Chapter 30 The Art of Husband Taming
After searching for a long time without finding anything, Mingyue unknowingly wandered into the back kitchen.
The kitchen was steaming hot, and the aroma of various ingredients filled the air, making one's mouth water. Grandma Wang was busy cooking inside. Her face was smooth and showed no signs of age. She wore a kind smile, like a living Bodhisattva.
Mingyue walked quickly to Granny Wang's side, her eyes slightly red, her expression displeased, biting her lower lip with a wronged look, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, and gently tugged at Granny Wang's clothes.
"Grandma, have you seen Yuji?" Mingyue asked softly.
Granny Wang stopped what she was doing, turned around, and looked at Mingyue with a gentle gaze that could melt a person's heart, as if she could see right through her.
"What's wrong? Did that brat upset you?" Granny Wang asked with concern.
Upon hearing this, Mingyue's eyes reddened even more, and she said angrily, "Mother-in-law, do you know any techniques for controlling your husband? Can you teach me? I really want to win over that little mudfish. I don't even mind that he's engaged, but he just ran away."
"You seem to mind quite a bit?" Granny Wang looked at her with a smile.
"I just want to know if my junior brother has feelings for me. If he does, I don't mind that he's engaged; if not... he won't escape my grasp. But this kid is as slippery as an eel. I don't know what to do until he gives me a quick death. You have a lot of experience, could you share your advice with me?" Mingyue looked at Granny Wang expectantly.
Grandma Wang sighed softly, reached out her hand—a delicate, supple hand—and gently stroked Mingyue's face. She said earnestly, "Child, love and affection in this world are like ethereal clouds, so mysterious, intangible and invisible, yet most hurtful. What ready-made experience can be passed on? In the end, only a sincere heart matters. If love demands reciprocation, then it's not love anymore; it's merely a transaction in the name of love."
Love is something you can't force. Although you can strive for it, sometimes you have to learn to let go. Look at this world, how many people lose their way in deep affection, like headless lambs; and how many people, after experiencing it, grow like butterflies emerging from their cocoons.
Love is sometimes like a spring breeze, gently blowing by, bringing warmth and hope, making people happy; sometimes it is like winter frost, cold to the bone, making people heartbroken and full of sorrow.
But no matter what, it's an indispensable part of our lives. When you truly fall in love with someone, you'll find that your world unfolds like a magnificent painting because of them. You'll be as happy as a blooming flower for them, as sorrowful as a falling autumn leaf, and you'll give your all for them without complaint, as resolutely as a moth drawn to a flame.
Upon hearing Granny Wang's words, Mingyue felt a gentle breeze caress her heart, causing ripples to spread. Her previously furrowed brows gradually relaxed, as if she understood what she should do. A firm smile appeared on her lips, like a flower blooming in the sunlight.
“Grandma, I understand. There is no single answer to this question; everything depends on me.” Mingyue nodded firmly.
"Silly child, go through it bravely, just don't let yourself regret it." Grandma Wang looked at Mingyue with loving eyes, her gaze full of relief. She knew in her heart that the road of love was never smooth sailing, but only through experience could one truly grow.
Mingyue turned and left, her steps firm and powerful, her eyes filled with boundless anticipation for the future, as if she were going to a wonderful rendezvous.
Just after she left, a person suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the kitchen. "Yuxin, why did you instigate Mingyue to pursue that ridiculous love? What kind of bullshit love is that? It will only become an obstacle to her cultivation." The person was full of anger, but also a little confused, not understanding why Granny Wang would do such a thing.
Looking at his aged face, with a hint of stubbornness in his eyes, Granny Wang said softly, "Don't call me Yuxin... You have no idea what happiness a woman wants! And if you did, I wouldn't have waited all these years. Xianzi, I solemnly tell you, even so, I still don't regret sticking to your side back then."
Grandma Wang's heart was filled with unwavering devotion to love; she firmly believed that the power of love could overcome everything.
"I'm talking about the children, don't drag us into this. I certainly won't allow Mingyue to hinder Yuji's cultivation. Can personal feelings outweigh the safety of all living beings? You should know how important that child is." Xuan Kongzi's tone was firm, exuding an unquestionable authority.
