197 It’s Difficult for You to Have a Child with Him
Her husband, who apparently loved her but often neglected her, was intimately sleeping with a good-looking man.
Her heart deeply ached at that scene.
She could not stand such humiliation, and she ran away and vomited.
When Wu Erlang returned to the room that night, the smell of the man was still on his body.
She mustered the courage to question him. Unfortunately, Wu Erlang did not have sophistry and admitted that he was not interested in women. He even threatened her to keep the secret. Otherwise, she would be the one to lose face if he divorced her.
She had been taught since she was a child to take good care of her husband and children after marriage, but she had never thought she would have such a marriage.
After she found out about the secret, Wu Erlang stopped hiding it and even let the man accompany him as his subordinate. Moreover, he even slept with the man in front of her, and the man sometimes even provoked her.
She had begged Wu Erlang to give her a child, and Wu Erlang had agreed.
But he still did not have any reaction even when she stood in front of him naked. And even if he ate the medicine to help him, he would vomit on her whenever he touched her.
Zhao Chuchu looked at Ms. Zhu, who was in a state of hurt. She thought Ms. Zhu should be a very virtuous woman, but it was a pity that she was married to the wrong person and wasted so many years of her youth.
“Life is your own. You should understand that some things are hard to change, and forcing them is fruitless.” Zhao Chuchu interrupted her thoughts. “The answer to the question is very simple. It’s all up to you.”
Zhao Chuchu was tempted to put forward a bad idea.
However, it was now the era of male supremacy, so letting Ms. Zhu have a child with someone else would be a little unethical.
After all, it would be Ms. Zhu who would suffer in the end.
She wanted to persuade Ms. Zhu to divorce her husband. But looking at her, she was afraid Ms. Zhu would put up with it for the rest of her life.
“Mrs. Xie, can you really identify what the reason is?” Ms. Zhu looked up at Zhao Chuchu.
Zhao Chuchu came up to her ear and whispered, “He walks unsteadily and has heavy bags under his eyes, so it’s obvious that he has overindulged in sex. Since you’re still a virgin, it can prove that the one sleeping with him is not a woman.”
Ms. Zhu did not dare believe it. “How do you know?”
“I deduced that.” Zhao Chuchu sighed. “It’s not easy for women to live. I can’t say some things directly, but I want to tell you that it’s difficult for you to have a child with him.”
Ms. Zhu’s tears fell at once.
Many years of aggravation instantly bubbled up.
No one knew how much she had suffered during those years of marriage.
But there was no way to talk about this suffering.
Who would believe it?
Even to her mother, who cared for her, Ms. Zhu could not say anything.
Everyone thought she had married a good husband, but only she knew how painful it was. She had to force a smile during the day, and only at midnight did she dare to shed tears.
Now, she couldn’t hold back her tears when these things were exposed to a girl she didn’t know.
“I really don’t know what to do. Even if he gives me a child, I can still have hope…” Ms. Zhu suppressed her sobs. “No one knows how painful it is. They will only say that I am lucky to have married a good man.”
Ms. Zhu continued, “But who knows what I have to face every day? Sometimes I really want to die, but my parents will be sad, so I dare not. Mrs. Xie, what do you think I should do? I’m already in my thirties, but my life has been ruined, and I can’t see a glint of light in my life…”
Ms. Zhu told her how hard it had been all these years. Her parents-in-law forced them to have children and kept making her take medicine.
But was this something that could be solved by taking medicine?
How could she give birth to a child when her husband wouldn’t even touch her?
She didn’t dare to say it out loud, nor could she.
She didn’t want to see her parents worry about her.
So she preferred just to create the illusion that she was doing well.
“What did your husband say?”
“He said he tried his best, and to the public, he also declared that he couldn’t have children because of his problems. That’s why my parents-in-law didn’t blame me much. However, this has made it impossible for me to ask for a divorce.”
Zhao Chuchu did not know what to say.
This was really disgusting.
If he could not meet the requirements, he should not stop others.
Why did he act like he loved his wife so much and didn’t want her to be wronged? He should have given her her freedom earlier.
“Mrs. Xie, I feel much better after talking to you today. My life has been like this, so just forget it. At least I have no worries about food and clothing, and it’s much better than those who are starving and freezing.” Ms. Zhu wiped away her tears and forced a smile.
“Why don’t you let your husband come in and talk to him openly and honestly for once? Will you be able to go on like this?” Zhao Chuchu asked. It was disgusting that Wu Erlang cheated on his marriage, but after all, this was someone else’s family matter, and that was all the advice she could give.
The Wei Dynasty was not like the latter days. It was not at all friendly to women who were divorced.
If Ms. Zhu really got divorced, she would probably suffer even more.
“Forget it. I feel much better after saying it out loud. And life can still go on.” Ms. Zhu shook her head and rejected Zhao Chuchu’s proposal.
Zhao Chuchu was helpless, but she couldn’t force Ms. Zhu to make any decision.
She waited for Ms. Zhu to tidy up her appearance and return to her usual self before letting Elder Mrs. Qiu and her brother in.
Wu Erlang had a nervous expression, and the first thing he did was to warn Ms. Zhu not to talk nonsense.
Elder Mrs. Qiu hurriedly asked, “How is it, Mrs. Xie? Is there any way out?”
Zhao Chuchu shook her head. “I’m sorry, Elder Mrs. Qiu. Unfortunately, I can’t help.”
Elder Mrs. Qiu was immediately discouraged.
“Even you can’t do anything?”
“Yes, it seems like no one in this world has a cure.”
When Zhao Chuchu said this, she looked at Wu Erlang.
“Nature can’t be changed.”
Wu Erlang immediately glared at Zhao Chuchu.
Zhao Chuchu faintly curled her lips. “Do you want to cure it, Mr. Wu?”
“There is no cure. I don’t want to be treated. I don’t want to take medicine,” Wu Erlang said loudly.
Elder Mrs. Qiu looked at Wu Erlang and then at Ms. Zhu.
There was nothing else she could do at that point.
“Can I talk to Mr. Wu for a while?” Zhao Chuchu asked Elder Mrs. Qiu for her opinion.
Elder Mrs. Qiu suddenly realized something, and a hint of shock flashed across the bottom of her eyes.
In the end, she left without saying a single word.
“What do you want to do?” Wu Erlang’s expression turned cold. “Did my wife tell you something that she shouldn’t have?”
Zhao Chuchu looked indifferent. “I am a doctor. I don’t need her to tell me the truth. I knew you and your wife had not slept together when you first came in.
“It is impossible for a man to control his sexual desire all the time. Since such a woman is by your side and still a virgin, what else do you think it could be?” Zhao Chuchu asked.
She continued, “But I also want to give you some advice. While some things might make you happy, too much of it is not necessarily better. You should know that there is always a limit. As for your affair with your wife, seriously, it’s better not to delay her.”
Wu Erlang was furious and pointed at Ms. Zhu. “Are you talking nonsense again?”
“Are you afraid of others knowing about what you’ve done? These things have nothing to do with your wife. You have to believe that an experienced doctor can tell what disease you have at a glance. Although the disease of childbirth can’t be cured, I can probably cure your hidden disease.”
“What do you mean?” Wu Erlang’s expression suddenly changed.
