Liu Fugui laughed and said, "I don't expect him to be as capable as you. I just want him to be a steady, hard worker. To be honest, I'm not a man of great ability myself, so I'm in no position to complain that my son isn't ambitious enough."
Qingmu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Dad, listen to you. It's not like anyone here has some grand abilities. We're all just farmers; our lives aren't that different from one another. If you have no ability, then how did Yunlan turn out so capable? Yungen is just young, and we never gave him any real responsibilities before. Now that Yunlan is married, he's lost his pillar of support, so he'll naturally start applying himself. In a couple of years, he'll surely make something of himself!"
Liu Fugui was pleased to hear this and nodded repeatedly, once again telling his son he needed to strive to do well.
