"Brother, you!"
Minglan first laid out the dishes for Sheng Changquan, and then sat on the small table beside him, watching him hesitate to speak.
"Sister, don't worry!"
Sheng Changquan knew what his sister was thinking at a glance.
From the look on her face, she was simply worried that she and Qi Heng would say something inappropriate, which would harm both of them, and be inappropriate for both others and themselves.
Putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Sheng Changquan said: "Sister, I didn't say anything else to the young master, I just pointed out our current situation!"
"I think with his wisdom, he should be able to understand our difficulties."
Sheng Changquan secretly added in his mind - "It's okay even if he doesn't understand it. Anyway, I've already made a small report and will let Zhuang Xuexue 'train' him properly!"
"I'm afraid he won't have that much 'free time' in the future!"
Sheng Changquan felt proud that his move was just right, benefiting others and himself.
"That's good!"
Minglan didn't see Sheng Changquan's secret smile and just nodded slightly, feeling relieved.
"No matter what, the young master is still very good to us. Brother, you have to remember that we still have to show appreciation after all!"
Influenced by Miss Wei's style of repaying kindness, Minglan also began to teach her younger brother the "good qualities" of the Wei family, and said: "From now on, if you are within your ability, just give it back!"
Minglan focused on the four words "scope of capabilities".
"Well, I understand, sister!"
Sheng Changquan nodded solemnly, indicating that he understood what his sister meant.
"That's good!"
Minglan smiled at the side and started serving dishes to her brother again.
"Come on, brother, eat more!"
…
night.
Wei Ruixuan.
Sheng Hualan and her mother each packed up and got into the bed together.
"Have you told the old lady everything?"
The mother-in-law hugged each other and talked quietly while lying on the bed.
"Um!"
Sheng Hualan nodded.
"What did the old lady say?"
"Did she say she wanted to make the decision for you?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Wang rolled over and sat up from the bed, with a nervous look on her face!
She knew that she had a bad temper, and she also knew that she was not proficient in these things in the back house.
Speaking of which, Wang Ruofu was able to live rampantly in the Sheng Mansion for so long, in addition to some factors from her mother's family, it was mostly because of the old lady's connivance and Sheng Hong's tolerance.
To be honest, when Mrs. Wang heard that Sheng Hualan was being targeted by her mother-in-law and ostracized by her sisters-in-law at the Yuan family, she really exploded on the spot!
If Sheng Hualan hadn't hurriedly and slowly grabbed her, Madam Wang would have already caused a scene in Earl Zhongqin's mansion!
"Mother~"
Sheng Hualan, who was wearing obscene clothes, helplessly pulled up the sheets for her mother and whispered: "Lie down first, but be sure not to catch the cold!"
At this time, it is still the cold spring. Although there is a charcoal fire in the house for heating, it still needs to be carefully maintained. Otherwise, you will be in danger of catching cold if you are not careful, not to mention that you are weak and weak. Quality female flow.
"Ouch! Hua'er!"
Mrs. Wang has no patience to listen to these things. Now she just wants to know what the old lady is thinking!
Mrs. Wang stared firmly into Sheng Hualan's eyes and asked eagerly: "Mother is almost dying of anxiety!"
"If you have any news, please tell me quickly!"
"Mother~"
Sheng Hualan didn't say anything, just looked at her intently.
Helpless, Mrs. Wang had no choice but to follow her daughter's wishes, lie down again, and then asked again and again: "Quick! Did the old lady say what she was going to do?"
"Or is she going to the Yuan family tomorrow to seek justice for you?"
"Mom! What are you talking about?"
Fortunately, there were no outsiders in the room, otherwise Sheng Hualan would have had the urge to cover her face.
"This is my mother...this is my mother..."
Sheng Hualan recited it silently in her mind several times before suppressing her helplessness. Finally she had to say: "Mom, why do you think about making trouble all day long?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Sheng Hualan saw her mother opening her mouth to speak, so she quickly added: "Grandma has already told me!"
"They told me to temporarily put aside my housekeeping duties and try to take good care of myself so that I can give Sister Zhuang a younger brother!"
Speaking of this, even if it was her own mother, Sheng Hualan would inevitably feel a little embarrassed.
"What?"
When she heard the first half of the sentence, Mrs. Wang was a little excited!
"Why?"
"It took a lot of effort to get the right to be the head of the family, why should I let him go just because he wants to?"
Mrs. Wang said with a slight sigh of relief: "Don't let go!"
"Hua'er, don't let go!"
"mother!"
"My daughter thinks grandma is right!"
Sheng Hualan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she could only explain patiently: "First of all, your son-in-law is only the second son of the Yuan family after all, and he will not inherit the title of earl in the future. What good can I do as the head of the family?"
"Secondly, being in charge of the Yuan family is not necessarily a good job!"
Sheng Hualan smiled bitterly: "Mother, you don't know that the foundation of the Yuan family is already in some tatters. Over the years, not only has the income of the house been unclear, but even the accounts have not been kept up!"
"There were many times when I paid for the dowry myself to plug the holes in the accounts!"
"ah?!"
"you you……"
"You...they...the Yuan family actually want to touch your dowry?"
Mrs. Wang was shocked and angry, but she felt extremely sorry for her daughter in an instant, and tears suddenly flowed out of her eyes!
"These evil bastards! They actually want to use my Hua'er's dowry, really..."
"mother!"
Seeing Mrs. Wang crying incoherently, Sheng Hualan remembered the injustice she had suffered in the Yuan family, and she burst into tears for a while.
"Hua'er... Good Hua'er, don't cry!"
Mrs. Wang wiped away her tears with a fierce look on her face! !
"Mom didn't know it before, but now it's better. Tomorrow I will go to their Earl's Mansion and question your evil-minded mother-in-law face to face. How can she, a Earl's wife, still have the nerve to touch her daughter-in-law's dowry!"
"I want to see how the Yuan family behaves if word of this gets out!"
"mother!"
Sheng Hualan felt anxious and quickly stopped her: "You must not make trouble!"
"You have forgotten that your son-in-law and granddaughter are both named Yuan!"
"Huh? This..."
Mrs. Wang had forgotten this incident before.
"This won't work, and that won't work either!"
“Wouldn’t that mean you’re going to kill me!!”
The stubborn Mrs. Wang was so angry that she gasped for a moment!
Looking like that, he was even more aggrieved than Sheng Hualan!
