Chapter 193 He is still confused
But the Master didn't think so.
Ah Heng didn't think so either.
He is not like that now. He wants Ah Heng, his sister-in-law, and Min'er to live a good life. It is not enough for him to be strong alone. Only a strong family and country can make his relatives live and work in peace and contentment.
Xie Jian glanced at Ah Heng beside him and saw that she was listening to them attentively. There was deep thought and approval in her clear eyes, but no confusion.
Ever since Ah Heng said she wanted to be reborn and become a new person, he had never seen confusion in her eyes.
He didn't understand where her determination came from, and he was still confused. What if the government was incompetent?
He once asked his teacher this question, and the teacher smiled and told him to find the answer himself.
As soon as September arrived, Shen Heng unexpectedly received a letter from the eldest sister of the Shen family. The letter said that Shen Yan had married a scholar from Nanqi County. The conditions were quite good, but she refused to marry and was forced by her mother-in-law to get into the bridal sedan.
After she and her husband moved to Yuezhou, her mother-in-law constantly troubled her, making her miserable. She was also unpregnant, and so far she only had one daughter. Her mother-in-law urged her husband to take a concubine, and she and her husband were always arguing.
After a long paragraph of complaining about her suffering, Shen Heng patiently read it to the end. The last few lines were about Shen Yuan, saying that Shen Yuan had disappeared and had disappeared since returning from the royal hunting trip. No one knew where he had gone. Shen Heng was so anxious that his hair turned white.
"Chen Yuan is missing?" Thinking of that somewhat dark young man, Shen Heng felt very uncomfortable. If it were her, the Shen family would not have been able to accommodate Chen Yuan. But she really couldn't help.
"Who's missing?" Xia was watching Nanny Feng training Zhenzhu and Achan on how to walk. When she heard Aheng say that, she asked.
"It's my younger brother. I don't know where he is."
Xia didn't say much about the Shen family's affairs: "Do you want to hear the letter?"
"No," Chen Heng said. Blood ties, even if broken, can be rekindled. Everyone's skin is thick as a wall. If that's the case, maintain normal interpersonal relationships when you meet. There's no need to contact each other when you're not together.
Just as Shen Heng was about to enter the room with the letter, someone knocked on the door.
Zhenzhu hurriedly opened the door and unexpectedly received a visiting card from a servant of one of the officials of the Secretariat. His family invited her to drink flower tea and said that Xie Jian and her husband got along very well. They had heard him talk about his wife many times, so they wanted to invite him to be their guest.
There is no need to take the compliments posted seriously. They are just normal interactions between female members of the family.
When Xie Jianqi came in the evening, Chen Heng handed him the business card.
"Now I am in charge of half of the Bureau of Sealed Affairs. There will be more and more of these famous business cards, and you have to adapt to them." Xie Jian believed that Aheng could handle it.
"If I can't handle it and embarrass you, you can't blame me." Although Shen Heng was not a shrew, she was not a master of communication either. After all, it was her first time dealing with these officials' wives, and she was still a little nervous.
"If you don't understand something, just ask the nanny. Three times is enough, and the fourth time won't be enough." Xie Jian picked up the book and read it.
Shen Heng was surprised: "You also set a limit on the number of times?"
"There will be more and more of these name cards, as well as various visiting cards. You'll have to adapt with me. As long as you pay attention, how can you possibly embarrass yourself?" Xie Jian said as if it was a matter of course. "By the way, the Eighth Prince will invite us to his palace opening banquet the day after tomorrow. You should prepare, my eldest brother and Yu will also be there."
Shen Heng nodded: "I'm going to sleep first, you should rest early too."
