Rebirth of a Farming Wife - Chapter 375
Chapter 375: Chapter 382: Dangerous Situation
“Han Yu, aren’t you something!” Su Wenyue, having finished hitting someone, was a bit tired herself. She found Han Yu’s leisurely demeanor somewhat irksome. Even though she understood that Han Yu was at an inconvenient time to do anything, the trouble had been brought on by him. She walked over and stomped on Han Yu fiercely before leaving with her people. Of course, she didn’t forget to put on a heartbroken facade.

The Daughter-in-law’s kick was truly ruthless, not holding back at all. Han Yu winced in pain, letting out a suppressed groan, and watched helplessly as his wife stormed out—the irony was not lost on him.
Humming angrily, Su Wenyue departed, and those hiding in the shadows naturally didn’t notice the interaction and understanding between Han Yu and Su Wenyue. They just saw Su Wenyue angrily leaving and interpreted it as a falling out between Han Yu and Su Wenyue due to another woman, with her figure disappearing into the shadows.
Aunt Li followed closely behind Su Wenyue, her face full of worry, hoping the Madam wouldn’t get too angry. The Master had gone too far; men truly are despicable creatures. She thought of how well the Madam had treated the Master in the past, not to mention how highly the wife’s family regarded him, yet this was the outcome.
However, Aunt Li was an experienced woman, although she knew Han Yu’s actions were dishonorable. The Madam’s behavior was also a bit extreme. After all, in this era, it was normal for a man to have multiple wives and concubines, but a woman could not show jealousy. Just the reputation alone was bad enough; it was still best to counsel the Madam. The Madam was acting impulsively, and they, as servants, couldn’t just watch her make a fool of herself and let that vixen from outside take advantage.
Su Wenyue boarded the horse carriage with a face full of grief and indignation. Only after lowering the curtain did she feel somewhat relieved. The expression on her face eased, but far from relaxing, her expression turned serious.
Seeing Su Wenyue like this, Aunt Li was somewhat surprised, but automatically interpreted it as Su Wenyue being upset about the other woman.

Upon returning to the Mansion, Su Wenyue immediately sent someone to the Zhuangzi with a message that she intended to move there, and she ordered the Servants in the house to pack up, not willing to delay even a moment.
“All of you, hurry up and pack the things immediately. We will set out for the Zhuangzi in half an hour. Anyone who dawdles and wastes time, don’t blame me for being unkind,” Su Wenyue commanded coldly.
Su Wenyue’s circumstances were known by many in the Mansion. Her actions at this time were understood by everyone—Madam was truly angry and wanted to spite the Master by moving to the Zhuangzi. Especially seeing Su Wenyue in such a temper, with her icy demeanor, everyone was afraid to make a mistake and provoke her wrath, so they diligently got on with their work, more efficiently than ever before.
Having arranged her own affairs, Su Wenyue then went to check on her three children. The affairs here could be entrusted to the old women and the Servant girls, but she felt more at ease personally overseeing the children. The three children inevitably heard the conversation between Aunt Li and Su Wenyue, but no one would think that such little children could understand it.
“Madam, are you really going to the Zhuangzi?” Aunt Li, seeing Su Wenyue’s determination, asked worriedly. Su Wenyue simply nodded in response. Brother Xing watched Aunt Li’s concerned expression and Su Wenyue’s reaction. He had overheard the Nannies talking, and it seemed to all point to one thing. His little face was full of worry as he listened intently, afraid of missing anything.
“Madam, I know you are angry. The Master indeed did something quite insensible this time. But it’s a matter that can’t be helped. No woman wants her man to have other women. That’s just the way the world is. To see it in a positive light, the Master is actually one of the better ones. He only has a few women outside and normally keeps himself clean. Just look at those other Madams and ladies, whose backyards are overcome with concubines and maids, constantly battling each other; that’s truly distressing,” Aunt Li said, then seeing Su Wenyue narrowing her eyes and staying silent, she continued: “That’s how the world works. We women have a tough life, but if we’re born into a good family and marry a good Husband, life can be a bit easier. Even the Su Family with its upright traditions has a few concubines in the backyard. As long as you keep them in check, although the sight of them is irritating, life can still be good. You mustn’t act impulsively, Madam. Do not let the Master provoke you into leaving for the Zhuangzi with a few words. Didn’t you see how that fox was acting just now? She was deliberately trying to upset you, aiming to create strife between you and the Master. You mustn’t fall for that fox’s trick. You are the Master’s legally married Wife; even if that fox enters the Mansion, she can’t surpass you.”
Brother Xing, hearing Aunt Li’s words, now understood everything—what the Nannies had said was true. His Dad truly had another woman. Recalling the experiences from his previous life, a look of pain and ferocity couldn’t help but appear in Brother Xing’s eyes.
Although he didn’t understand why this life was different from the last, with so many changes, one thing was firm—he never wanted to be apart from Mother again. In his previous life, Mother had left him, and he knew too well how miserable life was without her. Not to mention the woman Dad later married, who was duplicitous, showing one face while hiding another. Had he not grown up enough to stand up and protect himself, God knows what might have happened.
As for his Birth Mother, who had abandoned him in his previous life, Brother Xing had indeed felt hatred and resentment. Yet as he grew up, he gradually understood the helplessness in certain situations, and his resentment dissipated a lot. He didn’t expect to have lived a lifetime and returned to being a newborn, enjoying Mother’s love for him, along with his little brother and sister, a family of five living such a happy life. He absolutely wouldn’t let anyone destroy this. It was just that Brother Xing thought this way, but he was still too young. He had the will but lacked the power. Never before had he wished so fervently to grow up quickly, to not feel as powerless in the face of a crisis, unable to do anything.
Su Wenyue understood Aunt Li’s concern. If it weren’t for her knowledge from the previous life and the actions of Han Yu in this life, which gave her enough confidence, she wouldn’t have been so unwaveringly trusting in Han Yu. Just then, glancing at her three children, she noticed something off about Brother Xing’s expression.
Su Wenyue’s heart chilled. How could she have forgotten that her Brother Xing was different from other children? Speaking about these things in front of Brother Xing, and now seeing him like this, Su Wenyue could already confirm the suspicion in her mind.
“You all may leave now, wait outside. Aunt Li, you stay,” she said.

With only the three children and Aunt Li left in the room, Su Wenyue picked up Brother Xing and held him in her arms, gently stroking his head, then addressing Aunt Li: “Aunt Li, things aren’t as you imagine. Husband hasn’t found another woman outside. The previous incident was just a ruse. Currently, things outside are tumultuous, and Husband’s situation is very dangerous. It seems there is some compelling reason he can’t notify me, so he had to resort to this method.”
