Along the way, Qian's mother kept making noises: "...Madam is very angry. She originally wanted to question my aunt in person, but I persuaded her. [Ye*] [*] The master asked me to invite you, so as not to disturb you. "Old lady..." Minglan didn't say a word and just walked forward. Qian's mother saw that there was a hint of frost on her face and she stopped talking.
When they arrived at the main courtyard where Wang lived, Minglan asked Qian's mother to stay outside the house and walked in. When Wang saw her, she impatiently cursed: "You damn girl! Why are you so crazy? The house was surrounded and no one was allowed in or out! If anyone refused, they would even beat people..."
Sheng Hong was wearing official uniform and walked around the room irritably: "What on earth are you thinking about? If this spreads out, how will our family gain a foothold in the outside world in the future..." Being surrounded by his own daughter is really a strange thing.
Minglan felt a little funny. No matter what time, her father was always worried about this. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dad, I asked the guards to block the door from the inside. The door is closed. How can people outside know what's going on inside?" Already?"
Sheng Hong fainted in panic and was distracted from his thoughts for a moment.
Minglan said: "Besides, didn't dad say yesterday that it wouldn't hurt to take a day off?"
Sheng Hong was blocked by his own words and forgot to ask other questions.
Mrs. Wang stood up and said angrily: "I still want to go to court!"
Minglan walked a few steps closer and said, "Don't worry, dad. I just asked someone to ask for leave for dad. It was said that an elder in the family was seriously ill, and dad was worried about it. He was at home to serve his grandmother. Dad has always been diligent and never asked for leave. What if If word gets out, people will only say that my father serves my mother with utmost filial piety, purity and goodness, which is of great benefit to my official reputation."
Sheng Hong wiped the sweat that had just broken out on his forehead and felt that his daughter's words were quite reasonable. It was true that the old lady was sick, and she had nothing important to do recently, so why not tell her a lie and actually do her a favor?
When Wang saw that Minglan still ignored her, she became even more furious, "You locked up our whole family, what do you want to do?" Sheng Hong slowly took off his official hat and put it squarely on the table, "You Tell me?"
"It's nothing serious, just to prevent someone from tipping off the news." Minglan still smiled elegantly.
Sheng Hong frowned and said, "What kind of tip-off?"
"Poison." Minglan suppressed her smile and looked straight at Wang.
Wang's heart skipped a beat and she slowly sat down, holding on to the edge of the table.
Sheng Hong was confused and shouted in a low voice: "What the hell are you talking about!" Just after he finished speaking, he suddenly realized and was horrified, "You mean the old lady..." Minglan nodded. Sheng Hong was shocked. He staggered and sat down, calmed himself down, and said loudly: "Don't talk nonsense! All the people in this house are my own family, how could..."
Ming Lan pointed to the long table above, and Lu Zhi immediately put a small bundle in his hand on it and gently untied it. Inside was a blue and white porcelain rosette dish, containing several pieces of golden and fragrant snacks.
When Wang saw this, his face turned pale. Sheng Hong pointed at the plate tremblingly: "This belongs to the old lady... could it be... arsenic?" This is the most popular poison on the market today.
"It's not arsenic," Minglan said.
Mrs. Wang stroked her chest, wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with one hand, relaxed her shoulders and said casually: "I knew it, obviously it was just..." She was shocked and quickly stopped.
Minglan said coldly: "Just what? Does my wife know the inside story?"
Sheng Hong also stared at his wife in shock, and Wang hesitated: "Obviously...obviously she is just sick."
Minglan smiled coldly: "Although this thing in my heart is not arsenic, it can be fatal." She said to Sheng Hong, "Dad, do you know that when ginkgo sprouts sprout, it is poisonous."
Sheng Hong nodded: "Of course. No one knows this. Only ignorant children who are gluttonous are prone to poisoning."
Minglan said: "Someone made the ginkgo sprout juice very thick and poured it into the filling of this snack. I asked Fang's mother about the old lady's habit of always eating two snacks while they are hot first. Doctor Lin said that if you really eat I took two pieces, and the old lady is now in the Yama Hall. It’s so pitiful that the weather is so hot, and the old lady can’t bear the sweetness, so she only ate one piece, and that’s how she survived half her life.”
