Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!

No one from the fourth and fifth branches of the Gu family came to Gu Tingyu's funeral, because Gu Tingbing and Gu Tingdi were both sentenced to exile, and the two branches blamed all the sins on the first branch.

Minglan's whole family was present, and Qi Heng also came with his wife Shen to help.

Some of the people who came to pay their respects were distant friends who had not seen each other for a long time. Seeing Qi Heng and Chang Bai busying around at the funeral, they thought that they were Gu Tingye’s second cousins.

After all the ceremonies were completed, Changbai and his family returned to Jiying Lane, but the entrance to the lane was blocked.

"What's going on?" Changbai and Changdong got out of the car respectively.

"Sir, there are people in front of us. It seems something has happened."

Changbai sent Dongrong to the front to inquire. After a while, Dongrong replied nervously, "It's... it's Zhu Manniang!"

Changbai was in a trance when he heard this name. In the past, when Changfeng was still alive, Changbai often scolded Changfeng because of Zhu Manniang. Later, Zhu Manniang disappeared with Changge, and then Changfeng was burned to death in the river. Changbai thought he would never see this woman again in his life. Now, she actually appeared in Jiying Lane...

What does she want to do?

Changbai asked Hai Chaoyun to take Old Madam Sheng through the back door and go back to the mansion to rest, while he and Changdong walked through the crowd and came to the main entrance of the Sheng Mansion.

Zhu Manniang recognized Changbai at a glance and shouted, "Look, look! This is the Sheng family. They despise my background and refuse to acknowledge me as their son. They also sent people to hunt me down all over the world! Damn it, I gave birth to the eldest grandson of your Sheng family!"

Changbai: "What nonsense are you talking about? When has my family ever hunted you down?"

Zhu Manniang: "You still don't admit it! Come quickly, come and see! My body is covered with wounds, all caused by the people they sent!" As she said that, she even lifted up her trouser legs shamelessly to show her bruised legs to everyone.

In this era, it was a very bold and shameful act for a woman to expose her skin in public. Zhu Manniang's actions only attracted more people to watch.

Changbai turned around and shouted anxiously: "This is immoral!"

Chang Dong waved his hand, and the two guards beside him leaped into the air, directly over the top of the crowd and into the center where Zhu Manniang was. They pulled her arms up from the left and right and said, "Madam, let's talk inside the mansion!"

Zhu Manniang screamed, "Help! If I go in, I'll die!"

People around were pointing and talking.

Changbai said with a gloomy face: "If you were really scared, you wouldn't have risked your reputation to come to my doorstep today. You just want money, right? How can you get the money if you don't come in and sit down and talk?"

Zhu Manniang stopped talking when she heard this. The people around her understood what she meant and saw that Zhu Manniang had indeed stopped struggling. They pointed at her and laughed, "So you are trying to extort money!"

"Don't give money to this liar!"

"You, the Sheng family, should take your eldest grandson back to raise him yourself."

Changbai didn't respond to the chatter and quickly returned home.

As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw Old Madam Sheng sitting in the middle. Hai Chaoyun was standing beside her. When he saw Changbai, he gave him an anxious look.

Changbai stepped forward quickly: "Grandma, why don't you go back to the house to rest?"

Old Madam Sheng: "I already know. This is the one that Feng'er kept outside, right?"

Changbai: “Yes.”

Old Madam Sheng: "I heard that she gave birth to a boy and a girl. Where is the boy now?"

Changbai: "My grandson is preparing to interrogate her about this matter."

Old Madam Sheng: "I'll go with you. This matter concerns the bloodline of the Sheng family, I must be here."

Changbai couldn't persuade her, so he had to ask Dongrong to bring the person up.

Zhu Manniang was dressed in rags, but her face showed no trace of aging. Old Madam Sheng sneered and said, "It seems that Madam Zhu has lived a good life these years?"

Zhu Manniang: "Humph! Your Sheng family abandoned us mother and son without caring about us. I have to perform everywhere to barely make a living. How can you be like me? You are promoted to a higher position, and you are clothed in fine clothes and fed with delicious food. I heard that my husband is dead, right? So, you got to your current position by stepping on his corpse?"

Changbai: "Nonsense! You haven't even been to my house, how can you call yourself husband and wife?"

Zhu Manniang: "Whether you recognize him or not, the eldest grandson of your Sheng family is my son after all. Now that you have become successful, you should take good care of us on behalf of my dead husband."

Old Madam Sheng said calmly, "You said that our Sheng family's eldest grandson is in your hands, but you clearly came here alone, so where is the eldest grandson?"

Zhu Manniang: "As long as you let me marry into your family and let my mother and I be included in the family tree, then Chang Ge'er will naturally come back."

Changbai: "How do we know whether what you said is true or false?"

Zhu Manniang raised her eyes and looked at Changbai sideways: "Besides trusting me, do you have any other way?"

Changbai was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up: "Shameless lunatic! Come, beat him up!"

Zhu Manniang screamed in shock: "You, the Sheng family, are actually resorting to lynching! I want to report to the police, I want to report to the police!"

Hai Chaoyun said, "You said yourself that you are our brother's mistress. If you are a mistress, you are our family's slave. We can beat you and scold you, so how can this be considered private punishment?"

Seeing the guards getting closer and closer, Zhu Manniang screamed in fear: "If you dare to touch me, you will never see Chang Ge'er again! When the time comes, the bloodline of the Sheng family will flow out, and we will see how you will explain to the dead Master Sheng!"

Hai Chaoyun whispered in the old lady's ear: "How come she knows everything about the family?"

The old lady lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "Don't rush to beat her."

Changbai signaled the guards to retreat back outside the door.

The old lady said, "Mrs. Zhu, how did you get through these years?"

Zhu Manniang: "I was alone, fleeing with Chang Ge'er, doing laundry and sewing for others to barely make ends meet."

The old lady: "But you look plump and beautiful, don't you look like you're having a hard time?"

"I... maybe I'm young, so I don't look so haggard, but you know, Chang Ge'er is such a small child, and he used to live a life of luxury. In order to support him, I really had to do all kinds of work and serve even the most difficult customers," Zhu Manniang suddenly lifted up her trouser legs, "Look, these injuries were caused by those unkind customers. These are all evidence!"

Changbai immediately covered his eyes with his sleeves, and the old lady and Hai Chaoyun also frowned.

"You don't believe it?" Zhu Manniang stood up, holding up her trouser leg, and walked towards Changbai. "Sir, please take a closer look and see if this injury is real."

Changbai was originally sitting on a chair, and he quickly stood up to hide, but the moment he stood up, Zhu Manniang suddenly grabbed his clothes. Then, a short blade fell into Manniang's hand from her sleeve. She held the hilt of the blade, showing a ferocious face, and stabbed straight at Changbai.

Changbai lay back in fear, about to be killed, when Zhu Manniang suddenly screamed "Ah!", the blade slipped out of her hand, and she fell forward.

Then, there were several more screams, and four small steel knives were seen piercing into Man Niang's legs and arms, and blood gushed out from her flesh.

Tie Ren stood at the door with a flying knife in his hand. Two rows of guards entered from her left and right and quickly arrested Man Niang.

"You dare to assassinate the Sheng family? You must be tired of living!" Tie Ren stared at Man Niang and said coldly.
