Chapter 10: Evening Discussion on Separation
Among the people from the second house, Han Xigu hated Han Huaijin the most, not Chen.
Han Xigu didn't understand. He was obviously the most talented student in the Han family, but why did his grandfather only have eyes for the second wife and her son and not for him at all?
What made Han Xigu most indignant was that Han Huaijin was very scheming despite his young age and was best at pretending to be a good person.
Every time Chen withheld their food, he would secretly take some food for his family so that they would not be too hungry but not too hungry either. He would do them some small favors to make his parents willingly work like slaves for the second wife.
He clearly had no confidence in this year's Tongsheng exam, but he pretended to want to take the exam with her next year. Because of this, Chen often gave him the cold shoulder, and even his parents were grateful to Han Huaijin.
Like Han Xigu, Han Beiwang also hates Han Huaijin the most.
They were obviously about the same age, Han Huaijin was even two years younger, but both his grandfather and the villagers only praised Han Huaijin, praising him for his reading, his good upbringing, and his good looks...
People only describe me as clever and naughty.
Even his parents like Han Huaijin very much, and they often ask him, "Can't you learn from Huaijin?" "Look at Huaijin..."
Originally, it should have been a happy thing that Han Qingshan and the others brought back food, but at this moment the courtyard fell into a strange silence.
The door of the inner room creaked, and Han Mingzhu, who was originally sleeping in the room, poked her little head out.
The brothers didn't bother to blame Zhao He and Zhou Taohua. They all rushed over to surround Han Mingzhu. Seeing that Han Mingzhu was still a little pale, she looked more energetic than in the morning, they all smiled with relief.
Han Dongchen carefully picked up his sister and showed her what they brought back.
The other three brothers followed them nervously, fearing that the eldest brother's hand would slip and his sister would fall.
Han Mingzhu smiled happily when she saw the little rabbits and pheasants in the yard.
Han Qingshan felt a little conflicted. He had watched his second brother grow up, and he didn't want to completely cut off all contact with his second brother's family.
"Mingzhu, do you want to keep the things your second uncle sent?"
Han Mingzhu is just a child under five years old. She likes fragrant white rice, soft white flour buns, and her brother Huaijin and sister Huaiyu.
She touched the silver bell on her wrist. It was brought back by her second uncle from the county town. He bought two, one for Han Huaixi and one for herself.
After thinking about it, Han Mingzhu nodded and said, "I like the things given by my second uncle's family."
Listening to Han Mingzhu's soft baby voice, Han Qingshan and his two sons felt sad in their hearts. They blamed themselves for not being able to give their daughter/sister a better life.
In the future they must work hard to make Mingzhu live a good life.
After Han Mingzhu said this, no one mentioned returning the things anymore and just waited for Han Qingyun to come home.
Zhou Taohua looked at Han Dongchen who had been holding Han Mingzhu carefully, then looked down at Han Jiali who was holding his arms outstretched, wanting his father to hold him, and a trace of barely perceptible bitterness flashed in her eyes.
When Han Qingyun returned home, it was already late.
He took out the white jade brush washer he bought for Han Huaijin and the silver lock he bought for Han Huaiyu, and also took out the new pastries from Linshuilou, and asked the two children to eat them after dinner. He also reminded them not to eat too much and be careful of indigestion.
Looking at the joy in the two children's eyes, Han Qingyun couldn't help but smile.
In his previous life, he only had one child, Han Xiaoxi. Han Xiaoxi was a little naughty and often gave him a headache.
He had never been able to imagine what it felt like to be a father to four children before, but perhaps it was because of his original body's feelings that made Han Qingyun want to be nice to these children.
Although there is no way to put them in the same position as Xiaoxi for the time being, he will try his best to treat them equally. Whatever Xiaoxi has, the other three children will also have.
Lu Yanyan briefly told Han Qingyun what happened during the day.
Because Han Qingshan and the others did not return the things that Han Huaijin and the others had sent, Lu Yanyan and Han Qingyun felt a little relieved. They thought that their relationship with the first wife should be able to be eased.
