Chapter 82 Lin Qinshuang plays the victim and gets the wish from Madam Kong

Wei Ruixuan.

Wang Ruofu pulled Madam Kong to sit down and said kindly:
"I've been waiting for a long time, and finally the nanny has arrived!"

After saying that, Wang Ruofu glanced at Hualan, Minglan and Rulan who had just been called over, and signaled them to call for help.

"Granny Kong, long live the good health!" The three girls saluted together.

"These are our three useless daughters. They have been spoiled since they were young and have never seen the world. If they are not good enough in class, I hope that Madam will take their young age into consideration and slowly teach them a lesson."

Wang Ruofu saw that Madam Kong did not reply, so she continued, "You can beat me or scold me, but as a mother, I will never feel sorry for you."

"You are too modest, madam. The three girls are all ladies from noble families. Their bearing and character are extraordinary."

Madam Kong said modestly, "I am an old woman, but I have been lucky enough to stay in the palace for a few more years. I have seen more than others and know a little about tasting incense and making tea. If the girls are willing to learn, I will definitely teach them everything I know."

"Hurry up and thank Mammy!"

"Thank you, mama!"

Madam Kong nodded, turned to look at Hua Lan, and asked with certainty in her tone:
"This is your eldest daughter, Hualan, right?"

"Yes, it's Hualan!" Wang Ruofu's face was full of joy.

Hualan also nodded obediently in agreement.

"I've heard about her before, and seeing her today, I can see that she has the demeanor of a lady, really extraordinary."

Wang Ruofu was just about to say a few polite words on Hualan's behalf.

At this moment, he inadvertently glanced and caught a glimpse of Lin Qinshuang and her personal maid Xue Niang standing outside Weiruixuan.

At this time, the two of them were standing at the door of Weiruixuan, wandering back and forth, looking inside the door from time to time. It seemed that they had heard the news that Grandma Kong was coming home from somewhere, and they were standing outside the door looking forward to it.

Wang Ruofu's heart sank immediately, and she looked at Mother Liu who had just turned around.

Mother Liu immediately understood, nodded, and tiptoed out from behind the screen.

Mother Liu walked out of the main room.

He immediately called two maids and asked them to stand by with brooms and buckets.

He walked out holding a basin full of water.

When she came to Lin Qinshuang, Madam Liu said with a fake smile: "The mistress has a distinguished guest to entertain, so it's better for me to go back by myself."

Lin Qinshuang forced a smile and said, "I have something important to discuss with you, Madam. I'll be leaving soon."

"No need for that!" Mother Liu said bluntly.

Lin Qinshuang was still unwilling to say:

"I heard from the servants that a noble from the palace just came to our house? Came to teach Hualan the rules?"

"So what?"

Mother Liu curled her lips slightly and said unhappily, "I don't know where this gossip came from."

Lin Qinshuang was ridiculed in person by Liu's mother. Although she was angry, she forced herself to suppress her anger for the sake of her daughter Molan.

"I just looked inside and saw that besides Hualan, Minglan and Rulan were also inside?"

"Just speak directly if you have something to say. I, a humble servant, cannot understand any beating around the bush."

"..."

Being repeatedly rebuked by a servant, Lin Qinshuang's chest rose and fell violently, and finally she let out a long sigh of relief: "Minglan and Rulan can go to listen to Madam Kong's class, why can't I, Molan?"

"why?"

Madam Liu glanced at Lin Qinshuang and said calmly, "Rulan is the eldest sister's biological sister, the legitimate daughter of the family, and Minglan was raised by the old lady. Why do you think so?"

"They are all daughters of the Sheng family. Isn't this favoritism?"

"That's right!" Xue Niang also muttered.

"I am just a servant. I don't know how to favor one over the other. If I don't leave..."

As she spoke, Mother Liu took out a copper basin filled with water and sprinkled the water in front of Lin Qinshuang:
"Somebody come!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two maids from Weiruixuan walked out of the door, holding brooms and buckets and began to clean the place where Lin Qinshuang was standing.

With every step he took, he drove Lin Qinshuang and Xue Niang away in panic.

"You filthy slave! You call Mistress Wang Ruofu Mistress, but you don't act like a Mistress at all. You're afraid that I, Mo'er, will steal her daughter's limelight."

"Don't be angry, little girl. We have other ways."

"My Mo'er is pitiful. She was born in my belly. With her talent, if I were the first wife, there would be no need to worry about her having no future."

Lin Qinshuang said bitterly: "Even if I have to force her, I will force her into Madam Kong's class!"

"Yes, yes, girl, there must be a way." Xue Niang echoed.

inside the house.

