Chapter 407: Letting Go

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Han Qiao was quite moved by her son’s actions.

Although Ah-Yao had some bad habits, it was undeniable that he was a good

boy at heart. He was filial, sensible, and caring.

Her Ah-Yao was still a child. Maybe she was asking too much.

Maybe she was being too harsh.

She kissed Ah-Yao’s head, “Ah-Yao, eat.

“Okay, okay.”

Ah-Yao nodded vigorously. 𝑓𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝑚

He ate in small bites, and a look of rare relish appeared on his face.

“Mother.”

“Yes?”

“Go home.”

Ah-Yao still wanted to go home and play with his brothers and sisters.

When Han Qiao brought Ah-Yao home, Sun Xiu and Sun Yi hurried to meet

them.

“Mother.”

Sun Xiu took Ah-Yao.

Ah-Yao immediately kissed her on the cheek.

Sun Yi immediately leaned over, “How about my kiss, Ah-Yao?”

Ah-Yao also kissed Sun Yi on the cheek.

They entered the hall together. Ah-Yao wanted to play with Sun Ke and He

Cheng even more.

“Sister Ke, Brother Cheng’er,” Ah-Yao said.

He remembered the way to the courtyard where the three sisters lived.

Han Qiao called a servant girl to take him there.

Sun Xiu and Sun Yi were left to talk to Han Qiao, “How are you doing in

Liangzhou?” Han Qiao asked.

“Everything is fine,” Sun Xiu hurriedly said, “I just received a few letters from our hometown. They said Grandmother is sick…

Sun Xiu didn’t think that their mother would truly sever her ties with the Han

family.

As she said this, she looked at Han Qiao.

Her mother’s face didn’t change. Not a hint of concern or care was reflected in

her eyes.

It made her a little apprehensive.

“Ah-Xiu, Ah-Yi, it’s not that I don’t care. It’s just that parents and children need mutual care and love. Just like how I treat you. If I don’t give you food every day, beat you from time to time, and order you to do things that you don’t like, will you respect or admire me?”

Han Qiao sighed, “Nobody could,”

“imagine, if I gave everything in this house to just one child. I blame you regardless if you were right or wrong, and if I always complained about not receiving enough from you or that you are not doing much for me, how would that make you feel?”

“Everyone saw how I treated your grandparents and how I helped the Han family, but how did they treat me? You both saw it too.”

“I am not a petty person. If they treat me well, I will naturally be filial, concerned, and miss them. Like how I treat your great-grandparents. I got someone to deliver things to them, and sent servants to serve them three meals a day because I remember the silver taels they gave me during my most

difficult time.”

“Ah-Xiu, Ah-Yi, you don’t need to coax me. If you want to get close to them, I won’t oppose you, and I won’t be angry with you because of it. People have emotions and desires. If you really want to be ruthless, you will have to be

shameless.”

Sun Xiu heaved a sigh of relief, “I went to see them with Ah-Yi and Ah-Ke.”

At that time, Grandma had pulled her to cry in front of her, sobbing bitterly about her mistakes.

She told them she felt sorry for their mother…

She felt a little sad at the time, but after she left the house. Ah-Yi spat and told her that she regretted it. Their grandmother just wanted them to bring Han Xiao and Han Sa to Sanzhou Town to suck their mother’s money knowing that their parents were rich now.

Su Xiu’s initial soft-heartedness disappeared in an instant.

If they all sided with their grandma, who would side with their mother?

Besides, Grandma may not be really sick.

“Mother, I understand.”

Han Qiao called the two children to her side and patted their heads lightly, “I’ve been too busy these days. I hadn’t had the chance to take a good look at you.”

“I’ve let you down.”

“Mother.” Sun Xiu and Sun Yiqi called out to refute.

“Ah-Yi and I understand and support all of Mother’s decisions. We’ve also learned to be wise and know how difficult it is for Mother and Father.”

