This was the first time Grandpa and Grandma had eaten braised meat. They could smell the fragrance with their mouth. The venison was very tasty and soft. Whenever they took a bite, they would immediately want to take a second one.
Han Qiao only ate a large bowl of green vegetables cooked with chicken soup. It was sweet and sizzling. She didn’t even eat rice. She was satisfied with just a bowl of green vegetables.
Han Qiao was having morning sickness, and she couldn’t eat anything else.
Heng Yi was a little worried, but seeing her rosy face, he relaxed a little.
After dinner, he walked to digest food.
Heng Yi then told Han Qiao about the Ming family stealing vegetables.
“Looks like I have to arrange for a few people to go to the manor. Firstly, we need suitable and capable people there. Secondly, we need someone to guard and do the farm work. We can’t ask our uncles and brothers to help us with everything.”
It was okay to come once in a while, but after a while, people would be unhappy.
“I see that there is still a lot of wastelands on the side. Let’s buy it and reclaim it. Whether it’s the fields or the land, it will ultimately belong to our family.”
Han Qiao said to Heng Yi gently along the way.
Heng Yi had no objections.
“I can’t help you with the restaurant, but leave the matter of buying land to me.” Heng Yi said.
Han Qiao nodded.
As for those people from the Ming family, it was useless to report it to the authorities now. There was no one in the government office, which also gave the Ming family time to think of a countermeasure.
Heng Yi and Han Qiao weren’t evil people, nor were they vengeful. They couldn’t stand the Ming family’s attitude, and now they were just taking the opportunity to teach them a lesson. If they didn’t teach these people a lesson, they would steal again.
Early in the morning of the fourth day, Heng Yi brought Bia Cha into the mountain again.
When the Ming family came over, Han Qiao was talking to Butler Hu and the others about harvesting the spring bamboo shoots.
“Let them go, I won’t see them.”
What was there to see in an ungrateful person?
The gates of Heng Manor were tightly shut.
Uncle Ming was waiting outside with his two sons and a few large baskets of vegetables.
These were all bought from the villagers, and the price was much more expensive than usual.
Uncle Ming knew that Han Qiao was a powerful woman from the moment he saw her.
Before he came, he couldn’t help but think that the woman was soft-hearted. She would listen to his pleas. How could he know that he couldn’t even enter the door?
Looking at this gorgeous residence, Uncle Ming felt even more uneasy.
“Father…”
Uncle Ming looked at his son silently.
He wanted to beat up these two bastards.
He was already married and was already a father, yet he still stole other people’s vegetables.
The news about the Heng family wanting to collect bamboo shoots quickly spread. Almost as soon as the notice was posted, many people saw it.
Some people started to look, while others had already started digging. By noon, they had arrived at the back door of the Heng Manor.
Han Qiao brought some people to take a look personally. They were all very tall and had yellow tips. They cost a penny per catty. They were not short of catty or two, and they did not make things difficult for them.
They weigh the bamboo shoots and pay the people who found them.
Han Qiao asked everyone to take a look at the bamboo shoots that she had bought. Basically, this standard would be used for the next half a month.
“Stewed pork with bamboo shoots tonight.”
Although it was spring bamboo shoots, it was still necessary to put cold water into the pot, add salt to cook it, scoop it into cold water, and then cut it into appropriate pieces to stew with pork, ribs, and pig’s feet.
It didn’t mean that the pork, ribs, and pig’s feet were all placed together, she placed them separately.
Bamboo shoots absorb oil, so when stewing, they should add more meat.
This bamboo shoot could also be sliced and stir-fried with last year’s bacon. It was extremely delicious.
Bamboo shoots, bacon, and onions were mixed to make buns. They were very delicious.
In order to take care of her grandfather and grandmother who had bad teeth, the bamboo shoots and bacon were cut into small pieces.
“I’ve lived for so long, but 1 didn’t know that there are so many ways to eat a bamboo shoot.” Grandma could not help but sigh.
Grandpa was waiting for the steamed bun to come out.
The wild boar meat that Heng Yi and Bai Cha had hunted yesterday was even more fragrant when stewed with bamboo shoots.
The fragrance wafted to the neighbor’s house and made the children cry.
When Han Qiao heard the crying, she was surprised to see that she wanted to build a good relationship with her neighbors.
She asked Aunt Zhao to bring the cooks to cook more and send some to the neighbors next door.
She made a big pot of wild boar meat stewed with bamboo shoots and made more than ten baskets of bacon and bamboo shoot buns. Han Qiao asked Shulan and Duan Yue to carry them.
When she went out, she saw the Ming father and sons waiting in the corner. Han Qiao glanced at them indifferently and knocked on the door next door.
“You…”
“I made some food at home and sent it over for your master and madam to try.”
“Thank you, Madam Heng.”
When Han Qiao returned home, Uncle Ming immediately brought his two sons forward. Almost out of instinct or genuine fear, Uncle Ming brought his two sons and knelt down before Han Qiao, “Please have mercy, Madam.”
Han Qiao looked at Uncle Ming, “Your kneeling doesn’t mean anything. I don’t know if you have the heart to repent. After all, there’s no telling what’s in a person’s heart.”
“To be honest, people like you don’t deserve sympathy. Because you’re a repeat offender, if the upper beam of a house is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. With a father like you, you gave birth to such shallow sons.”
“After you redeem yourselves from the Zhong family, you will be free. They are already adults and know what they are doing.”
If they were three to five-year-old children, people could excuse their actions for being playful. However, since they are fathers in their twenties, nobody could see their actions as playful. People could only describe them as greedy.
After Han Qiao finished speaking, she brought Duan Yue and Shulan home.
Before leaving, Duan Yue took a few steps back and looked at the three of them indifferently and coldly.
It was as if she was looking at the most disgusting maggots she had ever seen.
She opened her mouth to say something, but after thinking about it, she realized that it would be a waste of her breath to say anything to them.
Uncle Ming and his son slowly stood up.
“Father…”
Uncle Ming looked at them.
“I didn’t teach you well. It’s my fault. Go home, do what you should do. You have made a mistake and should be punished.”
Back then, when they redeemed themselves from the Zhong family, he was still complacent.
However, they didn’t expect others to see their misdeeds.
He was heartless and ungrateful.
No one would be merciful to them.
Heng Yi and Bai Cha’s harvest today was quite good. Heng Yi thought that his family was going to open a restaurant, so they needed meat the most, so he hunted four wild boars. He wanted to share with Bai Cha, but Bai Cha was not strong enough to carry them, so he carried all four of them himself.
Bai Cha was stunned.
A wild boar would weigh at least one to two hundred catties, and four of them would weigh at least five hundred catties.
It was a little difficult for Heng Yi to lift his prize, but he could still do it.
“Master-”
“It’s not very heavy to carry them with this method.”
Bai Cha didn’t want to say anything more.
Was his master speaking human language?
When he went down the mountain to the manor, he hung the wild boar on the horse and led the horse home.
When they met Wen Yu and Gu Jiu at the city gate, they were so excited to see Heng Yi.
“You two waited for me?”
“You guessed it,” Gu Jiu smiled, staring at the wild boar on Heng Yi’s horse.
Envy. They really envy him.
They finally understood that Heng Yi couldn’t hunt anything with them because there were too many people and the sound of footsteps was too loud. The wild beasts would have run away when they heard them.
“Heng Yi, how about we discuss something?”
