Translator: 549690339
Su Wenyue prided herself on trusting Han Yu, but sometimes, some things weren’t as simple as trust alone. When too many other elements got mixed in, thoughts could become complicated. In some ways, it wasn’t that Su Wenyue didn’t trust Han Yu, but rather she lacked confidence in her own status in his heart compared to his parents who raised him.
Xiao Xi saw that her mistress’s face looked troubled and felt somewhat worried. She had been by her side throughout the entire affair, and was acutely aware of the details. The importance of both her parents and her daughter-in-law placed her in a dilemma. She was uncertain about which side the master would ultimately take, but regardless of what she thought inside, Xiao Xi had to advise Su Wenyue to stay calm. She mustn’t let negative emotions affect the child in her belly. Presumably, the master would consider this as well.
“Madam, don’t overthink it. The master usually treats you quite well. He definitely won’t take the old lady’s word for it. Besides, you’re pregnant with his child. He’s bound to stand by your side.”
“It’s not that I’m overthinking, it’s just that they are his parents after all. Even if Han Yu stands by my side, I’m afraid he’ll still harbor thoughts inside, feeling that I’m not respectful enough to my mother-in-law. It’s also possible that Han Yu shares the same opinion as his father-in-law and mother-in-law, thinking I shouldn’t have taken in Aunt Feng and her child. I have my reasons for what I do, but some things simply can’t be said right now. Doesn’t the fact that he thought of going to his mother’s place first reveal certain issues?”
In the end, Su Wenyue was truly bothered by the fact that Han Yu had not come to her immediately, but instead had gone to Mrs. Yang’s room. After all, under normal circumstances, Su Wenyue would not do this. It was a rare occasion that she sent a servant girl to wait for him, yet Han Yu hadn’t come over.
Han Yu had no idea that his actions would give rise to so many thoughts in his daughter-in-law. When he noticed that she had sent a servant girl over, he knew there must be some trouble at home. After making sure his daughter-in-law was alright and seeing the servant girl hesitating, he guessed there must be a conflict between his wife and his mother.
This morning, before he left, he had a heart-to-heart talk with his mother specifically to prevent her from making things difficult for his daughter-in-law. She had agreed readily, and even if she was uncomfortable, she shouldn’t have made a fuss. He surmised something must have cropped up in the meantime.
Han Yu did not know what had caused the conflict, but he had a rough idea, so he decided to see his mother first, hoping to resolve the matter with her. His intention naturally leaned toward supporting his daughter-in-law.
As Han Yu expected, Mrs. Yang indeed poured out a litany of complaints to him about Su Wenyue, criticizing her faults and especially the matter of Feng Susu and her son moving in, to which she was adamantly opposed. Even though Mrs. Su had said it was her dowry, the house still belonged to her son.
“Yuer, I know your wife comes from a wealthy family, and she may be a bit more delicate than the average daughter-in-law. Even if there are some things we’re dissatisfied with, we’ve been putting up with it. But she’s disrespecting me far too much, completely disregarding me. Your wife scorns my meddling, but am I not doing it for your sake, without coveting a penny of yours? Some of the things I said aren’t wrong. Your wife is going overboard, who brings outsiders into their home like that? Who knows whether that mother and son are good people? You need to talk to your wife. I’m absolutely against this.”
“Fourth child, normally I don’t want to interfere in matters between you and your wife, but this time she’s truly out of line. You should advise her, don’t just spoil her. Ultimately, the major decisions at home still have to be made by you, the man of the house!” Madam Yang said, after which Old Man Han also surprisingly added a few words.
Seeing that even his father was speaking up, Han Yu knew his wife must have taken a very firm stance this time. Regarding Feng Susu and her child, although his wife hadn’t informed him beforehand, she had been treating the mother and son rather differently before, so there must be a special reason for it.
By the time Han Yu left Madam Yang’s place, an hour had passed, and when he returned to their room and pushed open the door, he found it completely dark inside. If it weren’t for Xiao Xi and Grandma Chen guarding the door, Han Yu might have thought that Su Wenyue wasn’t there.

The silence indicated that the situation was more serious than he had anticipated. His wife seldom behaved like this; she would usually just throw a tantrum. Today, she must’ve been truly upset. Han Yu didn’t believe his mother had the ability to best his wife. It was likely his mother said something excessively hurtful that made his wife so angry.
“Why is the room so dark? Why isn’t the lamp lit? Madam’s pregnant; everything should be handled with care. How can we leave her alone in the room? What kind of service is this?” Han Yu looked at Grandma Chen and the others at the door disapprovingly, clearly dissatisfied with their actions. Even if his wife was upset, the servants should have persuaded her, rather than leaving the mistress in danger.
Had Han Yu reprimanded the servants like this on an ordinary day, Su Wenyue would have spoken up in their defense by now. But today, there was no response from her. Han Yu couldn’t help but feel a sense of anxiety as he walked swiftly to the bed. Just then, the servants lit the lamp, and he saw a lump under the covers. Pulling back the blanket, Su Wenyue’s back was revealed.
Han Yu carefully turned her around, only to find his delicate wife with tears streaming down her face, her eyes swollen from crying, which made his heart twinge.
“Wife, what’s wrong? Why are you crying so hard? Have you been wronged?” Han Yu hadn’t expected his wife to be so emotional. Had he known, he would have come back sooner, rather than trying to mend the rift between his mother and wife first.
“Why do you even care about me at all? In the end, you’re all family, and I’m just an outsider!” Su Wenyue attempted to push Han Yu away but was held firmly in his embrace. After a few futile shoves, she turned her face away as tears continued to flow unchecked.
Inside, Su Wenyue felt hurt, but more than that, she wanted Han Yu to know she had been greatly wronged. Since Madam Yang had gotten ahead by complaining first, Su Wenyue wasn’t without her own strategy, and this tactic was definitely effective against Han Yu. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
“Wife, listen to me. Tell me your grievances, and stop crying. Otherwise, our baby will be sad too,” Han Yu was distressed and confused as he frantically tried to console her.
“You only care about the child in your belly, not about my feelings at all. You leave me alone at home to be bullied by your mother, and you never heard what she said about me. It’s bad enough that she always criticizes me, but she also called me a house-ruining wife. Clearly, you brought those servants, yet she shifts the blame to me. I’ve been so wronged… and she says I’m being delicate, saying I still have the airs of a young rich lady. How am I being delicate? If she really despises me that much, she might as well divorce me, after all…”
Su Wenyue hadn’t finished speaking when the expression on Han Yu’s face darkened, “After all, what?”
