Chapter 233: Life is only a few decades long



When old lady Liu was young, she was indeed a romantic figure.

Although old lady Liu is now over fifty years old, her hair is half white, and her former appearance is no longer there, but when she talks about those young and handsome boys, her eyes are shining with gold, and she is very excited while talking.

Chen Xuanxuan can see that the old mother in front of her still likes those young men.

"Mom, are those young boys really as good as you say? They can read, look good, dance with swords, recite poems, dance and so on. I have lived with you for so many years, why haven't I seen such beautiful boys?"

Old lady Liu heard this and directly opened her mouth to retort her.

"With those eyes of yours, if I ask you to go to the street to find a few people you like, you won't be able to find any!"

"My dear daughter, I am your mother and I will not harm you. Now I will tell you something from the bottom of my heart. Life is actually only a hundred years. Those who are a little shorter may only live for a few decades. I have heard people say that life is short, so don't waste your good time. As human beings, we must be worthy of ourselves. We must learn to enjoy life in time. We must see more of the world while we are young."

Noticing that her daughter was listening particularly seriously at this moment, the old lady Liu took a deep breath and said to Chen Xuanxuan sincerely.

"My dear, as someone who has been through this, I sometimes really feel sorry for you and feel anxious for you."

"Look at you, in your life, you have only married such a man. Well, don't tell me how good that man is to you. I tell you, if he is really good to you and has real ability, then when you marry him, he should let you live a good life. Instead of letting you suffer for more than ten years in vain...." "

Besides, this man is actually only temporary. There are very few couples who accompany each other until old age..."

That morning, Chen Xuanxuan talked a lot with old lady Liu.

What life, ideals, what kind of life she wants to live in the future, old lady Liu had a detailed discussion with Chen Xuanxuan.

The more in-depth the communication between Chen Xuanxuan and old lady Liu, the more she admired her.

Moreover, this was the first time that Chen Xuanxuan realized that women in ancient times were actually diverse.

Under the Three Principles and Five Constant Virtues, women who were bound by feudalism had a very hard life.

On the contrary, her mother lived a more carefree life.

Chen Xuanxuan had to admire some powerful women in ancient times.

"Mom, to be honest, you have arranged so much for me, and I don't want to let you down. Otherwise, when can we take some time to go and have a look?"

In the backward ancient countryside, Chen Xuanxuan felt that her life in the past few years had been particularly boring.

Some people always say that the countryside has beautiful mountains, waters, beautiful scenery, good people, good things, and good weather. However, for Chen Xuanxuan, who has lived here for more than five years, it is really not the case.

From a distance, the vast countryside does have beautiful mountains, waters, and beautiful scenery, but there are no cement roads here.

Therefore, whether it is windy or rainy, whether it is sunny or rainy, the various paths on the mountain are actually very difficult to walk.

Especially when it rains outside. Whether it is the road on the mountain or the road in the county town, there is mud everywhere.

Anyone who wears shoes and steps on it will be covered with mud on the soles.

After walking on these messy muddy roads for a long time, Chen Xuanxuan now feels particularly scared when she sees them.

Because they are really useless.

So, this is also the reason why Chen Xuanxuan stays at home for a long time.

However, as long as you are a normal person, you need to socialize.

And it must be the kind of socializing that makes you feel happy physically and mentally.

Chen Xuanxuan has been away from people for a long time, and now she longs for that kind of social life. She wants to talk with those young and energetic young people, sing songs and dance together.

She thinks that if she stays with those young and energetic young people for a long time, she will become younger.

"Mom, I actually think what you said is quite reasonable. I quite agree with it."

"Mom, sometimes I admire you very much..."

Just when Chen Xuanxuan had prepared her speech and was about to say something else, the old lady Liu suddenly grabbed her hand excitedly and said very sincerely, "My dear girl, don't worry, I will definitely help you with the matter you promised."

"What about this young man? It's all about mutual consent. If you can hit it off with one of them, then you can talk about it in private."

"..."

Chen Xuanxuan didn't turn around when she heard this. However, she nodded especially appropriately.

When the old lady Liu saw this, she immediately smiled with satisfaction.

She felt that her daughter was indeed teachable.

Old Lady Liu had figured it out when she was young. As a woman, she still had to value herself and care about herself. She had to learn to always put herself first. Otherwise, no one would think from the bottom of their hearts that she was a person. She would also have her own needs.

After briefly chatting with her daughter about coming to Shicheng for half an hour, the two of them went straight to the living room at the notice of Butler Huang to have dinner with everyone.

The food level of the Huang family is indeed quite high.

Although there are not many masters in the Huang family, they still put a full 16 dishes on a large round table.

On the table there are stewed pig's trotters with peanuts, spicy tofu skin and preserved vegetable braised pork, steamed pork with rice flour, pork belly, and twice-cooked pork. There is also a particularly famous squirrel mandarin fish.

In addition, there was a plate of roast duck and a large bowl of fried chicken on the table. ...

The most important thing was that in the middle of the table, there was a wooden plate with a roasted whole lamb.

Chen Xuanxuan was still staring at the dishes seriously, and a man who had deep intentions for her suddenly said to her in a serious manner, "Do you want to eat roasted whole lamb?"

Chen Xuanxuan turned around and was stunned for a moment. She really didn't expect that the person sitting next to her was actually his eldest brother-in-law.

"Third sister, your eldest sister..."

Chen Xuanxuan actually didn't care much about her step-sister and step-sister, but now that they were brought up, maybe she pretended to care and asked sincerely, "So they should be doing well now, right?"
