"My daughter has met her father!"
Minglan walked quickly to Sheng Hong's side, suppressing her inner excitement and trying to look calm.
Because she knew that Sheng Hong particularly emphasized the rules of the children in the family and believed that ladies should remain graceful and calm outside and should not reveal their emotions to others at will.
The more famous a woman is, the more likely she is to do this. If Sheng Hong wants to improve the foundation of the Sheng family, he naturally has to be so strict with his own girls.
Speaking of which, except for Ru Lan, all the girls in the Sheng family did an excellent job.
Needless to say, Hua Lan was a girl trained by Mrs. Sheng, so she was naturally able to do this. The same was true for Minglan behind her.
Among the girls, only Mo Lan was educated under Lin Sushuang. However, with her mother's "high rank" skills, Mo Lan could also do it.
Of course, Mo Lan's "revelation of true feelings" from time to time is an exception. In Ru Lan's words, it is just a pretentious and deliberate gesture on her part.
But in fact, if Mo Lan really didn't want to show his feelings, outsiders would never be able to tell.
Mo Lan's palace is naturally rich. Just seeing how she can charm those so-called romantic talents, it is already obvious that she has some talent.
"Daddy, be safe!"
Minglan looked at Sheng Hong's generous figure and bowed down to give him a blessing, her eyes full of admiration.
"Haha, it's a good tomorrow, get up quickly!"
"Let daddy take a good look at you!"
Sheng Hong waved his sleeves and hurriedly stepped forward to help his little daughter. At this time, a rare feeling of fatherly love surged in his heart.
He looked lovingly at Minglan, who had grown a lot and had become somewhat graceful, with gentle eyes.
"Tomorrow!"
"I've really suffered a lot from you these past years!"
"I asked you to follow your grandmother and stay with Youyang for so long!"
Sheng Hong naturally knew what kind of place Youyang was. He also knew that although Youyang was the ancestral home of the Sheng family, it was indeed just a remote town.
Not to mention Bianjing, even Dingzhou where Mo Lan and Ru Lan went to was far behind.
However, because Old Mrs. Sheng wanted to go back to Youyang for a visit, and Minglan also needed to leave the capital to avoid the palace draft, so it was not only for the old lady to have someone to take care of her, but also for Minglan to have someone to take care of her. , their grandfather and grandson set off back to Youyang together to take care of each other.
However, although this is the best of both worlds, compared to Rulan and Molan on the other side, Minglan obviously suffers.
In this regard, even a Shanda person who has been partial to his armpit will inevitably feel a little distressed for his little daughter.
After all, Minglan was well-behaved, sensible, and a very good child. Sheng Hong would feel a little sorry for her if he occasionally thought about this in his spare time.
As for why Mo Lan and Ru Lan were not allowed to follow Mrs. Sheng back to Youyang, he didn't need to say anything. Naturally, everyone in the third room was not happy.
The first one is that Mrs. Sheng is not happy because she does not want to have to train those girls when she returns to Youyang. The second one is that Mo Lan and Ru Lan are definitely not willing either.
The two of them are typically afraid of hardship, and they simply can't stay in the countryside in Youyang!
Not to mention, they were not close to the old lady to begin with, and they were more intimidated than respectful towards the old lady Sheng.
As for the third one, their respective biological mothers, Lin Sushuang and Mrs. Wang, would naturally not be happy to send their girls to that remote place in Youyang.
The former felt that he couldn't find a good partner there, while the latter simply didn't like Youyang and found it boring and his girl couldn't stay there.
Therefore, in the end, Minglan went there with Mrs. Sheng.
…
"Dad, my daughter is living a good life in Youyang's hometown and has not suffered much at all."
Minglan shook her head and comforted Sheng Hong: "Besides, my daughter made many friends and learned a lot in her hometown!"
"Like Sister Pinlan in my uncle's family, she introduced me to a lot of interesting things, and I benefited a lot!"
Minglan took Pinlan as an example, the purpose was to make her father feel more at ease.
However, when he heard Minglan talking about Pinlan, Sheng Hong's expression suddenly changed and he asked, "Oh?"
"Tomorrow, how are you doing at your uncle's house?"
