Every word Mo Yan said stung Xu Wan deeply.
"Mom, you really are..." She didn't mean it that way, okay? They look so alike, everyone can tell at a glance that they are mother and daughter.
"Xu Wan, you need to remember this: I'm going to be blunt with you today. Seeing how stupid you are, I'll break everything down for you and explain it to you in detail, okay?"
Mo Yan thought that she might not have such patience in the future, since she would want to beat people up if she got too angry.
"What?" Xu Wan was a little confused, subconsciously feeling that what was said today might be something she didn't really want to face.
"Tell me how stupid you were today, and tell me what you're going to do next."
Mo Yan pointed to the chair next to her, "Sit down."
Xu Wan obediently went over and sat down, with Mo Yan sitting opposite her.
"Since you rented the house, what do you mean by saying you rented the house right at your doorstep?"
Do you want everyone to know that you, Xu Wan, are determined to marry no one but Wei Yang? Or do you want everyone to know how stupid you are?
Xu Wan was a little confused. "I just felt that this way, being close to home would allow me to come and see you more often."
"Don't say I'm freeloading. You two aren't even married yet and you're already thinking about living together. Do you think people will think you're a good girl if they see this?"
People will think you're a gold digger, like you can't stand men and you'll fawn over any man you see, you know?
You two are always together, what if you two don't stay together in the future?
People will think you're second-hand, since you're not even married yet and you want to live together? Are you out of your mind? Tell me!
Mo Yan was really afraid that she wouldn't understand, so she could only keep it as simple as possible.
"Mom, what are you thinking? Nothing will happen if we live together, can't you stop thinking so ridiculously?"
Xu Wan didn't really intend to do anything; she just wanted to be with Wei Yang every moment, to see him when she woke up, and to see him before she went to sleep.
"Whether or not something happened between you two is not important. What is important is that other people will only see the two of you living together, and will naturally assume that the two of you are already together."
If a girl moves in with someone before marriage, it's like she's paying him to stay, you know?
In other words, if people think you don't care about anything and you can be with them without getting married, how can their family respect you?
Mo Yan looked at Xu Wan, wondering if this char siu even had a brain.
"What do you mean? How could they look down on me? They must really like me, they're all coming to see me."
“Look up to you? I’m sorry, a daughter-in-law who hasn’t spent a penny, and doesn’t even need to contribute any money, has nothing to be proud of.”
Their family doesn't need a bride price or any formalities to have a daughter-in-law; it's like getting her for free.
I ask you, if you buy a bag and take good care of it, would you want it if it was used and got dirty?
Xu Wan: "..."
How could you treat her like a handbag?
"I'm asking you, do you want it or not?" Mo Yan asked with a dark face.
"No," Xu Wan could only answer honestly. Why would she want something that's already dirty or used by someone else?
"That would be great, but what if this bag was given away for free, and it also came with lots of little gifts?"
“I would think it’s fake, but I would still take it back because it’s cheap. However, I would never take good care of it, since I didn’t pay for it.”
Xu Wan was honest with her mother.
