Divorce with three kids? I'll build a house and eat meat, driving my in-laws crazy.

Chapter 135 Her periods are a bit irregular

Li Ruru exclaimed, "Wow!"

How would she know such a question? The original owner of this body was obsessed with love, working herself to the bone just for Chen Sanbao.

She herself is a lifelong single and has virtually no dating experience.

She wanted to refuse outright, but when she looked up, she found three heads staring intently at her.

Chu Xiu was about to leave, but when he reached the door and heard Bai Lu reject him, he turned back.

I'll settle the score with Dad next time I go home.

Under the expectant gazes of the three, Li Ruru had no choice but to speak up: "Well, if you feel happy and excited when you put on your wedding dress, wear the red veil, and sit in the bridal sedan chair, then you can marry this person."

Of course, this only means that one can get married, at least on the wedding day, one is happy and full of hope for the future.

As for what it will be like after marriage, no one can say for sure.

All three heads were bowed, pondering Li Ruru's words.

Shuya thought that she was a servant who would accompany her mistress in her dowry. Whether she got married or was happy was not important. What mattered was that her mistress must be happy.

A key step in a woman's happiness is choosing a husband.

She asked anxiously, "Miss, do you have these feelings for Doctor Nie?"

Bai Lu blinked her big eyes and asked, "I've never even met him, so how could I possibly have any feelings about him?"

"Just imagine it, imagine you're going to marry him now, would you be happy?"

"I can't imagine it." Bai Lu tried hard to think, but no image came to mind.

Chu Xiu, who was standing to the side, had his eyes closed and was carefully pondering Li Ruru's words.

He wasn't sure if he would get married in the future, but one thing was certain: his bride would not be Bai Lu.

The thought of marrying Bailu made him instinctively frown.

He admitted that Bai Lu was very beautiful, but he just didn't have any feelings for her.

He believes that intelligence is more important than good looks, and that intellectual relationships are more likely to last.

As he was thinking, the image of Chaochao bustling about in the yard suddenly appeared in his mind.

Chu Xiu suddenly opened his eyes and hurriedly shook his head.

Li Ruru looked at Bai Lu and said with a smile, "Marriage is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly. You should find some time to meet that Doctor Nie."

As soon as she finished speaking, three heads stared at her, their faces filled with disbelief.

Shuya said, "Aunt Li, my young lady is a very wealthy and noble lady. If people find out, it will be terrible."

Li Ruru was taken aback. Oh right, she had overlooked that point.

Women in Da Tang were expected to follow the "Three Obediences": obey their father before marriage, obey their husband after marriage, and obey their son after their husband's death.

Unmarried women were required to follow their father's instructions, and taking the initiative to meet with men was considered a violation of their father's authority.

Furthermore, influenced by the idea that "men and women should not touch each other," if a woman takes the initiative to meet a man, it will be considered as not conforming to etiquette norms, because the two parties will inevitably talk and even have physical contact.

Furthermore, the Bai family is a large and influential family, and her actions will affect the reputation and interests of the entire family.

If Bai Lu were to take the initiative to meet with Doctor Nie, she would be considered to have acted improperly and not in accordance with traditional womanly virtues.

Li Ruru rested her chin on her hand and said, "It's quite tricky."

Sigh, it's so hard being an unmarried woman; you're constantly being watched and manipulated by society.

Unlike her, who got married and had children, neither society nor the law could control her.

Suddenly, an idea struck her, and her eyes lit up. "We can do this..."

Li Ruru chattered away with the three of them for a long time before finally coming up with a practical solution.

The plan is set; all that's left is to take action.

Li Ruru stood up and said, "Miss Bai, just let us know when you've made up your mind."

Chu Xiu pushed open the door and was about to leave when she heard Su Ya say anxiously, "What are we waiting for? The Nie family clinic is just across the street. It's not easy for Aunt Li to come all the way to the county town. Let's do it today." Seeing that her young mistress didn't speak, she became even more anxious: "Miss, don't delay. Things might change if we wait too long."

She feared that before her young mistress could make up her mind, the madam would have already married her off.

It's always better to do something sooner rather than later.

Bai Lu bit her lip and asked, "Aunt Li, are you... busy today?"

Li Ruru had a lot of things to do at home, but she still shook her head and said, "It's okay, I'll just go over and relax for a bit. You guys change your clothes first."

While Bai Lu and Shu Ya were changing clothes, Li Ruru instructed Chu Xiu, "Don't talk too much in a while, or you'll give yourself away."

“Godmother, I’m reliable.” Chu Xiu said defiantly.

Soon, Bai Lu changed into a coarse linen dress and her jet-black hair was styled into a lady's bun.

"Let's go," Chu Xiu said.

Bai Lu followed behind him with small, quick steps, linking arms with Li Ruru. When she saw the gleaming words "Nie Family Medical Clinic" across the street, she felt inexplicably nervous.

"How about... how about we do it another day?"

"We were just saying there's no time like the present, don't be afraid." Li Ruru patted the back of her hand.

"It wasn't me who said it, it was Shuya who said it," Bai Lu retorted.

"Isn't it all the same?"

The three crossed the road and soon arrived at the clinic.

The Nie Family Medical Clinic is doing very well. There are many staff members busy in the lobby, and long queues of patients are waiting to be seen.

Bai Lu looked up and saw only a hand holding a pen writing in the distance through the gaps in the crowd.

Those hands are so big and white, they look very strong.

About half an hour later, it was finally their turn.

Chu Xiu wiped his smudged face and said, "Doctor, could you please take a look at my wife? She..."

He was rehearsing perfectly fine, but then he couldn't say the rest of his lines.

Li Ruru chimed in, "Doctor, could you please check if my daughter-in-law has any problems? She's been married for a year and still hasn't gotten pregnant. Her periods are a bit irregular."

Chu Xiu couldn't bring himself to say the word "menstruation," but Li Ruru said it very naturally, looking anxious without any trace of acting.

It's about a mother-in-law who cares about her daughter-in-law, but is also a little annoyed that her daughter-in-law can't have children.

Chu Xiu was secretly annoyed. It was just two words, why were they so difficult to pronounce?

Li Ruru had anticipated this, otherwise she wouldn't have reminded him earlier.

Sigh, men seem to be the same in every dynasty.

Even in the 21st century, many men feel ashamed when they talk about sanitary napkins, let alone this feudalistic brothel.

Inside the clinic, Nie Tianlei sat calmly at the table, like a steady mountain.

He wore a moon-white scholar's robe, made of fine material that shimmered softly in the dim light, with wide sleeves hanging down naturally.

His exquisite face resembled a finely carved piece of jade, his fair skin exuding a cool and aloof air, and beneath his thick, dark eyebrows were a pair of long, narrow, and deep-set eyes.

His dark pupils were like a bottomless, icy pool, giving him a focused and serious expression.

Her black hair was neatly tied on top of her head and secured with a jade hairpin. The bun was tight and smooth, with a few stray hairs falling in front of her forehead, yet it did not look messy at all.

"Madam, may I have your hand?"

Bai Lu gently raised her hand.

Nie Tianlei rested his left hand naturally on the side of an antique pulse pillow, while his right hand was slightly raised, signaling Bai Lu not to speak. His movements were gentle yet carried an undeniable professionalism.

Li Ruru and Chu Xiu also shut up. For a while, Nie Tianlei didn't say anything, but his brows furrowed more and more.

Li Ruru also became nervous. Could Bai Lu really have some kind of illness?
