Chapter 283: Can’t Retreat Even a Little
The herbal medicine shop is only two streets away from the mansion.
Riding in a carriage is naturally faster than walking, so Wen Wan was ready for battle as soon as she arrived at the door.
He Miao, right?
You've admired Chen Yu since childhood, right?
But Wen Wan is already the mother of Shen Yu's child, so how can she be allowed to take advantage of him?
It’s a pity that the idea is beautiful, but the reality is very bleak.
Wen Wan didn't even have the chance to enter the door before she was stopped outside by Manager Chen.
Manager Chen held Yan Sui's hand and stood at the door.
"Madam Wen, Young Master Yan Sui said he wanted to go home for a few days. I was just about to send him... and you back."
Wen Wan remained calm and pretended to be confused, "Send us back home?"
She looked at Yan Sui again, "You want to go home?"
Yan Sui nodded repeatedly, "Daddy said that if I stay home for two days and let him have some peace and quiet, he will buy me a big tiger."
After a pause, Yan Sui continued, "Dad also said that this is a secret between him and me, and I can't tell Mom. If Mom asks, I should say that I wanted to go back on my own."
When Manager Chen heard this, his face turned green.
The little guy is selling out the young master directly without any exaggeration.
Manager Chen was so anxious that he almost jumped up and down, "Young Master! Didn't you say not to tell Mother?"
Yan Sui made a face at him.
"Humph! My mother told me a long time ago that children shouldn't lie."
"Mom also said that everything she told me not to tell her was a bad thing. I'm a good boy, I don't do bad things."
After finishing speaking, Yan Sui raised her hands again and asked Wen Wan to hold her, "Mother, is Xiaobao good?"
"good!"
Wen Wan picked him up and gave him a thumbs-up on the forehead, "You are worthy of being your mother's good boy. You did a great job."
Fortunately, she was afraid that her child would be taught badly, so she always taught her child not to lie to her mother, otherwise she would have been fooled this time.
What a bastard, he's playing tricks on her, and now when his childhood sweetheart comes, he sends her and the child back home with an excuse?
What? Are you afraid of offending his childhood sweetheart?
"Steward Chen, the young master's guest has arrived, right? Where is he now?"
"You knew about this?" Manager Chen stared at her in shock.
Wen Wan curled her lips and said, "Don't worry about this. Where are they now?"
Manager Chen hesitated for a moment and did not answer. Instead, he advised: "Madam Wen, this person must be sensible in doing things. Although the young master has some friendship with you, after all..."
Manager Chen thought he had been very tactful. "You said that if you were more knowledgeable and tactful, the young master would not treat you unfairly."
As a man, who doesn’t like a pretty woman?
Madam Wen is indeed outstanding in appearance, but she is just a young widow, and the young master is looking up to her by allowing her to be his concubine.
What's more, the young master has eye disease, so why would he favor Madam Wen? Maybe he has some special hobby.
It is even more impossible to say it publicly.
So when the young master's friend came, didn't the young master quickly hide Madam Wen?
Wen Wan had seen many people who flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak, so she was not surprised that Manager Chen would do this.
Shen Yu came to the town to recuperate under an assumed name, using the identity of a merchant's son. Even in this merchant's family, only the merchant's father knew his true identity.
"Madam Wen, if you are patient, you will have a peaceful life. If you take a step back, you will have a bright future."
Manager Chen gave another piece of advice earnestly.
"Retreat?" Wen Wan shook her head. "You can't retreat even a little bit."
Since she planned to stand by his side again, she had no intention of backing out!
His eyesight is not good. If he falls into the trap of other women and something happens, who can she turn to for justice?
Instead of hiding too far away and being unable to defend himself, it is better to stand in front of people and stop those monsters who want to touch him.
"Half a month," Wen Wan handed Yan Sui to her, "Take Yan Sui home and stay for a few days."
Banyue took Yan Sui, but obviously didn't understand her actions.
Wen Wan leaned close to Ban Yue's ear, avoiding Manager Chen, and whispered:
"When fighting in front of others, the worst thing to do is to expose your weaknesses. You know who's the most important to me."
Yan Sui is still young, and it would be dangerous if someone used her to make a fuss about him.
Aren’t the shady tactics used in the harem always to target the weak first?
"Banyue, stay out of the house these few days and protect Yan Sui. If you really encounter danger, you know what to do."
She explained it gently and cautiously.
Banyue nodded, and there was a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Then Madam, please be careful in everything."
Wen Wan responded and gave Yan Sui a kiss on the cheek before watching the two of them leave.
Wen Wan picked up the bamboo basket containing medicinal herbs and turned to walk into the house.
Manager Chen frowned, unable to stop her, so he could only follow her.

In the back garden, there are more beautiful flowers in full bloom in the past two days.
It is obviously much more elegant than the last time he came to Tu.
Xiang Tu placed the bucket on the stone table, glanced at the well-maintained garden, rolled his eyes, and said to He Miao in a flattering manner:
"County Master He, look, these must have been prepared in advance because the master knew you were coming."
He Miao was about to speak when Shen Yu, who was sitting at the fence, frowned.
"You're the only one who talks too much!"
Xiang Tu smiled foolishly, without saying anything, and only mouthed to He Miao: The master is shy.
He Miao smiled and nodded to show that she understood.
Xiang Tu cleared his throat again and said, "County Lady, Master, I've been driving a carriage all the way and I'm very hungry. I'll go to the kitchen to get some steamed buns."
This was clearly to give He Miao and Shen Yu a chance to be alone.
He Miao smiled with satisfaction, then took out a silver note from her pocket and handed it over.
Xiang Tu took the banknote and ran away happily.
"Brother Yu, I came here this time specifically to give you a prescription for treating your eye disease."
He Miao sat down next to Shen Yu. Shen Yu felt someone approaching and moved to the side with a wooden expression.
"County Lady He, men and women should not touch each other."
"There's no outsider here. We even slept in the same bed when we were kids."
Although He Miao was unwilling, she didn't dare to get close to him again.
Chen Yu said indifferently, "County Lady He, please be careful with your words. When we were three years old, it was just children playing around. How can it be compared to what we are doing now?"
He Miaojiao sneered, "Brother Yu, you're getting more boring as you get older."
Shen Yu remained silent and didn't respond.
He Miao was already used to his cold attitude. When he didn't speak, she would find topics to talk about herself.
"Brother Yu, do you know that my brother sent someone to find a hidden genius doctor for this prescription? He spent a lot of effort to get it."
"Brother Yu, you hid in such a remote place by yourself. It's ok not to tell anyone else, but why did you hide it from me?"
"If I hadn't told the old lady that I had a miraculous prescription for treating eye diseases, she wouldn't have told me where you were going."
"Brother Yu..."
Once He Miao started talking, she couldn't stop, calling him "Brother Yu" all the time in a very affectionate manner.
