Chapter 30 Turning Again and Again
But it was obvious that Wang Ruofu did not listen to Hualan's advice.
Instead, she changed the subject and discussed with Hualan what kind of clothes to wear to the banquet and what kind of jewelry to match them with.
Right.
If Wang Ruofu was really so easy to persuade, she could easily put aside her pride and cater to Sheng Hong.
Mother Liu had trained her to be an expert in domestic fighting, and she was able to easily control Lin Qinshuang, which would not have allowed her to live such a comfortable life until now.
Actually think about it carefully.
Lin Qinshuang, who has been stirring up trouble in the Sheng family for many years and easily controlled Wang Ruofu, does she really have such superb skills in house fighting?
I’m afraid not.
It was only when she met Sheng Hong, whom she thought she had found "love", and Wang Ruofu, the honest and straightforward lady, that she seemed to be able to handle the situation with ease.
Her opponent is weak, which makes her appear strong.
Not to mention top masters like Old Lady Zhu Ruosheng and Old Lady He.
Take Wang Ruofu's sister Aunt Kang for example. She was able to suppress Lin Qinshuang so much by just being ruthless that she had no choice but to passively take the beating.
After all, it was because Wang Ruofu was too straightforward, she didn't know how to beat around the bush, and she wasn't cruel, so she was easily controlled by Lin Qinshuang.
Out of Weiruixuan.
Sheng Hong walked along the straight corridor and soon arrived at the fork in the road between Mucangzhai and Linqi Pavilion.
He hesitated for a while, looked at the followers following him, and couldn't bring himself to do it, so he had to turn around and walk towards Mu Cang Zhai.
When he walked into Mucangzhai, Sheng Hong was stunned.
It turned out that Minglan was not in Shou'an Hall, but was talking to Wei Shuyi beside the bed.
"Why is Minglan here today?"
Sheng Hong expressed his doubts, but he was actually happy in his heart.
In this way, wouldn't it be legitimate for me to go to Shuang'er?
Minglan bowed and replied, "Since father is here, I will go back to my grandmother."
"no, I'm fine!"
Sheng Hong waved his hand quickly, retracted the foot that had just stepped into the room, and said, "You haven't been back to your mother's place for a long time, so why don't you stay here tonight? I'll have someone notify grandma."
Then he called Dong Rong who was following behind him.
"Go and tell your mother that Minglan will sleep in Mu Cang Zhai tonight."
After saying that, he quickly walked out of the yard.
Seeing this, Wei Shuyi couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
Although she had been planning to compete with Lin Qinshuang for favor since she gave birth to her son Changrong.
But unfortunately, she had suffered from an illness during childbirth, and her body had been weak and uncomfortable ever since. If she wasn't careful, she would cough and get sick, so Sheng Hong seldom came here.
We can't even see each other, let alone compete for favor.
Now I can only hope that this winter will end soon and the weather will get warmer so that I can have the opportunity to use my skills.
In less than a moment, Sheng Hong came to the fork in the road again.
Unlike his previous hesitation, Sheng Hong turned a corner and quickly entered the corridor of Linqi Pavilion, his face full of surprise and joy.
Sheng Hong walked quickly into Linqi Pavilion in high spirits.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Lin Qinshuang standing in front of the dressing mirror, teaching Molan how to draw eyebrows and eyes.
She was a pretty little girl, but her tender face was covered with rouge and powder, which made Sheng Hong frown.
"Shuang'er, Mo'er is still young, it's too early for her to learn makeup now." "It doesn't matter whether it's too early or too late for a girl to learn this."
Lin Qinshuang was fair-skinned, beautiful, and had a graceful figure. She only gave Sheng Hong a coquettish look, and Sheng Hong's complaints immediately disappeared, and he felt even more pity for her.
"Too."
Sheng Hong felt that whatever Lin Qinshuang said at this moment made sense.
"Aren't you having dinner at Wei Ruixuan tonight? Why are you coming to my room so late?" Lin Qinshuang asked casually.
Sheng Hong frowned, his annoyance towards Wang Ruofu resurfacing in his mind, "Don't mention her. Thinking of her makes me upset and ruins my mood for no reason."
Lin Qinshuang put away her eyebrow pencil and asked Molan to go to her room to wash up and sleep. Then she walked to Sheng Hong, stuck close to him, and pretended to casually gather a strand of hair on her forehead and put it behind her ear.
"Honglang, I heard that the old lady also went to the eldest lady's yard tonight?"
A burst of fragrance filled his nose, and the soft jade touched his body. The anger Sheng Hong had felt towards Wang Ruofu disappeared instantly. He felt that this was the care and consideration that a woman should have.
"Ah."
Talking about this, Sheng Hong immediately showed joy on his face, and smiled at Lin Qinshuang, "In a few days, the second-rank commander Yang Du will hold a banquet at his home. The attendees are all the well-known families in Bianjing City. His wife Chen has also sent a name card to my family. I have already agreed with the wife to let Molan go with him when the time comes."
"Second rank?"
Lin Qinshuang's eyes widened as she said in disbelief, "How could such a high-ranking official suddenly send an invitation to our house to attend a banquet? Could it be that he had a previous relationship with the old lady?"
Although Sheng Hong loved Lin Qinshuang, he didn't say anything before the matter was confirmed.
In addition, Lin Qinshuang has now lost her power as housekeeper and is not well-informed, so Lin Qinshuang does not know the news about Hualan and Yang Wenyuan.
Sheng Hong showed a smug look on his face, and said proudly: "Shuang'er, you don't know that in a few days, Madam Chen will host a banquet, and she mainly wants my daughter Hua to go, but I thought it would be a good opportunity to let Molan also broaden her horizons. But I felt that this would be too abrupt, so I asked Madam to include all the daughters in the family."
It seems that men can't help but feel the urge to show off in front of their beloved women. Sheng Hong is no exception. He took the credit for himself without hesitation.
"Hualan?"
Lin Qinshuang frowned slightly, feeling something was wrong.
"That's right, you know Yang Wenyuan, right?"
"I know. The young marquis from Yangzhou who often comes to our house, Yang..."
Lin Qinshuang's heart skipped a beat and she looked strange. Sheng Hong laughed and said, "You remember now? You're right. Commander Yang Du is Yang Wenyuan's uncle."
"uncle?"
"Ah."
Sheng Hong was delighted and said happily, "Yang Wenyuan fell in love with my Hua'er, so he asked his aunt, Madam Chen, to send an invitation to my family. He wanted to meet my Hua'er and discuss the future marriage."
Lin Qinshuang's face no longer had any joy on it, instead she showed unspeakable resentment.
Why!
Why does the daughter of Wang Ruofu, a brainless fool, have such a good life?
Not only did he fail to get married to the second son of the Earl's Mansion, but he also had some kind of good fortune.
There is another marriage proposal for the only son of a marquisate!
What a pity.
In order to enter the Sheng family, she paid an unknown price. She risked being kicked out by Old Madam Sheng, secretly seduced Sheng Hong, and had a secret meeting with him. In the end, she was able to enter the Sheng family with her pregnant belly.
In the end, he was still hated by Old Lady Sheng.
And Hualan, that girl actually just sat at home and waited for the opportunity to become the eldest lady of the Marquis' Mansion? !
It’s not fair. This is not fair!
