Chapter 139 Shanshan's Open-mindedness

Xia Shengsheng thought Shanshan would put her in a dilemma.

But I didn't expect that Shanshan was really clear-headed when it came to major issues.

After Mrs. Su finished speaking, Shanshan looked into Xia Shengsheng's eyes.

Then he turned around and looked at Madam Su and Mr. Huang.

Took a few steps back.

Suddenly he knelt down and bowed deeply.

"Shanshan is grateful for Madam's guidance and care over the past few months, but she doesn't know how to repay her.

Now, I can only kowtow to Madam and Mr. Huang here to express my feelings.

If Madam is still willing to see Shanshan in the future, Shanshan will come to pay her respects to Madam from time to time.

If she doesn't want to, Shanshan will always pray in her heart for the happiness and health of Madam and Mr. Huang.

Please ask Madam and Mr. Huang to let my mother and I go."

Xia Shengsheng did not stop Shanshan from kowtowing to Madam Su and Mr. Huang.

After all, Mrs. Su has taught Shanshan for such a long time. As the old saying goes, once a teacher, always a father.

Even if I have only been a master for half a day, I must always remember Madam Su's kindness.

Mrs. Su looked at Shanshan like this and suddenly felt a little disappointed with her.

What she just said was not entirely false.

Although Shanshan started late, she is the most talented among the children.

The progress in the past six months has been particularly rapid.

She really wanted to train Shanshan well.

It’s just that her last disciple has already been chosen.

But now, she tried to seduce Shanshan with the identity of her last disciple, but Shanshan turned out to be just like her mother, unmoved, which made her really at a loss.

Mr. Huang was so angry that he slammed the table and spoke with gritted teeth.

"Okay, okay! Since you are shameless, then never set foot in the gate of the Huang Mansion again, otherwise you can blame me for being ruthless."

Xia Shengsheng helped Shanshan up, and she knelt and bowed.

I'm not selling myself to the Huang family, so do I have to give up my dignity and let them trample on me?

"Since Mr. Huang and Madam Su said so, I will take Shanshan back today.

Thank you Mr. Huang and Mrs. Su for your cultivation over the past six months.

If there is a chance in the future, Shanshan will definitely repay Mrs. Su's kindness.

Here are 200 taels of silver notes, which are all Shanshan's expenses for the past six months. Thank you, Madam Su and Mr. Huang. We will take our leave now."

Xia Shengsheng took Shanshan directly out of the Huang Mansion, not even letting her pack her clothes.

Although Xia Shengsheng did not agree with what Mr. Huang and Madam Su did.

But she still had to save face, after all, Mrs. Su was like a master to Shanshan.

He has been really good to Shanshan over the past six months.

It can be heard from Shanshan's words every time she comes home that she likes Mrs. Su very much.

But no matter how much you like someone, when people's interests are not common, they will always go their separate ways.

Although Mr. Huang and Mrs. Su's actions were rather radical, at least they did not do anything against the law.

If you are like some villains, you will do anything to achieve your goal.

Then Xia Shengsheng and her son might not be able to leave the Huang Mansion today.

After letting Shanshan walk out of the Huang Mansion's gate, I still couldn't let it go for a long time.

Xia Shengsheng patted her head and said, "I'm sorry, Shanshan, if mother agrees to cooperate with Madam Su and Mr. Huang, you can continue to learn from Madam Su.

But I don’t want to, I don’t want to be threatened by others! It’s all my fault that I delayed you!”

Shanshan turned around, looked at Xia Shengsheng, and then suddenly hugged Xia Shengsheng tightly.

"Mom, don't apologize. I did nothing wrong in this matter. The teacher once said something that I think makes a lot of sense.

People cannot do things against their will for the sake of their ideals.

Although I really like learning embroidery from Mrs. Su, I can't let my mother be controlled by others. If that's the case, I would rather not learn it.

From now on, I will go home and help my mother with the chores, so that she can relax a little. In the future, I will be able to see her more often, which actually makes me feel pretty good.”

I didn't expect that in just half a year, Shanshan could speak so many profound truths.

All this is thanks to Mrs. Su.

Mrs. Su not only let Shanshan learn embroidery, but also let her study and attend classes with the children in the family.

I will repay this kindness if I have the chance.

Yiyi, Ye Chao, Ercheng and others, although they didn’t quite understand what their mother and Shanshan were saying?

But when they were asked to leave the house, the people were not friendly.

Something must have gone wrong in the mansion.

But since neither of them gave any details, they didn't ask.

Anyway, just get out safely.

After Xia Shengsheng and Shanshan talked it out, neither of them bothered about it anymore.

We wasted some time at Huang's house and it was almost past noon.

The children were also starving.

Xia Shengsheng quickly asked the children to get on the donkey cart and drove it to a busier street.

I chose a restaurant with a good reputation.

I took a few children in to fill my stomach first.

After the meal, the other children tried their best to find happy topics to dispel the gloom on Xia Shengsheng and Shanshan.

Xia Shengsheng didn't think it was a big deal, but she was worried that Shanshan and Mrs. Su had feelings for each other, and she felt sad.

But Shen Shen was chatting and laughing with his brothers and sisters throughout the meal, and it was hard to tell that he was any different.

"Oh! Mother, elder sister, brother Ye Chao, second brother, little brother, you don't have to tease me on purpose, I'm not that fragile.

Although it’s a pity that I can’t continue learning from Madam Su, I still have to live my life.

Maybe I can meet a better master in the future!

But, Mom, let me tell you one thing, please don't be angry.

If Mrs. Su has any difficulties in the future I can help her.

I also want to do my best to help Mrs. Su."

"Of course, we just disagree with Mr. Huang and Madam Su on something.

It doesn’t mean that we will never contact each other again.

After all, Madam Su has taught you for half a year, and we must definitely remember this kindness.

I'm glad you think of me like this!"

Xia Shengsheng is very satisfied with Shanshan's character. Not only is she sensible, but she is also open-minded. Most importantly, she is grateful.

How could she be angry with such a good child?

After this matter was brought up, everyone sitting there suddenly burst into laughter.

I don't know what they are laughing at, but they seem very happy.

"Okay, let's eat! After we finish eating, we'll go shopping. I'll give each of you one or two taels of silver. Go buy whatever you want!

Also, Shanshan's family only has the two sets of clothes that were made some time ago. She didn't bring back any new clothes. She will have to make two more sets to wear during the New Year. When they are ready, I will ask the shop to find a car to take them back for us, and we won't come to the provincial capital.

And we have to get back before dark! Otherwise it will be even colder if we travel after dark."

One tael of silver is indeed a lot for a child.

But Xia Shengsheng has always had the habit of giving pocket money to several children.

Especially the two children who are studying in the city.

Every time I get pocket money, there is always a lot left over.

I won't spend money recklessly, so when I go out, of course I have to give them enough pocket money.

Buy back the things that you normally don't want to buy.

Besides, Xia Shengsheng has this ability.
