Because Sheng Minglan had just woken up, Aunt Wei couldn't disturb the child any more, so after a brief explanation or two, she just asked Xiao Tao to serve her well, while she herself was planning to go out and talk to Madam Wang. , so that I can get some promises back for my two children.
Of course, she was not doing it for herself, but for the Sheng Minglan siblings. At the very least, she had to have a promise to take good care of them.
In the room, Xiao Tao was lying beside Sheng Minglan's bed, looking at her with concern and saying, "Girl, are you okay?"
Sheng Minglan just shook his head but said nothing.
Suddenly, she remembered something and asked, "Xiao Tao, where is the child?"
"Where is my little mother's brother?"
The voice was hoarse and dull, as if two stones were rubbing against each other.
"Girl, don't worry, I have already handed over to Brother Bai."
Xiao Tao shook her little head and poured it all out at once: "Girl, you don't know that after our little mother gave birth to my brother, the people from Lin Qige actually came up and tried to rob him!"
With some fear on her face, Xiao Tao said unconvincingly: "Humph!"
"But I won't give it to them!"
"My dear, I have already told you that except for you, my dear, I can't befriend anyone!"
"Especially the ones over at Linqi Pavilion!"
Speaking of this, Xiao Tao also suddenly remembered something. Remembering that her own actions did not seem to be in line with Wei Xiaoniang's arrangements, she couldn't help but look at Sheng Minglan timidly and stammered: "Girl, I will hand over my brother to you." I gave it to Brother Bai, is this...is this...wrong?"
At that time, Xiao Tao really had no choice. How could she, a child, be the opponent of two adults?
Even though she was just a delicate and frail little lady, she was definitely not something Xiaotao, a five-year-old child, could resist.
"It's okay, Xiao Tao."
Although Sheng Minglan had some emotions when she heard the news, she really didn't have the heart to take care of her younger brother now that her mother had lost her mother. Perhaps it was just right to hand him over to her elder brother.
At the very least, Sheng Changbai would definitely not harm Xiao Qi.
What's more, since Sheng Hong and his wife have returned, everything will be fine if their father has the final say.
"Oh, all right!"
Xiaotao grinned, finally letting go of her worries.
"Xiao Tao, how is it outside now?"
After lying on the bed and panting for a while, Sheng Minglan spoke again: "How is my little mother's funeral?"
Remembering what happened to Wei Xiaoniang, Sheng Minglan burst into tears.
Xiaotao stretched out her hand, wiped her girl's tears, gathered the corner of the quilt, and then said blankly: "Girl, I don't know what's going on outside!"
"These days, I will always be by your side, girl."
As if she felt that it was inappropriate to speak like this, Xiao Tao thought for a while and added something: "However, I heard something outside, and it seemed that when the mistress came back, she would immediately organize the mourning for the young lady and take care of it. After all."
"Moreover, the mistress also set up a memorial tablet for my little girl in the Yuqing Temple to offer incense. She promised that when my brother grows up, he can worship his biological mother!"
Recalling the rumors that Mrs. Wang was virtuous and virtuous, Xiao Tao racked her brains and recounted everyone's comments, saying: "Not only the people outside, but even Aunt Wei is satisfied!"
"It's quite generous for me to say such things about my funeral."
Sheng Minglan knew what outsiders meant when they said this, simply because her mother-in-law was just a concubine, and it was not easy to have such an honor.
Although Sheng Minglan felt uncomfortable about this, she had to accept it. After all, the world was like this and there was nothing one could do.
Especially since Sheng Minglan was still lying on the bed, unable to stay there at all, let alone attend her own mother's funeral, the pain of being the son of a human being was even more indescribable.
"Oh, right!"
At this time, Xiao Tao suddenly remembered something and added: "Just today, the old lady also returned to the house, and as soon as she came back, she called the master over!"
"I heard that the master was severely reprimanded and even scared to the point where he kowtowed and admitted his mistake!"
Because the management of the back house of Sheng Mansion was in disarray, there were still many servants whispering to each other at this moment.
"Cough...cough..."
Because Sheng Minglan was a little troubled by what she wanted to know, she coughed involuntarily.
"Ah? Girl, take a rest!"
"I'll tell you more about these things when you get better!"
"You should have a good rest now!"
Remembering what Aunt Wei and others had told her, Xiao Tao immediately stopped talking and just comforted Sheng Minglan to lie down and have a good rest.
In response, Sheng Minglan could only blink weakly and closed her eyes obediently.
But Xiao Minglan, who was lying on the couch, had her eyes closed, but she was thinking silently in her heart.
"Auntie, I will take my brother with me in this yard..."
"Live well."
…
In this way, while Sheng Minglan was drowsy, sleeping and waking up, all matters in the Sheng family were still proceeding in an orderly manner.
First of all, after being tormented by Mrs. Wang for many days, Aunt Wei finally got a clear statement from Sheng Hong, saying that Sheng Minglan would be raised under the old lady's knees from now on. With this statement, Aunt Wei finally settled down. Heart.
However, in addition to this niece, Aunt Wei also asked about the whereabouts of her little nephew Tuan Ge.
However, because Brother Tuan is a male, it is not easy for Aunt Wei to intervene, let alone bring him back to the Wei family. After all, unlike Sheng Minglan, little Mengyue is a descendant of the Sheng family. There is no reason for the Wei family to interfere too much.
Therefore, Aunt Wei was speechless when she learned that Brother Tuan would be raised under his wife's lap and cared for by Sheng Hong himself.
In particular, Sheng Hong also said that not only Minglan, but also Tuan Geer, who was raised by Mrs. Wang, would receive the old lady's attention in the future and ensured that they grew up safely, Aunt Wei was even more relieved.
Without him, in the whole Sheng family, only the old lady is the real good person, and as long as she says it, she will definitely do it.
After all, looking at what Mrs. Sheng has done in her life, everything proves this!
Moreover, Wei Xiaoniang also said this to Aunt Wei when Minglan was born.
At that time, Wei Shuyi said this: "Sister, the safest place in the entire Sheng Mansion is actually the old lady's longevity hall. If possible, I really want to raise Ming'er in the old lady's courtyard."
From then on, Aunt Wei knew what her eldest sister was thinking, so when she heard Sheng Hong's words, she stopped talking and stopped talking.
