I became a farmer's wife, and the cruel and powerful officials forced me to give birth to a chi

Li Yujiao thought to herself, so what if you are on top? You won’t really do it, you are just rubbing it every time.

But as soon as she came to her senses, he kissed her lips again.

Then, another heat wave hit.

……

early morning.

Li Yujiao woke up and found that Jing Qishan was gone.

She got dressed and saw that the bed sheets were wet.

She couldn't help but curse in her heart: You bastard, you enjoyed yourself, but you left me to wash the sheets!

She took off the sheet and went to the well outside the yard to wash it.

She shared a well with the two neighboring courtyards.

Just as I drew a bucket of water and soaked the sheets in it, Du Lijuan came.

Du Lijuan was carrying a bucket. When she saw Li Yujiao, she asked, "Hey, are you washing the sheets?"

Li Yujiao smiled and said, "There are also clothes I changed out of last night."

Du Lijuan, however, stared at the bed sheet in her basin and smiled mysteriously.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Yujiao asked.

Du Lijuan said: "Did your husband come back last night? I heard it all from here, he was screaming so loudly!"

"..." Li Yujiao blushed, "Is there?"

Did she scream?

There seemed to be a few sounds.

Du Lijuan put the bucket next to the well and asked while pumping water: "How is it? Does your husband agree to take a concubine?"

Li Yujiao paused and said, "I disagree."

"It's strange that he would agree now. You are so young and beautiful, and your figure is so graceful. Which man wouldn't want to have you for a few years? Besides, you two don't have any children. When you have children and your figure has changed, it will be more likely for him to want to take a concubine. So I guess Xuan will be disappointed."

Li Yujiao asked: "After having a child, your figure changes. Will a man take a concubine?"

Du Lijuan said, "That depends on how well you recover. Madam Li in our house, her husband is the guard. She just gained weight after having a child. Her husband took a concubine when he went back last year. The concubine came and went back home when she got pregnant."

Li Yujiao exclaimed, a little surprised, "Didn't Madam Li say that her husband loves her very much?"

"Oh, it hurts, but you still have to take a concubine. A man's love can be divided into many parts. Unlike us women, once we set our eyes on a man, we will be devoted to him." Du Lijuan said while shaking her head.

Li Yujiao was silent for a moment and thought to herself: Then I must not be completely devoted to Jing Qishan.

Du Lijuan asked Li Yujiao again: "How old are you today? Are you eighteen?"

Li Yujiao said: "I think so."

"That's the perfect age to have a baby. You have to have one quickly while he still loves you. You have to have a son. Otherwise, if he gets tired of you in the future, you'll have a son to rely on."

Li Yujiao smiled.

Du Lijuan said this probably for her own good, but she didn't think having a child was a good way to tie a man down, nor did she think having a son would necessarily make him reliable.

The most reliable person in life is yourself.

……

"Li Yujiao, if you don't want me to take a concubine, then why are you spreading rumors all over the yard, saying that Xuan wants to marry your husband?"

The clothes had not been washed yet, but Chen Sanduo came over angrily to settle the score.

Li Yujiao was puzzled: "When did I spread rumors in the courtyard? Didn't you suggest that my husband take a concubine in public?"

"Yes, it was my suggestion, but you didn't let her do it. You said that Xuan was pestering you. Did you say these words?" Chen Sanduo gritted his teeth and looked very fierce.

Li Yujiao was still puzzled, "When did I say such a thing?"

"Who else is there? Xuan is now in the house and is about to hang herself. Are you two planning to take Xuan's life as well?"

Li Yujiao was so angry that she threw the sheet into the basin. "I don't know who said that, but if you hadn't provoked this matter in public, the Xuan family wouldn't have brought disgrace upon themselves!"

"You..." Chen Sanduo pointed at her angrily and said, "Okay, I'll go find Madam Song to judge the matter and see how you want to explain it!"

Chen Sanduo rushed into Mrs. Song's yard in a rage.

Mrs. Song had just gotten up and was being helped by her maid to wash and dress.

There are not many ladies in this mansion who have maids, and Mrs. Song is one of them.

"Mrs. Song, you don't know what kind of person Li Yujiao is. Not only does she not allow your husband to take a concubine, she also spreads rumors everywhere, saying that Xuan is shamelessly trying to get close to her husband. How is Xuan going to live in the future?

Madam Song, please go and have a look. Xuan is about to hang herself!"

Mrs. Song just raised her eyelids at first and was not nervous.

Those who really want to die will hang themselves secretly. There is no one who threatens to hang themselves. They just want to threaten others with death.

But after all, she is the one with the highest status in this house and the elder among all the ladies, so she should mediate.

"Okay, I'll go with you to take a look."

Mrs. Song followed Chen Sanduo to Xuan's courtyard, where several ladies were already trying to persuade Xuan.

"Jing Qishan is not a particularly remarkable person. He just made the first contribution in the last siege. But this is just one city that has been conquered. There is still one city to be conquered. It is not certain whether he can come back alive by then. Therefore, it is not a great thing to marry him as a concubine."

"Yes, when the war is over, I will ask my wife to find a good marriage for you. You are so young, there are many men in the army who want you. You can be my wife, let alone my concubine."

"It's just..."

At this time, someone discovered Mrs. Song and hurried over to pay her respects.

The other women in the room followed suit.

Mrs. Song saw that Xuan was crying so hard that her eyes were blurred with tears. There was a torn sheet beside the bed. She couldn't help but say, "Xuan, you are really confused. How long can we women who follow the army live? Maybe one day the enemy will attack and we will die.

Who among us doesn't hope to live a few more days? But you are so eager to die sooner. Are you worthy of your dead husband?"

Xuan didn't say anything, just kept wiping her tears.

Madam Song added, "Although taking a concubine is not a big deal, if it were somewhere else, it would just be a matter of carrying a sedan chair in through the back door, but the person you want to marry is Jing Qishan!"

Xuan's face turned red, and then she covered her face and cried.

Madam Song said: "Jing Qishan is a reckless person in the army. You have also seen the talent of his wife. The two who dared to sew up the wounded's stomach are not easy to deal with. Even if you marry them, you will suffer injustice.

If you ask me, you might as well wait for a year or two. Maybe Jing Qishan will get tired of the people around him and want someone new. Then you will have a chance!"

Xuan nodded while crying.

But after a while she shook her head and said, "I don't want to marry him anymore."

"Then live well and don't be impulsive and seek death. There are not many women in our house. If you die, wouldn't it be a bargain for those who look down on you?"

Xuan nodded again.

Aren’t those who look down on her Jing Qishan and Li Yujiao?

Seeing that the mediation was successful, Mrs. Song turned around and left with her maid.

Halfway through the journey, the maid beside her asked, "Madam, do you need me to tell you more about Li Yujiao and Jing Qishan?"

Mrs. Song shook her head and said, "No need for that. Now the people in the house are targeting Li Yujiao. I'm sure her future will be very difficult. It would be best if she can't live like this anymore and asks to leave on her own initiative."

If Li Yujiao left, Jing Qishan might not have the heart to fight in the military camp.

By then, even if he had made a contribution, he would not take Ding Qi's share.
