Zeng Asan pondered for a moment before saying, “Yes, they are the ones who will enjoy the benefits and share their worries. Madam has given them a chance today. They should go through fire and water for Madam. They will not hesitate.”
“Go back and tell them to pack their things.”
Zeng Asan was overjoyed when he came back to his senses, “Thank you, Madam! Thank you, Madam!”
“If your parents are willing, 1 need two gatekeepers at the back door of my house. The work is easy. I just need them to watch the door and not let anyone who comes to sell bamboo shoots or firewood enter the courtyard.”
Hearing this, Zeng Asan knelt down and kowtowed. “Zeng Asan will always remember Madam’s kindness.”
“I’m giving you these things because I naturally need you to do your job well.”
“When you do things well, remember to convince people with reason, not with fists.”
“Yes.”
Zeng Asan nodded repeatedly.
He kept saying that he would work hard.
When he walked out of the Heng Manor, Zeng Asan’s legs were weak, and his footsteps were a little slow.
It had only been less than a month since he worked for Madam. Madam Han was kind and reasonable.
She did not look down on him.
His parents and children would be in the residence in the future. They would not have to worry about food and clothing. He would do his job well and guard Madam’s restaurants well.
Zeng Asan went home to tell his family the good news.
The Zeng family was stunned at first, then hugged each other and cried.
In truth, they were never incapable. They were just a little unlucky and could not do anything about their situation.
Now that they finally had a chance, the whole family was so happy that they wished they could laugh out loud.
Han Qiao’s words were indeed a reward for Zeng Asan’s deed. Although it was not without bloodshed, it was also a warning to Zhao Huan and the others.
It was possible to open a fast-food restaurant. But, you had to be prepared, or you could open it in every county.
While they were preparing a small courtyard for the Zeng family, someone from the government office came and said that the thief they caught last night had escaped.
“He was too fast to catch up.” The more the government office people spoke, the more embarrassed they became.
Han Qiao was not angry.
“Did anyone go after him?”
“Yes, but we can’t catch up. He left no trace at all.”
“I understand. I’ve troubled you to make this trip. Shulan.”
Shulan immediately went to get the pouch.
The bailiff who came to deliver the news happily accepted it and opened it after leaving Heng Manor.
There were two taels of silver inside.
“Mrs. Heng is generous.”
According to Heng Yi’s current status, Han Qiao could also be called “Mrs”.
However, more people were still willing to call her Mrs. Heng.
Back in the Heng Mansion, Han Qiao asked Duan Yue to invite Jianing over.
Jianing was still a little lazy. It was obvious that she hadn’t slept well last night.
“Did you not sleep well last night?” Han Qiao asked.
Jianing glanced at Han Qiao before shifting her gaze away.
That was enough of an answer.
In her dreams, she was filled with the harsh training in the past, wandering between life and death.
“Jianing, your martial arts are very skilled. Are you willing to take a few disciples?” Han Qiao asked.
She invited Jianing for tea.
Jianing suddenly looked up at Han Qiao, “You want me to teach the young ladies and young masters?”
“Yes, although I didn’t see your ability with my own eyes last night, you were able to discover the thief at the first moment. It shows that you are very skilled in martial arts. I thought that the children would learn some skills from you.”
These were Han Qiao’s heartfelt words.
She was not worried about Han Chi.
This child was smart, brave, and very scheming.
She was worried about Sun Xiu, Sun Ke, and Sun Yi. When Heng Yi’s identity changed, these three girls would be targeted as well.
If they have the ability, they could protect themselves whenever they were in trouble.
“It’s not that I can’t, but 1 have a request, “Jianing said.
“Please speak.”
“Three meals a day, whatever Master eats, I will eat.”
“Alright.”
It was just three meals a day. This was nothing.
“What about the monthly salary?” Han Qiao asked.
“I don’t have any requests. 1 don’t lack money. Also, don’t look for me for nothing. If there’s something, if it’s my business, I’m willing to help.”
Jianing was a rather arrogant person.
She had also suffered a lot.
She was willing to teach a few children, spend some time with them, and observe them for a while. She found that Han Qiao was quite interesting.
Of course, the food in Heng Manor was exceptionally delicious.
She didn’t have any other hobbies, but she was a little lazy and greedy.
She didn’t have the chance to say it earlier, but now since she brought it up…
“Don’t worry, 1 understand.”
Good steel should be used on the blade. Some trump cards should be hidden and not known by too many people.
A few children were also called over by Han Qiao and respectfully kowtowed to Jianing to offer tea.
They were so respectful that Jianing felt a little embarrassed.
“Alright, alright. Hurry up and get up. Come over early tomorrow.”
Then, she hurriedly returned to the courtyard where the servant girls lived.
According to Han Qiao’s wishes, Jianing would be given a small courtyard to stay in, and she would be the only one staying there.
Jianing didn’t agree.
Pucao still did everything. She did the dirty and tiring work. She didn’t slack off at all and didn’t approach Han Qiao either.
Xia He took a long time to consider before she made up her mind and finally came to Han Qiao, “Madam, this servant… This servant wants to give birth to this child.”
“…” Han Qiao looked at Xia He’s face.
She frowned slightly.
After thinking for a while, she said, “Since you plan to give birth to this child, then go to the manor in the mountain.”
They got pregnant at around the same time.
Han Qiao did not want to give birth to a child and give Xia He an opportunity to take advantage of it.
She didn’t want her to switch their children.
It was not her fault for being petty. This kind of thing was not uncommon. There was no DNA in ancient times.
Xia He did not expect Han Qiao to send her to the manor in the mountain, but she still nodded. “Yes.”
She couldn’t help but ask, “Madam, when can I return?”
“We’ll talk about it after you give birth.”
Xia He nodded, “When Madam has given birth, do you want to hire a nanny? This servant can nurse your child for you…”
Han Qiao’s face darkened.
She stared straight at Xia He, making the servant’s heart beat faster.
She was extremely flustered.
“Girls,” Han Qiao whispered.
Shulan and Duan Yue immediately came forward, “Madam.”
Han Qiao stared at Xia He.
They weren’t that sentimental to begin with.
This was the first time Han Qiao suspected Xia He of being too scheming.
“Xia He, let me ask you again. Are you sure you want to keep the child in your stomach?”
“Yes,” Xia He lowered her head in a low voice.
“Are you hoping to return to your young master?” Han Qiao asked again.
Xia He hurriedly shook her head, “This servant just can’t bear to part with him. This servant will work hard. This servant…”
“Alright, I understand now. It’s your child. You do have the right to decide whether he stays or leaves. You have made your own choice today. I hope you won’t regret it in the future, and don’t mistreat your child. Shulan, go get someone to prepare. You will personally send Xia He to the manor and instruct the people there to take care of her.”
“Yes.”
Xia He was sent away.
She had the nerve to even entertain the thought that she could have the chance to come back and be a nanny.
If she gave birth at around the same time Han Qiao did…
If Han Qiao gave birth to a son, and she did the same… If Han Qiao gave birth to a daughter, and she gave birth to a daughter too…
However, Han Qiao had been wary of her ever since she decided to keep the child and her wariness only solidified when she said that she could be a nanny for her child.
She would never give her a chance to return to the Heng Manor..
