Yu Huiru knew her daughter had wanted to go into the mountains for a long time, but she had always stopped her because she was worried. This time, with Han Yixian accompanying her, she felt a little more at ease.
Having a lively, active daughter who loves hunting has certainly given her a lot of worry. But it's also a sweet burden; before she found her daughter, she never had so much fun.
Han Yixian carried a large willow basket on his back, while Du Yuhan carried a small basket and a bow and arrow as they went into the mountains.
The mountains were now lush and green, and many medicinal herbs had sprouted. Du Yuhan would gather any herbs she needed and plant those that could be grown in the yard. With the well water from her spatial dimension as a guarantee, most of the herbs she planted survived.
Han Yixian carried a willow basket on his back and stood beside Du Yuhan, patiently waiting for her to pick herbs, and then carried it for her.
Because of the drought, many people went into the mountains to find food, and there are many traces of human activity on the mountainside, so there are very few prey, and they are almost nowhere to be seen.
The two continued walking deeper into the mountains. They were both very skilled and could handle even wild boars and other ferocious beasts if they encountered them deep in the mountains.
Once you enter the deep mountains, there are fewer traces of human activity, since the deep mountains are too dangerous and few people dare to go in.
Soon, Han Yixian and his group encountered their prey. Du Yuhan's arrows never missed, and she caught two rabbits and a pheasant.
Once they had prey, Han Yixian transferred the few herbs he had to Du Yuhan's small basket, while his large basket contained the prey.
Du Yuhan asked, "Would you like to try shooting a couple of arrows?"
Han Yixian laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid of being outdone by me?"
Du Yuhan said, "So what? You already know how to shoot arrows. But I'm curious, how did you learn to shoot arrows?"
Han Yi replied, "Do you think it's easy for me to be the eldest grandson of the Han family? I was raised by my grandfather from a young age, and he gave me an elite education. He hired many teachers to teach me from childhood. Archery is just one of the skills, and it's a must-learn. Moreover, I like it very much, so my archery skills are quite good."
The other children in the Han family don't need to work as hard as I do; as long as their studies are passable, that's enough.
Du Yuhan said, "Your grandfather must have been grooming you to be the future heir of the Han family. But now that you've left the Han family, aren't you afraid he'll resent you from beyond the grave?"
Han Yixian laughed and said, "He won't blame me. You don't know, after I came of age, he told me privately that if I was unhappy in the Han family, I should go out and start my own business. He believed that I could make a name for myself."
My grandfather secretly passed on many things to me while he was alive, including the power he secretly possessed. Even my father was unaware of these things.
I don't know why, but when I was very young, my grandfather wouldn't let me have much contact with my mother, nor with my two younger siblings. He even told me that if they bullied me, I should fight back fiercely without hesitation.
Unfortunately, I wasn't home when my grandfather passed away, and I didn't even get to see him one last time.
There's one more thing I need to tell you: I've dealt with Han Yikun and Han Yiping. They weren't innocent in what my mother did to you before; they deserved it.
Han Yiping wanted to marry into a wealthy and powerful family and enjoy a life of luxury, but I'm determined not to let her have her way. I'm going to make her marry into a poor and humble family so that she'll live a life of resentment.
Han Yikun wanted to pursue a career in crime, so I cut off his path, ensuring he could never walk that road again and would be stuck at the bottom of society. My mother is already exhausted by her two children.
Du Yuhan said with a hint of amusement, "This is equivalent to shattering all of your mother's hopes. That must be heartbreaking for her. I bet it's more painful for her than anything else."
Han Yixian said, "Yes, what often causes suffering is the human heart itself. Greed and insatiability create endless pain. People like my mother will never be satisfied, and will therefore live in pain forever."
My mother's concern for me back then wasn't entirely genuine. Her kindness towards me was all for show, because I was far superior to Han Yikun, and my grandfather and father were both focused on grooming me; she needed me to bring her glory.
So when I was diagnosed with lifelong paralysis, she discarded me like trash, because I was no longer useful to her. That wasn't the attitude of a biological mother towards her son at all; it was as if I was just a pawn in her game.
As Du Yuhan listened to Han Yixian's words, she suddenly remembered a piece of news she had heard in her past life. It was said that someone had revealed that Han Yixian was not Zeng Yufen's biological son, nor was he a child of the Han family.
However, Han Yixian's appearance was very similar to his father Han Xiao in some ways, so there were many different opinions at the time.
Since Han Yixian had already passed away, she didn't pay attention to those unverified rumors.
She now felt that the old man of the Han family was acting strangely, and Zeng Yufen's attitude towards Han Yixian was also strange. Could there really be something fishy about the relationship between Han Yixian, Zeng Yufen, or the Han family?
Du Yuhan stared at Han Yixian for a long time before asking, "Brother Han, do you look like your father?"
Han Yixian said, "We should look quite alike. I resemble my father in many ways."
Du Yuhan then asked, "And what about your mother?"
Han Yixian shook his head and said, "I don't look like my mother in any way. But Han Yikun does look a lot like her."
On a whim, Du Yuhan asked again, "Do you know your parents' blood types?"
Han Yi replied first, "I know, why are you asking?"
Du Yuhan asked with a pounding heart, "What are your parents' blood types?"
Han Yixian replied, "I remember once my father was injured and needed a blood transfusion. My mother's blood type was B, while my father's was O."
Du Yuhan then asked, "And what about you? What's your blood type?"
Han Yixian said, "I am blood type A."
Du Yuhan stared at Han Yixian for a long time without saying a word, her mind in turmoil. She never imagined that asking him on a whim would uncover such a shocking secret.
Du Yuhan recalled that in her previous life, after Han Yixian became paralyzed, he lived in Luancheng. His mother, Zeng Yufen, had never visited him even once, which was very strange. What biological mother would be so heartless to her own son?
Du Yuhan had previously suspected whether Han Yixian was Zeng Yufen's biological son, otherwise why would she be so indifferent to him? It turns out they might not really be mother and son.
Han Yixian was puzzled by Du Yuhan's reaction and asked, "Yuhan, what's wrong?"
Du Yuhan looked at Han Yixian and said slowly, "Brother Han, I have to tell you a shocking secret. You must stay calm and not go crazy after hearing it."
Han Yixian laughed and said, "With you by my side, nothing can drive me crazy anymore."
