Chapter 160: The Faith of the Chinese Nation(1/2)
Turn around and see Cangzhai.
The large and small boxes exuded the aura of jewels, which made Xiao Tao dizzy.
Dan Ju's eyes also shone: "Girl, Gu Tingye actually gave you such a heavy gift. It seems that he is really devoted to you."
Minglan seemed a little absent-minded. After a moment, she suddenly smiled and said, "You can take a few things to give to the fourth and fifth sisters."
"Ah? But miss, this is Gu Tingye's betrothal gift for your engagement." Xiao Tao said distressedly.
Minglan tapped Xiao Tao on the forehead: "Nonsense, Gu Tingye is still in the period of filial piety. How can we talk about marriage? It's still early for the betrothal gift."
"But the fourth and fifth girls treat you like this, why do you still give them these good things?" Xiao Tao rubbed her forehead and asked in confusion.
The corner of Minglan's mouth raised a strange arc, and she looked pointedly in the direction of Lin Qige: "Between good sisters, of course we should share the blessings and the hardships. I have such a happy thing, so of course we have to do it together.
It’s good to be happy.”
In Wei Rui Xuan, Ru Lan happily turned over the gift that Minglan had just sent, her mouth full of admiration.
"Mom, look at this string of pearls. The color is so brilliant. The most rare thing is that all the pearls are the same size. They are even better than the string of my sister Hualan."
Wang Ruofu looked at his daughter with hatred: "Look at your carelessness, Ruona Gu Tingye is going to marry you, and all the rare treasures today belong to you!"
"I told you to pay more attention in school and not just get along with Mo Lan. Now it's good that neither the young prince nor the two young princes have a crush on you."
Rulan said unconvinced: "That Mo Lan is flirting all day long, but no one is interested in her. Besides, Gu Tingye has a bad reputation, so I don't want to marry her. The Gu family has a complicated relationship, and Minglan will suffer from it in the future."
Eat, what is there to envy?"
"Besides, they look down on me, so what can I do? Who made me not as good-looking as Minglan, just follow my mother."
"You... evil thing, evil thing!" Wang Ruofu was so angry that she wanted to lift the table. Her appearance had always been the biggest pain in her heart. If she was so beautiful and charming, how could she still have that bitch like Lin Sushuang?
What's up?
There was another scene over at Linqi Pavilion.
In front of Dan Ju, Mo Lan swept the gift on the floor and pointed at Dan Ju's nose and cursed.
"Who wants her to be so hypocritical? Is she giving a gift? She is clearly showing off to me that she has found a good husband. Get out of here!"
Danju was so angry that she argued: "My girl is kind enough to share, how can the fourth girl slander my girl indiscriminately?"
"How dare you talk back?" Mo Lan stepped forward and slapped Dan Ju directly.
Danju was stunned and covered her face: "Four girls don't care, we just took the things away, why did we do it?"
"Okay, you, a slave, dare to question me. You are relying on Minglan to support you. I want to see if you can beat me! Someone drag me out and beat me hard!" Mo Lan!
He said angrily.
Danju was not a vegetarian either. She pushed away the maid who came to catch her and scolded: "I wonder who dares. I am the person arranged by the old lady to go to the sixth girl's room. Even if she needs to be punished, it will be the sixth girl who will punish her. It will be her turn."
Less than four girls."
After saying that, he led his men and broke out. Melan suddenly felt angry and screamed: "Are you all dead? Get this bitch back!"
"But Danju belongs to the old lady after all..." Lin Xiaoniang hesitated.
Mo Lan said angrily: "My dear, if a cheap servant slaps you in the face today, will we still have a foothold in this house in the future?"
As she said that, she immediately led people to chase her. Before Lin Xiaoniang could react, Mo Lan had already arrived at the door.
In Mu Cangzhai, Danjue told the story aggrievedly. Xiaotao looked at the slap marks on Danjue's face and said angrily: "These four girls are too unreasonable. The girl kindly gave her a gift. Not only did she not
I didn't appreciate it, but I beat him instead."
When Mo Lan, who had just rushed in, heard this, he immediately exploded: "Okay, whose influence is Dan Ju relying on? It turns out you were the one who gave the instructions behind his back!"
Minglan looked panicked: "Fourth sister, what are you doing?"
Mo Lan looked at Ming Lan's charming and innocent face, and felt jealousy burning in her heart. She stepped forward and slapped Ming Lan on the face. Ming Lan fell to the ground and knocked down the investigation case.
The teapot and tea utensils were shattered on the floor, full of fragments.
Looking at the porcelain fragments on the ground, an evil idea suddenly came to Mo Lan's mind. He picked up a fragment by accident and slashed it towards Ming Lan's face.
A cut suddenly appeared on Minglan's delicate skin.
This scene shocked everyone in the room. Xiao Tao and Dan Ju were the first to react and quickly controlled Mo Lan who was about to commit an attack. The maid Mo Lan brought saw that his girl was entangled and stepped forward to help.
The scene fell into chaos for a while.
At this moment, Wang Ruofu came over after hearing the news and shouted: "Stop it, everyone, you are going to rebel! Pull them away quickly!"
