Heng Yi went to Ninghe Town on August 26th.
Indeed, the Heng family didn’t do anything. When Heng Yi arrived, the house was empty.
They did not make any preparations.
“We don’t have money at home. What do you want us to do? You need money to buy anything!” Old Woman Heng cried.
Heng Yi said nothing.
Old Woman Heng looked at Heng Yi’s horse. “Is this your horse? Where did it come from? It must be very expensive!”
Heng Yi ignored her.
He turned around and was about to leave when Old Woman Heng pulled him back. “You haven’t said anything yet.”
“..”Heng Yi took a deep breath. “I only wish that I was never picked up by you!”
Then, he walked out.
He got on his horse and left.
Old Woman Heng took a while to recover. “He, what did he say?”
Panicking was wrong. He stumbled into the house. “Old man, old man, bad news. Old Fifth knows, he knows!”
Old Man Heng frowned. “Know what?”
“He knows that he’s not our biological son and that he was picked up. He just said that he wished he could never be picked up by us. He knows…”
Old Woman Heng turned around anxiously.
“Old man, what should we do? What should we do?”
They could control Heng Yi because of their parents!
“What’s the rush? So what if he’s not our biological son? We’ve raised him for so many years. He should support us in our old age no matter where we go!”
Old man Heng was much calmer.
He stood up and said. “I’ll go next door!”
“What are you doing next door?” Old Woman Heng hurriedly asked.
“You’re going to find Mother Zhen to discuss how to do things, right? I’ll go with you!”
Old Man Heng looked at Old Woman Heng coldly. “Why are you following me? You’re a hindrance!”
Old Man Heng said so, and Old Woman Heng didn’t dare to follow.
She looked at Old Man Heng with a wronged expression.
He stood on the spot and stomped his feet.
Old Man Heng walked out of the house and walked to Mother Zhen’s door. He tidied his clothes before knocking on the door.
He’s here!
Soon, a young woman opened the door. “It’s Master Heng. Come in, I’ll call my lady!”
Mother Zhen was still dressed as a young lady, so the servants called her Miss.
“Yes!
Old man Heng nodded.
He followed her into the central room.
Mother Zhen slowly walked out of the house, looking at Old Man Heng listlessly.
“What’s going on? Are you sick?” Old man Heng asked with concern.
“He’s not sick, he’s just…” Mother Zhen glanced at Old Man Heng.
How could she tell an old man about this kind of woman’s matter?
“Why is Uncle here?” Mother Zhen asked.
“No. 5 just came back and quarreled with his mother!”
Hearing that, Mother Zhen instantly perked up. “Heng Yi is back?” Where is he?”
“He went out again.”
Mother Zhen’s heart sank. She pursed her lips and said, “uncle, Heng Yi and the Han family are only a few days away from getting married. The Sun family doesn’t dare to do anything now…”
Mother Zhen took a deep breath. “Why don’t we let them get married first and then let them live in town?”
It would be more convenient to do things if they were close.
Old man Heng nodded.
“What you said makes sense. It’s just that we don’t need money for this wedding. Old Fifth has been coaxed to the point of being alienated from us. He doesn’t take a single cent from home.” The more Old Man Heng spoke, the sadder he became.
Heng Yi had brought the prey back home earlier, and he could sell them for money every day. It was a small matter for him to drink some wine and buy some meat.
It had been more than ten days since the house had tasted the smell of meat.
However, Mother Zhen’s family had a lot of fish and meat every day, and the children were so greedy that they cried.
Mother Zhen naturally understood what Old Man Heng meant.
He wanted to take money from her.
What a good scheme.
“Uncle, tell Heng Yi. He will definitely be willing to pay for the sake of the Han Corporation.”
Old Man Heng nodded repeatedly. “That’s right!”
“Uncle doesn’t know yet, right? Heng Yi hunted a tiger last month.” Mother Zhen said casually.
“What?” Old man Heng suddenly stood up.
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
All he could think of was silver. A tiger would cost a lot of silver.
It was not as dangerous as hunting a tiger.
Would he be injured?
Old man Heng couldn’t sit still anymore. Even if his thoughts were impure, his mind was only filled with silver, silver.
He didn’t even tell Mother Zhen and left in a hurry.
He returned home like a madman. “Go and find Old Fifth. If you find him, bring him back even if you have to beg him on your knees.”
“Father?”
“Old man?”
Old man Heng stuttered, “Heng Yi made money. He made a lot of money. He hunted a tiger.”
A tiger…
The Heng family members were stunned for a moment, then came back to their senses and ran out to look for Heng Yi.
Heng Yi went straight to the Heng family mansion to find Uncle Heng.
Uncle Heng was shocked by Heng Yi’s arrival.
“Heng Yi, why are you here?”
“Uncle!” Heng Yi shouted.
Come in and sit!
Heng Yi followed his uncle into the hall, and his uncle let him sit.
Soon, his niece brought him some tea. “Fifth Uncle, have some tea!
It was said that there were only two kinds of people in a house. Although the Heng family was good at scheming, they were much more reasonable than Old Man Heng.
Old man Heng said that he would give me five hundred copper coins a year, but Uncle Heng had to come to his house and urge him again and again before he could give it.
Heng Yi wasn’t the kind of person who would talk about random things, so he directly stated his intention. “Uncle, can you help me take care of my marriage?”
“Your father?
“It’s only a few days away from the wedding, but they haven’t done anything. I want to buy a small courtyard in town and live there after we get married!”
Big Uncle Heng was really jealous.
Earlier on, the other families were all poor, but the second family had Heng Yi and became rich.
Back then, he had picked Heng Yi up, but he thought that raising a child required food and water. His second daughter-in-law had just given birth to a child, and he had milk, so he brought him over to raise it. When Heng Yi grew older, he called for his mother and refused to come back.
“Heng Yi…”
Uncle Heng swallowed his saliva and said, “actually, have you ever thought, thought…”
Big Uncle Heng looked at Heng Yi and saw his calm face.
He didn’t complain or feel angry about the Heng Family.
It was as if the Buddhist matter had nothing to do with him.
Uncle Heng suddenly threw caution to the wind. “Have you ever thought that your parents aren’t your biological parents?”
“I know!” Heng Yi said softly.
“You know about it?” Uncle Heng was shocked.
He stood up.
Looking at the calm Heng Yi.
He sat down slowly. “Yes, it’s true that your parents are biased, but it’s rare to see people treat you badly like your parents.”
“You shouldn’t be surprised that you thought of this!”
Uncle Heng looked at Heng Yi. “Have you ever thought about finding your parents?”
Heng Yi was silent for a moment, then shook his head.
He wouldn’t look for his biological parents.
They had been separated for more than twenty years, so what if they met again?
Who could be sure that it wasn’t another Heng Family?
“But Heng Yi, when I brought you back, you were in good condition, be it swaddling clothes or clothes.”
“Perhaps your biological parents are very rich, very
