Chapter 053: Things always have to make a choice

"Aunt, can I no longer go to school with Master Qi?"

Seeing that Min'er looked a little sad, Shen Heng stood up and sat next to him, touching his still thin face: "Although you can't go to Master Qi, there will definitely be a better master to teach Min'er enlightenment."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true." Min'er is young, but he loves reading, which is really rare.

"Aunt, I want to hear your story."

Chen Heng thought for a moment and told the story she had heard as a child about the little dragon looking for his mother.

When she was halfway through her story, she heard a knock on the door. Although her sister-in-law was there, she ignored it. But after knocking for a long time, her sister-in-law didn't open the door, so she had to get up and say, "Min'er, go to sleep for a while. Auntie will come back to tell you a story later, okay?"

"good."

Just as Shen Heng went out to open the door, Xia Shi also hurried out from the backyard: "Who is it?"

Shen Heng looked at the woman standing at the door in surprise. She was Yuan Yu's mother, Yao.

"Madam, look, the second young lady is so happy to see you that she doesn't know what to say." The accompanying maid said to Yao.

"Heng'er?" Seeing her daughter, Yao was very excited and wanted to hug her.

Happy? Oh, my eyesight isn't working well. Shen Heng retreated and said coldly, "I wonder what Madam Shen did come to my house yesterday?"

"Mrs. Shen?" Yao was stunned by her daughter's way of addressing her. Then, she looked sad: "Heng'er, how can you call me that? I am your biological mother."

Xia hadn't expected her sister-in-law's mother to come over, so she hurriedly said, "Why don't you come in and sit down first?"

"If Madam Shen has anything to say, please speak at the door." According to the general routine, Shen Heng could already guess the purpose of Yao's visit, and of course she would not let them in.

When Yuan Yu was in trouble, the Shen family was unable to escape.

Xie Jian was able to take part in the imperial examination, and the Shen family came to propose marriage to him again.

She had said before that she didn't blame her parents for having to push her out. Things always have to be a trade-off, and being the one being sacrificed was unavoidable. But even if such a wealthy family couldn't support their daughter emotionally, they should at least give her some financial support.

My own daughter, who was carried in my womb for ten months.

Life was not easy in the Xie family, and her natal family also pressured her. As a result, she found a way out, but lost her life.

If her original parents had supported their daughter, she would not have chosen such a difficult path to join the Xie family after traveling through time.

I have finally built up some empire, and I really don't want to have anything to do with my former parents anymore. Good things are not coming to me.

Xia originally wanted to persuade her sister-in-law, after all, she was her biological mother, but when she thought of the letter of severance that Ah Heng had mentioned before, she said nothing.

"Aheng, are you holding a grudge against your parents?" Yao's eyes immediately turned red. "There's no such thing as overnight hatred between parents and children. After you left that day, your parents felt really bad."

"Yes, Second Miss. Madam has not eaten or drunk for several days for your sake and has lost a lot of weight." The maid said beside her.

Chen Heng looked at the plump and round Yao, who had gained weight quite quickly. She was too lazy to say anything and simply pushed her out: "Please come in." She entered the courtyard and closed the door.

Yao looked at the closed door in disbelief, her face turning blue with anger: "This unfilial daughter, this unfilial daughter."
