Chen Heng nodded. To her sister-in-law, her husband was important, but Min'er, Ajian, and this family were equally important to her.
Seeing the warmth and encouragement in Ah Heng's eyes, Xie Jian was willing to give it a try: "Yes."
Shen Heng grinned: "Go to sleep."
"I'll tidy up the books." Xie Jian came to the desk and put the books on the desk into the drawer. Although he had a study room, he was used to reading in the living room. When he was tired, he could also see Ah Heng.
By the time he packed up his books and went to bed, Shen Heng was already asleep.
Xie Jian lay down next to Ah Heng, and soon, he hugged her tightly through the quilt, resting his face on her shoulder. As long as Ah Heng said something, he was willing to give it a try even if he felt a little uneasy.
In the next few days, neither Chen Heng nor Xie Jian had the chance to tell their eldest sister-in-law about their eldest brother's death.
The two of them were dragged by Meng Xuanlang to accompany his wife's family on a trip.
Having connections means that not only can your relatives take leave, but your friends can also take leave.
Chen Heng finally understood why Miss Peng Yunrong had been somewhat hostile towards her that day. The Peng family had indeed wanted to act as a matchmaker, but Xie Jian had said that her wife was unmatched on earth and in heaven. The little girl felt outdone by Xie Jian and her self-esteem was hurt.
After playing for two days, the little girl kept calling him "sister-in-law" and she was not happy about it.
The third day is a boat trip on the lake.
Meng Xuanlang specially called the zither player to play at the bow of the boat.
Lu Ji'an also came, wearing a warm and elegant dark green robe that made him look even more straight and slender.
Have you lost a lot of weight again?
Chen Heng was looking at Lu Ji'an, and the next moment she glanced at someone's back. She glared at Xie Jian in front of her with displeasure and pushed him away: "What are you doing?"
"You have a pretty good view here." Xie Jian looked around.
It’s a good size. You can only see the shore from this side, but the view from the back is good. Shen Heng was speechless.
The boat started moving, and a group of people were talking and laughing in the boat. The lake was rippling and the sound of piano was melodious.
The men in front were chatting, and the women in the back were talking and laughing.
Mrs. Peng smiled sweetly: "The sound of this zither is really beautiful."
Peng Yunrong waved his hand: "I don't feel anything."
Several sisters from the Peng family covered their mouths and laughed.
Peng gently tapped her sister's forehead and said, "You have to calm down and savor the music carefully. Only by entering into it from the heart can you gain understanding. You."
"I don't want to learn anyway."
"Girls must learn a few of the following: music, chess, calligraphy, and painting."
"I can play chess. Even my elder brother loses to me." Peng Yunrong suddenly looked at Shen Heng who was watching them with a smile: "Sister-in-law Shen, what can you do?"
Peng nudged her sister lightly. She had told her several times not to expose others' shortcomings. Mr. Xie and Madam Shen were from commoner backgrounds, so how could they be the same? However, Madam Shen spoke calmly, handled things with discretion, and had a very good grasp of things. She seemed to have received a good upbringing, unlike what her husband said, that she was treated coldly by her parents and ostracized by her sisters.
Chen Heng didn't think too much about it and said with a smile, "I can play the flute." She also plays the guitar, having learned it for six or seven years. After entering junior high school, she stopped playing the guitar because the course was too much. However, she would still play it when she had free time.
