Chapter 1393: They've completely forgotten the pain once the wound has healed.
...
As Su Yueyao and her companion were about to head to the dining hall, remembering that Elder Yao was also there, they asked with a smile, "Elder Yao, would you like to come with us?"
"Your Majesty, I still need to study the issues we just discussed, so I won't go. You and Yuan Yi can go together!"
Su Yueyao nodded and took Lu Yuanyi's hand as they walked towards the dining hall.
“Yuanyi, I was very touched by what you just said. If using some cooling medicines won’t affect my body, then I can use them. After this childbirth, apart from Yunsheng and Wenren having a second child in the future, and Yanxi being uncertain, I don’t plan to have any more children for you.”
“It hurts me to see you suffer,” Su Yueyao said calmly.
After listening to what Su Yueyao said, Lu Yuanyi remained silent for a long time, and the two silently headed towards the dining hall.
"My lady...we cannot guarantee that any medicine is harmless to the body, especially when you are healthy, so we will not use it. In the future, we will try our best to prevent you from encountering the fertility-enhancing fruit."
Hearing Lu Yuanyi's firm words, Su Yueyao smiled slightly and looked at him, their eyes meeting.
"Are you really that afraid of any damage to my body? Fertility-enhancing fruits are everywhere. If you don't want to get pregnant in the future, I think it will be difficult. You'll be living in fear for the next few decades."
"Even if we are afraid, we will not regret it. This time, our lord and the others have been infected. Not one of them resented the wife's sensitive body and her ability to conceive. They all directed their anger at Wenren."
“These past few days they have come to accept the fact that having a child will be a hardship.”
After listening, Su Yueyao sighed, "You guys!"
Suddenly, Su Yueyao thought of something and said, "Yuanyi, I suddenly thought of a question. Do you have any contraceptive pills for men?"
As soon as Su Yueyao finished speaking, Lu Yuanyi was stunned for a moment, stopped in his tracks, and looked at Su Yueyao with shock in his eyes.
Su Yueyao turned to look at Lu Yuanyi, her gaze carrying a hint of uncertainty: "Did I say something wrong?"
Lu Yuanyi snapped out of his daze: "My lady, please don't ask that question again. For hundreds of years now, not only has the birth rate of women been decreasing, but the birth rate of men has also been low. This is essentially due to problems with men's bodies. With the advent of the fertility-enhancing fruit, the chances of women giving birth to men have increased."
"But there are still fewer and fewer women."
"Therefore, there is no contraceptive drug for men in this world, because men are inherently flawed."
Su Yueyao's mind went blank. So the reason why the female pregnancy rate has always been so low is not due to women, but to men... What kind of magical world is this?
Does that mean she was worried that if drugs were developed to increase fertility, men wouldn't cherish women as much, and that pregnancy wouldn't happen at all?
Even if there are more women in the future, men won't be able to change their status, since reproduction still depends on them...
The low female birth rate is attributed to the physical limitations of men.
Looking at Su Yueyao's changing expression, Lu Yuanyi said in a very soft tone, "My lady, this fact has existed for hundreds of years, and all the people of the Phoenix Kingdom should know it."
Su Yueyao's heart skipped a beat, and she didn't know how to explain: "I..."
"It seems that the wife's parents did not tell her this. The wife should not ask other people in the future. She should be more careful."
Su Yueyao looked at Lu Yuanyi. His eyes were filled with tenderness, affection, doting, and a hint of worry, which made her heart tremble. She reached out and hugged him tightly around the waist.
"Yuanyi, there are some things I don't know how to explain, I..."
“My lady, there’s no need to say more. No matter why you don’t know these things, you will always be our lady, and we will not let anyone hurt you,” Lu Yuanyi interrupted Su Yueyao softly.
Upon hearing Lu Yuanyi's words, Su Yueyao's eyes welled up with tears, which instantly streamed down her face.
Lu Yuanyi felt the dampness on his neck and looked down at Su Yueyao. He immediately panicked and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
"My lady, I'm not saying this to make you cry. Don't cry. If others see this and think I'm bullying you, I'm finished, my lady..."
Su Yueyao burst out laughing at Lu Yuanyi's flustered appearance.
Lu Yuanyi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Su Yueyao smile, and continued:
“My lady, you don’t need to worry about us. If we really do get pregnant, having another child would be a good thing. Our mother and father have written us letter after letter, urging us to compete for your favor so that you can give us more children.”
Su Yueyao, whose topic had been changed, asked curiously, "Are they really pressuring you?"
"Yes! My lady, Uncle Xun and the others saw how miserable Haoxuan and Yan Xi were. Now they seem to have forgotten how miserable they were back then, and they even want them to beg you to add some more young ladies to the family."
"Offspring are fundamental to a large family, especially female offspring now. Marrying more men in the future will further solidify the family's power."
Su Yueyao fell silent after hearing this, only one thought echoing in her mind: "They've completely forgotten the pain once the wound has healed..."
"Alright! You can see for yourselves. We still have decades ahead of us. If you want children for the sake of your family, you can tell me, and I'll have them for you."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanyi's heart skipped a beat, and his body trembled. Although these were touching words, they gave him a headache and made him feel like he was about to ascend to heaven.
"My lady, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to the dining hall quickly. I'm starving, and you must be tired. I'll carry you there." After saying that, Lu Yanyi bent down, picked up Su Yueyao, and walked quickly towards the dining hall, not giving her a chance to speak again.
He didn't want to talk about having children; it was too heavy a topic. He didn't want to recall or experience that feeling of vomiting until he felt like he was going to die.
In the face of suffering, family and such are all insignificant; living a good life with one's wife is the only right thing to do.
The next two or three days.
Wenren's courtyard was in complete chaos. On the second day of her sleepless night, she reconciled with Wenren Qichi and used a special acupuncture technique to suppress her nausea for three or four hours a day.
But when Wumian faced off against Ye Xing and the other two, it was like a dramatic show unfolding every minute of every second.
Su Yueyao would always lie lazily on the recliner and watch quietly. Wenren Qichi, suppressing his reaction, would sit down beside her and feed her some fruit and snacks, keeping her company with a smile.
Wenren Qichi, who was prone to gagging, would silently sit not far away, covering his mouth and gagging.
That day, after using golden needles to seal Wenren Qichi's acupoints, Wumian immediately engaged Yexing in battle.
Wenren Qichi sat down next to Su Yueyao without any surprise, silently using a fan to shield her from the sun. Su Yueyao watched the two people playing around in front of her with a smile.
