Chapter 520 - 516 The Reason for Disliking Daughter
Lu Tianxing looked deeply into Bai Zhiqing’s eyes, sighed and said, "Ah, my dear, you’re still too young. Having a daughter is too dangerous; it’s better to have a son."
"Why?" Bai Zhiqing was curious. She really wanted to hear what Lu Tianxing could come up with.
"My dear, think about it. If we have a daughter, you’ll nurture a tender, succulent cabbage for over twenty years, only for it to be dug up one day by some pig that was raised by someone else for over twenty years. Would that make you feel good? It’s too heartbreaking. With a son, you wouldn’t have to worry so much, plus you wouldn’t have to be scared out of your wits every day over a daughter."
Lu Tianxing sighed deeply and said, "Having a daughter means worrying about her schooling; during elementary school, you worry whether there might be a beastly principal, in middle school, whether there are beastly teachers, in high school, you worry about beastly classmates, and in college, you fear beastly professors and seniors. When she starts working, you’d worry whether there are beastly leaders. My dear, think about how vexing all that would be."
"Moreover, my dear, you’re so beautiful and, adding my excellent genes, our daughter would definitely be super cute, far surpassing those adorable little lolis online. Then think about all the gross big guys and creepy uncles that would come out. Imagine how much worry it would take to raise our daughter."
"On the other hand, having a son is so much easier. You don’t have to worry about anything. If there’s a cabbage to be dug, it would be someone else’s, the worry would be theirs, and all we’d need to worry about is whether he’d grow up to be a beast. My dear, isn’t that right?"
Bai Zhiqing looked speechlessly at Lu Tianxing, who spoke so smugly. It was the first time she realized how talkative Lu Tianxing could be, how he could argue black is white. If subtitles could be added to Bai Zhiqing right then, it would definitely read: You make it sound so reasonable, I’m speechless.
"My dear, now you know why I don’t like the idea of having a daughter!"
"You... that’s a twisted logic."
"What do you mean twisted logic? This is a treasure trove of experience summed up by countless predecessors, worthy of our deepest consideration," Lu Tianxing said earnestly.
Bai Zhiqing snorted coldly and said, "Either way, what you’re saying is twisted logic. I’m telling you, I want to have a daughter in the future. A daughter is a mother’s little cotton-padded jacket, unlike boys who are tough as nails. Besides, what if he grows up to be like you, then the whole society would be in trouble."
