After Xia He was sent away, Han Qiao smashed a set of teacups.

Duan Yue went forward to comfort her, “Madam, there’s no need to be angry with Xia He. She’s not worth to be angry at or for you to harm your body.”

“I’m not angry. If 1 didn’t think the child in her womb is also a living being, 1 would’ve sold her the moment she wanted to keep her child. “As you can see, we’re pregnant at about the same time. If we give birth on the same day, or in a span of a few days, and then give birth to a son and a daughter at the same time, if she has bad intentions to switch the two children…”

“I didn’t suspect anything when she didn’t mention being a nanny, but 1 immediately did when she mentioned it.”

Duan Yue broke out in a cold sweat.

Young Master. Young Mistress. The child of a servant girl… Their status was as different as heaven and earth.

It wasn’t that there weren’t cases of changing children these days, especially in wealthy families, so the Madam’s worries were valid, but…

Duan Yue took a deep breath, “Madam…”

“This is the Master’s first child. You can see how much the Master likes it. If someone intentionally switches our children, the Master will die of pain.” “That’s why I sent her to the manor in the mountains and never let her come back in this lifetime.”

“She’s the mother of her child. It’s her choice whether to keep her child or not. 1’11 give her a choice for the sake of that little life, but I won’t give her the chance to harm me or my family.”

She wouldn’t even stay at home with her pregnant cousin.

There were some things that one had to be careful of.

She had to nip all the drawbacks in the bud.

“Then, Madam, do you still want to find a nanny later?”

“Of course, 1 have to. If 1 give birth to a son, 1’11 find a woman who gives birth to a daughter. If 1 give birth to a daughter, I’ll find a woman who gives birth to a son.”

In short, they had to have a difference.

Duan Yue felt that this was the right course of action.

There were some things that one really had to be careful of.

Han Qiao asked Duan Yue to clean up the broken pieces on the ground before she got up and walked around the courtyard.

When Heng Yi came back with the wild boar and pheasant, he also picked a bunch of azalea flowers for Han Qiao.

She looked really beautiful when she blushed red.

“Do you like it?” Heng Yi asked.

“I do. Now hurry, wash up, and eat something.”

“Alright.”

Heng Yi went to take a bath.

Han Qiao trimmed the azalea and placed it in a vase.

She even gave some to each of the children.

The flowers were not valuable, but they were beautiful and the intentions were priceless.

The children who received the flowers were overjoyed.

Sun Xiu and Sun Yi embroidered a purse with azalea flowers.

When Heng Yi came out of the shower, the dishes were already on the table.

He ate a few mouthfuls before saying, “1 found someone in a cave, but I’m not sure who it was. 1 left some medicine and food behind, so 1 left him alone.”

“Good,” Han Qiao replied.

He also mentioned the matter of the thief running away from the government office.

“The prison in the county can’t hold him, but of course, someone might let him go. It’s not important. Go to County Magistrate Wu and tell him that you didn’t find him in the mountains.”

“Remember to mind your facial expressions. Don’t let Magistrate Wu see through your flaws.”

Heng Yi nodded.

Han Qiao asked him, “Did you find anyone in the mountains?”

He was about to say that he had found someone.

However, he instantly understood what Han Qiao was trying to do, “No.”

“Something’s wrong with your eyes. Your eyes are flickering.”

Han Qiao asked a few more times but Heng Yi still answered, “No.”

Han Qiao felt that it was about right. She said, “County Magistrate Wu will definitely ask you where you went to look.”

“Don’t be in a hurry to answer. You have to think about it a little. Don’t be too detailed. Just pick the main points.”

“Being too detailed will also show that you deliberately wrote it down to fool him.”

“Just say a few words and maintain your usual silence.”

At first, Heng Yi thought Han Qiao’s actions were unnecessary.

However, when he arrived at the government office, he noticed County Magistrate Wu and his advisor.

County Magistrate Wu’s question, expression, and actions were almost identical to how Han Qiao had acted last night.

County Magistrate Wu was testing him while carefully observing him.

He asked the same question twice and even asked him how many pheasants he had hunted.

“How many?”

Heng Yi thought for a moment, “Seven. Bai Cha hunted one.”

County Magistrate Wu smiled and said, “Go back. Go to the office early tomorrow.”

“Yes.”

After Heng Yi left.

County Magistrate Wu then asked the advisor, “Advisor, how many of Heng Yi’s answers do you think are true?”

The advisor was silent for a moment, “There seem to be no flaws. He is a dull person, but he is not alert and smart enough to catch on. He is not good at making friends with others. 1 don’t think he’s lying.”

“…” County Magistrate Wu sat back on his chair and sipped his tea, “I’ll be transferred to Chenzhou next year. Can 1 bring this person along?”

Qiao Yi’s fast food restaurant was too profitable, but Heng Yi didn’t think of using it to bribe them.

Perhaps it didn’t matter if he went to Chenzhou or not.

But he couldn’t. If he went to Chenzhou, he would need money to build relationships.

That was why he wanted Heng Yi to pay the silver.

“Next time, when you have time, go to Heng Manor again. I want to see Madam Heng again.” The advisor said.

“Isn’t that simple? The Madam will be hosting a banquet for these rich ladies and young ladies in Puyi County in the next few days. At that time, the Han family will also come.”

Heng Yi left the government office.

He stood on the street and exhaled softly.

He never knew that being a high official would be this hard.

These people were too devious and scheming.

There was a hidden edge and interior motives in every word they utter.

He accidentally fell into it.

He went to the clinic to ask if there was any news about the doctor.

He planned to invite a doctor from Chenzhou to Ninghe Town to take a look at Father Hu. No matter what, he would do his best.

Back home, Han Qiao waited for Heng Yi to come back.

“Is it as 1 predicted?” She asked when she saw the fatigue on his face.

“Yes.”

Heng Yi followed Han Qiao’s instructions and remembered the scene, the conversation, and the tone and expression of County Magistrate Wu.

“The advisor is also here.” Heng Yi said.

Is it true that the world is in chaos?

Han Qiao frowned slightly and tapped her fingers on the table.

After a while, she said, “They might want to drag you down with them.”

iQit

Heng Yi didn’t understand.

Han Qiao asked Duan Yue to invite Bai Cha over.

To speak of her own views on this matter.

“I think there are two reasons why County Magistrate Wu and Grand Advisor want to drag you into this. First, you are capable, and second, I can make money.”

“If you have the ability, you can do things for him. You can help him do many things that he wants to do but can’t. Money could be given to him from top to bottom. One had to know that in the officialdom, money was needed for food, drink, and toilet. People needed money for favors. Sometimes, there were roads that money could not smash open and doors that could not be knocked open.”

Bai Cha agreed with Han Qiao.

“Sister-in-law’s words are reasonable. When I was still in the High Duke’s Public House, a merchant spent at least 500,000 taels of silver to see the prince. He even sent boxes of rare jewelry to the prince.”

“This is just to meet him and discuss a deal.”

Even though Heng Yi didn’t care much about money, he couldn’t help but ask, “Did he get what he wanted?”

“It worked. That’s why the High Duke’s Public House was raided later,” Bai Cha said without a change in expression.

Heng Yi and Han Qiao were silent. The High Duke’s Public House was not wronged at all..
