Chapter 208 No worldly prejudice
Su Yue couldn't help but click her tongue. After hesitating for a moment, she asked a little embarrassedly, "Then... can you... favor me?"
Bai Jingwen shook her head nonchalantly and said lightly, "I'll go to whoever I like."
If you don’t like it, just put it aside. It doesn’t matter if you don’t go there for a few months.”
After hearing this, Su Yue secretly sighed in her heart that it was really inappropriate to treat her relationship and husband in this way.
Bai Jingwen asked Su Yue expectantly, "Yueyue, how many children do you have now?"
Su Yue replied calmly: "Two daughters and one son."
Upon hearing this answer, Bai Jingwen stood up excitedly, her eyes wide open as she looked at Su Yue in disbelief: "What? You've only been married for over a year and already have two daughters and a son?"
Su Yue nodded blankly, not yet realizing why Bai Jingwen was so excited.
Bai Jingwen excitedly hugged Su Yue's arm, her voice rising a few degrees: "Yueyue, do you have any secret recipes for conceiving a girl? Tell me quickly!"
Su Yue shook her head in confusion: "There really is no special remedy, it all depends on nature."
Bai Jingwen sighed in disappointment after hearing this and complained with a sad face: "I have 28 husbands, but only six sons and no daughters.
You have seven husbands and only have two daughters and one son. What use do I have to them? They are a bunch of useless people! "
Su Yue gently patted Bai Jingwen's hand: "How can we blame our husbands entirely for having children? Maybe it's just that fate hasn't arrived yet."
Bai Jingwen was still angry and kept muttering.
Bai Jingwen looked at Su Yue with envy and said with emotion: "Yueyue, you are so lucky!
The husbands she married were all stunningly handsome and were good at giving birth to daughters.
You don't know, some people have to marry many husbands to have one or two daughters.
And not every husband can get pregnant.
That's why women are so precious in our Mingxi country.
Generally speaking, if a man has a daughter, he is honored by his daughter. Basically, as long as he does not do anything naughty,
He lived a smooth life for the rest of his life.
Unlike me, I have had many husbands, but none of them gave birth to a daughter. It's really depressing!"
Su Yue came here and rarely got to know these national conditions and customs in depth.
She is busy with business and preparing for the imperial examinations.
She is also busy taking care of her pregnant husband at home.
After hearing Bai Jingwen say this today, she was shocked to realize that there were too few women, so many women would marry multiple men at once.
Bai Jingwen continued to talk non-stop: "You don't know, generally speaking, families with poor conditions will marry more husbands.
The unfavored husbands were sent out to work and support the family, while the wife and the favored husbands stayed at home and enjoyed themselves."
Su Yue was shocked when he heard this, and his brows were furrowed.
His eyes showed disbelief and deep pity.
She never imagined that in this country, the fate of men would be so sad and helpless.
She couldn't help but think of her husbands at home. They were so gentle, kind and considerate. They loved her wholeheartedly and gave everything for this family.
Yet, under the general atmosphere of this society, so many men are forced to endure injustice and suffering.
Su Yue's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, so heavy that she could hardly breathe.
She spoke slowly: "But at least give them the dignity of living. They shouldn't be treated like this."
Bai Jingwen looked at Su Yue's heavy expression, shrugged and said, "What can we do about it? It's been like this for generations, and everyone is used to it."
Su Yue shook her head and said firmly: "But this doesn't mean it's right.
Everyone should have the right to choose how to live their life, regardless of gender."
Su Yue looked at Bai Jingwen's nonchalant expression and looked around.
Seeing the usual indifference on other people's faces, she felt a deep sense of powerlessness in her heart.
She clearly realized that it would be difficult for her to change the minds of the whole society by herself.
It is simply a pipe dream to change the so-called rules that have been deeply rooted and passed down.
She felt an unprecedented sense of frustration, as if she was tightly bound by an invisible net and could not break free no matter how hard she struggled.
Those cold looks and indifferent attitudes were like solid walls, blocking her impulse to change everything.
Su Yue also understood that although he could not change the entire world, he could at least protect his own little world.
She made up her mind to be better to her husbands.
Let them suffer less and enjoy more happiness in this difficult world.
Su Yue said goodbye to Bai Jingwen and got on the carriage with Liang Junze and Gu Qingyan.
As soon as they got in the car, Su Yue held their hands with a heavy heart, her eyes dull and she said nothing.
Seeing her like this, Gu Qingyan was worried and called Su Yue several times.
Su Yue seemed to be immersed in her own thoughts and did not respond.
It was not until Gu Qingyan raised his voice and gently shook her arm that Su Yue came back to her senses.
She looked up and saw the two of them looking worried. Su Yue forced a smile and said, "I was just too engrossed in my thoughts. How are you getting along with Shopkeeper Bai's husband? Are they giving you any trouble?"
Liang Junze hurriedly shook his head and held Su Yue's hand tightly: "Yuer, with you protecting us like this, how could they embarrass us?
But the more I go out with you, the more I feel how happy our life is now."
Su Yue looked at them with confusion.
Gu Qingyan said excitedly, "Yuer, you don't know that Shopkeeper Bai's husband feels that as long as they don't have to go out to work, they will be very happy.
They also kept bragging about how good their wives were to them, and Aze and I couldn't bear to criticize them when we listened to them.
Gu Qingyan paused and continued, "In their eyes, being able to stay at home peacefully and not be ordered to work hard outside is a great blessing.
Occasionally, the wife would buy them new clothes or bring back some delicious food, which would make them happy for a few days.
They even feel that being able to live like this is a blessing earned through several lifetimes.”
Liang Junze continued, “Yuer, the kindness you have shown us far exceeds what they have experienced.
We can go out freely, see the outside world with you, and participate in family affairs. In their view, this is simply unimaginable."
Su Yue couldn't help feeling sad when she heard what they said.
In this world, they are so easy to satisfy, and a little bit of care and respect can make them feel extremely happy.
What I can give them is actually just a tiny part compared to what they desire.
She was determined to give them a better life and let them know that happiness could have more possibilities.
When Su Yue returned home and just stepped into the yard, she saw Shen Yunyan drawing water from the well. He lifted the bucket with difficulty, and beads of sweat were already oozing from his forehead.
Shangguan Haomu was cooking in the kitchen and was coughing from the smoke.
Shangguan Haochen and Mu Feng are holding their children and talking to Lin Yuxuan
Su Yue stood there quietly, watching her husbands busying around, the love in her heart growing deeper like a tide.
As a soul from the modern era, she simply could not order her husband around, bully him, or even beat or scold him like other women from Mingxi Country.
She just wanted to give them more love and let them feel endless warmth and care in this world full of constraints and prejudices.
She longs to use her own strength to create a warm corner full of love and respect for them in this imperfect world.
In this corner, there is no worldly prejudice, no unfair treatment, only mutual understanding, trust and deep attachment.