When Mama Kong saw that Wang Ruofu and Mama Liu suddenly had strange expressions, and then Mama Liu stepped out, she had already vaguely guessed the reasons.

I guess it's what Old Madam Sheng just said, that concubine is doing mischief outside.

Since Old Madam Sheng not only asked me to teach the rules, she also asked me to come to the Sheng family to regulate the temper of the younger generation.

The three girls in this room all seem generally good.

Just a little training will make you successful.

Except for the girl in the middle who looked a little lazy, it was not a big deal.

It seems that she must be the daughter of the concubine.

Although Nanny Kong guessed the reason, she did not intend to take the initiative to include the concubine's daughter.

Firstly, the one who is in charge of the rear house is the mistress of the house after all.

She was an outsider, and even though she was invited politely, it was not easy for her to take the initiative to add others.

Secondly, if the concubine is really as Old Madam Sheng said, she would probably be able to find a way to get her daughter in, and then she could just go with the flow.

night.

Linqi Pavilion.

Lin Qinshuang personally poured wine for Sheng Hong.

Sheng Hong took a sip of wine and said with a little tipsiness: "Looking at beauties under the lamp and flowers under the moon, there is a special charm!"

"I'm old." Lin Qinshuang gently brushed her bangs at her temples and said in a pretentious manner.

"Not old."

Sheng Hong said: "Even if a few decades pass, you will still be a beauty in my heart."

"Are you serious, Honglang? If I really meet someone younger and prettier than me in the future, wouldn't you be tempted?"

"There are many beauties, but there are few beauties like you who are full of talent and considerate."

Sheng Hong always prided himself on being a romantic and elegant man. When he sighed to the moon, "The moon waxes and wanes," Wang Ruofu was unable to respond with "People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions." She also didn't understand that her husband was lamenting the impermanence of life. She could only reply with an irrelevant sentence, "Today is not the fifteenth day of the lunar month, so of course the moon is not round."

Because of this, Wang Ruofu couldn't get into her husband's heart. But Lin Qinshuang knew how to cater to men's vanity.

In comparison, Lin Qinshuang made Sheng Hong feel like he had met true love.

Then Lin Qinshuang threw herself into Sheng Hong's arms, and they began to talk about the sweet words they said when they first met and fell in love.

After the sensational speech, Sheng Hong's eyes were full of affection, and he said emotionally:
"Shuang'er, in my heart, you will always be number one!"

Lin Qinshuang then said that she had never regretted becoming Sheng Hong's concubine.

"Shuang'er, I will never let you regret it!"

"I don't regret it. Feng'er and Mo'er are both so well-behaved and obedient. It's all because of you, Honglang, that I have a good life!"

Lin Qinshuang then changed the subject and said, "It's just...it's just that Mo'er has been crying a lot these past few days, and I'm worried that she's going to get hurt."

Sheng Hong was in a very happy mood when he heard Lin Qinshuang say this. His face changed immediately and he asked:

"Huh? What happened to her?"

"Of course it was the maids from the palace who came. Hualan, Minglan, and Rulan all went, but they didn't let Moer go."

"Hualan has to follow the rules. Rulan and Minglan are two young and ignorant girls, so they naturally have to follow some rules. Mo'er is the most sensible, so she doesn't need to go. Just wait until the school reopens and continue to attend classes."

Seeing that Sheng Hong had no intention of stepping forward, Lin Qinshuang's eyes flickered and she came up with a plan.

"Today I saw the nanny coming. I had never seen a noble lady in the palace before, and I wanted to see how beautiful she was, but the eldest lady drove me away. That was not enough. The eldest lady also scolded me, saying that I was a seductive woman who seduced the young master and was not worthy of seeing the noble lady in the palace."

Sheng Hong frowned: "Did she scold you again?"

"It's okay, but I feel sorry for Mo'er. She has everything, but she was born in my belly and can't even listen to rules and teachings. I really hate it in my heart. I met Honglang too late. You already have a wife, and I don't want to leave you, so I can only be your concubine, and even implicate my own child."

As Lin Qinshuang spoke, she turned her body and covered her face with tears, "If...if my Mo'er was born in the madam's belly, it would be great."

Sheng Hong originally felt that his "true love" Lin Qinshuang had been forced to become his concubine, and he felt guilty about it.

Now hearing Lin Qinshuang say this, I felt even more guilty.

"Okay, don't cry anymore." Sheng Hong gently hugged Lin Qinshuang and comforted her.

"Honglang, tell me, does the Madam hate you because I am favored, so she doesn't allow Mo'er to go to Madam Kong..."

Sheng Hong stood up with a bang and said angrily:
"She can't be my master yet!"

"Yes, fortunately it's Hiro who is in charge."

