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

On the other side, Sheng Mingzhu from Haitangyuan was in a good mood.

Given Fifth Brother's personality, he will definitely have conflicts with Mother, so even if Mother doesn't like her as much as before, she will not reduce her expenses in order to prevent Fifth Brother from doing something wrong.

She can also take this opportunity to act nice in front of her mother and be a caring little girl.

If she waits a little longer, she can rush to Mudanyuan to save the situation.

Sheng Mingzhu never expected that Sheng Mingbo did not quarrel with Sheng Minmin, and Sheng Minmin did not punish Sheng Mingbo, and even asked Sheng Mingbo to produce evidence.

The people in the small kitchen had already received Qingtian's reminder and prepared the evidence.

So when Sheng Mingbo saw the things brought in from the small kitchen of Haitangyuan, he looked incredulous, because he could smell the sweet aroma of the bowl of osmanthus stuffed dumplings from a long distance away.

He thought the cooks were playing tricks until someone brought the ingredients for Sheng Mingzhu's dinner and the record book of what Sheng Mingzhu usually ate. Only after Sheng Mingbo saw it did he shut up.

"Madam, you are considerate of Miss Six. Miss Six has six dishes for each meal; you should have prepared two cold dishes and four hot dishes.

"However, since Miss Six doesn't like cold dishes and prefers desserts, the cold dishes will be replaced with a soup, a dessert, and four hot dishes."

This matter had been reported to Huang Yaning by the people in the small kitchen of Haitangyuan before. Sheng Minmin found it in her memory and nodded.

Sheng Minmin casually flipped through a few pages of Sheng Mingzhu's dining record book. Compared with the delicacies from land and sea in the past, the dishes these days were indeed much more "shabby", but much better than those of Sheng Mingbo's legitimate sons.

"The old slaves cook carefully every day, never cutting corners, and dare not treat the master harshly..."

Sheng Minmin found that Mother Liu was an interesting person. She looked likable, would cry at any time, and could speak eloquently and clearly while crying.

"Old Five, do you have anything else to say?" Sheng Minmin looked at Sheng Mingbo.

Sheng Mingbo didn't know what to say. His mind was a little confused. It seemed that his little sister's behavior clearly indicated that there was something wrong with these servants.

But the evidence is before us that these slaves did not do anything to deceive their masters.

Could it be that he misunderstood?

At this time, Sheng Mingzhu also came to the Peony Courtyard. As soon as she entered the yard, she was dumbfounded.

In addition to Sheng Mingbo, Sheng Mingzhu also saw Sheng Mingli, Sheng Mingshu, and Huang Xianjing.

In the middle of the yard, several mothers from her small kitchen were kneeling, surrounded by a group of servants, watching the show with great interest...

Sheng Mingzhu suddenly had a very bad feeling.

"Sixth girl is here."

Sheng Minmin looked at Sheng Mingzhu with a smile, feeling amused at how unlucky Sheng Mingzhu was.

Because there are more than just people from the Sheng family in the mansion today, it's a good opportunity to let people outside see what Sheng Mingzhu is all about.

"Mom, what's going on?"

Sheng Mingzhu asked after greeting, with an unnatural expression on her face.

"Your fifth brother said that the servants in your yard treated you harshly?"

"Mother, that's not the case. I think Fifth Brother misunderstood..."

Sheng Mingzhu quickly denied it.

Sheng Mingzhu knew very well whether the cook treated her harshly or not. She really didn't expect her mother and fifth brother to be so calm and even call the cook over to confront her.

This confrontation would naturally reveal the truth, and Sheng Mingzhu suddenly regretted the plan he had set up today. It was too hasty and had too many loopholes.

"Little sister, but I..."

Sheng Mingbo was interrupted by Sheng Mingzhu as soon as he opened his mouth, "Fifth brother, I know you came to see mother because of my birthday..."

Hearing this, Sheng Mingbo remembered that he had not yet told his mother about his younger sister's birthday party.

"Mother, my little sister's birthday is coming soon. Why hasn't the mansion prepared anything yet?"

Sheng Mingzhu’s birthday?

Sheng Minmin really hadn't thought about this. After all, December 12th was not Sheng Mingzhu's birthday, but her birthday.

But she had never celebrated her birthday in the Feng family in her previous life, and she hadn't celebrated it since returning to the Sheng Mansion.

