Chapter 80 Breakup
"Ming'er~" When they returned to Fanlou, they saw Mingxi waiting downstairs. When she saw Mingxi, she rushed over and hugged Minglan.
"Mother, I'm fine! Don't cry!" Minglan was also very distressed when she saw Mingxi crying.
"You scared me to death. I really thought that my arrival triggered the butterfly effect and that you would have to endure some other hardships! Ahhh~ I was scared to death!" Mingxi ignored Minglan's comfort and who was around. She spoke out everything in her heart and cried without any image.
Qi Heng... Zheng Xiao... Zhang Guifen...
all three of them were in a state of confusion. Qi Heng really didn't expect that his sixth sister's aunt had such a side. Except for the first time she looked at him unkindly, she was always quiet and dignified when he saw her in the mansion. Today was really an eye-opener for him. Zheng Xiao didn't expect to see this scene either. He could only sigh at the deep love between mother and daughter. Zhang Guifen admired in her heart: her voice was loud and full of energy. If she wasn't too old, she would be a good candidate for martial arts! She also sighed that only a generous and unpretentious mother could teach a straightforward and lovely daughter. Very good! Very good!
Minglan didn't expect her mother to cry so miserably. Listening to the meaning of her words, although she didn't quite understand what the butterfly effect meant, it was not difficult to guess that her mother blamed herself for getting separated. "Mother, please don't cry. Today I am lucky in disguise. Not only did I not get hurt, but I also made two new friends."
The crying stopped abruptly. Mingxi opened her eyes and met a pair of bright eyes. What a graceful girl. Yes, graceful. Mingxi could see the chivalrous spirit in her.
"Mother, this is Guifen. She is the daughter of the Duke of England." Minglan introduced her. Guifen? This down-to-earth name had been complained about many times when she was watching TV series. Mingxi slowly turned her head and looked at the boy next to her, "Isn't this General Zheng?"
Zheng Xiao was terrified and hurriedly performed an evening greeting, "Hello, Madam. My surname is Zheng and my given name is Xiao. I don't deserve the title of General." After he finished speaking, he was surprised again. How did this lady know that his surname was Zheng? He had never met this lady before.
"You deserve it, you deserve it! I will be in the future!" Mingxi said with a smile.
"Mother, they sent me back. I met Brother Yuanruo on the way, and we came back together." Minglan said again.
Mingxi returned to normal and thanked several people in turn. Zhang Guifen and Zheng Xiao saw that the people had been sent, so they said goodbye and returned to the private room they had booked.
Qi Heng went to the private room of the Sheng family. He had to stay with the mother and daughter before Sheng Hong or Chang Bai came back, and he also had to see that Mo Lan and Ru Lan came back safely.
...
The private room of the Kang family in the Eight Immortals Building
Wang Ruoyu sat by the window and looked down at the couple downstairs, with a mocking smile on his face, "How is your sister in the Sheng family? Is your brother-in-law as considerate and thoughtful as always?" Wang Ruoyu turned around and asked the eldest lady.
The eldest lady smiled and tried to pass it off, "Isn't it just like that? Life is just like that, there's nothing good or bad about it."
"I remember that your sister has a few illegitimate sons and daughters in her house!" Wang Ruoyu was unyielding.
The eldest lady was not happy to be asked. Her elder sister was the most favored by her mother. When she was in the family, she always suppressed her. The husband she originally found seemed to be from a famous family, but who knew that the family had declined. Uncle Kang even took a room full of concubines and maids, and had many illegitimate sons and daughters. Not only that, he was also a person who did not want to make progress. He did not make much progress in his official career or family business. This made Wang Ruoyu, who was used to being strong, very difficult to accept. On the other hand, Sheng Hong, whom the eldest lady married, was handsome and capable. He rose from the bottom step by step. When they first got married, the couple had a good relationship, which made Wang Ruoyu jealous. Even the children she gave birth to were not as good as those of the eldest lady. It was only after Ruolan was born that Wang Ruoyu regained some balance. In her eyes, Ruolan was as stupid as the eldest lady.
But she looked down on this sister and liked to ask her out to compare with her. Just now, she saw Sheng Hong and a woman being intimate. Wang Ruoyu guessed that it was Sheng Hong's concubine. While her eldest lady was out, she took the concubine out to have fun. Seeing her sister's stupid look who knew nothing, Wang Ruoyu was very happy and deliberately made a sarcasm to her.
"My husband has only taken two concubines, and one has been sent back to Yuyang, so he still has one by his side, which is good enough. My Hua'er and Bai'er are ambitious, and they are not afraid of illegitimate sons and daughters. They will be helpful to them in the future." The eldest lady was angry when she was asked, and her words were a bit threatening.
Wang Ruoyu sneered, thinking of the scene she just saw. She didn't intend to tell her sister, so she let her be kept in the dark. She was waiting to see which concubine would surpass her! The previous concubine could suppress her sister, so this one can definitely do it! Wang Ruoyu thought fiercely.
There was a hurried knock on the door, and Wang Ruoyu called someone in. The maid who came in wanted to run to the eldest lady and whisper something, but Wang Ruoyu spoke at this time, "What are you talking about? How can I, as your sister, not listen to it?"
The eldest lady couldn't stand the provocation, and said to the maid, "Okay, there are no outsiders here, just say it!"
The maid glanced at Wang Ruoyu at the window and the two girls in the room, and gritted her teeth and said, "Madam, several girls are missing?"
The eldest lady stood up suddenly, "Several girls are missing? Where is Ruer?"
"Several girls were watching a show together, and the fire-breathing one lost his hand, and the crowd became chaotic and scattered the girls!"
"Aren't there people following the girls?" The eldest lady was anxious.
"Originally they followed, but there were too many people at the show, so the servants stood a little further away from the girls. The crowd rushed in, and in the blink of an eye, several girls disappeared."
After hearing what the maid said, the lady almost fainted, but Wang Ruoyu still said something sarcastic at this time, "It must be that Ruolan was playful and got the sisters into trouble. Alas! I don't know if she can be found safely? Even if she is found, can she still marry into a good family?" Wang Ruoyu actually spilled out all her thoughts. When she said this, even her two biological sons looked at her in suspicion.
The eldest lady was furious, "Sister, are you still talking like a human being? Something happened to your niece, and instead of offering to help, you cursed her?"
Wang Ruoyu felt a little uncomfortable. She was no match for Wang Ruofu in every way. She finally knew that her young lady was going to be in trouble, but she unconsciously forgot to pretend. "My words are not unreasonable, but they make sense. What are you arguing with me about? Go find your troublesome daughter. If you don't hurry up, you may not be able to see him alive again!"
More vicious words came out of Wang Ruoyu's mouth, and the lady almost fainted. After she recovered her breath, she said resolutely, "I don't think I have done anything to let you down, but you are so cruel, it's really chilling. From now on, our sisterhood is over, and we will go our separate ways!" After the lady finished speaking, she took the Sheng family away.
