Chapter 115 The master leads the door, cultivation is personal

"Fortunately, the old lady and I are old friends. If it were someone else, wouldn't outsiders laugh at the Sheng Mansion for having no rules?"

Just like she did with Molan, Nanny Kong still did not continue with Lin Qinshuang's words, but instead pointed out that her behavior was not in accordance with etiquette, and that she had no awareness of being a concubine and did not know how to behave.

Sheng Hong was now listening to what Madam Kong was saying and thinking seriously.

After a moment, his face turned embarrassed.

I feel that Lin Qinshuang has lost face for me.

Therefore, I no longer protect her as I did in the past.

"You said you shouldn't have spoken, but you did. You keep saying you're ignorant. If you know you're ignorant, why do you want to butt in on the girls' upbringing?"

"You know everything, yet you have committed all of them. Isn't that breaking the law knowingly, aggravating your crime?"

As she spoke, Madam Kong looked at Wei Shuyi who had been sitting quietly on the side, and said with a smile: "I think this young lady is very good, she knows the rules and etiquette."

Wei Shuyi didn't dare to agree. He glanced at Lin Qinshuang, who looked unhappy, and said quickly:
"Thank you for your compliment, Mammy. I am not in good health and I like to be quiet, so I didn't say a word."

Accumulate grain widely, build walls high, and slowly become king.

Wei Shuyi knew that even though he had been favored by Sheng Hong these days, he could not compare to the weight Lin Qinshuang held in Sheng Hong's heart.

In addition, although Wei Shuyi had the intention of vying for favor, his original conservative and timid nature could not be changed in a short time, so he really did not want to confront Lin Qinshuang now.

Wei Shuyi thought to himself: Wait a minute, wait a little longer.

In fact, during this period of time, Wei Shuyi had some thoughts of letting it go.

After all, the Sheng family is now in Bian Jing, and Lin Qinshuang will never have the power of housekeeper again. And Madam Wang Ruofu is not a mean person. Even if she doesn't fight for it, the lives of the family of three will not be in danger.

Therefore, Wei Shuyi's heart has been wavering. He is quite greedy for the current stability and is unwilling to take the initiative to break the comfort zone he has just formed.

When Wang Ruofu, who was at the top, saw this scene, the joy that had just risen up in her heart suddenly diminished a lot.

Wang Ruofu naturally knew that during the time she was away from home, Sheng Hong began to pay attention to Wei Shuyi and even went to Linqi Pavilion less often.

I thought Wei Shuyi had come to his senses and turned back, but I didn't expect him to be so disappointing.

The tentacles had just stretched out and covered a thin layer of the outer shell when they impatiently retracted.

Seeing that Wei Shuyi spoke so appropriately and did not rashly take credit for himself by stepping on Shuang'er, Sheng Hong felt that this saved his family's face in light of Lin Qinshuang's recklessness. Thinking of Wei Shuyi's extraordinary talent these days, he felt even more satisfied.

Sheng Hong glanced at Lin Qinshuang and said in a serious tone:
"The eldest lady, the nanny and I are here, so you have no right to speak. You raised your child like this, and you still have the nerve to talk to yourself here? Get out of here quickly and don't embarrass me here."

Lin Qinshuang's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.

Unexpectedly, the moves that had always worked in the past were blocked after just one use in front of Grandma Kong, and she was scolded, which made Sheng Hong a little unhappy.

Knowing that this matter was impossible and would only annoy Sheng Hong, Lin Qinshuang immediately put on an expression of being wronged and sat down again with a miserable look.

The master leads you in. Cultivation is personal.

This was what Old Lady Sheng intended, to use Madam Kong's help to rectify the unhealthy tendencies in the family and sort out the problems.

One is to cure the pretentious Lin Qinshuang and Molan.

The second is to persuade Rulan and the lady who were outspoken.

The third is to remind Sheng Hong to be fair.

Finally, it emphasizes that the whole family should share weal and woe.

Seeing that the matter had been settled and that she had said all that she needed to say, it was up to the individual to understand it or not, so Madam Kong immediately stood up and said:

"Today, I will punish each of you with ten slaps on the hand. Go back and continue to copy the fifty incense contracts. Whoever hasn't finished copying them tomorrow will not have to come." Madam Kong then looked around at everyone in the room and said in a stern tone:
"The punishment we received today must not be spread outside. We must protect the reputation of the girls."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present showed a look of relief on their faces.

Since today's incident only stays at home, it will just be a lecture and instruction. There is no need to worry about the reputation of the Sheng family's daughter being damaged.

Therefore, even when Nanny Kong proposed a punishment, no one present looked unhappy.

"Punish!" As Nanny Kong finished her words, the maids who had already stood in front of the three girls swung down the rulers in their hands.

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

With Madam Kong and an angry Sheng Hong watching, the maids did not dare to slack off and each strike was made with real force.

The three girls had never been punished since childhood. How could they endure the piercing pain? Their eyes immediately turned red.

As soon as the ruler fell, Molan burst into tears and sobbed.

"Daddy!"

After hearing this, Sheng Hong felt a little bit sorry.

But Molan's two younger sisters, Rulan and Minglan, had tears in their beautiful eyes, but they both had pursed red lips and said nothing.

Thinking back to the scolding Lin Qinshuang had received just now from Madam Kong, the pity in her heart suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a hint of dissatisfaction.

Although both of your sisters were punished, they didn't make such a big fuss.

As a sister, why are you crying like this? What does it look like?
Sheng Hong originally thought that Molan was well-educated and well-mannered, but now this thought suddenly faded a little.

Compared to Sheng Hong, Wang Ruofu was burning with anger.

Wang Ruofu has always placed her children at the top of her heart and placed them at the very top of her heart.

Now, seeing with his own eyes his precious Rulan being beaten to the point of shedding tears and sobbing, looking so pitiful, how could he not feel heartbroken.

Originally, I felt that what Grandma Kong said made some sense, but at this moment, I could only selectively come to one conclusion in my mind - all big families start to fail from the inside.

It’s Lin Qinshuang and Molan!
A bad seed brought out a bad embryo, and also caused Rulan to be punished together. How could this be justified in the world?
After the punishment was completed, Madam Kong left first.

The three girls also prepared to go back with heavy homework to copy.

Sheng Hong, who was sitting at the table, saw Wei Shuyi leading Minglan out. He nodded in thought for a while, then immediately stood up and followed them out.

"Ming'er, I hope it doesn't hurt you?"

In the courtyard corridor, Wei Shuyi pulled Minglan's hand, which was beaten red, and blew on it softly, comforting her in a gentle voice.

The mother and daughter were completely unaware that Sheng Hong was following them.

"It doesn't hurt, girl."

Minglan smiled, without any sign of grievance on her face.

"Have you got the bookcase?"

Minglan nodded: "Don't worry, little girl, I've got it."

"It's good to have it. Mammy asked you guys to copy so much overnight. You definitely won't be able to finish it by tomorrow, but you should do your best. It doesn't hurt to write one more word if you can."
