Chapter 178: The Torch is Passed Down, Life Continues (2/2)



A long time later, an author wrote a book about their descendants.

The torch is passed on, and the work never stops.

Of course, these are all later stories.

In the next few days, Chen Heng's grocery store began trial operation and found that Liu Gang was really amazing. More than a year ago, this kid was simple and honest, and did things inflexibly, but now he was very good at greeting customers and sold a lot in one morning.

Especially the women who came to buy things, they all liked to chat with Liu Gang, and after a few words, they bought things.

Ah, ordinary people also have their own fun.

Chen Heng was just telling Liu Gang that in the future they should recruit employees with brighter looks and sweeter words when they saw Chen Xian walk in with her maid.

"Heng'er."

"Big sister?"

"Chen Yuan said you opened a shop, so I came to take a look." Chen Xian looked at the shop, which was larger than the average storefront. A place of this size must cost a lot of rent. "The design of your cabinets is quite special."

It is very convenient to take or find things.

Since they had some business to do in the shop, the two of them went for a walk under the willow tree outside.

"Here's a hundred taels of silver. My father asked me to bring it to you." Chen Xian took out a purse with a silver note inside. "It's to congratulate you on opening your shop."

"Sister, my life is OK now, but my family is rich, and it's time for us to get some money." Shen Heng herself would not accept it, and she refused to talk about skills.

After some excuses, Shen Xian saw that Shen Heng really didn't need it, and for the sake of her family, she let it go: "Father wanted to marry my younger sister off soon, but my younger sister seemed to be possessed by a demon and insisted on marrying a prince or noble."

Chen Yan marrying a prince? Where did the idea come from? Chen Heng asked curiously, "We are a merchant family. Although my father has a reputation as a kind man, he is not worthy of the attention of the princes and nobles."

"That's right. I was previously invited by the daughter of the Ning Palace to take my younger sister to a few polo matches and flower shows. Perhaps her horizons have broadened, and she's become delusional. Now that she's seventeen, it will be even harder to find a husband after she turns eighteen."

Chen Heng shook her head. A girl, no matter in modern times or ancient times, would have a hard life if she couldn't find her own position.

Everyone has seven emotions and desires. Some emotions and desires must be overcome and thought through positively so that life can get better and better.

"Heng'er, come back home sometime and persuade your mother and your younger sister." Chen Xian was tired of persuading her.

"Big sister, it's not that I don't want to, but you know how my younger sister treats me. I don't know what to say about mother's affairs. I won't go back and cause trouble."

The two of them talked about some personal matters, and it was Shen Xian who did all the talking.

Only then did Shen Heng realize that Shen's mother had been treating Chen Yuan harshly. She always took advantage of Shen's father's absence to either belittle or scold him, and even gave him rotten rice. When Shen's father found out, he beat Shen's mother, and Shen's mother was even more resentful. Chen Yuan's life was really hard.

When they first met, the boy was so sunny and gentle. If he continued to behave like this, Shen Heng was worried that Shen Yuan would become angry.

We can't just move out like modern people do, and we have to wait until our parents die to divide the family property.
