Chapter 063: Setting Sail
An hour later, Chen Heng finally selected two strong young men. Although they were called young men, they were already married. One of them was called Liu Gang, who was 22 years old, but his child was already 10 years old.
At this time, it was almost noon.
Chen Heng took the two of them to her grocery store, explained the nature of their work, and explained that it had to be kept confidential. She said that their wages would be settled daily when they arrived at the store. If there was no business, they could go and do their own things. They would officially start work in the afternoon. After that, she let them leave.
After closing the wooden door of the shop, looking at the people walking on the street and feeling the warm sun, Shen Heng took a deep breath. Her brilliant career was about to begin.
Although the beginning was very humble and not as high-end as other predecessors who traveled through time, it was still smooth sailing and had help from noble people.
This nobleman must be Lu Ji'an and his yamen runners.
I returned home with light steps and saw a service truck at the door.
Another guest? Shen Heng's mind raced. This service vehicle seemed to be private, otherwise it wouldn't be parked at the door.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw a woman talking to Xia. The woman was about twenty years old, wearing a bright skirt, with a slim figure. She spoke with a smile, and looked familiar.
An old woman was standing beside her. At this moment, the old woman saw Chen Heng and hurriedly reminded her: "Miss, the second lady is back." Then she bowed to Chen Heng.
When she saw the old woman, Shen Heng knew who she was. She was the original owner's eldest sister, Shen Xian, who had married and moved to Shancheng four years ago. She seldom came back and only came back during the New Year and other holidays.
This elder sister was quite nice to the original owner. She never looked down on her because of her stupidity. She would always keep her in mind when she had good things, and would protect her when she was bullied.
"Second sister." Seeing her second sister whom she hadn't seen for a long time, Shen Xian happily went over to her second sister, took her hand, and looked at her left and right: "You look much better than the last time we met."
"Big sister, why are you here?" The original owner's big sister had never been to the Xie family once. Now she had severed ties with the Shen family's parents. Shen Heng knew the reason for her visit right away.
Xia also guessed the reason why her elder sister came. It was not convenient for her to just sit there and listen: "Sister Aheng, please eat at home at noon. I will go to cook." Then she went into the kitchen.
The sun is shining.
Chen Xian pulled her second sister to sit on the chair prepared by Xia Shi: "Second sister, you really shouldn't be angry with our parents again, and you shouldn't break off the relationship."
Indeed. She had said it so clearly that day, even bowed her head, and yet it still wasn't clear enough? Chen Heng really didn't want to bring up the past again.
"We are close relatives, how can we just break off the relationship? Broken bones are still connected by tendons, and blood is thicker than water." Seeing the second sister silent, Shen Xian said again: "Listen to your eldest sister, go home and admit your mistakes to your parents, your parents won't blame you."
"Big sister, I'm very happy that you came to see me." Shen Heng smiled gently: "Although you are my biological sister, please don't interfere in the affairs between me and the Shen family. If you interfere, I will no longer recognize you as my sister."
Isn’t this serious enough and clear enough?
Chen Xian was stunned. Her parents told her that her second sister seemed like a different person, but she didn't believe it. Now she believes it. How could the Xie family teach her like this? "Aheng, you...you don't even want your sister anymore?"
"If you want me as your sister, don't talk about this anymore. I've made up my mind."
"What's so good about the Xie family? Have you forgotten how you married into the Xie family? Your sister-in-law..." After all, in the Xie family, Shen Xian didn't say much: "Even if your parents are not your parents anymore, they are still your parents, but to the Xie family, you are just an outsider." As a daughter-in-law, she suffers in her husband's family, and only she knows the hardships.
