Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!

Chapter 209 Dinner (4) [Thanks to "linlin655" for the continuous monthly ticket support! ]

Aunt Kang pointed at Minglan and yelled, "You little bitch, you're trying to trick me!"

Minglan didn't answer, but Hualan asked loudly: "Aunt, you are so cruel! Why did you want to hurt my mother? She is your own sister!"

Aunt Kang stepped back while replying: "She told me herself that she and your father were not on good terms, and asked me to find a way to help her!"

Hua Lan: "So you gave her poison to kill my father?"

Aunt Kang: "I didn't give her poison! She was just too careless and that's why she killed someone!"

Hua Lan: "You are still trying to make excuses even now!"

Aunt Kang had retreated to a window at this time. She suddenly turned around, pushed the window open, and jumped out on the stool where the vase was placed in front of the window.

Several people in the house shouted at the same time: "She's trying to escape!"

Minglan sneered: "Does she think she can get away?"

Sure enough, in a short while, Changdong and the guards around him took Aunt Kang back to the house and tied her hands and feet.

Aunt Kang yelled, "Sheng Changdong, how dare you tie me up? I'm a noble lady from an official family, how dare you tie me up!"

Changdong didn't waste any time talking to her. He kicked her into the house and said to Changbai and the others, "Brothers and sisters, just interrogate her. I'll be guarding outside. Not even a fly can fly out."

Changbai said "Okay!" with satisfaction, and Hualan Rulan also looked at him with gratitude.

The brothers and sisters turned their attention to Wang Ruoyu again. She knew that she had gotten out of her depth this time, so she suddenly said to Wang Ruofu, "Third sister, I am your elder sister, and we both have the surname Wang. Are you going to let these Sheng guys bully me like this?"

Wang Ruofu cried and laughed, "Big sister, when you hurt me, did you remember that I am your sister and my last name is Wang?"

"I'm not helping you!"

"I just want to reconcile with you, I never thought of taking your life!"

"I didn't mean to kill Sheng Hong, you just used the wrong amount!"

"But my elder sister told me that the medicine will never kill you."

"I never said that."

"you said before!"

"I don't!"

The two sisters were caught up in a quarrel. Changbai said, "We'll know the truth after we try the steward Qi. Aunt Kang, if you tell the truth now, maybe your sentence can be reduced later."

Wang Ruoyu pointed at Changbai in horror: "What sentence? You want to report to the police? Don't you want your own future? Don't you care about the reputation of these girls?"

Changbai: "If you don't report it to the authorities, then we can settle it privately. But do you think you can escape the blame this way?"

Minglan: "I guess Aunt Kang thinks that since Uncle Wang and the old lady have returned to Beijing, she has someone to back her up."

Wang Ruoyu: "That's right! My brother has returned to Beijing. He and mother will support me. If you dare to touch a hair on my head, we, the Wang family, will make you pay with your lives!"

Rulan couldn't help but curse: "You killed my father and we didn't ask you to pay with your life, but you come to take our lives first?"

Minglan: "What a pity, Aunt Kang, you've already married into the Kang family. Even if we want to find someone, we won't go to the Wang family, we'll definitely look for Uncle Kang. Do you think Uncle Kang will turn against our Sheng family for you?"

Wang Ruoyu's expression collapsed.

Hua Lan angrily cursed: "Uncle Kang is already annoyed with you, and now that he knows you killed someone, it's a perfect reason to divorce you!"

Wang Ruoyu: "Shut up, bitch!"

Hua Lan: "Old bastard! In the past, you relied on your status as an elder to come to my house again and again to act like a big shot. We respected you and called you aunt, but you didn't act like an elder at all. You always cursed us sisters in private, and we endured it for our mother. Now, you tricked my mother into killing my father, and you want to humiliate us brothers and sisters in the Sheng family. Do you really think there is no one left in the Sheng family?"

Rulan said with tears in her eyes: "I must settle accounts with you this time!"

Wang Ruofu saw the children united together, and she felt happy and regretful. She was happy about the children's filial piety and regretted her own stupidity... If she had not listened to Wang Ruoyu's nagging, she, the eldest lady of the Sheng family, would have lived a very happy life in the second half of her life...

Wang Ruofu covered her face and burst into tears.

The door knocked twice. Minglan went to open it, took the tray with the writing brush, inkstone, paper and ink from Changdong, closed the door again, and then turned to Hualan: "Big sister, you are the best writer among us sisters. Today, you will be the one to write the confession for the eldest lady."

