Chapter 319: Looking for Trouble
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When they returned to the manor, the hot water was ready. The girls went to change their clothes, drink a bowl of ginger soup, and soak their feet for a while.
Whether it was the Gong Prince’s consort or Feng Xin Ru, they were both very meticulous in raising their daughters.
Han Qiao had learned a thing or two from following them.
The boys weren’t as careful as the girls when they returned, but their catch was obviously better than the girls. They manage to catch half a bucket of crabs.
Han Qiao instructed Aunt Zhao and the others to dig out the crab roe. The small crabs were washed clean, wrapped in flour and egg, then they were placed in the pot to be fried.
Not only were the children drooling, but even the adults could not help but salivate.
Stewed mutton and fried crabs.
Han Qiao found that Han Dacheng and the others were much more confident later that day and could talk to Li Zhao and Luo Yi’an calmly.
Han Qiao smiled.
She didn’t comment on it.
They had originally planned to stay for two days, but everyone was too happy to think about leaving, so they decided to stay for one more day.
They might as well go to the fields to catch loaches and eels.
This was also what Han Dacheng and the others were good at. Li Zhao and Luo Yi’an could not bring themselves to do so.
Growing up in different environments meant coming into contact with different things.
Seeing Han Dacheng and the others catch loaches and eels made the two n.o.ble boys very impressed.
Han Qiao personally cooked what they caught.
She made braised eel, loach with tofu… It was a delicious sight, the aroma, and taste only added to the satisfaction.
“Oh my! If 1 can eat Ah-Qiao’s cooking every day, I’m willing to live ten years less.”
“Then I’d rather give you a few fewer meals and let you live a long life.” Han Qiao laughed.
Feng Xinru couldn’t help but laugh.
“Then 1 think I might have to eat a few more meals to live a long life.”
“Delicious food can make people happy. I’ll make more when 1 have time in the future. If you don’t mind coming to our house often.”
“Then 1 will visit often.”
The children gave her dignity and finished all the dishes that she cooked.
Luo Yi’an couldn’t help but ask, “Auntie Han, when will you cook again?”
“I will invite you over when 1 cook. Or, when you return from the Academy, come home for dinner.”
While eating, she could also teach and give pointers to Han Chi.
When they returned to the city, not only were the children reluctant to leave, but even the adults wanted to stay longer.
However, life still moved forward, and they needed to continue on their own road in life.
Who could be willful enough to stay?
After packing their things, they reluctantly boarded the carriage and returned to the city.
At the city gate, they went their separate ways.
After staying in the countryside for three days, they still have many responsibilities waiting for them at home. The children had a lot of schoolwork to catch up on.
As long as it didn’t rain, they would travel through the night.
On the 19th day of the fourth month, Emperor Zhao Qian and his group finally arrived outside Chen State.
Bai Cha was forced to stay behind and was not allowed to return to the city first.
Bai Cha knew that the Emperor’s probing had already begun.
Therefore, he stayed quietly and did not struggle.
Dong Kui was a little nervous, “Second Master, what should we do?”
“You don’t have to do anything. Just wait patiently.” Bai Cha whispered and bent his legs.
Seeing how related his master was, Dong Kui also felt a little relieved and closed his eyes to rest.
Emperor Zhao Qian indeed wanted to test Heng Yi.
Thus, he asked Heng Congshan to find someone to cause trouble at the entrance of the Heng Manor.
Heng Yi went to the military camp, and Han Qiao was at home.
“What?” Han Qiao’s attention was pulled away from preparing the things she needed to ask for her son’s name and birth characters.
“There is a man outside who is here to cause trouble. H-he said…”
“He said that Master owes him money.”
Heng Yi owed someone money?
Han Qiao wasn’t the only one who was shocked. Even the others were shocked.
Heng Yi never needed silver when he went out.
H
I’ll go take a look.”
Han Qiao stood up and walked to the door.
The person who came to ask for money looked a little travel-worn, however, the fabric of his clothes was not shabby.
He spoke in standard Mandarin.
