Everyone was waiting for Han Qiaoâs response.
Han Qiao was very calm.
âItâs nor as simple as you think/1 she began calmly. âMy opinion and dislike towards you cannot be forgiven by you kneeling down. Han Xiang, I donât like your greed, your schemes, your reckless behavior, your arrogant words, and your viciousness. I donât like everyone in this family pleading for you. You were the one in the wrong, bur why does everyone want me to forgive you?â
âJust because youâre weak now?â
Han Qiao was also angry.
Some things were experienced by the original owner, but some things were experienced by her.
She was a vengeful person.
Of course, she would not indulge Han Xiang, who had no feelings for her at all.
âItâs nor that 1 didnât give you a chance. I did, but you didnât rake it seriously.â
âEveryone is pleading for you. Do they know what you did?â Han Qiao questioned.
No one really knew what was going on. They only knew that the two sisters had a conflict.
âThat day, Han Xiang and Zhou Anshan came to my house and asked to borrow five hundred taels of silver. 1 didnât agree, so she fell our on the spot and humiliated me. At that time, Grandfather and Aunty were still ar home, so she stayed behind shamelessly. That night, she went to the main courtyard again and threatened me to lend her money. I didnât agree. She cursed that I wouldnât be able to give birth to a son and that my family property would benefit others in the future.â
âHeng Yi heard that. That was the first time he lost his temper at home. He sold all the maids and servants who didnât work, and forbade her and Zhou Anshan from entering the Heng Manor again.â
âThatâs why Iâm very puzzled. Why canât you comfort me instead of accusing her of being insensible and not knowing how to be grateful? Donât excuse her sharp tongue by telling me that despite that she has a soft heart. When she says evil things, her heart is as evil as the words she spews.â
âFather and Mother knew that itâs better to persuade me, but you are all biased.â
âGrandpa and Grandma, youâre the ones who want your children and grandchildren to be harmonious.â
âBut who has thought of me? Iâm also human. I can feel wronged and sad. Iâm also made of flesh and blood. Why should 1 make myself suffer and give in to her?1
â
After Han Qiao finished speaking, she felt her chest tighten.
She said to Han Chi, âAh-Chi, go and call your siblings over. Weâll leave now.â
She didnât want to ear anymore, and her family didnât want to stay either.
âAh-Qiao,â
The Han family came to persuade Han Qiao to calm down and not anger herself.
âIâm not angry. I definitely wonât let myself suffer because of such a person. You all are the same. In the future, when you come to the county town, donât mention Han Xiang.â
They would never reconcile.
She would rather stay away from Han Xiang.
Han Xiang thought that she would be forgiven if she knelt down today. She must be dreaming.
Han Qiao insisted on leaving, and she had a child in her stomach. It was Heng Yiâs first child, and now Heng Yi was the chief constable of the county government, even though he hadnât received the official document yet.
But now, the government office people called him chief constable, and it was confirmed that he would treat them to a meal at Qiaoyi Fast Food Restaurant on the ninth day of the month.
âHan Xiang, donât come on rhe ninth day either. I wonât welcome you, and Heng Yi wonât welcome you either.â
Han Qiaoâs words were also quite serious.
She and Heng Yi would never forgive Han Xiang.
Han Xiang was speechless.
Even now, she still could not believe that Han Qiao would not forgive her.
She was still very confident in her plans earlier that morning. As long as she knelt down and admitted her mistake, with so many people in the family persuading her, Han Qiao would definitely forgive her.
But it did not happen.
Han Qiao insisted on leaving, and even when rhe sisters-in-law Han tried to persuade her, nothing changed her mind.
She stopped in her tracks and said, âSister-in-law, my parents, and brothers have never put so much effort into me. Letâs nor talk about my days in rhe Sun family. If 1 hadnât hardened myself and insisted on divorcing Sun Yiming, who would have cared about me in this life?â
âIt was clearly Han Xiangâs fault, but they didnât blame her. They even tried to persuade me to reconcile with her. I told my father and three brothers some things very clearly last time. Letâs not talk about Han Xiang. Our family is very close. If they want to be biased towards her, then so be it.â
âYou should pick the soft persimmons to pinch. You shouldnât pick on those who are sentimental to bully.â
âTheyâre biased towards Han Xiang, but have they ever thought about me?â
âSince they donât think of me, I wonât think of them either.â
After Han Qiao finished speaking, she got into the carriage and left without looking back.
Eldest Sister-in-law Han, Second Sister-in-law Han, and Madam Mu stood where they were.
Their faces were filled with shame.
The other sisters-in-law fell silent.
They didnât expect Han Qiao to be so angry.
Of course, it was also possible that Han Xiangâs words that she couldnât give birth to a son for Heng Yi were just to annoy Han Qiao.
Anyone would be angry.
Han Qiao brought back a lot of things.
Han Qiao had returned to her motherâs house after they had separated. Although she had not visited her mother often, she had sent gifts over the holidays.
Among the married daughters of the Han family, she was the most sentimental.
In the courtyard, Han Xiang was about to bang her head against the wall until her aunts and Han Yuan pulled her back.
Uncle and Father Han stood in the hall. Father Han shouted, âDonât pull her, let her be.â
Everyone was shocked.
Only Uncle Yao sighed and called Aunt Yao to leave first.
Originally, Han Qiao had returned today, so they should have a happy chat.
These people still didnât understand. After Han Qiao invited her brothers and sisters to the county town on the sixth day of the lunar new year, she didnât invite anyone else.
They rarely encountered bamboo shoots and firewood.
Everyone had their own things to do. She was busy with her fast food restaurant, busy with her other restaurant, and was pregnant.
The child she was carrying was Heng Yiâs first child, no matter if it was a boy or a girl. It was self-evident how much Han Qiao and Heng Yi valued each other. Since Han Qiao could come back, her family should let her come and go happily.
If she went back like this, Heng Yi, who loved Han Qiao so much that he couldnât bear to see her suffer any grievances⦠He might not say it, but he would feel a knot in his heart.
Last time, he sold the servant girls and old women out of anger. This timeâ¦
He would be confused.
Muddle-headed.
The most uncomfortable people in this whole ordeal were Grandma and Grandpa.
After staying at Han Qiaoâs house for half a year, Han Qiao had nothing to say to them.
Clothing, food, accommodation, and transportation were all pleasant surprises.
Actually, they had just returned not long ago, so both Grandfather and Grandmother were not used to not having any of this.
Han Qiao asked them to bring the servants for their visit.
But they refused.
Now, they felt a little regretful.
They had to make their own food and prepare their own clothes. The taste of the tea was not how they were used to, and the hall was a little cold. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Grandpa sighed.
Grandma glanced at him, âI told you not to come back, but you insisted on coming back. Why are you sighing now?â
Especially at a time like this.
Han Qiao was in a fit of anger, so she probably wouldnât be able to bring them back to the county town anytime soon.
Grandpa was stunned by the rebuttal.
A few days ago, he had been making a fuss about wanting to return to Xishan Village, but his old wife did not agree, so the two of them quarreled.
His wife said that he was not allowed to bring servants or food.
In fact, Grandpa regretted it when he returned to Xishan Village.
His sons and daughters-in-law were still very enthusiastic, but rhe two of them were used to eating big fish and meat, so they were unused to eating simple food.
He was used to living in a clean courtyard.
Not that the courtyard in Xishan Village was dirty.
Compared to other courtyards, it was already considered clean.
âDo you think Ah-Qiao is angry with us?â
âHow can she not be angry? I slapped you, but you still have to hand over the other half of your face for me to slap. Arenât you angry?â Grandma asked.
Grandpa choked and couldnât say a word..
