376. Chapter 376 What is the purpose



Su Wenyue's words were more of an explanation to Xing'er than to Nanny Li. After saying this, Su Wenyue saw that Xing'er's expression in her arms was visibly more relaxed.

Su Wenyue felt a little guilty. She had been busy recently and had neglected her three children. Especially Xing Ge'er was not an ordinary child, so she had to pay more attention to him in the future.

When Nanny Li heard what Su Wenyue said, her face changed. She asked why the lady had suddenly changed. She thought the lady did not seem like an ungrateful person, so this was the reason. Nanny Li was not someone who had never seen the world, so she naturally understood the danger involved. She was happy for the lady, but also a little worried.

"Madam, in this case, I will go and arrange the affairs of the mansion right away. Some things need my personal supervision to ensure I am at ease, lest anything go wrong." Nanny Li wanted to persuade Su Wenyue to change her mind just now, so she didn't pay attention to that side. The situation is different now, so she can't be at ease with that mess, so she asked for permission to supervise it personally.

Half an hour later, Su Wenyue set off on time with her three children. They had spread the word that they were going to the farm. They took all the important things in the mansion with them, as well as all the men, leaving only a few guards behind. They headed to the farm in a mighty procession.

The carriage stopped halfway. Su Wenyue's eyes moved slightly and she lifted the curtain: "What's going on? Why did the carriage stop?"

Su Wenyue asked in confusion, and immediately a servant came over to report: "Madam, there is a carriage that broke down in the middle of the road ahead, blocking our way. The road is a bit narrow, and we can't pass unless the carriage moves out of the way."

"Then find a way to move the carriage away. We can't just leave it blocking the road." Su Wenyue seemed a little dissatisfied.

"The butler has already sent someone to negotiate with the owner of the carriage. However, the carriage is loaded with a lot of heavy objects, and this section of the road is a bit narrow, so it will take some time to move it." The servant explained. In just a short while, the butler had already negotiated with the owner of the carriage, and came over to reply to Su Wenyue, saying the same thing.

Su Wenyue seemed a little annoyed, but she didn't blame anyone after all. It was not the housekeeper's responsibility, and no one could predict what would happen on the road.

"Forget it, let them hurry up. It's not a good idea to delay like this. It's getting late." Su Wenyue said as she looked around. There seemed to be a farmhouse not far away. Just as she was about to say something, the housekeeper seemed to understand what Su Wenyue meant and spoke first.

"Madam, I see that it will take some time for the carriage to move away. Madam, you must be tired after sitting in the carriage for so long. Why don't you find a place to rest and eat something first?"

Su Wenyue nodded: "That's fine, let the housekeeper arrange it."

The butler received the order and immediately rode his horse to the family's house to make arrangements first. Su Wenyue and the others followed in a carriage. When they arrived, the people inside had already come out to greet them and entertained the distinguished guests very warmly.

Su Wenyue felt something was not right. Although there was nothing wrong with the couple's appearance and clothing, she always felt that something was wrong, as if something was missing. Su Wenyue hesitated immediately. It would be fine if she was alone, but she had three children with her. Even though there were so many people around her, she still felt it was not appropriate. She did not dare to take the risk with the children, especially at this critical moment.

Nanny Li and the wet nurse followed Su Wenyue with the child. Qiluo was also protecting Su Wenyue closely. When Su Wenyue stopped, they also stopped. When Qiluo saw Su Wenyue like this, she frowned slightly, as if she realized something was wrong.

"Madam, please come in and take a seat. Our house is small and simple. Please don't mind. Tea is already prepared inside. Please go in and have a rest." The lady saw Su Wenyue staying at the door and not going in. She seemed a little anxious. Although she didn't show it on her face, Su Wenyue still noticed it from the woman's subtle movements.

"Are you farmers here?" Su Wenyue asked casually, with a look of disdain on her face, acting like a noble lady, but secretly alert in her heart, signaling Qiluo with her eyes to protect the child.

"Yes, I have been living here all my life. It's rare for me to see a distinguished guest. It's really my great honor that Madam comes to visit me." When the man heard Su Wenyue ask this, he answered enthusiastically, with a fawning look on his face, without any sign of nervousness, which made people look at her with new eyes. On weekdays, Su Wenyue had also met some farmers. For example, when she was just the wife of a deputy lieutenant in Xinluo Town, those farmers were nervous and restrained when they saw her, not to mention that her current status is much higher than before, and her dress and other aspects are more grand than before.

Yes, Su Wenyue knew what was wrong. This family of farmers did not look like ordinary farmers at all. Ordinary farmers would of course be afraid from the bottom of their hearts when they see an official, no matter how high his rank was, and would look trembling with fear. This couple was not like that, they were so calm. Either they were ignorant or they had no fear in their hearts. This couple did not look very smart, so it was obviously the latter. Moreover, the couple's hands were not right. They were too white and did not look like the hands of farmers who worked frequently.

Su Wenyue noticed the problem and became less anxious. Instead, she was guessing the identity of this farmer's family. Who were they and why did they send them? Did they want to capture her and the child to threaten Han Yu, or was there some other reason?

"Forget it, I won't go in and sit. This room looks shabby, and there's a strange smell in it. I really can't stand the smell. I'd better go back to the carriage. I think things over there have been almost dealt with." Su Wenyue said as she was about to go back. The guards in the mansion received Su Wenyue's hint and stood guard vigilantly on the side.

"Madam, wait a minute!" When the peasant couple saw Su Wenyue was about to go back, they didn't care about anything else and hurriedly chased after her, trying to stop Su Wenyue. Now, not only Su Wenyue, but everyone noticed that something was wrong with the couple, and they protected Su Wenyue and the child in the middle.

The housekeeper stopped the couple in front and shouted, "Who are you? Why are you stopping my wife? Come here quickly, or don't blame me for being rude!"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The couple knew that they were being impatient, but it was obvious that Su Wenyue would not enter the house, so the mission would not be completed. How would he explain to his master later?

"Tell me, who are you?!" The housekeeper had already surrounded the peasant couple with several guards.

The couple looked at each other with some hesitation in their eyes, then glanced around, thought for a while, and took something out of their arms. The housekeeper was even more on guard, fearing that the couple would cheat.