Sheng Hong's vest was soaked with cold sweat, and the lapels were already wet.
"The most interesting thing is that yesterday at noon, people around my wife went to Shou'an Hall to ask for the remaining snacks, saying that my eldest niece wanted to eat them. Fortunately, Fang's mother saw that the old lady didn't eat much, so if she came back and wanted to eat again, she Leave some behind. Otherwise, it is really perfect." Minglan stared at Wang, carefully examining the changes in her expression, "The person who poisoned her was really careful."
Mrs. Wang was in a panic. Before meeting her, both father and daughter stared at her and shouted, "What do you think I'm doing?!"
Minglan said: "Isn't this snack sent by my wife? My filial daughter-in-law bought snacks for my mother-in-law. How many people praised my wife in the past."
Sheng Hong was furious, and regardless of his daughter in front of him, he said angrily: "Say! What on earth did you do!"
Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth and decided to stay single: "It's not that easy to convict me of a crime with just a few snacks. Who knows it's not the slaves around the old lady who have evil intentions and are plotting against the old lady!"
Sheng Hong cursed: "Idiot, idiot! The people from Shou'antang have been with the old lady for decades, why do they want to kill her!"
Mrs. Wang held her neck high and retorted: "Who knows if the old lady has a sweet face but a bitter heart, and secretly treats her servants harshly? Or maybe it's that Dr. Lin who makes random diagnoses and doesn't see the disease himself, so he just talks nonsense?" !”
Sheng Hong was so angry that he couldn't speak when he saw her careless face. Minglan didn't care and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. We can call a few more imperial doctors to see if the old lady is poisoned or sick. "
"This can't be done!" Sheng Hong said anxiously, "This is a family scandal. You were too reckless when you asked Imperial Physician Lin last night. If the news spreads, our family will have no face at all. Now, how can we call anyone else People know!”
Minglan was not surprised at her father's reaction: "Dad, don't worry. Dr. Lin is a person whom our Lord Marquis trusts. He knows a lot, but he keeps his mouth shut. As for inviting the next doctor... It's not that Mrs. Lin can't be trusted." The imperial doctor."
After saying that, he spread his hands.
Sheng Hong fell down in anger and stamped his feet at Mrs. Wang: "You...you still haven't admitted your mistake...!"
Wang's heart was filled with evil fire, and she said nonsensically: "The old lady is getting older, and she has become more and more greedy. She ate the sprouted ginkgo, and her health was not good. She took a few pieces of cake to accuse me unjustly! I tell you, you want me to admit it." , Unless I die!" After thinking for a while, he proudly added, "You think my mother's family has no one!"
Sheng Hong suddenly became hoarse when he thought that the Wang family was nearby.
Minglan covered her mouth with her sleeves and laughed with tears in her eyes: "I'm afraid Madam doesn't know. If you only have a small amount of ginkgo bud juice, it won't cause any serious harm. If you want to eat the sprouted ginkgo until you fall into coma, you have to eat at least one or two. Where’s the sack! But..."
She wiped away the tears that had accumulated in her eyes and said, "Madam, you don't have to seek life and death. If madam feels that I and the master are being unfair, we might as well go to court and ask the government official to have a trial. Isn't that the end of the matter?"
As soon as these words came out, both Sheng Hong and Wang were shocked. Wang cursed: "You damn girl! You are shameless, and the Sheng family is even more shameless!" Sheng Hong jumped up and yelled: "How dare you!"
Ming Lan stood in the middle and said indifferently: "If I don't want to make the matter bigger, please persuade my wife. Otherwise, I will submit a pleading to Yousi Yamen. Otherwise, I can call the servant of Qi Mansion." , have a fierce fight with my guards, hide the evidence and the old lady, and tell me that I have nothing to complain about."
Sheng Hong stamped his feet in anxiety. If the fight really started in his own home and the neighbors knew about it, he wouldn't have to see anyone.
