It stands to reason that it has been five years since Gu Xien's miscarriage, she has just turned twenty, and Yuan Pingzhi is only twenty-eight. The couple still have enough time to wait for their next child.

But Gu Xien didn't think so. Her pressure was getting heavier every year. She was sad about the first child she had lost unintentionally, and she was eager to have a new baby to heal the scars in her heart. However, the more eager she was, the less likely she was to get pregnant.

Although Yuan Pingzhi also likes children, he is not so eager, but he no longer knows how to comfort his overly worried wife.

Yanjing original mansion.

Many of the main buildings of the new Yuan Mansion have not yet been built. Only the Wengluo Pavilion where Yuan Pingzhi and his wife lived were built first.

Yuan Pingzhi loved purple wisteria very much and transplanted many of them here. The new yard is still called Wisteria Pavilion, which somewhat alleviated Gu Xien's homesickness.

It was the late spring afternoon, and everyone who had eaten lunch was lazily. Gu Xien sat on the swing under the purple wisteria trellis, looking up at the sky, which was bluer than in the south.

She held a letter in her hand, which was sent to her by Gu Jinghong. Along with the letter was a large package of medicinal herbs and a folk prescription, a folk prescription for the woman to take care of her body, which was said to be beneficial to fertility.

After all, Gu Jinghong was too embarrassed to talk about this kind of thing in detail, so he only vaguely stated in the letter that this was a folk remedy that Gu Xien's grandmother had specifically sought out to treat Princess Shengping's years of infertility. Many noble ladies in Jinling had taken it, and it was said to be very effective.

However, Gu Xien knew that her grandmother had found this. It was simply a folk remedy that her father had specially searched for for her, right?Unexpectedly, her infertility had even alarmed Jinling and her father.

So, my parents-in-law must have been paying attention to it for a long time, right?Back then, my grandparents rejected my mother because she was still pregnant. So will my parents-in-law reject me now?Would they want to take in a house, take in concubines, and arrange for a new person for their husband?

Gu Xien had a headache thinking about it, and every time she thought about it, she felt sad for the women in the world, sad for her mother, and sad for herself.

What is the meaning of their lives?Just to get married and have children?Once you can't have children, especially if you can't have a son, will you become a trash that is spurned by others?

Now Gu Xi'en even feels lucky that she and Yuan Pingzhi are staying in Yanjing. They are far away from such a large family in Yuan Mansion. She doesn't have to face her parents-in-law every day, and she doesn't have to face her sisters-in-law with their children. Even if her parents-in-law are dissatisfied with her and her sisters-in-law pity her, she can just ignore them.

Qiu Shui and Qiu Yue accompanied Gu Xi'en. Qiu Shui was already the mother of two boys, and Qiu Yue also had a daughter. Her maids who were dowry back then have now become independent ladies in charge, and they have all become mothers.

Now Gu Xien even envies her maid.

Seeing that Gu Xi'en had been in a daze, Qiu Shui was a little anxious and said, "Young madam, now you don't even bother to take medicine. It's not an option to drag it out like this, right? Husband and wife, what do you mean by husband and wife? Husband and wife, close relatives and distant relatives, this is what I have heard from the eldest princess before.Poetry!The couple is really close if they live in the same house and sleep on the same bed. But if they are estranged, they are really estranged. If they are not married, they are just two strangers. Without blood ties, they are far away, and there is no limit to it."

Gu Xi'en rolled her eyes at her and said, "You have improved over the years, and your reasoning makes sense."

Qiu Shui chuckled. After giving birth to two children, she has gained weight, gained weight, and has become more outspoken and aggressive. In her own words, she said: "When I was a girl, I was very shy. When I was a daughter-in-law, I was a little shy. When I became a mother-in-law, I didn't know what shame was at all."

Gu Xien sometimes couldn't stand her behavior and warned her that even as a wife and mother, she should pay attention to her appearance and image, but she didn't care at all and still strode towards the image of a vulgar mature woman.

Chapter 10(2)

Qiuyue said: "You are getting more and more verbose. Say what you have to say directly. Don't talk so much."

Qiushui let out a long sigh and said, "It's true, this servant is also worried about the young lady. The world is like this now. If a mistress does not have a son by her side, life will be difficult. Do you see which backyard is not like this? If a concubine gives birth to a son, then life will be in dire straits."

