She Live Streams Modern Life to Ancient People After Failing to Conquer the Emperor

Chapter 208

When the ancient people heard the Grandmother chatting happily with her Granddaughter, they were not cold towards her just because she was a girl.

Moreover, during yesterday's livestream, they learned that this couple had been married for many years but had only given birth to one daughter.

Five years!

Only one daughter in five years?

In ancient times, this would be called the end of the family line!

Yet this Mother-in-law never once mentioned that the couple should have more children.

This caused many women watching the livestream to quietly shed tears.

"Why are women in the future so fortunate? She gave birth to a daughter, aren't daughters supposed to be a financial burden? Why does even the Grandmother love her Granddaughter so much?"

"This woman must have saved many lives in her past life. How else could she encounter such a good husband and Mother-in-law?"

"Hmph, it's all fake. If the son and daughter-in-law weren't here, she'd probably sell the Granddaughter."

"Don't even mention it. My neighbor did exactly that - they had a daughter and immediately drowned her in the outhouse."

"Isn't that common? Daughters are a financial burden. If you have a son, the daughter becomes a playmate. If you can't have a son, then the daughter is seen as blocking the way for a son, so they often drown the daughters."

"Wait, I've noticed something. It seems the Mother-in-law doesn't live with them?"

As soon as this was said, all the ancient people widened their eyes in shock.

Especially the women, who all raised their heads to look at Gu Sang.

Indeed!

The Mother-in-law doesn't live with her son?

Seeing everyone's confusion, Gu Sang explained:

"Where we come from, about half of the families live separately from the husband's parents."

"After all, two generations often have different views, and living together can easily lead to conflicts. Occasional visits are more beneficial for maintaining good relationships."

Boom!

The ancient people were stunned as if struck by lightning.

Every sentence from Gu Sang made their minds reel.

Each statement seemed unfilial, to the point where they wanted to curse out loud.

People in the future seemed so heartless.

The ancient people couldn't accept this concept at all and immediately cried out: "What? Living separately? Sons are supposed to take care of their aging parents. What if the elderly fall ill at home? If something unfortunate happens, they could die without anyone knowing."

"Yes, people in your future are so cold-hearted. It's not easy for parents to raise you, and yet after you grow up and start your own family, you don't live with your parents. It's as if raising you was all for nothing."

"How foolish. It's good to have the Mother-in-law help take care of the children. Taking care of children on your own is more tiring. You future people seem clever, but you're actually quite stupid."

Gu Sang replied with a half-mocking smile: "You're really poking your noses into other people's business. In the future, everyone accepts this way of living."

"What's the point of you opposing it here? Besides, technology in the future is very advanced. We can install monitoring systems in the elderly's homes, buy them watches that monitor their health in real-time. If an elderly person's health deteriorates, the watch will immediately send an alert to their children's phones, and even automatically call for an ambulance."

"Of course, it's hard for you to imagine these things. You just need to remember one point: this is how life is in the future, and your opposition is futile."

"Oh, and for those worried about the Mother-in-law helping with childcare, there's no need to worry. If you have money, you can hire a Postpartum Care Worker. After giving birth, new mothers can even sign up for postpartum meal services."

"Even if you don't have money, the wife's own mother can come help take care of the child. In our future, mothers are generally very helpful."

The word "envious" had been worn out.

From Gu Sang's explanation, everyone could imagine how truly good future parents were to their children, how they really considered their children's needs.

The Father-in-law and Mother-in-law were open-minded, not interfering with the children's education or the young couple's affairs, and the daughter could even call her own mother to help.

How much good karma must one accumulate to live in such a family atmosphere?

At this moment, whether men or women, they all deeply felt how wonderful the future was.

Although their own parents were also good, parents often liked to interfere in their children's affairs, and the most common phrase parents used was, "No matter if you're a hundred years old or how old you are, you'll always be a child in my eyes."

This sounded touching at first, but they were already married, yet their parents still treated them like children, wanting to manage everything, leaving them with no privacy at all. This caused them considerable distress.

But those were their own parents, so they couldn't say anything and could only keep their frustrations bottled up inside.

It was only at this moment that they finally understood that their parents were interfering too much in their lives, that this was wrong, and that it was something they could directly bring up.

In Xuyang Palace.

The concubines looked at each other, speechless except for bitter smiles.

"Ah, the future, it's truly enviable."

"If one had such open-minded in-laws, even being a commoner would be quite nice."

"I rather envy the attitude of future parents towards their children. Treating boys and girls equally, how wonderful. And being able to see one's own birth mother..."

After ending the video call, the Beautiful Elder Sister saw Gu Sang sitting on the sofa lost in thought, and her face showed an apologetic expression.

Beautiful Elder Sister: "Gu Sang, I'm sorry, we talked for a bit too long. Come, let's eat."

The system blocked all of Gu Sang's actions and speech, so to others, it appeared as if Gu Sang was just lost in thought.

Hearing the Beautiful Elder Sister speak, Gu Sang quickly responded, and the system detected Gu Sang speaking to the outside world, so it immediately removed the barrier.

"Oh, alright."

After everyone sat at the table, the ancient people saw that even the child was allowed to eat at the table, which again made their eyes widen in surprise.

Aren't children not supposed to eat at the table?

Aren't women not supposed to eat at the table?

Then they remembered it was the future.

Oh, it's the future, so it's normal.

"Dad, Mother, let's eat. Mother, I'll give you my favorite chicken wing."

The little girl first gave her mother a cola-flavored chicken wing, then gave one to her father.

"Auntie, do you like chicken wings? I'll give you one."

The little girl first asked Gu Sang if she liked them before putting a chicken wing in her bowl.

"What a good girl." Gu Sang's heart melted.

This little girl was so soft, sweet, and well-behaved that she was absolutely adorable.

After the meal, the little girl voluntarily helped her mother clear the dishes, mumbling: "Mother, you chat with auntie. Dad and I can take care of this."

"Dad says you work hard at home all day, so you should rest well when you have the chance."

Even Gu Sang, an outsider, couldn't help but feel delighted hearing these words.

"You're so understanding, knowing that Mother works hard."

The little girl replied: "Dad says Mother gave up her job for this family, to take care of our home full-time."

"Mother went through a lot to give birth to me, suffered a lot. Mother worked so hard, when I grow up, I want to repay Mother properly. No, I want to treat Mother well right now."

"Mother, I love you."
