Chapter 140 Practice
The days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day when Han Yu was leaving. Because Su Wenyue was pregnant with a child, Han Yu originally wanted to let Su Wenyue wait until the child in her belly was three months old before following him, but Su Wenyue did not want to continue to stay in the Han family. If he insists on following him now, Han Yu has nothing to do with Su Wenyue. The town he wants to go to is not too far from here, but he can get there in half a day. Let the doctor check his pulse to make sure that Su Wenyue's body can't bear it. So Han Yu packed up Su Wenyue's master and servant and took them away.
Han Yu only told Old Man Han and Mr. Yang about this before setting off. Old Man Han didn't have any objections as long as Su Wenyue was sure that her body could bear it, but Mr. Yang had a lot of opinions and just didn't agree. I didn't think so before, but now it seems that the fourth daughter-in-law is really not a peaceful person. She is still pregnant with a child. Why is she running around with men? Men are going to do big things, so wouldn’t it be a mess if a woman follows her? However, Mr. Han also understood Su Wenyue's temperament of being soft rather than tough, so he couldn't speak too harshly.
"Fourth daughter-in-law, listen to me, the child in your belly is only a month old. The first three months are the most important. There can be no mistakes. Besides, the fourth daughter is doing important things, not playing. If you go with me, I will have to take care of you. You are still a child now. You have to think about your man and your children and not be willful. "
Su Wenyue was really upset when she saw her mother-in-law repeatedly blocking her, but with her mother-in-law in front of her, Su Wenyue tried her best to be calm and reasonable.
"Don't worry, mother, the doctor has checked my pulse. The baby in my belly is fine. Besides, it's not too far away. It's only half a day's journey by carriage, so there won't be any problem. I'm just pregnant, and It’s not that I’m disabled, I can take care of myself, and I don’t need my husband to take care of me. Besides, I still have Xiao Xi with me. I can just tell Xiao Xi to do whatever I want. I won’t be tired.”
"Fourth daughter-in-law, why are you so stubborn? Xiao Xi is just an unmarried girl. Even if she is capable of many things and has never experienced it, your mother can still take care of you at home and ensure that you have a fat and healthy boy. Look at the men from other families going out to do things, and you don’t see their wives following them. You should be more sensible!" Yang's words already contained a hint of warning. If the fourth family's natal family background hadn't been so powerful, she wouldn't have been able to do anything about it. Siyou was so protective that she became less polite when speaking.
Su Wenyue pretended not to understand the hidden meanings of her mother-in-law's words. Anyway, as long as Han Yu didn't change his mind, no one could stop her.
"Don't worry, mother-in-law. My mother has already sent word that she will send a nanny who knows how to raise children to take care of me. You really don't have to worry. Besides, we have separated. How can I ask my mother-in-law to take care of my son?" Daughter-in-law’s principles.”
Seeing that Su Wenyue couldn't be explained, Yang became even more disinclined to see Su Wenyue. The anger in her heart could hardly be controlled, and the smile that managed to appear on her face was a little stiff.
Han Yu sighed. Sure enough, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies. Her daughter-in-law is so virtuous and kind, and she can't deal with his mother. In the past, Han Yu even admired how well they got along with each other. He could tell when something happened.
"Mom, don't worry about this. It's my intention to let Yueniang follow." Han Yu didn't want his wife to be embarrassed by his mother, so he stood up and took the responsibility on himself.
"Fourth brother, don't blindly protect your wife. Let her do everything as she pleases. Your wife is still young and has a bit of a temper. How can she take good care of my sweet grandson? I can't rest assured if she's not around to take care of her. "
No mother-in-law wants to see her son siding with her daughter-in-law. When Ms. Yang heard Han Yu speak in favor of Su Wenyue, she felt even more unbalanced.
"Mom, didn't Yueniang say that my mother-in-law sent a nanny who knows how to have children to take care of her? You don't have to worry about that. Besides, I really need Yueniang to come with me and help me. If not, I wouldn't be able to let her get pregnant. My children are running around with me, so I don’t care about my own children! Besides, I don’t feel at ease leaving Yueniang alone at home. Who knows when those people from the Jiang family will come looking for me. I’m lucky this time. Who knows next time? What will be the result!"
"Ask her to help you. How can she, a pregnant woman, help you? Yu'er, I think you are confused. Even if you have to make up a reason, you have to make up a decent one. Why are you two so unsatisfactory and being manipulated by women? , I thought you were different." Yang selectively left out the latter part, looking heartbroken.
Not to mention that Su Wenyue was nearby, even Han Yu felt a little pain in his head when he saw Yang like this. His mother used to be a very sensible person, how could she become such a temperament.
Although Su Wenyue was very dissatisfied, since Han Yu took over the conversation, she stood aside obediently and pretended not to interrupt, leaving everything to Han Yu. Han Yu didn't mean that she had to absolutely trust her husband-in-law. She now practices it.
"Mom, why do you think so? You are my own mother, and I can't lie to you! I went here this time directly from the eighth-grade official position, or the position I got with the help of my father-in-law. I am an official and a soldier. But it’s different. Even though I’m just a low-ranking official from the eighth grade, I still have social interactions. When the time comes, there will be things that I can’t do as a man, so I’ll have to rely on Yueniang to help me. Otherwise, how could I bring the women with me? In the past, could it be that your son was so useless in your eyes that he only thought about his children's personal affairs all day long?"
Yang didn't know there was such a reason. She said why her son would bring his daughter-in-law with him. It turned out to be such a reason. She didn't expect the Su family to be so capable. She originally thought that Master Su was just a wealthy businessman. He was just rich. She didn't expect that he could also help with the affairs of the court. Her son went to be an official.
Yang didn't bother about Su Wenyue going with her. She felt happy. Her son was the first official in the village. No matter how small the official position was, he was still an official. The fourth son had been promising since he was young. He would definitely be very successful in the future. Other people's sons went out to be soldiers, but her son went to be an official. Her son was always a head higher than others.
Su Wenyue thought that what Han Yu said was quite true. This son was not vague at all when he fooled his own mother. Yang wouldn't stop him this time. I'm afraid she was eager for her to go with him. In Yang's eyes, besides holding grandchildren, the most important thing was her son's future.
After saying goodbye to the Han family, Han Yu set off in a horse-drawn carriage with Su Wenyue and her servant. Because he was concerned about Su Wenyue's pregnancy and was afraid that the bumps would affect the baby in her belly, Han Yu deliberately slowed down the speed when driving the carriage. The journey that should have taken half a day actually took a whole day. Before dusk, the carriage stopped in front of a small courtyard.