Because every time her birthday came around after she returned home, she would be punished to kneel in the ancestral hall for some unfounded crime...

Thinking of the memories of her past life, Sheng Minmin suddenly felt a bloodthirsty urge again. She really wanted to see the blood of her enemies...

I want to kill someone too...

Sheng Minmin said, touching her back teeth with the tip of her tongue.

"You all know about the conversation I had with your father a few days ago. Given the current situation in the mansion, I thought we wouldn't hold a big celebration this year. Let's celebrate on that day as a family. What do you think, Sixth Girl?"

"Mother..."

Sheng Mingzhu's face turned pale instantly, as if she had never expected such a situation.

In previous years, her mother would always hold a grand birthday party, which was even more lively than the Chinese New Year.

So her little sisters all look forward to her birthday party and are excited every time they attend it.

Praising her as a born lucky star, Sheng Mingzhu enjoyed everyone's envious gazes.

Last year, her nanny even suggested that she ask her mother to build a porridge stand outside the city on her birthday, and distribute porridge for three consecutive days...

After that, her name was not only spread among the powerful and wealthy, but ordinary people also began to know that there was a little fairy named Sheng Mingzhu in the Sheng Mansion, and they all praised her for her kindness!

The nurse told her that the more the family valued her, the better her reputation would be, and the greater the chance that she would marry into a rich family in the future...

In a few years she would reach the age where she could get married, and these few years would be a good time to make a name for herself and make connections.

Birthday parties are very important to her! Sheng Mingzhu didn't expect her mother to suddenly not want to hold a birthday party for her...

When her sisters get to know this news, they will laugh at her to death.

What if her reputation were to fall apart...

Thinking of the consequences, Sheng Mingzhu's tears fell like pearls from a broken string. She didn't look like she was acting, but was truly sad and desperate.

"Mother, how can this be possible?"

When Sheng Mingbo saw his younger sister like this, he quickly spoke loudly.

"Why can't it work?" Sheng Minmin's face suddenly darkened.

"Sixth girl, you are the only girl in the family. Your father and I have favored you since you were young, and raised you with precious gold and jade. Your monthly expenses for food, clothing, housing, transportation, and jewelry are as high as tens of thousands of taels.

“My expenses plus the expenses of your five brothers are not as much as yours alone!

"Just last month, your small kitchen cost 1600 taels of silver. Even your wet nurse was able to embezzle things worth tens of thousands of taels of silver..."

With every extra word Sheng Minmin said, Sheng Mingzhu's face turned paler, and at the same time she felt all kinds of strange looks coming from all around.

"Now our family is spending more than they earn, and there are only a little over 20,000 taels of silver in the public account. If we were to hold a birthday party for you alone according to the standards of previous years, it would cost at least 15,000 taels. This way, there would be no money left to give out bonuses to the servants during the New Year..."

At the end of every year, the Sheng Mansion would give out bonuses to the servants, and at least one extra month's salary...

This year, the Sheng Mansion cleared out a lot of servants, and the servants who stayed in the mansion thought that maybe the rewards during the New Year period this year would be doubled.

Only after hearing what the Madam said did I realize how difficult the situation is in the mansion, and yet Sixth Miss still insisted on holding a birthday party for herself. She is so selfish!

Therefore, the servants looked at Sheng Mingzhu with condemnation in their eyes, and some even looked at Sheng Mingzhu as if she were an enemy who was trying to steal their money!

Those gazes made Sheng Mingzhu feel ashamed and angry. She felt extremely upset and didn't know how things suddenly turned out like this. She could only look at Sheng Mingbo with tears in her eyes, asking for help.

"Mother, my little sister always has a great birthday party every year. If I don't have one this year, what will others think of me? They might even think something happened in our Sheng Mansion..."

"Snapped--"

Sheng Minmin put down the teacup in her hand heavily. She pretended to be overwhelmed by anger and spoke loudly. The voice was so loud that people outside the Peony Courtyard could hear it.

"The mouth is on someone else's body, how can you control what others say?

"I'm doing this for your own good. Your little sister is ignorant, so why are you also ignorant?

"If you continue to let your little sister live a life of luxury, will you three brothers still want to get married in a few years? Will your sister need a dowry when she gets married?"
