Things turned out just as Lu Yan expected, that bowl of medicine was Bizi Soup.

This is the ruthlessness of wealthy families. They completely treat their wives as sexual tools rather than people. They provide sexual enlightenment for the young master when he is young, but they will never allow him to become pregnant and have children. If a concubine is born before marriage is discussed, many women from wealthy families cannot accept this.

Therefore, the maids in the first house would drink the soup after serving the young master. The mistress would never allow any accidents to happen. But last night, as soon as Fuxiang finished drinking the Bizi Soup, she went out and vomited all over. The medicine stayed in her stomach for probably five minutes before she passed away under the big tree. Lu Yan saw her vomiting there last night, and she was picking up the vomit to avoid the soup.

Mrs. Xue was already asleep at that time, and the guards of the Xue family told Mrs. Xue about this the next morning. Mrs. Xue was furious and felt that Fuxiang was playing tricks on her, so she immediately poured her another bowl of medicine in an attempt to betray her.

This is probably the story, which is quite different from what Lu Yan guessed.

Lu Yan was a little incredulous: "Fuxiang said that she didn't do it on purpose and that she vomited after eating something wrong. Did Xue Zhuoyuan believe it?"

Lu Sheng smiled half-heartedly: "Do you believe it?"

"I don't believe it. But it doesn't matter whether I believe it or not." Lu Yan said, "Does Xue Zhuoyuan believe it?"

"Of course he doesn't believe it either." Lu Sheng said, "He is also a Jinshi after all, so he can't even understand the woman's little scheme."

Lu Yan was a little confused: "Then he acquiesced? Why did he stop Mrs. Xue?"

"He didn't acquiesce. When Mrs. Xue asked people to pour medicine into Fuxiang, he didn't stop him at all. He just stopped Mrs. Xue from selling Fuxiang." Lu Sheng explained: "This kind of look He didn't take it seriously at all. He didn't feel that there was any threat to him, and it was far from the point where he needed to deal with Fuxiang."

Lu Yan was a little stunned when she heard this, and Lu Sheng smiled meaningfully: "Furthermore, after something like this happened, Fu Xiang felt that Mrs. Xue was thinking about selling her every day, and she would become more dependent on Xue Zhuoyuan. Just see, this She will have to serve Xue Zhuoyuan more attentively and carefully for a few days."

"What has Xue Zhuoyuan lost by making such a fuss? He has lost nothing. If Mrs. Xue focuses on Fuxiang, she will be able to mind less of his business. But Fuxiang is always on tenterhooks and will only become more obedient and obedient to him. He I’d love to see it come to fruition.”

Lu Yan was stunned.

Seeing Lu Yan's shattered outlook, Lu Sheng couldn't help but laugh: "It's better to read less of the story books. The fights in the back house written in the story books made me feel like I was blind, and I couldn't tell who was better. Whoever is bad is talking nonsense.”

"We have been studying for more than ten years, fighting from the academy to the court, and stepping on countless people's heads to get to where we are today. How many books have the women in the back house read and how many people have they come into contact with? What is your vision of them? Is there any misunderstanding? The so-called strategies they can come up with are just childish in the eyes of men."

"Men are all pretending to be blind. They know everything, they just don't want to take care of it. The so-called "treating the main wife harshly, doting on concubines and destroying wives", do you really think they don't know what a concubine is? That is intentional. The relationship between women The fight is all about that man, and he is secretly happy that he is willing to put in effort for him, and no one will stop him."

Lu Yan still agrees with this. Women in ancient times were trapped in their female identity from childhood. They were not allowed to read sages' books and go to school like men. They were ordered to stay at home and never step out of the door. Personality is shaped by the environment, and it is difficult for them to have insights beyond their own identities.

It is almost impossible for men to be completely unaware of women's fights in the back room. Just like in an exam, many people feel that their movements are very hidden, but in fact, the teacher is supervising the exam on the podium, and everyone under the podium can clearly see what they are doing, no matter if they just don't want to be so serious.

Fuxiang is like Xue Zhuoyuan's pet, a little thoughtful is more interesting. Anyway, her biggest wish is that the owner will give her more and a promise to never abandon her.

She knew that she could never become Xue Zhuoyuan's wife, and the most she could do to conceive a child was to raise her as an aunt. But if she had a child, Mrs. Xue would not be able to sell her so easily, and she would be able to stay by Xue Zhuoyuan's side safely. So she tried hard to seize this good opportunity when everyone was running around outside and their attention was distracted.

Lu Yan felt a chill on her back for a moment, which was a sense of oppression coming from the times. The relatively relaxed and free social environment of the Dali Dynasty, the goodwill of the people around her, and the sense of accomplishment brought by her further and further away blinded Lu Yan's eyes, making her ignore the oppression of women in her era.

This is ancient times. In modern times, women have not achieved equal status with men, and it is even less possible here. Lu Yan faced the scene where men completely objectified women and played with them in their hands, which shocked her and reshaped her outlook on life.

Originally, the word "maid of intercourse" had some rosy fantasies in Lu Yan's mind, but after this incident, the ambiguity covering it has been completely taken off. Her core is clearly revealed - "control".

Lu Yan could no longer treat Xue Zhuoyuan as a child. Lu Sheng and his group had completely changed their appearance in Lu Yan's mind.

Lu Sheng sensed that something was wrong with Lu Yan, and after a moment's thought, he knew what she was struggling with, and said, "You don't have to think too much, you are different from her."

Lu Yan nodded: "I know. Not only am I different from her, it's hard to find someone who is the same as me. But we are all women, and it's hard for me not to be a substitute for the entire female group. It's just like others."

"Why are you sad for the entire group?" Lu Sheng didn't understand: "You are just yourself."

"There is a problem with women's living space. This matter concerns all people born as women, including me of course. If you are not aware of the problem, you will never be able to solve it." Lu Yan looked past Lu Sheng and seemed to see Pointing to a certain point in the void: "I don't know what to say, I just think I should do something for them."

Wait for me. I have discovered the problem, and if I have the ability, I will do my best.
