“I’m sorry, Old Master Shangguan. I don’t want to make my relationship public at the moment. After all, I’m still a student. Especially since I want to start my career first.” Jiang Ling’er smiled and said.

Hearing the word ‘career’, Old Master Shangguan frowned and then smiled contemptuously. He said, “It’s fine for a girl to just get married and have children. She can stay at home and take care of her husband and kids,”

It was fine to look after her husband and raise her children, but she couldn’t just let her career go to waste. Jiang Ling’er did not refute him directly, but she only smiled before saying, “Old Master Shangguan is right, but I’m not at the age to get married yet. So, before 1 do, I want to do my own things.”

Her words surprised Old Master Shangguan. After all, many women now thought that the concept of taking care of their husbands and raising their children was old-fashioned.

He questioned, “Why? Don’t you reject this idea? Girls nowadays think that this concept is wrong. What do you think about it?”

“Why would I reject it?” Jiang Ling’er asked with some doubt. “To me, taking care of my husband and raising my children doesn’t conflict with my career.” “Why not?” Old Master Shangguan asked seriously. “If you were doing business, how could you have the time to take care of your husband and raise your children?”

Jiang Ling’er frowned and said, “How do 1 put this into words? It’s a two-person job to look after the marriage and raise the kids. For ordinary families, there are cases where the woman also has to work overtime. After work, she has to clean up the house and take care of the children and the elderly. It’s very tiring. Sometimes, she wouldn’t have the time to do all that. When that time comes, shouldn’t the husband share her burdens?”

Old Master Shangguan replied, “Heh… Since you think managing that is hard, then stay at home and take care of your husband and children.”

Jiang Ling’er replied, “Old Master Shangguan, I’ve already told you. Do you think a man from an ordinary family can be like your grandson? Do you think he can earn millions of yuan from every job he does? Ordinary women would love to just stay at home and take care of their husbands and children. However, do you think this society will give them such an opportunity?”

Old Master Shangguan was speechless. What this girl said made sense, but why was it so strange?

Jiang Ling’er sneered in her heart. She sighed softly and continued, “If a woman from an ordinary family saw her beloved man working like a dog every day for the family’s sake, do you think that she would still be able to just deal with things at home? Of course, she would go out to work to reduce her lover’s burden. At that point, what would happen to her children? No matter how tiring work is, she can tutor her kids at home, but there will always be times when she doesn’t. As a husband, seeing his wife working so hard outside and then coming home tired to take care of the whole family, would he still have a conscience if he didn’t help her? What do you think, Old Master Shangguan?”

Li Yu and Shangguan Lin looked at each other. The old man had already fallen into a ditch by now.

On the other hand, Chen Yizhou smiled and did not say anything. He did not expect Old Master Shangguan to be tricked by Jiang Ling’er so easily.

Old Master Shangguan replied, “You said it yourself. You’re referring to an ordinary family, right…”

Before he could finish, Jiang Ling’er interrupted him. “For rich families, women may have it easy because they can find a job that they like and not have much worries. This is because they don’t have to work overtime since they have nannies, drivers, and even butlers to settle the housework.”

She paused for a moment, then continued, “When the children are out of school, the wife can play with them or tutor them. When they want to rest, let the husband take care of them. After all, men belong to the family.”

Old Master Shangguan shook his head and said, “1 still think that it’s a woman’s job to take care of her husband and raise her children,”

Jiang Ling’er did not refute. She said, “It’s your business if you think so. Others can’t interfere. For example, I think that taking care of a husband and raising children has nothing to do with working.”

She glanced at Li Yu and continued, “Since ancient times, it has been a woman’s duty to take care of her husband and raise her children. However, modern women need more ability and knowledge. It can also be said that they must be cultured. If they don’t even have the ability to socialize, how can they help their husband take care of the children? Therefore, they also need to work, improve their social skills as well as their manners.”

Old Master Shangguan said with a frown, “But the women still ultimately belong to the family,”

She replied, “That’s right, but it’s not just women. Men ultimately belong there as well, so can you still say that men don’t need a family?”

Old Master Shangguan was speechless.

She said seriously, “If you don’t get rid of new things and don’t learn to socialize, you will soon be eliminated by both society and your lover. If one day, you suddenly find that you have nothing to talk about with your significant other, your family will soon come to an end..”
