Chapter 73 I also have a scale in my heart
Meng Xuanlang exclaimed at this moment: "Isn't that the headmaster?"
When everyone looked over, they saw the headmaster of the academy hurriedly arriving with dozens of students. He ordered the students to help and then went into another tent, where several county officials were staying.
"Let's go too." Meng Xuanlang bowed to Shen's father and walked towards the tent where the county magistrate was.
After Xie Jian saluted his father-in-law, he said to Chen Heng, "I have something else to report to you, sir. If you are tired, you can go back first. We don't need you here." After saying that, he followed Meng Xuanlang into the tent.
"Dad, look at this Xie Jian, he doesn't even pay attention to anyone," Shen Yan consciously gave Xie Jian face, but in the end he didn't even look at her: "Who is he?"
Xie Jian at least gave him face, so Father Shen didn't say anything. Seeing that everyone else was busy and didn't pay attention to them, he said, "Yan'er, go to your mother's place and help distribute porridge. Heng'er, come here. Your father has something to tell you." Then he went straight out of the tent.
Anything to say? Although Chen Heng didn't have any special skills after traveling through time, as a modern person, she had at least seen a lot. This was probably related to Meng Xiaozi.
Outside the tent.
Shen Rongwei said, "Heng'er, this little girl Meng is the same age as your little sister. Go ask her if she's engaged."
Are you attracted to Meng Xuanlang and not Master Lu Ji'an? Shen Heng looked at him with amusement. Don't let him end up with nothing. "Master Shen, outside, let's keep some affection for each other. Privately, have you forgotten that we broke off our relationship a long time ago? Do I need to remind you again?"
Shen Rongwei's expression changed. "Heng'er, your father has repeatedly lowered his status for you. Are you really so heartless and disregard the father-daughter relationship?"
"Goodbye, Master Shen." Shen Heng bowed and turned to leave.
"Heng'er." Shen Rongwei was furious. "What on earth did the Xie family give you? With Xie Jian's character, can you really rely on him? If he ever becomes successful, you'll be divorced."
"Mr. Shen, do you mean that only the Shen family can I rely on?" Shen Heng asked calmly.
"How can there be any overnight hatred between parents and children? You've always been confused when it comes to things since you were a child. How can you be so confused even in such a big matter?"
Chen Heng didn't really want to argue with the Shen family about the right and wrong of this matter. Every time she brought it up, she felt really upset. "Stupid? If Master Shen really cared about me, his daughter, there are many ways to prevent me from marrying into the Xie family. You know very well that what the Xie family wants most is your guarantee. As long as you guarantee Xie Jian, the Xie family will agree to cancel the marriage."
"You also have to consider your family's reputation. If you cancel the marriage with the Xie family, you will be accused of betrayal by the world. If you guarantee Xie Jian, what if he turns out to be the same person as his father? It will also damage the Shen family's reputation. You should at least consider your eldest sister and third sister, right?"
Chen Heng was so angry that she laughed: "Everyone has a scale in their heart. Since your scale is not on my side, since you have already chosen to abandon me, your daughter, why bother to win me back?"
"You, you unfilial daughter."
"Master Shen, I have my own standards. I gave up my life's happiness for the Shen family, which can be regarded as repaying your kindness in giving birth to me. After that, we just need to save face. The rest, as written in the letter of severance, should be clean. If you repeatedly ignore my words, then I will not give you face."
Shen Rongwei's face looked extremely ugly.
At this moment, Chen Yan rushed out from behind the tent and said angrily: "Chen Heng, you have gone too far." She sneaked around from behind the tent, thinking that she would hear about her own life-long event, but she didn't expect to hear such heartless and unrighteous words from her second sister.
