“Mom, I perceive that having kids is a matter of destiny. Each
Grandfather and Father are insightful males, and they’re correct in judging individuals. Since they each assume extremely of Han Yu, I belief their judgment. If Han Yu actually is dependable, he won’t simply fail me, no matter whether or not we’ve got kids or not. If he seems to be fickle, I nonetheless have my mom’s household to depend on. In that case, Father and Mom should assist me. In any case, it was Daddy’s poor judgment that bought us right here, hehe.”
Su Wenyue playfully caught to her weapons, however she agreed together with her mom’s phrases in her coronary heart. A girl finally wants a toddler by her aspect. Contemplating that she turned pregnant six months after marriage in her earlier life, she believed this life could be the identical, so she wasn’t in a rush.
“You! I’m being severe right here. Males are unreliable. Of their eyes, their careers and heirs are at all times a very powerful. Even when Mr. Han actually is a good man, he would nonetheless worth having heirs,” stated Mrs. An, seeing that her daughter was nonetheless detached. However she didn’t insist additional. Since her daughter had solely simply married, it was considerably early to speak about this matter. Heirs have been typically a matter of future. When the time comes, a toddler will come naturally.
“Mom, Youthful Sister has returned. Let me check out her. Has she modified after being married for just a few days, or is she nonetheless the identical annoying little lady?” Su Hengxuan hadn’t but entered, however his voice carried in, stuffed with pleasure.
Su Wenyue’s face brightened too, trying eagerly on the doorway, however she retorted, “Mom, have a look at Elder Brother, calling me an annoying little lady proper in entrance of you. He’s the one who’s annoying, not caring in any respect about his youthful sister.”
“Oh, the third little one, I’ve lastly caught you bad-mouthing me in entrance of Mom. Since I’m such an uncaring elder brother, I assume a sure somebody doesn’t need the field of items I simply introduced again,” Su Hengxuan stepped in, greeting Mrs. An.
“Mom!…” As a substitute of asking Su Hengxuan for items, Su Wenyue clung to Mrs. An’s sleeve to petulantly plead her case.
How embarrassing, a daughter who’s married nonetheless performing coquettishly together with her mom,” Su Hengxuan stated, pinching Su Wenyue’s barely puffing cheeks with delight. They have been simply as tender and clean as at all times. Su Wenyue, her eyebrows knitted and eyes obtrusive, couldn’t stand it. Her brother had this odd behavior, ever since they have been younger, to pinch her cheeks, and he hadn’t modified to at the present time.
“Hengxuan, actually, you’re all grown up and nonetheless like to tease your youthful sister. Mr. Han is outdoors, have you ever met him?” Mrs. An had already largely accepted Han Yu in her coronary heart, however she nonetheless referred to him as ‘Mr. Han the teen,’ considerably hesitant on account of Han Yu’s background.
“I met him on my means residence. I had a seat at Father’s place earlier than coming right here.”
“Mom, that man is your son-in-law. Why do you retain referring to him as ‘Mr. Han the teen?’ So impersonal. Whereas Han Yu’s household background isn’t nice, he’s a good individual. Don’t look down on him like that. What’s true in a single decade might change within the subsequent. Han Yu is bold, and he will certainly make one thing of himself. In the long run, he’ll make your daughter proud.”
Though Su Wenyue spoke nicely of Han Yu, she genuinely believed he had the power to match her reward and needed her household to deal with him higher. In any case, he had been protecting of her, and he or she appreciated that.
Earlier than Mrs. An might reply, the at all times spoiled Su Hengxuan couldn’t assist however sound a bit snarky, “Certainly, a daughter invariably turns in the direction of her husband’s family. She’s solely been married just a few days, and he or she’s already talking in favor of one other man. Since Han Yu married our treasured gem, he must be ready for us to look at him. Why are you defending him so? It’s not like we’re going to eat him up.”
“Brother, why are you being like this? If you happen to maintain this up, I actually received’t pay you any thoughts.”
Su Hengxuan shrugged nonchalantly, “You say that each time, no novelty in any respect.
“Alright, each of you’re grown-ups now but nonetheless bickering. Don’t you are worried about being laughed at?” Regardless of her phrases, Mrs. An’s face confirmed a touch of amusement, watching her kids quibble in a means that eased her coronary heart.
“By the best way, Hengxuan, didn’t you say you’d be residence by this morning on the newest? It’s nearly midday. Did one thing occur on the best way?” Mrs. An inquired about her son’s delayed return.
When the dialog turned to severe issues, Su Hengxuan turned solemn, “There was a minor incident. A servant dared to betray their masters and deceive each superiors and subordinates, inflicting some hassle. It took me a while to cope with the individuals and the state of affairs earlier than returning.”
“That’s good to listen to,” Mrs. An was nicely conscious of her son’s capabilities. Such minor issues have been inside his potential to deal with, so she didn’t inquire additional.
However to the aspect, Su Wenyue, upon listening to the phrases ‘a servant who betrayed their masters,’ all of the sudden remembered one thing. But contemplating her mom’s and brother’s attitudes in the direction of Han Yu, she hesitated to talk up. Initially, she had supposed to maintain quiet concerning the hassle Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Wang had precipitated her. Nonetheless, the protection of the Su Household was extra important, and conserving such a treacherous servant would undoubtedly be a catastrophe.
“Mom, Second Brother, there’s one thing I have to let you know. It has nothing to do with Han Yu, so please don’t blame him. In any case, in a big household, there’ll at all times be one or two rotten apples,” Su Wenyue prefaced to absolve Han Yu earlier than discussing the matter, hoping her mom wouldn’t misunderstand as earlier than.
When Su Hengxuan heard his youthful sister handle him as Second Brother, he knew she was severe and stopped the teasing, ready silently for her to disclose the problem. As as to whether he would blame Han Yu, that will rely upon what had transpired.
Mrs. An grew impatient, understanding her daughter wouldn’t communicate of trivial issues, “What’s the matter? Get to the purpose.”
Su Wenyue didn’t rush to clarify however as a substitute took a white silk handkerchief from her sleeve and supplied it, “Mom, do you acknowledge this handkerchief?”
Mrs. An examined it and replied, “In fact, I acknowledge it. Might I not acknowledge my very own daughter’s handiwork? Isn’t this the handkerchief you embroidered? However what does this should do with something?”
Su Wenyue nodded after which recounted the Tea ceremony incident, altering some particulars to downplay her personal function. Mrs. An, expert in managing yard affairs, instantly understood the implications. Because the story unfolded, her expression grew darker, and Su Hengxuan felt the same anger, clenching his fists on the considered his sister being bullied.
Mrs. An by no means hid the affairs of the yard from her sons; typically, she would even intentionally expose them to make sure her sons have been conscious of the scheming that might happen there, stopping them from being outwitted by others. So Su Hengxuan additionally understood the state of affairs utterly.
“Outrageous! These despicable girls, daring to deal with my sister like this.. Do they assume the Su Household is to be trifled with!”
