Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!
Chapter 25 Monkhood
Sheng Hong had already lost most of his anger in the gentle embrace of Lin Qinshuang. When he heard the report from the people in the ancestral hall, he immediately ordered someone to bring Chang Feng back to Linqi Pavilion.
Chang Feng lay on the bed groaning, alternately awake and dizzy.
Sheng Hong invited a doctor to treat his injuries and personally advised him by his bedside. Chang Feng cried and begged his father for forgiveness. Lin Qinshuang confessed that she was a bad parent. Molan also blamed herself for not advising her brother. The four of them, father and son, mother and daughter, hugged each other and were very affectionate. Everything returned to normal.
On the second day, Sheng Hong sent Dong Rong to the hotel to look for Zhu Manniang and her siblings, but he couldn't find them.
The innkeeper said, "The brother and sister ran away last night. Not only did they not pay for the room, they also took away a set of tea sets in the room! It's really unlucky!"
Dong Rong: "Why didn't you stop him?"
The innkeeper said, "I thought they were really determined to wait for your family to marry me, but I didn't know it was just a delaying tactic. The brother and sister ran away in the middle of the night. There was only one waiter at the counter at the time, and he was called away by guests from other rooms."
Dong Rong sighed, paid the innkeeper back the money, and gave him a lot more, asking him to never mention it again. He went home to report to Sheng Hong and Chang Bai. Sheng Hong snorted twice and said, "It's better for them to leave. This saves us the trouble of dealing with them."
Changbai: "Father, aren't you afraid that they will report Third Brother's case to the authorities?"
Sheng Hong: "We still have their confessions of blackmail in our hands. They will definitely not dare to report it to the police."
Changbai: "What if they spread the news everywhere?"
Sheng Hong: "If they want to say something, someone has to believe it! Who would listen to a pair of opera singers making random accusations? Besides, they must have been scared of us since they fled overnight. They won't have the guts to say anything else."
Changbai doesn't think so.
Maybe this brother and sister won’t bother the Sheng Mansion again, but what if they go to find Gu Tingye again?
So Changbai wrote a letter to Gu Tingye that day, telling him everything that happened at home, even the details of his trip to Daxiangguo Temple to buy paper and ink. At the end of the letter, he repeatedly wrote "be careful" several times, asking Gu Tingye to beware of the Zhu brothers and sisters no matter what.
After reading the letter, Gu Tingye said several times, "That was a close call!"
Fortunately, he listened to Minglan this time, otherwise the disaster would have been thrown on his head. If Sheng Hong was replaced by his father Gu Yankai, then he, Gu Tingye, would not be just imprisoned in the ancestral hall like Changfeng, but might even be beaten to death!
Only then did he realize how terrible Zhu Manniang was. He was glad that he listened to Minglan, but also a little regretful that he brought this disaster to Changbai.
He wrote back to Changbai, asking him not to worry, and also sent two copies of calligraphy along with the letter, saying that they were for Minglan and Changfeng to thank them for their help.
Changbai just thought that Gu Tingye was teasing them about their bad handwriting and accidentally kept Changbai away from the dispute. He didn't take it to heart and obediently delivered the calligraphy to his younger brother and sister.
Chang Feng thought that Second Brother Gu had given him some good things, but when he looked, he found that it was Wang Youjun's calligraphy, so he threw it far away.
Minglan carefully put the copy of calligraphy into the first layer of the book box, carried it with her every day, and took it out to read from time to time.
Xiao Tao asked curiously, "Girl, why do you only look at the calligraphy but not practice it?"
Minglan shook her head: "It's too troublesome."
Xiao Tao: "Didn't the girl say that iron must be forged to become useful?"
Minglan: "That's true, but a good instrument must have ears so that it can be easily controlled."
Xiao Tao doesn't understand again...
……
Winter turned to spring, and five years passed in a flash. In a blink of an eye, Minglan, the youngest of the Sheng family girls, also passed the ceremony of coming of age. Changdong, the youngest of the three sons, reached the age of enlightenment, but Sheng Hong was slow to express his opinion.
At this critical juncture, Wei Shuyi proposed to become a monk.
When she came to the old lady and asked for help, she didn't seem very surprised.
"Have you thought it through? Once you become a monk, you won't be able to keep Changdong by your side."
Wei Shuyi kowtowed and said, "Madam, I have thought it through. I have received great kindness from the Sheng family for the life I have now, but apart from giving birth to Minglan and Changdong, I have not done anything else for the Sheng family. I feel very ashamed. I only hope to become a monk and practice Buddhism, and pray for the Sheng family every day. As for Changdong, he is the child of the Lord and his wife, so naturally he will be taken care of by the Lord and his wife. If I keep him by my side, it will delay his development."
The old lady nodded: "You think very clearly. If you become a nun now, the difficulties he is facing may be solved. Then can you bear to give up Minglan?"
Wei Shuyi kowtowed again and said, "If Minglan hadn't left me and stayed with the old lady, she wouldn't have grown up to be what she is now. She can be as sensible, sensible, and knowledgeable as she is now, all thanks to the old lady's education. I am a humble servant, but the child I gave birth to is so lucky, all thanks to the old lady's kindness. I am filled with joy and gratitude."
Madam Sheng no longer had anything to worry about, so she sent Mother Cui to deliver the news to the main house.
After listening to this, Sheng Hong remained silent for a long time.
He really had mixed feelings towards Wei Shuyi. In terms of looks, she was the most outstanding among his three wives and concubines, but in terms of temperament, she was the most bland. Needless to say, Lin Qinshuang was very understanding and thoughtful; although Wang Ruofu had a hot temper, she was sincere and affectionate to him as a husband; only Wei Shuyi was cold-faced and cold-hearted, and could kill his interest in just three sentences, which was really boring. At the beginning, Sheng Hong treated her as an iceberg beauty and wanted to conquer her with tenderness. After conquering her a few times, he found that she was a thousand-year-old ice lump, and he would not shed a tear even if he froze her to death, so he gradually became cold and never looked at her again after having Changdong.
He sighed and agreed to Wei Shuyi's request to become a nun: "Only one thing, she must practice at home and not go out and cause gossip."
Wang Ruofu saw that Sheng Hong had no objection, so she readily agreed. She had always disliked Wei Shi for being weak, and blamed her for not helping her defeat Lin Qinshuang, and felt that it was really useless to support her. Now that Wei Shuyi proposed to become a monk, she could just go with the flow and get rid of him, and she could also save a lot of money from Wei Shuyi, which was really a good thing.
"What about her son Changdong?" Wang Ruofu asked.
"The old lady means that the eldest lady should take the child back to Weiruixuan to raise him." Mother Cui replied.
Wang Ruofu was very happy that she had a son for free!
Sheng Hong frowned and said, "You still have to take care of the housekeeping. Changdong is only five years old. It's quite hard to raise him. Why don't you..."
Wang Ruofu interrupted, "I'm not tired, not at all. I manage such a big family business, let alone raising a baby?"
Mother Cui: "The old lady said that the eldest lady raised such a good child like Brother Bo, who passed the imperial examination at the age of twenty. It is the safest to let Changdong be raised by her. If the family can produce another imperial examination candidate in the future, the old Tanhua will be very happy in heaven."
The news came suddenly, and Lin Qinshuang had no time to whisper in her ear. Wang Ruofu was determined, and the old lady also sent another message and brought up his dead father. It was too late for Sheng Hong to struggle, and the matter was settled.
