Chapter 138 He can't have sex, it doesn't matter.
"Someone we know?" Ye Mingzhu asked. "When did we meet someone like this..."
At this point, her almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened, and she looked at Ruixiang questioningly.
Obviously, he remembered.
“Yes!” Ruixiang nodded. “It was the time when you, Madam, were nearly killed when Zhang Shuheng caused you to fall into the water. The one who saved you was a cheerful farm girl.”
"I only glanced at them from afar and I'm not sure if they are the same person. Perhaps they just look alike, who knows?"
Ye Mingzhu's eyes turned serious, and she decisively instructed Yanzhi: "Try to contact that young lady as soon as possible. I want to meet her."
She would try to persuade any ordinary woman to think carefully about whether she really wanted to jump into the Sheng family's fiery pit.
Moreover, he was her savior.
A couple of points must be pointed out.
"Yes," Yanzhi replied immediately.
...
Dingxianglou.
In a private room on the second floor, Ye Mingzhu sat opposite a woman dressed in simple clothes.
Ye Mingzhu sized up the woman opposite her.
Her face, without makeup, was delicate and elegant, but not in a pale and melancholic way. Instead, it was healthy with a rosy glow, exuding a vibrant life force that reminded people of the forsythia blooming on the wall in early spring.
The woman's eyes were clear and firm, letting Ye Mingzhu know that whatever choices she made were based on her own heart and that she had a clear plan.
After exchanging names, she was startled, suddenly recalling a storybook she had read in the storybook space, which she had even written down on paper: "The Lucky Little Wife of a Farmer: Your Excellency, Please Be Gentle".
Is Huang Xiangyu, the woman before me, the heroine from the storybook?
Really?
In the storybook, Huang Xiangyu is a lonely soul from another world who accidentally transmigrates into the body of a young woman who drowned in the water, becoming an ancient person and starting a new life.
Because she was out of step with the times, she had no interest in marriage. She unexpectedly picked up a handsome amnesiac man and, to save trouble, took him in as her son-in-law, silencing the gossip from her family and neighbors who were urging her to get married.
But after two years of marriage, she gradually fell in love with her husband who had moved in with her family.
But who knew that after she fell in love with him, this son-in-law suddenly regained his memory and directly denied all the previous affection and even kindness.
Knowing that he was from a prominent family in Yanjing, the son-in-law left without saying goodbye, treating Huang Xiangyu, a country woman, as a stain on his reputation, and returned to the capital to marry another noblewoman.
Unwilling to accept this, Huang Xiangyu traveled to Yanjing City and her son-in-law's home, determined to get an answer.
She visited them repeatedly, only to be injured and humiliated each time.
But she did not give up. With a few rare prescriptions and her exceptional business acumen, she became a world-renowned female tycoon. When her husband's wife, whom he had married later, encountered trouble, she generously helped her. In the end, her actions moved heaven and earth, and they achieved a "perfect" ending where two women shared one husband.
...Looking at Huang Xiangyu's current state, Ye Mingzhu really couldn't imagine that such a clear-eyed woman would be so foolish as to be loyal to a man who abandoned her and even agree to be his concubine.
Why?
That's very strange.
But since they weren't very familiar with each other yet, Ye Mingzhu didn't want to ask too many questions and could only put her doubts aside for the time being.
"I was fortunate enough to be rescued by Miss Huang when I fell into the water, otherwise I would have been unharmed." Ye Mingzhu raised her wine glass. "This glass of plum wine is for you."
"Lady of the Duke of Wei, you can just call me by my name," Huang Xiangyu said with a smile.
"I apologize for asking you to come here," Ye Mingzhu said. "I mainly wanted to ask if there's anything I can help you with. If there's anything I can do to help, please don't hesitate to ask. Although talking about money with you is really vulgar, I have more than enough here. If you need anything, just say the word. Sheng Huai'an... is really not a good match."
"I know all that." Huang Xiangyu looked at Ye Mingzhu carefully and said with a smile, "I am just a peasant woman. The Duchess of Weiguo does not need to use honorifics with me. Just call me by my name."
Ye Mingzhu smiled and said, "Then you don't need to call me the Duchess of Wei. We are about the same age, so you can just call me Mingzhu."
Huang Xiangyu's smile became even more sincere as she nodded and said, "I know what you're worried about, but actually, the man I want to marry is Sheng Huai'an, who is impotent."
"Why?" Ye Mingzhu asked.
Huang Xiangyu said, "It is too difficult for women to survive in this world. If they don't get married, they will be gossiped about and constantly talked about."
“I was thinking of establishing a household with women, but I found that it was even more difficult. Either all the men in the family died before the woman got married, or all the men in the husband’s family died after the woman got married. Otherwise, it was impossible.”
"How can an individual resist an era? I have felt melancholy, but I can only go with the flow."
"I need a man who will allow me to live more freely in this world and do what I want. I don't really care about his sexuality or his family background."
"What do you value?" Ye Mingzhu asked again, but she already had some guesses in her mind.
Huang Xiangyu laughed heartily and said cheerfully, "What I value is whether he can be used by me."
Ye Mingzhu's suspicions were confirmed.
To Huang Xiangyu, Sheng Huai'an was merely an object. Like a pair of scissors or a silver needle, as long as it was useful to her, that was enough.
It's impossible to develop feelings for an object.
Without feelings, one wouldn't be heartbroken because of Sheng Huai'an.
Is this the soul from another world? Ye Mingzhu looked into Huang Xiangyu's bright eyes and saw a spirit and energy in her that was different from that of this world.
But she was even more confused...
Since you can't figure it out, you might as well ask.
Before meeting Huang Xiangyu, she was familiar with Huang Xiangyu's situation and knew that she had not yet met that amnesiac young master from a prominent family, let alone taken him as her son-in-law and developed feelings for him.
Ye Mingzhu briefly explained the contents of the storybook to Huang Xiangyu and asked, "If it were you, would you love a man as devotedly as the heroine in the storybook?"
Huang Xiangyu replied decisively, "Of course not, I love myself the most."
"If you made the same choice as the female lead, why do you think it would be?" Ye Mingzhu asked.
Huang Xiangyu's eyes held a strange look.
Seeing Ye Mingzhu's seriousness, she began to think about Ye Mingzhu's question.
