Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Cannot Tolerate

Han Yu received permission and immediately rushed home. He was originally supposed to be away for two days, but now it was already the third day, and his wife must have been worried at home. It was only when he received his mission and set off that he learned of the danger involved. By then, it was too late to inform his wife; besides, he didn’t want to worry her.

Actually, the one sent by Su Wenyue had left just a bit earlier than Han Yu. When Han Yu returned to the military camp, the person sent by Su Wenyue had just managed to gather some information and was on their way back.

“Are you sure about the information?” Grandma Chen’s expression was somewhat grave, feeling as though there might really be something like telepathy in the world. Madam had been restless these past two days, always worried. As expected, the master had encountered danger outside.

“I was afraid of hearing it wrong, so I asked several people deliberately, and they all said the same thing. They said that our master offended someone he shouldn’t have in the camp, leading to someone framing him, and that’s why he was assigned such a dangerous task. Those are all rioters, who would fight with no regard for their lives. The past two times people were sent, more than half were injured or killed. This time, they sent our master, and he hasn’t returned yet. I don’t know if he has encountered danger,” Cheng Hai said with worry, hoping for their master’s safety, as their master was kind and they, as servants, only hoped for the very best for their master.

“What, what should we do?” Grandma Chen was so frightened by this news that her face turned pale. Madam was still pregnant with a child. If anything happened to the master, she didn’t dare to think further.

Nervously shaken, Grandma Chen felt out of her depth and immediately sent someone to call for Aunt Li to consult together.

Having experienced many significant events, Aunt Li, although also deeply worried upon hearing such news, managed to maintain much more composure: “Everyone stay calm. No matter what you think, do not show any signs of it outwardly. Continue as usual with whatever you should be doing. Madam is still carrying a child, and twins are inherently risky, any shock is dangerous. Therefore, we must keep this from Madam for now!”

Although Aunt Li had a great respect for Han Yu and usually followed his instructions, in critical moments, she considered Su Wenyue’s safety to be of utmost importance and thus had already given these orders.

“But doesn’t Madam have to be informed about such matters? Someone must make decisions on the master’s behalf, and we, as servants, are not in a position to decide for the master,” Grandma Chen still felt it was inappropriate.

“Why don’t we go? All of us have some martial arts skills. Although we are not as skilled as the master, we are stronger than ordinary people. The master might just be in need of help. Helping out would certainly be better than just anxiously waiting,” said Cheng Hai. These caretakers had been sent over by Madam Su and were deeply loyal to the Su Family. Now that they had joined the Han Family, their loyalty lay with Han Yu and Su Wenyue. When their master was in trouble, it was natural for them to stand up.

“Who will be responsible for Madam’s safety if you all go? The world is becoming more chaotic, and it’s not very peaceful here either. Remember the theft attempt just the other day, when people tried to climb over the wall? Xiao Xi can handle herself, but after all, she’s still a young girl. We must leave someone behind.”

“That definitely won’t do; we can’t spare anyone from home. With Madam’s advancing pregnancy, we must ensure her safety. As for the master’s situation, Cheng Hai, you immediately go to the Su Mansion to report. With the Eldest Young Master also back, the Old Master and Young Master will certainly think of a way to rescue the master. And the master may not be in trouble. The message Cheng Hai heard was just that the master hasn’t returned; we shouldn’t panic first,” Aunt Li arranged calmly, and Cheng Hai immediately mounted a horse to go report at the Su Mansion. Little did they know that Han Yu would return soon after that. At first, Grandma Chen thought she was hallucinating due to her old eyes, but when Han Yu approached, she finally confirmed that Han Yu had returned.

“Master, you’ve returned!” Grandma Chen, seeing Han Yu disheveled but unharmed, was so excited that she nearly broke into tears.

“Grandma Chen, what’s this?” Han Yu looked at her with some confusion.

Wiping her tears, Grandma Chen hurriedly explained, “Yesterday, Madam couldn’t wait for the master’s return and was very uneasy. So, early this morning, we sent Cheng Hai to the camp, only to learn that the master had encountered danger and hadn’t returned yet. We all thought something had happened to the master, so I got a bit emotional when I suddenly saw you.”

Han Yu’s heart tightened upon hearing this, and a fierce look and murderous intent flashed across his face, “What do you mean? Does Madam know about this!”

Grandma Chen’s legs went weak with fear. Although the master was usually authoritative, he had never been this frightening, “No, no, Madam is pregnant, and we were afraid that knowing this would distress her, so we have kept it from Madam. Cheng Hai has already gone to the Su Mansion to report, asking the Old Master and Eldest Young Master to bring help for the master’s rescue.”

“Good, it was right to keep it from her. You’ve handled this well, there will be rewards later,” Han Yu had been worried for his wife’s safety, but hearing that they had kept it from her, he eased his concern. The servants sent from his mother-in-law were indeed reliable in a crisis. Hearing about Cheng Hai’s message to the Su Mansion, Han Yu also sent someone to the Su Mansion to prevent his wife’s family from worrying.

“I was terrified and didn’t know what to do at the time; it was all Aunt Li’s instructions,” although Grandma Chen didn’t have Aunt Li’s capabilities or her calmness under pressure, she was an honest person who did not take credit for others’ actions. When Han Yu said this, she immediately explained.

At the moment, Han Yu was concerned with things other than these matters; he wanted to see Su Wenyue right away. After hearing that, he nodded and then quickly headed towards the Inner Courtyard.

“Madam, Madam, the master has returned!” Xiao Xi, knowing that Han Yu had come back, immediately ran to bring the good news to Su Wenyue.

“The master is back! That’s wonderful, but is he unharmed?” Aunt Li, who usually kept a stern face, couldn’t help but reveal a rare smile and asked eagerly.

“He’s fine; the master has returned in one piece. He just looks a bit worse for wear; there doesn’t seem to be any injuries. You’ll know when you see him yourself,” Xiao Xi said cheerfully, having been so tense earlier for fear of letting something slip. Now, relieved and happy, she let something slip out.

Su Wenyue found it odd how happy Xiao Xi was about Han Yu’s return. Hearing the conversation between Aunt Li and Xiao Xi, she sensed that something was being kept from her, something to do with Han Yu, and her expression grew stern.

“Aunt Li, what is going on here, are you hiding something from me?” Su Wenyue’s voice was somewhat stern. Even though she knew that Aunt Li and the others were mostly doing it for her own good, afraid that she would get upset and harm the children, such unilateral decisions were not permissible to her. Minor issues were tolerable, but anything concerning Han Yu was a major issue for Su Wenyue.

“This…” Aunt Li was trying to figure out how to explain to Su Wenyue when they heard a resonant voice from the doorway.

“You all can leave; I will discuss this matter with my wife myself,” Han Yu said, allowing Aunt Li to breathe a sigh of relief as she and Xiao Xi promptly left.
