Chapter 1812: Chapter 1806: Women Should Have Their Own Careers
One has to admit, Qin Xue was quite successful in this regard. In front of her, Nangong Beiying seemed like a completely different person, though with others, she reverted to her usual self. However, change is always a good start.
Qin Xue didn’t have to take care of a child, so she felt quite relaxed the entire trip. After boarding the train, she sat with Nangong Beiying, and Qing Zhu joined them. There were many people in their carriage, including a pregnant woman with a boy. Seeing her big belly—both were large—she was carrying twins. Qin Xue wondered how she got through it all back then.
"What are you looking at? Hurry and put your things away," Nangong Beiying nudged Qin Xue.
"I’m looking at that expectant mother, and thinking about how I managed back then. From the moment I found out I was pregnant, I never stopped working. You wouldn’t believe it, I was practically a workaholic, getting people to collaborate to open a shop, designing clothes, working with factories, and I was busy all the way until delivery." Recalling that time felt like yesterday to Qin Xue, yet it had been so long.
"It’s absolutely the right choice for a woman to have her own career," Nangong Beiying agreed with Qin Xue. People needed their own career and independent income, otherwise, they’d be too passive.
"You’ll soon experience that hardship too. It really seems like we women have it too hard. Why isn’t it men who give birth? They should experience the ten months of pregnancy and the pain of childbirth," mused Qin Xue, feeling she had become too sentimental lately—something she never used to be.
Qin Xue simply thought she was just too tired, the recent events had her nerves strung too tight, and she didn’t think beyond that. It almost led to an accident later, but Qin Xue of now was unaware of it.
"Do you think men could give birth when even after a sex change operation they lose the ability to?" Nangong Beiying remarked, amused at Qin Xue’s random thoughts. If men could indeed give birth, she imagined women would be the happiest on earth.
"True, without a uterus, where would a baby develop? Without that free yet most expensive house, where would the baby live? Therefore, pregnancy and childbirth still fall to women." Qin Xue could only nod in agreement.
In this world, there are too few men who truly understand and empathize with women. Even in the future, when there’s childbirth pain simulation machines for men to experience childbirth pain, many still wouldn’t try it.
Some who do experience it, however, return home and forget about the woman who bore their child at death’s door.
Which is why, in the future, many women suggest placing such machines at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, so men could experience it before getting a marriage certificate.
Upon hearing this, Qin Xue could only chuckle, thinking if a man truly cares, he doesn’t need the experience to keep you in his heart. Conversely, if he doesn’t love you, no amount of such experiences would make him hold you dear, he’d still stray when he wants to.
All Qin Xue wanted to say was, men, please don’t bring HIV home to your wives, they’ve suffered enough already. Out of respect for the marital bond, please show some restraint.
Of course, not all men who cheat will contract such a disease; those are just lucky. Worldwide, many people contract HIV through sexual transmission annually, and many die from it, so protecting one’s health is also protecting the health of others.
"Xuexue, are you sick? Why do I feel you’ve been acting weird these past few days?" Nangong Beiying asked, noticing Qin Xue’s lack of energy, wondering if she wasn’t feeling well somewhere.
