Chapter 27 - Chapter 27: Chapter 27: Unthinkable (2/2)
Upon hearing her words, Master Su knew that Old Master and his own judgment had not been wrong; Han Yu was destined to achieve great things. However, his daughter’s attitude caused some worry and disapproval; if the couple had a good relationship in the dream, his daughter would not be reacting this way. It was clear that, influenced by her dream, she was guarded and distanced from her Son-in-law, which was not a healthy state for a marriage.
“Yueyue, you and Han Yu are Husband and Wife; do you understand what that means? If there are no accidents, you will be together for a lifetime, aging together, bearing children. From the moment you married Han Yu, your relationship with him became inseparable. As the saying goes, ‘When the
Husband prospers, the Wife flourishes.’ If he is well, so can you be.”
Su Wenyue nodded; this was precisely her thinking, “I understand all that. That’s why I’ve been nice to him, and I also asked our family to be good to him.”
“That’s all on the surface. You know in your heart what it’s all for. Han Yu’s future achievements will surely not be modest, will they? You want to make a good connection between him and your mother’s family, right? So you’re not truly kind to him. What you show in your daily life is nothing more than a way to use him, isn’t that so?” Even though his daughter had changed a lot, Master Su could still guess what was on her mind.
“Father, don’t make it sound so ugly. What do you mean, ‘using’? He is your Son-in-law; isn’t it natural for him to look after you all?”
“It is natural, but whether he does it willingly or out of obligation makes a big difference. Moreover, if a marriage is maintained only by that little sense of obligation, how long can it last? The relationship between two people needs to be nurtured with care, not just through superficial efforts. Your Son-in-law is clearly no simple man; he has his own plans. Can’t he feel whether you are sincere towards him?”
“Don’t be too clever. You think, just because of those incidents in your dream, you can have everything under control. Only by truly being good to him from the heart can you make him keep you in his heart and treat you sincerely.”
Master Su spoke with deep meaning, hoping his daughter would understand. Otherwise, even with the examples from before, nothing would change.
Master Su’s words hit Su Wenyue like a sudden enlightenment, and she suddenly realized her errors. She had always blamed Han Yu for not treating her well enough, holding a grudge in her heart. But what about her own actions? From the very beginning, she had not treated Han Yu as her Husband. The actions she took were even too excessive, completely unbecoming of a Wife, let alone being sincere. No wonder Han Yu became indifferent; his attitude towards her was, in fact, predictable.
Thinking it over, Han Yu had actually treated her quite well, especially now. Although she was motivated by utilitarian purposes, their relationship had improved a lot, and Han Yu showed her more care and consideration. If things continued like this, and as long as she put in the effort, they could indeed have a good life together.
“Yes, daddy, I understand now. I was wrong before, but now that I’ve realized my mistakes, I will definitely live well with Han Yu..”
