Chapter 724: Chapter 698: Physical Attacks are not as good as Magic Attacks (Thank you kateliu for the white-silver tip 33 updates)
“Master, what if I don’t want to get married? Can I just remain single forever?” Thinking about Ma Lu’s family made Liu i’s head hurt.
“No, you can’t. If you remain unmarried, no one will share your fortunes and your family will be dood to misfortune. Rember that!”
After hanging up the phone, Liu i felt heavy-hearted. Master’s words were too harsh – not getting married would implicate her own family…
If it were just her own bad luck, she could handle it. She didn’t think marriage was all that great, and being a single woman wasn’t a big deal. But if her family suffered misfortune, that would be a different story.
After solving Shuixian’s problem, Yu Minglang called Liu i back. He was well aware of the absurd behavior of her boyfriend’s family and naturally, as her elder, he had to intervene.
“I’ve seen what that family is like. Are you clear about what they’re like too? Just now when I talked to the guy about borrowing money for Grandmother’s illness, did he say sothing like, ‘Just give a little less, buying a house is more important?'”
...
Xiao Qian looked at Yu Minglang, impressed by his clever strategy!
“Ah? You ntioned the matter about Grandma?” Liu i finally realized why Ma Lu reacted so strangely.
Upon reflection, he was really a person of poor character, always hiding away at the first sign of trouble, and Liu i’s disdain for him grew stronger.
“Now you see what kind of person he is, right?”
“A little bit…” Liu i’s answer did not satisfy Yu Minglang, who reluctantly nodded.
“Tomorrow, tell them to go back the way they ca, and if you’re too embarrassed to say so, I’ll negotiate with them.”
By the way, Yu Minglang had long wanted to beat the scumbag Ma Lu. His fists were itching for action.
“But… I still want to marry Ma Lu.”
Before Liu i could finish speaking, she felt a leg rushing towards her. She cleverly jumped back, narrowly avoiding Yu Minglang’s kick.
“Brother! I’m a girl! You can’t hit girls!”
“When you decided to marry him, did you think about the fact that you’re a girl? Get over here, let kick so sense into you! Don’t hide behind your sister-in-law!”
Liu i had no intention of coming out and stayed close behind Xiao Qian, holding tightly onto her clothes.
Her sister-in-law was like her shining amulet~
“Co out, and I promise I won’t kill you!” Yu Minglang looked at Liu i, who was stubbornly refusing to co out, and wanted to kick her.
“Sister-in-law, save !”
“Look at you, you’re a grown man, and you still use the sa thods as when you were kids? Move aside and let handle this.”
Xiao Qian pushed Yu Minglang away and took charge of the conversation. Yu Minglang gestured nacingly to Liu i, who made a face at him.
With her sister-in-law present, she didn’t have to worry about being beaten by her violent brother!
Xiao Qian’s deanor turned kind and gentle as she held Liu i’s hand and sat down.
“Let’s talk this through, okay, izi?”
“Yes, yes, let’s talk! My brother only knows how to hit . Sister-in-law, you don’t know how terrible he is!”
“If you get bullied outside, don’t co crying to ! Can’t you see that not a single person in that family is normal? The man is spineless like a dog, the elders are cunning like monkeys, and the Aunt lacks morals. Are you planning to be their punching bag when you marry into that family?”
Xiao Qian stopped Yu Minglang. “Why are you so anxious? It’s not like the Ma Family is a den of dragons and tigers. You make it sound so sinister.”
Yu Minglang looked at her disbelievingly. His wife was siding with them?
“Exactly! It’s not that scary. I’ll have to marry soone anyway, and I can’t escape these things in any family. I have to get married this year.” Liu i thought of her own family, and her Master’s words echoed in her ears.
“In general, marrying into the Ma Family isn’t that bad. Our izi is good at martial arts and can endure a lot. As long as you…” Xiao Qian began to prophesize with her fingers bending.
“…accept their unequal treatnt, you should be fine. For example, when it cos to earning money and sharing the burden of supporting the family, they’ll talk about gender equality – you can’t earn less than their son, or it’s your fault because we are now in an era of gender equality. But when it cos to household chores, you’ll have to endure their old-fashioned ideas and take on all the housework. In their eyes, the Qing Dynasty hasn’t really ended. You’re just a step away from having bound feet…”
Listening to Xiao Qian’s words, Yu Minglang felt relieved.
Liu i swallowed hard. Her sister-in-law’s verbal attacks were even more powerful than her brother’s kicks. If her brother represented physical attacks, her sister-in-law certainly wielded powerful magic attacks, hitting the nail on the head in every sentence.
Shuixian added her own thoughts.
“Anyway, I can see it. When it cos to property, they talk about gender equality with you. When it cos to housework, they start preaching tradition again. They’re trying to have it both ways. Can you really bear with all of this?”
A woman who can endure all these challenges must have an incredibly strong inner strength!
“Based on my years of clinical experience and observation of many bizarre phoenix n’s families, I’ve noticed that these families have an almost twisted obsession with their sons. You must make sure to give birth to a boy. If your first child isn’t a son, they will force you to have a second, third…”
Keep giving birth until a boy is born, as if won only exist to bear sons. A woman without a son, no matter her achievents or contributions to the family, would be seen as worthless in their eyes.
Liu i felt chills down her spine.
Xiao Qian’s smile beca even gentler. “Besides that, you also have to endure being scolded by your in-laws during argunts, being told ‘Get out of my son’s house!'”
Even Shuixian couldn’t stand hearing that. “But isn’t the house bought by Liu i’s family?”
Yu Minglang was now counting on his fingers, eager to puml Ma Lu.
“These people suffer from selective amnesia. They only rember their son’s na on the property deed and forget that the money ca from the woman’s side.”
“Screw their entire family… who gave them the courage to think like that?” Even Shuixian, a lady, couldn’t help but curse.
If Yu Minglang beat Liu i, she might only feel physical pain, and maybe it would even strengthen her resolve to marry the scumbag.
However, Xiao Qian gently spoke to Liu i and left a deep shadow in her heart.
What should she do now? She was so lost.
“Liu i, are you worried about the curse your master talked about – that bad luck will befall you if you don’t get married?” Xiao Qian knew this was the only thing that was still bothering Liu i.
“Right, sister-in-law, you understand - Brother, where are you going?”
“I’m going to challenge your master one-on-one for spreading feudal superstition and cultural garbage!”
“You stop ssing around, I’m going to et her master sooner or later!” Boss Qian was also eager to confront Liu i’s female Doctor of Psychology.
“Liu i, if you trust your sister-in-law, don’t listen to everything your master says. Whether it’s fortune-telling or a psychologist, no one can be 100% accurate. The future is uncertain. If you really marry Ma Lu, that’s when your family will be in trouble. Think about what I told you about postpartum depression. If you jump off a building because you married Ma Lu, how do you think your family will feel?”
The battle between traditional taphysics and the female Doctor of Psychology had begun, waged in the depths of Liu i’s heart.
