Han Yu was entirely preoccupied with Su Wenyue; seeing those young guys flee, he didn’t try to stop them but instead rushed over and embraced Su Wenyue in his arms.
“Lady Yue, daughter-in-law, how are you feeling? Hang in there! I will take you to see a doctor immediately,” Han Yu said. Seeing the wound on Su Wenyue’s neck, he dared not move her, for fear that any movement would worsen her injury. For a moment, he stood there frozen, holding Su Wenyue.
Those men had run off, and Ah Bin’s injuries weren’t too serious. He immediately ran over to check on Su Wenyue. Seeing Han Yu’s reaction, he was somewhat speechless. Wasn’t the uncle supposed to be capable and formidable? But now he seemed at a loss, apparently overwhelmed by concern for the Miss.
“Uncle, the Miss is injured. We should dress her wound first and then ask a doctor to treat her. It’s no use leaving her like this,” Ah Bin, fearing further delay would worsen her condition, couldn’t help but speak up to remind him.
“Right, get a doctor. We’re not far from the village. I will stop the bleeding for Lady Yue first and take her home to lie down. You drive the horse carriage and go get the doctor immediately.”
Han Yu now realized his own folly, primarily because Su Wenyue’s pale face was frightening. He panicked, but after a careful examination, he discovered her injuries weren’t as serious as he thought; she had no wounds other than on her neck.
Since they weren’t far from the village and to avoid the jostling of the horse carriage, Han Yu simply decided to carry her home to the Han Family stable, also allowing Ah Bin to fetch the doctor more quickly.
“What has happened? Fourth daughter-in-law was fine when she left the house; what’s the matter?” Han family members, seeing Han Yu carrying the pale and weak Su Wenyue, were all surprised and gathered around. Old Man Han and Mrs. Yang asked with concern, not understanding why she was in good spirits going to her mother’s family this morning, but now she returned in such a state. Moreover, the location of Fourth daughter-in-law’s wound made them think more.
Jiang Chunlan, who usually roamed outside until evening, happened to be at home today. Seeing Han Yu carrying Su Wenyue back, a strange glint flashed across her face, and deep in her eyes, there was a hint of triumph and madness. Now that Su Wenyue’s reputation was compromised, she hoped to see how arrogant she could be.
Jiang Chunlan harbored pain and hatred in her heart; nobody knew the price she had paid to deal with Su Wenyue. To have those men target Su Wenyue, she had been terribly deceived, even losing the most important thing for a woman. How could she allow Su Wenyue to live well and be doted on by her Cousin? If she was to suffer a grim fate, she wished the same for Su Wenyue. Surely, after this incident, her Cousin would no longer fancy a woman of tarnished virtue like Su Wenyue.
