That night, the old lady who heard that Wei Shu wanted to give birth to her son hurried back from the mountains on the outskirts of the city.
When she arrived at Qinyun Courtyard, the old lady was quite pleased to see Wei Shuyi and the sleeping baby beside her pillow.
Although no one in the Sheng family is related to the old lady by blood, and Sheng Hong's actions also frustrated the old lady, the Sheng family is after all the place where the old lady has devoted her life, and the old lady hopes to see Sheng from the bottom of her heart.
The family has a long line of heirs and a prosperous population.
After visiting Wei Shuyi, the old lady originally wanted to ask Mother Fang to prepare some food and clothing for Qinyun Yuan for the mother and the baby. However, Bai Zhi and Banxia had already prepared everything according to Mother Zhao's instructions. Fang's mother walked around the courtyard and found nothing that needed improvement, so she had to go back to Shou'an Hall to report the truth to the old lady.
The old lady was a little surprised, but she was relieved and said with a smile: "It seems that Miss Wei is also capable, so I don't need to worry about it anymore."
"Old lady, I also inquired about something in Qinyun Courtyard." Fang's mother hesitated for a moment, and finally told the old lady about Lin Sushuang's break-in today.
The old lady heard the cause and effect of the incident from Fang's mother, and couldn't help but slap the table: "This Lin Sushuang is becoming more and more daring. He even dares to scheme against the heirs of the Sheng family!"
She spent the first half of her life struggling through the intrigues in the inner house, and she also had a deep understanding of Lin Sushuang's character. Naturally, she knew that Lin Sushuang had no good intentions when she went to Qinyun Court.
If Sheng Changbai hadn't rushed home in time and Lin Sushuang's methods were used, Wei Shuyi, mother and son, would have shed their skin even if they didn't die.
Thinking that her only son was also killed by a poisonous woman in the family through insidious means, the old lady couldn't help but feel sad and said angrily: "That's all. Now that Lin Sushuang has such a vicious heart, if she continues to tolerate it,
, and how many disasters will happen!"
Mother Fang reminded softly: "After all, it didn't work out, and there was no evidence left. Even if I sued the Lord, I'm afraid the Lord wouldn't care too much."
"Do you think he doesn't know who his Miss Lin is? Let me tell you, he knows very well!"
The old lady was still angry, but she still maintained her usual calmness: "I have said some things to him more than once, but he just ignored them. In the past, I didn't want to argue with him, but this time it is about human life.
It’s time to teach him a lesson!”
The old lady pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "Go to the west wing and ask the Wei family brother to come to Shou'an Hall for a chat."
"Yes."
……
Two days later, Sheng Hong and his wife, who had already bid farewell to the Wang family in Runzhou, received news from their family on the way and hurried back home without stopping.
Sheng Hong was over forty years old, and his only legitimate son was Sheng Changbai. Including his concubine Sheng Changfeng, there were only two sons. Although there were four daughters, in general, the number of heirs was still quite thin. p>
Now Wei Shuyi has given birth to another son for him, which is to spread the branches and leaves of the Sheng family. Although Sheng Hong doesn't pay much attention to Wei Shuyi on weekdays, he can't ignore the great contribution she has made to the Sheng family.
Of course, what Sheng Hong is more concerned about than Wei Shuyi is his newborn son.
After getting off the carriage, Sheng Hong hurriedly walked into Qinyun Courtyard: "Where is my seventh brother? Where is my seventh brother!"
After entering the house, she saw the swaddled little guy and felt the closeness that blood is thicker than water. Sheng Hong couldn't help but burst out laughing.
When he looked at Wei Shuyi on the bed, his eyes were a little warmer, and he gave Wei Shuyi a few words of consideration.
When Wang Ruofu, who came with Sheng Hong, saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.
However, Wang Ruofu felt much better when he thought about Lin Sushuang's failure at the hands of Sheng Changbai, who was reported by his family confidants when he arrived.
