Su Wenyue returned to her room and checked the belongings; it seemed that Mrs. Yang really did come back in time, as the thief hadn’t even managed to pry open a single box, let alone take anything away. The only mishap was Mrs. Yang’s injury, and Su Wenyue saw that Han Yu was still frowning.

“Husband, don’t worry, didn’t the doctor say that Mother’s injury is not serious? As long as she rests well, I have quite a few tonics here. I’ll stew some for Mother later; she will certainly recover soon. Don’t be too concerned.”

Han Yu held Su Wenyue’s warm and soft hand, “I’m not worried, Mother’s injury will heal quickly. Those tonics are your dowry, all rare and valuable items. Keep them for yourself, there’s no need to bring them out. I will go into the mountains and hunt more game to help Mother recover.”

Han Yu appreciated his daughter-in-law’s kindness, but as a man, how could he rely on his daughter-in-law for everything? Han Yu wasn’t that obsolete of a person; there were some things, such as the power of his wife’s parental home, where he wouldn’t shy away from taking advantage or feel inferior, but he definitely wouldn’t be a despicable man who relied solely on his daughter-in-law. It was just a matter of managing the fine line.

“Even if they are valuable, they’re meant to be used. Why should we, as husband and wife, make such clear distinctions between us? As long as Mother’s health can improve quickly, don’t worry. Although I had some unpleasantness with Mother before, I’m not petty and won’t hold a grudge. She just wants to hold a grandson too much, and I can understand her feelings,” Su Wenyue was generous and understanding in front of Han Yu.

“My daughter-in-law really is sensible. But speaking of which, when will you bear me one too? Mother wants a grandson, and I also want a son,” Han Yu said as he rubbed Su Wenyue’s stomach.

“We’ll have one sooner or later. By the way, do you really plan to report this to the authorities?” Although it was her idea, the final decision was Han Yu’s, as he was a deep thinker and didn’t show his thoughts outwardly, making it hard for Su Wenyue to guess what was on his mind.

“That depends on what third son and his wife decide,” Han Yu said only that much and didn’t go on, even though Mrs. Yang’s injury had angered him, and he wanted to punish the thief. But as his mother intended to cover it up and hadn’t told the whole truth, likely out of consideration for Mrs. Wang’s unborn child and not wanting to stir up too much trouble, he had to think it over more, but even without taking the matter to the government, he could use this incident to gain leverage over third son and his wife, so they wouldn’t dare to openly confront his daughter-in-law in the future.

Seeing that Han Yu didn’t want to talk more, Su Wenyue also didn’t ask further. Some things could not be determined by her alone, Han Yu was after all a member of the Han family. Even if he felt little brotherly love for Han Lin, he still had to consider many aspects. However, with Mrs. Yang’s injury, the matter of separating from the family was temporarily impossible to bring up. There was nothing she could do. If she were to mention it now, not only would the Han family members have thoughts about it, even Han Yu might not take it well.

Mrs. Yang came around in the evening, and Su Wenyue personally prepared the medicine and brought it in: “Mother, how are you feeling, any better? Is your head still aching?”
