The matter was decided. When Su Lanxin and Su Lanfang learned the good news of Han Yu's promotion, they immediately came over to congratulate Han Yu and Su Wenyue.
"Cousin, congratulations! Your brother-in-law has been promoted. Your life will be better in the future." Su Lanxin said with a smile. She was really happy for Su Wenyue. After all, her cousin had treated her and her sisters sincerely during this period of time, and even gave them family love and warmth that they had never experienced before.
She used to think that it was an humiliation for her cousin to marry Han Yu. After all, with her cousin's status, she should be able to marry someone better. Later, when she saw that Han Yu was handsome, capable, and an official, she no longer had such an idea. After all, her uncle only helped her cousin's husband to get an eighth-rank position, but her cousin's husband was able to be promoted to the seventh-rank in such a short time with his own ability, which was already a great ability. Now he has been promoted again so quickly and has been transferred to the general camp in the provincial capital. He is appreciated by his superiors and has a bright future. At this rate of promotion, her cousin will be able to live a good life sooner or later.
Su Wenyue smiled and said, "He is only a sixth-rank commander. Although it is not a big deal, it is what my husband has earned with his own ability. I am naturally happy in my heart, but I have also figured it out now. Living a peaceful and happy life is all about peace and happiness. I don't force anything else. As long as your brother-in-law is fine and doesn't do anything dangerous."
Su Wenyue said this, knowing that this was unlikely. With Han Yu's personality, how could he hide behind and avoid danger for the sake of his future? Especially if the court was in complete chaos and a war broke out, Han Yu's personality would definitely make him lead his men to rush to the front. In his previous life, Han Yu was just a farmer without any backing. How did he climb up? He relied on his military exploits in the beginning. He was not only the prime minister of the new dynasty, but also a famous god of war.
"Don't worry, cousin. Your brother-in-law will take good care of his own safety for you and the three children."
"I hope so." Su Wenyue nodded but didn't say much.
"Cousin, we have lived here for a while. Lan Fang and I have discussed that we want to go back tomorrow. I'm sure mother must be worried about us after being away for so long."
The sisters Su Lanxin and Su Lanfang are both sensible people. They know that Han Yu is going to be transferred to the provincial capital, and their cousin will definitely go with him. They are probably busy with preparations during this period and have no time to take care of them. Besides, they have lived here for quite some time. Before, they accompanied their cousin because they thought Han Yu had not come back. Now it is time to go back to the Su family, otherwise their mother will blame them for being tactful.
Su Wenyue also knew this, so she did not keep her two cousins. She had a lot of things to do now, and it would be the same to wait until she settled down in the provincial capital and then bring her two cousins over.
"Okay, I want to go back to my parents' home too. I'll send you there tomorrow. After you've settled down in the provincial capital in a few days, I'll take you over to live there." Su Wenyue hadn't been back to her parents' home for a long time, so it was a good opportunity to send her two cousins back. Since she could explain things to her aunt in person, her aunt would definitely not make things difficult for her two cousins.
Su Wenyue knew that the cousin of the Pei family was not a good person, especially after hearing some things that Lan Xin and Lan Fang said about the cousin. Pei Yuhan said that she came to her aunt because her stepmother was unkind, but she did not act like a guest at all. Although she cried all day and shed tears at the slightest provocation, she was very domineering and never showed mercy when bullying Lan Xin and Lan Fang. Lan Xin and Lan Fang had lived with her for such a long time, Pei Yuhan would definitely stir up trouble in front of her aunt. Since she had taken the people over, Su Wenyue always did things well from beginning to end, so she naturally could not let Lan Xin and Lan Fang be blamed by her aunt for this, and she had some things to discuss with her father and eldest brother when she returned to her mother's home.
"My cousin is so busy every day. There is no need for her to go back to her parents' home just for us. We can deal with mother and cousin. My cousin doesn't have to worry. We grew up in the back house and have been accustomed to these little tricks. We are just too lazy to argue with cousin Pei. She is not that useless!" In order to reassure Su Wenyue, Su Lanxin and Su Lanfang did not mind exposing their true side in front of Su Wenyue and exchanging sincerity for sincerity. They all knew that their cousin was good to them.
Su Wenyue nodded, knowing that Lanxin and Lanfang were not as simple as they seemed. One of them was a concubine, and the other was unknown in the harem, but she raised her own prince. It was not something that ordinary people could do. However, Lanxin and Lanfang were willing to show their true side in front of her, which made Su Wenyue very happy. Even though she knew it in her heart, it was different that Lanxin and Lanfang were willing to show it to her, which meant that her care and efforts these days were not in vain, and the two cousins knew it was good.
"After all, you are still two little girls. Cousin knows that you have your own plans, but at this age, you should be well cared for. I am not doing this just for you. I have other things to discuss with Dad and Big Brother. Don't worry about these. Since you have to go back tomorrow, let the maid help you pack your things."
Su Wenyue recalled, "I made a few more sets of clothes for you last time. I was really busy. Although I designed the clothes, I didn't have time to do it myself. I had to ask the embroiderer to make them for me. But the embroiderer's skills are very good. The clothes have been made and sent to me. You can see if you like them and try them on to see if there is anything wrong. That way, the embroiderer can make changes as soon as possible."
As Su Wenyue was speaking, Nanny Li had already brought the clothes over. Lan Xin and Lan Fang were naturally happy when they saw them, but they also felt a little uneasy and worried, and even a little guilty. Their cousin had done so much for them, but they had nothing to give in return.
"Cousin, you made so many clothes for us sisters, how can this be good?"
"What's wrong with that? I also made you two sets of jewelry, just right to match the clothes. But you will be leaving tomorrow, so it won't be delivered soon. I'll send it to you when it's ready. If you can settle down in the city in time, I'll take you there to celebrate the New Year."
Hearing that their cousin had made jewelry for them, Lan Xin and Lan Fang were even more reluctant to accept it. Su Wenyue knew what the two cousins were thinking: "Okay, don't refuse. Just accept the things I give you. I'm no different from others. I'm your sister. Isn't it normal for a sister to love a younger sister?"
As soon as Su Wenyue said this, Su Lanxin and Su Lanfang's eyes became red. Even if she was their biological sister, she would be no better than this. They secretly swore in their hearts that they would treat their cousin as their biological sister in the future.
