Chapter 545: Yang Ou's Problem

Chen Hong arrived, and Yang Qing had already made things clear with Qiu Degan.

So when Chen Hong came, Qiu Degan took his leave.

After Yang Qing saw Qiu Degan off, he looked at Chen Hong, who had empty hands.

"What's wrong? You look upset—who made you angry?"

Yang Qing said, reaching out to smooth her brow.

"It's nothing but that dead girl Yang Ou."

"Doing anything else would be fine, but she became an actress."

"You say, which wealthy family's daughter goes to act— isn't that disgracing the Yang Family?"

While talking about Yang Ou, she was actually blaming Yang Qing for agreeing to let his daughter become an actress.

These years of life have already changed Chen Hong's mindset.

Notions of rank have also arisen.

Thinking of the old Huo family, they married an athlete.

Yang Qing felt a surge of emotion.

Truly far-sighted people also have broad minds.

It looks like they married a Guo heroine, but it's actually a fusion of aristocracy and commoners.

Because of this choice, the old Huo family, after Old Huo passed, still maintained an unmatched status.

Why? Because the Huo family never detached from the masses.

Why is Li Changjiang scolded like a dog? Because he became Li Half City, became aristocratic, yet remained a merchant who only cares about money.

Naturally, he became a type of person disliked from top to bottom.

Yang Qing also plans to take this road, striving to promote upper‑lower integration.

Moreover, the Yang Family needs this kind of integration.

Only through this integration can the Yang Family avoid detaching from the masses and become ignorant of the hardships of the lower classes.

If they don't integrate with ordinary people, they must personally experience ordinary life.

This should be written into the family precepts.

So Yang Qing does not restrict Yang Ou from doing any work.

"She doesn't like studying—what do you suggest?"

He threw the problem to Chen Hong; if it could be changed, they would have changed it long ago.

How could a person possibly change completely to your liking?

Chen Hong is also a muggle.

"But you can't just let her follow her nature."

Yang Qing brought up another reason.

"Look, her grades have improved."

"If you don't agree, her grades are trash, and she's mischievous at school, always leading a gang of girls to chase and beat boys."

"She's almost become a little temptress."

"Do you want her to keep drifting, or send her to the Eternal Splendor training class to learn something?"

Chen Hong fell silent.

Thinking of Yang Ou gives her a headache; she has no way unless she watches and beats her every day.

"Then you can't just watch her lack ambition."

"What will she do in the future—will you support her?"

Yang Qing shook his head.

"Is your understanding wrong?"

"What does 'lacking ambition' mean? She's clearly studying hard now."

"And how could a living person need me to support her?"

"With our family's resources, if she still needs me to support her, she might as well find a piece of tofu and kill herself."

"Daughter‑in‑law, don't always think your daughter is good for nothing—I tell you, the more mischievous a child, the higher their emotional intelligence."

"Otherwise she wouldn't be able to become the big sister in every school, leading a gang of girls to make boys flee with their heads covered."

"Now, in the schools she's attended, the boys are all honest."

"Daughter‑in‑law, you don't even look at yourself—you say you're so capable our daughter could easily..."

"You should give her a chance to turn her abilities into a career."

"I think Eternal Splendor isn't bad—maybe she can really achieve something."

"Whether she acts or directs, she won't lack money."

"You know how much Mao Ying earns."

After Yang Qing said this, Chen Hong's mind relaxed a lot.

Her worries also lessened.

"Let her go film?"

"I feel uneasy."

"Will others look down on her later?"

She still held the idea of marrying her into a good family; Yang Qing thought he could use this chance to share his thoughts.

"Daughter‑in‑law, you say, on our journey here, who have we clung to?"

Chen Hong shook her head—there really was none; Yang Qing basically grew up by his own strength.

Although she had relied on her father-in-law's influence, his is actually her husband's—what's the problem?

Moreover, she knows that even without her father-in-law's help, her husband can still make a name for himself.

"No."

Yang Qing nodded.

"That's right. Since we don't need to rely on anyone, why should we care who we marry into?"

"No need."

"Then, regarding who our daughter wants to be with, should we care?"

"No need."

"To be honest, I'd rather she find someone from the lower classes."

"We both came from hardship; I don't want our descendants to be high and mighty, unaware of human suffering."

"If that's the case, I'd rather not have them; our wealth certainly shouldn't be left to them."

"Because once they detach from the masses, they will become true exploiters."

"I hate such people the most; our whole nation despises them."

"I don't want us to aid a tyrant in doing evil."

Yang Qing's words awakened the faith Chen Hong had kept hidden in her heart.

She pities her daughter, so she only wants what's best for her.

Unbeknownst to her, she had actually become the very person she once hated.

Yang Qing saw her thought and comforted her.

"A mother thinking long-term for her daughter is not wrong."

"Besides, our daughter has her own judgment."

"We must believe she can handle these matters herself; we only need to tell her how to solve problems, and help and support her when she faces problems she cannot solve."

"Don't fear mistakes; our family has made countless mistakes yet still has opportunity."

"As long as she doesn't do something that angers both gods and men, she will always be our child."

Yang Qing's words made Chen Hong feel ashamed of her shallow understanding.

"Yeah, what's the point of a family like theirs thinking so much?"

"Their children are at the top of countless people from the moment they are born."

"Even if life gets worse, how much worse could it get?"

"When did I become so dissatisfied?"

"I……"

"I, I'm sorry, I overthought……"

Yang Qing hugged her and began to divert her attention.

"Let me tell you, we'll soon have our own TV station."

"If she doesn't act, Yang Ou can still be a host, manager, agent……"

"In short, as long as she studies hard, she'll have countless jobs to do."

Then Yang Qing gave her another surprise.

"I plan to film a TV series called 'Supreme Ultimate Master' and shoot on location at Chen Family Gully—what do you think?"

"Besides, we can also go see the mother-in-law."

Chen Hong exclaimed delightedly: "Great, wonderful!"

Yang Qing showed a troubled expression.

"But the editors in Gangdao lack material for Beifang martial arts stories."

"Daughter-in-law, why don't you go help out?"

"By the way, let her also learn about Eternal Splendor."

Chen Hong felt that promoting Supreme Ultimate was her duty, and she never thought Yang Qing wanted her to learn about Eternal Splendor.

"As for actors, Chen Hong doesn't care; she only cares about her daughter, not herself."
