It is a man's nature to constantly conquer and spread his genes as much as possible.
Their enduring affection is also reflected in their months-long passion for each suitable member of the opposite sex, which is supported by scientific research.
Moreover, this was the Wu Dynasty, where wives and concubines were numerous.
A capable and ambitious man who stays with his wife who has shared his hardships, and who marries several concubines to continue the family line, without favoring his concubines over his wife, is a husband praised by everyone as a man of affection and loyalty.
Even the poorest, most vulgar men, if they had a few spare coins, could still indulge in womanizing and flirting.
The most disgusting thing is that wives are required to arrange for their husbands to take concubines.
Instead of painting a pie in the sky with the promise of "one love for life," it's better to see the bottom line directly and accept what you can accept.
Besides, even if you get divorced, you'll still get a pasture and a herd of cattle to keep you company. It doesn't sound bad.
"Marrying a wife is a man's business; it's none of the wife's business."
I don't know how many I can marry. Besides you, I haven't seen anyone better than you! If there's someone better than you, I might marry another.
Zhao Tingduo's face was still red from being pinched by Song Liyun, and she turned her head and said breathlessly.
He really didn't know how many wives he would marry.
But he knew that his first wife would be Song Liyun, his first child would be Song Liyun's, and he would give her the most fertile pasture.
As for his other wives... he would have to conquer even more pastures before he could marry them.
Song Liyun chuckled, her voice a little hoarse: "Better than me? More beautiful, younger and gentler than me."
If that's the case, then there's no need to continue the discussion.
Young girls are like flowers on the grassland, year after year, each one so beautiful.
"No, she's more interesting than you! Pretty girls are just pretty; you can see right through them, and they're all pretty much the same."
Zhao Tingduo turned her head and looked firmly at Song Liyun.
"It's hard to find someone more interesting than me; you'll probably never meet one in your entire life."
Song Liyun laughed again, a happy and carefree laugh, full of confidence.
In idol dramas set before the apocalypse, domineering CEOs often disliked female supporting characters who were carefully groomed by their families, possessed both talent and beauty, and whose family backgrounds matched their own.
They have to like those weird receptionists, female subordinates who dare to throw coffee in their faces, or young female employees who can't even walk properly and keep falling down in front of them.
Zhao Tingduo, born with a silver spoon in his mouth, had grown tired of docile female slaves and now preferred something more interesting.
That's fine too. I may lack many things, but I certainly don't lack "fun".
How long can love based solely on physical appearance last? Even if you grow old and lose your looks, you'll get tired of seeing each other every day after just a few months.
Youth fades quickly, but wisdom only increases with experience, just like Granny Qi.
If you have someone to protect you, own your own business, can legally raise your own children, and don't have to bother scheming against a group of women...
This kind of marriage would probably be desired by some people even before the end of the world.
"Since I will never meet anyone better in my life, I will only have you as my wife for the rest of my life."
An interesting soul!
Zhao Tingduo looked straight at Song Liyun. Having said this, he understood his own feelings more and more clearly.
Song Liyun was like a treasure mountain; every time he got close, there was something that made his heart flutter and filled him with wonder, even her flirting with him.
Such a woman is a unique treasure.
In Hecheng, both his father and elder brother had given him beautiful maids, and even the Crown Prince arranged for palace maids to serve him in bed.
He refused them all.
These women were all gentle and beautiful, but in his eyes they were just pretty silhouettes, and he couldn't muster any interest in them.
If he wanted to be beautiful, he could bring his own mirror to look at himself anytime, anywhere; the only thing he could remember was Song Liyun's lively face with her bright eyes and brows.
"What did you say? A lifetime is too long, young man. Don't speak too soon. You'll regret it if you can't keep your promise later."
This was the first time Song Liyun had ever heard such cheesy pickup lines, and she blushed and her heart raced.
A lifelong, monogamous relationship is a dream; no matter how much you think about it, you'll still dream about it.
Called "young man" by Song Liyun, Zhao Tingduo's face turned even redder, her eyes sparkling, and she grabbed Song Liyun's hand and pressed it to her chest.
"You touch it!"
With deep affection in her eyes, Zhao Tingduo said, "It's empty inside now. My heart is all with you. When you return it to me, it can start beating for someone else."
Song Liyun froze, her eyes glazed over, feeling as if her very soul was being drawn to a face less than a foot away from her.
A young man's affection is like light and lightning, like a dream and an illusion, truly striking straight to the heart.
Two little figures began to fight fiercely in Song Liyun's mind:
"It's fake, it's fake, these are all lies."
"Really, really, look how focused he is when he speaks; these are all heartfelt calls from the depths of his soul!"
"Don't believe him, don't believe him, he'll change!"
"Don't move, don't move, he's about to kiss you!"
Sensing Zhao Tingduo getting closer, Song Liyun closed her eyes, her mind filled with only one thought: if he dared to kiss her deeply, she would electrocute him.
The wind on the grassland was like endless silk, wrapping around the two of them in circles!
Just then, Yuquan rode over on horseback, calling out from afar, "Young Master, Sister Song, Granny wants you to go back!"
Zhao Tingduo and Song Liyun, who were already embracing, instantly panicked...
The camp here is a temporary structure, with twenty herders raising a hundred sheep.
The snow-white felt tent that Song Liyun saw was specially prepared, and it is now inhabited by Song Liyun, Granny Qi, and Yuquan.
The herders usually stayed in the sheepfold, but now that the young master had arrived, they naturally set up a small tent.
We stayed at the mouth of the Huangsha River Valley for five days.
During the day, Song Liyun rode horses and leisurely herded livestock on the grassland with Zhao Tingduo. At night, she would sit by the fire in the yurt and chat, and also learn to draw cashmere yarn from Yuquan and Granny Qi.
This thread is the raw material for making carpets.
Song Liyun's eyes sparkled as she watched.
Besides weaving carpets, this thread can also be used to make other everyday items, but she couldn't go into details right now, so she asked for a bundle of thread.
Life on the grasslands is monotonous and arduous.
But Song Liyun seemed to have enjoyed a golden week, not only having Yuquan to play with her, but also being able to watch equestrian performances every day.
The chrysanthemum horse has been sent back to the tribe. It is said that the horse has not been allowed to run freely since it was injured and is almost ruined. It needs to be recuperated on the grassland for a while, and another horse will be sent over.
Zhao Tingduo's horses were always kept at the mouth of the Huangsha River, and they were so fierce and beautiful that they seemed otherworldly.
Fierce, wild, willful, dashing, handsome, elegant, debonair, mighty—no word is too much to describe it.
Just like the owner on its back at this moment.
Zhao Tingduo rode on horseback, her figure agile and her movements free.
The horse's mane fluttered in the wind, dust billowed behind it, and its powerful hooves slammed heavily on the ground as it galloped like the wind across the boundless plains.
So handsome!
Both the man and the horse are handsome!
Song Liyun was captivated by his unrestrained charm!
