Chapter 46: Heng Yi Is Bold
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Heng Yi came home, Han Qiao was cleaning up the house with her three children. After all, this was their home from now on, so they had to tidy it up and make it clean and comfortable.
The courtyard was not turned over much, and today it was stepped on tightly.
The mother and her three children looked at the piece of land and sighed.
“We’ll flip it tomorrow. When the time comes, we’ll scatter the seeds. Xiu, Yi, go and see if the chicken has water to drink and if it’s in the chicken coop.”
The three children immediately ran to the chicken coop.
The houses in West Mountain Village were much bigger than those in Ninghe Town. They were bright and comfortable.
The vegetables were still in the kitchen. The table they brought back from town was a little small. When they were packing the furniture, they made a bigger one. It was enough for the family.
At night, their parents would come over for dinner, so the children could only stand and eat.
The gate wasn’t closed, so Han Qiao saw Heng Yi when he came over.
“Heng Yi!”
Han Qiao saw that he was carrying a bag, a bow, a machete, and a chopper.
“Are you going to the mountains? Or to town?” Han Qiao asked.
She let him enter the courtyard first.
“I went hunting in the mountains. I came to tell you something.”
Heng Yi followed Han Qiao into the courtyard.
The courtyard had been cleaned up, and Han Qiao had even opened the window to let in some air. He was tall, so he could see Han Qiao’s bed. The bed was covered with a bamboo mat, blue pillows, and blankets.
“Have a seat in the central room. Are you thirsty? I’ll make you a cup of tea.”
Heng Yi shook his head.
He threw the things at the door and pulled Han Qiao into her room before she could react. He closed the door behind him and pushed her against the door.
II II
Han Qiao’s eyes widened.
She raised her leg and pushed it towards Heng Yi’s crotch.
Heng Yi grunted in pain and said, “Don’t be afraid. I’ll talk to you for a while and then I’ll leave.”
“Let go first.”
Heng Yi let go of her hand and looked straight at her.
He took out a pouch from his pocket and handed it to Han Qiao. “This is all my property. The deed to the tavern in the county town, the land deed, and the silver notes I’ve earned over the past few years. There’s also a hundred taels of silver to buy a house for Old Third Hu of Ninghe Town. The rest are all in here. I’m going into the mountain soon. If I come back alive, can you promise me one thing?”
Hearing Heng Yi’s words, she felt lost, as if she had lost all hope, as if she didn’t even care about life.
Han Qiao thought that he had helped her a lot.
“Don’t be so pessimistic. As long as it’s not murder, arson, or something that goes against morality, say it now. I promise you.”
Hearing that, Heng Yi was stunned.
Then, he was ecstatic and hugged Han Qiao tightly. “Will you marry me?”
II II
Han Qiao wanted to curse.
Heng Yi was really strong, and with his brute force, Han Qiao almost died.
She looked up at Heng Yi.
This guy’s face was flushed red, and his ears were bloodshot.
He seemed excited, shy, nervous, and had some indescribable emotions.
Han Qiao was about to speak when Heng Yi lifted her up, placed his knees against the door, and let her sit on his lap. He then kissed her hard on the lips.
The hothead didn’t know anything.
His breathing was already chaotic and he even had a nosebleed.
Han Qiao didn’t even have time to slap him.
“You have a nosebleed.”
“Since you have promised me, when are we getting married?” Heng Yi asked.
Han Qiao opened her mouth.
“If you’re unwilling to marry me, I can marry into your family and live with you in Xishan Village.”
Heng Yi hugged Han Qiao tightly. “I will treat you well. I will give you all the money I earn. I will listen to you and not let anyone bully you and the children. II
“If you don’t want to give birth to my child, we won’t.”
Heng Yi thought about these words for many days.
Every time, he would think of how to say it so as not to be rash and scare Han Qiao.
However, he really did not want to wait any longer today.
Because someone said that he wanted to marry Han Qiao, he was afraid that Han Qiao would agree to marry someone else.
Han Qiao nudged Heng Yi. “Put me down first. I need to think about this. I can’t just agree to your request.”
“Then, then, then can I stay at your place? If you meet someone else in the future, and you like him very much, and he’s willing to accept everything about you, I can give in.”
“What do you take me, Han Qiao, for? A promiscuous woman?” Han Qiao asked angrily.
“No, I didn’t. I-I…”
Heng Yi wanted to explain.
It was just that he had always been stupid.
His nose was bleeding non-stop.
Han Qiao took a deep breath. “Let go of me first and wipe the blood off your nose.”
II II
Heng Yi held Han Qiao in one arm and touched the handkerchief in his pocket with the other.
Then, he covered his nose and wiped it randomly.
Han Qiao recognized the handkerchief and suddenly realized that this guy really wanted her.
She finally understood why her youngest uncle was smiling at Heng Yi.
However, Heng Yi’s actions were always traceable.
“Put me down first. Whether it’s marriage or marrying into the family, we have to discuss it carefully. We also have to seek the approval of our parents. When our relationship reaches a certain level, I feel that we can spend the rest of our lives together. Only then can we truly be together.”
Heng Yi looked at Han Qiao. “Then, can I stay here with you?”
“If you’re afraid that others will see you, I’ll come secretly at night.”
II II
Han Qiao’s mouth twitched.
The progress was too fast. She was not even prepared.
But soon, she realized that living together was completely different from what Heng Yi thought.
She thought that they were sharing a room and a bed.
Heng Yi lived in the room next to the kitchen.
“I think there’s everything in that room. Don’t let Dacheng and the others come over. I’ll stay in that room, okay?”
II II
Heng Yi asked pitifully. Han Qiao blinked.
Then, she couldn’t help but laugh.
“Alright, I’ll let you stay in that room. Can you put me down now?”
Heng Yi’s face was filled with embarrassment.
He let go of Han Qiao.
Han Qiao handed him the pouch.
Heng Yi said, “since we’re going to live together, you should be in charge of the money.”
Han Qiao raised her eyebrows and opened her purse.
There was a familiar household registration deed, a house deed, and a small stack of silver notes.
Han Qiao counted. 1,300 taels.
“You…”
“With this money, you can marry any kind of girl you want. You can choose any 18-year-old girl with a good figure. I’ve married before and have three children. I’m even three years older than you. When we’re together, people will say that you’re blind, laugh at you, and even mock you.” Han Qiao tried her best to persuade Heng Yi, hoping that he would change his mind.
“I do,” Heng Yi said anxiously. “It’s their business what others say. I want to live with Sister Qiao. I want to be your husband, your family.”
“Ever since that day, I’ve been trying to change myself. I’ve said more things in the last 10 days than I have the last 24 years. I want to leave a good impression. I’ve been working hard to change.”
“Sister Ah Qiao is right. There are many beautiful girls in the world. I can choose if I want to marry them, but I don’t want to.”
“Sister Ah Qiao is the first person I want to marry, and the only one..”