As long as that little bitch Lin Sushuang is unhappy, Mrs. Wang will be especially happy!
In comparison, it was a trivial matter for Wei Shuyi to give birth to a son.
After holding Sheng Xiaoqi in his arms and teasing her for a long time, Sheng Hong's arms felt a little sore, so he handed the little guy back to Banxia's arms.
Then he lowered his head, gently straightened Wei Shuyi's messy hair, smiled gently at Wei Shuyi, and told her not to get up, so that she could rest and recuperate. She looked quite like a lover.
Wei Shu nodded and responded with a smile, but his heart was like a mirror. The reason why Sheng Hong was so tender towards her was that he was still immersed in the joy of having a son. What would happen when the excitement passed?
Or what?
After experiencing so many years of neglect, Wei Shuyi no longer expects Sheng Hong to change his mind. He just wants to take his two children together and live their own lives.
After expressing his condolences to Wei Shu, Sheng Hong turned around to thank Mother Zhao who delivered the baby that day, and asked her servants to give her generous gifts.
Mother Zhao quickly declined: "Second Young Master has already rewarded me."
"Changbai?"
Sheng Hong was surprised when he heard this and hurriedly asked the whole story. Only then did he know everything that happened on the day Wei Shuyi gave birth, including the role Lin Sushuang played in it.
Sheng Hong's face changed slightly, and he pursed his lips and said nothing. On the other hand, Wang Ruofu stood aside and pointed at Sang and scolded Huai for a long time. It was not until Sheng Hong lowered his face and stared at her that he ended with an unconvinced snort.
After hearing about Lin Sushuang's incident, Sheng Hong lost interest in enjoying family happiness in Qinyun Courtyard. After staying for a short time, he hurriedly left with Wang Ruofu.
Returning to the study, Sheng Hong called Sheng Changbai over and asked him carefully about the events of that day.
Sheng Changbai told what he saw and heard that day, and secretly pointed out Lin Sushuang's sinister intentions.
He had long been dissatisfied with the fact that Sheng Hong spoiled his concubines and killed his wife, causing unrest in the family. However, due to his status as father and son, he could not say more.
Since Sheng Hong took the initiative to ask today, Sheng Changbai had no choice but to take this opportunity to give some subtle advice.
However, no matter how Sheng Changbai hinted that Sheng Hong could bring order to things, Sheng Hong either pretended to be stupid and refused to accept his problem, or he just showed his dignity as a father and suppressed Sheng Changbai to prevent him from continuing.
Sheng Changbai had no choice but to change his strategy and said: "Father, Xingyun was also at the scene that day. He witnessed the whole thing and was very angry at what Lin Xiaoniang did. If Changfeng and I hadn't stopped him, I would have pulled him out on the spot.
Xiaoniang Lin is going to see the official!"
"Meet the official?"
Sheng Hong's eyelids twitched and he said with an unnatural expression: "Isn't this nonsense? Wei Xiaoniang is safe and sound, and Xiao Qi is also alive and kicking. It's just a misunderstanding, why bother making it known to everyone!"
"What my father said is exactly what I told Xingyun." Sheng Changbai said softly: "However, Xingyun has already determined that Lin Xiaoniang has evil intentions towards her aunt. If we don't give Xingyun an explanation, he will not let it go.
."
"Fart! This is a family matter of my Sheng family, what explanation should I give to an outsider?" Sheng Hong roared angrily, but in fact he felt very unsure of himself.
Sheng Hong is very aware of Wei Chen's influence in Yangzhou City. After the Boat Poetry Meeting, the people of Yangzhou may still not know him, Sheng Tongpan, but no one does not know Wei Xingyun.
Based on the great reputation brought by those masterpieces, as long as Wei Chen files a complaint in court, even if there is no conclusive evidence, the Yangzhou government will not dare to neglect it.
As long as the eucalyptus enters the yamen process, no matter what the final result of the trial is, Sheng Hong's reputation as a restless house will be established, and this is what Sheng Hong least wants to see.