"Good boy. If you want to vent your anger for the old lady, I understand your intentions." He could only persuade him in a good voice, "But we are all members of the same family, so why bother to make things worse? Let's close the door and take it easy. Check slowly."
"A family of flesh and blood?" Minglan blinked, "Daddy didn't tell me, but I forgot. Everyone in this house is flesh and blood, and they are close relatives." There was a ticking sound, and a tear fell on his sleeve at some point, "I and I Father and daughter are flesh and blood, brothers and sisters are flesh and blood, and my wife and several sisters-in-law are the sons and daughters of the Sheng family. Our family is all flesh and blood—except for the old lady."
Unknowingly, hot tears welled up in her eyes, and Minglan repeated: "Except for the old lady. She has no flesh and blood, father, elder brother, elder sister, and the rest of us. She doesn't have any blood left. Next. I think the person who poisoned me also expected this. My wife’s mother-in-law is responsible for it, and the old lady has already severed ties with her mother-in-law! Yes, our family has good momentum now, why would we have to make a big fuss over such a trivial matter? Woolen cloth?!"
Sheng Hong looked at the obvious sarcasm at the corner of his daughter's mouth. His temples twitched violently a few times, and he reached out and slapped her away. Minglan received the slap, and there was a burning sensation on her cheeks. She could only gasp in pain, but Still unwilling to give up, she stroked her face and sneered: "Master, I sent people to block the house tightly last night, why do you think it was?!"
Sheng Hong put away his palms and said solemnly: "If you insist on having your own way, you have to think about the consequences!"
"I have figured it out a long time ago." Minglan was full of grief and anger, "According to my father's habit of keeping things quiet, and for the sake of the family's face, this matter will inevitably become a big deal and become a trivial matter. As for other matters, I will obey the master. It’s not impossible, but this matter must be discontinued!”
Sheng Hong sneered again and again: "You can't see that I gave birth to a capable daughter who is so disobedient to her biological father. I don't have a daughter like you either!"
Minglan couldn't hold back her tears and said, "I know. After this time, my father may no longer want to recognize me, my eldest brother and I have a rift, and my eldest sister will ignore me, let alone my eldest sister-in-law and my fifth sister. That's it." Lord Marquis, I'm afraid you will blame me for being ignorant. I have offended everyone. In the future, I will no longer have my mother's family to rely on. Let me speak plainly today——"
She was cruel and shouted, "In order to get justice for my grandmother, I can give up my father, brothers, sisters, and even the comfortable days of wealth and honor now!"
After saying these words, she risked everything. Minglan said proudly: "There are only two ways to deal with this matter. Either, my wife will explain everything; or, I will go to Shuntian Prefecture to beat drums and complain! The master will see to it. .”
Sheng Hong was so angry that his whole body was shaking, his hands and feet were cold, and he was glaring at his daughter angrily. But now that the matter had come to this, he could only do the next best thing. He turned to glare at Wang, "I don't care about my face anymore when I get to this field. If you are still stubborn, I will have to write a letter of divorce. At worst, I will offend the Wang family and we will no longer interact with each other." It would be okay if this matter can be covered up, but once it comes out, it will immediately become a big deal; if it is small, you will be demoted, but if it is big, it will be big. Lose your official position or even get a lawsuit.
Wang was also frightened.
In the impression of these ten years, Minglan has always been smart, well-behaved, well-informed, and knows how to accept things when they are easy, and never makes things difficult for others; but today she is acting like crazy, refusing to let go even if she bites her to death. How dare you go against your biological father and say such crazy things. She shook her fingers and said, "How dare you... how dare you disobey your elders..."
"When this matter is over, my wife can go and accuse me of disobedience. (·~)" Minglan said lightly, "If my wife is still fine at that time."
Wang choked, turned to look at Sheng Hong, prayed with her eyes open, "Master..."
Sheng Hong was too lazy to pay attention to her, pointed to the green branches behind Minglan and said: "Go get pen and ink, I will write a letter of divorce immediately."
Mrs. Wang was dumbfounded, covering her face and crying: "How come my life is so miserable and I have been in the Sheng family for so long..."
