Rebirth of a Farming Wife Chapter 370 – Chapter 370: Chapter 377: Will Understand

Chapter 370: Chapter 377: Will Understand
Su Wenyue felt that she couldn’t be too impulsive, for there must be something fishy going on, and she needed to think it over before making a decision. Otherwise, if she rashly confronted the situation and ruined Han Yu’s efforts, that wouldn’t be good. Yes, just like that, she would wait and see how things developed. Having made up her mind, Su Wenyue retracted her steps that were already heading out the door.

“Madam, what are you doing?” Aunt Li didn’t understand why the Madam suddenly wasn’t in a hurry anymore. Didn’t she say that she was going to find the Master, or perhaps find that vixen and resolve this matter? Dragging it out wasn’t a solution. What if the Master had a child with that vixen out there?

“Aunt Li, let’s not go. Let’s head back.” As Su Wenyue spoke, she turned around to walk back, leaving everyone somewhat confused. Why had the Madam changed her mind again? Could it be that she had come to an understanding and wanted to demonstrate virtuous magnanimity? But after all, that woman from outside didn’t have the status worthy of being brought into the discussion. Perhaps the Madam simply didn’t regard her as a threat.

Aunt Li seemed to think the same: “Madam, even though this era demands that a woman be virtuous and magnanimous, you really can’t handle things this way. If that vixen outside really seduces the Master away, it would be too late for regrets, Madam. Fortunately, you already have three children under your knees, and the servant sees that the Master usually holds you in high regard. As long as the Madam goes to him, the Master might change his heart, considering the children.”

Su Wenyue saw Aunt Li’s anxious look and felt touched, but some thoughts were clear to her but could not be told to the servants, nor could they be said out loud. She said only, “Aunt Li, rest assured, I have my own judgment. I understand what kind of person my husband is; he is not one who would abandon loyalties or be ungrateful. Moreover, the matter concerning that woman is nothing but a rumor and has not been confirmed. It could very well be a trap set by someone with ulterior motives.”

Aunt Li, hearing Su Wenyue say this, felt uneasy but dared not speak further. Madam’s authority had grown, and many thoughts were beyond her comprehension. Moreover, this was not something a servant like her should meddle in; her duty was simply to fulfill her own role.

Su Wenyue turned back and went directly to her three children’s room. Looking at the three little ones, she felt much better. Although she had calmed down now, her heart was not entirely at peace and she began to contemplate how to deal with the situation.

At that moment, Han Yu was walking with a woman of striking beauty, intimately close, and looking at her with tender pity, they entered a Small Courtyard together.

If one were to look closely, they would discover that Han Yu’s face bore traces of indifference and impatience, whereas the woman, with a shy demeanor, emitted love from her eyes and gestures, seemingly genuine and not feigned.

“Master, have these days been exhausting for you? Would you like your servant girl to familiarize you with them?” Chi Feifei, with her enchanting eyes fixed on Han Yu, had a posture like a frail willow in the breeze, conveying an inviting message with eyes that seemed to speak. Any ordinary man might soften at such a display, but unfortunately for her, Han Yu was no ordinary man, and remained unmoved, especially with Su Wenyue as a point of comparison. Seeing Chi Feifei’s pretense, he found it distastefully insincere.

Seeing Chi Feifei drawing closer to him, Han Yu furrowed his brow, this woman, though purchased temporarily to deceive others, did not seem to be very content.

“There’s no need, you may leave,” Han Yu said, stepping to the side, ensuring that Chi Feifei did not touch him. Although he had to act intimate for the sake of the ruse just moments ago, Han Yu was insistent about his own boundaries, which he had promised to his wife.

“Master, shall I head to the Kitchen then and prepare several fine dishes for you? Your servant lacks other talents, but cooking is one craft I’ve specially learned from home’s chef. You’ve been so busy these days, Master, you probably haven’t had time for a proper meal. It would be a good chance to sample your servant’s culinary skills.”

Chi Feifei, undeterred by Han Yu’s rejection, boasted of her cooking skills, hoping to showcase them to Han Yu. Such an excellent man, surely not comparable to those lechers, the fact that he wasn’t dazzled by her beauty spoke volumes of his resolve. It was such a man who deserved her, Chi Feifei. Had it been before, given her Merchant’s Daughter background, she might barely match Lord Han. Though now in a fallen state, what did that matter? The chance encounter with such a Good man conveyed her luck had not run out. Relying on her charm and beauty, she was confident she could win over this man.

Han Yu, reminded by Chi Feifei’s boastful manner of his culinary skills, thought of his wife. What did she say about her cooking skills? Could it be better than his Daughter-in-law’s? Seeing the expectant look on Chi Feifei, which clearly revealed ambition and desire, Han Yu’s face turned cold.

“You know why I bought you, and you have agreed to my terms. Once this is behind us, I will return your contract of sale to you and give you your freedom. As for other, ill-considered desires, do not entertain them, or your outcome will be a hundred times more tragic than being sold into a Brothel. So, do your duty well and let me not see you make any more unruly moves, or you’ll suffer consequences that you cannot bear,” Han Yu said coldly, his icy gaze sharply fixed on Chi Feifei.

Chi Feifei, seeing Han Yu’s stern demeanor, was genuinely frightened. Being thrust into a Brothel, she had nearly lost her purity, a fate worse than death. A hundred times worse than that—what would it be? As a Merchant’s Daughter, Chi Feifei had no other Ability but was very adept at reading people. Han Yu was not joking in the slightest, especially with the chilling undertones in his voice that made her shiver uncontrollably. Though her heart still harbored unwillingness and fantasies, she dared not let it show.

“Yes, this Servant Girl understands,” she responded.

“Now go,” Han Yu commanded after warning Chi Feifei and didn’t even spare her another glance, waving her off.

Yan Pingdao came over just in time to witness this scene, and he sighed internally, lamenting that the Master truly didn’t know how to cherish beauty. With Chi Feifei’s looks, any other man would have taken the opportunity, yet the Master was unmoved, his heart set only on his wife. He had never met the Madam but had heard she was beautiful. Could she be more beautiful than Chi Feifei, that she could make the Master so steadfastly devoted?

“How is it, has the news been spread?” As soon as Yan Pingdao approached, Han Yu asked.

“Master, rest assured, the matter has been handled. If your Subordinate isn’t mistaken, the Madam may already have received the news,” Yan Pingdao said cautiously. Han Yu had warned him on this matter, so he did not dare reveal too much emotion and carried out the task just as the Master had instructed, without any excesses.

Hearing Yan Pingdao’s words, Han Yu had a complex expression on his face, his heart filled with worry. He wondered how his wife would react to the news. If there had been any other option, he would not wish to act this way, but given the current situation, his position was too precarious to risk his wife’s safety. Even if she was momentarily heartbroken, she should understand once he explained everything afterward.
