Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Grandfather and Grandmother are both in good health. They are old and it took more than ten days to rush here. Their bodies wouldn’t be able to withstand the journey, so they couldn’t co.” Uncle said.
Uncle Yao smiled and added, “When the weather is cooler, 1’11 send them to you and let them live in your house for three to five years.”
“That’s good. You have to honor this promise, Uncle Yao.” Han Qiao replied with a smile.
The atmosphere imdiately beca better.
Han Qiao also asked everyone how they were doing. How was their business doing?
How were the children at ho doing?
She then asked Father Han and Mother Han, “How are Father and Mother?” How’s the business going along?”
The two of them looked as if they had aged much older.
They weren’t doing well.
Han Qiao pretended not to see it and casually asked.
“Business is doing pretty good.” Father Han said calmly.
Han Dalang wanted to interject, but in the end, he pursed his lips and didn’t say anything.
“As long as it’s good.” Han Qiao smiled.
Han Chi was about to get married. He had been training how to welco the bride these past few days and cramd up on his knowledge, so he did not return ho yesterday.
Han Qiao was also very busy. She had to ask about all kinds of things, and she couldn’t forget about posting the news of the wedding outside.
When Madam Feng and Feng Xinru ca over, Han Qiao handed Ah-Yao over to Pucao and said a few words of farewell to her family, telling them to make themselves at ho. If they wanted to go out for a walk, they could do so. She had to go and get busy.
She and Heng Yi didn’t know how many tables they should prepare at first, but many people ca with gifts to tell them that they would co to the wedding.
Therefore, more tables had to be added.
The wedding posters had to be written.
Emperor Zhao Qian had to invite all those to whom he had sent invitations when he sold his calligraphy.
This was how relationships and connections were cultivated.
After Han Qiao left, the Heng and Han family mbers returned to their own courtyards.
And so decided to walk around the house.
Old Woman Heng invited Han Yuan to walk with her.
Mother Han thought about it and didn’t refuse.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, this house is really big,” Old Woman Heng sighed.
She reached out to touch the pillar and the wall.
“If I could live in this house for a few years, I would wake up smiling in my dreams,” Old Woman Heng said.
She then turned to Han Yuan, “In-law, you are Ah-Qiao’s mother. She will let you stay for a while, right?”
Han Yuan’s heart skipped a beat.
“Of course, she will. It’s just that my business is so busy these days. If I don’t work for a day, I won’t earn a day’s money.”
Old Woman Heng was envious of Han Yuan.
She knew that Han Yuan’s wonton stall was doing very well.
“Don’t you have another daughter? Why didn’t she co this ti?”
At the ntion of Han Xiang…
Han Yuan’s face darkened.
“She’s pregnant, so it’s not easy for her to travel.”
“I see. I thought the two sisters had cut off all ties.”
“In-law, what do you an?” Han Yuan asked coldly.
Han Qiao and Han Xiang had indeed broken off their relationship.
Han Xiang was indeed pregnant after she remarried, but her husband’s family was large, and each one was more scheming than the last.
Their new son-in-law looked like a decent man at first, but gradually, he showed his hatred towards Han Xiang’s two children.
Now that the two children were being raised by the two elders, the stall did not earn enough money to cover their daily needs.
They were almost unable to make ends et.
They ca to Chenzhou because they wanted Han Qiao to help them out…
“I don’t an anything. It’s sothing that everyone knows. I’m just asking casually,” After Old Woman Heng finished speaking, she snorted coldly and left.
She could tell that Han Qiao was not close to her parents at all.
Which was very unusual.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t dare to make fun of Han Yuan like that even if she was threatened with being beaten to death if she didn’t.
Han Yuan watched Old Woman Heng’s departing figure, her eyes red with anger.
After thinking about it, she decided to look for Han Qiao.
Han Yuan hadn’t arrived at the main courtyard yet, but Han Qiao already knew about the confrontation between the two older won.
She chuckled.
When Han Yuan arrived, she said to Madam Feng and Feng Xinru, “Please take a seat. I’ll be back soon.”
“Go ahead. Sister-in-law and 1 will help you keep an eye on this.” Feng Xinru smiled and pushed Han Qiao.
Her relationship with Han Qiao was different now.
Other than friends, they were slowly becoming sisters.
Han Qiao t Han Yuan in the side hall.
The mother and daughter t again after a few months, and for a mont, they didn’t know what to say to each other.
Han Yuan had many things she wanted to say, but she didn’t know how to say them.
Han Qiao observed her silently.
After a while, Han Yuan cried out, “Ah-Qiao, how did we end up like this?”
This question…
Han Qiao wanted to ask her back.
‘Don’t you know the answer to that?’
Yet her mother still ca to her and said the sa thing. She didn’t care if they were biased or not. She just felt that people had to distinguish between right and wrong. A person couldn’t be so biased that it blinded them from morality.
She sighed softly.
She regretted sending the invitation to them to Ah-Chi’s wedding.
She was looking for trouble over nothing.
“Mother, let’s not talk about this.”
“As for the reason, you know everything. Why ask ?”
Han Qiao stared at Han Yuan, who was wiping her tears. She noticed, her wrist was bare, “Mother, where’s the gold bracelet I gave you?”
Han Yuan’s hand that was wiping her tears stopped.
She quickly pulled up her sleeves guiltily.
Han Qiao chuckled, “You sold it, didn’t you?”
Han Yuan felt even more guilty.
“You sold it for Han Xiang’s two children, right?”
“Mother, look, you even sold the gold bracelet 1 gave you. What do you want to say? Heng Yi’s adoptive mother still kept the golden bracelet I gave her.”
Han Yuan felt ashad.
“What can I do? I…” Han Yuan cried anguishly.
“Didn’t you choose this yourself? Why are you crying now?”
Why was she crying now?
Did she think that crying would make her heart soften?
Well, she would have to be disappointed then.
“Mother, Ah-Chi is about to get married. Don’t cry at ho. It’s bad luck,” Han Qiao’s voice beca even fainter.
Han Yuan choked on her sobs.
Her words were stuck in her throat.
She didn’t expect Han Qiao to say sothing like that.
“Marriage should be a joyous occasion. If Mother has any grievances or bitterness, we can talk about it after Ah-Chi gets married. I don’t want to listen to it now, and I don’t have the ti to listen. You just stay here with Father and the others. If you’re in a good mood, go out and wander around. It’s not often for you to have the opportunity to co here.”
“The things in the state capital are better than the things in the county. There are more of them. There will be sothing you will take a fancy to.”
Han Yuan listened, but her heart ached.
She wanted to go out, but she was short of money.
Her three sons gave her so silver, but this money was used to buy a greeting gift for Ah-Chi’s new wife.
She didn’t have any money left to go shopping.
Han Yuan pursed her lips and wiped her tears.
Han Qiao was very annoyed.
At this ti, crying would bring bad on to the newlyweds.
She took a deep breath and stood up, “Mother, I’m going to get busy. You can calm down here. I’ll ask soone to send you back in a while.”
“Ah-Qiao, do you bla ?” Han Yuan asked carefully.
Han Qiao took a deep breath.
“I can’t say if I blad you or not. At this juncture, I really don’t want to see anyone crying. Mother, wipe your tears. The girl that Ah-Chi is marrying is the princess of the Imperial Family, not a girl from an ordinary family.”
“As a mber of my family and his grandmother, you should give him your blessing happily and leave a good impression on your new daughter-in-law if you still want to co and visit in the future,”
These words made all the status in the family clear.
Whether she understood or not, that was Han Yuan’s problem now..