After hearing this, Sheng Hong felt a little hesitant and then paced around the room thinking. But when he saw Lin Qinshuang still crying, looking aggrieved and unable to speak, he immediately looked at her.

In this family, my words still count!

the next day.

Sheng Hong came to Weiruixuan.

I was just about to go in and talk to Wang Ruofu.

But as soon as he reached the door, he began to hesitate.

After thinking for a moment, he looked inside twice like a thief.

After much hesitation, he turned around and went to Shou'an Hall.

In Shou'an Hall.

After Sheng Hong entered the room, he said nothing, but helped Old Lady Sheng to taste the incense and press the ashes.

Old Mrs. Sheng saw through it but didn't say anything, and just minded her own business.

After thinking for a long time, Sheng Hong carefully glanced at Old Madam Sheng before he took the initiative to speak: "The provincial examination is coming soon, and the private school at home has been suspended. Mo'er stayed in the room alone, and was quite worried about her elder sister and two younger sisters who were about to go out."

Old Mrs. Sheng just listened quietly, but did not respond to the conversation started by Sheng Hong.

At this point, Sheng Hong had no choice but to say, "All the girls in the family have gone to Nanny Kong's class, and only Mo'er is staying in the room alone. Why not let Mo'er go to Nanny's class as well?"

Old Madam Sheng was calm and composed, and said softly, "The eldest lady is the housekeeper of the family. It is up to the eldest lady to decide who will go to Madam Kong's class. I can't break the rules."

Sheng Hong continued to speak.

But Old Lady Sheng slowly shook her head, blew gently towards the green smoke rising from the burning agarwood in her hand, and looked as if she would say nothing more.

Sheng Hong had no choice but to bow, then got up and left Shou'an Hall.

Seeing that Old Lady Sheng was unwilling to show up, Sheng Hong had no choice but to find Wang Ruofu.

"My sisters at home have all gone to listen to the lessons of Grandma Kong. Mo'er is alone. Why not let Mo'er go to listen to the lessons of Grandma Kong as well?"

When Wang Ruofu heard this, she was about to refute, but was quietly stopped by Mother Liu who was standing beside her.

Only then did he secretly suppress his temper and forced a smile.

Seeing that Wang Ruofu didn't lose her temper, Sheng Hong continued, "This Madam Kong is from the palace. Her vision and knowledge are even better than you and me. It is a great blessing for our daughter of the Sheng family to be taught by her. In this case, we should treat them equally and not show favoritism."

Hearing "favoring one over the other", even with Mama Liu pulling her back, Wang Ruofu couldn't suppress the frustration and resentment in her heart, and said angrily: "Who is favoring one over the other? The distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children has been reversed for decades. Now Mama Kong is here to teach the rules, which will be useful for marrying into a royal family in the future. Only Rulan is qualified to listen. Minglan is benefiting from her mother's help, and Molan is benefiting from whose help?"

"The light of that lowly maid Lin Qinshuang?"

"Shut up!"

Hearing Wang Ruofu insulting his "true love" again, Sheng Hong could no longer suppress his anger and said angrily: "You are also a lady, how can you be so vicious.

Why are you so unwilling to tolerate others? After all, Molan is also a daughter of my Sheng family. "

At this time, Nanny Kong, who had been listening outside for a while, smiled gently and walked in.

Seeing this, Wang Ruofu and Sheng Hong all restrained their tempers and said with smiles on their faces:
"Madame Kong is here. Thank you for your hard work!"

"I'm sorry to trouble you for the sake of my Sheng family's useless daughters. Please take a seat."

"I heard it was so lively when I came here just now." Nanny Kong sat down and said softly.

When the family scandal was heard by outsiders, Wang Ruofu and Sheng Hong immediately showed embarrassed looks on their faces.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Madam."

Sheng Hong thought about it and said, "There is another daughter in my Sheng family, born to my concubine Lin."

"She heard that Mammy was here, and she wanted to be with Mammy and listen to her teachings."

"Yes, I have heard that the girls of the Sheng family are all well-educated, smart and pretty."

Madam Kong said, "In the past few days, I have seen the eldest, fifth, and sixth girls, but I have never seen the fourth girl."

But how could Wang Ruofu make Sheng Hong fulfill his wish?

"Mammy is old, how can I let you suffer so much?"

Madam Kong said, "Madam, you don't have to be polite. I can handle it. I'm old now and I like the hustle and bustle. With one more child, the class will be a little more lively."

"Yes Yes Yes."

Sheng Hong smiled and agreed, glanced at Wang Ruofu, and then said, "In that case, I'll let Madam take care of it."

"You are Welcome."

Now that things have come to this, Wang Ruofu has already lost face, so it is not appropriate for her to continue arguing and she can only swallow her anger.
