Chapter 708: Chapter 708: How Is This Unsafe?
Gu Wanqing knew that the men of the Han Family would certainly be fine; after all, they all came from military backgrounds. Even the younger generation is thrown into military training every year.
She mentioned this to remind the women in the family.
Su Aihong whispered in Gu Wanqing’s ear, "You probably didn’t know, did you? Over the years, Jingchen has already taken action and dealt with those families that once tried to harm the Gu Family, leaving them with no chance of recovering."
After speaking, she sat up straight and said, "However, your reminder is also right; we should indeed be more careful."
She looked at her two daughters-in-law and her niece and cousin, "Especially you all, make sure to be careful when going out from now on."
Wu Shengfang and Chu Zhenhua might not fully understand the specifics, but they nodded obediently, knowing that their mother-in-law wouldn’t harm them, much less scare them.
Sun Zhenling also didn’t understand, and turned to look at her mother.
Han Chunxue patted her daughter’s hair, "Your aunt is reminding you to be more mindful when you’re out and about. Maybe refresh the self-defense moves your dad taught you, so that even if you encounter something, you can protect yourself."
Truth be told, Sun Zhenling was a bit puzzled. How could her second aunt’s return be a good thing, yet end up being unsafe?
Han Chunxue smiled and said, "Just keep in mind what the elders have said."
She looked at her two nieces-in-law and knew they were likely confused today as well, so she briefly explained the situation to them.
They finally understood that even now, there might be hidden enemies of the Gu Family lurking in the shadows.
After hearing, they expressed that they would try not to go out alone in the future.
Han Chunxue smiled at them, "But don’t be too tense; it’s all just speculation."
Afterward, everyone shifted to talking about other topics.
Gu Wanqing looked at everyone, "Today was rushed, so I couldn’t bring the gifts I prepared. I’ll make up for it next time."
Su Aihong laughed, "We are all family; you don’t need to go to such expense."
Gu Wanqing shook her head with a smile, "That won’t do, those gifts were carefully prepared by me."
It’s true, and she had specifically prepared extra sets, knowing that it’s about time for the younger generation to start families, and it wouldn’t do to leave out gifts for their partners.
In another room, Han Jingheng frowned as he looked at his brother, "Jingchen, aren’t you afraid your sister-in-law will take Yanyan and never return?"
Han Jingchen raised his head to look at his big brother, knowing the concern was out of goodwill. "Big Brother, I trust Wanqing."
Han Jingheng wore a worried expression, "But you two have been apart for so many years now?"
In fact, this older brother wasn’t really familiar with Gu Wanqing, and after the second brother got married, he didn’t stay in the old house much before moving to the Gu Family’s courtyard in the suburbs.
After the holidays ended, he returned to the military, and the second sister-in-law moved back to the city, but not back to the Han Family. Instead, she stayed at another Gu Family-owned courtyard near the Han Family.
Listening to what the second sister-in-law just said, he couldn’t help but worry for his brother.
Han Jingchen saw his big brother’s furrowed brow and said, "Big Brother, please rest assured; Wanqing is really wonderful."
Seeing his brother so determined, Han Jingheng didn’t insist any further, "As long as you know what you’re doing."
Han Jingchen, unusually, smiled in front of his big brother, "Even if things were as you imagine, you know Yanyan’s character; she wouldn’t be easily controlled."
Han Jingheng, hearing this, thought he might be overthinking things.
Han Jingchen patted his big brother’s shoulder, "Don’t worry; the people in the Gu Family are trustworthy."
The two brothers didn’t stay in the study for long before coming out.
