It's hard to be a stepmother, my disabled husband takes care of my child

Chapter 139 I'm not here to see you, I'm here to see the two children

During this short period of more than half a month, the four people's moods experienced all kinds of ups and downs.

But, they all made it through.

They also found out that Fu Xiu and the two children were fine, which finally made them feel relieved.

Why is it just a little? Because nothing happened means that the two children and Fu Xiu are still alive, but some troubles still exist, and they may even lose their lives at any time.

Fortunately, they arrived before anything really happened.

Because of Su Man's space and the presence of Old Man Fan, the four of them were in good health except that they looked a little tired.

Looking at the gate in front of her with the word "Imperial City" written on it, Su Man let out a long breath.

finally reached.

Old Man Fan also rubbed his sore shoulders and sighed,

"We are finally here. If we hadn't reached the destination yet, my old bones would have fallen apart. My bones ache from sitting in this carriage."

Knowing that the two children and Fu Xiu were fine, Su Man wasn't as depressed as she was at the beginning. Now, listening to what Old Man Fan said, she was in a good mood to laugh and joke.

"Just bear with me. When we get there tonight, I'll make you a nice meal and some soup. I guarantee you'll feel refreshed."

When Old Man Fan heard this, a smile immediately broke out on his face.

"Okay, okay, you said it, you must not go back on your word, I'm waiting!"

"Don't worry, I will never go back on my word, but the prerequisite is that we can arrive at the place in the evening."

Su Man and Old Man Fan both looked at Fu Si and Fu Qi. After all, these two were the ones who decided where they would be at night.

Fu Si and Fu Qi looked at each other, with confusion in their eyes.

"Um... Madam, I... have something to tell you." Fu Si said hesitantly.

"Tell me, what's the matter." Su Man looked at him.

Fu Si scratched his head and said with a guilty conscience,

"If the master punishes us later, can you help us plead for mercy and not let the master punish us so severely?"

Su Man was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily.

"Okay, no problem, don't worry, even if I say I'm coming, I won't let him do anything to you."

Fu Si and Fu Qi breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that since the lady had said these words, she would definitely help them.

"Can we go now? Will we need any identification when we go in? There are so many soldiers standing at the door."

Su Man said again in a low voice.

Fu Si shook his head and whispered,

"That's not necessary. We will go in openly later. No one will stop us. But when we return to the mansion, we may have to wait until night to find a chance to go back. At this time, there must be many secret guards outside the mansion."

Su Man understood, so she didn't say much, but just said that she could go see the two children at night.

But the soup that I promised to Old Man Fan will have to be delayed until tomorrow.

Fortunately, Old Man Fan was not someone who did not understand the situation. He immediately said that there was no rush and that they could just wait until things stabilized before drinking the soup, on the condition that Su Man must remember it.

So the four of them took a carriage and went straight into the city among the crowd.

Seeing the prosperous scene in the city, Su Man couldn't help but sigh that it was worthy of being the city under the feet of the emperor.

The bustling streets, bustling crowds and various hawking sounds were something they had never seen in the many cities they had passed through.

"There are still two hours before dark. Let's find an inn, take a good bath, eat something, and then rest." Su Man said.

"By the way, don't go to a big inn, just find a clean small inn. That way it won't attract attention."

At this time, there should be all kinds of undercurrents in the city. Although there are many outsiders every day, once some different outsiders appear, it is still easy for some books to notice them.

So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, try to keep a low profile.

Fu Si nodded, "Understood, ma'am."

Compared with Su Man and Old Man Fan, Fu Si and Fu Qi were much more familiar with the imperial city, so they quickly found a place with the words "Yuelai Inn" written on it.

This place does look very ordinary from the outside, a very plain little inn, but once you go in, the environment is quite clean.

They asked for four medium-sized rooms put together, and asked the waiter to bring them hot water and food into the room.

After washing up, they took the time to rest.

They had been observing secretly all the way here, so they knew there was no one following them.

They didn’t know what the scene would be like at night, so they could only take the time to rest.

Su Man and Old Man Fan's room is in the middle, with Fu Si and Fu Qi on the left and right.

When I woke up, it was already dark.

The four of them opened the door and came out to meet each other. At this time, they were all wearing very ordinary and dark clothes.

The four of them no longer led the carriage because it was too much of an eyesore and not very convenient to move around in.

To be on the safe side, the four of them pretended to be people strolling around at night, walking slowly, and occasionally buying one or two things. This way, even if others noticed them, they would just think they were shopping.

The imperial city is the imperial city. Even at night it is still brightly lit and bustling.

Su Man and Old Man Fan didn't know the way, so Fu Si led the way in front and Fu Qi protected them on the side.

Su Man said many times that she could protect herself, but neither of them believed her and thought she only had some mediocre skills.

She couldn't say anything, so she could only agree.

But since everyone has chosen to come here, she thought that everyone would soon know that she has the ability to protect herself.

I'm afraid these hands will be stained with blood again.

She thought that in order to protect the family she cared about, it would be okay to get stained with blood.

Ning An took many detours and did not immediately reach the gate of the general's mansion. Instead, he walked through several places before reaching a back door.

Of course, even when they reached the back door, Fu Si and the others did not stop, but just walked slowly.

Walking and talking in a low voice.

"There are other people here, not just ours. Let's take a few more steps and wait for our people to lead the others away before going in."

The people in the dark know Fu Si and Fu Qi, so when they see them coming, they will definitely lead some people away. They just need to bide their time.

After hearing this, Su Man could conclude that this was the general's mansion.

She nodded slightly and said nothing more.

At this time, it is always right to listen to Fu Si.

They walked for a while longer, and suddenly a bird's cry was heard in the sky.

Fu Si paused and glanced at Su Man.

