Su Wenyue lay down dejectedly, feeling uncomfortable in her heart. She was worried about Han Yu's safety and also worried that Han Yu was angry because of Sikong Ling's matter. Han Yu left too hastily and there were many things that had not been made clear. Su Wenyue was still a little nervous and did not sleep either, wanting to wait for Han Yu to come back. However, she was too sleepy and fell asleep while waiting. When she woke up, it was already daybreak. She looked to the side out of habit and found that Han Yu was not there. She touched the quilt and found it was cold.
Could it be that Han Yu didn’t come back all night?
As Su Wenyue was thinking this, she immediately got confirmation from Nanny Li that a thief broke into the mansion last night, was chased away by Han Yu, and before he had time to return to his room, he was called away by someone and has not returned since.
"Don't worry, ma'am. The master is very capable and will be safe." Nanny Li saw that Su Wenyue's face was not very good and thought that it was because she was worried about Han Yu, so she comforted her.
Su Wenyue nodded and said nothing. She asked Nanny Li to ask the wet nurse to bring the children over. Only one New Year had passed, and the three little ones had grown a lot, becoming white and plump. Looking at the three little ones, Su Wenyue felt much more at ease. No matter what, this life would be different. At least she still had three well-behaved and obedient children.
Xing Ge'er has been a smart kid since he was young. Maybe he sensed his mother's low mood, so he stretched out his hands to ask for a hug.
Su Wenyue's heart softened as she teased the three little ones. She finally didn't feel the time was so unbearable. However, she was still waiting for Han Yu to come back, because she didn't know where Han Yu had gone or what he had done. She was also afraid that someone would rashly inquire about Han Yu and ruin his affairs. She could only let the servant guard the gatehouse and report back as soon as there was any news.
Su Wenyue just kept waiting, from morning to afternoon, and from afternoon to night, thinking that Han Yu would come back eventually. But in the evening, Han Yu still hadn't come back, and he hadn't sent anyone back to report the news. Su Wenyue couldn't help but think too much. Could it be that Han Yu didn't want to bother with her because of Sikong Ling's matter? Otherwise, no matter how busy he was in the past, he would always send someone to send a message back, at least so that she wouldn't have to worry so much.
The three little guys had a lot of fun today, and fell into a deep sleep after drinking their milk. After Su Wenyue checked them carefully, she let the nanny carry the three little guys back to their room to sleep.
Without the little guy babbling around, Su Wenyue couldn't help but have wild thoughts. She kept looking forward to Han Yu's return, but she still didn't see him until midnight.
Han Yu was so busy at this time that he had no time to think about family matters. Moreover, although he did not want to do anything to his wife because of Sikong Ling's matter, he still felt a little bothered deep in his heart. Now that he had a legitimate reason and opportunity, he could take this time to separate for a while. He thought that with this period of time, the concern in his heart would disappear. However, he was afraid that his wife would worry, so when he had time, he still sent someone back to report the news to prevent her from worrying.
"Madam, you haven't eaten well or slept well these past two days. If you continue like this, your body won't be able to bear it sooner or later. The master may be too busy to come back. He would be heartbroken if he knew about you like this." Seeing that Su Wenyue stayed up late waiting for Han Yu again, and the abnormal behavior of the madam in the past two days, Nanny Li also realized that something was wrong between the couple. However, the madam was unwilling to mention it. As a servant, she could only do her best to serve and be a secret guard.
"I'm worried about his safety." Su Wenyue said hesitantly. Some things can't be told to outsiders and can only be kept in the heart.
"My lord, you are a lucky man, nothing will happen to you, madam. Why don't you go to sleep first, I will keep watch for you. If my lord comes back, I will wake you up. Even if you don't do this for my lord, you have to support yourself for the two young masters and the young lady. You can't let your body get damaged."
Nanny Li tried to persuade them earnestly and was really worried. Fortunately, Han Yu's guards came back with news soon.
"Madam, the master has something to do and can't come back. Please take good care of yourself and your family. Don't worry about him."
Su Wenyue was originally worried to the point of being impatient, but she felt relieved when she got the news that Han Yu was safe. No matter what, as long as Han Yu was okay, it was good. As for the rest, there was always a solution. With this time, she also figured it out. Since the incident had happened, there was no point in worrying. She could only face it calmly. Moreover, Han Yu remembered to send someone back to report that he was safe, which showed that he was thinking about her.
"What is my husband busy with? What happened?" Su Wenyue asked again.
The guard sent by Han Yu refused to reveal the secret: "Please forgive me, madam. What you are doing now is quite secret and important. Without your permission, I dare not reveal it casually."
Li Ma Ma was a little angry when she saw the guard's attitude. Especially since the Madam had been worried about the Master for the past two days and had not eaten or slept well, the guard was still hiding the Master's secrets and refused to tell her. If it were someone else, it would be his duty, but the Madam was not an outsider, how could she treat her like an ordinary person? She immediately frowned and said, "When the Madam asks you questions, just answer them properly. Will the Master blame you? You are a guard who doesn't know how to behave."
Nanny Li said this, but the guard remained unmoved: "It is my duty, please forgive me, Madam."
Su Wenyue had no intention of blaming the guards. They were just performing their duties, and they were so serious about it. On the contrary, Su Wenyue admired them a little. She waved her hand and asked them to go back and report.
After hearing the news that Han Yu was safe, Su Wenyue was finally able to have a good sleep. When she woke up the next day, she had just finished washing and dressing herself, and had not even had time to eat breakfast, when Ye Xinxin came to find her. It was only then that Su Wenyue learned that a riot had broken out in the neighboring city. Some people had risen up in rebellion under the guise of serving the king and clearing the court of corrupt officials. However, the news only came out in the morning.
"Sister Yue, you don't know that the entire XX city is in chaos because of the rebellion. Even our Yiyang Prefecture has been affected a lot. Even my husband, who has so much free time, is busy all the time, not to mention your husband. He has been busy these days and definitely can't spare time to go home. My husband specially asked me to come and accompany you because he was afraid that you would worry after hearing the news.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Su Wenyue felt a little complicated when she heard Ye Xinxin's words. She actually learned about Han Yu's movements through Ye Xinxin. It seemed that it was not such a confidential matter. If it were normal times, Su Wenyue would not think too much about it, but it was a more sensitive time like this.
But no matter what she thought, Su Wenyue did not show anything wrong on her face, and smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm fine. The court is in such a mess now, and there are reasons for rebellion. It doesn't sound surprising to me. What's more, my husband sent someone back last night to report that he is safe. I feel relieved knowing that he is fine."
