“When the Duke of Guarding was involved in the Crown Prince’s case, the Emperor was furious and exiled the entire Duke of Guarding’s family. The servant was sold and the Emperor ordered that the servant would never be allowed to redeem themselves and enter the government.”
Heng Yi had never read a book, so he didn’t understand the meaning behind it.
He looked at Bai Cha for guidance.
Bai Cha stepped forward and said, “Thank you, Butler Feng, for running around for me. It’s been hard on you.”
Butler Feng shook his head. “It’s not considered hard work.”
This was originally to give Heng Yi face.
He then said to Heng Yi, “I’ve already informed the government office. You can report to them anytime. You can start as a constable. As long as you work well, you can be one in no time.”
“Alright.” Heng Yi agreed.
He also knew that he couldn’t be a constable on his own.
He wouldn’t be able to convince the public even if he went to be a shop owner now.
He wanted to work as a constable, mainly because he was not good with words.
Butler Feng did not stay for long before he decided to leave.
Heng Yi walked him to the door and asked, “Butler Feng, do you need me to hunt any animals in the mansion? Do you want a deer?”
Butler Feng looked at Heng Yi and smiled.
“If we can get a few live deer, that’ll be fine!” Butler Feng gave Heng Yi a knowing look.
Heng Yi nodded. “Alright.”
He sent Butler Feng away.
Heng Yi patted Bai Cha’s shoulder. “Come with me into the mountains tomorrow. We’ll earn some money, and you can take the silver with you.”
“Bai Cha, this is all I can do.”
“Lord Heng.” Bai Cha sobbed.
He was indeed thinking about the master, and even more so about the young masters.
Since he could make this trip and send some silver over, he knew what the situation was like over there and could feel at ease.
Heng Yi wanted to go into the mountain, and Han Qiao couldn’t stop him.
“It’s cold now. Bring more food and cotton clothes into the mountains. Carry an iron pot too. You can boil some hot water and cook some porridge.”
“If you catch a pheasant, you can even make chicken soup.” Sun Ke echoed.
He Cheng was carried by a servant girl and also echoed, “Eat, eat.”
He had learned how to call his parents now. When he saw Sun Ke and the others call Heng Yi and Han Qiao Mother and Father, he followed suit.
This boy was beautiful, fair, and soft.
Han Qiao pinched his cheek.
“You greedy little cat.”
“Mother, Mother, eat, eat.”
Han Qiao was overjoyed.
Everyone was amused.
The next day, Heng Yi and Bai Cha set off.
Heng Yi passed by the manor but didn’t call any cousins.
This time, Heng Yi wanted to earn money and give some to Bai Cha so that he could take him to the wasteland.
Seeing him so absent-minded, Heng Yi felt bad.
When Heng Yi and Bai Cha went into the mountains, Han Qiao didn’t stay idle either.
She began to collect the eels and loaches.
At this time, some families began to plow the fields and put water in them to raise some crops. This could also allow the rice stalks to rot and become nutrients.
Therefore, when she hung the sign for loaches at the entrance of the restaurant that had yet to open, people came to see it.
It was clearly written that the eel was slightly cheaper. Eels were divided into different sizes. The big ones were expensive, while the small ones were very cheap.
“Is there anyone who can read? What does this say?”
“This restaurant is collecting eels and loaches.”
“What’s the price?”
“It depends on the size.”
Han Qiao didn’t expect to receive any loach so soon.
Her body had been a little stiff these past two days. She felt uncomfortable sitting and standing.
She does not feel comfortable, nor was it peaceful.
She wanted to go to the kitchen to get something to eat, but she was too lazy to go-
And she was still a little sleepy.
She didn’t want to wake up in the morning mainly because it was cold.
Now that He Cheng had a servant girl and an old woman to take care of him, she didn’t need to personally take care of him.
Her three daughters followed Lady Lin to read, write, and sew. Grandfather and Grandmother went to the opera for two hours in the morning, came back for lunch, and went for another two hours in the afternoon. She didn’t have to worry.
Heng Yi wasn’t at home, so she thought she would still be worried about him. However, besides wanting to sleep, she was only hungry.
