Chapter 349: Complete Break

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Were these old couple his reasonable grandfather and grandmother who spoke and did things according to the rules?

“How did you become like this?” Han Dacheng roared.

“Hasn’t Auntie been good to you? Was she not filial enough? Go to the village and take a look. In the entire Xishan Village and Puyi County, how many married women are as filial as Auntie?”

“You’re the ones who let her down.”

“For the sake of money, are you willing to abandon everything? Today, you abandoned your daughter. In the future, will you abandon your son, your grandchildren, and us?”

“You two are too disappointing.” After Han Dacheng finished shouting, he turned to look at his father, second uncle, and youngest uncle, who were stunned.

“You taught me since I was young that as a child, I should listen to adult’s words, but you forgot to tell me that 1 should listen to what’s right and correct what’s wrong. 1 can’t let them continue to make mistakes just because they’re my elders.”

Han Dalang was instantly ashamed.

He looked at his own father, hoping that he would give up this one thousand taels of silver.

However, he was still disappointed.

Father Han did not speak. He chose silver.

Han Yuan sat on the side with a pale face and remained silent. She also tacitly agreed to choose silver.

H H

Han Dacheng was disappointed.

“I understand.” Then, he ran out.

“Brother!” Han Da Yong’s voice came from outside,

“Wait for me!”

Looking at Father Han and Han Yuan, Han Qiao wanted to laugh.

She got someone to prepare a pen and ink and wrote a letter of separation.

The amount of silver that was given and the witnesses were clearly written down.

Her uncles wanted to persuade her to stop this, but they didn’t know how to.

Father Han and Han Yuan had gone too far.

They were also people with daughters. When their daughters returned to their parents’ homes during the holidays, they would bring things over. That was filial piety, so they would accept them righteously.

However, they couldn’t go to a girl’s house to ask for money.

Their daughter was already married and had her own family. No matter how rich or how poor she was, her parents could not go to her door and ask anything of her.

Let alone asking for ten thousand or even a few hundred taels.

Two years ago, families like theirs would have to save up for a long time to earn one tael of silver.

In the past two years, Han Qiao had brought everyone to earn money and now they could buy land and fields.

Their days were getting better and better, but they didn’t have much silver on hand.

The uncles were still in a daze.

Han Qiao had already written the letter of separation, and Father Han and Han Yuan had already pressed their fingerprints onto the paper.

That impatient look on their faces made them look very ugly.

“Uncles, please press your fingerprint as witnesses.”

H H

Initially, some of the uncles didn’t want to sign the paper. Their anger flared up for a moment.

But if their parents were so cruel, why should they, as uncles, insist? One day, there would be a time when the couple would regret it.

Therefore, the uncles also pressed their inked stained fingers on top of the paper.

Han Dalang didn’t even wait for Han Qiao to call him. He went forward and immediately pressed his fingerprint.

His hands were trembling.

When he pressed the fingerprint, tears rolled down his face.

He felt terrible.

Han Erlang and Han Ming hesitated for a moment when they pressed their fingerprints, but they quickly pressed them again.

“We’ll go pack our things and leave now. We won’t disturb you anymore.”

Father Han and Mother Han were in a daze.

Especially when they received the 1,000 taels of silver that could be exchanged at any bank, the two of them were slightly stunned.

Han Qiao had prepared quite a lot of things, but this time, there were two more sets. She gave them to Han Dalang, Han Erlang, and Han Ming.

They wanted to leave without even having lunch.

The uncles felt ashamed.

Han Dalang and his brothers also felt embarrassed.

She also felt sad.

At the entrance, Han Yuan took a few steps forward and said, “Ah-Qiao, I’m sorry. But… But if we don’t get money from you, Ah-Xiao and Ah-Sa-”

“Madam, that’s your family matter, it has nothing to do with me. The road is long and difficult up ahead, please take care.”

Han Yuan’s eyes widened.

Han Qiao’s words shattered the last bit of hope in her heart.

She thought that even if she got the money, Han Qiao would still be her daughter. The letter of separation was not important. After a long time, Han Qiao would definitely forget about it.

Just like this time, Han Qiao would also invite them to her children’s wedding banquet.

“Farewell, Madam. I won’t see you off.” After Han Qiao finished speaking, she stuffed the gift that Han Yuan and Father Han had given Li Mi into her hands. “Since there’s no relationship between us, we don’t want your things. Take them back. We don’t lack this.”

After she coldly rejected their gifts, she turned around and walked into the courtyard.

She ordered people to close the door.

With Han Qiao calling her own mother “Madam”, their relationship was completely broken.

In this lifetime, she would never see them again.

Whether they lived or died had nothing to do with her.

Han Yuan couldn’t come back to her senses.

Han Qiao was direct and this time, they had truly lost their daughter.

The door was replaced with a wall.

Han Yuan stumbled over to Father Han, “Father, Ah-Qiao calls me Madam.”

Father Han’s eyes widened.

His eyes were filled with shock, but it eventually turned into resignation, “1 understand. Get on, we’re leaving.”

This time, Han Qiao did not prepare anything for them.

The uncles’ gifts were exceptionally sumptuous.

Han Yuan looked at the red seal and silver slip in her hands.

H 11

The money given by her three sons was not all used to buy things.

The bank slips were very cheap, costing around two hundred copper coins. There were only two hundred copper coins in the red envelope.

She bought the two children some Xuan paper.

Han Dalang stood outside the carriage and stared at his parents in silence. His voice was cold and indifferent, “Father, Mother, 1 won’t give you a single copper in the future, but 1 will still provide you food and clothing. Don’t expect to receive anything more than that.”

“I mean it. Erlang and Ah-Ming will also do the same. You two better take care of yourselves.”

As a son, he could not beat up his parents, but they could control their money.

One thousand taels was enough to raise the two children until they reached adulthood.

However, he felt very uncomfortable.

The other children were reluctant to part with their families.

Only Han Dacheng and his two brothers stood not far away, unwilling to come over to bid them farewell.

Han Dalang did not go to them either.

No one felt good.

“Let’s go.”

Before he left, Han Dalang took a deep look at his son.

He did not go up to say goodbye, nor did he tell them to be sensible and obedient.

He knew that his children had been reborn and did not need him to tell them what to do.

That was good.

It was really good.

The Heng and Han families left.

The manor fell silent.

Han Qiao sat in the central room and took a deep breath.

“Mother,” He Cheng threw himself into her embrace and said in a childish voice, “Mother, don’t be sad. Cheng’er will be good. Cheng’er is good.”

Han Qiao looked at her kind and lovable He Cheng and the big yellow dog beside him.

There were also a few disabled dogs.

She suddenly laughed and patted his head, “Cheng’er has always been a great boy. Where did these dogs come from?”

Han Qiao asked despite knowing the answer.

She knew that these were the dogs that Li Mi had adopted..
