BXBX NOVEL Chapter 72 - 72: Will Be Scolded 1
Old Third Hu scratched his head. “You’ll have to learn from your Heng family first. You’ll have to be a senior and famous person to suppress your unreasonable parents.”
“The patriarch?” Heng Yi asked.
Third Brother Hu looked at Heng Yi.
If you can invite your Heng clan leader over, that would be your ability. Not to mention Ninghe Town, even Puyi County would be the most respectable!”
II
The Heng clan leader was someone who had studied and obtained an official rank. After he resigned, he became the clan leader of the Heng clan.
This clan leader didn’t really care about anything, but he had a lot of authority in the Heng clan.
Heng Yi didn’t even know where the Heng clan leader lived.
He didn’t know such a person either.
“Where does Patriarch Heng live?” Heng Yi asked.
Hehe, I thought you knew!” Old Third Hu teased and told Heng Yi about the clan leader in detail.
II
All he knew were rumors.
He did not know if it was true or false.
However, Heng Yi, the iron fool, believed it and rode out to find the Heng clan leader.
When he arrived, he looked at the high wall of the courtyard door and did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. He went up and knocked on the door.
“Who are you looking for?” The gatekeeper’s eyes were cold and his face was dark.
“I’m looking for the Clan Leader.”
“Why are you looking for Old Master?”
“I’ll ask him to host my wedding.”
The gatekeeper looked at Heng Yi and sized him up.
“My master never hosts a wedding. Please go back and don’t disturb him.” The gatekeeper closed the door.
Heng Yi pressed his hand on the door.
The gatekeeper tried a few times but failed to close the door.
He didn’t understand where this iron fool came from, and his strength was shocking.
Let me see the Patriarch. If the Patriarch rejects me personally, I will leave immediately.”
II
“You…”
The gatekeeper took a deep breath. “Wait outside first. I’ll pass on a message for you.”
When Heng Congshan learned that someone had asked him to host the wedding, he laughed in surprise. “Which silly person is it?”
Ill
This servant doesn’t know him.”
Countless people came to Heng Congshan every year, but none of them dared to ask him to host the wedding.
He was very surprised to see one today.
“Wait for me to meet this silly fool!”
Heng Congshan smiled when he saw Heng Yi.
Heng Yi didn’t know him, but he did.
Three years ago, at the Feng family’s banquet, Old Master Feng said that the tiger hunter was a member of the Heng family. He even praised Heng Yi a few times and lamented that he didn’t join the army. If he did, he would be a fierce general.
At that time, he had taken a look from afar.
He was indeed tall and mighty, but unfortunately, he was dull and his brute strength was not flexible.
“Are you looking for me?”
Heng Yi looked at the man in front of him. He looked elegant and smart.
He nodded.
“Why?” the Heng mountains ask.
IIJ II
Heng Yi looked at Heng Congshan and thought for a moment before saying, “I think it’ll be more honorable for Sister Qiao to marry me. No one will dare to bully her in the future.”
“And then?” Heng Cong Shan asked again.
II
II
Heng Yi opened his mouth. “I can’t answer you, but my sister Qiao can.”
Heng Congshan laughed. “Alright, take my words back. If your sister’s answer is satisfactory, I’ll host your wedding!”
II
Alright!”
Heng Yi said goodbye, turned around, and left on his horse.
Heng Congshan laughed. He was indeed a simple-minded person.
He came and left as he pleased. He was too silly.
Heng Yi rode a horse quickly. He had to pass through Ninghe Town on his way back, so he went to Third Brother Hu’s house.
“You really went?”
“Yes, the clan leader asked me why I invited him to preside over the wedding. I answered that he seemed to be dissatisfied.” Heng Yi nodded.
Third Brother Hu gave Heng Yi a thumbs up.
“Then go home and ask your sister Ah Qiao how to answer.”
II
Okay, I’ll go back now!”
Heng Yi left in the morning, and it was almost evening, so he was eager to go home.
They rode fast.
When it was almost dark, Heng Yi saw the smoke rising from the kitchen chimneys and smiled.
In the yard
Sun Ke was watering the vegetables while Sun Xiu and Sun Yi were cooking dinner in the kitchen.
They listened to Han Qiao and cooked more for Heng Yi.
“Sister, will Fifth Uncle Heng come back?” Sun Yi asked.
“I will!”
Sun Xiu cut the meat and stir-fried it in the pot. After refining the oil, he could stir-fry it.
Today, a butcher came to Xishan Village to sell fresh pork. His mother gave them money to buy a few catties of braised pork, as well as pig liver and pig stomach.
He cut a small piece into minced meat and steamed the egg.
Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa liked to eat it.
Heng Yi hadn’t come back yet. Grandpa had been nagging for a long time, mainly because he had ridden his white horse out and hadn’t fed him anything today.
Grandma sat under the eaves and watched Sun Ke water the vegetables.
Han Qiao’s three children were taught very well. Their mother was in her first month of confinement, so no one made a fuss. They worked quietly and did not slack off.
He would do as much as he could.
The atmosphere in this family was very good. Be it adults or children, they were happy all day long and full of hope for the future.
“Phew!” Heng Yi asked the horse to stop.
Grandpa opened the door and went out.
“Aiyo, Big White is back. You must be exhausted after running for a day. Poor thing. Let’s go eat some grass and drink some water.”
Grandpa led the horse to drink water.
As for his grandson-in-law, it had nothing to do with him.
Heng Yi laughed.
Grandma was laughing uncontrollably under the eaves.
Han Qiao stood at the entrance of the central room, her eyes and brows filled with gentleness.
Sun Ke ran toward him. “Fifth Uncle Heng!”
She diligently took the food box from his hand and walked home with difficulty.
She turned to ask Heng Yi, “Uncle Heng, can you open it?”
“I bought you mung bean cakes. Open them and eat!” Heng Yi said softly.
He looked at Han Qiao affectionately.
“Hurry up and get some water to wash up. It’s going to be lunch soon!” Han Qiao urged.
“Yes!
II
Heng Yi greeted Grandma again.
When he passed by Han Qiao, he stopped in his tracks. “Did you wash your hair and shower?”
Han Qiao felt guilty.
She nodded. “It’s hot today. I washed it at noon, and my hair dried quickly.”
II
II
Heng Yi took a deep breath. “If you don’t rest now, your head will hurt!”
I know, I know. Hurry up and wash up. It’s so dirty and smelly!” Han Qiao pushed Heng Yi.
II
Heng Yi raised his sleeve and sniffed. “Is it stinky? I’ll go wash up now!
II
He had been fooled and had forgotten about his advice to Han Qiao.
Han Qiao exhaled lightly.
Grandma smiled and said, “I told you that you wouldn’t believe me if I scolded you!”
“Grandma, I didn’t scold you!” Han Qiao defended herself.
She took the mung bean cake and brought it to her grandmother’s mouth.
Grandma smiled and took it. “You didn’t scold him, so why are you feeling guilty?”
Han Qiao smiled bitterly at the teasing.
Sun Ke had already taken the mung bean cake and ran to give it to her two sisters and great-grandfather.
Grandma sipped the green bean cake.
II
Some things can deceive people, but some things can’t. He’s filled with you!”
Han Qiao nodded.
Grandma smiled and said, “That’s good. It’s getting closer and closer to your wedding…”
It was close, but there were still many days..
