"Then what kind of person am I?" I don't know what kind of person he is in Ah Heng's heart.
Chen Heng felt like she had dug a hole for herself and muttered, "You are a talent for a prime minister. In the future, you will be second only to the emperor and above everyone else." Seeing Xie Jian squinting at her, she nodded and said, "I firmly believe this."
"Later? Now?"
"Now?" Chen Heng laughed dryly. "Now, work hard to become a prime minister, second only to the emperor and above everyone else."
"The Master is deeply righteous, Meng Xuanlang is upright and honest, and yet your Prime Minister still needs to work hard?" Xie Jian sneered, infuriating him to death. "Have you forgotten that your husband passed the Tongxue exam at the age of seven, and although he didn't get the top three places at the age of seventeen, he did pass the provincial, metropolitan, and palace exams. Even if he didn't have these, he still worked hard and didn't lag behind others, right?"
If I really want to say something good about him, I can always think of it, even if it's just praising his good looks.
Well, she didn't think about it that way. Shen Heng smiled slightly awkwardly: "Of course, of course."
Xie Jian snorted coldly.
At this time, the Meng Mansion arrived.
The two men got off the carriage.
Seeing Xie Jian's long face, Shen Heng didn't want to bring his emotions to the Meng Mansion, so she gently tugged at his sleeve: "Ajian, you're right. I was wrong, don't be angry."
"What did you do wrong?" Xie Jian said with a resentful look on his face.
If you give me a step, can't I just walk down it properly? Chen Heng didn't get angry. At this time, she agreed to everything he said: "I don't have good eyesight, you are the best."
The size of the Meng Mansion was no less than that of the Wang Mansion. When Chen Heng worked as a waitress in the Meng family shop, she would come here once a month and was very familiar with it.
Meng Xuanlang is the youngest in the family and can be said to be the apple of everyone's eye.
Old Master Meng was not at home. He just told his family a few words, saying it was not a serious matter and that they did not need to worry. Then he went to drink with his old friends.
The ones who were anxious were the head and mistress of the Meng family, as well as Mrs. Peng.
After the greetings, Xie Jian was taken to the study, while Chen Heng and Peng were chatting in the garden nearby.
"After I got married, he treated me very well, but on this matter, he refused to listen to my advice." Peng stroked her belly gently. She was pregnant and he refused to listen to her.
Chen Heng advised, "Take good care of yourself. Having a lively and lovely little baby is the most important thing."
Mrs. Peng nodded. "It's been a whole day and a whole night. No matter what, his anger should have subsided. I hope Minister Xie can persuade him to leave the study."
"Didn't the old man say it? It's not a big deal. You should be more relaxed."
Peng sighed, "I've been having a lot of trouble lately. Yesterday I received a letter from my father saying that my sister Yunrong has been grounded by my father and cannot go out for six months."
House arrest is a common method used by parents to punish their daughters. It usually lasts for a few days, and the longest is two or three months. This is the first time I've heard of it in the past six months. Shen Heng was surprised: "What happened to Yunrong?"
The little girl has reached the age for marriage. Although it is the fate of her parents and the words of the matchmaker, as long as they are from the same place, both parents will think of ways to make the children like the man first. Being confined to her house for half a year is not a good thing.
"No more talking." Chen Heng was not an outsider. Although Peng wanted to find someone to talk to, she decided not to do so because it concerned her sister's reputation.
Chen Heng didn't ask much. Seeing that she looked worried, she told her some interesting things that happened to her while working in the shop.
