Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!

Sheng Hong looked down at her, his face full of confusion: "It's you? Why did you go to stop that bitch from the Zhu family?"

Lin Qinshuang: "Just as my second brother said, this Zhu is a disaster. If the lady just lets her go, who knows what she might say outside. I asked the Zhou family to settle her down. My original intention was to shut her up, comfort her, and then find her a legitimate job so that she would be in our hands in the future and would not cause any trouble. But I didn't expect this vicious woman to be so cunning... She has caused my brother Feng so much trouble..." As she spoke, she started crying again.

The eldest lady gnashed her teeth and cursed, "The decision to release the people was discussed between me and the master. How dare you interfere? Besides, is there any need for you, a concubine, to interfere in Zhu's affairs? I think you just want to use that bitch to frame Changbai!" Mother Liu couldn't stop her and sighed.

Seeing that she had successfully provoked a fight, Lin Qinshuang cried even more bitterly: "Madam, I swear to God! I am just a concubine, how dare I frame my second brother? I just want that bitch to shut up. I have a poor background, no vision and no means, so I can only think of these methods! What's more, I used my own private money to settle Zhu, and I did so much without asking for credit in front of the Lord and the Queen Mother. I really just hope that everything will go smoothly for our Sheng family!"

Sheng Hong was upset when he heard Wang Ruofu scolding "a concubine". Seeing Lin Qinshuang crying, he leaned over to help her up. His voice softened a little as he asked, "If that's the case, why didn't you explain it to your husband earlier?"

Lin Qinshuang stood up next to him and said hesitantly, "I wanted to hold the person down and not cause any trouble, but when I heard that it was Brother Sheng who went up to find her, I was so worried that I immediately went to report to my master. I just wanted my master to discipline my brother at home, and I didn't think about much else. My master, I really am only doing this for the good of the children at home, and I have no selfish motives!" Then she threw herself on Sheng Hong's chest and burst into tears.

The eldest lady was stunned and cursed, "Oh! Did you see a ghost in broad daylight? Your own son, who you raised by your side, is visiting a prostitute, and you, as a young wife, are still feeling wronged? You concubines, maids, and bastards in this house are really resourceful!"

Sheng Hong could no longer bear it and shouted, "Who are you calling a concubine, a maid, or a bastard?"

The lady then remembered that Sheng Hong himself was the illegitimate son of a concubine, and thought to herself that it was terrible, but the words had already been said, and it was too late to say anything now. She could only stand there and catch her breath.

Mother Liu hurried forward to hold the eldest lady back and said, "The eldest lady is so angry about Brother Feng that she is talking nonsense."

Changbai also stepped forward to support the lady, and said with concern: "Mother is too worried, your son will help you go back to your room to rest."

Out of consideration for Changbai, Sheng Hong stopped arguing with Wang Ruofu and let them help the person back to the room. He then picked up Lin Qinshuang, who had fainted from crying, and carried her back to Linqi Pavilion.

……

When Mama Fang reported the matter to the old lady, Minglan listened in silence.

It was a good game of chess, but the lady ruined it again.

She knew that Changfeng had been raised by Lin Qinshuang to be lustful and frivolous, and that Zhu Manniang was a leech that specifically sucked the blood of rich young men. Once she saw Changfeng, she would definitely use all her tricks to take him down.

Minglan pretended to accidentally reveal the news to Changfeng at first, hoping that Changfeng would break into the firewood room. In this way, if something happened, it would not only punish Lin Qige, but also keep the matter in Sheng Mansion from being seen by outsiders. Lin Qinshuang was busy saving herself and had no time to think about Wei Xiaoniang and Changdong.

Unexpectedly, Chang Feng did not have the courage to break into Wei Ruixuan's woodshed, and waited until the Sheng Mansion released the people before he dared to take action.

It was a pity that Lin Qige failed to get what he wanted, and instead of dragging Changbai down, Changfeng got into trouble. If the eldest lady had not been instigated by Lin Qinshuang to say "concubine, maidservant, bastard's son", this time Lin Qige would have been locked up for a few more months.

Now, Sheng Hong began to feel sorry for Lin Qinshuang again, and estimated that he would release Chang Feng soon.

The old lady had intended to teach Minglan how to handle these inner house affairs, and she did not let Minglan avoid it when Fang Mama talked about it. Seeing that her little granddaughter seemed to be thinking about something after listening, she asked, "Ming'er, what are you thinking about?"

Minglan blinked: "Thinking about what to eat tonight?"

The old lady laughed: "This child, the family is in a hurry, but she still thinks about food! Let me ask you, if I ask you to handle this matter on behalf of the lady, what would you do?"

Minglan thought seriously for a while and said, "Father said at the beginning that Third Brother was raised by Lin Xiaoniang, and the crime was committed by the people of Lin Qi Pavilion. Why waste time talking about it when they can just be punished?"

The old lady didn't expect her to come up with a perfect solution. When she heard this, she felt that it was simple and to the point. She nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, it is so simple. Even a child like you can explain it clearly, but those confused people can't understand it, and those who understand it are pretending to be confused. Hey, my Ming'er, you must keep your eyes open in the future."

Of course Minglan had to keep her eyes open, because she soon received a gift from Brother Changbai - a pile of various colored ink sticks and rice paper.

Xiao Tao held the heavy basket, and veins popped up on her neck. "With so much ink and paper, are you going to let the girl write until she goes blind?"

Minglan understood Changbai's intention. He was not only thanking her for helping to trick Zhu Manniang, but also pointing her to focus on serious matters. She said, "Silly Xiaotao, Brother Changbai is worried about me. Zhuang Xuejiu always said that my handwriting is not good, so Brother bought me such good paper and ink, asking me to practice my handwriting well!"

Xiao Tao: "But if this happens, it will be very hard for the girl to practice calligraphy."

Minglan: "If you want to master a skill, you have to go through thousands of trials and tribulations. Look at the blacksmiths in the blacksmith shop. If it weren't for the craftsmen who hammered and tempered the iron, how could they make such beautiful and solid objects? Iron can only be made into a useful object after being hammered. So, we must not only work hard to endure these hardships, but also thank the people who tempered us. Like my second brother, Zhuang Xuejiu, and my grandmother, if it weren't for them, we wouldn't even be qualified to be on the shelf, and could only lie in the corner as a piece of waste."

Xiao Tao seemed to understand something: "So, it turns out that the girl is a piece of iron?"

Minglan burst out laughing and said, "Yes, I am a piece of iron, your daughter, and I am here to beat you, a silly little peach!"

Xiao Tao didn't understand what was going on, so she started laughing too.

The old lady and her maids who were listening to their conversation behind the screen all showed expressions of relief.

……

At night, Chang Feng screamed in pain in the ancestral hall. He was weak to begin with, and was really frightened when Sheng Hong kicked the door. Then he was beaten several times, and his body was covered with wounds. This was the first time in his life that he had been disciplined so harshly, and he suffered great trauma both physically and mentally.

The servants guarding outside the ancestral hall all obeyed Dong Rong's orders. They also knew that the biological girl inside was the apple of their master's eye. When they saw Chang Fengkuai fainting from pain, they dared not delay any longer and hurried to Linqi Pavilion to report.