Su Man understood what he meant, and the few of them went towards the back door again.

Fu Si knocked on the door first, and when no one opened it, he planned to push the door open himself.

But the next second, the door was opened from the inside, and they were quickly pulled in by the people inside.

Su Man was already prepared to defend against the attack, but she restrained herself when she saw that Fu Si and Fu Qi did not make any move.

"What do you two want to do? Who asked you to come back? Didn't I tell you to protect the lady?"

A familiar voice sounded, and the person in front of them pulled down the black scarf covering his face. It was Fu San.

Fu Si and Fu Qi lowered their heads and said nothing.

They had already thought of this consequence before they decided to come back.

Su Man took a step forward.

"Fu San, don't blame them, it was my idea."

"Madam, you..." Fu San looked at Su Man, "Do you know how dangerous it will be to come back this time? The master had such a hard time getting you out, how...how can you come back?"

Su Man smiled and said,

"He is doing this for my own good, but has he ever thought about whether I want to accept this arrangement? These two children call me mother, how can I watch them fall into danger?"

"But……"

"Don't worry, take us in. Where is your master? And the two children? I will tell your master about this matter in person."

Fu San glanced at Fu Si and Fu Qi who were keeping their heads down and saying nothing, and finally sighed silently and led a few people in.

Although they were a little worried about the lady and did not agree with them coming back, they had to admit that they were somewhat happy.

Because Su Man was willing to come back even though she knew there was danger, they admired her courage and determination.

It was late at night, so some of the servants in the house had gone to bed, except for a few in the dark.

Following Fu San inside, Su Man felt a little nervous. She didn't know how the two children and the bastard would react when they saw her. They should be happy, right?

She curled the corners of her mouth slightly. After many months, their family was finally going to meet again.

After walking for a long time, Fu San stopped in front of a door. There were two guards guarding the door. When they saw Fu San, they immediately called out, but their eyes fell on Su Man and Old Man Fan with confusion.

These two guards were from the secret guard camp, so Fu Si and Fu Qi knew each other and knew that they had been sent by their master to carry out a secret mission.

They just didn't know what the specific mission was. Now when they saw Su Man, a woman, and old man Fan, they felt a little confused.

However, they couldn't help but look at Su Man a few more times. This woman was pretty and had a frank look in her eyes. Even in such a situation, she was not afraid at all and there was not a trace of timidity in her. Her contented look made them unable to help but look up to her.

Fu San looked at the two guards and immediately scolded them.

"Don't look around, this is not someone you can look at randomly."

The two guards immediately lowered their heads.

Su Man: “…”

Fu San looked at Su Man and was about to speak, but was stopped by Su Man who blinked her eyes.

"Can we go in directly?" she asked in a whisper.

She didn't want the people inside to know her. She wanted to go in directly and see how the people inside reacted when they saw her.

She knew who was inside.

Fu San thought about it for a moment and nodded.

Now the two guards became even more curious about Su Man's identity. Who is this woman who can make Master Fu treat her so respectfully and can directly enter the master's study?

Su Man took a deep breath, suppressed her nervousness, and pushed the door open.

She walked in pretending nothing had happened, and Old Man Fan, Fu Si, Fu Qi and Fu Qi followed her.

When she entered, Su Man found it was a study.

In the study, Fu Yi and Luo Yun were sitting next to the desk. The man was sitting at the desk with his head down, reading a letter in his hand.

I don't know what letter he was reading, he was so serious that he didn't even notice someone coming in.

Fu Yi and Luo Yun were both stunned when they saw them.

"Master, why are you here?" Luo Yun shouted subconsciously, and then quickly came to Old Man Fan.

Old Man Fan glared at his unpromising apprentice. He really had no sense at all. Couldn't he see that Man wanted to come over to give Fu Xiu a surprise? She actually shouted it out like that!

"Madam, you...how come you are here?" Even Fu Yi, who was as steady as a rock, was shocked.

The man who was reading the letter with his head down finally raised his head after hearing these words. There was surprise and even astonishment in his eyes that he didn't have time to hide.

Especially when he saw a smile on Su Man's face, he couldn't believe it.

He couldn't believe that the person he had been thinking about day and night was standing in front of him, even with a smile on her face.

Su Man looked at his surprise and was very satisfied.

Why does this man look so dumbfounded? Is he scared silly?

"Ahem..." She coughed deliberately and said with a relaxed look, "What? You don't recognize me when you see me? No way, you don't recognize me after only three months? How come your memory has become so bad? By the way, where are the two children?"

Fu Xiu, who was sitting, finally believed that the woman in front of him was not an illusion or a dream, but really existed when he heard these words.

"Who asked you to come here? Did I ask you to come here? Did you listen to me? Do you want to die?"

He cursed coldly, then stood up and walked out from behind the desk, his face changing from surprise to anger and coldness.

This was the first time he showed his emotions so openly, and his face was filled with a chill.

When Fu Si and Fu Qi heard this, they immediately knelt down. They knew that their master would be angry this time, but they did not regret it. They just felt guilty towards their master and mistress.

The smile on Su Man's face also disappeared. She looked at the man standing in front of her, then looked down at Fu Si and Fu Qi who were kneeling on the ground.

"What? You don't welcome me?" She looked straight into the man's eyes without any retreat, nor was she frightened by the man's coldness.

"Yes, you are not welcome." Fu Xiu's voice was still cold, but his eyes could not move away from Su Man's face at all.

"Why? I am an independent person with my own independent thoughts. I am not here to see you, but to see my two children. So you have no right to question me or scold me."

She didn't know why she was so angry. It was probably because she had come all the way here, and even when she was outside the door wondering if this man would be happy, she was scolded as soon as she entered the door.

What she was sure of was that the man liked her, but she felt bad being scolded like this.
