Chapter 769: Precious
"I..." Su Xiao pondered for a moment and answered truthfully, "Actually, I'm quite scared. I'm afraid I won't do well, that he'll be laughed at, and that I won't be able to help him. I often think, how great it would be if I were your sister-in-law. I would also help Yun Che like you do, but I simply can't do it."
The lady smiled gently. "Everyone has different personalities and approaches to things differently. Your sister-in-law is very outstanding and a rare woman. But you have your own strengths. There's no need to compare yourself with her."
Su Xiao smiled innocently, but worry and confusion were still visible in her eyes.
The lady took her to sit in the pavilion, and Lan Qiuling also sat on the other side.
The lady looked back and forth at the mother and daughter, and said slowly, "Hui'er, as I told you just now, no one is born knowing how to do those things. They are all learned bit by bit, and sometimes even learned through painful experiences. So, you don't need to be afraid. Everyone has their own value. You are different from others, you are unique. You can't replace others, and others can't replace you. The fact that Ah Che chose you among so many women and loves you so much just shows that you are different and that you are the best in his mind. You should be proud, proud, and confident.
As for Qiu Ling, I know you're worried about Hui'er, and you're right to be strict with her, but after all, she's the child you carried for ten months and gave birth to. If you don't love her, who will? You can educate her, but you can't always beat or scold her. The child is older and has self-esteem. You have to give her some face, and ask yourself, is she really that bad? Is your own daughter really that bad? Haha... In short, I have confidence that Hui'er will be no worse than Qu Si in the future, and she will definitely become an excellent and virtuous wife to A Che. "
Madam's words were extremely precious to Su Xiao. They really touched her heart so much that she almost couldn't help crying.
All along, her mother always said that she was not good enough in this and that, and asked how she could help Yun Che in the future, how she could be an excellent and virtuous wife, and how she could keep Yun Che's heart.
And Qu Si kept saying that she was a fool and a clown who was not presentable.
But the lady said that she believed that her future would be no worse than Qu Si.
She never thought about competing with Qu Si, because she knew she could not compare with Qu Si. She just hoped that she could do her duty well and not fall too far behind or be inferior to him.
But in fact, every time something goes wrong, she always seems to be the one who makes the mistake.
Seeing Su Xiao's tearful eyes and trembling body, the lady hugged her shoulders lovingly and said, "Silly girl, we as people must first give ourselves confidence. We can be humble, but we can't underestimate ourselves. You must believe in your own abilities and be confident in yourself. Only with this confidence can you overcome those obstacles and become more and more outstanding. I heard that you used to be in the design industry, and your designs are quite unique. Can you design a brooch for me when you have time? The designs of previous designers are good, but I always get a little tired of them. I want to see your craftsmanship."
Su Xiao opened her eyes wide, looking at the lady in shock and joy, and said in a trembling voice, "You...you want me to help you design a brooch. Well, I used to do this business, but later I was delayed due to various things. I'm afraid that the design will not meet your requirements."
"It's okay, just try it, I have confidence in you."
I have confidence in you!
This is another important statement.
Su Xiao's whole body seemed to be filled with strength, and she said repeatedly, "Okay, then I'll give it a try. I'll think about it carefully when I get back and come up with the design as soon as possible."
"Haha, don't worry. Don't let it affect your daily life. You have so many children to take care of, and you're still running that club. You must be very busy. Make sure you get enough rest. A healthy and strong body is the foundation of everything."
"Well, I'll make arrangements. Thank you for your concern."
Next, the Madam looked at Lan Qiuling and began to talk to her. Su Xiao quietly stayed beside them, listening attentively. She felt more and more that the Madam was truly outstanding and amazing. Just as Yun Che had said, she would learn many valuable things from the Madam.
Of course, her mother, Lan Qiuling, was actually also a very outstanding official's wife, but her mother's approach was different, which caused her to always feel a sense of fear and alienation in her heart. The lady was different, which made her feel very secure and calm.
The meeting lasted more than two hours. Su Xiao said goodbye to her mother and wife and set off on her journey home.
The mother and daughter didn't talk much along the way. Su Xiao secretly glanced at her mother from time to time, and several times she happened to see her mother looking at her, which made everyone feel a little awkward.
Lan Qiuling cleared her throat, suppressed her discomfort, and asked, "What do you think of meeting Madam today?"
Su Xiao stared at her, pondered for a moment, and decided to tell the truth, "Madam is a very good person. I feel like I have learned a lot. Of course, I'm not saying anything bad about you, it's just..."
"I'm sorry, Hui'er!" Lan Qiuling apologized suddenly.
Su Xiao was stunned and said quickly, "No, don't be like this, you haven't let me down."
Lan Qiuling raised her hand, signaling her not to be nervous. In fact, she was present throughout the meeting today and naturally noticed her daughter's emotional changes, which made her feel very sad. She reflected on whether what she had done to her daughter was wrong or too much!
Undoubtedly, she truly wanted the best for her daughter. She knew very well what Yun Che's future would be like, and she also wanted to gain some glory from her son-in-law. Naturally, she had very high expectations for Su Xiao. Su Xiao was different from Qu Si. She didn't have to worry about Qu Si at all, because Qu Si would do very well. But for Su Xiao, she would not allow the glory she longed for to be ruined by Su Xiao.
But she never thought about whether it was right for her to force her daughter to grow up like this.
Just now, when she heard the lady say, "I believe our daughter will be no worse than Qu Si in the future," she was deeply shocked. She had never said this to her daughter before!
This is a great encouragement, and this is the correct motivation for my daughter. My daughter already has low self-esteem, and I criticize and scold her everywhere, thinking that she is not good enough in this or that way. Wouldn't this only undermine her self-confidence, and then make her retreat into her shell!
Fortunately, I brought her to see the lady today.
Lan Qiuling was sincerely grateful to the lady in her heart.
I thought to myself, it’s not too late to change now.
After that, Lan Qiuling didn't say anything more, but just grabbed Su Xiao's hand and squeezed it repeatedly.
Su Xiao clearly felt the love from her mother, which was very different from the feeling she usually had. Thinking of her mother's words, she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart.
It was just past twelve o'clock when I got home. The little ones were all having lunch and resting at school. Only Xixi was there. Su Xiao played with Xixi for a while, not even taking a nap, and then quickly took out her own picture album.
Although her wife told her not to rush, she was still very anxious and wanted to finish it right away. She stayed indoors tinkering with it the whole afternoon. When Yun Che came home from get off work, he saw her sitting at the table, looking very serious and devoted, as if she was drawing something.
"Su Xiao?" he called out.
Su Xiao turned around, the light and sparkle in her eyes were so breathtaking that Yun Che almost froze.