"Has anything happened?"
As if thinking of something, Sheng Hong suddenly frowned and asked, "Why did I hear a letter from your uncle saying that your sister Shulan has separated from Renhe?"
"I remember, isn't Shulan's husband a famous child prodigy in Youyang?"
"How could the two of them end up in such an embarrassing situation?"
Because Sheng Wei was concerned about his face, he did not go into details in the letter, but simply communicated with Sheng Hong to let him know that such an incident had happened at home.
"Dad, I know this, but I don't blame Sister Shulan!"
Seeing that Sheng Hong's expression was wrong and he seemed to be blaming Shulan, Minglan couldn't help but speak quickly and started to speak for Shulan.
"Yeah?"
Sheng Hong raised his thick eyebrows, as if he didn't believe it.
"Dad, grandma also knows about this!"
As a last resort, Minglan had no choice but to move out of Old Mrs. Sheng's house and said, "Besides, she was the one who directed my brother to complete this matter!"
"Oh, wait!"
"Has this kid Chang Quan also intervened?"
Sheng Hong suddenly realized that things here were a little complicated.
"This little beast!"
Sheng Hong was a little unhappy: "He is just a child, what can he do to help?"
"It's just playing the piano randomly!"
Although Mrs. Sheng was watching and the matter had been resolved satisfactorily, Sheng Hong still felt a little scared!
You know, it is not easy to get involved in this kind of thing. If you are not careful, you can easily become someone else inside and outside. However, Sheng Changquan is still young and will still have a bright future to work hard for in the future. If he loses his life because of this now, If his literary name is stained, it will have a huge impact on his future!
As soon as he thought of this, Sheng Hong became even more angry and wished he could immediately take action and give Sheng Changquan "fatherly love"!
"Dad, actually, Sister Shulan..."
"Silence!"
Before Minglan could defend Sheng Changquan, she was suddenly interrupted by Sheng Hong.
He looked around and found that there were many outsiders at the scene, so he stopped Minglan's words and said, "You should wait until you get home to discuss this with me!"
"At this time, it's not appropriate to say more!"
Sheng Hong looked around again and continued to ask: "By the way, where is your brother Changquan?"
"Where has this kid gone?"
"Why don't you come over to meet your father?"
After all, he felt sorry for his youngest son. Sheng Hong just said "little beast" and then couldn't help but change the title.
He stood there and searched around but still couldn't find Sheng Changquan. For a moment, he felt a little anxious and started to ask Minglan.
"Brother?"
Hearing Sheng Hong inquire about Sheng Changquan's whereabouts, Minglan couldn't help but smile secretly in her heart, feeling happy that her younger brother had a high status in the heart of her father Sheng Hong.
"Dad, I'm still dealing with some chores for this trip!"
Minglan glanced at Sheng Hong, who looked a little anxious, and said, "My brother told me before that he wanted me to send my grandmother home first, and he won't be able to follow her until later!"
"Well, that's it!"
Sheng Hong's brows relaxed, but he let go of some of the tension in his heart.
Just now, he was really afraid that something would happen to Sheng Changquan along the way. As a result, he didn't have time to come back, which made Sheng Hong feel uneasy and uneasy.
However, after hearing the news from Minglan, Sheng Hong immediately felt relieved.
"That's good! That's good!"
After Sheng Hong murmured a few words, he changed his tone and said directly: "In that case, you can go back home with your father tomorrow!"
"As for this kid Chang Quan, let him rush back on his own!"
Sheng Hong said something to Minglan angrily, competing with Sheng Changquan like a child.
However, what is somewhat gratifying is that Sheng Hong's "competition" is only a one-sided contest, and Sheng Changquan still knows nothing about it.
"Yes, Daddy!"
Minglan covered her mouth and chuckled, but agreed.
But after Minglan agreed, Sheng Hong suddenly turned his head and ordered the Changsui behind him: "Dongrong, you guys stay here for now. When the seventh young master comes, you will obey his orders." Tell him to handle the matters in his hands properly!"
"Besides, when you meet Young Master Seven, tell him to go home quickly. I still have some things to ask him!"
"Yes, my lord!"
