Chen Xuanxuan was shocked when she heard this.

So she quickly put down the snack in her hand, shook her head and said, "Mom, please don't think like that, and don't do that!"

"Think about it carefully. For a family like ours, how could those with truly noble status really give us a proper status?"

"I am thinking realistically. I hope to find someone who is smart and good-looking... I just want to borrow some seeds from them. As long as the seeds are good, the melons that grow out will be sweet... When we have money, we can send the baby to school. The baby is naturally smart and will definitely make progress in his studies. When he passes the imperial examination, I, as his mother, and you, as his grandmother, may be able to be granted the title of Lady of the Imperial Court... Hahaha, in this way, won't we be able to enjoy the good life with the baby?" When

old lady Liu heard this, she suddenly felt that she was a concubine and had no ambition!

What's wrong with women like them who came from ordinary families? !

You know, as long as a woman is good-looking, has means, and good opportunities, it is not impossible for her to soar to the top.

When Old Lady Liu was with Captain Gao, she heard a lot of historical stories from him.

Some stories say that in the previous dynasties, there were many empresses and empress dowagers who were born from common people.

The reason why those empresses and empress dowagers had such high positions and could enjoy the blessings that ordinary people could not enjoy in their lifetime was because they had good opportunities, caught the eyes of nobles, and gave birth to sons for the nobles. Those who could not give birth to sons could also borrow other people's bellies with the support of their husbands to give themselves a son to raise.

Every time old lady Liu heard these stories, she would think to herself, "Why can those women do it, but I can't? Why can't my own daughter do it?"

Men have such ambitions in their hearts. Some men often say, "Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different races born with such ambitions ?"

If men can have such great ambitions, why can't women?

Thinking of this, old lady Liu rolled her eyes at her daughter and then said excitedly, "Daughter, you can't look down on yourself!"

"Don't think all day long that people of our status are not worthy of such people. Your conditions in all aspects are actually not bad!"

"Do you know? The good empresses and empress dowagers in the past were all widows who had remarried several times in our folks!! Don't listen to the nonsense of those old bachelors who can't get a wife, saying that remarried women are worthless...Haha, those old bachelors who can't get a wife, what they say is like fart, no one takes it seriously..."

Chen Xuanxuan didn't want to talk too deeply about this topic with her mother.

So, after taking a deep breath, Chen Xuanxuan told the old lady Liu frankly, "Mom, I understand, I understand."

"After all, I am your daughter. You are in your fifties or sixties, and you can still marry into a family like Captain Huang. As for me, maybe I can marry that nobleman in the future..."

Chen Xuanxuan said this with a smile, which made the old lady Liu smile.

"Hahaha, right, that's right, you should think like this, thinking like this is called having ambition!"

"I tell you, girl, as women, we should not belittle ourselves casually. In this life, we must have ambition, ambition, and our own ideas. Don't think about those unreasonable things all day long, thinking that as women, we should obediently serve a man like a cow or a horse, a pig or a dog for the rest of our lives."

"My dear, we are mother and daughter. I am telling you these words from the bottom of my heart. Don't look at the men in this world who praise those virtuous and wise women with all their enthusiasm... In fact, they are just flattering them. What real benefits can those stupid women get except a good reputation that looks good but is useless?"

Seeing Chen Xuanxuan's face change and her eyes filled with surprise, the old lady Liu couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She felt that she had married her daughter off too early.

There were some things that she didn't have time to teach her!

"My dear, today, no matter what, you have to listen to me."

"As women, we can't be rigid about those rules. I tell you, no matter where you are, the bigger the fist, the more rules. Who dares to provoke such a powerful person? When our family had no power, no influence, and no one was famous, who in the surrounding villages would not bully me and your father?... Do you know how I felt at that time? I felt that our whole family was worse off than an animal!"

Chen Xuanxuan felt that her mother was getting emotional. She thought about it, opened her mouth, and finally didn't have the heart to interrupt her.

Because she felt from the beginning that her mother was actually a person with a story.

So, she calmed down and listened carefully.

"My dear, I have lived to this age and I have figured it out a long time ago. When we women get married, we must marry capable men who can support the whole family and are responsible. If we women don't find such men, we won't have a good life."

"Some men live in poverty and dare not even fart outside. But when they get home, they start to dominate and either beat their wives or their children. If you give him a small opinion, he will get furious with you and make the whole family restless. Your fake father now was such a bastard before!"

"I followed him wholeheartedly at that time. When I didn't cheat on him, he suspected that I was cheating on him every day. He either beat me or scolded me. Sometimes he even grabbed my hair and ran to other families in the village to beat me up. While beating me, he kept saying that I was a whore. But later I figured it out. I let it go."

"My dear, isn't it ridiculous for a man to say that? Ever since I found a few lovers outside, and each of them is better than him, he dares not even fart at home!" When

Chen Xuanxuan heard this, she immediately realized that her nominal father, the one called Chen Decai, seemed to have the same nature as her father-in-law, both of whom like to bully the weak and fear the strong... Thinking of