Wang Ruofu looked at the injuries on Ming Lan's face, and then looked at the porcelain fragments in Mo Lan's hand, and suddenly became energetic.
"What a vicious fourth girl, you want to ruin the sixth girl's appearance. Someone, please take her to my custody!"
"Slow down!" Lin Xiaoniang also rushed over, stepped forward and hugged Mo Lan.
"What are you doing, madam? We haven't figured out the matter yet, so we have to kidnap someone."
Wang Ruofu was furious: "Isn't this clear? There are so many people in this room watching. Do you think the fourth girl scratched the sixth girl's face on purpose?"
The people brought by Mo Lan lowered their heads when they realized they were wrong. Xiao Tao and Dan Ju hurriedly said: "The eldest lady, the fourth girl, rushed straight into our yard and not only beat our girl, she also scratched her with a piece of porcelain.
Face, you must make the decision for Miss Six!"
"What else do you have to say?" Wang Ruofu stared at Lin Xiaoniang. This was the first time in so many years that she had the upper hand in the confrontation between the two, and she couldn't help but feel happy!
Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaoniang cried and said: "These maids are all the Sixth Girl's people, so they are naturally towards the Sixth Girl."
"you......."
At this time, Mrs. Sheng's mother, Fang's mother, also rushed over.
"The old lady said that everyone present should be taken away and kept under separate custody until the master comes back before making a decision."
Lin Xiaoniang breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. As long as Sheng Hong comes back, she won't be afraid anymore.
"Mother Fang, these four girls are frightened. I think they should be taken back to rest for a while until the master comes back to question them."
As she was about to take Mo Lan away, Fang's mother stopped Lin Xiaoniang.
"The old lady is giving orders to everyone. It's better for Miss Lin not to make things difficult for us. Besides, the fourth girl is intact now. If there are any injuries on her body after she returns, it's hard to tell."
Lin Xiaoniang had nothing to say, so she had no choice but to ask Fang's mother to take her away, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.
After Sheng Hong came back, when he saw the injuries on Minglan's face, he was shocked and said in anger: "Who did this?"
Minglan was now not only his daughter, but also Gu Tingye's future wife. Such a good son-in-law, if Minglan regretted it because of injuries on her face, would he have to regret it too late?
As a typical scholar-bureaucrat in feudal society, Sheng Hong's family prosperity is more important than anything else.
Wang Ruofu snorted coldly: "It's not your precious fourth girl."
"Mo Lan?" Sheng Hong hesitated for a moment: "Can't you? Mo Lan has always been well-behaved, how could he do such a thing?"
Wang Ruofu became angry instantly: "Well-behaved? I'm afraid you're just pretending to be well-behaved. If you were really well-behaved, why would you scratch your sister's face with pieces of porcelain? This is going to ruin the appearance of the sixth girl! Be careful.
How vicious!"
Sheng Hong was speechless for a moment.
Mrs. Sheng snorted coldly: "Bring everyone here!"
Mo Lan was brought up, looking panicked. When she saw Sheng Hong, she cried and defended.
"Father, they wronged me. I just had a dispute with Minglan, and I accidentally scratched her in a fit of rage..."
Lin Sushuang also hugged Sheng Hong's thigh and begged for mercy: "Yes, my lord, it is normal for sisters to fight among themselves. After I go back, I will definitely punish Mo Lan severely."
Mrs. Sheng saw that Sheng Hong seemed to be acting strangely, and she said in an angry tone: "Master, if the family is restless, it will bring trouble to three generations. If you are going to treat such a serious matter lightly, what will she do to her husband's family in the future?"
Can the Lord continue to cover up the matter?"
Sheng Hong was startled, and quickly threw Lin Sushuang away and slapped the table: "Come here, drag this evil beast down, beat it with twenty boards, lock it in the ancestral hall, and keep it for three months as a warning."
Follow suit!"
Lin Sushuang screamed and fainted to the ground. She didn't know whether it was pretending or acting, but this time Sheng Hong didn't take care of her anymore.
Ming Lan's originally silently weeping expression turned into a sneer as Mo Lan screamed.
.......
"Minglan was injured? Is it serious?"
Gu Tingye was not on duty today and originally came to Qin Hao for a drink, but Yu Yanran told her that Minglan's face was scratched.
Yu Yanran said with a sad face: "There is a cut on my face. I don't know if it can be cured. If it can't be cured, you can find a lover again. She doesn't want to delay you."
Gu Tingye became anxious when he heard this: "Am I the kind of person who is greedy for beauty? No matter whether it can be cured or not, I will definitely stick to Minglan!"
"Shitou, prepare your horses and go to Sheng Mansion."
Looking at Gu Tingye's hurried away figure, Qin Hao pinched Yu Yanran's chin: "Look, you made my cousin anxious."
Yu Yanran chuckled: "Isn't this also to test whether he is sincere to Minglan?"
In fact, the injury on Minglan's face was not serious, and the wound healed quickly after applying medicine.
Traditional Chinese medicine and herbal medicine are often more effective than Western medicine in healing such small wounds. Of course, if the wound is too large or too deep, it will not be able to compare with Western medicine's suture therapy.
