Su Manwen's tone was a little sharp at the end of her sentence, which made Old Madam Gu's ears feel a little uncomfortable.
"We're not having the baby yet. But we'll have to have it sooner or later. It's better to prepare now so we won't be flustered later," said Madam Gu.
“That’s true.” Su Manwen smiled awkwardly. “But this preparation is too early. Chu Xia is only a freshman now, and she won’t graduate for at least three or four years.”
What Su Manwen wanted to say was, with so much time to spare, what if Lin Chuxia and Gu Yuheng broke up by then?
But saying that might get her scolded, so she changed her words, "Chu Xia should at least graduate before having a baby, otherwise it's not good to neglect her studies for having a baby."
Su Manwen spoke in a tone that seemed to be concerned for Lin Chuxia, "Although you can marry Yu Heng and not work so that he can support you, it's not good for a girl to have too low an education level, especially since Yu Heng has such a status. If his wife has too low an education level, people will laugh at her."
However, Old Madam Gu immediately disliked these words and sternly retorted, "What's so laughable about this? It's their life as a young couple. As long as Yuheng doesn't mind, it's none of anyone else's business."
"Hmm. I don't mind." He was more than happy for her to suggest that she stop going to school and stay home with him every day, so why would he mind?
Moreover, his level of education is not the reason why he likes her.
So, when he took a liking to her, she hadn't even graduated from high school yet, but now she's in college, her education level is more than one level higher, he should be secretly happy.
The successive defenses by Madam Gu and Gu Yuheng made Su Manwen increasingly embarrassed.
"Um, sorry, maybe I misunderstood. I think girls should be independent and strong, and shouldn't rely on men for everything. Otherwise, the husband will have too much of a burden and will be too tired."
"What's the big deal? With so many people in the Gu family company, can't they find anyone who can do the work? There's no need for Chu Xia to worry about work."
As she spoke, Madam Gu then said to Lin Chuxia, "Chuxia, do whatever you want. If you're really bored, go shopping and buy whatever you like. Our family has plenty of money. As for the company, don't worry about it. Let Yuheng take care of those things."
She glared at Gu Yuheng and said, "If you can't even support your own wife, you might as well not come home!"
Gu Yuheng: "..."
Madam Gu's words left Su Manwen speechless for a long time; she was filled with shock and jealousy.
She was shocked because she never expected that a prestigious family like the Gu family would have such low requirements for their daughter-in-law, so low that it could be said that they had no requirements at all.
She thought that to become Gu Yuheng's wife, she would need at least a master's degree to be worthy of his status.
Su Manwen glanced in Gu Yuheng's direction.
Because Lin Chuxia was in between, there was a distance between the two.
The man's handsome features were slightly lowered, and his face showed a tenderness she had never seen before.
However, this tenderness was not directed at her.
Realizing this, Su Manwen felt a pain in her heart that made it difficult for her to breathe.
After drinking half a bowl of soup, Lin Chuxia picked up her chopsticks, took a large shrimp, and placed it directly on Gu Yuheng's plate.
