Thinking of the several storybooks in his bag, which he had also read carefully, Xie Jianyu said, "I have you, why would I still think about other women? I know. Since you like love and romance, I can do the same."
No, he learned.
"Who likes love between men and women, romance?" Chen Heng was furious. Well, if you insist on summing it up this way, it seems to be correct. Young people are naturally like this.
Xie Jian said a little tiredly, "You've been tired for more than a month. Go to bed early tonight." Then he left the kitchen.
In the living room.
Chen Heng looked at the young man taking off his coat and felt that it was necessary to clarify the matter at this point. "Ajian, we agreed at the beginning that we would divorce when things got better. I'm serious."
Xie Jian sat on the bed, his expression cold and his eyes slightly gloomy: "Why do you have to wait until life gets better before getting a divorce?"
Chen Heng didn't hide it from him, because he could guess it anyway: "If I had proposed divorce at that time, you and your sister-in-law would not have agreed." Marriage costs a lot, and this is also true in modern times, with houses, cars, gifts received, and so on.
For ordinary families, marrying a wife is a huge effort.
What's more, in ancient times when etiquette was strict and clans were close-knit, few women who were divorced and sent back to their parents' homes had a good ending.
Of course, some people will say, isn't there Qingzhao? Such a brave woman, why don't we learn from her?
But no one knew that Qingzhao's decision to accuse her husband of a crime and ask for a divorce was the least risky option for her. She was going to be sentenced, but because most of her relatives were officials and had many connections, her sentence of several years in prison was reduced to a few days of detention and she was then released home.
What does 䥉㹏 have?
Xie Jian lowered his eyes and continued her words, "I truly won't agree. I spent all my money marrying you, so how could I possibly divorce you? Even if you force me to divorce you, you'll only be able to return to your parents' home, and you'll never be able to control your own life again. If they promise you to someone else, you'll have no choice but to obey. After all, it's best for you to stay in the Xie family."
Yes. A daughter who has been divorced or returned to her parents' home can be forced to remarry.
As long as the emperor is still alive, there will be no female household.
Xie Jian raised his eyes and looked at Chen Heng coldly: "So, when you got the letter of severance, you had already planned all this in your mind, right?"
Chen Heng's face flushed. "Alas, I'm still a little naive. I'd blush if my scheme was discovered. Look at Xie Jian, I've never seen him blush before. Things like this are best left unspoken. There's no need to say it out loud."
"I didn't think that far ahead."
Xie Jian sneered, "Three years have passed. You've learned how to do business and have acquired a skill. You've also made your way from Nanming County to the Imperial Capital, gotten to know the owners of various shops, and have accumulated a considerable network of contacts. You can now become independent."
This guy saw everything clearly. Now that he had brought it up, Shen Heng simply admitted, "Yes. That's what I planned. So? Do you have any objections? It's useless even if you do."
Are the magistrates allowed to set fires but the people are not allowed to light lamps? How can this be justified?
Xie Jian sighed, "I have no objection. But Ah Heng, my career path won't be limited to being an eighth-rank official. Have you ever thought about making further plans?"
Shen Heng was slightly startled: "What's the plan?"
"In ten years, I will definitely rise to the top. By then, it will be easy for you to use my power to expand your business all over the world." Xie Jian stood up and walked towards her. "Aheng, it's a good thing for a person to have a plan for doing things. But if you lack ambition, you will only achieve nothing."
Xie Jian was much taller than her. Shen Heng had to tilt her head slightly to face him. The close distance made her take a step back: "I don't have any ambitions."
