Mother and daughter reborn and swap bodies, both of them went crazy

Chapter 238 Sheng Minmin mentioned the Huang family tragedy

Peony Courtyard.

When Sheng Minmin received the news and her people just arrived at the village, a child from the village found someone shouting for help in the pond.

The child was so frightened that he started crying loudly. By the time others heard the noise and rushed over, it was too late...

When a drowning person is pulled out of the water, it is the fragrance...

Something really happened to Qingxiang...

The uncomfortable premonition that had been lingering in my heart turned into reality.

And it was really such a coincidence that Qingxiang died right after her people arrived?!

Sheng Minmin had a sticky and sick feeling as if someone was secretly watching her.

She thought a lot about the poison in Aunt Ruan's body, the way she poisoned him, the threat to Qingxiang, and the fact that she had killed Qingxiang in the manor without anyone noticing...

All these methods show that the person behind the scenes has no shortage of financial, material, human and wisdom resources, and he is a very dangerous person!

She asked someone to call Sheng Mingshu and Aunt Ruan over. When they learned that Qingxiang had drowned and the clues were gone, they both fell silent and looked very unhappy.

Sheng Minmin sighed in her heart.

Although she was the one who reminded Sheng Mingshu that Aunt Ruan was poisoned, it was her former maid Qingxiang who instructed Wen Yan to poison Aunt Ruan.

Now, just when we sent people to look for Qingxiang, something happened to Qingxiang, and it happened on her farm...

If you think about it deeply, you may think she directed and acted in it herself...

Over the years, she has been estranged from Sheng Yong, and has not been very close to her "real sons", but has been very kind to her two "illegitimate sons"...

She seemed to have given up both the identities of "wife" and "mother", so the servants behind her were more or less confused.

Some people think she is stupid, some people think she might be planning something...

Will Sheng Mingshu and Aunt Ruan also have doubts in their hearts? Now with Qingxiang's matter...

Sheng Minmin couldn't guarantee that Aunt Ruan and Sheng Mingshu would still trust her as firmly as before in their hearts...

However, everything in the world often has good and bad in it, and bad and good in it.

The Qingxiang incident might alienate the relationship between her and Aunt Ruan and her son.

But if handled well, she felt it might make them better allies.

Sheng Minmin felt that this was a good time to explain why she was "drifting apart" from Sheng Yong and Sheng Mingjian and his brothers, and she had already thought of the reason.

"Qingying, Qingdai, the two of you go and guard the door!"

Sheng Minmin ordered Qingying and Qingdai to go out immediately.

There were only three people left in the room at this time. Sheng Minmin looked at the closed doors and windows and said seriously.

"I have been estranged from Sheng Yong in the past few years, and I have not been able to care for Sheng Mingjian and his brothers. Do you know why?"

Aunt Ruan looked surprised, as if she didn't expect her to suddenly change the subject.

Sheng Mingshu was also stunned for a moment and asked with some confusion.

"Mother...what do you want to say?"

"I want to tell you something, but it's just my guess. I have no evidence. You can decide for yourself whether to listen to it or not."

Her expression and tone made people realize that what she was going to say next might be dangerous.

So as soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn and serious.

After a while, Sheng Mingshu asked.

"Is the matter that mother wants to talk about... related to my aunt's poisoning and Qingxiang's death?"

"I'm not sure, maybe yes and maybe no."

Aunt Ruan and Sheng Mingshu looked at each other and understood each other's meaning.

If she hadn't been careful about the matter of the withered grass, Aunt Ruan would have really died.

Now that they are at the center of the vortex, the more information they know, the safer they will be. They can no longer continue to turn a deaf ear to it.

They both nodded and said.

"Ma'am, please speak."

"Mother, please speak"

Sheng Minmin took a deep breath and said.

"I suspect there was something fishy about the Huang family's tragedy."

These words were like a thunderclap, suddenly exploding in the room.

Aunt Ruan's eyes were filled with horror, and Sheng Mingshu's expression also changed drastically.

When the Huang family tragedy happened, Aunt Ruan had already entered the mansion and therefore knew about it.

Sheng Mingshu should have heard it from Aunt Ruan.

At that time, the Huang family was not the richest in the world, but they were also quite wealthy.

Although there are four classes of people, scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants have a low status.

But if the merchant is wealthy enough and offers a generous dowry, there will still be many officials willing to marry him.

It’s just that officials are only willing to give her the status of a concubine.

But Huang's father loved his daughter deeply and did not want her to be a concubine, so he made plans for Huang Yaning very early on.

People outside also knew that Huang's father was reluctant to let his daughter become a concubine, so no one came to force Huang Yaning to be a concubine.

Before Huang Yaning came of age, the Sheng family asked a matchmaker to come and propose marriage.

The Sheng family was dwindling in population, had no clan members to protect them, and had no ancestral property, so they lived in extreme poverty. In the eyes of others, Sheng Yong was not a good candidate for a husband.

However, Mr. Huang has a different opinion on this.

Mr. Huang thought that lack of money was not a big deal. The Huang family had plenty of money.

As for the Sheng family, having a simple population has its own advantages.

The daughter of a merchant had a low status, and if she married into a family with a large population.

My daughter doesn't know how many elders and sisters-in-law will ridicule her. She must be having a hard time if she suffers every day.

If she marries into the Sheng family, not only will there be no sisters-in-law, but also no other elders. There will only be a sensible and easy-going mother-in-law. Then her daughter will be the mistress of the family after she marries there!

Sheng Yong is quite talented and handsome. My daughter will definitely have a bright future if she follows him!

After some consideration, Mr. Huang nodded and agreed to the marriage. Half a year later, he gave a generous dowry and married Huang Yaning into the Sheng family.

But a few years later, Mr. Huang, his son and grandson went out and encountered bandits, and all died.

Upon hearing the bad news, Huang Xianjing's mother committed suicide, leaving behind the baby Huang Xianjing.

Later, Sheng Yong took action and the government captured several bandits.

The bandits did not plead guilty, but the police found the Huang family's property among the stolen goods, so the case was closed.

Then, Huang Xianjing was taken back to Sheng Mansion, and all the Huang family's property was handed over to Sheng Yong...

"Ma'am...you are doubting..."

Aunt Ruan's body and voice trembled slightly. She twisted the handkerchief in her hands and still didn't dare to say those two words.

Sheng Minmin nodded, talking to smart people is simple.

She only said one sentence, and both of them understood.

“I only started to doubt him in recent years.

"My 'father' and 'brother' have been doing business for many years. They know exactly which road is occupied by which mountain top and how much toll is required. How could they be killed suddenly when they were fine for many years?

"And if they are really bandits, they are just after money.

"I know my family's character, they would definitely be willing to give up all their money and goods to save their lives.

"Bandits can get their property without having to fight with guards, so why would they take the greater risk of killing people? After killing someone, why don't they just run away and wait for the government to catch them?

"The bandits who were beheaded by the government never confessed their crimes..."

“Also, my sister-in-law’s death was strange…

"A mother is strong. She was with Sister Xian at the time, and Sister Xian was so young. Even for Sister Xian, she should have lived well. Why did she commit suicide?

"I was too sad to think about it before, but now I think about it..."
