Chapter 137 Su Nian'an and her husband seek refuge with Su Yinyin
Su Nian'an gently shook her head and said softly, "Husband, don't blame yourself. This isn't just your fault." With that, she took her husband's hand and led him into the house.
After entering the house, Su Nian'an took out a purse from the cabinet and handed it to her husband. "I embroidered this a few days ago. I put some calming herbs inside. I imagine you've been feeling troubled lately."
Her husband took the purse and held Su Nian'an's hand tightly. "Nian'an, you are always so understanding."
Su Nian'an sighed: "Husband, if I am unable to have children, we shall divorce and you may marry another woman."
Looking at Su Nian'an's fair and beautiful face, Lin Jie couldn't bear to part with her! His wife was not only virtuous and beautiful, but also capable.
If the two of them divorce, where will he find such a beautiful and virtuous wife?
If he had to choose between his child and Su Nian'an, he would unwaveringly choose Su Nian'an. Because he likes her, and now he is hopelessly in love with her.
During the two days Su Nian'an was away, he missed her terribly. Only then did he realize that he truly couldn't live without her.
Lin Jie hurriedly said, "Nian'an, don't say such things. I only have eyes for you in this life."
Su Nian'an was moved, but still worried: "But my husband, the Lin family cannot be without an heir!"
Lin Jie pulled her into his arms: "I don't care about any of that. At worst, we can adopt a child. Besides, my eldest and second eldest brothers have so many sons; they will be the heirs of the Lin family."
Su Nian'an tentatively suggested, "Husband, why don't we go to the capital? We can hire people to cultivate our fields."
"Let's go to the capital and start a small business. Besides, the doctors there are highly skilled; I'm sure we'll have a child soon."
Lin Jie frowned and voiced his concerns: "Go to Beijing? But what can I do in Beijing? All I know is farming."
Su Nian'an continued, "Husband, there's a saying that goes, 'Where there's a will, there's a way!' When we get to the capital, I'll have my elder sister help you find work."
Seeing that Lin Jie was still hesitating, Su Nian'an continued, "Besides, I just met my relatives and want to spend more time with my sisters. We'll go back to the village when I'm about to give birth. My eldest brother and second brother are there!"
Last night, Su Yinyin and Su Nian'an had differing opinions. It would be even better if Lin Jie could be brought to Beijing so the two could be transferred together.
Lin Jie's heart wavered after hearing Su Nian'an's words. He knew his wife missed her family, and he genuinely wanted to cure her.
Lin Jie thought about Su Nian'an's words and they made sense. The Lin family really didn't lack sons or grandsons.
After a moment of contemplation, he slowly said, "Nian'an, since you're so eager to go to the capital, let's give it a try. But if things don't go well, we can always come back."
Su Nian'an's eyes lit up, and she hugged Lin Jie tightly: "Husband, thank you."
That evening, Lin Jie went to her father-in-law and mother-in-law's house. It's unclear how Lin Jie managed to persuade them. After resting at home for two days, the two of them, carrying only a few belongings, headed to Beijing.
After dinner at the Su residence, Su Yinyin entered her spatial dimension and leisurely read a novel. Just then, her baby ran over quickly, "Mommy, hurry, let's set off quickly! There's a gold mine in that mountain!"
Su Yinyin looked at the baby and before she could react, the baby pushed her into the room and told her to change her clothes.
The two followed the same route as before. On the way, the baby told her, "We took the treasure, but there is still a gold mine there. They have finished mining it and are preparing to move the gold."
Su Yinyin's eyes lit up when she heard about gold mines. No one dislikes having too much gold.
So Su Yinyin sped up and headed towards the mine!
Inside the Yong'an Prince's Mansion, Su Yinhan was throwing a tantrum at her maid, "Ugh! Why is my face covered in wrinkles again? This miracle doctor is all talk and no action, a fraud."
The trusted nanny stepped forward to comfort her, saying, "Didn't you say that the medicine the divine physician gave you would only last a few days? To fully recover, you still need those special medicinal herbs, right?"
Su Yinhan was momentarily dazed, but when she came to her senses, she remembered the divine physician's words: "Right, right, how could I forget what the divine physician said! It's been so many days already, no, I must hurry and go ask the prince if the divine physician has collected all the medicinal herbs he requested?"
Su Yinhan stormed towards the prince's study.
As soon as they reached the door, they heard hushed conversations coming from inside. "Your Highness, I am now pregnant and I am afraid I will be unable to serve you in the future. I hope Your Highness will be lenient with me."
"Your Highness, please focus on nurturing the child in your womb. He is my first child, and I am very much looking forward to it." The prince's voice was filled with a hint of doting affection.
Hearing their conversation, Su Yinhan was filled with rage. In her mind, she cursed repeatedly, "That bitch, that bitch is pregnant! How dare she, how dare she!"
Su Yinhan had an impulse to push open the door and confront the prince. The old nanny standing to the side quickly pulled her back and shook her head at Su Yinhan.
Su Yinhan understood what the nanny meant and suppressed her temper. She knew that she could only submit for now and deal with these vile people slowly once her face had healed. So she raised her slender hand and gently knocked on the door.
Prince Yong'an was getting impatient: "Who is it!"
Su Yinhan cleared her throat and said in a sweet voice, "Your Highness, it's me. I have something to discuss with you!"
"come in?"
When Su Yinhan entered the study, the prince and princess were both taken aback for a moment.
The prince couldn't help but ask, "Why are you wearing a veil again?"
Seeing this, Su Yinhan cried, "Your Highness, my face has turned like that again! Waaaaah, Your Highness, how are things going with what you promised me?"
Upon hearing her words, the prince stood up. "Yinhan, don't worry. Most of the medicinal herbs have been found, but we are still missing one extremely rare one. However, I have already sent people to search for it."
Su Yinhan said coquettishly, "Your Highness must hurry, my beauty can't wait."
Su Yinhan originally wanted to question the princess about her pregnancy. But after thinking about it, she decided to pretend she didn't know so she could make her move.
Having considered the pros and cons and with the prince's assurance, Su Yinhan decided to put the matter aside for the time being and obediently returned to her courtyard.
This action made Princess Yong'an uneasy! It seems she needs to be even more careful in the future!
Meanwhile, Regent Zhou Yuan, accompanied by his subordinates, reached the foot of the mountain. He discovered that the number of guards inside was several times greater than before. Regent Zhou Yuan frowned slightly, his suspicions deepening.
He whispered to his men, "Go and find out why the guards here have suddenly increased."
The subordinate obeyed and left. A short while later, the scout returned to report that they could not get close.
Zhou Yuan sneered, "I'd like to see what you're up to!"
He led his men to cleverly bypass the guards and sneak into the mountains.
Upon reaching a secluded cave, they heard sounds of fighting coming from inside. Zhou Yuan gave a signal, and the group quietly approached.
Inside the cave, a group of men in black were seen attacking a woman in white.
Although the woman was petite, her moves were fierce. Seeing this, Zhou Yuan nodded, and his guards drew their swords and rushed into the fray, rescuing the woman. The woman looked up at Zhou Yuan, her eyes filled with gratitude.
They were also stunned by Zhou Yuan's domineering aura and handsome face.
