Seeing the puzzled looks of Xu Qiuju and Li Erhong, Tang Qiyue explained the difference to them.
After listening to Tang Qiyue's explanation, the two people suddenly understood.
There is such a big difference in feelings.
"From what I see, Captain Wang seems to want a divorce, but he has several children who need care. Plus, if he dares to abandon his wife at this moment, he probably won't get a promotion in his lifetime!"
Promotion in the military also requires personal style. Moreover, nowadays it is advocated that women can hold up half the sky, and giving birth to boys and girls is equal. If Captain Wang dares to despise girls, he will be in trouble.
Xu Qiuju, who is also a mother of several children, sighed: "If this woman can't give birth to a son, she will indeed be looked down upon!"
Li Erhong also nodded.
This is a concept they have been exposed to since childhood, and it cannot be changed by just a few words from Tang Qiyue.
"Sister Zhao has a miserable life too. Why hasn't she given birth to a son? I heard she tried a lot of folk remedies, including centipede and toad skins. She's suffered a lot!"
Li Erhong sighed, and Tang Qiyue was even more speechless.
"Men decide whether to have a boy or girl. Women have no way of deciding the gender of their children. All her suffering was in vain. Moreover, giving birth to children continuously will cause great harm to a woman's body!"
But as soon as she finished speaking, Xu Qiuju hurriedly pulled her aside and asked her to speak more quietly.
"My dear sister-in-law, please don't say that. Nowadays, people are encouraged to have more children. The title of heroic mother is awarded to mothers who have given birth to ten children. Please don't make trouble about this matter. Be careful of those with ulterior motives who use this as an excuse!"
Tang Qiyue: ...
The topic of fertility is still somewhat unfamiliar to her.
"But you and Battalion Commander Zhan have been married for a while now. Are you pregnant already?"
Xu Qiuju made faces, looking teasing.
But just as she finished speaking, she was stopped by Li Erhong next to her.
"Just stop talking!"
Li Erhong immediately said to Tang Qiyue, "Sister-in-law, don't listen to Qiuju's nonsense. You two don't necessarily need to have children, right? Battalion Commander Zhan is such a capable man, you can live well without children!"
Tang Qiyue: ...
Xu Qiuju was stunned.
Whose family doesn’t induce labor?
Why does Tang Qiyue have to say that it’s better not to have children?
Tang Qiyue knew why Li Erhong said that, but she didn't want to explain it to Xu Qiuju, so she agreed with her.
"That's right. I'm still young and there's no rush to have kids. I'll wait until later!"
Tang Qiyue gave an answer and Li Erhong agreed.
Only Xu Qiuju was completely confused.
"It's getting late, sister-in-law, you should get some rest early. We'll go back and pack up and go to bed!"
Li Erhong pulled Xu Qiuju out and helped Tang Qiyue close the courtyard door.
Tang Qiyue shook her head and laughed. She didn't expect that Li Erhong would be so considerate of her feelings.
She didn't pay attention to the outside world's concern about whether the couple would have children, but went to clean up the kitchen.
Li Erhong pulled Xu Qiuju out of the yard and walked quickly to Xu Qiuju's yard.
After they entered the house, Xu Qiuju pulled Li Erhong to sit down. "Sister Hong, you have to tell me why you said that just now? Could it be that my sister-in-law is infertile?"
Xu Qiuju didn't know about the rumors about Zhan Zeye, and her husband would never gossip about such things with his wife.
"You, you, why do you say anything? Do you know why Captain Zhan and Doctor Qin were so close before, but they didn't get married? Are you going to marry my sister-in-law?"
Li Erhong was afraid that Xu Qiuju would say something wrong again in the future, so she explained the whole story to her.
Although these are just rumors and not confirmed news, everyone says so. Li Erhong is not sure whether it is true or not, but she still has to say what she should say, so that Xu Qiuju won't say something wrong in the future and make Tang Qiyue unhappy.
After learning that Zhan Zeye was infertile and might not even be a man, Xu Qiuju covered her mouth in shock.
"Isn't this too unfair? This is bullying!"
No matter how Xu Qiuju fought for Tang Qiyue, they could not go to Zhan Zeye to argue for Tang Qiyue. They were just full of sympathy for Tang Qiyue.
"From now on, take your sister-in-law out for a chat more often, or she won't get sick from being alone!"
Living with a eunuch is such a hard life!
Li Erhong sighed.
They all have experience with married life and know that if a woman has never had sex, she can still bear it, but if she has, how can she bear it?
Thinking about the many men on the island, all of them with well-developed muscles, I wonder if Tang Qiuyue can control herself.
Not to mention how Li Erhong and Xu Qiuju sympathized with Tang Qiyue. When Zhan Zeye returned home in the evening, Tang Qiyue had already tidied herself up and was leaning against the head of the bed, continuing to read a book.
The room was as bright as day, which made Zhan Zeye a little uncomfortable.
"Old Wang said he'll bring his wife over tomorrow to thank you and treat you to a meal!"
Zhan Zeye took the book from Tang Qiyue's hand, his eyes asking what she meant.
Tang Qiyue wasn't angry either. She couldn't continue reading after returning home. She leaned against the headboard and said, "Thank you, forget it. Dinner is fine, but are you treating me?"
She saved people, so she could still afford a meal.
"Of course not, and I'll ask for help from the few who are helping me!"
Zhan Zeye pinched Tang Qiyue's cheek. He always felt that Tang Qiyue's face was more beautiful under the incandescent light, which made him unable to help but want to tease her more.
Tang Qiyue let Zhan Zeye do whatever he wanted, and a question occurred to her: "Given Sister Zhao's health, will she still cook for tomorrow's dinner? Does Captain Wang really not care about her life or death?"
For someone who has just attempted suicide, not to mention whether he can adjust mentally, his body won’t be able to bear it!
Zhan Zeye tutted his words, "What are you thinking? Sister Zheng and the others have already made peace and resolved the misunderstanding. Captain Wang has written a letter of guarantee that he won't force Sister Zhao to have a son anymore. Just let nature take its course!"
Will Sister Zhao be satisfied as long as she doesn't give birth to a son?
This conclusion made Tang Qiuyue feel sad.
"But from what Lao Wang said, it wasn't Sister Zhao who cooked, but a table was prepared in the cafeteria, and it was Uncle who helped to arrange it!"
Zhan Zeye was no longer satisfied with just pinching her cheeks, so he simply took off his shoes, got on the bed, and reached out to hug her in his arms.
Tang Qiyue looked at her watch. It was already eight o'clock, so it was indeed time to go to bed. She signaled Zhan Zeye to turn off the gas lamp.
Zhan Zeye raised his hand and turned the spring to extinguish the gas lamp, and the room instantly fell into darkness.
He lay down holding Tang Qiyue.
Tang Qiyue remembered Li Erhong and Xu Qiuju's reactions and touched Zhan Zeye's chest. "Do many people know that your injury has affected your descendants' roots?"
The rebellious hands suddenly quieted down, and Zhan Zeye's breathing became heavy.
"Can't you feel whether my descendants have been affected?"
