Chapter 058 Just these two points are enough for her to make a difference
Since Xiao Min'er couldn't be left alone at home, Xia couldn't accompany her. Chen Heng took a carriage alone, had the driver help her load her belongings, and headed to the original owner's family home at Zhongyi Bridge.
Along the way, she chatted with the driver: "Uncle, where can I rent a shop cheaper now?"
"In the city, the prices are only slightly cheaper around our North Gate and a few streets around the East Gate. Miss, are you planning to rent a shop and do business there?" The driver waved his whip and shouted to passers-by to pay attention to the approaching ox cart.
Shen Heng hummed softly: "I want to open a grocery store."
"On our North Street, there are only three grocery stores. You can't open one here, and it wouldn't make sense to open one."
"Yeah." Chen Heng had already explored this area and sorted out the shops by category, so she could only go to the East Gate to have a look. "Are the shops at the South Gate and West Gate expensive?"
She has been in Nanming County for more than two months, but to be honest, she has never had a thorough look at this county.
"It's expensive. The rich families and a few poor families all live near the South Gate. The West Gate is also inhabited by rich people. Everything there is exquisite and expensive." The driver was familiar with the whole city and knew all these things clearly.
This was similar to what she had found out, so if she wanted to open a shop, she could only do so near the East Gate.
Zhongyi Bridge is still as lively as before.
The driver helped Shen Heng put the things in the car at the Shen family's gate and then left.
"Second Miss?" The gatekeeper saw that it was the Second Miss and enthusiastically helped to move things. "Second Miss, you bought so many things when you came? You are really filial."
Chen Heng: “…”
"Second Miss?" The housekeeper's expression was no longer as cold as last time when he saw the Second Miss. He was about to put on a warm smile, but when he saw the things the servant was carrying, his expression changed: "Aren't these things all bought by the Madam for the Second Miss? Why are they sent here?"
Chen Heng still remembered the last time the housekeeper had made things difficult for her, so she ignored him and headed straight towards the hall.
The maid inside saw it and hurried to report it.
Soon, Shen's mother came out happily, followed by Shen Yan, who looked dissatisfied and had her lips curled up angrily.
"Heng'er, you're here?" Yao went forward to hug her daughter, but Shen Heng dodged her.
As she was the original owner's mother, Shen Heng bowed and looked at the housekeeper who came hurriedly. This time she didn't need to explain the situation first.
"Master, Madam, the second young lady has returned all the things I sent." said the housekeeper.
"Is he here?" Yao looked at her daughter with a sad face. "Heng'er, what are you doing?"
"Master Shen, Madam Shen, since the severance letter has been written, the family ties have been severed. The relationship between father and daughter, mother and daughter, and sisters ends here. From now on, there will be no further connection." Shen Heng was not here to quarrel. Her voice was gentle, but her expression was resolute.
"Heng'er, we're family. There's no such thing as overnight hatred between family members." Shen Rongwei hadn't expected his daughter to become so cruel. He patiently said, "Daddy wasn't kind before. How could you have taken those few angry words he said to you to heart? Just tear up the severance letter. You're still Daddy's daughter."
Chen Yan watched coldly from the side. This second sister had never felt important at home since she was little. Whether it was needlework or accounting, she was very poor at reading. She also looked down on this second sister the most. Every time she went out, her dull temperament, mosquito-like voice, and always lowered head with an expression of being bullied made her the subject of ridicule by the other girls.
Now that the letter of severance has been written, it would be enough to just break off completely. I really don't understand why my parents insist on recognizing her again. Aren't having her and my elder sister enough?
Is it because Xie Jian might pass the exam? So what if he does? With my brother-in-law's ability, he can definitely pass too.
