Because it was the day when Su Wenyue returned home, the Han family got up early. However, the farmers had to go to the fields to work early, so they only got up a moment earlier. Su Wenyue and Han Yu set out on the road in the ox cart after breakfast. Because Han Yu had instructed, Chen Shuang deliberately avoided people and loaded the deer early and sent it to wait for them outside the village, to avoid being seen by others and causing gossip that would reach the ears of the Han family.
It was only then that Su Wenyue realized that Han Yu not only hunted pheasants and hares last night, but also caught deer. It seemed that he really cared about her. She felt relieved and smiled happily, "Thank you, Brother Chen."
"No, no, Ayu and I grew up together. This little thing is nothing. Ayu is not like me who is alone. He has such a big family. Sometimes it is not convenient to do things." Chen Shuang is just like his name, a very cheerful and generous person. He smiled and waved his hand.
Because Su Wenyue and the others still had to hurry on their way, they didn't chat much with Chen Shuang. After watching Chen Shuang leave, Han Yu looked at Su Wenyue thoughtfully with a deep gaze, which made Su Wenyue feel guilty and puzzled. She didn't know what she had done wrong to make Han Yu look at her with such a creepy look.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with my face?" Su Wenyue touched her face with a dry laugh.
"How do you know Chen Shuang? I remember that you had never been to Xiaohe Village before you married me, and you haven't been out of the house in the past two days. But from the way you looked just now, you seemed quite familiar with her, as if you had known Chen Shuang for a long time. I'm very curious."
If Chen Shuang wasn't a brother who grew up with him, Han Yu would have an absolute understanding and familiarity with Chen Shuang, and would know that there could be nothing between Chen Shuang and Su Wenyue. But this was even more strange, since they had never met before, how did Su Wenyue know Chen Shuang?
The smile on Su Wenyue's face froze. She managed to calm herself down with great difficulty and not let Han Yu see that something was wrong. In her heart, she was blaming herself for being careless. She said something was wrong that made Han Yu stare at her like that. It turned out that this was the problem.
In her previous life, because of Han Yu, Su Wenyue was very familiar with Chen Shuang, so she naturally used that familiar attitude, forgetting that she was a new daughter-in-law who had just entered the Han family not long ago and didn't know Han Yu at all. Such behavior seemed very strange, but Su Wenyue quickly found a reason for herself and said it calmly.
"What's so strange about this? Everyone in the village knows the relationship between you and Brother Chen. You are good brothers who grew up together. Even Baofu knows it. Of course, I know it too. Just now, you were talking to Brother Chen in a relaxed manner, not at all as cold as usual. The relationship between the two of you must be special. I guessed it at random. Do you really think I'm stupid? Let me tell you, I'm actually very smart!"
Su Wenyue pushed the matter onto her nephew Baofu. Baofu learned to read and write with her, so it was normal for him to tell her that Han Yu would believe it, right? Su Wenyue looked at Han Yu's expression while she spoke. Seeing that Han Yu was still half-believing and half-doubting, she felt helpless. This man was too shrewd and suspicious. He caught her as soon as she revealed the slightest flaw.
"What? What's wrong? I'm being so nice to Brother Chen because of you. Otherwise, do you think I'm happy to deal with you rough and stinky men? You don't know how to appreciate kindness!"
Su Wenyue said this unhappily, which made Han Yu feel that this attitude was a lot more normal. However, he still had doubts in his heart, but he couldn't find out what was wrong. Logically speaking, there was nothing wrong with Su Wenyue's explanation, but he just felt that something was wrong, and that there was always something wrong with Su Wenyue.
Sometimes Han Yu could even see a sense of mystery and vicissitudes in Su Wenyue. Although that feeling was fleeting, it made him feel that it really existed, which made it even more strange. She was obviously just a girl who was spoiled by her parents and grew up in the boudoir. Sometimes she was so naive and simple. Such a feeling appeared in her, which really made people feel very contradictory and aroused his desire to explore.
"Why are you still standing there? Looking at me like that, have you finally realized that I'm really beautiful? I told you, I'm by your side every day, how could you not notice? Are you embarrassed? Hehehe, I'm not kidding you anymore. We still have to hurry up. Hurry up, we haven't seen each other for so long, I miss my dad and mom so much!" Su Wenyue's eyes were red as she spoke, and no one knew how excited she was at the moment.
In her previous life, Su Wenyue had resentment towards her parents. In addition, she was not happy after marrying into the Han family. She became more and more resentful of her father who insisted on marrying her into the Han family. She also took her anger out on An who did not insist on stopping her. She did not go back to her parents' home on the three-day return visit, and later she went back to her parents' home even less often. Since she followed that man, she completely cut off contact with her parents' family, so she really hadn't seen Father Su and An for a very long time.
Han Yu didn't know the meaning of Su Wenyue's words. He thought that Su Wenyue was in the mentality of a little girl. She was spoiled by her parents since she was a child. Now that she is married, it is inevitable that she thinks about it. But only two or three days seemed like a long time, so she behaved like a little girl. He felt a little more pity for her and temporarily put aside the doubts in his heart.
"Okay, you're such a pampered girl. You've only been away from home for a short time and you already look like you're about to cry. Besides, we're not far away. At most, I can take you back to your parents' home more often in the future if you behave well." Han Yu is Han Yu. Even at this time, he did not forget to negotiate conditions with Su Wenyue.
Su Wenyue directly ignored Han Yu's conditions and asked Han Yu for a promise: "You must keep your word!"
"Okay, this isn't difficult. Sit tight, I'm getting on my way." Han Yu said as he twitched the whip in his hand. The old ox pulled the wooden-wheeled cart with a creaking sound. Compared with a horse-drawn carriage, the ox-drawn cart was slower and more unstable, and it was always shaking on the road. If he were going to the city on weekdays, Han Yu would rather walk faster, but today he was going to visit his wife's parents, and with his wife and the gifts on the cart, he had to travel slowly.
Su Wenyue's parents' home, the Su family, is neither far nor near from their Xinhe Village. It takes about two hours to drive there by ox cart, so even if they set out so early, they still don't arrive until 10:00 p.m.
"Master, Madam, the young lady is back, the young lady is back!"