There was no such thing as having the best of both worlds.

How could you make money while staying at home? Where would you get power and status by doing nothing?

After their parents settled down, they were able to bring them to their side. Moreover, they were not cold or hungry. They were served by the maids and servants in the manor. They ate, drank, and wore fine clothes. They were not inferior to those other young ladies from big families.

Just hiring a few masters costs them a lot of money. They thought back to the time when they couldn’t even earn a hundred copper coins a month. Now, they could pay ten taels a month for the masters to train them, and they even paid for their master’s food, clothing, and accommodations.

How could Sun Xiu dare to feel dissatisfied? It would’ve been too late to feel grateful now.

Not to mention complaining about how Mother did not have time to accompany her.

Sun Yi also nodded.

Han Qiao laughed out loud, “I’m glad that you think so.

She and these children had been through a lot and developed a deep bond with them.

She also thought about teaching them well. Even if nobody praised them, at the very least, if something were to happen to them, no matter when, no matter the problems they would face, they could face it calmly and live a good life on their own.

“Since you’re here, I’ll leave the matters at home to you two and Mi’er. I must trouble you all further, it’s been hard on you.”

Although those who were bought could earn money by working, and those who joined the army were also rich, giving them some things was her intention as a guide.

Good fabrics, sugar, salt, rice, flour, and pork were delivered to each household, and to do so, they would need some time to prepare.

Han Qiao thought of letting Li Mi, Sun Xiu, and Sun Yi send them off together. While they cultivate their interpersonal relationships, it would also build their reputation and prestige in town.

“Go and invite the Eldest Young Lady over.”

When Li Mi arrived, her face was a little pale.

“What’S wrong? Did you not sleep well last night?” Han Qiao quickly asked.

Sun Xiu and Sun Yi also looked at Li Mi with concern.

“It’s my period.”

It had only come in the morning. Perhaps it was because of the bumpy road that her stomach hurt a little.

“Should we let the doctor check on you?” Han Qiao asked.

Li Mi shook her head.

“Let Doctor Miao take a look. We can’t neglect girls’ bodies. Also, don’t eat cold food. Eat more nourishing food.”

Han Qiao turned to Sun Xiu and Sun Yi. These two children had exhausted their bodies for so long, “You two too, eat less cold food. You could eat a few mouthfuls, but don’t be greedy, otherwise, you’ll still be the one suffering.”

Han Qiao hoped that the girls would take good care of their health.

The three girls smiled and nodded obediently.

Han Qiao talked to them about delivering things, “Go and deliver these things.” Before Sun Xiu and Sun Yi could react, Li Mi instantly understood Han Qiao’s good intentions. novelbuddy. com

“Thankyou, Mother.”

Han Qiao talked to Li Mi about being in charge of the house again and asked Sun Xiu and Sun Yi to learn from Li Mi.

Li Mi was the princess of the royal family. She had been taught since she was young. No matter how much money they spent, she could not hire an older woman who could teach them about household matters.

Sun Xiu and Sun Yi were quite knowledgeable. They had indeed learned a lot from following Li Mi.

“Ahahaha, Big Yellow! Come and chase me!”

Behind He Cheng’s laughter was Ah-Yao’s scream, and Big Yellow’s bark. They could also hear Sun Ke giggling faintly behind them.

Han Qiao heard the children’s laughter. It was innocent, cheerful, and hearty. It also made her laugh.

Li Mi, Sun Xiu, and Sun Yi also laughed and craned their necks to look at what was going on outside.

“Mother! Mother!”

“Sister-in-law…!”

“Elder Sister!”

“Woof, woof, woof!…”

Looking at the three little guys who ran in with Big Yellow, Han Qiao patted their heads, one after another.

Big Yellow also begged Han Qiao for some pets. It rubbed its head against Han Qiao and fell to the ground, exposing its belly for her to scratch. Its cute behavior made everyone laugh..
