Chapter 1421: So What Contribution Do You Make?
Cai Anqi had done a gastroscopy and an endoscopy, so she wasn’t feeling well. She had an excuse to stay in bed.
Ning Shu didn’t ask her to get up either. She quietly took the medicine pot to cook Cai Anqi’s medicine.
Fortunately, these days, you no longer had to fan the medicine as you simmered it.
In addition to the medicinal ingredients prescribed by the doctor, Ning Shu added extra medicinal ingredients to it. When the medicine was done, she took it to Cai Anqi’s room.
Ning Shu knocked on the door for a long time, and Cai Anqi finally opened the door. When Cai Anqi saw Ning Shu holding a dark-colored medicine, she quickly pinched her nose and made a disgusted noise.
“Drink it.” Ning Shu handed the bowl of medicine to Cai Anqi.
Cai Anqi viciously shook her head. “I won’t drink. I’m free to choose whether or not I want to have children.”
Ning Shu wasn’t angry. She simply put the bowl down on the bedside cabinet, peered at Cai Anqi, and asked, “Why are you so confident? Just because Wang Bo likes you? “
“You could force Wang Bo to divorce me. I’ll be willing to leave. I just don’t know if Wang Bo would like to divorce,” Cai Anqi said, toying with her hair and raising her eyebrows.
Ning Shu pressed her lips together and lightly said, “Everyone has their own personal responsibilities, social responsibilities, and family responsibilities. Housewives have their own job. You don’t have to do housework. You could go to work.”
“Why must I do this? Why should I go to work? Why should I do housework?” Cai Anqi asked shamelessly.
Ning Shu was left flabbergasted. “So what contribution do you make to this family? It has always been men who work outside and women who manage the household. It’s not that women never did anything. You can also have your own career or work.”
She didn’t want to work, didn’t want to do housework, and didn’t want to have children? Family members had a division of labor, and if all things had to be done by one person, how was it any different from a single employee doing everything in a company? The person would sooner or later quit.
The family needed to be managed. Whether it was doing housework or work, the family balance had to be maintained.
She contributed nothing to the family, yet she expected everyone to spoil her like a princess.
She thought of herself too highly.
During the evolutions of human beings, men did the more dangerous hunting activities, while women were in charge of the smaller, more tedious things. With the development of society, women now could choose their own lives and careers as they liked.
But it has never been said that women don’t have to do anything. Even if they didn’t, they still had the duty to reproduce and relied on this to get the resources needed for survival.
“Oh, do women have to have children? I don’t want to have them.” Cai Anqi said indifferently.
Ning Shu: …
“Drink the medicine.” Ning Shu pushed the warm medicine towards Cai Anqi.
“I said I don’t want to drink this,” Cai Anqi impatiently said.
Ning Shu squinted and said, “Drink it. You have a serious gynecological disease. Just take this as a treatment to your disease.”
Cai Anqi’s face instantly turned black, but she reluctantly took a deep breath and drank the medicine. However, she immediately retched due to the bitterness.
Ning Shu left the room with the empty bowl, and Cai Anqi fell back on the bed to sleep.
Ning Shu didn’t call Cai Anqi to do housework.
When Wang Bo came back from work, Ning Shu said to Wang Bo, “You go check up on your wife. She’s not feeling well.”
Wang Bo hurried to their bedroom to take a look.
Dinner was a bowl of noodles for each person. When Cai Anqi saw the noodles with clear soup, she made an ugly expression and asked, “How do you expect me to eat this kind of food?”
Ning Shu said with an unchanged expression, “You’re taking medicine now. You shouldn’t eat anything too greasy or spicy.”
Ning Shu: Frick, sooner or later, I’ll level up my cooking.
Cai Anqi rolled her eyes and poked the noodles in the bowl with her chopsticks.
Wang Bo comforted Cai Anqi, “Just bear with it for the time being.”
