Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Han Qiao didn’t know what the group of disgusting people was planning. They were probably doing something disgusting together.
She was busy making sesame candy in the kitchen.
Sesame candy was also known as sweet potato hawthorn candy. In Yun Gui Chuan J), it was called sesame soup. It could be curled up into a ball with chopsticks and slowly licked and bitten. One lump could be eaten for a long time.
Han Qiao would always bring the three children along with her to teach them step by step. She hoped that they would remember so that if they were to have their own family in the future, they would have the ability to survive.
Not just by being rich and noble, but in the least, they would have some skills in hand and would not starve to death.
“When the wheat sprouts, put it in a stone roller and grind it. You also need to use a pair of nests to break it up. The finer, the better.”
“Shred or slice the sweet potatoes and cook them in the pot.”
“Pouring the ferment in and waiting for them to be mashed.”
“The last step is filtering.”
“Put the sugar juice into the pot and slowly simmer it over a small fire.”
“Until the sticky liquid is scooped into the pot and solidified.”
Several people worked hard for the entire afternoon before they finally got a clay pot, which was about ten catties of sugar.
However, the three children were very excited and happy to learn.
After all, they had learned something by participating in this.
Han Qiao was very good at teaching children.
“Today, 1 will lead you to do it. Tomorrow, you will be in charge. Do you remember the steps?”
“Got it.” The three children spoke in unison.
Heng Yi came back from the government office and learned that Han Qiao and the others were in the kitchen. He immediately enter.
“Father.” The three children shouted in unison.
“Yes.”
Sun Ke quickly ran into the house, stirred a lump of sugar, and ran out to give it to Heng Yi.
“Father, you eat.”
H ii
Heng Yi paused.
He had never eaten malts before.
When he was young, he had craved it, but he couldn’t eat it. When he grew up, he didn’t have the appetite. It didn’t matter if he ate it or not.
“If your daughter gives it to you, just take it. We’ve all eaten. It’s very sweet.” Han Qiao urged.
Heng Yi hesitated for a while, but still reached out to take it and took a bite.
“Father, is it sweet?” Sun Ke asked softly, her eyes filled with hope.
“Yes, it’s sweet. Have you eaten?” Heng Yi asked.
“I’ve eaten. Mother said that I can eat it once a day. Otherwise, if I eat too much, my teeth will rot. Father, we’ll make it for you tomorrow. You can come back early and drink the sweet soup, okay?”
“Okay,” Heng Yi nodded.
After hesitating for a while, he reached out and rubbed Sun Ke’s head.
“Go play.”
He still didn’t know how to get along with children.
Back in the Heng family, he wasn’t close to the children.
“Yes, yes.” Sun Ke nodded vigorously.
Han Qiao smiled. “Since you’re back, let’s eat.”
“I’ll go call Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa.” Sun Ke ran away as soon as she finished speaking.
She also brought He Cheng over.
He Cheng was already used to living in his own courtyard, but he had to see his parents every day.
He had completely forgotten about his biological parents, running over to Heng Yi and Han Qiao as soon as he saw them.
Just as she was about to jump into Han Qiao’s arms, Heng Yi picked her up.
“Mom…”
He stretched out his hand and asked Han Qiao to carry him.
Han Qiao wanted to hug him, but Heng Yi didn’t allow it.
“Daddy will carry you and play with you.”
However, he didn’t know how to play with a child. He could only hold the child while Sun Ke played with He Cheng.
The dishes were placed on the table.
He Cheng happily shouted, “Meat, meat, meat!”
He was carried by the nanny and fed mouthful by mouthful.
The stewed lean meat was crushed into fine pieces and mixed with the rice. It was delicious.
Nanny and servant girls took good care of He Cheng.
After dinner, Han Qiao praised them and gave each of them a hundred copper as a reward.
“Thank you, Madam.”
They came after He Cheng lived in the manor, so they didn’t know He Cheng wasn’t Han Qiao and Heng Yi’s child.
After all, the three young ladies all called the baby Cheng’er, and He Cheng also called them Sister.