She asked Auntie Zhao to fry some crispy meat to eat.
When Aunt Zhao brought the crispy meat over, she didn’t want to eat it anymore.
“Aunt Zhao, can you help me see if there are any oranges at home?”
Han Qiao had never been like this before.
Aunt Zhao frowned slightly. “Madam, are you pregnant?”

Han Qiao was stunned.
She blinked and said, “Quickly get someone to call a doctor.”
Han Qiao also sat up straight.
She didn’t mind, and Heng Yi never said anything, but she knew he wanted a child. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have worked so hard every night.
The doctor came very quickly. After checking Han Qiao’s pulse, he couldn’t find anything.
“What is it, doctor?” Han Qiao asked.
“Judging from Madam’s pulse, I can’t feel it at the moment. However, your body is healthy, but you will get bouts of sleepiness.”
Han Qiao pursed her lips.
‘What’s with this nonsense?’
As the mother, she would feel something when there was life blooming in her stomach.
“Thank you, doctor. I’ll invite you over in a few days. Uncle Hu will send you off.”
“Yes, sir!”
Uncle Hu respectfully sent the doctor out.
When Sun Xiu, Sun Yi, and Sun Ke learned that Han Qiao had called a doctor, they hurried over to ask.
“I’m fine!”
Han Qiao smiled. “You three might have a younger sibling soon.”
The three children were stunned at first, but then they were overjoyed.
“Mother, really?”
“I can’t be sure at the moment. I’ll ask the doctor to come and take a look at it at the end of the year.”
Although Han Qiao said that, she was more or less sure that she was pregnant.
Perhaps it was because of this thought, Han Qiao was not anxious at all.
If she wanted to eat something, she would let Aunt Zhao cook it. If she wanted something urgently, she would buy it from outside.
After waiting for two or three days, Heng Yi still hadn’t returned. Han Qiao was a little worried, but she managed to hold it in.
On the eighth day of the lunar month, Han Xiaohong and her husband came to Heng Manor, and Han Qiao warmly greeted them.
“Sister Ah-Qiao.”
“Cousin.”
“Sit down, sit down, and wait for a moment.”
The winter this year was not very cold, so the couple did not wear very thick clothes. However, Han Qiao’s sharp eyes still saw Han Xiaohong’s bulging stomach.
“Are you pregnant?”
“Yes, I should have come earlier, but I wasn’t feeling well a few days ago.”
Han Qiao asked her to sit down quickly.
“How many months has it been?”
“Three months.”
“That’s great.” As Han Qiao spoke, she reached out and touched her belly.
If she was also pregnant, her cousin should still be two months older than hers.
It was pretty good.
After the two sisters finished chatting, Brother-In-Law Zheng said, “Sister, I came here this time to discuss the matter of collecting firewood. We collect 50 catties of firewood in the countryside. Dry firewood costs ten coins, and wet firewood costs five coins.”
“The requirement is that they have to be slightly thicker and cut neatly.”
“I don’t want thin twigs.”
Han Qiao nodded.
“The price here is almost double.”
Brother-In-Law Zheng was overjoyed.
He had an ox cart at home, so it could probably pull six to seven hundred catties. If the two brothers came over, they could carry a little more.
He could earn a hundred coins every time he came, and he could come once a day.
Three taels of silver a month.
Brother-In-Law Zheng’s eyes were filled with joy.
The two sisters had something to talk about. Brother-In-Law Zheng also wanted to visit his younger brother who was studying in the academy and deliver food and silver that his parents had given him.
“Sister, I brought you ten chickens this time. They’re all raised at home.”
Han Qiao was very surprised. “Why did you bring so many things? You’re going to give birth next year.”
“It’s not too late to raise them next year.”
Moreover, it was already good to be able to eat five chickens in a month in the countryside.
“Go back and tell your mother-in-law that you can raise more chickens and ducks next year. When the time comes, I’ll buy chicken eggs and duck eggs. The price will be similar to the market price. I won’t give you a discount.”
“Alright.”
However, Han Qiao did not expect that while she was still chatting with Han Xiaohong, the gatekeeper would come over and report that her sister had arrived..