Han Huaixi was eating the glutinous rice cake happily. Chen looked at Han Huaixi who looked like a little hamster and couldn't help pinching her little face.
Chen felt a little distressed. The little girl had always been picky about food. Neither she nor Lu Yanyan was good at cooking. It was only because Han Nuo practiced his cooking skills by watching short videos every day that he was able to raise Xiaoxi to be plump and white.
But the quality of food and the variety of seasonings here are far inferior to those in her previous life. Naturally, the taste of the food cannot be compared with before. Her Xiaoxi will have to suffer in the future.
After dinner, Han Qingyun walked to Han Qingshan's house under the bright moonlight.
Hearing the knock on the door, Han Qingshan quickly stood up and looked at his wife and children beside him. He took a deep breath and asked Han Dongchen to open the door.
Looking at Han Qingyun, who looked more and more handsome and elegant under the moonlight, Han Qingshan couldn't tell what he felt.
Han Qingshan had envied, been jealous of, and loved this younger brother who was much younger than him, but he had never hated him.
He even expressed gratitude to Han Qingyun for bringing hope to his father when his father was full of disappointment in him.
Han Qingyun called out "Brother and Sister-in-law", then placed the pastries he brought on the worn wooden table and gently touched Han Jiali's little face who had been looking at him.
He took out a piece of melt-in-your-mouth candy from his sleeve and stuffed it into Han Jiali's mouth. Han Qingyun then gently wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth without leaving any trace.
Zhou Taohua felt a little embarrassed. She nodded to Han Qingyun and then carried Han Jiali into the room.
Although she was curious about how her second uncle would compensate her family, she had no say in this family, so it didn't matter whether she stayed here or not.
Han Qingyun took out another silver lock and wanted to put it on Han Mingzhu, but was pushed away by Han Beiwang.
"Han Xiucai, if you have something to say, please speak up. Mingzhu's jewelry will be taken care of by her brothers from now on. If you wear Han Xiucai's bracelet, I'm afraid Han Huaixi will come and beat Mingzhu again."
Han Qingyun glanced at Han Beiwang indifferently. He really had no good impression of this young man who threw Han Huaixi into the water.
Although Lu Yanyan didn't say it explicitly, they had been married for many years, and Yanyan's expression had already told him that Han Huaixi in the original book should not have survived, so the young man in front of him was the murderer.
"Xiaoxi just woke up too. Could it be that Xiaoxi is arguing with Mingzhu again, and you're going to throw her into the water?"
Han Beiwang had never seen Han Qingyun speak so harshly. He wanted to retort, but in the end he felt guilty and a little scared.
If something really happened to Han Huaixi, not only the person in front of him, but even the Lu family would not let him go.
Han Nanxing picked up Han Mingzhu and handed her to his mother, then asked Han Qingyun, "What Huaijin said to my mother today, was it Second Uncle's intention? What is Second Uncle's plan?"
Han Qingyun didn't say anything, just looked at Han Qingshan who was standing there at a loss. After meeting his brother's inquiring gaze, Han Qingshan quickly lowered his head without saying a word.
Han Qingyun suppressed the sigh in his heart. This elder brother was still as indecisive as ever.
"Forty mu of our land can be given to my eldest brother. Tomorrow we'll have the village chief re-sign the division documents, and you can harvest the wheat on the forty mu. My father's illness cost a lot of money, and we don't have much money left, so I'll give you thirty taels. I'll also give you one hundred kilograms of rice, fifty kilograms of flour, and our big yellow ox. What do you think?"
Han Qingyun believed that he was sincere. When Han Hongyuan passed away, there was no savings left in the family except for Lu Yanyan's dowry. This money was earned by the original owner in recent years. With this division, the eldest wife still got the better deal.
When Han Qingshan and Zhao He heard Han Qingyun's words, their faces quickly filled with joy. This was much better than they had imagined.
Han Xigu sneered.
"There are nine people in my family, and seven in my second uncle's. My second brother is also old enough to get married, so my family will soon have an additional member. Isn't it unfair for my second uncle to split it in half? Besides, does my second uncle only have 60 taels of silver? The annual rent for my second uncle's shop in town alone must be more than 60 taels, right?"
