Chapter 259: Grandpa and Grandma’s Choice
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Grandma’s 8oth birthday wasn’t planned to be a big one, but Han Qiao and the rest were moving to Chenzhou City, so they had to show their sincerity.
Han Qiao ordered a jade bracelet from the shop.
She planned to return to Xishan Village before she left Puyi County and took Ah-Yao back for a trip.
Grandpa didn’t come even after a month. Firstly, he was old, and secondly, Grandpa seemed to have caught a cold.
Perhaps they were even more afraid that she wouldn’t let them go back to the county town because of what happened.
But in truth, Han Qiao also understood.
It wasn’t that Grandpa and Grandma didn’t want to come to the county town, nor did they want to go to Chenzhou. They just wanted to preserve their relationship with Uncle and the others.
They were on her side, and others had to talk.
They had a few sons yet they did not live in their sons’ houses, and instead, they lived in their granddaughters’ houses.
They were afraid that people would talk about how unfilial their sons were.
When the bracelet arrived, Han Qiao decided to return to Xishan Village.
She brought her grandparents to the county town for a few days.
Maybe after this farewell, they might not see each other for a year, or maybe even three years.
When Han Qiao and Heng Yi were talking about this, Heng Yi said, “I’ll go to Xishan Village to pick them up.”
“Do you want me to go with you?” Han Qiao asked.
“No need, I can persuade Grandpa and Grandma.”
Heng Yi drove the carriage and left for Xishan Village that very day.
When he arrived at Xishan Village, Eldest Sister-in-law Han was surprised. “Why is Brother-in-law here?”
“I’m here to bring Grandpa and Grandma to the county town for a few days. We’re moving to Chenzhou soon.”
Eldest Sister-in-law Han expressed her understanding.
When Heng Yi first saw Grandfather and Grandmother, they looked old and haggard.
They had been fair and fat in the county town, but now they were much thinner. Their clothes were not as clean when they were in the county town.
Heng Yi opened his mouth.
For a moment, he felt a little uncomfortable.
“Heng Yi!” Grandpa called out with a smile.
He had caught a cold a few days ago. It was not very serious, but he could not eat too much.
The countryside was not like the county town, where there was a lot of food. Back in the county town, if he could not eat a certain food, the cook immediately changed to something else.
If they were not allowed to eat greasy food, they would have lighter dishes. If the rice was difficult to swallow, they changed it to porridge. Then, there would be various soups to accompany their meal. There would always be something palatable for them to eat.
“Grandpa, it’s me.” Heng Yi stepped closer to them.
Squatting in front of Grandpa, he held his hand. “Grandpa, I’m here to pick you and Grandma up and bring you to the county town for a few days.”
“To the county…?” Grandpa hesitated.
He wanted to go.
It was nice to go to the county town. Everything would be arranged. They would go to the opera every day and the hot food would be ready at any time.
He didn’t even need to prepare anything himself.
There were even people massaging his hands and feet…
“Grandpa, I’ll go talk to Eldest Uncle and Youngest Uncle.”
Heng Yi patted his grandpa’s hand and went to find his uncles.
Eldest Uncle was working in the fields, and Second Uncle went out to collect things and did not come back.
When Heng Yi arrived, his uncles and aunts were very enthusiastic. They talked to Heng Yi and asked him about their children.
“They’re all under Ah-Qiao’s control, so I’m not too sure.”
Even if he knew, Heng Yi wouldn’t tell them.
He wouldn’t care about such things. Han Qiao could scold and punish her family, but he couldn’t.
When Uncle Yao came back, he was covered in mud.
Seeing Heng Yi, he smiled. “Why are you here? Is Ah-Yu still sensible? If he’s not, then I give you my blessing to teach him a lesson.”
“Cousin Ah-Yu is very good. He studies and practices martial arts very hard.”
The youngest uncle smiled happily when he heard that.
He let Heng Yi sit down first and went to wash up.
Aunt Yao quickly followed, “Why are you covered in mud?”
“He fell into the field when he was pulling a cow for someone.”
If it weren’t for the mud, he wouldn’t have come back.
