Chapter 1475: Chapter 1470: Please, Divorce Miaoyan
But when she thought of the hardships Su Miaoyan had recently endured, she immediately stopped thinking further.
Finally having a family reunion, although Su Hao was still recovering from his injuries, Su Qingzhi felt joy in his heart and drank a couple more cups. During the meal, Xiao Yu offered him a toast, and he happily drank a few more.
Until evening, Xiao Yu was to return to Qilin Garden, and Su Miaoyan followed his wheelchair, leaving the hall together.
Madam Yin hurriedly chased after them, âMiaoyan, where are you going?â
âIâm going back to Qilin Garden with brother Yu. He said that after tidying up, he will take me home,â Su Miaoyanâs eyes were clear, her lips curved in a smile.
Despite the setbacks, it did not diminish her spiritual energy.
As long as she was by Xiao Yuâs side, she could still smile so happily.
âThis⊠Youâve been out of bed for quite some time today, you should rest properly, better not to tire yourself with traveling. Just stay at the Marquisâs Manor tonight, you can return another day!â Madam Yin quickly objected.
Under the night sky, Xiao Yuâs gaze became even murkier and unfathomable.
Madam Yin felt very anxious. She couldnât make decisions for Xiao Yu, but she desperately hoped he would agree to her pleas during the day.
Donât drag Su Miaoyan back to that dangerous place of Xiao family!
Her temperament wonât fit being the mistress of the house at Xiaoâs.
Su Miaoyan shook her head, âMother, I want to go with brother Yu now. I have so many things I want to tell him. Besides, I have been married for so long, I cannot always stay at my parentsâ home.â
Su Miaoyanâs face blushed, with the mindset of a young girl, holding onto Xiao Yuâs hand, unwilling to let go.
Madam Yin knew, if she went with Xiao Yu, how could she return again?
The dangers of Xiaoâs family, and the suffering she had previously enduredâŠ
Madam Yin nervously clutched her handkerchief, her eyes pleading as she looked at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yuâs eyes were deep. He did not respond to Madam Yin, but holding Su Miaoyanâs hand, he spoke solemnly, âYanâer, be good. Iâm going back to clean up Qilin Garden. It will be quite noisy with some arrangements. Wait for me at home, and once I am done, I will come and fetch you.â
Su Miaoyan puffed up her cheeks, visibly disappointed, âBut I want to be with brother YuâŠâ
To make up for the days they had been apart!
She also had a secret to tell him, about something that happened in the village.
She knew he must have misunderstood, as did everyone else, but she only wanted to gently explain to Xiao Yu alone, to tell him quietly.
Xiao Yu held her hand and simply said firmly, âListen to me.â
Now, his overwhelming presence was suffocating, and those two simple words weighed heavily on Su Miaoyanâs heart, making her start to feel frightened.
She muttered softly, âBrother YuâŠâ
But Xiao Yu still did not intend to take her with him, and she, however disappointed, had no choice but to turn around and go back to her room.
But when it was time to leave, she hugged Xiao Yu, bowed her head and kissed him, âBrother Yu, you must not forget me, you have to come and take me back, I am married to you, you canât abandon me.â
Her heart always felt unusual.
Xiao Yu promised, âOkay.â
Only with his promise, did Su Miaoyan reluctantly leave.
Madam Yin sent a personal maid to escort Su Miaoyan back, she blocked Xiao Yuâs way with an anxious look, âXiao Yu! Young Master Xiao, as a mother-in-law, Iâm begging you! Please let Miaoyan go, donât bring her back to the Xiao family anymore, I beg you!â
Madam Yin bent her knees, bowed before him â a posture she hadnât even assumed before Su Qingzhi.
Xiao Yu took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to her, âI will have someone stay in Jiang Du City to protect her, I will protect her for life.â
But if being by his side meant harm, he would rather give her peace for life.
Madam Yin took the letter, unfolded it, and saw it was a divorce letter written by Xiao Yu.
She cried tears of joy, and though feeling somewhat ashamed, she still bowed her head and thanked Xiao Yu.
All she hoped for was her daughterâs safety; she was being selfish, but that was all the selfishness she could afford.
Xiao Yu returned to Qilin Garden.
His figure disappeared, then hidden Qin Wan stepped out.
She grew up with Madam Yin and they had both married into the Marquisâs Manor, being sisters-in-law for many years, she knew Madam Yin all too well.
She supported Madam Yinâs arm, sighing deeply, âWhy must you do this? In this world, what mother-in-law kneels before her son-in-law like this? Is this the outcome you wanted?â
Qin Wan looked at the divorce letter in her hand with pain for Su Miaoyan.
The child was so fond of Xiao Yu, revealing her true affection openly in front of Su Qingzhi; how could they meddle and separate them?
Tears that Madam Yin had held back for a long time fell at last as she walked hand in hand with Qin Wan in the deserted courtyard.
She said, âYou donât understand, when I saw Miaoyan heavily injured and brought back, hanging by a thread, I really hated myself for not being ruthless enough to agree to marry her off to Xiao Yu. What sort of person Xiao Yu is, and how perilous the Xiao family is, is it something our daughter can handle? Hanâer is so smart, a prime example among noble young ladies, yet she was tormented in the princeâs mansion in Yongâan County, lost half her life escaping there; how could I bear to let Miaoyan stay in the Xiao family? Compared in beauty and intelligence, she does not match up to Yingxue; in terms of tactics and wit, she does not compare to Hanâer, how could she survive in the Xiao family?â
Because she loved Xiao Yu deeply, when the time came for Xiao Yu to solidify the Xiao familyâs power and for the familyâs benefit, he would inevitably have to take more concubines to have children. How could her simple-mindedness cope then?
After listening to her statement, Qin Wan felt deeply depressed, recalling Su Hanâs hardships, she cried again in pain, âHanâer is indeed lucky, protected by the empress, now living good days, our MiaoyanâŠâ
She looked up at the night sky; the silent moon was bright, the moonlight cold, just as her heart felt bleak, âThe family Miaoyan marries into must not be too high-profile, especially those far away where our Marquisâs Manor canât reach. If something happens, not to speak of the Marquisâs Manor, even the empress might not be able to save her in time. Relying on men in all things is ultimately unreliable.â
The elders could see that Su Miaoyan and Xiao Yu truly loved each other.
But over the decades they had seen, how many truly loving couples had met with unhappy endings?
Not every passionate man has the capability of Chu Yihan, nor is every woman as free-spirited as Su Yingxue.
Moreover, their own Yingxue becoming the empress had also been fraught with bumps and many trials!
Holding the divorce letter in her hand, Madam Yin cried with red eyes, âAfter Xiao Yu leaves, I will slowly tell her, she might be heartbroken and cry for a while, but compared to her life, these things are nothing. I only wish for her safety, not for her to be unlucky like my unfortunate grandson.â
