Rebirth of a Farming Wife - Chapter 332

Chapter 332: Chapter 340: Risking One’s Life
When the soldiers were assisting Su Wenyue out, Han Yu had already arrived in person, barely catching his breath, indicating he had hurried over. Seeing the deathly paleness of Su Wenyue’s face, he was startled. Han Yu didn’t immediately lash out at the two soldiers since he hadn’t clarified the situation. Instead, he quickly took Su Wenyue into his arms.

“What has happened here?” Han Yu demanded with a dark expression, his imposing aura causing the two soldiers to shiver involuntarily. He was a veritable god of death, his presence a clear sign that he was not someone they could afford to provoke.

“Madam was just kidnapped, and due to the overexcitement, she had an attack of heart disease. We were bringing her to the medical clinic to see a doctor.” The two soldiers hurriedly explained, indicating their innocence. However, Han Yu was not someone who would believe them so easily. Besides, what heart disease? Han Yu knew his daughter-in-law’s health better than anyone, and while she might be somewhat frail, she certainly was not suffering from any heart disease. There must be some trickery at play here. Seeing his daughter-in-law’s complexion suddenly improve a lot and feeling her pinch at his waist, he understood even more.

Performing a play required going all out—despite Han Yu’s arrival signifying her safety, Su Wenyue continued to act, not revealing any flaws. This was because Su Wenyue still had other concerns and did not want to expose herself just yet.

Although Han Yu saw through his daughter-in-law’s act, he still did not let his guard down. Whatever the case, seeing her covered in blood, the real paleness of her face, and a clear bloodstain on her neck, apparently from a blade, were all tangible things that made him grit his teeth in anger.

Especially when the two soldiers said his daughter-in-law had been kidnapped. Everything had been arranged perfectly before he left—Qi Luo was assigned, and people followed in secret, yet his daughter-in-law ended up looking like this. The wound on her neck… had the force been any greater, he didn’t dare imagine the consequences.

Rage surged in Han Yu’s heart. Qi Luo hadn’t shown up yet for some reason, and his people, although still present, had allowed his daughter-in-law to be injured. But now was not the time to investigate these matters. He would get to the bottom of it eventually.

Han Yu had no time to deal with the soldiers, handing them over to his men to watch, and immediately carrying Su Wenyue to the medical clinic. No matter what, he could only rest assured after having her seen by a doctor.

“Husband, don’t worry, I’m fine. I was just pretending earlier. We don’t really have to go to the medical clinic.” Su Wenyue said once they were out of the soldiers’ sight, urging Han Yu to put her down. Walking on the street with Han Yu carrying her, Su Wenyue felt her face turn red from the surrounding glances.

“Right, there’s also Father and Mother. I’ve been out for so long; they must be getting anxious. You should quickly send someone to check on them.” Su Wenyue suddenly remembered her Father-in-Law and Mother-in-Law, whom she had arranged to be at the cloth store. She had been unable to consider them in the emergency and now hurriedly mentioned them.

However, Han Yu did not let Su Wenyue down, still with a grim expression, he rebuked, “Keep quiet. I will take care of Father and Mother. First, I’ll take you to see the doctor. As for what happened today, you’ll explain everything in detail later. In what kind of trouble have you gotten yourself involved with by just stepping out of the door, I’ll not let anyone off the hook!”

Han Yu’s words were not merely about singling someone out for punishment. Su Wenyue shrank her neck a bit, sensing that even she was included in his statement, though she was the victim. As for Qi Luo, she had been out handling affairs on her behalf, so naturally, Han Yu should not punish Qi Luo.

Only after the doctor confirmed there was nothing wrong with Su Wenyue did Han Yu genuinely breathe a sigh of relief. Yet his expression remained dark; dispensing with the doctor, he personally applied ointment to Su Wenyue’s wounds.

“Husband, are you angry?” Su Wenyue asked somewhat self-consciously at this moment. She didn’t think she was at fault for today’s events. If that man had been captured and tortured to death, history would have changed completely, which she did not welcome. Too much uncertainty made her feel insecure. After all, Emperor Wu was a wise and virtuous emperor, and she didn’t want Han Yu to vie for that position. Therefore, rather than anyone else taking the throne, she preferred that the rightful person remain there, at least Emperor Wu could inspire Han Yu’s loyalty and leadership.

At this point, Han Yu had no close ties with that man and couldn’t understand Su Wenyue’s intentions. Even if he did grasp them, he would not exchange his daughter-in-law’s safety for them. To Han Yu, Su Wenyue’s actions were unforgivable. For the sake of an unknown man, a stranger who either friend or foe, she had risked her life and nearly lost it—Han Yu could not tolerate such behavior, and the chill in his body grew colder.

Seeing Han Yu like this, the doctor knew he wasn’t needed anymore, so he sensibly left the room, leaving the husband and wife to resolve their matters privately. He had had enough of sitting in the chilling aura, which was quite frightening to an old man like himself.

“Husband, don’t be angry. There was no other way today. How could I have known I’d stumble upon that incident? I wasn’t planning to intervene when the government soldiers arrived, but I realized that the man they were pursuing was deeply involved with Deng Chen. Since you and Deng Chen are such close friends, and you’ve been wanting to make acquaintances with this man, I took the risk to rescue him,” Su Wenyue rationalized, unable to share her true reasons, but indeed, this was part of her motive.

Han Yu did not expect the reason behind the events to be as such. He was first taken aback, filled with indescribable emotions, and pulled her tightly into his embrace, unable to blame her anymore.

“Daughter-in-law, why are you so foolish? No matter how good my relationship with Deng Chen might be, how could that compare to your importance to me? I have told you never to risk your safety for anything. If something had happened to you today, everything I have done would be meaningless,” Han Yu said, wishing he could merge her into his very being so that Su Wenyue could comprehend his thoughts and emotions.

“At the moment, I didn’t think about that. We all know Mr. Sun. If that person had fallen into his hands, he would most likely have had no good end. Moreover, I heard that man named Ba Lang say it was by the superior’s direction. Mr. Sun probably has higher support. The situation was so pressing; I had no choice but to resort to this strategy,” Su Wenyue mentioned, feeling nauseated when remembering Ba Lang, but decided not to tell Han Yu about him as it would only make Han Yu feel even more uncomfortable and self-reproachful.

Hearing Su Wenyue’s words, Han Yu’s gaze became even deeper. Unlike her, although he had not yet entered the military camp or assumed his position, these pieces of information allowed him to infer many things.

“Is the man you saved Liu Xiu?” Han Yu asked, almost certain of the man’s identity. Related to Deng Chen, someone he wanted to befriend, and pursued by government soldiers—this could only point to Liu Xiu. He just hadn’t expected that merely mentioning him a few times would lead his daughter-in-law to risk her life to save him. If she could do this much, how could he not be moved?