“Hurry up and wash up. Heng Yi is here to take Father and Mother to the county. Do you think he and Ah-Qiao are going to take them to Chenzhou?” Aunt Yao said in a whisper.
Uncle Yao’s hand that was taking off his clothes paused.
After a while, he said, “It would be good if Father and Mother could go to Chenzhou. At the very least, they can live a few more years.”
Aunt Yao didn’t know what to say.
“It’s not that Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law are unfilial. It’s just that there are only these people in the family, and everyone is very busy. Father and Mother don’t eat as delicately as they do in the county town. Ah-Qiao is an open-minded girl, and she’s not a stingy person. Father and Mother eat well, dress well, and are served well with her.”
Uncle Yao quickly put on his clothes.
Then, he washed his face, “If Heng Yi and Ah-Qiao have such thoughts, I will persuade Father and Mother to go.”
“Will Father and Mother agree?” Aunt Yao quickly said.
“Why not? Look at how Father and Mother looked when they came back. It’s only been a few months, and look what have they become?”
“Even if we are their children, we don’t have the ability to provide them. How can we stop our parents from enjoying themselves?”
When Uncle Yao came out, Heng Yi was peeling oranges to eat.
It was the eldest grandson of his youngest uncle’s family who handed it to him.
It tasted sweet yet sweet. Not bad.
“Heng Yi, come and sit.”
“Alright.”
Heng Yi walked to his youngest uncle and sat down.
He immediately stated his intentions, “All-Qiao and 1 wanted to borrow Grandpa and Grandma to go to the county town and bring them to Chenzhou.” “Originally, I thought that Grandpa and Grandma didn’t want to go either, so I didn’t force them. But when 1 saw Grandpa earlier… He was much more haggard than when he was in the county town. Uncle Yao, I’m not close to anyone, and my grandparents treat me well. I also want to have an elder by my side to make up for it.”
“I understand that Grandpa and Grandma are worried, but if Grandpa and Grandma continue to be like this, it will affect their longevity.”
Uncle Yao knew this too.
He hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’ll persuade them.”
“I will also work hard to make money.”
Heng Yi nodded, thought for a while, and then said, “We’re younger than they are, so we should take good care of them. If they don’t want to go, I’ll get a servant or a maid to serve them here.”
“Ah-Qiao suggested this before, but Grandma rejected it.”
When his uncle came back from the fields, Grandma also slowly walked over from the neighbor’s house.
She was just helping out with something, so she walked very slowly.
She was very happy to see Heng Yi.
“Heng Yi, you’re here. Did Ah-Qiao and the newborn come for a visit?”
Speaking of which, she had yet to meet Ah-Yao.
Heng Yi stepped forward to support her, “He didn’t come. Ah-Qiao asked me to pick you and Grandpa up to stay in the county for a few days.”
Grandma paused.
“I’ll just stay for a few days. I won’t go to Chenzhou with you.”
Heng Yi nodded, “Yes, just a few days. You won’t have to go to Chenzhou.”
Grandma asked the eldest aunt to pack two sets of clothes for her and Grandpa.
Then, they got into Heng Yi’s carriage and went to the county town.
“Heng Yi, is Ah-Qiao still mad at Ah-Xiang?”
“Yes.” Heng Yi replied.
“…” Grandma hesitated for a moment before saying, “Is Ah-Xiang feeling better?”
“I don’t know. If Ah-Qiao doesn’t say anything about this, it’s not good for me to ask.”
“Then will Ah-Qiao’s parents come back to Xishan?” Grandma asked again.
“Father-in-law and Mother-in-law rarely come to visit, but Ah-Qiao will arrange the food for them. We’ll give you money and expenses. Don’t worry, Grandma. Ah-Qiao isn’t ruthless. She’s just…”
Heng Yi thought for a moment and said, “She doesn’t care about Father-in-law and Mother-in-law being biased. If Father-in-law and Mother-in-law had something good, she wouldn’t mind them giving it to whoever they wanted. What she cared about was that Han Xiang had clearly done something wrong, but Father-in-law and Mother-in-law did not teach or reprimand her. Instead, they wanted Ah-Qiao to understand and forgive her, which is ridiculous..”
