At the same time, Sheng Changquan, who came to look for his sister, also saw this scene from a distance.
"What are you doing, Fifth Sister?"
Seeing Ru Lan's domineering behavior, Sheng Changquan immediately frowned, feeling that it was a bit too much.
"It seems that I still have to find a chance to talk to my second brother!"
"Don't come here, you always let me get bullied!"
After all, Minglan is his sister, so Sheng Changquan is always closer to Minglan in his heart.
Although there are occasional small disputes between sisters, Sheng Changquan does not want his sister to be wronged all the time. However, if he wants to change this situation, he has nothing to say. The only way is Thanks to the second brother Changbai.
Of course, it would be best if the eldest sister was at home. Sheng Hualan would take care of Sheng Rulan.
"I'd better follow up and take a look. At the very least, I have to take the fifth sister away first, so that she won't have to hang around her all the time." Sheng Changquan thought.
So, he quickly followed and walked towards the front.
…
Vestibule.
The countess of Yongchang Hou Mansion is coming to visit with her sixth son.
However, they were not the only ones. Qi Heng, the youngest son of Duke Qi, also happened to come to the Sheng family today carrying gifts to thank the Sheng family for allowing Qi Heng to attend the school under the name of Mr. Zhuang.
After all, the Lord of Heaven and Earth is his master, but this master is also extremely noble.
In the room, Sheng Hong and his wife were chatting with Mrs. Wu from the Earl of Yongchang's Mansion and saying some polite words. Faintly, Sheng Hong and his wife showed some kindness to Mrs. Wu.
In fact, the relationship between the Earl of Yongchang and the Sheng family is not close. Mrs. Wu has only met her once or twice in Mrs. Wang's social circle, and the Sheng Hong couple's overtures to her are not intended to cling to Yongchang. The count's wealth was simply due to his desire to have a good relationship with Mrs. Wu.
Gein, Mrs. Wu of Earl's Palace of Yongchang is a bold and generous person. She is the most enthusiastic lady in Tokyo who is a matchmaker. Under her hands, more than a dozen marriages have been successful!
In this case, how could Sheng Hong and his wife not be interested?
This time, Mrs. Wu came to visit just because she was passing by playing polo and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to visit Mrs. Sheng. Her most important purpose was something else, and it was not easy to tell outsiders.
"Is the old lady feeling well?"
Mrs. Wu greeted her politely and said, "I should have greeted the old lady in person, but just now I heard that the old lady was reciting sutras in the Buddhist hall, but it was not easy to disturb her."
"Haha, what are you talking about!" Mrs. Wang smiled and said with enthusiasm: "You are very valuable if you have this kind of intention. The old lady will blame you!"
"Yes! Mother is the most reasonable person, of course!" Sheng Hong also said at the side.
Because she had a rest today and Sheng Hong had no official duties, he had time to entertain guests with Mrs. Wang.
"Haha, that's good!" Mrs. Wu also smiled and started to say something else, as if she wanted to find out some news about the old lady's old friend.
On the other side, Mrs. Wu's sixth son, Liang Han, was chatting happily with Sheng Changbai and Qi Heng.
"I wonder what the curriculum is in your school?"
Liang Han asked this question because he saw Qi Heng's figure.
In Bianliang City, Tokyo, Qi Heng, the Duke of Qi, is a very famous figure. In addition to his handsome appearance and noble background, the most talked about and admired thing is his hard work and perseverance!
He is a child of an aristocratic family, but he is unwilling to be ordinary. He would rather study hard for decades, just because he wants to take the imperial examination and take the most honorable and glorious road!
After all, most of the children of meritorious families entered the court in secret. Therefore, these guys were not favored by those Qingliu families who studied hard and passed the exams, and were regarded as inferior to others.
"Sit in class at 2:00 p.m., and have one lesson every five days." Sheng Changbai answered truthfully.
"You're going to sit in court at a quarter past two?" Liang Han couldn't believe it: "Young Master, how can you get up?"
His words were full of the arrogance of a child of aristocratic family. Sheng Changbai raised his eyelids, but he didn't take it seriously. He still had a serious face.
"Ha!" Qi Heng smiled lightly: "The Sheng family has a younger sister, and she is also..."
"Um?"
Sheng Changbai turned his head and his eyes were fixed!
"Who?" Liang Han was confused.
"Well……"
Qi Heng knew he had made a mistake, so he picked up the cup on the table, took a sip, and then changed the topic: "Actually, from this moment on, I am also in trouble."
Although Liang Han was a little curious about what Qi Heng said just now, he didn't ask any further questions. After all, it was a matter of a boudoir woman, and it was really difficult for him to ask questions as an outsider, not to mention that doing so would offend Qi Heng, the future young master. Ye, and besides, he came to make friends with Qi Heng, not to antagonize him.
"Brother Qi, brother Qi!"
Liang Han couldn't help but exclaimed: "You and I are descendants of aristocratic families, how can we be willing to work so hard?"
"Alas~"
"I really can't compare to you, brother Qi. I think I'd better wait for Yin Feng!"
"Brother Liang, thank you!"
"..."
Not to mention the conversation between Qi Heng and Liang Han, Sheng Changbai finally lowered his eyes and put down the scrutiny just now.
"What the young master said just now must have been a slip of the tongue..."
Sheng Changbai thought silently.
…
On the other side, Mo Lan dressed up in a fancy way because she wanted to meet Mrs. Wu and Liu Lang of the Liang family who came to the palace today, so that she could choose a home for her future. After all, Mo Lan was thinking about it at this time. The first husband-in-law candidate is still "her" brother Yuan Ruo.
Mo Lan secretly hid behind a screen at the back of the hall, secretly peeping at the foreign guests in front.
Among them, she looked emphatically at Mrs. Wu sitting above her, wanting to get to know her appearance, so as not to make any jokes if she didn't recognize her when they met in the future.
"Well, is that Liulang of the Liang family?"
"Doesn't it look good?"
After seeing Mrs. Wu, Mo Lan stared closely at Sheng Changbai's son, comparing the pros and cons.
"No matter how you look at it, I still think my brother Yuanruo is good!"
Mo Lan didn't say the last sentence, but made a comment in his heart.
Sudden!
"Ah!"
Just when Mo Lan was secretly intoxicated, a tiny sneer sounded.
"What are you doing, Fourth Sister?"
Rulan pulled Minglan and suddenly emerged from a turning door in the front hall, pointing at Molan, feeling proud that she had grasped the handle.
"How come the fourth sister doesn't know how to be reserved at all, so she hides here to spy on outsiders?"
"Could it be that this is what your little mother taught you?"
Ru Lan looked at Mo Lan's panicked look, and immediately felt happy!
As a result, a bright smile appeared on her face, and at the same time she was secretly proud: "I asked you to put on pretense all day long!"
"Now I've been caught!"
