Chapter 614 Underestimating This Future Elder Sister-in-Law
The next morning at dawn, ngyu went for a run, which was actually a trip to practice her martial arts in the woods behind the village. When she returned, she brought back two wild hares, each weighing about seven or eight pounds.
Madam Gu saw ngyu returning from outside early in the morning and thought she was just exercising like her son; little did she know, ngyu handed over the two wild hares she brought back: “Madam, I encountered these in the woods during my run this morning, we’re in for a treat today.”
Gu Minxing had just gotten up, and as soon as she saw the wild hares in ngyu’s hands, she imdiately brightened: “ngyu, you managed to catch wild hares just from morning runs. How did you do it?”
ngyu glanced at Madam Gu and said with a smile: “At that ti, I happened to have two coins in my hand.”
Gu Minxing exclaid: “Wow, you caught wild hares with coins, ngyu you’re so amazing. If only I were as capable as you. Yesterday—”
When she ntioned yesterday, her mood imdiately turned somber: “If I had been capable, I wouldn’t have been taken advantage of like that.”
ngyu looked at Gu Minxing, then at Madam Gu, and said: “My skills are nothing compared to your brother’s. He’s so formidable; if you could learn just a few moves from him, you wouldn’t need to be afraid of bad guys.”
“But—” Gu Minxing glanced at Mom and said: “But a girl involved in fighting and killing, no one would dare to marry her later on.”
ngyu laughed: “Once you’ve learned the skills, who says you have to show off? Look at , those two bad guys yesterday couldn’t even defeat , otherwise, I wouldn’t have dared to save you, right? But if it weren’t for yesterday, would you have known that I practice martial arts?”
Gu Minxing nodded: “Yeah, if it wasn’t for yesterday, I wouldn’t have known that you practice martial arts. It’s all thanks to your martial arts that yesterday, not to ntion rescuing , you might have been captured and sold along with .”
ngyu crouched to add so firewood to the stove: “You’re right. Without skills, soone sold can’t make it back. With skills, even if one is temporarily overlooked and sold, once they co to their senses, they can fight off the human trafficker and run back.
Besides, even after you get married, if you have skills, neither your husband nor your mother-in-law would dare to bully you, right? We don’t bully others, but we also can’t let others bully us.
Therefore, now is not the era where a woman without talent is virtuous; we, as won, must also have the ability to protect ourselves.”
ngyu’s words seed to be for Gu Minxing, but in fact, they were intended for Madam Gu to hear.
In truth, ever since Gu Minxing was almost tricked and abducted, she had begun to regret not having her daughter learn a few martial arts moves from her son.
A woman should be gentle and virtuous; it’s indeed hard for a daughter skilled in martial arts to find a good marriage match.
But after listening to ngyu and Gu Minxing, Madam Gu also felt that she had been shortsighted.
ngyu was right; learning skills didn’t necessarily an showing off to everyone.
Just like ngyu, who appeared soft and adorable on the surface, who would have thought she was proficient in martial arts?
Gu Minxing, sneaking peeks at Madam Gu’s expression and seeing no displeasure, imdiately went fawningly to her side to help her massage her shoulders: “Mom, I want to learn martial arts from ngyu.”
Madam Gu couldn’t help but laugh and cry: “If you want to learn, then learn; who are you putting on this act for?”
Gu Minxing rejoiced: “Naturally, for my most beloved Mom. Thank you, Mom! Then when ngyu heads back to the county town tomorrow, I’ll go with her. While the holidays last, I want to learn martial arts well.”
Thus, when ngyu returned to the county town, she had an extra person following her—Gu Minxing.
Thus, there was an additional permanent resident in the Dragon Head Ridge compound.
Only after integrating into the small community at Dragon Head Ridge did Gu Minxing realize how much she had underestimated this future elder sister-in-law.
