"She's a maverick, you know? Who knows what kind of husband Xiaoyu will end up with if she goes with her?"

Zhu Yanniang rolled her eyes. What's wrong with her career? Punishing evil and upholding justice, she's probably the best woman in the world. These people really don't understand her goodness.

"Even if Cen Xi's reputation is bad, she's still a hundred times better than you. Judging from the way Shen Xiang is, he'll definitely treat her like a treasure and keep her in his mansion. If Xiao Yu follows her, at least she'll be a rich young lady in the future, and her chances of marrying a wealthy man will definitely be much higher. What's the big deal about you? Putting aside the rules of your Su Nu Sect, just considering your status as a brothel madam, do you think you can find her a good family in the future?"

Jun Xiaoqiao rolled her eyes at Zhu Yanniang and then gave a sharp comment on the matter.

"What's so great about getting married? Men are all the same. Isn't it better to enjoy life while you can? I'm a perfect example. I was bullied by my mother-in-law and husband and almost died in a mass grave. I'm not as happy and carefree as I am now."

Zhu Yanniang strongly disagreed with the idea that Xiaoyu would get married in the future. She saw through this man very clearly.

"With Shen Jinchen and Shen Xiang around, who would dare to bully Xiaoyu? I admit you're right, most men in the world are prone to infidelity, but there are also a few exceptionally good men."

"Take Cen Xi and her two men for example. Shen Jinchen is of noble birth, handsome and refined, and extremely devoted in love. Although he can be a bit domineering, a bit of a rogue, and a bit of a chauvinist at times, you can't say he's not a good man, right?"

"As for Jun Jianchou, he is as handsome as Pan An, of noble status, and devoted to love. You've seen it yourself, haven't you? Although he may be a bit sharp-tongued at times, I guarantee that if someone marries him, he will treat that girl with sincerity. However, we probably won't see that happen. He is too deeply in love. I think he can only marry another woman if he is reincarnated."

What do you think?

Jun Xiaoqiao used real-life examples to illustrate his point to Zhu Yanniang. He felt he still had a chance to persuade her. Judging from the current situation, she might follow Cen Xi in the future. Xiaoyu's values ​​needed to be carefully shaped, and she absolutely could not be like her.

"Ah, the two people you mentioned are deeply in love with Cen Xi. It's all because of Cen Xi's charm that they've become good people! What does that have to do with the vast majority of bad men in the world? I think Xiaoyu can inherit my mantle in the future. What's wrong with controlling men? Wouldn't it be better to make them fall at her feet like dogs?"

Zhu Yanniang didn't take it to heart. He felt that the two men were not a good reference point. He believed that Xiaoyu would grow up to be a woman who could stand out from the crowd. It would be a waste of such a promising talent to confine her to the inner quarters.

"Ah, sorry, I really can't continue. It's like chewing wax, or talking to a brick wall. We don't see eye to eye, so I'll take my leave."

Jun Xiaoqiao was so shocked by her theory that she wanted to shatter her own worldview. She had to escape the scene quickly and cleanse her ears. This world was quite bizarre, with extremely open customs. There were cases of divorce and remarriage, as well as Zhu Yanniang. It seemed that this world, which disregarded worldly conventions, was a relatively friendly era for women.

"Did I say something wrong? No, I didn't. If men can do it, why can't women? Sigh, women just don't understand."

Zhu Yanniang scratched her own fingers, and I watched innocently as Jun Xiaoqiao walked away quickly.

...

After finishing breakfast, Xiaoyu sat alone in Cenxi's courtyard, lost in thought. Occasionally, she would go in to check on Cenxi. The adults all said that her mother would be alright.

However, her mother still hasn't woken up, and she's getting more and more scared. She's terrified of losing her mother again, because then there will be no one in the world who will treat her well. What should she do? Little Fish is panicking.

"How is she?"

Just as Xiaoyu was becoming increasingly frightened by what he saw, Liu Jiuyi appeared in front of him without him noticing.

"Oh, brother, what brings you here?"

The little fish's adorable eyes held a hint of confusion. She had grown another year older and now naturally knew that her brother didn't like their mother.

"I...I came to take a look."

Liu Jiuyi sat down next to the stone bench, hesitated for a moment, and then stammered out her words, her eyes revealing undisguised concern.

"Oh, then go in and check on her. Mother hasn't woken up yet. Uncles and aunts all say that Mother will be alright. Is Brother worried about Mother?"

The little fish blinked at Liu Jiuyi, its adorable eyes filled with joy.

"Yes, she took care of me after all, so I came to check on her."

Six-year-old Liu Jiuyi, though still young, has lost his parents at a young age, so he is more mature than his peers. He is actually grateful, but sometimes he is awkward, changeable, and sometimes his words hurt people.

"Then I'll go in with you, brother. Mother is a good person. Let's protect her from now on, okay? Let's not argue with her anymore, okay?"

Xiaoyu stood up happily, walked straight to Liu Jiuyi's side, and hugged his arm with a smile, shaking it and acting coquettishly.

"Okay! Let's go in and take a look!"

Liu Jiuyi stood up, and after mentally preparing herself, slowly stepped into the doorway.

Master was still in the house discussing countermeasures with the man who had taken Mother away. He couldn't help much, so he could only come over and take a look.

As soon as they entered the room, the woman in green greeted them:

"Young Miss and Young Master are here. Did you miss your mother?"

"Yes, my brother and I want to see how Mother is doing."

Xiaoyu smiled and said to Qingyi, and even gesticulated wildly, grabbing Qingyi's arm.

Qingyi had always liked her, so he stroked her soft hair and smiled:

"Is this your brother?"

"Yes, it's my brother. He went traveling with my master a while ago. He's not very talkative, but he still cares about Mother, so he came to visit."

Little Fish looked at Qingyi with her bright, sparkling eyes and explained in a cute way.

"Oh, I see. Well then, I'll go outside and get some water."

Qingyi smiled, patted her head, glanced at Liu Jiuyi, and then turned and left.

She chuckled silently a few times after leaving the house. At the Jun residence, she had seen this young master talk about how his master had broken ties with him. Now it seemed he was just saying one thing and meaning another. This little rascal still cared about his master, didn't he?

"Why is her face so flushed? And she has a fever."

Liu Jiuyi touched Cen Xi's face and was startled.

“I don’t know either. That uncle said that Mother seems to be under some kind of curse, and if she isn’t rescued in time, she might die. Brother, do you think they can do something? I don’t want Mother to die.”

Xiaoyu looked at Liu Jiuyi with a worried expression and expressed her fear.

"Probably not. Master and that person will have a solution. Let's go out first. The adults will handle these matters."

Liu Jiuyi glanced at the person on the bed again, then pulled Xiaoyu out.
