Now that we have come to an unsafe society like ancient times, learning some martial arts for self-defense is much better than playing chess, calligraphy and painting.
She doesn't want to hook up with men, nor does she want to live dependent on men. She just needs to have at least a little ability to protect herself.
However, she didn't want to express this idea immediately. She wanted to propose it at the end, so that the chance of being accepted would be higher.
"Why don't Luo'er learn to cook? Then I can cook for my mother and concubine myself." She said filially.
Liu Fei'er laughed, with admiration on her face, but a little ridicule in her heart.
If a princess becomes a cook, no matter how delicious her cooking is, can she be as good as the royal chef? Could a prince or noble marry her just to eat the food she cooks?
"Besides this, is there anything else you like?"
"Hmm - Luo'er needs to think about this carefully. How about learning to grow flowers? You can also take better care of the flowers and plants in Fuliu Hall. If the emperor likes it, he will come often, right, concubine?
"
"Any more?"
"Study medicine? You can treat your mother and concubine. The prescription the third prince sent last time cured your mother's insomnia. If Luo'er learns medical skills, he won't need to use it if he feels any discomfort in the future.
It’s troublesome for others.”
Liu Fei'er was no longer patient, and there was a hint of helplessness on her face. "Luo'er, after learning these things, can you be better than the imperial chef, imperial doctor, and gardener? Your husband will not need you in the future.
To do these, why not choose from among the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and dance. As a princess, you must have a skill, otherwise the other princes and princesses will laugh at you."
After listening to this, Su Luo murmured in frustration: "But Luo'er is so stupid, and he is already far behind the princesses in terms of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, how can he be better than them? Unless Luo'er learns the equestrian swordsmanship that the princes learn.
In martial arts, one must be superior to the princesses. That way, even if the skills are average, they will still be considered special."
When Liu Fei'er heard this, she realized that it was indeed true. But when she saw Su Luo's small body, so thin that a gust of wind might blow her over, Liu Fei'er frowned.
"You are too thin, how can you bear the hardships? You should study hard on anything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."
"No, no, concubine, Luo'er's poor health is because he didn't eat well before and lacked exercise. Now that concubine takes care of him and loves him, his body and bones will definitely become stronger!"