Hualan nodded, wiped her tears and took the plate.

Rulan walked over and said, "I'll grind it for you, big sister."

Minglan walked up to Changbai and said, "Second brother, now that things have come to this, why don't we do as Fifth Sister said and settle accounts with Aunt Kang to see how many good things she has done to the Madam over the years."

Wang Ruoyu: "Sheng Minglan, don't take this opportunity to frame me!"

Changbai: "Since my aunt refuses to speak, then let mother speak."

Wang Ruofu looked at Changbai in pain.

Changbai: "Mother, today is your only chance. Do you really want to take all the blame for your aunt?"

“No, no,” Wang Ruofu cried until her eyes were red and swollen, “I…I…”

She just couldn't face it.

Many disasters in the past were caused by Wang Ruoyu's instigation. When she was doing things, she only thought about making money and collecting profits, but never thought that one day she would tell these things to her children in person... How could she tell all her ugly deeds to her children?

Minglan: "Madam, you should understand that the clearer you explain, the more likely you will be able to clear yourself of the charges."

Wang Ruoyu: "Your whole family has teamed up to slander me!"

Minglan took a few steps forward and stuffed Wang Ruoyu's mouth with a handkerchief: "Aunt, you should take a rest."

Wang Ruofu spoke slowly under Changbai's silent gaze, from lending money at high interest, seizing people's land to selling property privately, accepting bribes privately... one by one, any matter that was slightly out of the ordinary, Aunt Kang was always behind it.

Roughly speaking, in the past twenty years, Aunt Kang has cheated Wang Ruofu of no less than 30,000 taels of silver.

To be precise, no less than 30,000 taels were embezzled from the Sheng family's public account.

The children of the Sheng family were dumbfounded, especially when they heard that Wang Ruofu had accepted bribes behind Sheng Hong's back. Changbai was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up: "Mother, you are confused! If this matter is exposed, father's official reputation will be ruined!"

Wang Ruofu said with tears in her eyes: "At that time, it was my eldest sister who said... that the person who sent the money was a distant relative of their Kang family... and that they would not tell this to anyone..."

Changbai was heartbroken: "Father thought that the Kang family was helped by his brother-in-law, but others thought that father helped for money. Have you ever thought that if father fails or messes up, won't people report the Sheng family's bribery to the government office?"

Wang Ruofu: "They are relatives of the Kang family... they won't..."

Several people looked at Wang Ruofu in disappointment. Hua Lan couldn't help but said, "Mother, you are really too confused!"

Changbai: "When this is over, I will personally take the money and return it to them. Just tell them it was my father's last wish."

With a plop, Rulan's tears dripped into the ink. She cried as she ground the ink, "A good family was ruined by such a vicious woman..."

Minglan walked over to her and wiped her tears: "Fifth sister, now that everything has been discussed, as long as we get Aunt Kang to sign and confess her guilt, and then send her to the inner prison, from now on, there will be no more such messes in our family."

Wang Ruoyu screamed excitedly.

Minglan: "Aunt, it's useless for you to yell. After we have tried Manager Qi and all the evidence against you has been confirmed, we will ask Uncle Kang to sign your confession. Based on your care and love for Uncle Kang over the years, I think Uncle Kang will agree to it happily."

When Hualan and Changbai heard this, their eyes lit up first, then they thought of something and frowned secretly. Rulan turned her head to look at Minglan: "Sixth sister... when did you become so powerful..."

After both deception and forced confession, Minglan indeed showed an extraordinary side in front of her brothers and sisters today.

Minglan said with some sadness: "For my father, I can tear Aunt Kang apart myself."

"I see." Rulan's eyes lit up and she nodded firmly, "Right! Me too!"

Hualan and Changbai's brows relaxed quietly.

Just at this moment, there was another knock on the door, and this time it was Changbai who opened the door.

Outside the door, Changdong was holding a wooden tray with several confessions with fingerprints on them.

With tears in his eyes, Chang Dong said, "Manager Qi confessed."

Changbai pulled Changdong into the house, closed the door, and personally took the confession to read.

Wang Ruofu: "How is it? What did the thief say?"

Chang Dong's eyes were filled with tears: "Father...Father really was poisoned to death."

Changbai stared at Aunt Kang fiercely: "Fly agaric!!! (xun4, red umbrella, white pole, this pole)"
