"If you have this idea, I will naturally support it."
Shen Ruoyan smiled and said that although Lu Changchuan was not good at studying literature, he was good at martial arts. For the Lu family, this was actually a good thing.
Lu Yan is weak, so he practices martial arts to strengthen his body, so that at least he can protect himself when encountering any problems in the future.
Shen Ruoyan never agreed with the idea that scholars were precious and therefore needed to be supported. If they were really that precious, why would one still read? Wouldn't it be easy to damage one's eyes?
A reader should have both ravines in his heart and fireworks in his eyes.
She hoped that the saying "a scholar is good for nothing" would never be applied to Lu Yan and Lu Changchuan. That was why she had hired a master to teach them martial arts.
Now that Lu Changchuan has such lofty ambitions, she naturally supports him.
"Really?" Lu Changchuan was a little surprised, his face full of uncontrollable joy. "Mother, you really don't object?"
Shen Ruoyan asked in return, "Why should I object?"
Now, it was Lu Changchuan who was speechless.
"Because... because everyone doesn't do this..."
Everyone at the Imperial College had their own goals in mind, but no one was willing to fight on the battlefield. In their hearts, they were born to be superior, so how could they do such a crude thing?
Even if they are from a family of military generals, they only want to be a general who can call the wind and rain.
They don’t even look down on anything else!
Shen Ruoyan shook her head. "If everyone doesn't do this, does that mean it's wrong? What do you think?"
She has lived for so many years, and has long had her own habits and opinions about things. However, Lu Changchuan is still a child, and Shen Ruoyan does not want to use her own experience to trap him.
Even if she is right.
Lu Changchuan obviously didn't expect Shen Ruoyan to have such an attitude.
He originally thought that even if his mother didn't object, she would definitely teach him what to do. However, he never expected that his mother would actually ask him!
This person, who has always been carefree, started to get a little nervous for some reason.
Although his mother's eyes looked so gentle, Lu Changchuan felt a sense of nervousness and helplessness.
He didn't see any perfunctoriness in Shen Ruoyan's eyes. Instead, it was all respect.
Don't ignore his feelings just because he is a child.
Lu Changchuan swallowed and wiped the sweat off his trousers. His palms were damp with the heat of the moment. This was the first time he had expressed his thoughts to an outsider. He didn't know if it was right or wrong, but at this moment, he just wanted to speak it out!
Because mother, she is willing to listen!
"I love practicing martial arts, and I love the feeling of mastering power. Every time I practice martial arts with my master, I feel very happy!" Lu Changchuan was still a little confused about this passion, but this did not affect his understanding of himself.
"The prince likes to read. When he reads, he feels very comfortable. I think it's the same when I practice martial arts."
Shen Ruoyan listened patiently without interrupting. The child's words might not be so comprehensive, but she already knew what Lu Changchuan wanted to express.
"But you like practicing martial arts. If you want to join the army, there's more to it than just martial arts."
If passion and dreams can be combined into one thing, it would be a great fortune. But in reality, many times, these two cannot be achieved at the same time.
Lu Changchuan was still young, and Shen Ruoyan didn't want to define him. Whether he was just impulsive or really wanted to join the army, at least now, his feelings were sincere and passionate.
Then, that's enough.
But Shen Ruoyan didn't expect that Lu Changchuan would say such words next.
"Mom, I want to join the army because I want to drive away the bad guys who bully us! That way, people won't have to stay at home anymore, and children like me can do what they want!"
It doesn't matter whether you study, practice martial arts, or do nothing.
As long as they can live safely in this world, that's enough!
Lu Changchuan knew that the Marquis had gone out to fight because there were bad guys who wanted to seize their land and bully their people, so many adults left their homes and families to fight with them!
"I will work hard on my martial arts and endure a lot of hardships, so that I won't have to make others suffer in the future!"
Shen Ruoyan was shocked.
Lu Changchuan is just a child, but he has such a broad mind - she feels inferior to him.
"Changchuan, your mother is proud of you for thinking this way!" Shen Ruoyan looked at him with relief. No matter what happened in the future, at least at this moment, this child made her feel ashamed and moved in her heart.
She had seen too much intrigue and was unable to deal with such sincere heart.
Dasheng, with children like Lu Changchuan, there is real hope!
The two children were very tired after practicing martial arts. They ate too fast and consumed too much energy, so they needed to replenish their energy in time.
Even Lu Yan, who is usually gentle, moved much faster.
Perhaps because he had spoken his heart out to Chen Ruoyan during the day, Lu Changchuan felt even less burdened. So at night, he fell asleep, feeling relaxed and at ease. He could hear the boy snoring from a distance.
"During the day, I heard Changchuan talk about his future plans, but I didn't hear you say it." Shen Ruoyan smiled and handed over paper and pen. Looking at his increasingly steady son, he whispered, "What about you? What do you think?"
In her heart, everything of the Lu family will be left to Lu Yan in the future.
This is what the Lu family owes him, and this is what she owes Shen Ruoyan.
But this does not mean that Lu Yan will go down this path. How he wants to go and how he wants to go, Shen Ruoyan still wants to know his true thoughts.
Lu Yan stared at the paper and pen in front of him, seemingly hesitant. His hand gripping the pen was stronger than before, but when he started writing, he hesitated even more.
Shen Ruoyan saw it and encouraged: "It doesn't matter, there are only the two of us here, mother and son. No matter what you think, no third person will know."
She would, in complete secrecy.
Because this was Lu Yan's secret, even as a mother, she had no right to tell the world.
Lu Yan is not like Lu Changchuan, that child is simple-minded and can't hide things. But Lu Yan is a child with a serious mind. If you want him to be honest, you need enough respect and patience.
Some marks that did not belong to it gradually appeared on the white paper. Lu Yan lowered his head slightly and wrote seriously.
Shen Ruoyan didn't stare directly, worried that her gaze would make Lu Yan feel pressured. So she pretended to look at the scenery, looking at the dark lake with relish.
She only turned around after Lu Yan finished writing and pushed the paper towards her.
But she never dreamed that what she saw was not Lu Yan's dream, but -
"Mother, Aunt Hong is pregnant, but the baby in her belly is not the father's, right?"
