Inside Peach Blossom Valley, the sun was shining on the doors and windows. Seeing that no one had come to get breakfast for Su Wenyue in the kitchen, they sent someone over to wake up the servants. They then discovered that except for the servants from Peach Blossom Valley, Han Yu and his wife and Zhai Li were all missing from the yard. They mobilized the servants in the valley, but they couldn't find them even after searching the entire valley.
"Manager, look, the formation and mechanism at the entrance of the valley have been cracked. Could it be that General Han and his men have already left the valley?" The guard patrolling the entrance of the valley was the first to discover the abnormality and report it.
"General Han and his men cannot be found in the entire valley, and the formations and mechanisms at the valley entrance have been broken. I think they have indeed left." The manager said with a serious face. Taohua Valley relied on the formations and mechanisms built by their ancestors hundreds of years ago, and had never encountered such a thing before. Especially since he only discovered it now after it happened, it was really a dereliction of duty.
"Manager, General Han and the others may not have gone far. Why don't we send someone to chase them? Maybe we can catch up with them!"
The steward shook his head. After all, they were of different status and could see things more clearly. “No need. Since General Han has a way to break through the formation and the mechanism and leave, we can’t stop him even if we chase him. I’ll report to Uncle Gu first and see what he says before making any decisions.”
As the young master of the Sikong family and the master of Taohua Valley, Sikong Ling rarely stays in Taohua Valley. Usually, the affairs of the valley are managed and decided by Uncle Gu, but Uncle Gu is obsessed with martial arts and usually leaves the general affairs to the steward. He seldom shows up and has a low sense of presence, especially when Sikong Ling is there, all the affairs of the valley are left to Sikong Ling. Uncle Gu only appears when Sikong Ling just arrives, tells Sikong Ling about what happened in the valley during this period, and then goes into seclusion in his own territory. That was when Su Wenyue was still unconscious, so Han Yu and Su Wenyue still don't know about the existence of this person.
"This Han Yu is quite capable. Young Master has a sophisticated vision and rarely makes mistakes in judging people. He is a good young man, especially in terms of formations and mechanisms. He can even solve the formations and mechanisms set up by our ancestors. Not bad, not bad. He is a promising talent. If it weren't for his wrong status, I would have wanted to take him in as my last disciple."
Uncle Gu twirled his beard and spoke, his focus obviously not being on the same point as the steward. But it was true that although Uncle Gu was only a servant of the Sikong family, in terms of seniority and qualifications, even in front of the head of the family, one had to show some respect to Uncle Gu. Uncle Gu was a disciple of the old Valley Master of the previous generation, and all his skills were inherited from the old Valley Master. Whenever Sikong Ling saw him, he had to respectfully call him Uncle Gu.
"Uncle Gu, what do you think about this matter..." The steward had a worried look on his face. It would have been fine if General Han had left, but he took Miss Su with him. He saw how much the young master valued Miss Su, and he was afraid that the young master would blame him after knowing the news. Even an old man in the valley like him was afraid of the young master's methods.
"Just go if you want to. The young master has given instructions before he left. If Han Yu can leave with his own ability, we don't need to stop him." Uncle Gu waved his hand indifferently. If the young master hadn't given such instructions, it would still be unknown whether Han Yu could leave.
"So the young master has given instructions. That's good. Otherwise, I really don't know how to explain to the young master." The steward wiped the sweat from his forehead and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Uncle Gu was supervising like this, and sneered: "You're so scared over such a small thing, you have no ambition!"
The steward didn't dare to refute what he heard, but he secretly complained: "With your status, the young master won't do anything to you, but people like us will be miserable. The young master's methods are fierce, even more powerful than the old valley master. Who in the valley is not afraid of him?"
"Husband, how long will it take us to get there?" After leaving Peach Blossom Valley, Su Wenyue was only thinking about getting to Fengjiazhuang to see her child as soon as possible. She didn't know how many times she asked this question along the way. She really missed her child so much.
Han Yu felt helpless and jealous. As expected, after having a child, his status in his wife's mind plummeted. His wife had only been thinking about the child all the way and completely ignored him. However, seeing his wife's anxious face, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction. After all, the child was his own. Han Yu went straight to his wife since he came from Yiyang Prefecture. He only knew about the child's condition from the news coming from down there. It has been a long time since he last saw the child, and he didn't know what the child looks like now.
"Don't worry, wife. Now that we have come out of Peach Blossom Valley, the children are staying well in Fengjiazhuang. Even if we want to see them, it will not be possible right now. We will stay in the town ahead tonight. We still have to travel for a whole morning to get there tomorrow." Han Yu also took Su Wenyue's health into consideration, so he did not travel very fast along the way.
"I think we shouldn't stay in the town at night. It's only a morning's journey anyway. Let's drive the carriage faster and make more effort. We can reach Fengjiazhuang today. Let's not waste this night." Su Wenyue was worried about her children. She didn't want to waste another night. She wished she could spend the whole night on the journey.
"Wife, it's only one morning. We don't mind this morning. Your body won't be able to handle such a long journey. The children won't feel at ease if they know that you have ruined your body by traveling for them." Han Yu knew that his wife would not listen to any other reasons, so he had to move the children out.
"No, I know my own body. I'm in good spirits right now. I'm not walking but sitting in a carriage. The carriage is padded with two thick layers of cotton. It's comfortable. I don't feel tired at all. How can I get sick in just one night?"
"Wife, you have to be obedient!" Han Yu's face had darkened.
Su Wenyue was not afraid of Han Yu's sullen face. In order to see the child earlier, facing Han Yu's sullen face was nothing. Besides, Han Yu was just sullen and he would not do anything to her. "Husband, you know my temper. Even if I stop to rest in the town at night, I still can't sleep because I am worried about the child. It's better to hurry up and get to Fengjiazhuang early. Seeing the child will make me feel at ease, and I can have a good rest."
Su Wenyue was extremely persistent on this matter, and Han Yu's many words of advice did not work. In the end, he had to compromise and went back as Su Wenyue wished.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Han Yu also understood that his wife was so eager to see the child that even if he insisted on staying in the town to rest, she would definitely not be able to sleep. It would be better to rush to Fengjiazhuang to see the child as soon as possible so that she could rest peacefully after seeing the child. With the care provided by Doctor Mu during this period of time, and the carriage being quite comfortable, the wife would not be too tired from traveling.
