Chapter 1298: Teaching My Little Wife

Would she recklessly insist on marrying her only daughter off to a family like that just to get even?

Mo Chengxi hurried to comfort Zhong Bingyuan when he saw that she was upset. “Don’t be upset. I’m not saying that it’s definitely like that. I’m just analyzing it and saying this might be a possibility.

“Yuan Yuan, your maternal grandfather’s side, the Zheng family, are scholars. Scholars are all very lofty, and your mother is the same. She has a scholar’s lofty air, but you also know that scholars had a very low status in the past, and were even bullied and despised. This fall was a big blow to the Zheng family. In their hearts, they can’t accept it.

“Then society opened up, and they slowly regained their status. Now, society is progressing faster and faster, and those illiterate peasants have made their fortunes in business. Those who were already business-savvy are even richer. Scholars instinctively despise businessmen, but in today’s society, it is people like us who are superior to them. They must be incredibly angry and indignant!”

Zhong Bingyuan: “…”

She could not accept it. This was her mother. She had never thought about her like that in the past. She just thought that her mother naturally favored scholars because she was from a scholarly family. But with Mo Chengxi’s analysis, she thought of some details that she had glossed over in the past which made her think there was truth to it.

Her mother had emphasized many times that Mo Chengxi’s family was in business. They were coarse and cunning. Why should they be admired?

Only scholars were cultured, only scholars were noble, only scholars were worthy of respect.

To be a scholar was to be the cream of society!

Zhong Bingyuan was very sad. She did not want to admit that her mother was so psychologically twisted.

When she was young, her mother disciplined her very strictly, but not to this extent.

Besides… she had always been like that. Why hadn’t she noticed when she was younger?

Mo Chengxi patted the girl’s head when he saw her mood dip and kissed her forehead. “Don’t be sad. It’s quite easily solved. They may be our parents, but not every parent wants only what is best for their child. Don’t you agree?

“You are very fortunate. Besides your mother, whose thinking is rather extreme, your other family members are all very good to you. Yuan Yuan, don’t be sad. Someone like your mother just has to be handled properly so that she doesn’t dare to control you, and it will be fine. Besides that, she is still your mother.”

“What should I do?”

Mo Chengxi said, “In the future, you should boast to your mother and tell her you are the future Young Madam of the Mo family. Besides, you are her only daughter, and only your abilities will ensure that she has a high status in the Zhong family and among the rich matrons in the capital. A child’s glory reflects on her mother.

“At present, the entire capital knows you are my girlfriend, and lots of people envy you. If others find out that we’ve broken up, it won’t matter what the real reason is. Everyone will laugh at you for being dumped by me and say that I didn’t want you. The entire Zhong family will be shamed. As for your mother, she will also become a target for scorn.

“Others will mock her for raising a useless daughter. The Zhong family will blame her for offending the Mo family and causing the entire family to suffer. What standing will she have after that?”
