Chapter 47 - Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Let’s Talk (2/2)
Hearing their daughter’s response, Mr. and Mrs. Wang Desheng sighed in their hearts but grew even more worried. Neither of their children was much like them; both were stubborn and strong-willed, and their advice seemed futile.
Mrs. Wang reassured her parents then turned toward her silent elder brother, Wang Chenglin, and said, “Brother, although today’s plan didn’t succeed, don’t worry, I will find another way. There are still a few days before the gambling debt is due, and I will find a way to get the money to you before then. Just stay at home and don’t wander around causing Father and Mother to worry, okay?”
“Sister, now that you’re pregnant, stop worrying about my troubles. I can handle my own issues. Just take care of yourself. Considering what happened today the Han family already has an opinion about you, and if you clash with that Miss Su again, you definitely won’t come out ahead. Just focus on giving birth to my little nephew, securing your position in the Han family is the most important thing, ” Chenglin responded, knowing his sister’s intentions yet feeling worried, though he had no other alternative but to let her be mindful.
“Brother, as if I didn’t know you. Besides our eldest uncle’s family, we don’t have any wealthy relatives. Our eldest aunt is as she is, and Fang Ru has already been kicked out by the Su family; she definitely won’t lend us money. Where else could you possibly come up with a solution? We are siblings, and as your sister, could I just watch you driven into a corner by those people at the Gambling house?” Mrs. Wang insisted.
Overwhelmed with defeat, Wang Chenglin collapsed to the ground, also truly at a loss.
“Don’t worry. The child in my womb is my reliance right now. He is the Han family’s precious eldest grandson. With him, even Su Wenyue must yield to me some respect. Besides, this was all Su Wenyue’s trickery to begin with. She won’t be able to get away so easily. You just go back and wait for my message,” Mrs. Wang reassured firmly.
“Alright then, just be careful yourself, and don’t push too hard. After all, the baby in your stomach is the most important. Even if you do take on that Miss Su, be careful not to harm the child inside you,” said Chenglin, worrying inwardly but devoid of alternatives, he could only advise his sister to measure her actions.
While Mrs. Wang was talking with her mother’s family, Mrs. Yang had already instructed Mrs. Li to slaughter a chicken, which was now being stewed in the kitchen. Regardless of their feelings towards Mrs. Wang, they could not neglect her precious grandson. Regardless of whether Mrs. Wang’s earlier show was genuine or not, the old doctor in the village had said she needed to recuperate and be nourished properly after her exhaustion.
Having confirmed that Mrs. Wang was alright, and considering the Wang family wanted a private word, everyone went about their own business, and Su Wenyue accompanied Han Yu back to their room.
“Husband, what’s wrong, what are you doing?” Su Wenyue exclaimed, caught off guard.
Once back in the room, as Su Wenyue was about to retrieve something from the box, Han Yu suddenly embraced her from behind and placed her on the bed, sitting face-to-face with her.
“Daughter-in-law, it seems we need to have a serious talk,” Han Yu remembered his intention to properly communicate with his wife upon returning, immediately setting about it by seizing the moment to sit and face her, realizing the longer he postponed, the more complicated the issues would become.
“Ah, Husband, what do you want to discuss with me?” Su Wenyue found herself confused by Han Yu’s sudden actions.. Seeing his gaze fixed intently on her as if he wanted to peer into her thoughts made her uncomfortable, and she instinctively fidgeted with the hem of her clothes.
