Chapter 338: A Few Thoughts
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When she found out that Grandpa and Grandma weren’t there, Han Qiao’s joy faded in an instant.
She first went to the courtyard where the Han family were staying. After learning that they had all washed up and had rested, she pursed her lips and went to the courtyard where the Heng family were staying.
The Heng Family were also resting.
After receiving the invitation, they had packed up their things and rushed to the city. It was a very tiring journey.
The courtyard was quiet. Han Qiao smiled and went back to the main courtyard to wash up.
Sun Xiu came over to tell her who had come.
“You did a good job today. Your management was also very meticulous and appropriate.”
Sun Xiu smiled shyly when heard the praise.
By the time Han Dacheng and the others learned that their family had arrived, the sky was about to turn dark.
The children were sweating profusely, and their bodies reeked of sweat.
“Hurry and wash up.”
Han Qiao didn’t send anyone to disturb the Heng and Han families. She told them to have a good night’s rest and they’ll meet each other tomorrow.
She also left food and hot water in the kitchen so that she could fill their stomach when they woke up.
However, they were too tired.
After eating and was.h.i.+ng up before going to bed, she slept until dawn.
The Han family had made some money after all. Although they were surprised by the wealth of Heng Manor, they at least held back their surprise.
But things were different for the Heng Family.
They were too poor. They had no money and no rice in their vats.
Heng Silang wasn’t here, and the three brothers of the Heng family had already been beaten up by a few families over small matters. In the beginning, Heng Yi had taken care of Old Man Heng and Old Woman, and their faces were rosy.
They had also made a fuss when they went to the restaurant in town to ask for something. Of course, Third Brother Hu wouldn’t give anything to them. Heng Yi immediately stopped giving them food. It had only been a month, and she couldn’t hold on anymore. After all, it was easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
Only after they repeatedly promised Third Brother Hu did they continue to receive the monthly food and money for filial piety from Heng Yi.
None of them dared to make any more noise.
When they came to Heng Manor this time, all the servants in the manor were dressed more decently than them.
They walked fast but steadily, and their smiles were gentle but arrogant.
It was just that they felt inferior.
They had breakfast in the dining room. They were noisy at first, but when they saw Han Qiao and Heng Yi, they were shocked.
Heng Yi was wearing a silk robe, with a transparent jade pendant hanging from his waist. His face was a little dark, but he was also quite handsome. He had killed many mountain bandits, so exuded a powerful aura.
The Heng family members couldn’t help but swallow their saliva when they watched them enter.
They could not help but look at Han Qiao beside him.
Compared to Heng Yi’s uniform, Han Qiao’s clothes were much more colorful, and with the accessories, she looked like a jewel.
She still looked gentle, but she was more elegant. When she looked at you, you couldn’t help but feel inferior.
“Don’t you recognize me?” Han Qiao smiled.
She first greeted them politely.
It was as if there was no grudge between them, yet she still maintained some distance. They were just like ordinary relatives, indifferent and easy-going, but lacking in intimacy.
Han Yuan wanted to say something several times, but she looked at Han Qiao and didn’t know what to say.
When Han Qiao pulled her to sit down, her body was still stiff.
Han Qiao smiled and went to pull Old Woman Heng beside her, “Mother, sit here.”
Old Woman Heng was flattered.
After sitting down nervously, Old Man Heng sat down beside her.
The few uncles sat down one by one.
Han Qiao sat at the main table.
The brothers sat at one table while the children sat at another table.
It could be considered a clear distinction.
“I didn’t make anything good in the morning, so I just ate casually. We’re all family, so there’s no need to restrain yourselves.”
There were buns, buns, and cakes on the table. There were also various side dishes and two types of porridge. Was this what she considered “nothing good”?
Han Yuan glanced at her husband.
She didn’t know if they should come. Father Han did not smile from the moment he left the house.
She knew that he was upset, but who wouldn’t be upset?
But what could they do?
Haven’t they understood enough in the past few months? Han Qiao had let them go.
She told them she didn’t care, and followed through her words.
She would give them things during the holidays, but it was only for appearance’s sake. They weren’t anything valuable. She had asked around and found out that the items she gave were the same things that the two Heng elders had received.
She also gave the same things to Heng Yi’s brothers.
She even suspected that Han Qiao had not personally prepared it, but had ordered her servants to prepare them according to their whims.
Han Yuan had guessed correctly.
Han Qiao was unwilling to personally prepare these things for them.
However, her gestures were so polite that no one could nitpick.
After they moved to Chenzhou City, the Han family continuously sent gifts and letters to Han Dacheng and the others, but not a single one of them had been sent to Han Qiao.
Not even a greeting.
The distinctions were clear…
People’s hearts were made of flesh. They did not care about her, yet Han Qiao could still give some back. It was considered filial.
After the greeting, Han Qiao ate quietly.
Heng Yi picked up a piece of smoked fish for her.
The porridge with smoked fish was very delicious, and Han Qiao liked it too.
However, she usually ate very little and only steamed it once in a while.
Han Qiao smiled at Heng Yi.
Everyone could see their relations.h.i.+p at a glance. There was no need for words.
The Heng family ate happily.
In the countryside, they could not eat such a good breakfast all year round. They had never eaten such a good breakfast during the New Year.
The uncles were calm.
Han Qiao wasn’t their biological daughter, anyway, so they couldn’t think about anything else.
Father Han and Han Yuan were the only ones unable to eat.
Han Qiao didn’t look at them. She probably still remembered that they didn’t send her off when they left Puyi County.
Everyone had different thoughts during breakfast.
Only then did she put down his chopsticks. Ah-Yao was carried over with tears in his eyes.
He wanted his parents to carry him whenever he saw them.
“What’s wrong?” Han Qiao stood up and took him into her arms.
“Waaah!”
Ah-Yao dinged onto Han Qiao and cried.
Han Qiao coaxed him, “What’s wrong? Are you hungry?”
Ah-Yao shook his head.
“Did you wet the bed?” Han Qiao asked again.
Ah-Yao shook his head again.
He continued to clutche onto Han Qiao’s clothes and whimpered once more.
Heng Yi put down his chopsticks and watched.
“Are you scared?” Han Qiao asked again.
Ah-Yao tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded slightly.
He understood what his mother meant.
Han Qiao realized that her baby had a nightmare.
Heng Yi took All-Yao from her arms, “I’ll take care of him. You eat first.”
He carried Ah-Yao to the side to calm him down.
He didn’t know how to do it, so he walked back and forth while holding Ah-Yao, gently patting his back.
Han Qiao told everyone to continue eating breakfast.
Old Woman Heng praised, “Your son is very handsome and smart.”
Such a small child yet he could understand what the adults were saying.
“He’s too smart.” Han Qiao smiled and picked up some food for Old Woman Heng, “Try this. It tastes good.”
“Alright, alright, alright,” Old Woman Heng was very flattered.
Mother Han stole a glance and lowered her eyes.
She also went to pick up the side dish that Han Qiao had given to Old Woman Heng.
It tasted good.
She looked at Han Qiao again, but Han Qiao pretended not to see her.
After finis.h.i.+ng the food in the bowl, he stood up and took Ah Yao, letting Heng Yi sit down to eat.
Ah Yao’s breakfast was also ready.
Egg custard and thick porridge.
She sat at the side to feed Ah-Yao. Ah-Yao ate happily and had long forgotten about his nightmare.
He was just a little boy. He only had a few seconds of memory.
After having breakfast happily, the family sat in the small hall and chatted.
Han Qiao then looked at her uncle, “Uncle, how is Grandpa and Grandma’s health? Why didn’t he come along this time?”
This was also what she was most concerned about..
