Chapter 54: Han Xiang Came Looking for a Scolding

His Lord Heng indeed had good taste.
Han Qiao wasn’t unaccustomed to losing Heng Yi.
She cleaned up his room carefully.
Before it got dark, she would go to the chicken coop and see if there were any eggs.
There were more than ten hens at home, and she could pick up more than ten eggs every day.
She didn’t plan to sell them and kept them for herself.
The weather in August was hot, and the eggs were not put out for a long time.
Han Qiao wanted to steam the eggs for the children tomorrow morning.
She just didn’t expect Han Xiang to bring her two sons over.
“I heard from Mother that you guys are having chicken noodle soup tonight?” Han Xiangzhi asked.
“I’ve already eaten.” Han Qiao said softly.
He watched Han Xiang’s two sons play crazily in the courtyard.
“You’re eating so early? Is there any left? Our mother hasn’t eaten yet. Cook some for me.”
“There’s nothing left. There are so many of us. There’s only one chicken. How can there be anything left?” Han Qiao glanced at Han Xiang and continued her work.
The children took turns to bathe.
The Han family’s children were all capable. They could wash themselves with some hot water.
Then, Sun Xiu, Sun Yi, and Han Yuanyuan helped wash and dry the clothes.

Han Xiang was a little annoyed.
“Then bring something good for the two children to eat. They’re your biological nephews!”
“Han Xiang!” Han Qiao said in a deep voice.
“What?”
“Were you the one who threw melon seeds and peanut shells under my bed that day?” When Han Qiao asked this question, she stared at Han Xiang.
Han Xiang was obviously flustered. Her eyelids twitched, but she refused to admit it. “What nonsense are you talking about? How could it be me?”
“You know very well whether it’s you or not, and I won’t get entangled with you. But Han Xiang, remember, if you respect me as a sister, I’ll acknowledge you as a sister. If I have evidence, I will definitely teach you a lesson.”
“How dare you!” Han Xiang shouted angrily.
She never dreamed that Han Qiao would speak to her so unyieldingly.
Han Qiao ignored her.
He sat there silently and ignored her.
Han Xiang liked to compete with her sister. Gentle and diligent girls were always liked by their families. They were always scolded for being lazy and fussy.
In addition, when Sun Yiming came to the house to propose marriage, Han Xiang had also taken a fancy to Sun Yiming, and she had secretly made a fuss about it for a long time.
Han Qiao married into the Sun family and could not give birth to a son. Her life became worse and worse. Han Xiang married into the Zhou family and gave birth to two sons. Her life was smooth.
She looked down on Han Qiao even more.
When Han Qiao and Li returned to West Mountain Village, she was so happy that she couldn’t sleep for several nights.
Han Qiao really didn’t care about such a vile person.
Han Qiao completely ignored Han Xiang, who was so angry that she was about to explode.
Han Xiang said resentfully, “do you think you can turn the tables just because you married a hunter?”
“You’re a woman who has three daughters…”
“What does it have to do with you?” Han Qiao asked in a low voice.
She threw the scissors into the sunning circle and slowly stood up.
“What does my life have to do with you? You don’t have to show off your superiority in front of me. Your superiority is nothing to me.”
“Let’s go back quickly, or we won’t have dinner later.”
Han Xiang said.
She wished she could reach out and scratch Han Qiao’s face.
Seeing that her nieces were all watching, it would be difficult to explain to her parents if she made a move.
More importantly, she was afraid of Han Qiao.
“I can’t be bothered with you.”
She reached out and pulled her two sons away.
“I’m not leaving, I’m not leaving. I want to eat chicken noodle soup at aunt’s place.”
The big ones made a fuss, and the small ones cried.
They just refused to leave.
“Eat, eat, eat! You’re a pig!”
She pulled her son out of the courtyard, and the two children were still crying loudly.
Han Xiang raised her hand and slapped their butts a few times. The two children cried even more sadly.
Their cries shook the sky, making people feel irritated.
Han Qiao held back and didn’t go out to take a look, nor did she go out to coax them.
She didn’t even feel sorry for her own son, so how could she expect others to feel sorry for them? What are you thinking?
Han Xiang dragged her two sons and walked toward the Han family angrily.
On the way, she met her aunt and uncle who asked why she was upset. “Why else? My sister is about to marry into a high family, so she doesn’t like her poor sister and chased us out.”

Han Xiang shouted and dragged the child away.
Her aunt and uncle quickly came to ask Han Qiao.
“How is this possible? She said she wanted to eat chicken soup noodles, but Heng Yi went to town, so we had it early. There’s also White Tea, so how could there be any left?”
“She was being sarcastic over there, so I just rebuked her. She was so angry that she hit the child to vent her anger.”
When the uncles and aunts heard this, they didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“This child has been comparing herself to you since she was young. Now that you’re married to Heng Yi, if Heng Yi gives you a generous betrothal gift tomorrow, she’ll probably explode in anger…”
“She’s already a mother. She knows what to do and what not to do. If she causes trouble for me, I won’t let her off easily!” Han Qiao said gently.
She did not speak harshly.
However, her casual tone stunned her aunt and aunt.
They then asked Han Qiao how she planned to sell the purses. What was her plan after she married Heng Yi? Han Qiao mumbled a few words. Her aunt and aunt also wanted to go home to make dinner, so they didn’t stay long.
Han Xiang returned to the Han family.
The two children were still crying. Mrs. Han immediately went forward to coax them and promised to give them candy. Only then did the two children stop crying.
After Han Yuanshi had coaxed her two grandsons, she asked Han Xiang, “What happened?”
“Han Qiao is amazing. Now that she has climbed up a high branch, she doesn’t like her poor sister anymore.”
“Han Xiang!” Han Yuanshi shouted.
“I gave birth to you and raised you for more than ten years. How can I not know what you’re thinking? It’s not easy for your sister to divorce to come back. Instead of helping her, you’re still mocking her.”
“As her sister, can’t you hope for her to be better?”
Han Xiang’s eyes turned red instantly. “Mother, you always help her.”
“How am I helping her? I’m helping reason and not my family. I’ve been pregnant for ten months, so I can’t be biased towards anyone. If you continue to pester me like this, don’t blame me for dealing with you.”

Han Xiang was stunned for a moment before she retorted, “I’m already married.”
“Even if you get married, I will still beat you up.” Hanyuanshi said angrily.
He pulled her into the house to educate her.
Her family was preparing for Heng Yi’s marriage proposal tomorrow, so she didn’t have time to deal with Han Xiang.
Eldest Sister-in-law Han and Second Sister-in-law Han were muttering in the kitchen, both of them pouting and shaking their heads.
When they married into the family, Han Qiao and Han Xiang were still unmarried.
Back then, there was a gentle and easy-going sister-in-law who didn’t make things difficult for others and her sister-in-law who was always fussing over every detail, everyone liked the former.
Han Qiao, who had just returned, had been eating at home for almost twenty days. The two sisters-in-law had nothing to say. But what if it was Han Xiang instead?
No matter how much you helped Han Xiang, she would feel that it was only right. She didn’t know how to be grateful at all.
She never had anything good to say.
However, she was not stupid. She was not like this in the Zhou family. It was just that they thought that her surname was Han and that if she did something wrong, the family would tolerate her and have nothing to fear.
When Heng Yi arrived at Ninghe Town, he first went to Matchmaker Wang’s house to check that everything was ready. He then felt relieved.
“Master Heng, where are you staying tonight?” White Tea asked..
