Chapter 547 - 553: Mother and Son Meet_2

Although the three little ones had been without their Father and Mother these days, everyone’s concern had not diminished. Especially after learning about their Mother’s ordeal, they all cared for the little ones with a sense of pity, fearing they might suffer any grievances. Added to the care from Brother Xing, who looked after his younger brother and sister well, Han Yu and Su Wenyue were relieved to see that their children were healthy and robust.

“They are very sturdy. They’ve grown so much, Mother can hardly carry you all,” Su Wenyue had been grinning foolishly ever since she saw the children. The smile never left her face, as if there was no greater joy in the world.

“Mother, Sister Yu missed you,” Sister Yu was a little clever ghost. Seeing her Elder Brothers being held by their Dad, she quickly took advantage of the situation and nestled into her Mother’s arms.

Han Yu did not stop Sister Yu from jumping into Su Wenyue’s embrace, as he indulged his only daughter more than anyone else. After all, Sister Yu was a girl with a smaller frame and lighter than the boys, so the Daughter-in-law could hold her without tiring too much.

“Mother also missed you all. Have you been well these days?” Although the little ones looked healthy and strong, Su Wenyue still asked routinely, expressing her concern for them.

All three little ones were shrewd and crafty. Hearing Su Wenyue’s question, they glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison.

“Not at all. Without Mother by our side, no one was there to talk to us or tell us stories before sleeping,” Sister Yu said.

“Not at all. Children without their mother are the most pitiful. The neighbors’ kids all say that stepmothers are the scariest. If we get a stepmother, then we’ll have a stepfather. Dad is already so fierce. If he finds a stepmother, we will be beaten to death by our stepfather!” Brother Chen tried to earn Su Wenyue’s pity, even squeezing out a few golden tears, although Mother said, “a man should not lightly shed tears.” However, he just wanted Mother to stay by their side and didn’t notice the darkening expression on his Dad’s face when he heard these words.

Brother Xing silently gave Brother Chen a mental candle from the side. After all, he was young and fearless. No one knew better than he what their Dad was like—someone with a ruthlessly black face, a vengeful heart, and who remembered wrongs. Having offended Daddy, this foolish little one’s days were not going to be easy.

“Mother, we can’t be without you. Please don’t leave us again, okay? We’ll be good and never make you angry again,” Brother Xing, not having the heart to be as rambunctious as the younger ones, also made his stance and thoughts clear, resolutely wanting to keep Mother by their side.

“Alright, alright, don’t worry. This time was an accident. Mother had to leave unavoidably, but I will definitely not leave you again,” Su Wenyue saw how distressed the children were.

“Right, I forgot to ask, where are the people who were looking after you? Where are Nanny and the Servant Girl? Why are you by yourselves here? Could it be that Nanny has not fulfilled her duty?” Han Yu asked, and Su Wenyue’s brows also furrowed tightly as she followed Han Yu to the children’s room.

The three little ones pointed inside the room. Han Yu and Su Wenyue walked in with stern faces. Brother Chen and Sister Yu did not understand, but Brother Xing understood very well. It had been them sneaking out due to their mischievousness; they couldn’t blame everything on Nanny and the Servant Girl. Ever since their Father and Mother had been absent, Nanny had not treated them as well as before, the service was lackluster, and sometimes she even threatened them. However, Nanny was cunning, these little acts all occurred behind the scenes, and in front of others, she behaved differently, which was why no one had realized there was a problem with Nanny before now.

Brother Xing had wanted to change this Nanny, but he was too young and understood that the adults would not agree without a solid reason. Even if he spoke of Nanny’s behavior, it wasn’t certain they would believe a child like him, so he had been enduring until now. Now that his Father and Mother had returned, he could rid them of Nanny without worry. Mother always believed them unconditionally, even though they were only children.

Despite the noise outside, Nanny and the Servant Girl were still sleeping soundly, not even waking when they entered. Su Wenyue’s face turned unsightly. With such people caring for the three little ones, how could she be at peace, especially since Nanny had clearly heard the children’s cries but dismissed them without care, even threatening the children not to disturb her sleep. If it had been only a matter of being asleep earlier, there might have been an excuse, but such behavior turned Han Yu and Su Wenyue’s faces pitch black.

The more spontaneous the action, the more it revealed one’s true nature. Nanny’s subconscious behavior indicated this was her usual treatment of the children. While they had been away, who knew how much abuse the three children had suffered at Nanny’s hands? Just thinking about it made Su Wenyue’s heart ache unbearably as she looked toward Brother Xing.

“Brother Xing, tell Mother, is this wretched servant always like this? Has she bullied you three siblings?”

In front of Mother, Brother Xing had no need to hide, lie, or exaggerate. He simply related the facts to Su Wenyue, who, after hearing, felt an urge to tear Nanny apart. Thankfully, Brother Xing was there and knew how to protect his younger siblings; otherwise, her children might have suffered endlessly.

This Nanny deserved death! Su Wenyue said hatefully. When it came to her children, a mother’s strength knew no bounds. A mother could do anything for her children, and from that moment, Nanny’s tragic fate was sealed. However, with Han Yu present, there was no need for Su Wenyue to act. Han Yu had already dealt with Nanny.

They did not do anything in front of the children, but had a secret guard muffle Nanny’s mouth and drag her away. Nanny, in her sleep, felt discomfort and, before understanding what was happening, was confusedly taken away. By the time she fully woke up, she found herself in a living hell,
