"Mom, then - according to what you said, do you and Dad want to compromise?
My brother doesn’t want to compromise, so why do you agree to it instead?”
Xue Ling sat at the head of the bed, looked at his sleeping eldest son, and gave a low, bitter smile.
"Our family members all have a very good advantage - they value relationships.
From the seniors to the juniors like you, everyone is a person who attaches great importance to feelings.
People who value emotions are good. They make friends easily wherever they go and are easily trusted by others.
But things are often too much and too little. We attach too much importance to emotions and are easily hurt by them."
"you do not say!"
Xue Yang said in a low voice: "Money is like dung to us, and feelings are the true meaning of life that we really pursue."
Xue Ling laughed softly again and asked: "If you really regard money as dirt, you should give up dirt for love, right?
Isn’t this obvious?”
"...You can't say that."
Xue Yang curled his lips: "We didn't earn the money and the house, they were given by our parents.
If it is our own, we are naturally happy to share it with the other party.
But none of the key things are true! The things our parents own are given to us as legal inheritance, which is reasonable and legal.
Why does the other party want to divide our family's property before they even come in?
Why?
We all have to rely on our parents to pay tuition and living expenses, so we are not qualified to talk about our great abilities.
But we are willing to struggle and experience ups and downs and failures.
Why do I feel qualified to share the fruits of decades of hard work of my parents just because of a marriage certificate?
Why?"
"Um."
Xue Ling nodded and asked: "Is there any more?
Do you think it’s legal and legal for you to share the money you work hard for in the future with your partner, but your partner shouldn’t covet what your parents give you now, right?”
"That's for sure!"
Xue Yang shrugged: "Don't women advocate feminism and the true equality of men and women all day long?
She and I fell in love and got married. We are legally equal and we are equal in marriage.
I have never thought about her parents' money. I think it is up to us to work hard and work on our own. From now on, whatever our parents give us can only be used as support.
Then why should she come to share my parents’ money and house?”
Xue Ling chuckled in approval and stood up with his hands behind his back.
"That's very well said.
But men and women have different perspectives and see problems differently.
In our cultural background, many women have to depend on men for life after they grow up and get married, so they are accustomed to feeling insecure.
When two families are economically unequal, the parents of the other party will naturally want to make more considerations for their daughter, hoping that their daughter will be more secure in the future and will not have to suffer any injustice."
Xue Yang shook his head disapprovingly: "Brother's girlfriend is not a traditional woman, she is a high intellectual, a woman of the new era.
Mom, sometimes I really don’t understand.
How can women today be so greedy!"
"What kind of greedy method?"
Xue Ling asked curiously.
Xue Yang replied: “They want the freedom and independence of women in the new era, but they also want some sense of security and protection.
If the man she chooses is responsible enough, how could he not give her a sense of security?
Why can't they understand that the real protection and security lies in how she chooses a man, and in herself.
It varies from person to person and cannot be generalized.
For a man like my brother, who is tall, handsome, good-tempered, highly intellectual, and a future elite figure in the medical field, how could his girlfriend feel that she needs to rely on the name on the real estate deed to protect her happiness, instead of relying on him?
people?
I really don’t understand what women think!”
"Ha ha!"
Xue Ling was delighted when she heard this, "Your mother is also a woman.
I didn’t expect it to be that complicated!”
Xue Yang also smiled and put his arm around her shoulders.
"Mom, you are not an ordinary woman.
You are a woman who is truly confident and truly trusts that your husband can give you happiness.
The happiness you think is not in material things, but in your heart.
It is precisely because you have the correct concept that you can always be so happy."
Xue Ling laughed again and nodded in approval.
"Our family Yangyang may have the potential to be a philosopher. Look at how high-sounding these principles are-" "Where!"
Xue Yang interrupted him and puffed up his chest confidently: "What I say are real and good principles that are close to people's hearts. They are not the kind of chicken soup that looks down on you and uses high-sounding words!"
Xue Ling was amused by him again and patted his chest.
"alright.
You stay with your brother, and I'll bring him some sobering tea."
"oh oh."
… That afternoon, Cheng Huanran finally woke up, but he had a splitting headache that wouldn’t go away.
Xue Yang had no choice but to find a brain massager used by his grandmother to help him relieve the pain.
"How about it?
Feeling better?"
Cheng Huanran murmured in confusion: "It doesn't seem to hurt so much anymore..." "What are you doing drinking so much?"
As a doctor, it is impossible not to know how harmful alcohol is to the body!"
Xue Yang snorted coldly: "You do it knowing you can't do it - you deserve it!"
Cheng Huanran looked at him funny and asked: "Why are you at home?
Haven’t gone back yet?”
Xue Yang pouted aggrievedly: "The Queen Mother asked me to take leave to stay with you at home."
Cheng Huanran chuckled and ordered: "Pour me some water."
A certain younger brother had no choice but to be obedient.
Cheng Huanran drank the water, twisted his head in discomfort, and continued to lean on the buzzing massager.
"…Do you have anything to eat?
I seem to be hungry."
Xue Yang rolled his eyes and said, "Mom had the porridge cooked in the big kitchen early in the morning, and it's still being kept warm."
After saying that, he lazily wandered out.
Cheng Huanran looked at the familiar, spacious and warm room and closed his eyes unconsciously.
No matter what happens outside, it is always best to go home, and your family is also the best.
"son!"
Xue Ling walked in hurriedly and asked with concern: "Are you awake?
Is it uncomfortable?”
Cheng Huanran apologized and whispered: "...Mom, I'm fine.
Sorry, I made you worry again."
"Brat!"
Xue Ling sat over and said angrily: "You shouldn't have worried us if you knew it would make us worried.
How old are you, why are you still doing this childish and useless trick of drinking to relieve your sorrows?
You have studied medicine for so many years for nothing!"
Cheng Huanran buried his head in grievance: "Mom, I was wrong."
Xue Ling couldn't help but sigh lowly and helped him turn down the air conditioner.
"How about it?
Do you need your parents to help you negotiate with Xiao Qiao's parents?
Son, our family does not lack a house, and your name does not lack it either.
If you really like this girl, why not add her name?
Even if you can't survive in the future, it's not a big deal to give up half of your house.
As long as you work hard enough, money can be a foreign possession."
The money she gives to each child, as long as it is not spoiled or wasted, does not involve bad habits, as long as it is carefully cared for and cherished, it will be enough for them to live a nourishing and relaxed life for several lifetimes.
"The elders give you huge amounts of money so that you can live a better life, so that you will be more qualified and capable in the future and not be trapped by money, instead of becoming a burden and shackles for you."
A flash of tears flashed across Cheng Huanran's eyes, and he took Xue Ling's hand.
"Mom, it would be great if everyone could be as confident, capable, wise, considerate and kind as you..."
