Han Jingchen heard the coupleās recollections and said, "Heās in the capital now and has approached Han Chunli."
The Jiao couple both exclaimed in surprise, "What did you say?"
Han Jingchen picked up his teacup and took a sip, "Itās exactly what you heard. He found the Han Family, learned my dad is gone, and then got information from that kid Han Chaohui, which led him to Han Chunli."
Upon hearing Han Chunliās name, the old ladyās face changed immediately, "I donāt know what your father was thinking, spoiling someone like that."
She especially disliked Han Chunliās domineering nature since childhood. While Han Chuan Nian indulged her, forcing his own children to tolerate her was too much. Although it was their family business and she had no right to interfere, she couldnāt stand Han Chunli.
If she hadnāt promised Han Chuan Nian not to reveal her background, she would have embarrassed her in minutes.
She said disapprovingly, "Since you know sheās not your real sister, why do you still indulge her? Over the years, sheās taken so many benefits from you, just thinking about her makes me angry."
Han Jingchen patted the old ladyās arm, "Wanqing and her mother arenāt by my side, those external things mean nothing to me, but not anymore."
The old lady didnāt catch the implied meaning and clapped her hands, "Thatās right, sheās already married, and sheās no longer your responsibility. Now that her real father has come for her, let them reunite. The Han family has treated their father and daughter well."
At that moment, Mr. Jiao spoke up, "Is there news about them?"
Han Jingchen nodded, his eyes lighting up, "Havenāt found them yet, but we have a direction now. You know about this; just donāt spread the word yet."
The old ladyās eyes instantly turned red, "Ah, ah, wonāt say, wonāt say, this is marvelous news."
Mr. Jiao patted his wifeās shoulder, "Alright, you said itās good news."
The old lady wiped her tears with her sleeve, "You sit tight, Iāll head to the kitchen."
She truly felt for Han Jingchen, and hearing him say there was news about his wife and daughter, she couldnāt control her tears for some reason.
She got up and headed to the kitchen, murmuring while rinsing rice and cooking, "Oh, heaven, open your eyes please, Jingchen is a good kid, the Han Family are honorable, they shouldnāt suffer these hardships."
She saw the gleam in Han Jingchenās eyes earlier and naturally knew how much he was hoping for a family reunion soon.
Behind her, she heard the voice of her second daughter-in-law, Guo Gaixiu, "Mom, Iām back. What are you mumbling about?"
The old lady lifted her hand to wipe the tears from her eyes, "Nothing, just recalling some old things. What did you buy back?"
Guo Gaixiu showed the groceries to her mother-in-law, "Besides the meat, fish, and tofu you asked for, I also bought some vermicelli, mushrooms, peanuts, and vegetables."
The old lady thought for a moment and got an idea, "Alright, you help me out, Iāll cook."
Guo Gaixiu replied with a smile, "Itās only because of Jingchenās influence that weāre lucky enough to benefit from this. Iāve longed for your cooking, Mom."
Their good relationship had them chatting and laughing, which put the old lady in a much better mood.
Han Jingchen only left after having dinner at the Jiao Family. From the words of the older couple, it wasnāt hard to tell Qiu Shaocheng did it intentionally back then. His eyes squinted, "Keep an eye on Qiu Shaocheng and Han Chunli, report any news promptly, and send what Han Chunli has done to Qiu Jouxuan."
