Ah Bin, driving the horse carriage, not only sped up but also spurred the horse to move quickly, soon bringing Doctor Lin, who usually took the Su Family’s pulse, to the Han Family.

Doctor Lin, hearing that something had happened to the Su Family’s Miss, did not dare to delay and hurriedly followed the servant to the Han Family, where he saw that Su Wenyue’s injury was not severe and he breathed a sigh of relief. Nonetheless, he calmed down and carefully diagnosed and treated Su Wenyue.

Doctor Lin checked Su Wenyue’s wound first. Because her strength was not well controlled at the time, the wound looked somewhat frightening, but it was not a major problem and would not threaten her life; at most, it caused some bleeding. Han Yu often went hunting in the mountains, so he could handle such minor injuries very well. Doctor Lin nodded, but his brow furrowed when taking Su Wenyue’s pulse.

Han Yu had been relieved to see that Su Wenyue’s complexion had improved a lot, but upon seeing Doctor Lin’s reaction, his heart tightened again. His wife had been pampered since childhood and inevitably had a delicate body. These days after marrying into the Han Family, she had certainly suffered hardship, and he hoped nothing serious had come of it.

“Doctor Lin, how is my wife?” Han Yu barely managed to wait until Doctor Lin finished taking Su Wenyue’s pulse before he asked anxiously.

Doctor Lin pondered for a moment before saying, “There is no major issue, but she is somewhat weakened and has been frightened. She needs to rest well, lie in bed when possible, avoid strenuous and heavy tasks, and be careful with her diet. If there is any discomfort, have someone call me immediately.”

Having known the Su Family for many years, Doctor Lin had developed more than a casual relationship. Acting with Su Wenyue’s best interests in mind, he did not mention some uncertainties but still gave numerous instructions to be safe. Seeing how anxious Han Yu was about Su Wenyue, those instructions should prevent any problems.

However, Han Yu felt even more worried after hearing Doctor Lin. Although it was said there was no major problem, the detailed instructions from Doctor Lin had to be based on some consideration and reason. Moreover, if special food was prepared for his wife once or twice, it might be fine, but if it happened too often, others might object. Even with Mrs. Wang pregnant, she did not receive any special treatment, just an occasional stewed soup or boiled eggs. He could often bring back roasted game, but roasted food was too fiery and not particularly nutritious.

Hearing the doctor say his wife was weak, Han Yu’s current indulgence made him wish he could protect her with utmost care, but considering the current situation of the Han Family, where everyone lived together, doing too much was not good for Su Wenyue. Han Yu’s kindness was not just for appearance’s sake but truly considerate, and thinking this way, the idea of dividing the family came up again in his mind.

After Doctor Lin finished instructing Han Yu, he only prescribed a few tonics for Su Wenyue, which contained gentle, nourishing medicinal ingredients without any intense medicinals—as using those in excess might not be good for Su Wenyue herself. 𝓯𝓇𝘦𝘦𝑤ℯ𝓫𝑛𝓸𝑣𝓮𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓶

Han Yu, except for some commonly used wound medicine, did not know much about medicinal materials and could not see what was special about these prescriptions. Nevertheless, Doctor Lin’s reaction was somewhat out of the ordinary. Under normal circumstances, with Han Yu’s astuteness and meticulousness, he would have surely noticed Doctor Lin’s unusualness. However, today, worried about Su Wenyue more than anything else, he did not focus on other matters. It is said that too much concern leads to chaos, and so it was with Han Yu.

Su Wenyue also failed to notice the issue, simply feeling that Doctor Lin was making a fuss over nothing. She knew her own body, and today, she had merely received a fright, hardly weakened by it. Yet, even if she wanted to argue at this moment, seeing Han Yu in this state would mean her words would fall on deaf ears, so she had to obediently heed the doctor’s instructions.

“Thank you, Doctor Lin. We will take good care of Lady Yue, and we appreciate your efforts.” When Doctor Lin was giving his instructions, he did not exclude other Han family members. Old Man Han and Mrs. Yang, already concerned about their daughter-in-law’s pale and bedraggled appearance, did not find the doctor’s words to be an overstatement and hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Wang, although not showing herself much, had always kept an eye on the situation outside. Learning that Jiang Chunlan had indeed moved against Su Wenyue, and with such a method, Mrs. Wang felt not the slightest bit excessive but instead a suppressed excitement and a sense of revenge fulfilled. To a significant degree, Jiang Chunlan’s hatred for Su Wenyue was spurred by her machinations, and it turned out that the foolish Jiang Chunlan could be somewhat useful.

Seeing Su Wenyue carried back by Han Yu, Mrs. Wang’s first reaction, like Jiang Chunlan’s, was a feeling of triumph. However, the outcome clearly disappointed her, and even angered her. She had gone to great lengths to prompt the foolish Jiang Chunlan to act, yet all it led to was a minor injury to Su Wenyue. Furthermore, instead of suffering a setback, Su Wenyue’s reputation had improved and her chaste and virtuous nature had been affirmed by Han family members.

Ah Bin, part of the Su Family, did not forget to send a message to the Su Family when going to summon the doctor. Not long after Doctor Lin left, Master Su and Madam Su hurried to the Han Family, both visibly anxious. Learning that their daughter had only sustained minor injuries and was not in grave danger, they were still deeply distressed.

Master Su, after all, being a man was a bit more sanguine. Madam Su, however, felt differently. Though not unreasonable, she did not look kindly upon Han Yu. Ever since her Daughter had married into the Han Family, she had faced constant hardships, which was a source of great concern for her Mother.

“Mother, don’t worry,” Su Wenyue reassured Master Su and Madam Su with a smile. “It’s just a minor injury, I’m fine, and you’re both unduly alarmed.”

Upon returning home and discovering that his younger sister had been in an accident, Su Hengxuan followed swiftly to the Han Family. After confirming that his younger sister had not sustained any serious injuries, he was then filled with indignation toward the brazen bandits.

“Younger sister, rest assured, these audacious people, daring to target you, I won’t let a single one of them off. You need to recover well, and get your strength back. I can’t stand to see you looking so unwell. By the way, younger sister, do you know who those people were?”

“Yes, my good girl, who are those criminals exactly? To have the audacity to lay hands on my Daughter!” In the wake of concern for his Daughter, Master Su also pursued information about the whole incident.

Han Yu had not yet had the chance to ask, but upon hearing this, he also stared intently at Su Wenyue, hoping to learn more from her.

“I’m not very clear on that, I just remember those few bandits looking familiar. They did not seem like habitual criminals, but a few idle young guys, apparently targeting me specifically. I recognized two of them from somewhere, perhaps from some past encounter, though I can’t remember exactly. For specifics, Ah Bin was there too, Daddy and Second Brother may inquire from him.”

Su Wenyue was aware that Jiang Chunlan was behind this, and this had been confirmed by the bandits themselves, yet she did not speak the truth of the matter. After all, there was no proof, and since Jiang Chunlan was her Mother-in-law’s niece, it was better these matters not come from her own mouth.