“Where are you from? How much does Heng Yi owe you?”
Han Qiao’s question surprised the people who came.
“One thousand taels.”
Han Qiao pursed her lips.
That was even more impossible.
Heng Yi had a few fast-food restaurants in Puyi County, and Third Brother Hu was in charge of them. He didn’t have a lot of money in his pockets, but he did have some.
He often didn’t have any interest in buying things, so he couldn’t borrow a thousand taels of silver from others.
“Men, arrest this person and report him to the government office. He dares to extort money from us.”
Without giving the man a chance to react, a few gatekeepers immediately went forward to restrain him and dragged him towards the government office.
ii
Let me go! Let me go!”
The restrained man shouted.
“That man is hateful! Hateful!
ii
Han Qiao looked at the person’s back and frowned slightly. She turned around and returned to the main courtyard.
She had not even sat down properly when another person arrived.
“What?”
Han Qiao called out in frustration.
“A mother and daughter have arrived. They said…”
“They said that they are Master’s people…” Duan Yue didn’t dare to continue.
Han Qiao rubbed her temples, “Tie them up and throw them to the government office.”
Heng Yi was infatuated with her and always stuck by her side. How could he have someone outside?
She didn’t want to waste her breath, so told her people to tie the two imposters up and throw them into the government office. She would wait for Heng Yi to come back.
Just as she picked up her pen and was about to write, someone else came.
“What is it this time?” Han Qiao asked.
However, she was much calmer.
“This time, the person who came said that he was relying on his relatives in Chenzhou and had used up all his money.”
“How much does he want to borrow?” Han Qiao did not look up.
She had a rough idea of what was going on.
H
He said he wanted to borrow ten thousand taels.”
Han Qiao chuckled.
Whose idea was this?
“Go and tell the person at the door who borrowed money that our family doesn’t have that much money and ask him to go elsewhere.”
“Should we chase them away?”
“There’s no need to chase him away. Let him go.” Han Qiao whispered.
She thought about what she needed to prepare and wrote it down on the paper.
Outside the gate, Emperor Zhao Qian was rejected.
He was surprised but also not surprised.
H
Is your Madam not willing to lend me money?” Emperor Zhao Qian asked.
The gatekeeper nodded politely.
He didn’t chase him away fiercely.
“If you haven’t eaten for a few days, we can go to the kitchen to get some food for you. Take the food and quickly look for another way.”
ii
H
Emperor Zhao Qian blinked, “Do you think I’m a beggar?”
“I don’t dare to think so. Didn’t you say that you don’t have any money to eat? The food we gave you is clean and untouched.”
The gatekeeper’s words made sense.
Emperor Zhao Qian pondered, “Then can I order some food?”
H
H
The gatekeeper felt that this was too much.
“Well, one or two meat dishes are fine, but if you want more, we can’t accommodate you. Madam has instructed us that we can decide how much we give you,”
Emperor Zhao Qian pursed his lips.
In honesty, the gatekeeper was already so frightened by his aura that his legs were trembling, but he had been holding it in.
To be able to be the gatekeeper here, Han Qiao even allowed him a certain amount of power, so he was more or less capable.
“Then get me a portion, a little more. 1 haven’t eaten my fill for a few days.”
The gatekeeper immediately motioned for another person to quickly go to the kitchen to get food.
He chatted with Emperor Zhao Qian.
Emperor Zhao Qian looked at the nervous gatekeeper in front of him, but he could still pretend to be calm and chat with him.
He had overestimated her.
Soon, another gatekeeper ran over with a lunchbox.
He handed it to Emperor Zhao Qian respectfully.
“Take it.”
Emperor Zhao Qian looked at the food box that was handed over.
He took it and turned to leave.
The gatekeeper heaved a sigh of relief as he watched the strange man leave. “That guy scared me to death.”
They were both humans, but standing in front of this person made him feel guilty and fl.u.s.tered. He couldn’t stop his hands and feet from trembling.
The gatekeeper shuddered when he thought of this..
