Heng Yi went to Ninghe Town on August 26th.
Indeed, the Heng family didnât do anything. When Heng Yi arrived, the house was empty.
They did not make any preparations.
âWe donât have money at home. What do you want us to do? You need money to buy anything!â Old Woman Heng cried.
Heng Yi said nothing.
Old Woman Heng looked at Heng Yiâs horse. âIs this your horse? Where did it come from? It must be very expensive!â
Heng Yi ignored her.
He turned around and was about to leave when Old Woman Heng pulled him back. âYou havenât said anything yet.â
â..âHeng Yi took a deep breath. âI only wish that I was never picked up by you!â
Then, he walked out.
He got on his horse and left.
Old Woman Heng took a while to recover. âHe, what did he say?â
Panicking was wrong. He stumbled into the house. âOld man, old man, bad news. Old Fifth knows, he knows!â
Old Man Heng frowned. âKnow what?â
âHe knows that heâs not our biological son and that he was picked up. He just said that he wished he could never be picked up by us. He knowsâ¦â
Old Woman Heng turned around anxiously.
âOld man, what should we do? What should we do?â
They could control Heng Yi because of their parents!
âWhatâs the rush? So what if heâs not our biological son? Weâve raised him for so many years. He should support us in our old age no matter where we go!â
Old man Heng was much calmer.
He stood up and said. âIâll go next door!â
âWhat are you doing next door?â Old Woman Heng hurriedly asked.
âYouâre going to find Mother Zhen to discuss how to do things, right? Iâll go with you!â
Old Man Heng looked at Old Woman Heng coldly. âWhy are you following me? Youâre a hindrance!â
Old Man Heng said so, and Old Woman Heng didnât dare to follow.
She looked at Old Man Heng with a wronged expression.
He stood on the spot and stomped his feet.
Old Man Heng walked out of the house and walked to Mother Zhenâs door. He tidied his clothes before knocking on the door.
Heâs here!
Soon, a young woman opened the door. âItâs Master Heng. Come in, Iâll call my lady!â
Mother Zhen was still dressed as a young lady, so the servants called her Miss.
âYes!
Old man Heng nodded.
He followed her into the central room.
Mother Zhen slowly walked out of the house, looking at Old Man Heng listlessly.
âWhatâs going on? Are you sick?â Old man Heng asked with concern.
âHeâs not sick, heâs justâ¦â Mother Zhen glanced at Old Man Heng.
How could she tell an old man about this kind of womanâs matter?
âWhy is Uncle here?â Mother Zhen asked.
âNo. 5 just came back and quarreled with his mother!â
Hearing that, Mother Zhen instantly perked up. âHeng Yi is back?â Where is he?â
âHe went out again.â
Mother Zhenâs heart sank. She pursed her lips and said, âuncle, Heng Yi and the Han family are only a few days away from getting married. The Sun family doesnât dare to do anything nowâ¦â
Mother Zhen took a deep breath. âWhy donât we let them get married first and then let them live in town?â
It would be more convenient to do things if they were close.
Old man Heng nodded.
âWhat you said makes sense. Itâs just that we donât need money for this wedding. Old Fifth has been coaxed to the point of being alienated from us. He doesnât take a single cent from home.â The more Old Man Heng spoke, the sadder he became.
Heng Yi had brought the prey back home earlier, and he could sell them for money every day. It was a small matter for him to drink some wine and buy some meat.
It had been more than ten days since the house had tasted the smell of meat.
However, Mother Zhenâs family had a lot of fish and meat every day, and the children were so greedy that they cried.
Mother Zhen naturally understood what Old Man Heng meant.
He wanted to take money from her.
What a good scheme.
âUncle, tell Heng Yi. He will definitely be willing to pay for the sake of the Han Corporation.â
Old Man Heng nodded repeatedly. âThatâs right!â
âUncle doesnât know yet, right? Heng Yi hunted a tiger last month.â Mother Zhen said casually.
âWhat?â Old man Heng suddenly stood up.
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
All he could think of was silver. A tiger would cost a lot of silver.
It was not as dangerous as hunting a tiger.
Would he be injured?
Old man Heng couldnât sit still anymore. Even if his thoughts were impure, his mind was only filled with silver, silver.
He didnât even tell Mother Zhen and left in a hurry.
He returned home like a madman. âGo and find Old Fifth. If you find him, bring him back even if you have to beg him on your knees.â
âFather?â
âOld man?â
Old man Heng stuttered, âHeng Yi made money. He made a lot of money. He hunted a tiger.â
A tigerâ¦
The Heng family members were stunned for a moment, then came back to their senses and ran out to look for Heng Yi.
Heng Yi went straight to the Heng family mansion to find Uncle Heng.
Uncle Heng was shocked by Heng Yiâs arrival.
âHeng Yi, why are you here?â
âUncle!â Heng Yi shouted.
Come in and sit!
Heng Yi followed his uncle into the hall, and his uncle let him sit.
Soon, his niece brought him some tea. âFifth Uncle, have some tea!
It was said that there were only two kinds of people in a house. Although the Heng family was good at scheming, they were much more reasonable than Old Man Heng.
Old man Heng said that he would give me five hundred copper coins a year, but Uncle Heng had to come to his house and urge him again and again before he could give it.
Heng Yi wasnât the kind of person who would talk about random things, so he directly stated his intention. âUncle, can you help me take care of my marriage?â
âYour father?
âItâs only a few days away from the wedding, but they havenât done anything. I want to buy a small courtyard in town and live there after we get married!â
Big Uncle Heng was really jealous.
Earlier on, the other families were all poor, but the second family had Heng Yi and became rich.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Back then, he had picked Heng Yi up, but he thought that raising a child required food and water. His second daughter-in-law had just given birth to a child, and he had milk, so he brought him over to raise it. When Heng Yi grew older, he called for his mother and refused to come back.
âHeng Yiâ¦â
Uncle Heng swallowed his saliva and said, âactually, have you ever thought, thoughtâ¦â
Big Uncle Heng looked at Heng Yi and saw his calm face.
He didnât complain or feel angry about the Heng Family.
It was as if the Buddhist matter had nothing to do with him.
Uncle Heng suddenly threw caution to the wind. âHave you ever thought that your parents arenât your biological parents?â
âI know!â Heng Yi said softly.
âYou know about it?â Uncle Heng was shocked.
He stood up.
Looking at the calm Heng Yi.
He sat down slowly. âYes, itâs true that your parents are biased, but itâs rare to see people treat you badly like your parents.â
âYou shouldnât be surprised that you thought of this!â
Uncle Heng looked at Heng Yi. âHave you ever thought about finding your parents?â
Heng Yi was silent for a moment, then shook his head.
He wouldnât look for his biological parents.
They had been separated for more than twenty years, so what if they met again?
Who could be sure that it wasnât another Heng Family?
âBut Heng Yi, when I brought you back, you were in good condition, be it swaddling clothes or clothes.â
âPerhaps your biological parents are very rich, very
