Sheng Molan recalled that in her previous life, Sheng Hong died before she was ten years old, and it was Concubine Liu who killed her. When she mentioned it unintentionally, she was very envious of Concubine Liu's high-level tactics, even daring to murder his legitimate daughter. Sheng Huaizhong even divorced his wife for her.

Sheng Molan had a strange smile on her face, a smile that was out of place on a little girl. Then she picked up a pen and paper, wrote a line of words, and asked Guo'er to hand it to the lady in the main courtyard.

Li Yuxin was sorting out the accounts in the shop when Lushui came in and said, "Madam, the second young lady sent a servant to deliver a letter."

Li Yuxin was very puzzled. What was Sheng Molan up to? She took the envelope, tore it open, and immediately turned the paper upside down on the table. She ordered in a deep voice: "Everyone, leave."

After everyone left, Li Yuxin turned the letter over and read it again, then looked towards Sheng Molan's yard with sharp eyes.

Li Yuxin burned the letter and called Nanfeng.

Two days later, Sheng Molan died of a cold, and she no longer had the chance to display all the abilities she hadn't had the chance to display.

Because she died young, the second daughter of the Sheng family could not be buried in the ancestral tomb. She was hastily buried in the wilderness, and the funeral was completed in one day. Except for Sheng Huaizhong and Concubine Yan who showed some concern, no one else cared at all.

Li Yuxin was also very calm. No matter how great the opportunity was for Sheng Molan, as long as she threatened her, she could not keep her any longer.

When Sheng Wei returned home, it had been seven days since he passed the imperial examination. He went to his teacher's hometown to pay a visit and stayed there for three days to listen to his teachings.

The Sheng family held a grand banquet this time, and Old Man Li, who had a deep relationship with Old Man Sheng, came first. Accompanying him were the couple from the eldest wife of the Li family and four legitimate sons and daughters.

The eldest wife of the Li family's first wife was very enthusiastic when she saw Li Yuxin. Every third sentence she spoke was praising Sheng Wei, and every second was praising her legitimate daughter, Li Pan'er. Li Yuxin didn't respond. In her past life, she despised Sheng Wei, and it was natural not to want her daughter to suffer. Li Yuxin didn't blame her. If Sheng Hong's future husband was like that, she would also try to prevent her daughter from marrying.

However, Sheng Wei is different in this life, and it is impossible for him to arrange marriage with the Li family.

Seeing that Li Yuxin didn't respond and kept saying that Sheng Wei was young and needed to focus on his studies, the eldest lady of the Li family was very worried. She gave Li Pan'er a look, and Li Pan'er understood and said to go find Sheng Hong and Sheng Yun to play together.

Li Yuxin saw that the eldest lady of the Li family had changed her strategy and she didn't agree with it. She also wanted to see if she could make Sheng Hong more cautious this time.

Li Pan'er had a sweet face, evidently one who had been pampered. Because of her young age, she still had some baby fat, but it wasn't unattractive; rather, she looked adorable and charming. She quickly became friends with the Sheng Hong sisters, and they agreed to visit each other in the future.

Because it was a buffet, there was a lot to do. Sheng Hong, who was ten years old this year, was also assigned some tasks by Li Yuxin. One of them was to entertain the young female guests, and another was to protect herself and her sister Sheng Yun.

Li Yuxin sent Mother Liu to accompany the two of them, while she and Nanfeng handled various banquet matters together. After the buffet ended three days later, Li Yuxin was so tired that she collapsed on the bed and did not move.

Lu Shui was massaging Li Yuxin. Li Yuxin suddenly sat up and asked, "What day is it today?"

Lu Shui thought for a moment and then answered carefully, "Madam, today is August 13th."

Li Yuxin sighed softly and continued to lie down, thinking a lot in her mind.
