way up the rungs of the ladder. They had suddenly earned some money because times were good, so they thought very highly of themselves.
In the past, Yang Shiyun did not know that women could be as capable as her, earn so much money and be independent.
So after studying for a few years overseas, she looked down on the women in China upon her return. She felt that the women here were all the same. They could not survive without their men.
