In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Hearing their conversation, Wenren Qichi said, "My lady, I will also be returning to court tomorrow. With me by your side, you can rest assured."

Hearing what Wenren Qichi said, Su Yueyao turned to look at him: "Are your injuries alright? Why don't you stay home and rest for a couple more days? Jing Shu, Pu An, and Gong Yang will accompany me to court. Given the current situation, I don't think anyone will be foolish enough to cause me trouble."

“My lady, my injuries are nothing to worry about. His Majesty has been urging you to attend court, so he must have encountered some difficult matters. I’m worried about leaving you alone.”

Before Su Yueyao could say anything more, Yang Qianxun spoke up: "My lady, let Qi Chi go to court. With one more person protecting you, we can feel more at ease."

“My lady, my injury is really nothing. I can attend court. What the lord said is right. Things in the court are unpredictable. His Majesty has been working hard these past few months to send the scholars who are preparing for the imperial examinations to various prefectures. It seems that things are not going very smoothly.”

"As for agriculture, the grain crops that the wife provided before were very productive. Many officials in other prefectures have submitted memorials requesting that Your Majesty give them some seeds."

"besides..."

Su Yueyao felt a headache coming on when she heard what Wenren Qichi said: "Stop...stop...Wenren, you haven't been to court lately, how do you know so much about the situation in the court!"

“My lady, if we didn’t know about the important affairs of the court, the Wenren family would have been swallowed up by other families long ago.”

"I suppose the lord and the others are aware of this, but they just haven't told you about these troublesome matters."

“My lady, tomorrow in court, you may submit a petition to abolish the law that men who are not married by the age of twenty-two must be conscripted into the army, and replace it with a payment of silver.”

"For the other more difficult problems, we will gradually come up with solutions for His Majesty."

“Ah Yao, Qi Chi is right. We have already written the memorial to abolish this regulation, but His Majesty can determine the specific amount of silver to be paid tomorrow.”

"Let's use this matter to divert the court's attention. Right now, the powerful families in the prefectures are competing with His Majesty. His Majesty is determined to seize real power in each prefecture, but he's unwilling to offer any more benefits, so things are at a stalemate."

“Qi Chi knows the court best, so A Yao can communicate with him more tomorrow,” Yang Qianxun said.

Seeing their determined expressions, Su Yueyao knew that Wenren Qichi would have to accompany her tomorrow, so she nodded in agreement.

Yang Qianxun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Su Yueyao had agreed, and handed her the document: "Ayao, take a look and see if there are any changes needed. If there are no problems, just make a copy."

Su Yueyao took the folded paper from Yang Qianxun, looked at it carefully, and wanted to add something to it. But when she realized she didn't have a pen, she stood up and said, "Let's go inside and talk. I have some thoughts I want to write down."

"it is good."

The four returned to the house, and Su Yueyao sat down at her desk, thought for a moment, and began to write.

After verifying the content, it was copied into the document.

Yang Qianxun and the other two stood quietly to the side without disturbing her, until Su Yueyao put down her pen.

“Ah Yao, your plan is quite good. It sets the specific amount to be paid based on the local tax situation, which can be considered as giving poor men a chance.”

"That's all I can think of. Ultimately, it depends on how much the man is pampered at home. If his parents like him and spoil him, they can scrape together any amount of money. If his parents don't like him, they won't give him any money, no matter how little they have," Su Yueyao said with a sigh.

“My wife is right. The reason I made this request was that I didn’t want to marry a woman I didn’t like because of my age. Especially nowadays, there are too many women who are spoiled and arrogant, and who don’t treat their husbands well after marriage,” Wenren Qichi said.

"It can only be said that the current era is indeed not very friendly to men, but there are still good women. Marriage is preordained by heaven, so let nature take its course!" Su Yueyao said.

The high status of women here is actually due to their scarcity. When there are more women than men, the era would probably be no different from ancient times in modern times.

Although she felt that the laws and regulations were unfair to men, she had no intention of changing anything. She would treat her husband well and would not interfere with other women, nor would she change the status of women for the sake of other men.

Yang Qianxun and the others didn't say anything more after hearing what Su Yueyao said, since they had married the best wives in Fengdu City.

They are so much better than other men; they should cherish such a good marriage.

After explaining the arrangements for tomorrow's morning court session to Xingchen, Yang Qianxun got up and left.

After the two left, Wenren Qichi hugged Su Yueyao tightly and said, "It's so good that my wife married you."

"You've only been married for two days, and you already know it's good to marry me? Aren't you afraid that later I'll treat you coldly, dislike you, or even bully you like other women do?"

"That's not a problem. Life is long, and my wife has many men to choose from. I only know that when I entered the house, my wife cared for me and cherished me. That's enough."

"Your expectations are too low. You need to have faith in your wife and believe that I would never treat you like that," Su Yueyao said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I trust my wife, and I only trust my wife."

"Does your injury still hurt? We have to attend court early tomorrow, and it's getting late, so let's get some rest." Su Yueyao nudged Wenren Qichi, who was hugging her.

"My lady, let me hold you for a while longer. Tomorrow, my lady has to attend the morning court session, so I won't be able to tease you anymore. After tomorrow, you'll have to spend time with other people."

Su Yueyao laughed when she heard Wenren Qichi's resentful tone: "Now I feel like I have too many suitors in my backyard."

"It's alright, there aren't many men, but I just can't understand why my wife can't accept being with other people! That way we can serve her more, and she can have more time."

“What do you mean I don’t accept being with other people? I…” Su Yueyao was halfway through her sentence when she suddenly realized what Wenren Qichi meant, and her face turned red.

"If you don't accept it, you just don't accept it. There's no need for so many whys."

"You're not allowed to say that again. I just won't accept it."

Wenren Qichi looked at Su Yueyao's slightly flushed face, smiled indulgently, and said in a tone that was both resigned and curious: "My wife, if you don't want to accept it, then you don't have to. But I'm curious, if you're just feeling awkward about us, then I'm sorry."

"But what about those two handsome young men? They are twins, so even the wife can't be with them?"

"No, of course not!" Su Yueyao said firmly, not wanting to discuss the topic with Wenren Qichi any further. She got out of his arms and went to the bathroom.

"I'm going to wash up, aren't you coming with me?"

A threesome? Don't even think about it. If she agrees, will they consider having her accept even more people later? That would be the death of her.