Sheng Hong turned around and sneered: "You stupid woman! Don't even look at the current situation. There is the diagnosis given by the imperial doctor to the old lady, there is this poisoned cake, and you bought this cake - these three things In this way, this girl has already taken hold of your life."
There are all witnesses and material evidence, and there is a lot of information that their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law do not share with outsiders, which forms a complete chain of evidence. If it really goes to court, Wang will definitely die, so it is only right that he cut her off quickly. .
He added another sentence, "You harmed my mother-in-law's life, even if it breaks the law, I won't be able to divorce you!"
Wang was stunned and stopped crying temporarily, when a soft cry came from the side - "Madam!"
Everyone turned around and saw Liu Kun's family lifting the bamboo curtain in the side room, walking in with his head lowered, and kneeling gently in front of Mr. Wang, "Madam, now that the matter has come to an end, don't be stubborn. If you don't tell the truth, Brother Bai and the two Sister, I am so tired!"
She raised her head and stared at Mrs. Wang: "If you have any idea, how will the two sisters gain a foothold in the husband's family in the future? And the eldest young master, he has a good career now!"
Mrs. Wang shuddered in horror. If she was divorced, how would her two daughters behave? And her son...
Minglan looked at Liu Kun's family and sneered softly: "I forgot about you, Mother Liu. How can I miss you for such an important matter?"
Liu Kun's family knelt and turned to Minglan: "Back then, the old lady ordered the concubine of the Kang family not to come to the house again. Although I didn't dare to say anything as a slave, I also felt that it was right. I was originally from the Wang family, but I have to say something today, Nowadays, my concubines are becoming more and more out of character. But our wives are soft-eared, can't bear to be persuaded, and tend to do the wrong things. I often persuade my wife not to associate with my concubines anymore, but my wife always refuses to listen because of my sisterly affection. , every time I talk to my concubine, she always sends me out."
"So, Mother Liu doesn't know anything about it?" Minglan's legs became weak as she stood, and she slowly walked to the chair and sat down.
Liu Kun's family said: "Although I don't know, I can make a guess after listening to what my aunt said just now." She raised her head and looked at Minglan, "Isn't my aunt also having doubts, so she kept asking my wife to tell the truth? Otherwise , based on what the imperial doctor said and this plate of snacks, my aunt should have had an attack last night, and now she has discussed with the master how to punish my wife."
Minglan felt a little admiration: "The old lady of the Wang family sent you here with really good intentions."
Liu Kun's family kowtowed again and said respectfully: "I don't know anything about the ginkgo bud juice or the refined essence that my aunt just now talked about. I have served my wife since I was a child, and I know her character very well. Although she is a little impatient. , but he is an honest person, how could he have expected such a sinister way to scheme against people."
Seeing that her daughter's attitude had softened a lot, Sheng Hong was no longer in a hurry to write a divorce letter, and sat angrily. Hearing this, he couldn't help but nod. His mother-in-law couldn't even read. Even if she knew that ginkgo buds were poisonous, how could she know that the juice of the buds was poisonous? It can be refined into a thick juice. Only those who can read and read can think of high-end technology. With a thought in his mind, he already thought of one person when he contacted Liu Kun's family.
Liu Kun's family turned back again, held Wang's hand, and comforted her softly: "Madam, just say it. If it's not for others, it's also for the sake of a few brothers and sisters."
Wang finally couldn't help it and cried: "It's... it's my sister... she, she said, I made the old lady treat her to death, scolded and punished me at every turn, and now even my daughter-in-law can step on my face. It’s really a useless life. But... the old lady is strong, I don’t know how to survive until the year of the monkey, so, so..."
"So you sisters are teaming up to poison the old lady?!" Sheng Hong was also angry.
"No, no!" Mrs. Wang waved her hands quickly and cried even louder, "...she said, as long as the old lady is weak and lingers on the bed from time to time, and has no energy to take care of this, then I will not be in charge of the family. Is it..."
"Confused!" Sheng Hong scolded in annoyance. He was scolding his daughter just now. He was so angry that he didn't have time to think so much. He always thought that there was something fishy going on, but he didn't expect that Mr. Wang really had evil thoughts.
