Chapter 581: Chapter Five Hundred Eighty-seven
If any other man encountered such a situation, even knowing the fault was not hers, I’m afraid so misgivings would remain in his heart; what’s more, there are instances where n have resorted to ridiculous actions such as divorcing their wives over such issues. After all, the expectations placed upon won in this era are far too harsh.
Even the flirtatious Sikong Ling in his previous life, before she even did anything—rely because the other concubines envied her favor and deliberately spread rumors which were entirely baseless—grew cold towards her for a month or two without asking anything. He knew she was innocent. Thus, having a husband like Han Yu, even if he had so minor flaws, occasionally acted the part of a domineering male, it truly was the greatest fortune of her life.
Feeling moved, Su Wenyue’s gaze towards Han Yu softened further. Seeing that he still looked sowhat displeased, with a cold deanor, she extended both hands, voluntarily embracing Han Yu’s neck, and offered herself to his arms, “Husband, you are truly kind, I have nothing to worry about with you by my side. Marrying you is the greatest luck of my life.”
Han Yu, in fact, wasn’t really that angry, and even if he was, it wasn’t directed at Su Wenyue. His annoyance was towards those n coveting his wife. Given that his wife took the initiative to be so affectionate, and he could tell that she was sincere when speaking those words, his heart felt even more warmth.
Han Yu had always been observant, and he had always noticed his wife’s feelings for him. If it could be said that initially her feelings for him were indifferent, even if her outward expressions were joyful, they may not have contained much emotion, but over ti that changed, and the two of them gradually developed deep feelings. It was just that Han Yu wasn’t sure what place he truly held in her heart, which is why he felt jealous seeing how much she cared for their three children. Although he too cherished his children, he hoped that he would be her first priority.
Not until a while back, when his wife risked her life by jumping off the cliff for his sake, did he truly feel shocked and recognized the depth of her feelings for him. Despite that, she had never expressed her feelings in such a genuine manner before.
“Wife, marrying you is also the greatest luck of my life, and for that you don’t know how grateful I am,” Han Yu said softly, looking at Su Wenyue with eyes so tender they seed to exude warmth, not a trace of displeasure remained.
“So you’re not angry with anymore?” Su Wenyue hooked a finger in the collar of Han Yu’s clothes, her voice coquettish, laced with a hint of teasing.
Several deep chuckles of pleasure ca from Han Yu’s throat, “You little clever thing, even trying to charm with your beauty. But I was never angry with you to begin with. Your husband is not the kind of narrow-minded man who can’t tell right from wrong. Although this matter is indeed unpleasant, it’s not your fault, should I bla my wife for being too pretty and likeable? Only a man with no ability would do such a thing, and your husband is certainly not a man without ability.”
Han Yu was sowhat proud, unable to restrain himself from voicing his thoughts in front of his wife, but then again, that was what he truly believed.
“Yes, my husband has the greatest ability, truly an understanding and wonderful husband,” Su Wenyue agreed with a smiling face, though the choice of words…
Han Yu, hearing his wife praising him so, felt it sowhat awkward. However, rare as it was for her to show such intention, he didn’t mind, not wanting to dampen her enthusiasm.
“Since you know how good your husband is, then treat better from now on, and be a little more like a wife. Look at other people’s daughters-in-law, none of them throw tantrums as easily as you do; your antics have nearly worn out my patience,” Han Yu said, seeing how submissive and compliant his wife was, so he voiced what was on his mind, hoping she would learn and improve, and then his life would be even more perfect.
Would Su Wenyue listen? Of course not!
“Oh Han Yu, so you’ve been harboring such thoughts, complaining that I’m not as gentle as other n’s wives, all those pretty words you spoke were just clever talk. I knew it, all those words were just to deceive , weren’t they? Once I grow old and lose my beauty, when I’m not pretty at all anymore, you’ll definitely not want ,” Su Wenyue, who had just been so docile and obedient, suddenly changed her tune, her large eyes staring roundly at Han Yu.
Su Wenyue naturally knew her own shortcomings, but she was doing it intentionally, with the right asure, knowing where to draw the line and not overstepping her boundaries. n have their inherent flaws; if you do everything too well, they might take you for granted, deeming it as expected, whereas if you occasionally show so temperant, display a little anger, they will indulge you. Occasionally when you act understanding, they will think all the more highly of you.
Han Yu was sowhat exasperated by his wife’s sudden change of mood but couldn’t deny that she was quite adorable even when being capricious, unlike the shrewish won outside who disgusted people. Luckily, his wife wasn’t always like this, mostly just being willful in private without outsiders around, not causing him to lose face, so a bit of indulgence was no big deal.
Just as he saw his wife looking at him with an accusatory stare and was about to say sothing to soothe her, a knock ca from outside the door, no doubt one of his subordinates with so news to report.
Su Wenyue knew Han Yu had serious matters to attend to. She quickly adjusted her expression, stood up from his lap, and moved aside, giving off the perfect image of a dutiful wife. She was quite concerned about maintaining a good front, no matter how she and Han Yu behaved privately, she absolutely would not let herself act frivolously in public. Won of this era valued dignity, especially as the mistress of a household; frivolous behavior would make her the butt of jokes, damaging not just her own reputation but also causing Han Yu to lose face.
The subordinate, seeing the mistress was present, hastened to give his respects. He stated his purpose briefly before passing the news he had co with to Han Yu, then left upon receiving Han Yu’s gesture to do so.
“It’s a ssage from cousin, how are Father and Mother doing? We haven’t visited them for such a long ti; the world is just too chaotic these days,” Su Wenyue said. To be honest, she didn’t have much affection in her heart for her parents-in-law, but they were Han Yu’s Father and Mother, and she couldn’t disrespect or disregard them. The question was sincere, for if they were not doing well, Han Yu would be unsettled, and if Han Yu was unsettled, so would she be.
Apparently, Su Hengjing was originally supposed to et up with Han Yu on Su Wenyue’s request, but Han Yu had his own plans, and at that mont, it wasn’t the right ti for Su Hengjing to appear. Additionally, sothing ca up with Han Yu’s parents, making imdiate arrangents difficult, so Su Hengjing offered to deal with the situation instead. Su Hengjing’s ssage must be about Han Yu’s parents, wondering now how it was being handled…
