Chapter 255: Knowing Your Mistake, You Will Change
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Grandma, we’re too tired. We don’t understand what the Headmaster taught us at all. It’s the same for martial arts. We wake up early in the morning and go to bed very late at night. Can you tell Auntie that we can start from the beginning?”
They all say that they wake up early in the morning by the time they hear the rooster’s crow
They got up to practice martial arts before dawn, but couldn’t keep up with anyone within the residence.
Not to mention Han Chi, they couldn’t even keep up with the other children, and it was already embarrassing for them.
The Headmaster, the head of the family, and the son were very strict with themselves. If they did not do well, they would be reprimanded and punished. “You didn’t tell the Master how you feel?” Han Yuan asked.
“Master said that in his eyes, there is no master or servant in the house. He is paid to do things and teach us well. He doesn’t care about the rest.”
Young master, slave… All the titles were meaningless to him.
He just needed to teach seriously.
“How could a Master be like this?” Han Yuan mumbled and asked, “Why didn’t you tell your aunt?”
“We dare not,” Han Dacheng said softly.
“Then tell Han Chi, he…”
“He’s very busy.”
Han Chi was very busy.
Every fifteen minutes, he would not be idle. Once he was done with this matter, he would go do other things and run back and forth.
Furthermore, Han Chi was going to take the examination next spring, so he would be even busier.
While they were still sleeping, Han Chi had already gotten up and ran several rounds and climbed over the wall dozens of times. By the time they got up, Han Chi was already practicing with his knife.
At night, they were so exhausted that they lay down and did not want to move at all. But by then, Han Chi was still awake, memorizing his books.
He had no time to care about them.
“So, you can’t handle a little suffering?” Han Qiao said coldly.
She appeared behind them with no way to escape.
Han Dacheng and the others were shocked.
Han Yuan was also shocked.
Father Han also stood up.
“It was you who wanted to come, so I kept you. I didn’t ask you to be a waiter and earn that hard money. I wanted to train you well and use you in the future.”
“It’s only been a few days, and you can’t even endure such a little hardship. Then why are you here?” Han Qiao’s voice was cold and deep.
“Master teaches martial arts, and the Headmaster teaches the people to read and write. You must learn both seriously. I won’t let you go easy just because you are my nephews.”
“Ali-Chi has a goal in mind and knows that obstacles are long. Whether the weather is cold or hot, no matter if it’s windy or rainy, unless I ask him to take a break, he never slackens. He doesn’t complain at all, and he doesn’t feel bitter. Because he knew that everything he learned today would be his wealth for the rest of his life. No one could steal his skills from him.”
“I gave you such a good opportunity, but you ran away. The gatekeeper should have stopped you when you went out, but you still came out.”
Han Qiao took a deep breath and turned to leave.
“Auntie…” Han Dacheng panicked.
He stepped forward and wanted to pull Han Qiao back.
“Auntie, 1 was wrong. 1-1’11 go back now. I…”
Han Qiao looked at Han Dacheng.
“All of you have come too easily. It’s my fault for always remembering how 1 was raised and how you helped me when we separated. Even if I had a grudge in my heart, 1 still forgave you time and time again, gave you gold and silver, and brought everyone to wealth.”
Ever since she had occupied this body, she treated the Han Family like how Heng Yi treated Old Man Heng and Old Woman Heng.
This was a responsibility that they could not shirk from for the rest of their life.
They couldn’t say that she was unfilial, nor could they say that she was a saint, but that she was moral and righteous.
As long as she was still a human, she knew propriety, righteousness, integrity, and shame. She knew karma.
Han Qiao pushed Han Dacheng away and walked to the central room to find a chair to sit on.
She then looked up at Father Han and Mother Han.
“Where’s Han Xiang?” Han Qiao asked.
“Ah-Xiang… Ah-Xiang fell asleep after taking the medicine.” Han Yuan hurriedly said.
Father Han sat silently at the side.
Han Qiao remained silent.
The servant girl had sharp eyes and quickly served tea.
It was the tea leaves that Han Qiao had spent a lot of money to buy.
She didn’t have much, so she gave Father Han and Madam Han half a catty.
She would not mention or take back what she had given out because it was meaningless.
As for I Ian Xiang, Han Qiao didn’t bother with her.
There was no need.
She looked at the children, “What do you think? Do you want to go back with me and work hard? Or give up halfway? Today, I will give you the chance to choose.”
Father Han and Han Yuan also looked at the children.
Han Dacheng was about 16 or 17 years old. He was completely sensible and knew what he wanted.
“Auntie, we are not afraid of hardship or tiredness. It’s just that we can’t keep up with what Master and the Headmaster taught us…”
Han Dacheng lowered his head, “We can’t do anything well. It feels like we’re useless.”
Han Qiao was surprised for a moment.
It was her negligence.
Han Chi and those children were brought up step by step by their master from the very beginning.
Han Dacheng and the others were not.
“Why didn’t you come to me and tell me about this? It’s not a big deal if you can’t keep up with the progress. Come and tell me, and I’ll arrange it for you.”
“You’re very busy.” Han Dacheng whispered again.
Most importantly, they felt that they could not bring themselves to do so.
They were the ones who wanted to come, but they couldn’t keep up with the progress. They felt very embarrassed.
Han Qiao was indeed very busy these days. She left early and returned home late, and she had to go out of the city. Heng Yi was also very busy.
Constable Qin and a few other constables had joined him and were going to Chenzhou City with him. Heng Yi needed to settle down their family.
In short, he left early and returned late.
When he got home, he would accompany Ah-Yao, talk to the children for a while, and ask a few questions before letting them go back to rest.
She had just finished her confinement period and her body was a little weak. She fell asleep as soon as she lay down and did not have time to care if they were adapting.
“I’ve indeed been very busy these past few days, but 1 also want to apologize to you. 1 brought you to my side but didn’t take good care of you. I forgot to care if you were adapting.” Han Qiao said seriously.
“But there is one thing that you must remember. You are not allowed to leave the residence at will. Even if you want to go out, you must obtain the approval of the elders and inform them where you are going.”
“If you think that you can earn money after learning for a year and a half, that’s impossible and short-sighted. You have to know that since ancient times, those who have great abilities have suffered a lot and accumulated bit by bit. No one is born with it.”
“Today, your grandparents are here. I also want to tell you that even if you start from scratch, it will be extremely difficult.”
“People say that you should start early just like the rooster began theirs.”
“Think about it yourself. I’ll wait for you outside.”
Then Han Qiao turned to Father Han and Han Yuan, “Father, Mother, I’ll be returning first.”
Han Yuan hesitated for a long time before calling out to Han Qiao, “Ah-Qiao, you’ve been so good to Han Chi, and they’re your nephews. You should treat them better than him.”
“Mother!” Han Qiao interrupted Han Yuan.
Her face darkened.
If she hadn’t been pregnant for ten months and left Ah-Yao behind, if she hadn’t experienced the pain of not being able to eat well, not being able to sleep well, and if she hadn’t given birth to a child, she might have quarreled with Mother Han long ago.
However, she did not have the qualifications to do so..
