Chapter 168: That Moment of Grievance
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Her originally muddled brain gradually became sober as the cold wind blew.
She walked towards Zhou Anshan in a daze.
“How did it go?” Zhou Anshan asked anxiously.
Han Xiang looked at her husband, “Let’s go home and never come here again.”
She really couldn’t take it anymore.
She had thrown her face onto the ground time and time again. Her dignity was even trampled down by a servant.
No matter how bad she was, she had been spoiled since she was young. She never received this kind of treatment in her entire life.
Han Xiang shuddered.
That’s right, her sister doted on her the most when she was young. Other sisters were dirty from work, but she was the only one who remained clean.
Because her sister would tidy her up and bring her out to play.
She would give her anything delicious.
Han Xiang looked up at Zhou Anshan. Her eyes were red and tears were blurring her gaze, “Zhou Anshan, what do you want? Do you want a lot of money? Or is it authority you’re after?”
“Why don’t you work hard for what you want? Why do 1 have to come here to cause trouble? My sister forgave me at that time. You said that I could get more by making a scene, but what happened in the end?”
“We didn’t get anything. Now, I can’t even walk through her gates. Are you satisfied with this outcome?” Han Xiang’s voice was very soft.
“We were all too greedy. We made a scene for that house, for the sake of getting more. However, we forgot that my sister had already changed. She was no longer the sister who doted on me…”
Perhaps it was because she had never visited the town, never expressed her concern, and never thought of backing her up when she was in trouble…
She even felt smug and thought that Han Qiao deserved it. She was the one who married Sun Yiming.
If it was her…
Han Xiang swallowed her saliva, her expression turning uglier.
Tears suddenly rolled down her cheeks.
How could it be her? She was still a child at that time, but Sun Yiming was already an adult. Her little unwillingness was never because of Sun Yiming, but because of Han Qiao.
Her older sister, who had married that man, could no longer take care of her. She had not only lost her older sister but also the older sister who had treated her sincerely and loved her to the bone when she was young.
“Let’s go home. I’m tired.” After Han Xiang finished speaking, her vision turned black.
Her body went limp and she fainted.
“Ah-Xiang, Ah-Xiang!” Zhou Anshan shouted, and with Han Xiang in his arms, his mind spun as he walked towards the gates of Heng Manor.
He wanted to bet on Han Qiao’s soft-heartedness.
When Dong Lai saw this scene, he quickly put down his chopsticks and went to inform Han Qiao.
Han Qiao had a good appet.i.te today. She could eat more than just vegetables.
When she heard Dong Lai’s report, her expression darkened, “Go tell him that since she’s sick, she should be sent to the clinic. I’m not a doctor. What’s the use of telling me?”
Even until now, he still wanted to use Han Xiang to get her.
He was worse than pigs and dogs.
The other members of the Han family had more or less heard it.
Eldest Brother Han, Second Brother Han, and Han Ming put down their chopsticks and looked at Han Qiao.
“Eldest Brother, Second Brother, Little Brother, you heard it too. Han Xiang fainted on such a cold day. Zhou Anshan didn’t bring her to the clinic but instead wanted to see me at the door. Is he trying to see if I’m soft-hearted?”
“To be honest, Han Xiang has a pig’s brain. She’s been ordered around by Zhou Anshan without realizing it. Until she understands the situation herself, I won’t let her enter my house for the rest of her life.”
Han Qiao’s words were almost like she was going to sever all ties with Han Xiang.
Eldest Brother Han, Second Brother Han, and Han Ming looked at each other.
Han Ming stood up, “Big Brother, Second Brother, I’m going out to take a look.”
He wanted to see how shameless Zhou Anshan is.
“I’ll go with you,” Eldest Brother Han said.
Second Brother Han added, “I’ll go too.”
The three brothers stood up and left.
Han Qiao sat in her seat and curled her lips coldly.
So this was the difference.
That was their beloved little sister.
Now, she was only being used by Zhou Anshan, yet they were so worried about her.
It did nothing to vent her anger.
Back then, Han Qiao was in deep water and suffering in the Sun family. She was beaten up every two or three days. But where did they go?
Were they blind?
Han Qiao wanted to say that this wasn’t her, so she didn’t have to be calculative, but she couldn’t let go of the anger in her heart.
“Ha!”
Heng Yi held Han Qiao’s hand.
Han Qiao smiled at him, indicating that she was fine.
She would leave this place sooner or later.
Help the Han family to get things done.
As for whether they would become dragons or continue to be worms after this, it would all depend on their own efforts.
As for the reward…
She also wanted to earn money from them.
Eldest Sister-in-law Han, Second Sister-in-law Han, and Madam Mu saw Han Qiao’s expression change, and their hearts thumped wildly.
Dong Lai followed them out.
At the gate, Zhou Anshan was still begging the gatekeeper to let them enter the house to avoid the wind. He did not take Han Xiang to the clinic.
Seeing the three Han brothers, Zhou Anshan was first delighted, then panicked.
Eldest Brother Han forcibly took Han Xiang from his hands.
Second Brother Han and Han Ming pressed him down and beat him up without saying a word.
Zhou Anshan cried out and begged for mercy.
However, he was beaten up until he had no strength to fight back.
When Second Brother Han and Han Ming were almost done, they brought Han Xiang to the clinic.
They wanted to take Han Xiang to Heng House, but judging from Han Qiao and Heng Yi’s att.i.tude, they didn’t want to have anything to do with her.
When they arrived at the clinic, Han Xiang’s condition was worse than everyone had imagined.
Zhou Anshan lowered his head and did not dare to make a sound.
The doctor took her pulse, opened the medicine cabinet, and the medicine boy went to brew the medicine. There was no need for the three brothers to interfere.
Han Ming said to Zhou Anshan, “Go back to the Zhou family now and send the two children to the Han family.”
“W-what?” Zhou Anshan exclaimed.
“x.x.xXX!”
Han Ming cursed and slapped Zhou Anshan.
Zhou Anshan kept wailing.
“I know I’m wrong, don’t hit me, don’t hit me!”
“Hurry up and go now. You can’t send the child to the Han family tomorrow. We’ll go to the Zhou family to pick them up ourselves.”
Zhou Anshan doesn’t want to go to the place where he was going to be killed.
He felt that this matter had exceeded all his expectations.
However, when he saw Han Ming’s fierce gaze, he was so scared that he shrank back. He could only grit his teeth and leave to return to the Zhou family.
The three Han brothers looked at the unconscious Han Xiang on the bed. They were anxious, but they gradually calmed down.
If they brought her back to the Han family, what would they do in the future?
It was impossible to take care of her for a lifetime, but with Zhou Anshan’s personality, a beating was a light punishment.
Meanwhile, back in the Heng family, Han Qiao’s anger only lasted for a moment, and she soon felt relieved. She ate and drank as she should, and she invited everyone to eat and drink.
The excitement continued as if Han Xiang’s incident had never happened.
Everyone in the Han Family understood that the feud between Han Qiao and Han Xiang was more serious than they had imagined.
After dinner, everyone moved to the warm dining room.
Tea, snacks, and melon seeds had already been served on the table. Everyone sat next to each other.
Han Qiao told them about her plans for the new year.
“I have a lot of things to collect. Seasonal fresh vegetables, wild fruits, and wild vegetables. I’ll collect anything that can be eaten. Just a little. You have to meticulously clean them up, and make sure they look good enough to sell. So you need to get rid of the dirt and weeds.”
Han Qiao spoke frankly and confidently. She didn’t wait for the three Han brothers just because they weren’t around, or rather, she didn’t hold back.
Her two sisters-in-law were here. They would tell them when their husbands return..