Receiving a reward meant receiving affirmation.
Now, Han Qiao’s family has started to set rules. She was not a strict master, but they had to follow the rules.
Housekeeper Hu’s family was much more stable now. Aunt Hu did not dare to say some vague hints to the servant girls and old women.
Moreover, the mother and son had to do some work that they could do. Han Qiao was very straightforward. It was impossible not to work.
She brought them back to work, not to be her ancestors and to only eat and not work.
They had to clean the yard and pick up the fallen leaves.
Han Qiao didn’t know what their son, Hu Jiancheng, was thinking, but he was still diligent.
He was also quite smart.
After dinner, Heng Yi led Han Qiao to the main courtyard.
He also told Han Qiao about what happened in the government office today.
Han Qiao was silent for a moment before saying, “The world is tough. It’s not easy to live.”
Heng Yi didn’t feel much.
Because he knew that it was easy for him to earn money.
However, after hearing Han Qiao’s words, he thought of the myriad of living beings.
“Then I’ll discuss with Constable Qin and the others. When they have some time, I’ll bring them into the mountains again.”
“Be careful when you go up there. Some hunters know how to dig traps.”
Heng Yi nodded.
Protect Han Qiao.
Han Qiao then said to Heng Yi, “Sun Yiming and Zhen Niang came to the county town and are staying with Zhao Huan. Today, Ah-Xiu and the others bumped into each other when they went shopping.”
Heng Yi frowned. “What are they doing here?”
“Zhen Niang and Zhao Huan are not easy to deal with. One is greedy and the other is evil. They are not good people. We have to guard against them.”
“I’ve also told the servants in this residence that they are not allowed to tell anyone about the people or things in the residence. Whoever dares to do so will be sold to the lowest Goulan Courtyard.”
“But the restaurant…”
Han Qiao paused for a moment. “After the new year, I plan to change the name of the restaurant. Also, the waiters and servants will have to sign a contract if they want to stay.”
“If they do anything that harms the restaurant while working there, they will be fully responsible. If they can’t take responsibility, they will go to jail.”
Heng Yi looked at Han Qiao and said, “Can you do that?”
“Of course. This is called shifting responsibility. Since they want to get a high salary, they have to pay something. Those people knew Zhao Huan a long time ago, so they might see Zhao Huan as their master.”
“Actually, I want Zhao Huan to open her own restaurant and get rid of her people.”
Heng Yi thought for a moment. “I’ll send someone to tell her.”
“What do you mean?”
“Leave this to me.”
Han Qiao smiled at Heng Yi.
She knew that this person was actually quite sly.
“Then I’ll wait for your good news.”
Heng Yi didn’t do much about it, he just told Wen Yu, and Wen Yu instantly understood.
He turned around and asked someone to go to the Zhao family. The Zhao family almost turned around and went to look for Zhao Huan.
Zhao Huan thought it was feasible.
Moreover, Zhen Niang had told her that as long as she spoke, the people of
Yihe Restaurant would definitely be able to call them away.
Zhao Huan also wanted to earn a hundred taels of silver a month.
“Then let’s start operating.”
That restaurant belonged to Heng Yi, so she couldn’t take it away.
However, buying a restaurant outside also required a lot of money.
“I can partner with you.”
The two of them decided to invest 400 taels each to buy the shop.
Their luck was good. On the 21st of December, they bought a shop.
When Heng Yi heard the news and came back to tell Han Qiao, she was just about to ask a doctor to check her pulse.
After checking Grandpa and Grandma’s pulse, the doctor moves on to check Han Qiao’s pulse.
Heng Yi clenched his fists nervously.
Grandpa and Grandma sat at the side and watched eagerly.
The three children were also a little nervous.
The doctor retracted his hand. “Let’s switch arms.”
Han Qiao calmly changed her other hand.
After taking his pulse with another hand, the doctor said, “Congratulations, Master Heng. Madam has a happy pulse. From her pulse, she’s already been pregnant for more than a month.”
Heng Yi’s body trembled.
He wanted to say something, but nothing came out of his mouth.
