Mother and daughter reborn and swap bodies, both of them went crazy

When Sheng Minmin heard this, she was just glad that Qingying did a good job and would not blame her for anything.

"I see. I didn't think of this at the time - cough, cough -

"Hurry up, you have done a great job. Not only will I not punish you, I will reward you--"

All she was thinking about was how to properly compensate those women and their families.

Money must be given, but if a large sum of money is given at once, it may not be a good thing for a poor person to suddenly become rich.

I thought it would be better to give him some money first, and then secretly ask the village head to take good care of him and help him if he needs help in the future.

200 taels of silver could buy 10 acres of good farmland, build a good house, and still have a few dozen taels left over.

When the tenant farmers have their own land and good houses, their lives will become more and more promising.

She didn't expect the perpetrator's family to make a fuss. If the news that those women were raped were spread everywhere, it would go against her original intention of compensating the victims.

Qingying had made up for this matter very well. After thinking about it, she whispered to Xiangxiang.

"Bring me my carved red pear wood jewelry box."

For the master, having servants around him dressed decently is a way to bring honor to himself.

Huang Yaning is rich and is particularly concerned about his reputation.

Therefore, in the past, the second-class maids in this courtyard had four new sets of clothes every quarter, two more sets than ordinary servants.

The first-class maids were given 6 new sets of clothes, all made of the finest fabrics.

A respectable maid, even if she dresses well, still needs some jewelry to match her appearance so as not to be looked down upon.

Therefore, Huang Yaning had a special jewelry box for rewarding servants.

Soon Xiangxiang came over with the jewelry box for reward, put it on the couch and opened it.

This box has three layers. The first layer is filled with earrings and hairpins, the second layer is filled with necklaces and rings, and the third layer is filled with bracelets.

All the jewelry are made of silver, gold, jade, coral, pearls... and look very exquisite.

It sparkled brightly under the light, and Sheng Minmin was a little dazed for a moment.

The jewelry that Huang Yaning rewarded her servants with were so exquisite, but the jewelry prepared for her in her previous life were all rustic, the kind that only old women would like.

She was mocked and ridiculed many times by the servants in the mansion.

Moreover, it was only sent once.

Later, some of the jewelry was stolen by servants, and some was exchanged for food by her...

Thinking of this, Sheng Minmin suppressed the slight sourness that arose in her heart. Huang Yaning had never been her mother.

It wasn’t like that in the previous life, and it won’t be like that in this life!

She looked around and pointed to a pair of jade bracelets with the best water content on the third layer.

"The pair of jade bracelets will be given to you. You can also pick out a jade hairpin, two pairs of earrings, and a few agate rings..."

Qingying is her right-hand man, so she must benefit from him secretly while also maintaining her dignity in public.

After thinking for a while, he pointed to a gorgeous gold hairpin and a red coral necklace.

"Xiangxiang, I'll give you the hairpin, and the red coral necklace to Qingchi..."

After all the busy work, it was time for dinner.

Sheng Minmin felt sorry for Qingying as she had traveled all the way, so she asked her to go down and rest early and come back tomorrow.

After having a bowl of yam porridge served by Xiangxiang, I went to bed early.

"Sheng Minmin, why did you come back? If you didn't come back you wouldn't die, and your child wouldn't die either...

"What a pity... you had to come back to seek death...

"You, break her hands and feet..."

Sheng Minmin heard Sheng Mingzhu's extremely vicious voice again, as if it was still in her ears.

Then there was the sound of her arms and kneecaps being smashed.

The smell of kerosene, the burning heat of the woodshed...

She struggled to crawl on the ground, crawling towards her child, but her child could no longer make any sound...

"lady--"

Xiangxiang saw that the lady’s face was covered with tears, the pillow was almost wet with tears, and her expression was extremely painful as if she was having a nightmare.

He quickly leaned over and gently shook the lady's shoulders, hoping to wake her up.

But when Xiangxiang just touched the lady's shoulder, she found that the lady screamed and sat up.

Xiangxiang met a pair of red eyes, like an evil ghost from hell demanding her life.

Xiangxiang's body stiffened, and at that moment her neck was strangled by the lady.

The lady sat directly on her and pinched her neck hard.

The lady's eyes were like an angry volcano erupting, and beneath the volcano was deep despair, like an abyss...

The emotion was so strong that for a moment, Xiangxiang even forgot the fear of death.

It was not until Qingying heard the noise and brought Qingchi over that he pulled the lady down.

Xiangxiang finally regained her breath and was gasping for air.

"Madam, what's wrong with you? Should I ask the palace doctor to come over..."

Qingying asked Sheng Minmin with concern and suggested calling the palace doctor.

Sheng Minmin woke up after a while. She didn't want to arouse Sheng Yong's suspicion, so she grabbed Qingying's hand and said, "No need to call the palace doctor—"

Seeing that everyone was looking at her worriedly, Sheng Minmin added something.

"I just had a nightmare. There's no need to call the court doctor. Xiangxiang, how are you?"

Xiang Xiang coughed twice, "Cough, cough——I am fine..."

His voice sounded a little hoarse, and there was a red mark around his neck.

As if afraid that people would not believe her, Xiangxiang stood up.

"Except for the strangeness in my throat, there is nothing wrong with me... I will just need to rest my throat for two days..."

Sheng Minmin felt very guilty when he saw her trying so hard to prove that she was fine.

During the past two days, Sheng Minmin had been resting from illness, and she dreamed of the scene before her death in her previous life...

That's why she was blinded by hatred and unconsciously strangled Xiangxiang's neck.

She rubbed her swollen temples.

"Qingying, send someone to Renxin Hall to invite a doctor over."

After a pause, he felt that he had to pretend to love Sheng Mingzhu a little so as not to arouse suspicion, and then he continued.

"When the doctor comes, take her to Begonia Garden to see Sixth Girl.

“Sixth girl has been suffering recently, so ask the doctor to prescribe more tonics for her. If there are any herbs she’s missing, just go to my pharmacy and get them. Come back to me after the doctor has finished examining her.

"Xiangxiang, go back and change your clothes and have a good rest. You don't have to come over to serve me. I'll ask someone to call you when the doctor comes—"

This time Xiangxiang didn't refuse and walked out.

Sheng Minmin's body was almost soaked with cold sweat. Qingying helped Sheng Minmin take a bath, and only after she put on the warm clothes did she feel a little more comfortable.

Because she had specifically instructed that the young masters and young ladies were not allowed to come and pay their respects to her while she was ill, for fear that they might spread her illness, the mornings in Mudan Courtyard had been very quiet recently.

After dinner, the doctor from Renxintang came over.
