"Zhai Li, go back and look after your wife immediately. Be alert. If your wife does anything inappropriate, stop her immediately. I will go back as soon as I finish dealing with things here." Han Yu said anxiously. Today's matter was of great importance and he had to be present in person. However, he was really worried about his wife, so he had to send Zhai Li back to keep an eye on her. With Zhai Li there, at least no accidents would happen. As for the rest, he would wait until he went back to explain it to his wife. He believed that his wife would understand. He had always kept his wife's words in mind and would stick to his bottom line even if he was just pretending.
Zhai Li had been with Han Yu for so long that he naturally knew what kind of person the lady was like. The lady was good in every way except that she was too jealous and couldn't stand having other women around the master.
However, at this time, they all had a good impression of Su Wenyue and did not think there was anything wrong with it. To be fair, if it were him, if he could marry a good woman like the lady, he would be willing to stay with her for the rest of his life. Having too many women is not good, as there will be many gossips, and the favors of some beauties are really hard to bear, just like what the lord is doing now.
Although there were compelling reasons to tolerate the woman a little, the adults could no longer bear it. They could sense strong disgust from the adults, who were usually so introverted and it was hard to tell what they liked or disliked. This showed how much they disliked the woman.
"Don't worry, sir. I will keep a good eye on your madam and won't let anything happen to her." Zhai Li responded solemnly. He knew in his heart that this mission was more important than anything else. Your Excellency regarded your madam as more important than anything else. Only when your madam was safe and sound could your Excellency do his work with peace of mind.
"If Madam doesn't do anything unusual, then you just stay here quietly. Don't disturb Madam and wait for me to come back." Han Yu thought about it and said again. He felt that it was inappropriate and not very thoughtful. He couldn't trust anyone else except himself.
Seeing Han Yu like this, Zhai Li sighed in his heart. As expected, no one is perfect. The general's biggest shortcoming and weakness in this life is his wife. Seeing the general's uneasy look, "Sir, how about I go back and explain the matter to my wife first? My wife should understand the truth of the matter.
Zhai Li didn't hate Chen Li so much before, even though Chen Li was jumping around happily in front of Liu Xiu, and even because Chen Li and Zhou Yao stood on opposite sides, he had a better impression of Chen Li. Now he really thinks that this woman is too troublesome. She is so busy, but she still runs to the lady to complain, and now it has become like this. He really doesn't know what to say.
"No need. I will explain this matter to my wife myself. You just need to take good care of her." Han Yu rejected Zhai Li's suggestion without thinking. This was a matter between them and his wife. He wanted to explain it to his wife himself and didn't want to let anyone else know.
"As for the specifics of what to do, I won't teach you. You've been with me for so long, and you probably know Madam's personality. You'll have to act according to circumstances. In short, you must ensure Madam's safety and don't let her do anything dangerous."
After Han Yu finished speaking, he waved his hand and let Zhai Li leave. Unless he went back in person, he would never be completely at ease. This would only waste time, so it would be better to let Zhai Li go back immediately.
As soon as Zhai Li returned to the Han Mansion, he immediately asked the secret guards in the mansion about Su Wenyue's whereabouts. He learned that the lady had been staying in the room alone, with no one serving her and no one allowed in. He felt a pang in his heart. The lady's reaction was obviously abnormal. He didn't know what that crazy woman Chen Li had said to the lady. He hoped that things would not be too bad.
Zhai Li prayed in his heart, but he did not stop. He walked to the backyard as fast as he could. When he came to the door of the lady's room, he saw Nanny Li and Shuxiang standing at the door with worried faces. Zhai Li's heart sank even more.
Li Ma and Shuxiang were really stupid. How could they let Madam stay in the room alone at a time like this? What if something happened? Madam had such a fierce temper and was possessive of the general. Who knew what she would do? If she took the weapon and beat people up like before, it would be fine. But I was afraid that Madam would hurt herself.
"Master Zhai, you are back, but the general sent you back. Did the general say anything? Did the general ask you and Madam to explain anything?" Nanny Li was also very anxious. When she saw Zhai Li appear, she showed some joy on her face. Zhai Li must have come back at the master's order. She asked hurriedly, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Zhai Li shook his head and said, "No, the master just asked me to come back and take care of Madam so that nothing will happen to her. The master will explain the truth of the matter to Madam in person."
"Madame Li, you are an old lady too. Why do you let Madam stay in the room alone at this time? You know Madam's temper very well. What if she goes astray and does something to hurt herself?" Zhai Li said again with disapproval.
Normally, Zhai Li was very respectful to Nanny Li because she was older and someone Su Wenyue trusted. However, no matter in the past or now, her status was higher than Nanny Li's, so he used such a questioning tone. He was also too anxious and worried, and his tone unconsciously showed dissatisfaction.
"Master Zhai is right. I naturally know what kind of personality the Madam has. But Master Zhai must also know that once the Madam has made a decision, we servants cannot disobey it. Moreover, it is now. If I show any disobedience, it will cause more trouble to the Madam and even worse things. We have no choice but to follow the Madam's personality. But don't worry, Master Zhai. I have been listening carefully to the movements inside and would rush in immediately if there is anything wrong." Nanny Li was not angry. Not to mention that Zhai Li was worried about the Madam, the rules of status and hierarchy had long been engraved in her bones. She just explained her approach.
After hearing what Li Ma'am said, Zhai Li realized that he had wronged her. That was indeed the Madam's personality. But waiting outside like this was not a solution. He could not feel at ease until he saw that the Madam was fine.
"I was reckless, but Madam has been in the room for so long. It's really worrying if this continues." Zhai Li wanted to ask Nanny Li to think of a solution, but then he thought, if Nanny Li had a solution, she would have done it long ago and there would be no need to wait here. It would be fine for Nanny Li to just wait like this, but he was brought back specially by the adults, so it is naturally impossible for him to act like this. He was worrying about what to do, and when he saw Xing Ge'er coming, his eyes lit up, and his expression was the same as Nanny Li's when she saw him appear. It was obvious that she regarded Xing Ge'er as a savior.
Xing Ge'er took his younger brother and sister back home. He felt really worried, but his mother didn't let him stay, so he had to ask someone to keep an eye on the movements in the main house.
