238. Chapter 238: Pushing the Limits



"Madam, if you don't want to go, Lord Li and our Lord are not on good terms. The two families have never had any contact before. Now that our Lord is not at home, they have sent an invitation. I'm afraid they don't have any good intentions." Nanny Li said worriedly. She didn't know much about Han Yu's going to suppress the bandits, but she knew some inside stories. So she was more concerned about the Li family, afraid that the Li family would do something bad to Su Wenyue.

"It's only now that they sent me the invitation that I want to go, otherwise I'll lose the battle. Besides, I want to see what they want to do. Do they think I'm easy to bully because my husband is out?"

Su Wenyue did not follow Li Ma's advice. She knew that Li Ma was worried that the Li family would do something bad to her. However, in broad daylight, in front of so many people, the Li family did not dare to do anything to her. At most, they would verbally attack her. She was not really afraid of this. Besides, almost all the wives of officials here would go to the banquets held by the Li family. She not only wanted to listen to whether there were any rumors, but also to show an attitude.

Even though Su Wenyue had not been out much these days, she knew that these people had been talking behind her back, especially about Han Yu's going to suppress the bandits. It was a hot potato, so no one was willing to take it over. If Han Yu failed to suppress the bandits, he would be blamed and dismissed from his post, which would be the least of his punishment. If he really went to suppress the bandits, those bandits were so fierce and had internal support, he might not come back, and he would not know how to advance or retreat. I'm afraid many people would laugh at their family.

It's not that Su Wenyue is acting on impulse and has to save face, but if you are too weak and give in on some things, people will think you are bullyable. Since Han Yu has embarked on this path, there will inevitably be such times in the future. She can stay in the rear and protect herself and the children, so Han Yu can work hard without any worries.

"Madam, the master has gone out to suppress the bandits. If something happens to you, what will happen to the children? If nothing else, for the sake of the children, Madam, please be patient for a while." Madam Li was obviously

"Madame Li, I'm not going to the banquet just to get angry. This is not something that can be solved by giving in. Even if I give in this time, they will still come to bully us later. We won't be able to give in then. On the contrary, because we showed our weakness first and are at a disadvantage, they will only become more aggressive."

After hearing what Su Wenyue said, Nanny Li felt a little ashamed. After all, she was too narrow-minded and only thought about how to protect herself, which resulted in her failing. She was not as far-sighted as the Madam who saw things through. So, although she was worried, she couldn't stop the Madam from attending the banquet.

"Madam, why don't you take Miss Lan Xin and Miss Lan Fang with you? Although Miss Lan Xin and Miss Lan Fang are only concubines of the Marquis' Mansion, just the two words 'Marquis' Mansion' can shock many people, letting them know that Madam is not without other support besides you, and they naturally dare not act presumptuously anymore." Nanny Li was really worried and only wanted to give Su Wenyue more help.

Su Wenyue still rejected Nanny Li's suggestion. After all, Nanny Li came from the Su family, and sometimes she had a different starting point when thinking about things.

"No, we'll go by ourselves. Since I've married into the Han family and become a Han family woman, I have to stand on the Han family's side and can't always rely on my parents to solve problems, unless there is really no other way. I hope you remember this. As for Lan Xin and Lan Fang, let them help me take care of the children at home. Although they are still young, they are still masters, and they are from a marquis's mansion. Their upbringing is different from that of the ladies of ordinary families, and they can handle ordinary things."

Lan Xin and Lan Fang's identities were not completely useless. Su Wenyue was worried differently from Li Ma. She was not afraid that those people would make things difficult for her in the Li family, but that they would take advantage of her absence to attack the three children. Given the viciousness of those people, since they could frame Han Yu like this, such a thing was not impossible. Lan Xin and Lan Fang grew up in a big mansion. Those tricks in the backyard were nothing to them. With them at home to look after the three children, she felt much more at ease. If things didn't work out, they could still take the three children to the Su family.

Nanny Li heard a warning in Su Wenyue's words and became alert. She was sent here by the Su family and was already a member of the Han family, but sometimes she still regarded herself as a servant of the Su family and considered things from the perspective of the Su family. It was indeed inappropriate. After all, she had been in the Su family for so many years and it was difficult for her to adapt. If it were not for the lady's reminder, she would not have woken up. It was time to correct this problem completely.

Su Wenyue felt satisfied when she saw Nanny Li's expression of being taught. A smart person is a smart person. There is no need to explain things too clearly. They will understand everything at a glance.

"Thank you for your advice, Madam. I have been too careless these days. I will remember your teachings and always put the Han family first. I will never make the same mistake again."

"I'm glad you understand. I don't mean to blame you. After all, the Su family is also my mother's family. It's the place where I was raised since I was a child. How could I not care about it? It's just that you must know the limits of some things. Nanny Li is an old woman and has experienced a lot. Now that you understand this, I believe you will do a good job."

The next day, Su Wenyue went out and took care of the children first, and gave instructions to sisters Su Lanxin and Su Lanfang before leaving.

"Don't worry, cousin. We will take good care of the three little ones. You should also be careful. Few of those ladies are worry-free."

"I know, don't worry, as long as you help me take good care of the three little ones, I will have solved my worries."

Because the situation was different, she couldn't make any mistakes at this time to avoid being used as evidence to threaten Han Yu. For safety reasons, Su Wenyue sent someone to the farm to call Xiaoxi back yesterday and brought two guards with her. Most of the people stayed at home to protect her cousin and the two children.

Just as she was about to go out, she saw Su Hengyi and Feng Ruolin coming over. Su Wenyue's face lit up with joy, this was really like a pillow being given to someone just when they were sleepy.

"Brother and sister-in-law, why are you here?"

"Of course we came for you. We only found out last night that the Li family wanted to invite you to a banquet. We were afraid that something might go wrong, so we rushed to you before dawn. After rushing all the way, we finally caught up with you. Let your eldest brother escort you to the Li family. I will stay at home to take care of your two cousins ​​and the children, so there will be no omissions. My maid will also go with you."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Before Su Hengyi could say anything, Feng Ruolin explained everything in a series of words. Originally, she wanted to go to the banquet with Su Wenyue in person, after all, it was not easy for Su Hengyi, a grown man, to enter the inner house. But thinking it would not be a good idea for her to follow him, she asked the maid beside her to follow Su Wenyue and protect her safety.
