My Wife Is The Final Boss

Chapter 1159 - 634: Asking Chang’an (Double Length) (Part 2)

"Your days are the twenty-second of the late month, right?" Zhu Pingniang said, blinking at Miss Lu: "The twenty-second is the day for calculating the monthly salary, I’ve never seen you take a break because of menstrual blood."

Late month twenty-second?

When Yun Qian heard this term, she instinctively glanced at the blushing Miss Lu.

She remembered this date; Miss Lu had confided in her that she wanted to have her menstruation days separate from those of Madame Xu to avoid interrupting her service.

So, in the future, when she had her menstruation, she would try to avoid this day.

However, Yun Qian had a question at the time. If women couldn’t be in their full state during menstruation days, wouldn’t it be better to have men, who wouldn’t have menstruation, serve as maids instead?

Well, she wasn’t talking about those in the Celestial Family’s palace; Miss Yun didn’t understand all this, she was referring to her own husband or former butler.

Always being taken care of by her husband, she didn’t really need any maids... But that wasn’t important, so Yun Qian yawned and continued to watch Miss Lu with interest.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Miss Lu blushed when Zhu Pingniang directly revealed her most secret days to Wen Li: "Ms. Zhu, you’re idle, aren’t you? Why remember my days for no reason?"

"It’s not like I intentionally remember. Every month, you only have those two days." Zhu Pingniang shrugged; when close, it’s impossible not to remember such things.

"Fine, anyway, you’re just taking advantage because you don’t have menstruation... I really can’t do anything about you." Miss Lu sighed.

"I indeed stopped having that long ago." Zhu Pingniang nodded.

According to Zhu Tongjun’s past personality, she would indeed stop menstruation early when she reached a certain realm in cultivation. When menstruation hardly affected her anymore, Zhu Tongjun would decisively cut off the Red Dragon...

So, for Miss Lu, the complex attitude towards menstruation was merely a cultivation tool for Zhu Pingniang, and she wasn’t qualified to comment on it.

"Then why?" Zhu Pingniang seriously looked at Miss Lu: "You, the girls... Since none of you feel bad about it and are used to resting a few days each month... It seems there aren’t that many girls dissatisfied with this."

"...That’s right." Miss Lu twisted her hands together, then looked up with a deep sense of helplessness: "Because after all these years, we’re accustomed to it."

"...Accustomed..."

Zhu Pingniang was startled and then understood.

Because they’re accustomed to it, as the head of the family, standing on behalf of the girls, Miss Lu felt such poor emotions.

Clearly, menstrual blood brought irreparable harm from all aspects to women in the mortal world, yet every girl had already grown accustomed to integrating it into their lives...

That kind of helplessness is something every ’Mother’ or ’Sister’ can understand.

That’s why Miss Lu was angry.

"I get it... But you, this Ni Zi." Zhu Pingniang gently held Miss Lu’s cheeks as if kneading dough, and she hummed: "In the end, it’s the fault of this era’s Literary Commander deeming women’s menstrual blood unclean and knocking its status to the ground... The menstrual blood itself isn’t wrong."

From the current rules of the Heavenly Dao, solitary Yin does not sustain life, and solitary Yang does not grow. The Yin and Yang balance, ’everything cycles... Menstrual blood, which can symbolize reproduction, life cycles, is inherently right.

"I don’t care, I don’t understand those things." Miss Lu snorted, then realized Zhu Pingniang was encouraging her and softened her tone: "Ms. Zhu, I don’t really have strong opinions on this matter, but I want to remind you... Later if you intend to bring the girls from the building into cultivation... There will be plenty of trouble."

How to tell those suffering girls that menstrual blood is actually a blessing...?

Zhu Pingniang had nothing to say; she pressed her fingers lightly against her brow, feeling a faint headache.

She indeed got reminded by Miss Lu.

If even Miss Lu feels this way, how could the remaining girls accept menstrual blood?

It’s not that easy.

But if they can’t accept it, then the monthly Spirit Road becomes harmful, because Muyu Peak doesn’t comply with ordinary cultivation that just requires having a Spirit Road?

What they’re cultivating are Six Arts for Women, focusing on the heart.

"So, it’s as long as making these girls feel having menstrual blood is a good thing, isn’t it?" Zhu Pingniang suddenly brightened, her gaze falling on someone.

"That’s easy to say, but how will you do that..." Miss Lu said, following Zhu Pingniang’s gaze, suddenly freezing.

She saw Zhu Pingniang staring at Yun Qian.

In that instant, she understood Zhu Pingniang’s intention.

Miss Lu was speechless.

This is about... Utilizing Miss Yun?

Indeed, Yun Qian desires menstrual blood urgently because she wants a child...

Zhu Pingniang’s idea was straightforward: make those girls think even Yun Qian eagerly wants it, so it can’t be something bad — it sounds childish, but remember, Yun Qian is Xu Chang’an’s wife.

This idea would be more useful than imagined.

"Ms. Zhu, don’t mess around." Miss Lu’s eyelids twitched slightly.

"Don’t look at me like that, I haven’t said anything..." Zhu Pingniang said with a smile, clearly finding a solution, her mood brightened.

Only Yun Qian tilted her head, seemingly not understanding what they were cryptically discussing.

Wen Li didn’t quite understand either, but she didn’t expect to comprehend the conversation between Zhu Pingniang and Miss Lu; these two women aren’t normal in some way.

"Sister, you... should know what you’re doing, just don’t anger the young master." Miss Lu had no choice, then said: "Then the matter of menstrual blood... let’s leave it at that."

Since Yun Qian had been brought into it, what else could she say?

"Leave it at that? How can it end here?" Zhu Pingniang grunted; knowing Miss Lu’s dissatisfaction meant she would try to ease her inner resistance as much as possible, and speaking of the choices... what a lovely pear... no, example.

"Ah Li, you have your menstrual blood every month, right?" Zhu Pingniang asked Wen Li.

Wen Li nodded.

Even Junior Sister Yun had asked her this.

Her menstrual blood was indeed normal and had been normal for a long time, but she was puzzled by Zhu Pingniang’s somewhat uncertain ’tone’ when asking her.

It seemed having menstrual blood was quite inconceivable on her part?

Tsk.

Zhu Pingniang lowered her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.

She really didn’t know Wen Li well.

Wen Li was too much like a man, so when Zhu Pingniang asked, she really hesitated, fearing Wen Li might have severed the Spirit Road.

It’s good that it’s not.

Almost made a mistake...

"Well, it’s good that you have it." Zhu Pingniang coughed twice, feeling slightly awkward as she looked at Miss Lu: "See, even a girl with a temperament like Ah Li’s has it, no reluctance. What do you have to be dissatisfied about?"

"Alright." Miss Lu noticed Zhu Pingniang’s embarrassment.

Compared to earlier, the topic now was more normal; whether common girls or those from the Immortal Sect, if they’re close, they can’t avoid this topic—it truly feels like family talk.

"I..." Li Zhibai crossed her arms over her abdomen, contemplating, recalling: "Too much time has passed. Let me think... In the Twelfth Year of Xuming... Was I thirteen or fourteen... It was thirteen."

As memories of that era gradually filled her mind, Li Zhibai remembered she had her first menstruation at thirteen. Being from a scholarly family, she didn’t understand it, and secretly went to the medical hall to ask, which caused quite an amusing scene.

"Thirteen years old." Yun Qian looked at Li Zhibai: "I missed mine."
