Chapter 201: Standard Configuration of Small Households (2/2)



"there is none left?"

"Yeah. Mother-in-law didn't say anything else."

Xie Jian nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

"Ajian, is there any news about mother-in-law?" Xia asked excitedly. Her mother-in-law was such a good person, she really didn't want to believe that she would abandon her family.

"No. I suddenly remembered that it was very late, so sister-in-law should go to bed early." Xie Jian got up and left the hall.

Shen Heng hurried to catch up.

It was still early, and as usual, Shen Heng began to look at the account books while Xie Jian read the scrolls, but he was frequently distracted.

"Ajian, what's wrong with you?" Chen Heng felt that something was wrong with Xie Jian: "Is there something wrong?"

"When my eldest brother had a headache recently, he was able to remember some past events, but they were still very vague." Now, he, his eldest brother and the teacher can talk about anything. During their most recent meeting, his eldest brother said that he was quite happy that he could remember some vague things.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Chen Heng knew that Xie Jian had always wanted to lure the person who performed the incantation to appear, and then follow the clues to find the person behind it.

"But the past he remembered was not me and my sister-in-law, nor my father and mother, but a woman who hit her head against the wall." Xie Jian took a deep breath and found that his fingers were trembling slightly, so he quickly clenched them.

"A woman who hit her head against the wall?" Chen Heng thought for a moment, "Perhaps, this incident left a deep impression on him?" Most people would definitely have a deep impression of such things. Take her for example, she would still be afraid when she thought of the man in black who died in Lord Lu's house last time.

Xie Jian nodded. He had gone to the Dali Temple to look for the case involving that woman, but the people there said that small cases like these were usually not kept after they were closed. Since he hadn't found any, he said, "Go to sleep."

Chen Heng had always had a very good sleep and could fall asleep as soon as she touched the bed. When she was about to fall asleep, her mind turned to things about Xie's mother, and she suddenly remembered that last year when she went to the mountain to check Feng Ma Ma, she met the eldest brother of the Xie family who was also visiting the grave.

At the time, the eldest brother of the Xie family said, "A few years ago, a woman died in front of the Dali Temple while seeking justice. I felt pity for her and took care of her funeral. Every year at this time, I come here to burn some paper money for her."

It is normal to feel pity and sympathy when seeing someone dying in front of you. As a human being, you will feel a little sad. But isn't it unreasonable to insist on burning paper money every year?

Unless subconsciously, this woman is extremely important to the eldest brother of the Xie family.

Thinking of this, Shen Heng suddenly woke up.

Just as Shen Heng was forcing herself to stop thinking and fall asleep quickly, a person came from under the quilt. Without any other movements, he just moved closer to her and rested his forehead on her back.

At this moment, Chen Heng's heart suddenly ached.

The end of the year is getting closer.

Everyone is busy preparing for the New Year, and the Xie family is no exception.

This year's business did not lose money, the income and expenditure were just enough to balance, but Xie Jian's caravan made a lot of money.

Now Chen Heng is struggling with whether to live like this for the rest of her life. After thinking about it for a long time, she decided that living with Xie Jian is the most cost-effective.

Deep down, she still wants to pursue love, but she also knows that the best love is self-love, which can bring a promising future.

Her current life makes her feel that even if she faces storms, the future is still promising.

So, Xie Jian's money is her money, so take it boldly.

At the end of December, Chen Heng and Nanny Feng went together to buy a boy and a servant girl to be responsible for some rough work.

From now on, Zhenzhu served Xia, while Achan followed Chen Heng.

It can be said that the standard configuration for a small family is already available.
