Bai Cha was delighted when he heard that. “Really?”

I’m not sure yet, but Madam hasn’t wanted to eat anything recently. Usually, only people who have morning sickness can’t eat. After a while, she will crave certain food.”
Aunt Zhao said happily.
“I’ll soak these tremellas and put some red dates in tomorrow’s stew. It’s sweet and delicious, and Madam will like it.”
She treated Han Qiao well and wholeheartedly.
After all, she had suffered for half her life and it was rare for her to have a place to stay.
Besides, she had seen Han Qiao’s kindness. She knew that when Han Qiao and Heng Yi became rich and powerful, she would have a place to retire.
Aunt Zhao knew very well who was the master and who was the guest in this house.
Everything naturally had to be prioritized.
Who was her main source of income?
“I’ve cooked some food here. You can bring a bowl to Master later. I’ll boil some hot water too, so you can take it back and take a bath. After you’re done, change into a clean set of clothes and go to bed early.”
“I’ve tidied up your room. The bed is clean.”
“Thank you, Aunt Zhao.” Bai Cha hurriedly said.
“Don’t be so polite with me.”
Aunt Zhao smiled. Seeing Heng Yi standing at the door, she quickly said, “Master, you came just in time. Come in quickly. The noodles are ready.”
“It’s chicken noodle soup. Madam ordered it to be stewed. You and Madam have a telepathic connection. Madam didn’t order us to make chicken soup two days ago. We just made it today, and you’re back.”
Heng Yi said nothing.
He sat down silently.
However, Bai Cha knew that he was in a bad mood.
“Master, what’s wrong?”
“Bai Cha, when you were in the High Duke’s Public House, how did the servants do things?”

Bai Cha was stunned.
He thought for a moment and said, “When I return, I can be the housekeeper of this residence.”
“It would be a waste of talent,” He said. Heng Yi is not willing to follow the order.
“I want to climb up and bring you along.”
“Everything depends on one’s efforts. If you can’t do it today, it doesn’t mean that you can’t do it in the future.”
Heng Yi already had some ideas, but he learned them bit by bit and wasn’t tactful enough.
He wasn’t sophisticated enough.
“Alright, I’ll wait for the day I soar with Master.”
Bai Cha laughed.
This time, they caught a few deer. The Feng family was generous and gave them two thousand taels of silver.
Heng Yi gave half of the income to Bai Cha and told him to bring it to the barren land.
As for how much to give him, it was Bai Cha’s business.
He felt that it was very fair for each of them to take half of the profit from the trip.
Heng Yi finished the noodles in two or three bites, then said to Bai Cha, “Go to the broker house and ask the granny to bring a few people over. Also, take these people away from the manor.”
Bai Cha did not ask why.
He knew Heng Yi’s personality. If he wasn’t angry, he wouldn’t have sold these people out.
“Alright.”
He quickly ate his noodles and got up to walk out.
When he saw Uncle Hu, he greeted him politely, “Butler Hu.”

Uncle Hu was stunned.
“What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?” Bai Cha asked.
Heng Yi came out of the kitchen and echoed, “1 think Bai Cha said the right thing, Butler Hu.”
Butler Hu bent down. “There was no mistake.”
His heart gradually sank to the bottom.
He was too arrogant.
Heng Yi didn’t say anything and walked to the main courtyard.
Bai Cha rode out.
Butler Hu stood where he was and let out a deep breath.
There shouldn’t be another mistake.
The change in address was also related to the change in status.
When Heng Yi returned to the main courtyard, Han Qiao had already boiled the water.
His heart ached and he felt warm at the same time.
“I can do it myself.”
“It’s not a big deal. Hurry up and wash up. 1 have something to tell you when you’re done.”
Heng Yi went to the bathroom.
The clothes were ready, but there was no hot water.
He was a little surprised, but he didn’t think too much about it.
He took a few buckets of water, took a quick shower, and changed into clean clothes. He felt much more relaxed.
Han Qiao dried his hair.
She took a comb and combed his hair.
“Auntie Hu came over just now and asked a few questions for no reason. Then, she left in a hurry.”
“I went to vent my anger. The master’s room was cold and there was no one around. Meanwhile, the servants were enjoying tea and snacks.”
Heng Yi held Han Qiao’s hand and pulled her into his arms. “I’m going to sell those maids and old women.”

Han Qiao was a little surprised.
Heng Yi was so angry.
“Ah-Qiao, we’re different from before. Even if we’re from a lowly background, we’re still masters, don’t you think so?”
Han Qiao nodded.
She kissed Heng Yi’s forehead. “That’s right.”
“It’s also because I’ve been a little lazy recently. Don’t worry, I know what to do next.”
Heng Yi smiled and gave Han Qiao a silver note.
“Half of the earnings from this trip were given to Bai Cha. This is ours.”
Han Qiao took it and kissed Heng Yi a few times.
She hugged him and said, “Actually, I have something to tell you too. Although I’m not sure yet, I think it’s pretty close.”
“What?”
Heng Yi was overjoyed.
He carried Han Qiao to the bed.
He gently placed her on the bed and kissed her red lips.
His eyes were looking at her lustfully.
Han Qiao took Heng Yi’s hand and placed it on her abdomen. “I might be pregnant.”

Heng Yi blinked.
And then blinked again.
He suddenly jumped up and reached out to touch Han Qiao, but he was afraid of touching her.
“Did 1 press it just now?” He asked hurriedly.
“Lie down and don’t move. 1,1…”
He jumped off the bed and saw Han Qiao smiling at him.
He was stunned at first, then he covered his face and squatted down to cry.
Han Qiao was stunned.
After a while, she stood up and hugged Heng Yi.
This was a pitiful man.
He had never received any love since he was young.
His happiness started after he got married.
Now, there would finally be a child who was related to him by blood.
“Ah-Qiao, thank you.”
Han Qiao felt sad when she heard this.
“Yes, you’re welcome. I’m willing.”
Heng Yi looked up at Han Qiao. “I will become strong. I will protect you and our children. 1 will make a lot of money so that you don’t have to worry about food and clothing. You can do whatever you want.”
“I believe you, Heng Yi. I always believe you.”
Han Qiao did not care about the matters in the residence.
Those two old women and the two young maids…. No matter how they cried or begged for mercy, none were left behind.
Heng Yi didn’t understand how to choose good servants, so he asked Bai Cha to help him pick.
Bai Cha had a sharp eye when it came to choosing people.
The main courtyard needed two maids and an old woman to run errands for Han Qiao and serve tea.
In addition, there were two maids and one old woman in each courtyard. Their tasks were also to run errands and serve tea.
Four people were chosen for the kitchen, and they all had their own specialty dishes.
Aunt Zhao was in charge of them.
It should be said that the maids and old women in the backyard were all managed by Aunt Zhao.
Then, he picked three manservants who knew some martial arts.
Now, there were more than ten people in the residence.
The five servants were under Butler Hu’s control. In fact, Heng Yi had already stripped Butler Hu of a lot of his power.
For example, the kitchen and the courtyards were no longer his responsibility.
The first thing Heng Yi did for these people was to throw Han Xiang and her husband out.
Han Xiang cried, “Grandpa, Grandma.”
Grandpa and Grandma felt sorry for their granddaughter. Heng Yi said lightly, “She talked nonsense in the main courtyard, and every word she said pierced people’s hearts.”
“For Ah-Qiao’s sake, I won’t hold it against her. However, 1 will cut off all ties with her and the Zhou family in the future.”
“Grandpa, Grandma, you know me well. You can scold me, but you can’t scold my wife..”
