Chapter 151: This Person Really Is

Translator: 549690339

A career-minded man who could say such words clearly held her dear in his heart. Su Wenyue felt a warmth inside, and the various annoyances of the banquet seemed less irritating. Besides, she was not the type to shrink back at the least sign of trouble. She had long planned to support Han Yu from behind, and she wasn’t about to lose her nerve now. She had only been slightly emotional earlier.

“It’s nothing, just that some women are quite annoying, always picking on others to show off themselves. I really don’t know what they’re thinking. But who am I, Su Wenyue? Could they really bully me? It’s not that I can’t handle them; I just don’t want to bother with them, and certainly not scared of them!”

Su Wenyue spoke assertively, in the manner of a spoiled Miss, clearly not wanting to worry anyone, yet this only made Han Yu more fond of her. He hugged the little one tightly in his arms.

“Wife, you’ve been aggrieved following me.” Han Yu felt that being with his wife made him more and more emotional. Having such a little creature by his side really softened his heart and made her hard to let go of.

Such words from Han Yu indeed made Su Wenyue feel a bit uncomfortable; it seemed he truly saw her as a delicate bunny: “Alright, enough about being aggrieved. I haven’t lacked in clothes or food. Among the women in our circle, I live the best life. My husband is considerate, I have loyal servants, and there are no troubling matters at home. It’s only a matter of socializing a bit when going out. Where’s the grievance in that? Husband, don’t see me as so useless!”

Feeling her dissatisfaction, her bright eyes clearly conveyed the message: You don’t trust me!

Seeing his wife this way, Han Yu lost all negative emotions and chuckled at her. She was clearly a little rabbit but occasionally turned into a little fox, pretending to be a fierce wolf, which made her seem all the more ferocious. This feeling was just too cute and made one want to cuddle her fiercely. Still, fearing his little wife would bristle, Han Yu held back.

“Yes, my wife is the most capable. Having such a competent and virtuous wife is truly my great fortune in three lifetimes!”

Su Wenyue gave Han Yu a look: “Can’t you talk properly? Flattering me is useless. If you dare follow those rotten men and, upon getting rich, bring home one concubine after another, I’ll divorce you, hear me?”

Having seen many such cases, Su Wenyue felt it necessary to warn Han Yu in advance to let him know her limits. Otherwise, if he really brought home a concubine someday, it would be upsetting. Although in her previous life she had been a concubine, in this life she still felt no affection for such creatures. Even if some were forced by circumstances, a concubine was a threat to the love between husband and wife.

“I heard you. I promise it’ll only be you from now on. Never mention ‘divorce’ again. Since you’ve married me, in this life you are Han Yu’s person, alive as my person and dead as my ghost. Don’t even think about escaping!” Han Yu embraced his wife, his voice carrying an undeniable assertiveness that Su Wenyue quite appreciated.

When it came to sending a gift to the county magistrate’s wife, Han Yu went to the study room and brought back a box, handing it over to Su Wenyue.

“What’s this?” Su Wenyue asked Han Yu with a questioning look instead of opening it.

“This is all of my property. It’s what I saved before, plus the silver I earned from hunting in the mountains before leaving home. I gave Father and Mother ten silver coins for household expenses, and some were used for rent and social interactions. The rest is all here, and now it’s all in your hands, Wife. Use the silver from here if you need to buy anything, and don’t touch your dowry.”

“You’re handing over the whole financial reins to me!” Hearing Han Yu say this, Su Wenyue smiled and took the box, opening it to see quite a lot of silver inside. She counted nearly two hundred taels—Han Yu’s savings were not bad, being able to save up so much silver just by hunting.

However, Su Wenyue had no intention of using this silver to prepare the gift. The imperial court had not yet fallen into chaos, and she remembered the currency reform was supposed to happen around New Year’s. With the currency not devalued, money was still very valuable and could buy a lot. She needed to be thrifty and couldn’t just spend it all carelessly.

“How about I send an embroidery screen to the county magistrate’s wife? I’ve embroidered quite a bit recently, and some haven’t even been sold yet. There’s a decent craftsman in the Su Family’s store. I will have Xiao Xi take the design over, draw up a pattern, and get the carpenter to mount it according to my wishes. An exquisitely-made embroidery screen is worth several dozen taels of silver at least, not to mention my embroidery is top-notch—better than the embroiderers at home. This way I save money, and the gift will be dignified. Let’s do it this way.”

Su Wenyue talked to herself, already deciding on the gift for the county magistrate’s wife and planning to handle future gifts in the same manner.

“Husband, what do you think? This idea is really good, isn’t it?” Su Wenyue felt proud of her great idea but then noticed that Han Yu was daydreaming.

Han Yu had indeed spaced out. He had thought all along that his wife’s intense dedication to embroidery was because she liked it, but only now did he realize she was doing it to earn silver. A delicate Miss working so hard for silver, if not for this home, what else could it be for? His heart shook again.

“Husband, what are you thinking? Tell me quickly, is my idea good or not?” Su Wenyue, dissatisfied with his daydreaming, shook him forcefully a few times, looking for praise.

“Of course, it’s good. My wife is the smartest. But from now on, you’re not allowed to embroider so hard. Even if I’m not the most capable, I, Han Yu, will not let my wife wear herself out earning silver. Providing for the family is for me to worry about. All you need to do is live happily. When our child is born, just take good care of the child. Don’t fret about anything else; I’m here.” Han Yu said half coaxingly and half commandingly.

Su Wenyue, upon hearing Han Yu, realized she had said too much. Yet she wasn’t as noble as he imagined. Earning silver was both a joy and a way to have something to fall back on. Of course, she had no intention of correcting this beautiful misunderstanding, letting Han Yu continue to believe it, as men value you more when they know what you have put in.

“Did you hear that? If I see you disobeying, you know there will be a penalty. Remember the rules I set for you, hm?” Han Yu, thinking his wife hadn’t agreed, naturally resorted to some tactics. His words carried an obvious threat, yet with an undertone of something else.

Su Wenyue, listening to Han Yu, recalled those so-called rules and punishments and turned shyly red, hitting him a few times with her fists in frustration. This man, really! 𝖋𝖗𝖊𝖊𝔴𝖊𝖇𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑.𝖈𝖔𝖒

“You’re a bad man! A big bully!”
