Chapter 36: Chapter 36 - Her Wish [2]
Chapter 36 Her Wish [2], Part 1
Old General Mu pounded the table in anger . A corner of the table shattered . “Is she trying to tire you to death? Or wear you down? So that you won’t have any time to study martial arts or medicine?”
At these words, Zi You had a confident smile on her face . This smile was like bright fireworks in a night sky, gorgeous and dazzling . Even the study suddenly became bright and dazzling . “Grandfather, rest assured . She won’t tire me . I currently have a photographic memory . Whether it is books or objects, as long as I’ve seen them, I won’t forget . You know You’er’s martial arts progressed rapidly . Don’t you believe in your granddaughter’s abilities? It’s good that she wants to invite a teacher for me so I won’t have poor etiquette when I’m invited to big occasions in the future . I am now studying flower embroidery with ShiYun . If she [Wang Yiping] could get a good teacher for me, I’ll have to thank her .
“As for marriage, women can help the casualties of the army, in addition to medicine and martial arts . Other standards/norms women should have, I have too . If someone appreciates me and treats only me wholeheartedly, then I will marry . If he can’t appreciate me or give me his true heart, no matter how excellent he is, I don’t want .
“In this world, even if there this kind of true man and hero like grandfather or uncle, I would rather be alone my whole life . Grandfather, You’er doing this is not only to fulfill mother’s unfulfilled wish, but also to help her protect grandfather and uncle . You’er has a wish and that is to help mother gain honor and recognition . If I can accomplish meritorious deeds for the nation, who would dare laugh at mother for being a lowly barbarian and of unknown origins?” “You’er…” Old General Mu did not expect his young granddaughter to see things so clearly and long-term, with such high ambitions . He looked at Zi You excitedly and didn’t say anything for a long time .

Old General Mu did not tell Zi You’s aspirations to his oldest son [Zi You’s father], but he did tell them to his younger son and his wife . The three were happy and proud of her .

They were getting more and more disappointed towards MuYingRui and Wang Yiping . Today was the first time Zi You went out without adult supervision for a whole day . The two were not concerned and did not show concern . They didn’t even look at Zi You once since she came back awhile ago .
Mu YingYi’s two sons, seven-year-old Mu QingHeng and four-year-old Mu QingYuan, seeing jiejie [older sister, can be used to denote familiarity] return from the market, circled around her . Trying to curry favor, they said, “Jiejie, we saved you a moon cake . It’s very delicious . ”
Zi You took out the dough figures, wooden swords and wooden boat she bought at the market for the two rascals . She lovingly patted their little heads . She said to Née Liu, “Aunt, let Heng’er and Yuan’er follow me to learn martial arts . I know you don’t want them to follow grandfather and uncle’s military path . But martial arts can strengthen one’s body and willpower . Even if our Mu family’s descendants are only civil servants, they would still have the blood of soldiers and a strong iron physique . ”

Zi You’s words once again got Old General Mu excited . He looked proudly at his granddaughter and nodded approvingly . “You can say such words; you are worthy of being this old man’s granddaughter!”
Née Liu was always worried about her husband setting off on war campaigns . No matter what Mu YingYi said, she would not let her two sons learn martial arts . Now listening to Zi You’s words, she pondered for awhile and readily agreed . “Okay, aunt will listen to You’er . Aunt will support the things You’er believes in . ”
