Chapter 1841 - 1837: Who Do You Think You Are
"Haha, what can you do, go act in movies? I know you’re out there as some so-called star. Can that put food on the table? I’m telling you, if any of our kids wanted to do something like that, I’d tell them: if you go for it, we’ll cut ties." The woman crossed her arms, looking utterly disdainful.
Ye Ning let out a cold laugh, "You’ve got it wrong."
"What?"
The person looked Ye Ning up and down, unable to see what else she was capable of.
Ye Ning said, "What these hands of mine can do goes beyond the reach of your narrow mind. Moreover, only by freeing our hands can we do more. I don’t believe a mother must achieve certain things to be worthy of being a mother. Such words are just like foot-binding cloths from the old times, except the cloth isn’t wrapped around feet but around your narrow-minded thoughts."
"You... how dare you speak like that."
"Maybe it’s because you hold onto children all day without thinking about anything else, leading to the fact that you can’t do anything other than hold children now."
"Oh wow, aren’t you capable, talking to your elders like that?"
"Exactly. Since you’re an elder, I bothered to say a few words to you, otherwise I never talk, I just take action with outsiders." Ye Ning said with a smile.
The woman in front of her looked even grimmer, staring in shock at the audacious woman.
Does she really dare to speak to her this way just because Mu Yeli favors her?
That really is too much trouble for Mu Yeli, isn’t it?
Ye Ning looked at her, "I think, since I have the ability to hire professionals to help educate my child, I don’t have to do things that aren’t necessary for me to do. The reason humanity develops robots is to free our hands. This is evolution, understand? Just as when we stopped putting all our limbs on the ground, we freed our hands and evolved from ape species to humans."
"Are you saying I’m unevolved?"
Even though their thoughts were still stuck in trivial family matters, she understood those words.
Ye Ning smiled and said, "It’s good you understand because if you didn’t, there’s nothing I could do to help."
"You, you, you..."
"As a mother, I love my child within my capability, creating a good family environment for them, a world full of love, and that’s enough. There’s no absolute rule in education, and love doesn’t have one either. You don’t have to do certain things to love them. Everyone expresses love differently. If you can let your child feel your love, that’s enough. Frankly, I hate those mandatory rules where mothers must achieve certain things, as if every kid were a robot growing up the same. That’s not love, it’s molding, just like creating a robot. And I am human, I don’t make robots."
Seeing Ye Ning’s assertive statement, the old woman was almost ready to puke blood from anger.
She trembled as she pointed at Ye Ning, "You, you, you, are saying I’m not human... Oh my, I’ve never seen a woman who speaks like you, you get out of my..."
At this moment.
Gong Ye came over from the back, smiling as he looked at the scene, "Oh dear, what’s going on here? Little junior sister, what’s happening with this person? What are they saying to you?"
