Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Han Qiao’s words really stirred up a thousand waves.
Lan Cheng was shocked.
Even Wen Yu and Gu Jiu were dumbstruck.
Thirteen counties and twenty-six shops. How much silver would they earn in a month?
However, Han Qiao acted as if she was saying that the weather was good today and did not feel that there was anything wrong with it.
Han Qiao didn’t say that she would leave Lan Cheng behind, so she didn’t care about other things.
She also wanted to see Lan Cheng’s household registration card and the travel pass for this trip.
In this era, unless you worked as an official, people had to go to the government office to get a travel pass if they wanted to leave the county. This travel pass was not free. One had to pay a certain amount of money to get one. Therefore, unless one was rich, ordinary people would not leave the county. Some people had never left the village from birth to death.
Han Qiao showed Wen Yu Lan Cheng’s household registration and travel pass.
There were specializations in every field. Wen Yu and Gu Jiu could tell at a glance whether the household registration post and travel pass were real or fake.
After they read it, they handed it back to Han Qiao and nodded.
The travel pass and household registration card were real.
Of course, there was still a small chance of people swapping them in this day and age.
Han Qiao didn’t just look at Lan Cheng’s household registration, she also looked at the other shopkeeper’s registration.
“I’ll send someone back to your hometown. You don’t have to worry. It’s just to confirm your identity.”
As long as you were right, there shouldn’t be anything for you to be afraid of.
Lan Cheng became the head, and the other shopkeepers hurriedly agreed.
Their home was not far from Puyi County, and it would only take them a few days to go back and forth.
Furthermore, Han Qiao had to prepare to open a chain in another county.
Han Qiao still had 15,000 taels of silver on hand. She could open a fast food restaurant in every county.
She could take her time with the restaurants, so for now, she doesn’t have to go to Chenzhou City for the time being. She had enough money.
However, she didn’t want to do everything herself, so she left it to Lan Cheng and the other shopkeepers to help her. She told them to choose a county and to go there to look after the shops. Once they found the most advantageous spot, she would send someone to deliver the letter, and then she would set off with Heng Yi.
Even though Heng Yi didn’t need to go to the office, he didn’t have much free time.
He read books and learned new words every day, and his tasks were heavy.
And he had to practice martial arts.
Jianing’s blade and sword techniques were all great killing moves, and every move she made was ruthless. Heng Yi only needed to watch a few times to be able to practice it from beginning to end.
However, it would take time for him to master them.
Bai Cha, Wen Yu, and Gu Jiu followed behind him.
The men were actually very busy.
Even Wen Yu and Gu Jiu followed suit and learned to read. In their early years, they had also gone to school, but they were young at that time and did not study hard. Fortunately, they had a chance to learn again. They were just a little behind in their studies.
The housekeeper of the manor in the mountains came to the manor in Puyi County.
“Madam, the vegetables in the fields have been plucked clean. It’s going to be spring plowing soon. Should we plow the fields and water them?”
“Those barren mountains have almost been reclaimed. The people who came to work in the village asked when they would be paid their wages.”
“This servant followed Madam’s instructions and raised three hundred chickens in the mountain. These chickens were hatched by the nearby farmers themselves. The prices for them were not expensive and it was easy to raise them. The chicken pens are cleaned from their droppings every day, the water trough was washed every day, and the chicken food is also fresh,”
Han Qiao listened to the housekeeper’s report.
She gave some suggestions.
When Han Qiao asked if someone could manage her other manor well, this old woman was the first person to step forward. Now, it seemed that what she had claimed was true; she had done a good job.
After giving the money, she let the old woman return.
The housekeeper hesitated for a moment before saying, “Xia He is pregnant now. This servant did not dare to let her do too much work, but she always rushed to do them. She even told others that when she gave birth, she would return to the residence to be the nanny for the little master.”
Han Qiao sneered, “When you go back if you hear her say anything else, tell her I’ve already chosen a nanny for the child. I won’t let her come back to this house to be a nanny.”
Hearing this, the housekeeper looked at Han Qiao in surprise.
She thought, the fact that Han Qiao and the servant, Xia He, were pregnant at the same time, would make Xia He a good choice to be her child’s nanny.
“This will be my first child with the Master. Not only the nanny has to be chosen carefully, but the people that would serve them in the future especially so.”
The old woman in charge didn’t understand what Han Qiao meant at first.
However, she quickly understood and immediately sat up straight, “Don’t worry, Madam. I know what to do.”
Some words didn’t need to be said out loud.
This woman had dared to stand up and say that she was qualified to be a housekeeper, which meant she had some courage and confidence in her ability.
Han Qiao knew that she could handle this matter.
Xia He had used the excuse that she could return to Heng Manor to gain a firm foothold in the house. She thought that Han Qiao would be forced to come back under the pressure of public opinion if she told everyone that she would come back to be a nanny in the future. What a fool’s dream.
After the housekeeper left, Han Qiao discussed with Heng Yi about taking the children back to Xishan Village.
Most importantly, Zhen Niang’s house in Ninghe Town had already been sold and was secretly bought by Third Brother Hu. They had to go over and settle the deed.
When the time came, they would have to build it and rent it out.
She also wanted to go back to Xishan Village to visit her grandparents.
“Then let’s go out on the sixth day.”
“Alright.”
The bamboo shoots in this season were not very good, but without bamboo shoots, raspberries, mulberries, and cherries would also start to appear in the market.
Raspberry jam, cherry wine, and mulberry jam were all good stuff.
When she went back this time, she also discussed with her family that other than firewood for the four seasons, she could put aside the matter of harvesting bamboo shoots.
Heng Yi hadn’t been idle these past few days. He brought two more horses and a large and comfortable carriage.
Han Qiao was surprised. The children went up to the carriage and praised it non-stop.
“Mother, this carriage is so comfortable!”
Especially the main seats, it was laid with thick cushions, pillows, and a few things that could be placed.
There was a clay stove in the corner to boil water as well.
Han Qiao knew that Heng Yi had spent a lot to buy this.
This carriage was meant to be pulled by two horses.
On the sixth day of the lunar new year, there was no need to worry about the county town with Housekeeper Liu and Shopkeeper Zhu.
Wen Yu and Gu Jiu said that they wanted to follow them for a walk to broaden their horizons.
Reading and studying every day was also very tiring.
Han Qiao took the big carriage with the children and Heng Yi, while Zeng Qin’er, Zeng Baobao, and Shu Lan rode in the small carriage following behind them.
Bai Cha was driving the first carriage while Dong Lai drove the one behind.
In the carriage, He Cheng was the happiest. He would eat pastries, drink water, and lean against the window to look at the flowers and plants outside.
He was overjoyed at everything he saw.
He kept shouting, “Mother, look, flower!”
Because of Han Qiao, who was pregnant, the carriage did not travel fast.
On the way, they even had a picnic by the stream.
Heng Yi caught fish from the stream, went to the forest to catch pheasants, and brought a pot to boil porridge.
The children also found a large area of raspberries, and they were immediately unable to walk.
The horns were big and red. They were held in leaves and handed in front of Han Qiao, “Mother, eat!”
Han Qiao pinched one and put it into her mouth. It was sweet to the core.
The laughter of children surrounded her. She leaned against Heng Yi’s chest and couldn’t help but sigh, “Such happiness is so good..”
