Chapter 166: Never Give In
"Of course I'm here to attend the wedding." Xia hadn't expected Madam Tang to be so kind to her son. She was grateful and said to Madam Tang, "Min'er is studying at the prefectural government office. I'm grateful. If I've been rude, please bear with me, considering he's still young."
"Among those children, my favorite is Min'er. Although he is only seven years old, he is the most polite. My sister Rou also likes this little brother. Right?" Yu looked down at her daughter who was snuggling beside her.
"Yes." The little girl nodded and smiled innocently: "I like Brother Min'er, and Daddy likes Brother Min'er too."
Yu looked up at Xia and saw that the woman had a happy look on her face. She stroked her daughter's smooth black hair without saying a word.
Chen Heng frowned slightly. Everything Yu had done gave her a bad feeling. Although the eldest brother of the Xie family was not as good-looking as Ajian, he was still very outstanding among men. Seven years of life in an aristocratic family and seven years of immersion in officialdom had transformed him into a completely different person.
Even if Yu Shi couldn't forget the real Lord Tang, but she had survived for seven years, would she really help them indifferently?
Chen Heng didn't believe it and thought of another possibility.
Just as they were talking, a maid came hurriedly to tell them that the meal was about to begin.
"Mom, I want Brother Min'er to accompany me." The little girl said coquettishly.
Just as Yu was about to agree, Shen Heng bent down and looked at the little girl, her voice gentle: "Sister Rou, Brother Min'er wants to eat with his mother today."
"I want Brother Min'er to eat with me."
"Brother Min'er will only be able to see his mother after so many days. If Sister Rou can't see her mother for so many days, will she be sad?"
The little girl thought about it and realized that she would be sad if she didn't see her mother for a day. She nodded and said, "Okay. Anyway, I can see Brother Min'er every day."
Xia thought this little girl was really considerate and liked her from the bottom of her heart: "Madam, Sister Rou is really sensible."
Yu Shi had a smile on her face, but it didn't reach her eyes. She glanced at Chen Heng and took her daughter's hand: "Let's go."
She wants to avenge her husband, and she also wants to keep her current husband. He is a good husband and a good father.
Therefore, she would do her best for him and Min'er. If possible, she would like to have another child, a child that belongs to them both.
If her husband finally decides to stay with that woman, she will not force him. Put yourself in his shoes, Mrs. Xia is quite miserable.
But everyone has to live for themselves. Xia Shi probably doesn't know about this yet. And it's true, if such an ignorant country girl knew about this, it would only bring bad things.
After watching Madam Tang and her group walk away, Xia and Shen Heng took Min'er's hand and walked towards another place where the banquet was to be held.
"I didn't expect that Madam Tang likes Min'er so much. Ah Heng, just let Min'er go when the little girl invited you. I think Madam Tang likes Min'er too." Xia's mouth was almost grinning to her ears.
"Min'er will naturally follow his mother." Shen Heng said with a double meaning.
She could sense Yu's intention and believed that Yu also understood her position, which was to never give in.
The eldest brother of the Xie family belongs to the eldest sister-in-law. Even if she doesn't want him, it has to be the eldest sister-in-law who doesn't want this man. I'll discuss it with Xie Jian in the evening. If this goes on, the eldest sister-in-law will be too passive. We need to think of a way.
Xia was chatting and laughing with her son when she saw her sister-in-law's angry face: "Aheng, what are you so angry about? Your nostrils are flaring."
Chen Heng: “…” Sister-in-law, you don’t have to explain it in such detail.