Hearing Sheng Hong's arrangement, Dongrong hurriedly took the few servants Sheng Hong always used and responded in unison, then bowed to Sheng Hong together and watched their father and daughter leave.
At the same time, several of them also walked towards the boat by the water, preparing to meet Sheng Changquan.
"Okay, Minglan, let's go!"
After leaving behind a few capable servants, Sheng Hong waved his sleeves and took Minglan back with him.
…
And just as Sheng Hong and his daughter were about to leave, they were not far away.
A place not far from the pier but hard to find.
A man wearing a sky blue brocade robe stood there, looking secretly at this side.
There are a lot of people there, and most of them are small traders. They are businessmen who specialize in selling services to earn money by selling hard work at the dock.
Because there are a lot of people coming and going on this side of the pier, it is extremely difficult for this person to be discovered by the other side if he is hiding here.
Moreover, this man has a handsome appearance and a good temperament. He is obviously not a filthy and dirty person. He is hiding here for some reason.
As the saying goes, the three views follow the five senses. Since this person has a dignified appearance, he is not a bad person.
What's more, this person is actually the eldest son of the Duke of Qi, Qi Heng, the young Duke of Qi.
Several years have passed, and Qi Heng has matured a lot.
At this time, Qi Heng has changed a lot compared to what he was before. Not only is his appearance no longer childish, but his temperament is also faintly more tenacious and vicissitudes of life.
Of course, Qi Heng is still not disabled, and he is still as beautiful as ever. In fact, his slender figure has a more mature and charming temperament at this time, like a fine wine that has been stored in the cellar for many years. With less precipitation and more background, it becomes even more charming.
Otherwise, the head of Jiacheng County of Prince Yong's Palace would not have accommodated Qi Duke's Palace in every possible way for him, and transferred many benefits of Prince Yong's Palace to the Qi family.
If Prince Yong and Princess Yong weren't the only legitimate daughters who truly loved them, if anyone else, even the crown prince, dared to act like this in Prince Yong's palace, his bones would have been killed by Prince Yong long ago. Give me a discount!
"Sixth sister..."
Seeing Minglan following Sheng Hong step by step, Qi Heng murmured to himself.
"grown up……"
"Sixth sister...you have grown up too..."
Qi Heng stared at Minglan not far away without blinking, watching her walk away step by step until she reached the Sheng family's carriage, and then watched her being helped by Sheng Hong to get into the carriage and put it down. The curtain finally left slowly bit by bit...
The light in Qi Heng's eyes seemed to keep moving with Minglan's movements. When Minglan finally got on the carriage and left, Qi Heng's heart seemed to leave with her.
In fact, it was not a coincidence that Qi Heng came here today, but that he had been paying attention to the Sheng family.
It can be said that since Minglan returned to Youyang, Qi Heng has sent people to stay beside Sheng Mansion, hoping to receive news about Minglan as soon as possible.
His purpose is also very simple, just to see Minglan again.
Speaking of which, Qi Heng was able to meet Minglan in the first place so smoothly. He had no one else to thank but Sheng Changbai.
Although the Duke of Qi's government was quite powerful, it was simply overthinking to quietly place people in the Sheng family. Therefore, the fact that Qi Heng was able to get the news so quickly was actually secretly passed on to him by Sheng Changbai.
Sheng Changbai knew about Qi Heng and Minglan. At the same time, he also knew the reason why Qi Heng betrayed Minglan in the first place.
Although Qi Heng was right to do this, as Minglan's brother, Sheng Changbai didn't think Qi Heng was qualified to get close to Minglan or his own sister.
Therefore, when Sheng Changbai discovered Qi Heng's little tricks, he immediately went to the door and exposed them, and strongly asked Qi Heng to respect himself and stop approaching his little sister as a married man!
Facing the angry classmates, Qi Heng did not defend himself, but kept his face pale and remained silent.
However, even if Qi Heng reacted like this, Sheng Changbai still ruthlessly refused to waver in his decision and asked him to make a promise not to harass his sister again. Otherwise, the relationship between the two would be severed and they would never see each other again!
In this regard, Qi Heng finally spoke.