Mrs. Wang cried harder and harder: "Sister said that there was nothing serious about the snack. Didn't the doctor also say last night that the old lady's condition was stable? How do I know..."
Liu Kun's family said: "Madam, you are so confused! Don't even think about it. Quan brother is raised by the old lady. If the old lady suddenly decides to break off a piece of snack and let the child try it, wouldn't it be terrible?!"
Wang suddenly woke up, with tears streaming down her face: "...Oh my god...how dare she?"
"That's my wife's grandson, not my concubine's? How can she take it to heart? Even if something happens to brother Quan, can't my wife go and confront her? Only my concubine can control you." Liu Kun's family shook his head repeatedly.
Sheng Hong also thought of a deeper level - after the death of the old lady, the Wang family took full charge of the internal affairs of the Sheng Mansion, and Aunt Kang took advantage of this and threatened her from time to time. Whether it was people or money, she was afraid that the Wang family would have to agree to anything. Already.
He gritted his teeth and said angrily: "This bitch! I treat the Kang family well, but she actually dares to plot against my family like this!"
Mrs. Wang hugged the Liu Kun family's arms and cried, Sheng Hong clapped her legs and got angry. Luzhi had already brought Bi Mo another pot of new tea. Minglan stood up and paced slowly in the room, thinking: The concubine of the Kang family After becoming a concubine in the palace, the Wang family is back again. The upright and strong eldest grandson Changbai has not come back yet, and she has a falling out with Gu Tingye again (Aunt Kang thinks so) - is there any better time than now?
Ginkgo bud juice is not arsenic-like poison, and it cannot be detected with a silver needle. As long as the old lady died and her body was stiff, symptoms such as twitching of hands and feet, diarrhea, and vomiting were all undetectable. At that time, she and Mr. Wang would control everything. Search out the rest and destroy it. Even if you doubt it again, you will still have no proof. Even if something goes wrong, all doubts will fall on Wang's head. Aunt Kang can just bite her to death and she will be clean. Minglan sneered in her heart. :What a venomous and cold woman!
After a while, there was a noise outside. Everyone turned to look and saw a ferocious-looking man pushing a disheveled woman in and standing on the porch. Xiao Tao followed behind her. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Madam, Mother Qian just secretly stuffed the boy with money and told him to sneak out through a dog hole!"
Minglan nodded slightly towards the big man: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Tu Er."
When Wang saw Tu Hu's terrifying appearance, he was already shaking violently. Fortunately for Sheng Hong, he knew that his son-in-law had many people in the world who looked after his home and courtyard for him, and the Tu brothers were two of them. A leader.
He said to Qian's mother who was kneeling on the ground: "What are you going out for?"
Mother Qian's face was covered with mud marks, and she cried loudly: "Master, I am wronged! There is an emergency at home, so I am sending someone back!"
Sheng Hong said: "What's going on at home?"
"...My 80-year-old mother is sick..." Qian's mother cried loudly.
Xiao Tao immediately pointed out the mistake: "Isn't your mother dead a long time ago? I gave you too much money that year."
"Yes...it's my godmother. She's not in good health..." Qian's mother continued to quibble.
Luzhi said quickly: "Just now I went to get the pen and ink, and I saw that she kept looking into the room and eavesdropping." In fact, all the wives in Wang's house have this habit, and she didn't care at all, but no one else asked her. Go out and report.
Sheng Hong was furious: "You little slave! You still haven't told the truth!"
Qian's mother lay on the ground, crying and howling that she was wronged.
Sheng Hong couldn't ask for a while, and he was worried that the matter would be leaked, so he didn't dare to ask his servants to come and apply the plank.
Minglan frowned: "I don't have that much time." She nodded slightly toward the door, "I'll have to do it for you, Mr. Tu."
Tu Hu smiled proudly and said, "What's so difficult about this?"
He strode into the house, pulled off a sweat towel from his waist, pinched Qian's mother's chin, and stuffed it into her mouth. Then he put his left knee on her back, his left hand clasped her shoulder, and his right hand squeezed her. , I don’t know how hard he used his hands, but there was a deep sound of bones breaking, and Qian’s mother screamed like a killing pig, but her mouth was blocked and she couldn’t scream loudly.
