"Xu Changqing?"
Sheng Changquan was a little confused, and the image of a drooling madman suddenly flashed in his mind.
"Why, what's wrong with this name?"
The old lady noticed Sheng Changquan's strange behavior and asked involuntarily.
"Huh? Ha! Grandma, it's okay!"
"The grandson just remembered something else."
Sheng Changquan laughed, explained a few words casually, and passed by.
"grandmother."
After joking for a while, Sheng Changquan leaned against Mrs. Sheng and asked softly: "Where is my sister? Where has she gone?"
Because she didn't see Minglan, Sheng Changquan was also a little curious. After all, according to past habits, Sheng Minglan usually would not leave the Shou'antang Hall during her sleep. Unless necessary, she would definitely stay here and hide. Leisurely.
"Tomorrow!" The old lady smiled and said, "She was dragged out by this girl Ru'er. It seems that these two little sisters have something to say privately!"
The old lady was not unaware of Minglan's daily interactions with her two sisters. However, in her eyes, these were just trivial matters. As long as they were not excessive, they would not be a training for Minglan.
Although Rulan often made some unreasonable demands on Minglan, there were some differences between concubines. Although the old lady couldn't bear Minglan, she was powerless after all. It would be better if she didn't move. And if she scolded Ru Lan, Mrs. Wang from Wei Ruixuan would definitely fight back.
In this way, it is not clear. I am afraid that Sheng Changquan will also suffer some consequences. After all, the old lady is an old man after all. In this world, the average life expectancy of people is generally low. If she really acts like this, then everything will be lost. If something happens to her, what will happen to Minglan and her brother in the future?
Therefore, the old lady had to ignore some things.
However, the old lady could do it, but Sheng Changquan was a little unhappy.
"Grandma, it's true that the fifth sister always wants her to do this and that, as if she is deliberately tormenting her!" Sheng Changquan deliberately complained next to the old lady: "I just pity my sister..."
As soon as Sheng Changquan said this, he quietly raised his head and wanted to take a look at the old lady's expression.
Unexpectedly, the old lady looked down at him thoughtfully at this moment.
The two's eyes met, and Sheng Changquan's remaining words were immediately stuck.
"Ah?! Ancestor...grandmother..."
Sheng Changquan hesitated, a little embarrassed.
"okay!"
The old lady saw through Sheng Changquan's little thoughts at a glance. She just wanted an excuse to leave so that she could go out to see the situation and see if she could help Minglan.
"If you want to find Ming'er, then go ahead!"
"She should still be in the wing of the eldest lady's yard at the moment."
The old lady pointed out a clear path for Sheng Changquan.
"Ha ha!"
Sheng Changquan giggled a few times again, and then without further delay, he first saluted the grandmother in the hall, then said hello to Fang's mother beside him, and then immediately ran out.
Behind her, the old lady looked at Sheng Changquan's figure gradually running away, with a slight smile on her lips.
"Old lady, Brother Quan really cares about Miss Ming!"
Fang's mother knew that the old lady had always been worried about her, and she knew that she had been worried about what Minglan would do in the future.
After all, Sheng Hong, the master, is unreliable. If the old lady falls ill, Minglan will really be helpless in the future. Therefore, after seeing this, Fang’s mother immediately whispered to the old lady. The side said so.
"yes!"
The old lady sighed with emotion: "Girl Ming, besides me, I finally have someone to rely on from now on!"
…
On the other side, Rulan was indeed pulling Minglan and making some unreasonable demands.
"Sixth sister, you have to remember it, you must not forget it!"
Rulan grabbed Minglan's sleeve and said reluctantly.
"Fifth sister, I really can't help it!"
Minglan made a sad face and said unhappily: "A few days ago, you asked me to embroider two handkerchiefs for you, and today you asked me to make lamb soup for you. How can I be busy?"
"Fifth sister, I don't care. You can only choose one thing today. I can't do the other one no matter what!"
Because Rulan needed the handkerchief in a hurry, and Minglan still lacked some skills in the process of making the handkerchief, that's why she said this.
"No!" Ru Lan objected, and then started to say unreasonably: "I promised to give someone a veil tomorrow, you can't refuse!"
"Otherwise!" Ru Lan said like a landowner oppressing farmers: "You will steam lamb soup for me first, and then embroider a handkerchief for me tonight?"
Because of Sheng Changquan, Minglan was quite accomplished in the kitchen. Everyone in the Sheng family liked her cooking, especially Zhuang Xuexue.
"Fifth sister, you!" Minglan was a little angry!
Behind the two of them, Xiao Tao saw that her girl was being bullied by Sheng Rulan again, and she immediately felt anxious, but what could she do as a maid? There was nothing she could do!
However, it happened that Xiaotao noticed a strange figure at this time, so she shouted as if she saw a savior: "Girl, fifth girl, look!"
"That one over there seems to be the fourth girl?"
"Um?"
As soon as she heard her rival, Sheng Rulan immediately put down everything she was doing and looked up.
Sure enough, under the peach blossom tree in the distance, there was an enchanting and pretentious figure standing.
At least, in Sheng Rulan's eyes, that's how it was.
"Huh? It seems to be Mo Lan?"
Ru Lan looked at the figure in the distance and was a little surprised: "What is Mo Lan going to do? Why are you so sneaky?"
As Mo Lan's enemy, Ru Lan knew the other party very well. When she saw the other party's strange movements, she immediately discovered the gist of it.
"Huh~"
Seeing Ru Lan diverting her attention, Minglan immediately breathed a sigh of relief and became much more relaxed.
"Xiao Tao, go quickly!"
Minglan knew what Xiaotao meant, so she thought of sneaking away while Rulan wasn't paying attention.
"Eh? Mo Lan is going to the front hall?"
But Ru Lan in front was still looking at the direction Mo Lan was walking, constantly guessing in her mind. Not to mention, Ru Lan really knew Mo Lan, but she guessed a little bit in a short while.
"Girl, Miss Six is leaving soon!"
Seeing that Minglan's master and servant were about to leave, Rulan's maid Magpie immediately reminded her master in a low voice.
"Ah? Sixth sister, you are not allowed to leave!"
Rulan came back to her senses, grabbed Minglan's arm, and said sweetly and willfully: "Good sister, don't leave yet!"
"Why don't we follow him together first and see what Mo Lan is going to do?"
"Ah? No!" Minglan couldn't escape, so she could only refuse pitifully: "The fourth sister went to the front hall where guests are entertained. It's not allowed for us girls to go there privately!"
"Um?"
Rulan put on a fierce face and insisted on going her own way: "I don't care, just come with me!"
"At most...at most I don't want you to make lamb soup!"
"Just come with me!"
"Ah? Fifth sister, this... this can't work..."
Although Minglan resisted so much that she stuttered, in the end she still let Rulan drag her away.
