Chapter 1660 Emperor Qin seeks a son
Ye Yuran is naturally not afraid. She knows the power of public opinion better than anyone else.
If Mrs. Jia dares to "sell her out afterwards", she has many ways to deal with this woman. But for now, in order to gain Mrs. Jia's trust, some risks are still worth taking.
What's more, she said these words "impulsively" because she sympathized with the other party.
"That's not because I met you." Ye Yuran looked into her eyes and said very sincerely, "I don't know why, but I felt so attached to you as soon as I saw you. There was a feeling... like meeting an old friend.
, I want to say something heartfelt to you. I know I’m just a country woman, and I wouldn’t even be qualified to talk to you in normal times, but I just want to say it.”
Mrs. Jia didn't know why, but she was a little moved.
Even her mother's family, knowing her situation clearly, never "comforted" her. Even her mother was blaming her why she couldn't give birth to a son after so many years of marriage into the Jia family.
If she hadn't been able to give birth to a son, what would Jia Hongfang have done?
However, she was really aggrieved.
Son, doesn’t she want to have a baby?
But she can't get pregnant, what can she do?
The Jia family is blaming her, her natal family is blaming her, it’s like everyone in the world is blaming her. However, at this time, a strange Aunt Zhu said to her - it’s not your fault that you can’t give birth, it might be your man’s fault
.
She knows that as a wife, she should be proud of her husband. When someone insults her husband, she is insulted. She should be angry, angry, and teach the other person a lesson.
But she just couldn't do it.
Like a leech, it finally absorbed a little warmth. She couldn't wait to hug it without missing a single bit.
Seeing that her eyes were red, Ye Yuran held her hand tightly and said, "If you want to cry, just cry. Only God knows and earth knows, you know and I know. After you leave this door, you will still be gentle, virtuous, and temperamental."
Noble Mrs. Jia."
Mrs. Jia couldn't bear it anymore and threw herself into her arms, feeling the warmth that seemed to come from her "mother".
She cried very quietly and in a low voice because she was afraid that the sound would get louder and spread out of the box, and she would not be able to explain clearly.
Ye Yuran didn't say anything, but just let her tears wet her shoulders.
Sometimes, it's not crying loudly that is called "painful", but "crying" without even daring to cry loudly is the most painful, because she doesn't even have an outlet to vent her emotions.
After years of grievance, Ye Yuran asked someone outside to get water and said she wanted to wash her hands. In fact, she used a handkerchief to wipe Mrs. Jia's face to cover up the traces of crying.
She told her that as women, it is our right to cry, but after crying, we must face every day bravely.
No one in this world can help us but ourselves.
She thought back then, when she gave birth to her fourth and fifth babies, the conditions at home were already very poor and she was starved almost every time. It was normal for a child to starve to death in someone else's home. But she was not convinced. Now that she had given birth
When you come out, you have to feed yourself. Since you don’t have enough to eat, you still have to live well.
So she tried every means to get food, like a shrew, looking for food everywhere, and for a little bit of food, she could quarrel, make trouble, and fight with others.
It's a bit embarrassing to say it, but at that time, she was able to support her children with the things she had "fought" and "robbed".
"I don't regret it at all. Even if I was called an old pious woman, old and immortal, that's not the same thing, but I didn't starve a single child to death. I fed them all and raised them all. I think everything was worth it..."
The smile on Ye Yuran's face was light and gentle, as if the hardships she had suffered so often had never happened.
Listening to her stories, Mrs. Jia couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that you have also suffered so much. Compared with you, I suddenly feel that all mine are nothing. Although everyone blames me for not being able to give birth, but
At least they don't dare to withhold my clothes or let me starve."
"Sometimes, mental 'abuse' is the real abuse, because it cannot be seen or touched, nor can it be replenished by eating an extra bowl of rice. It is like an invisible hand, even after many years
In the future, it will still linger in my mind. But the world is like this now. The power is in the hands of men, the rules are set by them, and they have the final say in everything. We women can only live between the rules.
"Ye Yuran said, "But even living between the rules is not without some benefits. As long as you master the 'rules', you can also use the 'rules' to get what you want."
"How to use it?" Mrs. Jia wondered. In a situation like hers, where a child cannot be born and her parents' family dislikes it, what else can she do?
Ye Yuran asked her: "At present, what do you want most?"
"Of course having a baby."
"What is your purpose of having children? Is it because you like children, or because you want to consolidate your position as your legitimate wife?"
"I like children...maybe both." Mrs. Jia's tone was uncertain.
Ye Yuran raised his eyebrows: "Your tone...I'm afraid you don't really want to give birth to that man's child, right? Maybe you like children, but you don't want to give birth to him. It would be great if you could change to another man..."
"Aunt Zhu, you made a mistake." Mrs. Jia frowned and interrupted her quickly, "If there is any, just let us know about it. Don't say it out loud. Be careful that walls have ears."
If this wasn't a remote town far away from the capital, she wouldn't have relaxed so much. She actually said those words and even cried in front of others.
"Sorry!" Ye Yuran apologized sincerely and said, "Anyway, the most important thing you should do now is to consolidate your position, right? Let me ask you a question, you have never thought about divorce and leaving the Jia family.
?”
"Are you crazy?!"
Seeing her shocked expression, Ye Yuran had an idea: "It seems that you really haven't thought about it that way. Since you haven't thought about reconciliation, that is, you haven't thought about leaving Jia's family, then you just
There is only one way left - stay in the Jia family, secure your position, quietly make a fortune, and prepare for the pension issue in the rest of your life."
Mrs. Jia was still thinking about reconciliation in her mind, but Ye Yuran returned directly to the topic of "consolidating the position of the legitimate wife", and was still a little confused: shouldn't you give me some more advice?
But to be honest, she really hadn't thought about reconciliation.
She really wanted to leave the Jia family, but all she could think about was - if only she hadn't married Jia Hongfang back then, she could have married anyone, as long as it wasn't him.
However, time cannot be turned back, and she has no effect except "regret" in her heart.
"Then you can analyze now what you need to do if you want to secure this position. First, whether having children will affect your position as legitimate wife, and if you must have a child, can you adopt it?
One? Even if it’s from a concubine, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, you just want the position, it doesn’t matter whose child it is…”
