Slave Husband I Bought (Female Dominant)

Chapter 28

At home, Ye Lan was placed on the bed by Xu Qi, while she went outside to boil water and prepare the medicine. Completely unaware that the person lying on the bed had restless thoughts and had come downstairs, he lay on the door sill, staring foolishly at Xu Qi, remembering what the doctor said about his inability to bear children, his heart aching.

For a man, having offspring is the foundation of existence. If he cannot even have offspring, what use is there in marrying?

“Ah Lan? Why did you come out? It’s cold outside, I’m making the medicine for you, hurry back to bed.”

The sound of footsteps behind her was too obvious, Xu Qi turned her head and saw her husband standing there.

“Mistress.”

Ye Lan called softly, and Xu Qi walked over and lifted him up horizontally, carrying him back to the room and laying him gently on the bed.

“Wife...”

He held Xu Qi’s hand, looking uncomfortable.

How could Xu Qi not see his inner struggle?

Ever since Doctor Chen told him about the issue with bearing children, he had been looking so distressed.

In this era, it’s the men who bear the children, so they bear much of the burden.

Xu Qi patted Ye Lan’s head gently and said to him, “If you want to, we’ll take good care and there will always be a chance. Don’t be sad anymore.”@@@@

Ye Lan lowered his head and nuzzled into Xu Qi’s arms, not saying anything. The pressing issue now was that he feared his wife would abandon him because he couldn’t bear children.

Xu Qi agreed to help Xu Qiu in the afternoon, so she had already made dinner early for herself and Ye Lan. After giving Ye Lan his meal and instructing him to come eat when he was hungry, she went to help Xu Zhi’s family.

Xu Zhi seemed somewhat surprised when she saw Xu Qi and approached her, patting her shoulder and asking, “Why are you here? Aren’t you supposed to be at home with your little husband?”

“Didn’t you say your family is busy with the autumn harvest? I came to help out.”

“How did you know my family is busy with the autumn harvest? I didn’t tell you.”

Xu Zhi’s words carried a hint of suspicion.

“Alright, let’s not chat, let’s get to work.”

Xu Qiu interrupted somewhat nervously.

“Okay.”

Xu Zhi responded and started bending down to cut the crops.

Only Xu Qi stood there, facing Xu Qiu.

After a while, Xu Qiu turned his head away, avoiding her gaze.

Xu Qi didn’t say anything more and bent down to work in the field.

It was the hottest time of the day, and the sun was scorching. Xu Qi didn’t stop sweating while cutting the crops in the field. When Xu Qiu saw this, he walked over and reached out to wipe her sweat, but Xu Qi reacted quickly this time, almost bending her waist backward when she raised her head.

“What are you doing?”

Xu Qiu laughed.

Xu Qi looked at Ye Lan, who refused to raise his head to meet her gaze.

It wasn’t until Uncle Man mentioned washing clothes again and left first.

Ye Lan’s heart was pounding.

Just shortly after his wife left, Uncle Man came to find his Xu Qi again. Seeing his wife wasn’t there, he pulled him aside to chat, and as they talked, they walked away to another place.

“Men should have a woman by their side to bear offspring.”

“I, I’m afraid my body isn’t good...”

“Ah, what’s the big deal about that? You worked hard in the past few years, and now that you’re in Qi’er’s house, Qi’er will surely take good care of you. Just take good care of your body. However, you must pay attention to something. Women are creatures who think with their lower bodies. Don’t be too reserved. If you don’t give her enough attention for a long time, she’ll think you’re boring and go find someone else to have fun with.”

“Is, is that true?”

“Of course it’s true. Uncle Man is experienced. Just listen to Uncle Man, and you won’t go wrong. Qi’er is quite popular in the village. Some days ago, someone even asked me if Qi’er would take a concubine. You have a gentle temperament. If she really takes a concubine, you’ll end up with nothing.”

Ye Lan couldn’t help but think of Xu Qi’s conversation with Xu Qiu today.

If she were to take a concubine, would it be someone like that man?

Men understand men the best. He could see the hidden joy in the man’s eyes when he looked at his wife.

Because at that moment, in his heart, a slow-growing emotion called jealousy was beginning to emerge.

He was jealous that the man had known his wife for so long, jealous that the man was cleaner than him, prettier than him, better than him...

Xu Qi’s mood improved because her husband came out to find her on his own initiative, but as she was about to sit down and talk, Ye Lan suddenly fell into her arms.

Xu Qi was stunned.

“Ah, Ah Lan?”

“Wife, I’m a little cold, could you hold me and go back to the room?”

Of course, sure!

Xu Qi followed Ye Lan’s posture, carrying him like a child into the room and laying him on the bed.

She wanted to sit up on the edge of the bed, but she was grabbed by her collar.

“I’m a little cold.”

“You, you relax first, I’ll cover you with a blanket.” Xu Qi swallowed hard.

“Come up and sleep with me, wife, then I won’t be cold anymore.”

Ye Lan whispered in Xu Qi’s ear, his voice unexpectedly seductive.

Xu Qi was awakened by the word “wife”, but the seductive tone made her mind unclear. She pursed her lips and looked at Ye Lan, “You, what are you doing?”

Ye Lan closed his eyes and nodded slightly, “I want you, wife.”
