Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

As Su Shixuan's official position rose higher and higher over the years, Su's mother became more and more disgusted with He Shumin.

Although Su Shixuan is talented, he also needs to be promoted in the officialdom, so Su's mother naturally does not dare to go too far.

But things are different now. Not only is He Zhiyuan old, but his superiors have no intention of promoting him. On the contrary, Su Shixuan is highly regarded. Perhaps it won't be long before he is promoted to vice minister, and it is not impossible for him to be promoted to minister in a few years.

As a result, Su's mother's attitude towards He Shumin took a sharp turn for the worse, and she found different ways to bully her every day.

In addition, her son had been under the spell of her and quarreled with her every other day because of her. If it weren't for her niece who was with him, Su's mother felt that she would have died of anger.

Thinking of this, Mother Su quickly asked Lin Wan'er, "Have you finished what I asked you to do?"

Lin Wan'er looked worried and spoke softly, "Don't worry, aunt, I've done it. But I'm still a little uncomfortable. If this matter is exposed and my cousin knows about it, he will definitely blame me."

"What are you afraid of? You know your cousin's temper. Even if he knew, you are his cousin, so if you cry a few words, he will soften his heart. Do you really want to make a scene with you and me?"

Su's mother was not afraid at all. She knew her son well. Even if the truth was revealed, she only needed to cry a few words and make a fuss, and he would be helpless.

"When will cousin be back today?"

"He wrote to me a few days ago saying he would be back. If I count the days, it should be about today. He will be happy to know that you and I come to pray for him every day."

Lin Wan'er lowered her head shyly, "I pray for my cousin because I sincerely hope that he will get well."

"Of course, you silly girl, it's a pity that your cousin is unlucky. If he had listened to me and married you in his early years, there would be no He Shumin."

Su's mother completely forgot that when He Shumin and her son just got married, she proudly boasted to everyone that her son married the He family's daughter.

Su's mother didn't understand Lin Wan'er, but Lin Wan'er saw through her very clearly. She sneered in her heart but didn't show it on her face.

The old woman's words sound nice, but when her cousin wanted to marry He Shumin, she didn't try to stop him at all. Lin Wan'er is not stupid, so how could she not know what she is thinking?

Forget it, she likes my cousin anyway, so I'll just bear with it for now. When I really become my cousin's woman, I will definitely let this old woman know how powerful I am.

In the evening, Su Shixuan returned home.

After spending a few moments with his wife and children, he asked about Su's mother. Upon learning that the two of them had gone up the mountain to pray for him and had not returned yet, Su Shixuan decided to go and pick them up.

He Shumin naturally wouldn't stop him. She wanted to talk to her husband about Lin Wan'er, but she took into consideration that he had just been running around outside for so many days, and thought it wouldn't be too late to talk about these troubles after he had a couple of days' rest, so she endured it.

When Su Shixuan was halfway through his journey, he heard cries for help and screams coming from the front. His heart started to tremble, and he quickly asked someone to go forward to see what was going on, and he followed closely behind.

After a few steps, he saw the carriage his mother was riding in stopped in the middle of the road. Two servants were killed in front of the carriage, and his mother and Lin Wan'er had disappeared.

Su Shixuan's eyes suddenly widened, "Mother!"

The people from the Su Mansion searched for the whole night. After all, it was related to Lin Wan'er's safety, so Su Shixuan also sent someone to notify the Lin family.

When Lin's father and mother arrived, they made a fuss. They sent their daughter to the Su's house to take care of her aunt, but their own daughter was missing. Naturally, the Lin family was not happy about this.

After two hours, there was still no news of the two. Su Shixuan knew in his heart that it must be the work of the bandits on the mountain.

He wanted to go to the government office to get some people to go directly up the mountain to look for people.

However, this idea was directly rejected by Su's father and the Lin couple.

"You went up the mountain to look for someone in such a high-profile manner. Even if you really found him, would your mother and Wan'er still have any face left?"

Su Shixuan was very angry, "It's already this time, life is more important!"

"A girl's reputation is more important than her life. If you make such a fuss and everyone knows about it, you will not be able to live on even if you explain that Wan'er is back."

He Shumin tugged at her husband's sleeve and said, "I'll go home and bring some servants back to tell my parents not to make it public. We'll send people up the mountain to look for them first. We can't just wait here for my mother and the others to come back."

Su Shixuan pursed his lips and looked at his wife, his eyes full of guilt, "I'm sorry for wronging you."

Whether she felt wronged or not, He Shumin didn't want to care about those things now. After this farce was over, she planned to have a good talk with Su Shixuan.

What Gu Qinghe said these days always appeared in her mind, and Mingxuan's experience and behavior kept reminding her.

She felt that her mentality seemed to have changed. She could no longer endure such a life. She should not be the only one to give in and endure.

But now, we should hurry up and find them both.

Falling into the hands of bandits, the two men must have been terrified.

The teachings He Shumin received since childhood prevented her from doing anything like adding insult to injury when others are in trouble.

She returned to the He residence and told her parents what happened. When He's father and mother heard it, they immediately called people to go with her to look for the person.

Everyone in the Su family stayed awake that night, but Gu Qinghe slept soundly.

As soon as she opened her eyes at dawn, she saw Mingxuan, who was holding her face and waiting for her to wake up with a smile.

Gu Qinghe was shocked. "When did you come?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that the quilt next to him was pulled twice. Gu Qinghe quickly lowered his head, and when he saw the little man hugging his waist, he remembered that Luo Feng slept in his place last night.

She quickly patted the quilt twice and waited for Luo Feng to continue sleeping, then she got up carefully and winked at Mingxuan, and the two of them walked into the yard.

Mingxuan originally came here for the Su family's affairs, but she didn't expect to see Luo Feng as soon as she arrived, and immediately forgot about the Su family's affairs.

"I see that this little fellow from General Shao's family is very attached to you." She smacked her lips, "I remember how much effort Li Qiulian put in to get this little fellow to smile at her."

Gu Qinghe smiled. In fact, children’s hearts are very simple. If you are truly kind to them, they will naturally not be stingy with their kindness.

The reason why Luo Feng likes her so much should actually be related to the fact that Gu Qinghe saved him from Liangtuo.

"By the way, has General Shao ever told you about Luo Feng's life experience?"

Gu Qinghe glanced into the room and gestured to Mingxuan to keep quiet. It would be better not to mention these things here. If Luo Feng heard them, he would probably be secretly sad in his heart.

What's more, Shao Wei probably hasn't told him his life story yet.