Qiuyue frowned and said, "Stop it and tell the important point!"

"The key point is that the young lady must give birth to a son as soon as possible! If you don't have a son, you can have a daughter first. It will bloom first and then bear fruit. Anyway, there is a child first. This child belongs to the couple. Calling your mother and his father. Calling father and mother can make the couple's hearts sweeter than honey. Isn't the bond of blood already there? Wouldn't the relationship be closer? The couple no longer need to spend their days boringly staring at each other." Qiu Shui advised earnestly.

Qiuyue pinched her, this guy who thought he was smart, his long talk was all nonsense, how could their lady not want a child?

The problem is that Gu Xien can't get pregnant, so that's what we call sadness and despair, right?Now Qiushui is adding fuel to the fire, you are really looking for death!

After listening to her words, Gu Xien was silent for a long time, but suddenly smiled with relief: Qiu Shui was right, she was talking about the common situation of couples in the world, but there are always exceptions to everything, right?

Over the years, Yuan Pingzhi has been persuading her to relax. Not to mention that they are still young and still have plenty of time to have children. Even if they really can no longer have children, they already have a son, Yuan Jiaming, so what are they worried about?

Yes, what are you worried about?

People are always too greedy, which makes them troubled endlessly.

After the sudden realization, Gu Xien suddenly let go of her heavy psychological burden. She stood up with a smile and said, "Let's go back to the house."

When Yuan Pingzhi returned home in the evening, he heard that his wife had not only stopped all the decoctions, but also had spent the past few years

The lady won't be irritated, right?

Isn't it because he has gone crazy?

Before falling asleep, Yuan Pingzhi carefully observed Gu Xien and was very curious when he saw her calm expression and happy expression, which was rare in the past two years.

He put his arms around Gu Xi'en and asked with a smile: "Madam, do you want to work hard tonight?"

In order to get Gu Xien pregnant, he had to fight almost every night. It was very hard. If he continued like this, he was worried that he would suffer from premature aging.

Gu Xien got into his arms and refused apologetically, saying, "No, my husband has worked hard all day and needs a good rest."

Yuan Pingzhi secretly breathed a long sigh of relief, finally able to relax.

[The impure description in this paragraph has been deleted, I am extremely sorry]

Yuan Pingzhi secretly thought, no wonder so many men look for extramarital affairs. Dealing with their wives can sometimes be really tiring both physically and mentally, making people want to escape.

"I heard that you stopped taking the decoction?" Yuan Pingzhi asked again.

"Yes." Gu Xi'en stretched her legs lazily, looking for a comfortable position in her husband's arms, and said, "I think about it, the imperial doctor said that my body has been recuperated and I don't need to take those messy folk remedies anymore. Instead of feeling uncomfortable, it's better to let nature take its course. For me, if you are destined to have a child, you will eventually have one, and there is no need to force yourself to have no child."

Yuan Pingzhi gently stroked her hair and asked, "Are you really thinking about it?"

"Really!" Gu Xi'en hugged him tightly and murmured, "I'm too willful to cause you to suffer too. Husband, I'm sorry."

"If you're sorry, just think about it. Only when you really think about it will you feel at ease." Yuan Pingzhi could feel the tranquility on Gu Xien's body, which was completely different from the anxiety in the past, which made him truly relieved.

It seemed that she really looked away.

Gu Xien took a deep breath and hesitated for a while before saying: "It's not that I didn't trust you before, but I was always worried that I would repeat my mother's tragedy. I couldn't help but think that if I couldn't give birth to a child, maybe one day you would secretly marry some woman and secretly give birth to a son like my father did... Once I think like this, I can't help but feel anxious and sad, and I can't wait to have a child myself."

Yuan Pingzhi touched her head. He could probably guess what was going on in her heart. That's why he had been indulging her for so long because he was afraid that she would get into trouble.

"I also want to be like other virtuous wives, take the initiative to take concubines and bear children for my husband, and pass on the heirs. Even my father wrote to me to persuade me not to be as domineering as my mother, and don't follow in her footsteps. As long as we have a deep relationship, it's not a big deal even if we take in concubines." Gu Xi'en whispered about her psychological struggle in the past few years."But I can't do it. When I think about other women being with my husband, I feel very uncomfortable. Am I really hopeless?"