When everyone looked, they saw that the little finger of her right hand was bent in a strange way. The base of the finger was pressed back, almost touching the back of the hand, but the tip of the finger was bent outward at more than ninety degrees. Wang stared at the finger, frightened. Trembling and distraught, Liu Kun's family also looked ugly, while Sheng Hong had a solemn face and said nothing.
Mother Qian's face turned purple from pain, the whites of her eyes rolled up, and she half fainted. Xiao Tao quickly poured out a bowl of tea that Lu Zhi had just brought, and splashed it on Mother Qian's face - although most of the TV shows use cold water or ice water. The prisoner was awakened, but it turned out that hot tea was also very effective. Qian’s mother woke up, and in front of her eyes was Tu Hu’s face, howling like a ghost.
I just heard this man say in a gloomy tone: "If you talk nonsense again, let's do it again. Anyway, you have ten fingers." Qian's mother was so frightened that she almost died, and nodded quickly.
Tu Hu let go of his arm, took away the sweat towel, then walked out and stood on the porch again - after all, for the sake of Mrs. Gu Hou's natal family, he didn't do anything cruel and didn't see any blood, otherwise he would probably still be there. A few of them were scared to death.
Minglan stared at Qian's mother indifferently: "Say it."
This time, Qian’s mother was pouring beans out of the bamboo tube. She covered her fingers and trembled and said all: "... Mrs. Kang gave me the money and asked me to tell her about the affairs of the house. Yesterday she gave more money and called I'll keep a close eye on the old lady, and after she falls ill, if there's the slightest sign of trouble, I'll report it to her immediately..."
Minglan smiled, turned around and said, "Dad, now you know why I closed the mansion."
Sheng Hong was extremely angry. If Minglan didn't make a show last night, coaxing everyone away first and then investigate carefully, but instead broke out on the spot, then the internal thief in his family would have gotten through to the external ghost.
Minglan asked Tu Hu to drag Qian's mother down. Looking at the sky that was gradually turning blue and bright, she said to herself, "Just let Aunt Kang think everything is calm at home." - This was the right time.
She turned to Liu Kun's family and said, "Mama Liu, get up quickly, I'm afraid it will be hard on you this time."
Liu Kun's family stood up and said bravely: "Please give me your instructions, Grandma Sixth Aunt."
Minglan was particularly kind and cheerful: "For so many years, you have always advised my wife not to be confused. I know you are a good person. Now that such a big thing has happened, my wife is also very involved, so I can only bother you to go to the hospital." Go home, go and invite my concubine, and then we can sit down and talk about it, and maybe things will become clear."
Liu Kun's family was confused: "Go and invite my aunt?" At this moment, Sixth Aunt Grandma had the heart to skin Aunt Kang alive, so what else could she invite?
Minglan nodded: "You have to look panicked, just say that the old lady struggled all night, and now she is finally okay. My wife is timid and has been scared all night. Why don't you come and invite your concubine over at dawn? Please At least she helps her sister feel brave, gives her ideas, lends a hand, and so on."
Liu Kun's family understood, and said with a cold heart: "This... concubine is willing to come...?"
Minglan smiled meaningfully: "Why doesn't she want to come? If she asks my wife if she has notified the aunts, just say that she was informed first. The aunts have husbands, and they will wait until the weather is clear. Da Liang will invite you again."
Liu Kun's family chewed carefully and understood that the aunt would indeed come.
Qian's mother didn't go to report, explaining that everything was normal. If she kept pretending, Aunt Kang would think that Wang had seen someone's life. Now she was scared to death and needed her. She also needed to come to inquire about the news and collect some evidence.
The Liu Kun family secretly sighed in their hearts that this sixth lady was so powerful; they could only respond in a low voice.
"Mother Liu," Minglan said slowly, "you know my relationship with the old lady. If I can't seek justice from the rightful owner this time, then I will have to find someone else to vent my anger. I heard that Jiu'er is now married They are very good, and Mother Liu’s sons also have great futures. So..." She smiled and smoothed her temples, "Do something decent and don’t give away your flaws."
