Chapter 84 Continuation

Mingxi stood up and walked to Molan. Seeing the left side of Molan's face, Mingxi was shocked. "Who hurt her? Who is so cruel to do such a heavy hand!" Mingxi looked at Molan's wound and was furious.

Madam Wu saw that Mingxi's concern for Molan was not fake, so she told her what happened before. Mingxi lifted Molan's chin and saw the bloodstain. She was very scared and thanked Madam Wu again. She wanted to ask someone to call a doctor, but she was concerned about the reputation of the girls, so she only asked someone to ask for some ice cream to apply on Molan's face. Madam Wu saw that she was meticulous and left with peace of mind.

After Madam Wu left, Mingxi treated Molan's wound and held her tightly in her arms. Molan finally cried freely.

Not long after Molan cried, a servant came to report that the fifth girl had returned home. At this point, all the lost girls of the Sheng family were found. Everyone went back home. Mingxi used a handkerchief to make a simple veil for Molan and Minglan, and then went downstairs to get on the carriage.

Not long after Mingxi brought Molan and Minglan back home, Sheng Hong and the eldest lady also returned home with Changbai and Changfeng. They sent back Mrs. Wu's people and sent someone to inform Qi Heng. He was called back to the mansion by Princess Pingning on the way. Before leaving, she told them to report to him if the girls were found. After everything was arranged, Sheng Hong looked at his daughters one by one. Ruolan had already gone to bed, and Sheng Hong didn't have the heart to blame them anymore. After Mingxi coaxed Molan and Ruolan to sleep, the masters of the Sheng family gathered again at the old lady's place to sort out today's events.

The eldest lady's eyes were swollen from crying. The old lady looked at her and sighed when she thought of Rulan's miserable condition. "Rulan suffered a lot today. She needs to take good care of herself." The eldest lady nodded in agreement, and tears could not stop flowing down again.

"I don't know who sent Ruer back? Does mother know?" The eldest lady suddenly asked the old lady as if she remembered something.

"What a coincidence, it was the young master of the Lin family who we met when we first arrived in Bianjing. His name is Lin Yunting." The old lady replied.

"It was him? That's really a coincidence!" Sheng Hong sighed.

"You really have to go to his house tomorrow to thank him. I heard from Rulan that he carried her all the way back. Rulan's leg was badly injured and she couldn't walk, so he carried her back. Rulan even said that he didn't let anyone see her face out of consideration for her. He is a thoughtful and steady person." The old lady praised him endlessly.

"My son will go to his house tomorrow to thank him!" Sheng Hong agreed.

"How are Molan and Minglan?" the old lady asked, and Sheng Hong and the eldest lady also looked at Mingxi.

"Minglan is fine. She was sent back by the youngest daughter of the Duke of Ying and the youngest son of General Zheng. On the way back, she met the young master again. She was frightened, but she didn't suffer much. But the fourth lady..." Mingxi finished talking about Minglan's situation and hesitated when talking about Molan.

"What's wrong with Molan?" The old lady saw that Mingxi was hesitant to speak, and suddenly became nervous. Even the eldest lady was flustered. "What happened?"

Mingxi recounted what the eldest lady Wu said to her, "...The fourth lady must be very upset."

"Those beasts!" The eldest lady cursed.

"I didn't expect that they would dare to be so rampant under the feet of the emperor, and this matter cannot be made public." The old lady hit the armrest of the chair and said with gritted teeth.

"It's just that they know this matter shouldn't be made public. Madam Wu didn't even say who the beast was."

Sheng Hong listened to them talking, with a tense face and no words, only his fists clenched tightly. "Where are Changbai and Changfeng? I asked them to take good care of the sisters, and they both took such good care of the sisters? Where are the servants they brought with them? They are all useless. So many people can't even protect three little girls, not even one. What's the use of them? They should all be dragged out and beaten with a stick!" Sheng Hong was furious.

Several women were frightened by him. Madam Wu wanted to say a few good words for her son, but when she thought of her little daughter's pitiful appearance, she felt that Changbai should be taught a lesson.

"You don't have to get so angry. After all, this was just an accident. No one could have expected the juggler to fail. Fortunately, the maids were smart and knew that they should go with the flow of people in the crowded crowd. If they had gone against the flow to look for him, they wouldn't know what situation they would be in now! The servants deserved to be punished, but it's too late to bother them today. Let's punish them all tomorrow so that they can learn a lesson. Several girls can't be protected alone! As for Changbai and Changfeng, you decide what to do. Just one thing, don't go now. You're angry now. If you beat your sons, no one in the family will be safe." The old lady comforted.

Sheng Hong calmed down a bit, and after the group had agreed,

they were about to leave, but Sheng Hong said, "Mother, I have something else to discuss with you." Seeing this, the eldest lady and Mingxi went back, leaving the space for the mother and son.

"What do you want to say to me? Why do you have to tell your wife and concubine?" the old lady asked directly.

"Mother, I want to bring Lin Qinshuang back!"

The old lady raised her eyebrows, but she was not surprised. "You want her to come back and take care of the fourth girl?"

"Yes! Molan encountered this, I am afraid she is upset, and her mother is not around, and there is no one to talk to." Sheng Hong explained.

"Isn't Molan in Wei's courtyard now? I remember that several maids like Wei very much, and Molan gets along well with Wei. Can't Wei comfort Molan?"

"Shuyi is good, and Mo'er likes her, but Shuyi still has Ming'er to take care of. Ming'er was also frightened this time. If both girls are with her, I'm afraid I will lose one while taking care of the other."

"I know you are doing this for the good of the fourth girl, but it will take at least a month to take a boat from Youyang to Bianjing. After a month, the fourth girl should have recovered."

"Mother!"

"Okay! If you really want to take her back, I can't stop you for the sake of the fourth girl. But after you bring her back, you must behave yourself. Don't indulge her anymore. The eldest lady was also raised like a treasure in the Wang family and gave birth to your children. You should give her the dignity of the eldest lady. Wei is also a good person. You should not treat her badly anymore."

"Remember, son! After you bring her back, place her in Molan's Lanxin Yazhu, and let her accompany Molan!"

"In that case, I'll do as you say! It's already mid-month, you should go back and have a rest!"

"It's my fault for disturbing your mother's rest! I hope you can sleep well. I'm leaving now."

After Sheng Hong left, the old lady sighed slightly. There might be trouble in the Sheng Mansion again!