Liu Kun's family felt chilled to the bone. He knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "I must have invited my concubine here!"
After Liu Kun's family also went out, Luzhi helped Wang, who was scared to death, back to the back room. Sheng Hong frowned and said, "Why do you need to trick people? Just go and argue with the Kang family."
"If the matter is true and all the evidence is confirmed. The Kang family...oh no, the Wang family is willing to hand over Aunt Kang and let us suffer? When the time comes, should we lead the servants to knock on the door, or should we really go to the Yamen and ask for an explanation? Canon punishment?”
Minglan poured a bowl of tea with her own hands and served it to her father, "We hold people in the palm of our hands, kill them, scrape them, or poison them with wine and white silk. But we have the final say. I'm sorry the Wang family won't dare to sue." She said. Lowering his voice, "Dad, if I can, I don't want to ruin my eldest brother's future and ruin the Sheng family's face."
Sheng Hong was horrified: "You want Kang Wang's life?!"
Minglan said: "Don't worry, dad, I won't cause trouble for dad. I will take people outside and kill them."
Sheng Hong held the tea bowl and couldn't react for a long time.
How come the little daughter who had been well-behaved and lovely for more than ten years suddenly turned into a dominatrix? Not only did she disobey her biological father, intimidate her aunt, torture and trick others without even frowning, but now she kept saying she wanted to kill someone!
He murmured: "Your biological mother died young, Mo Lan wanted to scratch your face, the marriage was full of twists and turns, and it was not easy in many ways. How you took the overall situation into consideration and never cared about anything. Why now..."
Minglan smiled bitterly: "Yes. Why is this?"
After saying this, she turned around and went out, "...Dad, let's rest for a while, and my daughter will go see the old lady again."
Sheng Hong looked at his little daughter's thin back and suddenly realized that he had never known this child before.
…
Xiaotao supported Minglan, her nose thick with tears: "Madam, can we really avenge the old lady?"
Minglan said tiredly: "Remember one thing. In this world, it is often about who is willing to risk more than the other. My father, my wife, the Wang family, and the Kang family, none of them dare to really risk anything, but I dare!"
After a pause, she said softly: "If you don't avenge your loved ones, sometimes it's not that you can't, but that you don't want to. Being afraid of this or that is just because you have too many worries. You can't let go of this, and you can't let go of that."
Xiao Tao raised her head and said, "Madam, have you given up on everything?"
Minglan looked very strange and replied: "If I didn't have my grandmother, what would I have to give up?" This body was not originally hers, so there was no need to thank Sheng Hong and Aunt Wei for the birth.
Entering the back room, Minglan said: "I'm having a conversation with my grandmother."
Fang's mother looked at the redness and swelling on the side of Minglan's face, and led everyone back out with tears in her eyes.
In just half a day, Mrs. Sheng had lost a full circle of weight. Her skin was dry and wrinkled, brown and thin. She was still drowsy, but her vomiting and diarrhea had stopped. Minglan sat on the edge of the bed and slowly put her head to her old age. On my wife’s arm, it’s just like when I was a child
She silently said in her heart - Thank you. When I was most helpless, you raised me, protected me, taught me to grow up, and gave me the courage to face this annoying place.
She has always been a good pretender.
Pretending to be indifferent, pretending to have no fear at all, in fact, she was terribly scared in her heart. In this completely unfamiliar world, what would she be like without the care and warmth of this old man? Mrs. Sheng was like a solid rock, stable and steady. Stand firmly behind her and let her rely on her. No matter when, where or what happens, she will always remember that there is a safe haven when she looks back.
"I will never let them go." She said softly, "You shouldn't die like this." The old lady should live to be more than a hundred years old, with her children and grandchildren respecting her and loving her, and then die peacefully in her sleep.
"You have been alone for half your life, with no flesh and blood, and no home, so they bullied you. Don't worry, you still have me." She suddenly began to cry sadly: "It's just that everyone has betrayed us, just think that I came to this world for nothing. "
